I Can Enhance My Talents Using Unlimited Skill Points Chapter 260 – Taking Over as Sect Master  

The moment Chen Yiming appeared, there was a commotion at the entrance. Everyone became fired up.

Their former fellow disciple had soared into the sky. If they could have a way to catch up, they might feel jealous. However, the reality was that the difference between them was like that between a firefly and the bright moon, leaving everyone with nothing but admiration.

“Yiming, you're finally back. I'm the sect master, Ye Jianyuan. This is the first time we've met.”

When Ye Jianyuan saw who it was, he quickly stepped forward and extended his hand enthusiastically.

“Sect Master, you're too kind.”

Chen Yiming reached out and shook his hand.

He swept his gaze across the enthusiastic crowd and said with a smile, “The Mantis Snake Sword School is the place where I started my martial arts path. The Mantis Snake Court is the place where the fruits of my martial arts achievements were reaped. After calculating the time I've spent here, I'm still a newcomer.”

Hearing this, everyone vaguely realized that Chen Yiming had been practicing martial arts at the Mantis Snake Sword School for about a year, and had only been in the Mantis Snake Court for less than half a year.

In such a short period of time, ordinary disciples would probably still be in the adjustment phase.

In the distance, Liao Hebin from the Jiangnan province's government sighed and shook his head helplessly.

The higher ups of Jiangnan province had discussed this before. Most of them had decided to offer high positions to rope in Chen Yiming. However, from the looks of it, he had a special relationship with the Myriad Phenomena Sect.

Previously, after joining the security bureau as a consultant, there was some conflict between the two sides. It was very difficult to completely repair their relationship.

Thinking of this, his head hurt.

Can't you cultivate a little slower? We're going to have to redo the materials we just prepared, and we won't be able to take it anymore.

“Yiming, you're too humble. Martial arts was never about the amount of time spent on it.”

Ye Jianyuan smiled and took off the ring on his thumb with one hand. He then placed it on Chen Yiming's thumb.

After doing this, he explained, “This ring is the symbol of the Myriad Phenomena Sect Master. The material comes from the otherworld, and there are countless benefits to wearing it for a long time.”

As soon as he said this, the crowd exploded.

Ye Jianyuan's meaning was clear. He wanted Chen Yiming to take over as the sect master immediately, not just become his successor.

The disciples of the Myriad Phenomena Sect were overjoyed. If they were changing to a stronger sect master, how could they not accept it? The higher the level of the sect, the greater the benefits for the disciples below.

It was just like how the ceiling between a local faction and a provincial faction was completely different.

It was the same for the inner court heads. A stronger sect master would bring countless cultivation resources to the Myriad Phenomena Sect, and the most direct beneficiary would be the inner court heads below the sect master.

The representatives of the other factions took the lead and applauded.

Although Ye Jianyuan's strength would decrease significantly even after he recovered from his serious injuries, losing an arm would not affect the internal force that was the core of the warrior realm.

To be able to hand over the position of the sect master when he was in his prime, it could be seen how much he was focusing on the big picture. Putting themselves in his shoes, not every leader of a faction could do it.

It could also be said that Ye Jianyuan's decision was to go with the flow. It was really not suitable for a disciple of the Myriad Phenomena Sect to have the strength of a martial master. It was hard to guarantee that other factions would not have any ill intentions.

For example, when the Jiangnan provincial security bureau had roped Chen Yiming into the 100 members plan, everyone knew that their intention was to poach him.

Only Liao Hebin from the Jiangnan province's government pulled a long face.

Once Chen Yiming took over as the sect master of the Myriad Phenomena Sect, the difficulty of dealing with him would increase again. This news had come too suddenly, and they had not discussed how to deal with this situation before.

He could only send out a message and report the situation to the province.

At this moment, it was close to evening. The red sun was setting and the night breeze was blowing.

The temperature had dropped significantly, but it didn't stop everyone from anticipating Chen Yiming's answer.

“But…”

Ye Jianyuan interrupted Chen Yiming. “There's no reason to hesitate. If you have any questions, we can sit down and discuss them.”

Since Sect Master Ye Jianyuan had already said this, Chen Yiming had no reason to reject him.

As he gave his agreement, the crowd cheered.

Most of the people present were disciples of the Myriad Phenomena Sect. They did not care much about other matters and could not control their excitement.

Some of the braver disciples climbed up the walls or the roofs of the surrounding buildings just to catch a glimpse of the handover ceremony.

This also caused the originally orderly formation to fall into chaos.

Chen Yiming couldn't help but feel flattered.

Since everyone welcomed him to take over as the sect master, he had to show some gratitude.

“I'm very happy to become the sect master of the Myriad Phenomena Sect today. Thank you all for your kindness towards me… and thank you all for coming from afar.”

Chen Yiming's voice echoed throughout the entire Myriad Phenomena Sect. Even those who had not been present at the entrance, such as the elders guarding some important positions, heard him.

Everyone fell silent as they listened to what Chen Yiming had to say.

“Recently, I've gained more understanding of our sect's cultivation techniques. I've developed a version of the technique that can be used as a transitional technique. It can greatly reduce the threshold for one to reach the next level in their cultivation.”

Hearing this, the eyes of countless disciples lit up, and their heads buzzed with various thoughts.

Among the younger generation, everyone was considered an extraordinary talent below the mountain. However, after entering the Myriad Phenomena Sect, they understood the difficulty of the path of martial arts. The disciples with relatively lower talent gradually became mediocre among those on the mountain.

For example, disciples like Su Mo'er still had a long way to go before they had the talent to master the transformation of internal force. Under normal circumstances, they could only settle for having a secondary cultivation technique.

Now that the situation had taken a turn for the better, if it was really as Chen Yiming had said, it meant that Su Mo'er had obtained another chance to break through.

The inner court heads instantly held their breaths and widened their eyes.

The threshold for mastering internal force fusion was mainly the level of one's spiritual strength. This was also the most difficult problem to resolve. It was not just about working hard and putting in the time and effort. Countless geniuses had been stuck at this bottleneck.

This was unbelievable to them.

Ye Jianyuan also gasped. This kid was really terrifying.

When he was transferred to the otherworld, he had received news that there was a genius disciple in the sect who had mastered the transformation of his internal force in a month.

Not long after, he was injured and had no choice but to return to the Myriad Phenomena Sect. Then, there was news that his disciple had caused trouble in Japan.

In the end, a few days later, there was news that this disciple had defeated a barbarian sorcerer at the master realm.

Until now, many of his seniors had worked hard their entire lives, but there was almost no free time for them to optimize their sect's cultivation techniques. This disciple could actually improve them whenever he wanted to, and greatly lowered the threshold for cultivation.

If not for this disciple's shocking achievements in the past, no one would have believed him.

The representatives from the other factions who had come to congratulate him, as well as Liao Hebin from the Jiangnan province's government, were instantly dumbfounded.

This news was too shocking. Were they taking a train or a rocket? They had suddenly jumped to a level that involved the overall situation of the human race.

Chen Yiming continued, “At the moment, there are no clues regarding the fusion of the internal force, but the rest has been completed.”

With that, he raised the peach wood sword and used the air as a canvas.

“Swish! Swish! Swish!”

His internal force turned into indestructible threads that intertwined in the air, finally forming concept diagrams.

These concept diagrams were lifelike and were not affected by the flow of air, as if they were nailed directly into the air.

“Uh… is that how it works?”

Everyone's jaws dropped again as they watched Chen Yiming draw in the air.

How strong was his control over his internal force? How strong was his internal force?

Chen Yiming completed a total of 108 concept diagrams of the 12 cultivation techniques. In the eyes of the members of the Myriad Phenomena Sect, the new concept diagrams were similar to the original, but were much simpler.

“Boom!”

Shocking!

Unbelievable!

Chen Yiming wasn't just bragging. Just as he had said, it could really lower the threshold for cultivation.

This was especially true for the outer sect disciples. Many of them were still stuck at the threshold of the warrior realm. With just a glance, their hearts began to stir.

This was more attractive than any beauty. They wished they could try to cultivate on the spot.

Ye Jianyuan and the heads of the 12 inner courts saw the long term potential. The appearance of such a transitional technique would completely change the foundation of the Myriad Phenomena Sect.

It was unknown how many disciples who had been stuck at a bottleneck would be able to break through because of this. Even though the power of the transition technique was much weaker, it would undoubtedly increase their strength by many times.

Chen Yiming looked at the commotion in the crowd and was forced to accept the thrill of showing off.

It was not that he wanted to show off, but that he wanted to use this opportunity to establish his reputation.

Once the transitional version of the cultivation technique was released, Chen Yiming's status would even surpass that of the founder of the Myriad Phenomena Sect. After all, not only would he be able to support the Myriad Phenomena Sect with his absolute strength, but he could also provide the opportunity for a breakthrough that countless people dreamed of.

“Everyone, don't be anxious. I'll sort it out later, including the steps to master the transformation of internal force,” Chen Yiming said when he saw that some of the disciples' were trying to burn the images into their minds.

“Sect Master, is what you said true?” a disciple in the crowd shouted anxiously.

Cultivation was usually carried out in a quiet environment. The reason why he had the idea of taking the risk to cultivate on the spot was because he was afraid that various conditions would be imposed in the future. For example, it could be restricted to only disciples who had reached certain requirements.

Furthermore, this disciple had cleverly addressed him as Sect Master, so no one dared to blame him after that.

“Absolutely!”

Chen Yiming gave his answer.

As soon as he finished speaking, the disciples of the Myriad Phenomena Sect erupted into enthusiastic applause.

They were so excited that their faces turned red. Some of them even nearly broke their bones from the clapping.

As Chen Yiming turned to face the enthusiastic gazes of the crowd, his heart filled with pride.

As his talent level increased, he could even modify the cultivation techniques to further lower the threshold in the future. He could even create a set of cultivation techniques for the general public.

Of course, no matter how optimized it was, for people with mediocre talent, they would have jumped out of a small pit and entered an even bigger one. There would always be a threshold that they could not cross.

Ye Jianyuan looked at Chen Yiming, who had captured everyone's attention. His heart was filled with emotions, but at the same time, he felt relieved.

He sighed at the fact that the younger generation was overtaking the older generation. He was too mediocre as the representative of the previous generation. After being in power for so many years, he could only be considered to have taken a defensive role. If not for Chen Yiming's appearance, his serious injuries would have changed the situation for the Myriad Phenomena Sect.

He was relieved that he had completed the most important responsibility of the sect master and successfully handed over the position to a suitable successor.

Moreover, the new sect master was much stronger than him. He could immediately bring about a huge positive change to the Myriad Phenomena Sect.

Night fell.

At the entrance of the Myriad Phenomena Sect, three figures walked out one after another and gathered in the dense forest in the distance.

They were Ye Hong, the head of the second court of the Hidden Sword Villa, Zhang Ruiyang, the deputy head of the Hermit Order, the largest financial group in the eastern province, and Lu Zhengyao, the head of the third pavilion of the Elder Pavilion Sect in Shanghai.

The three of them were representatives of the factions that had taken the initiative to come to the Myriad Phenomena Sect to congratulate them. Not only that, but there were also more factions behind them.

On the surface, the Daxia Kingdom had two martial arts masters, one in the north and one in the south. Both of them had heavy responsibilities that could not be easily transferred. On the other hand, Chen Yiming was not restricted in such a manner.

What was this person's personality like? What was he thinking?

Information about countless past events had already appeared on the desks of the various large factions and was being analyzed one by one.

“How could this be? This person seems to have appeared out of nowhere. I've never heard of him before.”

Ye Hong couldn't help but sigh. He still felt like he was dreaming, especially after seeing the real person.

“I don't think it's strange. After all, from the information, this person completed the transformation of his internal force in a month.

He already had the potential to become a martial master, and it just so happened that the heads of the various factions at the peak of the warrior realm had been transferred to the otherworld to establish a stronghold, so he had enough time to grow,” Zhang Ruiyang glanced in the direction of the Myriad Phenomena Sect and said in a low voice.

In his opinion, Chen Yiming had only grown up successfully because he had been lucky. Otherwise, if he had revealed his outstanding talent, he would have been assassinated long ago.

“Plenty of time to grow? In just a month or two?

Hehe! This person had probably been hiding his cultivation progress all along. When he left the mountain, he was probably already at the master realm.

It should be you hermits that are lucky. If you had rashly provoked this person, I'm afraid your corpses would have already turned cold,” Lu Zhengyao said calmly with a look of disbelief.

Zhang Ruiyang's expression froze. He paused for a moment. “You're right, but it's useless to think about it now. This person has already charged straight into the sky. His opponent is no longer someone at our level.”

“Based on what I saw just now, in my opinion, the master realm is not even this person's limit. This kind of person who can change the foundation of human martial arts is even more terrifying than a mere martial master,” Lu Zhengyao took a deep breath and said.

After he finished speaking, the forest fell silent. The three of them had their own thoughts.

In reality, just as Lu Zhengyao had said, the transitional version of the cultivation technique had been modified from the Myriad Phenomena Sect's techniques. Even if Chen Yiming didn't plan to make it public, no one would dare to complain.

It would be troublesome for the other factions in Jiangnan province and even the surrounding provinces. With this special technique, the Myriad Phenomena Sect would definitely become much more attractive to young geniuses.

Young people were the future of any faction. It was equivalent to digging out the foundation of others.

However, they all knew how serious the matter was. If they were not as strong as their opponent, they would not be able to do anything. Even if the three of them and the factions behind them joined forces, they would not be able to defeat their opponent.

In a large conference room in the Jiangnan provincial government office, the three city guardians, the mayor and deputy mayor, and the ministers of the various departments were all gathered here.

“The thing is…”

Liao Hebin from the provincial office made a detailed report on what he had seen and heard.

“How is this possible! Isn't it just a technique to master internal force?”

Song Chuansheng, one of the city guardians, stood up abruptly.

Previously, there was shocking news from the East Lake Martial Arts Academy that Chen Yiming had revealed a special cultivation technique.

Before they could come to a conclusion about the contents of the previous meeting, another piece of shocking news hit them.

“Chen Yiming only mentioned the transformation of the internal force. We can't be sure if it really exists.”

The atmosphere in the meeting room was heavy. Liao Hebin suppressed the nervousness in his heart as he spoke.

“Damn it! He doesn't care about the big picture! Is he not planning to publicize the parts above the warrior realm?” Song Chuansheng asked angrily.

This time, Liao Hebin fell silent. That was the truth. Instead of asking him, he might as well ask Chen Yiming himself.

Of course, he did not dare to reveal his true thoughts. Otherwise, Song Chuansheng, who was in a fit of anger, would go crazy. He might be sent to the hospital because of his words.

“Why didn't you talk to Chen Yiming after the incident? Why didn't you ask him about it?” one of the city guardians, Zhang Renhou, asked in disappointment.

“As soon as the matter ended, Chen Yiming was pulled away by Ye Jianyuan. I asked the inner court heads of the Myriad Phenomena Sect, but they didn't know the situation either,” Liao Hebin explained.

Zhang Renhou thought about it. It was mainly because of their mistakes.

As the head of the provincial office, Liao Hebin was considered one of the higher-ups in Jiangnan province. However, compared to the current status of Chen Yiming, he was too inconspicuous.

If one of the three city guardians went, things would be much easier.

However, there was another problem. As the three most powerful people in Jiangnan province, if they went to congratulate him, they would appear to be of a lower rank than him, which would cause more trouble for their future cooperation.

“I heard that your daughter has a good relationship with Chen Yiming?” Wang Ronghui, one of the city guards, asked Xie Jimin.

When Xie Jimin, the bureau chief of the security bureau, heard this, his expression turned bitter.

They did not have a good relationship. There was already some conflict between them that had yet to be resolved. The last time he asked his daughter, Xie Weilin, to pass on the message, it had already made the other party a little unhappy.

To come knocking on his door again in such a short time, this was not how they could become on good terms.

“Thank you, bureau chief. Please take the big picture into consideration,” Zhang Renhou added.

Immediately, all the gazes in the meeting room were focused on Xie Jimin, forcing him to agree.
