I Can Enhance My Talents Using Unlimited Skill Points Chapter 330 – Mountain of Flesh

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

Time flew by, and another month had passed.

Chen Yiming had left behind a huge spiritual crystal in the air. Countless people were able to study the crystal meditation technique for free. The effect it caused was only just beginning.

In the meeting room of the provincial government office, the secretary, Cao Xianghua, was reporting to Wang Ronghui about the changes the crystal meditation technique had brought to Jiangnan province in the past month.

Wang Ronghui nodded from time to time, indicating for the secretary to continue.

In front of Cao Xianghua was a stack of materials with more than 100 pages. Beside it was a large pot of luohan fruit tea.

The door to the meeting room was closed from morning to afternoon. Cao Xianghua coughed to clear his throat and took a sip of tea to moisten his throat before continuing.

Near evening, “Xiao Cao, you've worked hard. Go back and rest well,” Wang Ronghui said after hearing the report for nearly the entire day.

“It's nothing! It's nothing! This is my job,” Cao Xianghua quickly replied.

As one of the people who was in charge of handling the information, he knew how complicated the job was.

The sudden increase in the number of warriors caused a huge increase in the number of conflicts. The reshuffling of the martial arts factions and the re-establishment of standards for public security…

Compared to the actual staff and Wang Ronghui, who needed to make a decision, the contribution he made as a secretary was undoubtedly much lower.

After Cao Xianghua left, Wang Ronghui's work was still not over.

He flipped through the documents again. As he gave his comments on each report, he fell into deep thought.

The combination of the crystal meditation technique and the trial grounds had brought about too many changes in the martial arts world. This was a change that spanned across generations.

Other than the invasion of the otherworld, there were no other similar examples in recorded history.

For example, even if the humans successfully established a long-term stronghold in the otherworld, the immediate effect would be limited.

In the long term, there would be an endless stream of martial arts resources from the otherworld to provide for the increasing number of martial arts practitioners.

When he flipped to the statistics of the number of people above the warrior realm in the major cities of Jiangnan province, Wang Ronghui stopped on this page and frowned as he looked at the numbers on it.

In Jiangnan City, there were 70,345 people above the warrior realm.

In Jiangdu City, there were 34,067 people above the warrior realm.

In Fanghua City, there were 9,045 people above the warrior realm.

In Creek Mountain City, there were 2,013 people above the warrior realm.

He recalled the corresponding number from when Chen Yiming had ended the war with the treants.

The change was about 10 times the original number.

What did 10 times mean?

This was not a large-scale migration of ordinary people, nor was it a huge increase in the number of people in the disciple realm. It was not even a foundation for Jiangnan province in the next 100 years.

This increase involved humans who had mastered supernatural powers.

Internal force was the most important dividing line on the path of martial arts previously.

Taking this step was like a bird learning to fly. It was like a fish walking on land, like a snake turning into a dragon. It was a qualitative change from the inside out.

Wang Ronghui took a deep breath and recalled a time further back before Chen Yiming's rise.

At that time, the number of warriors in the major cities in Jiangnan province was about five times lower.

In other words, 40% of the people in the warrior realm had migrated here from other provinces in the Daxia Kingdom. Jiangnan province had relied on Chen Yiming to attract many martial arts experts to move over from other provinces.

“In just a year! 50 times the number!” Wang Ronghui muttered to himself, seemingly in a daze.

What he saw was not simply a good change, but also a new and serious problem.

As the saying went, a warrior broke the rules by using martial arts.

With such a huge number of warriors, if they could not make proper arrangements, at best, the price of goods in the province would increase exponentially. At worst, there would be internal strife over resources.

After 10 to 20 minutes, the meeting room fell silent.

“We can't be rash about this,” Wang Ronghui suddenly shook his head and muttered.

After giving the “undetermined” comment on this page, he flipped to the next page.

In a house in Jiang City, in the middle of the Daxia Kingdom, above the entrance hung a plaque with the words “West Mountain Martial Arts Alliance”.

The West Mountain Martial Arts Alliance was an alliance formed by more than 10 martial arts schools. Originally, each of them had a warrior supporting them. After the alliance was formed, the scale was close to a medium-sized martial arts faction.

Many such alliances had appeared recently, not only in Jiang City, but also in the other cities in the Daxia Kingdom.

The reason for this was that even if the martial arts factions in the other provinces of the Daxia Kingdom did not move their bases to Jiangnan province, the trial grounds was still a place they had to go every once in a while.

However, Jiangnan province had absorbed a lot of martial arts talent from their neighboring provinces. In addition, a lot of improvement in the martial arts world was brought about by the trial grounds and the crystal meditation technique.

This caused the average level of martial arts in Jiangnan province to surpass that of the other provinces by a large margin, causing an unprecedented amount of internal competition. A trend of “bigger is better” swept through the entire country.

Previously, the martial arts schools did not even dare to enter the trial grounds if they did not have a warrior to support them, even if it meant that they would not be able to keep up with the changing times.

Inside the house, more than 10 middle-aged men and women were discussing the crystal meditation technique.

In front of them was a high-definition television, and the image was paused on a huge spiritual crystal in the air above the river. More than 10 drawings were hung on the left wall, and more than 10 drawings were also hung on the right wall.

The hand-drawn pictures on the left gave off a natural and comfortable feeling, while the hand-drawn pictures on the right were clearly not on the same level.

“Old Wu, what the hell are you drawing? You're just like a primary school student. Are you trying to trick me on purpose?” a middle-aged woman said jokingly.

“Alright, alright! It doesn't count. I'll tear it up now.”

Old Wu snorted when he heard this. He was angered by the teasing and was about to get up to make a move.

Most ordinary martial arts practitioners believed in their own strength. Few of them did things like drawing. It was already good that they could shrink the huge spiritual crystal while preserving the proportions.

It had to be known that Old Wu had used his brain a lot these three days. He had not had such a hard time in all the years he had been on the path of martial arts.

“It's just a joke!”

“It's just a joke!”

The others quickly held Old Wu down, but they could not suppress the smile on their faces. However, no one dared to joke about Old Wu's drawings anymore.

The drawing on the left was made by a martial arts expert and a master painter in Jiang City. The West Mountain Martial Arts Alliance had paid a huge price to buy it.

Old Wu had the most outstanding martial arts talent in the West Mountain Martial Arts Alliance. Therefore, a month ago, he was recommended by everyone to go to Jiangnan City to learn the crystal meditation technique.

Under the combined efforts of the West Mountain Martial Arts Alliance, the videos taken on the spot, Old Wu's drawings and the master's drawings were combined to prevent them from practicing the crystal meditation technique wrongly.

After a month, other than Old Wu, two more people in the West Mountain Martial Arts Alliance had mastered the crystal meditation technique.

The others who had yet to master it were also making more than 90% progress. All they lacked was the fine details of the technique. It would not be long before they could master it.

These people who were originally just school heads did not expect to have a chance to break through to the warrior realm after their potential was exhausted.

However, after the crystal meditation technique appeared, the situation had changed. It was still an extravagant hope to reach the peak of the warrior realm, but they were confident that they could control the transformation of their internal force.

In a forest dozens of kilometers away from East Lake City, the dense forest was where mutant beasts usually hid. However, while the dense forest was still the same as before, there were no signs of mutant beasts at all.

In the past month, the wilderness in Jiangnan province had undergone another huge change.

Ever since the invasion of the otherworld, countless wild beasts had evolved into mutant beasts and occupied territory that originally belonged to humans. Humans were forced to defend the city.

Ever since Chen Yiming rose to prominence, the increase in the overall level of martial arts in Jiangnan province had greatly reduced the danger in the wilderness. Mutant beasts were no longer a threat.

At this moment, the number of warriors had increased by 10 times. Everyone needed mutant beast meat to replenish their energy for their daily cultivation.

This way, the mutant beasts in Jiangnan province had completely become the prey, and they were almost extinct.

“Brother, I really feel that I've improved a lot this time. After entering the trial grounds again, I'll definitely be able to quickly master the transformation of my wind-based internal force.”

Chen Yingying fired three arrows at the same time, hitting three huge rocks in the distance.

With a loud explosion, dust filled the air, and the wind blades cut through many of the surrounding trees.

Chen Yiming had his hands behind his head and was strolling along at the side. He glanced at his excited sister. She seemed to have become a little arrogant after mastering the crystal meditation technique.

He gave her a heavy blow by saying, “I only entered the library of the Myriad Phenomena Sect once back then. I progressed along the path of martial arts after that. I didn't need any miracle blood or crystal meditation techniques at all…”

At the same time, Chen Yiming rolled his eyes in disdain. He thought to himself, “Chen Yingying, you're still too naive.”

As expected, after Chen Yingying heard this, she no longer felt that mastering the crystal meditation technique was something to celebrate.

Not long after, a team of adventurers walked over from afar.

A pig-type mutant beast was screaming. Its bones had been broken and it was tied up and being carried by four people.

“Captain, this can't go on. In the past, there was no need to bring the mutant beasts back alive.”

“We really have to make a change. The wilderness here doesn't look like it should be at all. We only caught one mutant beast after half a day. This amount of profit is unacceptable.”

“I think we can take more risks and enter the otherworld to hunt. We can plan the time to go back and forth between the trial grounds and the stronghold in the otherworld.”

“Our team isn't that strong, right? We might as well go to the wilderness in the surrounding provinces.”

The group discussed as they walked.

There were many other adventurers that were forced to make changes because the competition in Jiangnan province had intensified.

“Brother, the miracle blood will be used up soon.”

When the two of them and the adventure team walked past each other, Chen Yingying suddenly thought of something.

“Got it,” Chen Yiming replied.

On the surface, he remained calm and collected, but he was secretly feeling a little regretful.

If he had known earlier, he would have asked Wu Weiguo for more miracle blood when he visited the last time. That way, he would not be facing such a predicament now.

After seeing the other party at what was equivalent to her naked state, and since he had no interest in someone like Wu Susu, it would be very awkward for them to meet again.

If it really didn't work out, he could only find someone else to get it for him.

In the trial grounds, teams of adventurers could be seen everywhere, and there were many more people than before.

It was said that there were no longer enough mutant monsters in the outer regions for them to hunt. A team of adventurers had thought of a way to capture mutant beasts from the wilderness and drive them deep into the trial grounds so that they could be possessed by the ghosts and become deformed monsters.

The principle behind the formation of ghosts was still a mystery. However, one thing was certain: most of them would not be too far away from the corpses.

This also caused the inner area to be gloomy and gray. A large number of ghosts and monsters were gathered there, making it seem like a real ghost realm.

After arranging for the spiritual figure to secretly follow Chen Yingying, Chen Yiming walked straight to the inner area.

Along the way, whether it was the deformed creatures that smelled the scent of living people or the ghosts hiding in the shadows, those who dared to treat Chen Yiming as prey would be reduced to dust the moment they appeared.

Looking at the Skill Points requirement on the talent panel that was decreasing from time to time, his eyes lit up with excitement.

After leaving the ghosts alone for more than a month, their numbers must have increased a lot. He planned to harvest them all today.

He ate the meat while all the other adventurers drank the soup. This was what he had planned from the start.

From the outer area to the inner area, some martial arts experts began to sense that something was amiss in the trial grounds. There was a path where the sinister and cold aura seemed to have encountered a blazing sun.

A wave of heat spread out in all directions. Along the way, the deformed monsters and ghosts seemed to have encountered their natural enemy and fled for their lives like humans who had encountered deformed monsters in the past.

“That… is an indescribably huge amount of blood essence!”

A swordsman in a long robe stood on a rock and looked at the mist in the air along the abnormal path.

He could not see it clearly, but he was sure that it was not due to a deformed monster or ghost. It must be an extremely powerful creature. He did not know if it was a human, a mutant beast, or a creature from the otherworld that had come from an unknown space-travel passage.

“Retreat first!”

the captain of an elite adventure team said in a low voice.

With his sharp sense of danger, he had always been able to make the right choice.

When the other team members heard this, no one objected. No one asked why. This was the trust that he had earned from the team members by making the right choice time and time again.

Soon, the elite exploration team retreated to the edge of the trial grounds before stopping. They found a high spot and looked around. If the situation was not right, they would retreat immediately.

When Chen Yiming arrived in front of the 10,000-meter-long corpse, the ghosts in the inner area had already summoned the deformed monsters and fused them into one.

What awaited him was a mountain of flesh, which had turned into a monster.

“It only took a month for it to develop to the size of those three treants.” Chen Yiming sized up the huge monster in front of him.

He was indeed a little surprised. He did not expect that there would be such a hidden danger after killing all the ghosts underground in the otherworld.

Chen Yiming was puzzled. “That's strange! It seems that the powerful creatures in the otherworld all have the ability to split themselves.”

Because there were too few specimens, it was impossible to confirm whether he had encountered them by chance. Or perhaps it was the truth, and this was an innate ability of all creatures from the otherworld.

This innate splitting ability could be activated when one was strong enough.

At the same time, he was glad that he had only left the ghosts alone for a little over a month. If it was a mountain of flesh that had been accumulated over a year, even Chen Yiming would be a little afraid.

Its size might not be just a little scary, but it would scare even him.
