I Can Enhance My Talents Using Unlimited Skill Points Chapter 379

Published at 18th of October 2022 08:31:35 AM

Just as the war weapon from the black tide trapped and killed the two creatures at the fusion realm, shocking the blue planet, Chen Yiming returned home to East Lake City.

Father Chen, Mother Chen, and Chen Yingying were all waiting in the living room, their faces filled with worry.

Although they knew that Chen Yiming had escaped from the encirclement set up by the war weapon, they were still worried that he had been severely injured.

After all, the enemies that he had fought to a draw earlier had been trapped and killed by the black barrier. Therefore, it was impossible for them not to be worried.

“Don't worry, it's not a big problem. The breakthrough I achieved recently gave me the confidence to deal with the war weapon.”

Chen Yiming shrugged and revealed a relaxed manner.

“That's good, that's good.”

Father Chen and Mother Chen heaved a sigh of relief.

Chen Yiming was their only son. As parents, how could they not want their son to be safe and sound, and extend their bloodline to the next generation?

This was especially true for Father Chen. Although he did not say it out loud, he had been thinking about how to get his son to have more children.

Back then, their family was running a restaurant in a village in the city. Their two children were already under a lot of pressure. At that time, they did not have the means to survive. However, the situation for their next generation would already be very different.

Chen Yingying looked at Chen Yiming in admiration.

Actually, she rarely had the chance to see Chen Yiming make a move with her own eyes. She had only heard about it from the news and rumors.

The battle on the surface of the sea this time had shocked the entire blue planet. Even from thousands of kilometers away, one could see the huge fireworks exploding in the air, and the sound echoed for thousands of kilometers.

Jiangnan province was the best place to watch the battle. Anyone could stand on the rooftop of a building and watch the entire battle that was on a scale that could destroy the world.

“Is he still human? Even a god may only be able to do so much!”

At that time, every time a large explosion occurred, the shock waves formed were much more terrifying than a nuclear explosion. Seeing such a devastating battle, the people all over the world had similar thoughts and were filled with shock.

The times had changed too quickly. In the past, the martial masters born from small countries were referred to as gods. However, compared to the situation now, the martial masters were actually not much different from ants.

If they were really on the battlefield on the surface of the sea, they would instantly be reduced to ashes. It was impossible for them to put up any resistance.

Not long after.

Chen Yiming returned to his room and closed the door.

The spiritual figure had upgraded to the Level-6 swordsmanship talent and broke through to the fusion realm, helping him turn the situation around. However, he had yet to study it carefully or familiarize himself with the new power at the fusion realm.

“In this battle, the large array set up by the bone beast around the world helped the spiritual figure complete its final accumulation and break through to the fusion realm in one go.”

Chen Yiming sat cross-legged on the bed with the divine sword formed by the spiritual figure in front of him.

The black obelisks and the formation that surrounded the human city were special products created by combining spiritual power with the mysterious symbols.

They were similar to spiritual beings, and when they were destroyed by the spiritual figure, they were converted into the Skill Points he needed to upgrade his talents.

“The reason why the bone beast and the giant on the warhorse couldn't break through the tentacles' encirclement was because they couldn't fight against the endless shadows. Therefore, even though they had the Undying Mark to allow them to constantly recover, they were still chased down and beaten up.”

Chen Yiming sneered. He didn't have a good impression of the two creatures that had tried to sacrifice all the humans to block the moon's blockade so that they could break out of it.

He did not think of helping them from outside the black barrier when they were in a desperate situation to keep the two powerful combatants alive since they could help to break out of the encirclement in the future.

In theory, because the creatures from the blue planet and the dark forest world had a common enemy, the black tide, they should have worked together to break out of the encirclement.

“Those who are not of the same race will definitely have different intentions, especially in the dark forest world, which is completely ruled by the law of the jungle. The huge eye did not appear from the beginning to the end. Clearly, there are many conflicts among them and they don't trust each other.”

Chen Yiming shook his head.

Even if he wanted to save them, he should not be the one to do so. Had all the creatures at the fusion realm who had come from the dark forest world to take refuge here and try to break through the blockade revealed themselves?

There were definitely others who were secretly watching, such as the existence behind the ice crystal-like hair. It was impossible to predict how many of them were in hiding. They might be waiting for the others to attack first.

“The spiritual figure is completely capable of resisting the attacks from the shadows. At the same time, it has the ability to revive and is not afraid of being trapped and killed.

The tentacles of the war weapon transformed into a different form. After trapping and killing the bone beast and the giant on the warhorse, there must be a reason why they did not continue to cause trouble for the spiritual figure.

This way, I shouldn't be the one feeling anxious. Before the war weapon is fully developed, humans will have the advantage.”

Chen Yiming smiled.

On the blue planet, the humans were under the threat of the black tide on the surface, but there were also creatures at the level of the fusion realm that were secretly eyeing them.

It could be said that they were caught in the middle and could be wiped out at any moment. Chen Yiming could at most protect himself, but he couldn't protect all of humanity.

He originally needed to wait until around the Spring Festival, but now that the bone beast had taken the initiative to attack him, the spiritual figure had taken the chance to break through to the fusion realm.

The power of the system's enhancement was fully displayed at this moment. He was not afraid of any enemy at the same level, and the shadows that defeated the bone beast were also defeated by the spiritual figure with one strike.

In this situation where the black tide had descended to harvest the negative emotions of the creatures on the blue planet, the humans had suddenly become one of the factions that wanted to break out of the encirclement. The side that was more powerful would have the upper hand.

At this thought, Chen Yiming's gaze became firm.

“In the long term, we definitely won't be able to stay on the blue planet any longer. Humans will definitely embark on the path to find a suitable new home. However, in the process of breaking through the blockade, whoever has the most power will be able to control their own fate better. The spiritual figure has already taken the lead.”

His combat strength was affected by his two talents, which were the second and third talents he had added. Leveling them up required more Skill Points than for the spiritual figure.

With the help of the spiritual figure, could Chen Yiming's main body survive until he broke through to the fusion realm? It was hard to say.

Since the main goal of the black tide was to harvest the negative emotions of the creatures on the blue planet, not to kill all of them at once, he had a chance of survival.

Chen Yiming turned to look out the window. His gaze seemed to have passed through the space-travel passage and landed on the otherworld.

“I don't know how long it will take for the war weapon to reach its complete stage. Before I break out of the encirclement, I'll let the spiritual figure make a big move. The black tide can harvest the dark forest world, and I can also squeeze out all the value from the dark forest world.”

He had not forgotten the 10,000-meter-long corpse dug out from the mysterious underground space. It was still unknown if it had been buried for too long, or perhaps there was some secret deep underground that no one knew about.

Anyway, the spiritual energy released by the 10,000-meter-long corpse had greatly improved the cultivation environment in Jiangnan province. This was the main reason for its title of the “elite district”.

At this thought, the figure of the huge eye appeared in Chen Yiming's mind.

“With just me and the spiritual figure, there's definitely not enough time. I have to find someone who is familiar with the area to lead the way, preferably someone who is rebellious.”

At the level of the fusion realm, the spiritual figure was undoubtedly standing at a position that exceeded the limits of the realm. Then, as long as he captured someone like the huge eye, these problems would be mostly resolved.

He had more power, and the other party would have to cooperate even if they were unwilling, unless they wanted to die.

If they really did not want to live anymore, he could kill them with one strike and find another target. After all, the blue planet was only so big. It was impossible for them to hide forever.

On the day the battle on the surface of the sea ended, the blue planet fell into a strange silence. It was as if there was no sound at all. However, there was a clear change among the creatures from the dark forest world.

Chen Yiming quickly arranged for the spiritual figure to secretly investigate the hiding place of the huge eye and the others.

“There's hope for the space plan. We can definitely survive!”

“Chen Yiming sliced through the giant on the warhorse, and is not afraid of facing the war weapon of the black tide. We humans will never give up. We can control our own fate.”

The rumors started to spread quickly, and countless people were singing praises about the outcome of the battle.

Most people didn't know the true face behind the name “Chen Yiming”, but it had long since become a symbol. It represented the strongest human, the path of martial arts, and the turning point of the new era.

In a short period of time, he had cultivated to the point where he could withstand the black tide from outer space and kill the strongest creatures from the otherworld on the other side of the space-travel passage.

How terrifying was this? If not for the fact that the truth was right in front of them, the world would definitely think that this was all a work of fiction.

On the snow mountain, the snow beast fell into a deep sleep again. It was as if the matter of breaking through the blockade no longer had anything to do with it and it had the thought of trying to avoid this disaster altogether.

In the dark forest world, there was a lake of blood with bubbles rising from it.

The blood lake covered an area about 10 kilometers wide. No creature dared to approach it, not even the mutant creatures. This was because this was a strange place that was equivalent to a forbidden area.

Once one got too close, their mind would be affected by the killing intent. At best, they would attack their companions crazily. At worst, they would commit suicide and let their blood fuse into the blood lake.

It could be said to be a dangerous place. Without reaching a certain level, one would not dare to investigate the reason behind its appearance.

“Ah!”

At this moment, a scream of extreme pain echoed above the blood lake and spread far and wide.

The mutant creatures passing by in the distance immediately stopped in their tracks although they were not in full control of their own will. This was the result of the control of the mysterious existence behind them.

But usually, the mutant creatures still had some of their own will, so they naturally knew how to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages.

Not long after, the screams gradually stopped. The blood lake quickly shrank in the blink of an eye and turned into a giant riding a warhorse.

“I didn't expect it to be so bad this time. The bone beast's Undying Mark was completely destroyed. Fortunately, my trump card has not been exposed.”

The giant on the warhorse let out a long sigh in his heart.

When it tried to break through the blockade previously, it had been ambushed by the huge mouth on the blockade, which had bitten off half of its body, and its Undying Mark had been broken in half.

Half of it entered the mouth along with half of its body and was completely devoured.

Then, by chance, he encountered the warhorse, which was called “Nightmare”. Its essence, energy, and spirit were highly compatible with the warhorse.

Unexpectedly, the remaining half of the Undying Mark had actually helped the warhorse break through to the fusion realm. At the same time, the Undying Mark inexplicably repaired itself as it broke through.

This was a situation that had never occurred before. Most of the creatures at the fusion realm in the dark forest world relied on their own talent to break through from the inscription realm.

Therefore, it was very difficult for the main body to completely comprehend the Undying Mark that it had obtained after successfully breaking through. The abilities brought by one's talents could only be used by themselves and could not be taught to others.

Those who relied on their talent to transform would not be able to recover from the loss of half of the Undying Mark.

This was the special thing about the giant on the warhorse. It had taken the initiative to split the Undying Mark into two again, and also split the warhorse's Undying Mark into two.

As expected, the two halves were able to fuse into one and be controlled by one will. Having two Undying Marks was equivalent to splitting one's mind into two, but there were no problems so far.

Usually, one of the Undying Marks would manifest as a lake of blood that was kept hidden all the time. The terrifying lake of blood had always been known as a dangerous forbidden area.

The other Undying Mark was active in the outside world. When the giant on the warhorse returned, it caused a huge shock in a large area around the blood lake.

The giant rode the warhorse back to the Antarctic Continent. It quickly contacted the firebird and asked it to come over.

“The war weapon had retreated back into the oceanic trench and is no longer active.”

The firebird suppressed the flames on its body and lowered its head. Its missing eyeball was intact again as it reported the situation to the giant.

On the surface, the firebird was controlled by the bone beast. Now that the bone beast was dead, the giant felt that since the firebird was one of their subordinates, it should still listen to its orders.

“It seems that forcefully using the black barrier ability will definitely affect the progress of the war weapon's completion. There will be more time for us to break through the blockade.”

The warhorse neighed at the firebird, as if to intimidate it into telling the truth. When the giant heard this, it visibly relaxed.

The firebird was shocked and almost thought that it had exposed itself.

“The bone beast's collection was also brought to this planet. It's now safely buried in a hidden place. I'll bring you there to get it now.”

“Collection?”

At the mention of the bone beast's collection, the warhorse stopped neighing. The giant thought for a moment and said seriously, “The bone beast's collection is temporarily sealed away. Other than you, does anyone else know the location?”

“The three-eyed sea demon also knew about it, but it was already killed by the strongest human,” the firebird replied fearfully, afraid that the warhorse would devour it.

They both had talents related to flames, and the warhorse was a creature at the fusion realm. The firebird temporarily did not have the ability to fight it, so it could not provoke the other party.

“The strongest human.”

The giant frowned, as if recalling an unwanted memory.

With its strength restricted to the same level, it could not defeat the strongest human in the inscription realm. It was even cut in half by the other party's divine sword.

Although it was not killed by that strike in the end, and the Undying Mark was also destroyed by the war weapon, it was still an unspeakable stain, a mental scar, and a failure.

However, even if it wanted to get back at him, with the giant and the warhorse fighting two against one, it did not have much confidence. The divine sword in the other party's hand could break through the shadow barrier with a single strike.

This was something that it, its warhorse, and the bone beast could not do. Otherwise, they would not have been completely trapped and killed. In the end, they were destroyed dozens of times, exhausting the recovery ability of the Undying Mark.

“Go and monitor the movements of the human cities. Be careful and report to me if there are any changes.”

After a long time, the giant gave the firebird its next mission. The matter of getting back at the strongest human was temporarily put aside.

“Understood,”

The firebird flapped its wings and flew away from the Antarctic.

Along the way, a large amount of ice melted and fell into the sea. The remaining mutant beasts on this continent were frightened and hid away in fear.

The sun rose and set, and another day passed.

Chen Yiming had reflected on the experience he had gained from this battle. A guest came to visit and claimed to be under the orders of the huge eye.

The person who had arrived was a middle-aged man in black. He was wearing a bamboo hat, and a net had fallen from it, making it impossible to see his face clearly.

He removed his bamboo hat. There were ripples in his eyes, and spiritual fluctuations that were similar to the huge eye proved his identity.

“Dear strongest human, the army of mutant creatures has already gathered at the entrances of the various space-travel passages. They can attack this planet at any moment,”

the middle-aged man bowed slightly as he said respectfully.

From the battle on the surface of the sea, the huge eye knew that Chen Yiming was already the strongest individual after the black tide.

It was not even an exaggeration to say that even though they were all at the same level, it was not strange for this human to be able to fight multiple enemies at once. This was a form of respect and fear brought about by his strength.

“If only we could work together with the strongest human and break through the blockade.” In a dark and damp place, the huge eye emitted a flickering light.

The scene of the middle-aged man meeting Chen Yiming was vaguely displayed in front of it. It didn't arrange for a blue-haired and white-eyed man to go. The huge eye also had its own concerns.

Although the snow beast had not been very interested in breaking through the blockade, it had been forced to choose a partner when it heard that the bone beast and the giant on the warhorse had joined forces.

It was hard for the huge eye to tell what it was really thinking. A large number of creatures from the dark forest world had once joined forces to break through the blockade, but something strange happened along the way.

The root of these changes was the lack of trust between them. Naturally, there would be no good outcome in the end.

However, the caution against each other was the result of the law of the jungle that was the rule in the dark forest world for countless years. It was definitely not something that could be let go of easily.

“Is there an existence beyond the fusion realm among the mutant creatures?”

Chen Yiming said calmly, as if he had everything planned out and was not concerned at all.

At these higher cultivation realms, the improvement brought about by each level was much greater than all the previous levels combined.

Therefore, the advantage of numbers was gradually lost. The small fries at the lower levels were mostly just used for creating chaos and occupying territory. The outcome depended on the competition between the strongest individuals on the two sides.

“I don't think so, but there's a complete war weapon in the depths of the sea over there.”

The middle-aged man lowered his head and replied according to the huge eye's instructions.

“Deep in the sea?”

“A complete war weapon?”

Chen Yiming immediately recalled the abnormal situation in the sea in the otherworld. It turned out that the situation was similar to that on the blue planet. The war weapon used by the black tide when it invaded the world would be placed deep in the sea.

At the same time, he communicated with the spiritual figure and tried to use the huge eye's ability to control one's will from a distance to determine its exact location.

“A complete war weapon has the ability to easily trap and kill creatures at the fusion realm. Therefore, ever since the last black tide invaded the dark forest world, everyone has been in hiding,” the middle-aged man continued.

Chen Yiming snorted and said with a smile, “The range of activity of that war weapon should be limited to the dark forest world, right? Otherwise, how could you guys have held back? How could you guys even scheme against each other?”

This sentence revealed the fact that the huge eye had left its companions in the lurch and only cared about hiding itself, causing it to lose the combat strength of two creatures at the fusion realm.

The middle-aged man shivered. The pressure from the person in front of him was too great. With this snort, his legs went weak and he almost fell to the ground.

He quickly asked in his heart how he should answer this question. This was not part of what the huge eye had briefed him about in advance.

After a while, a voice sounded in the spiritual world. The middle-aged man in the outside world hurriedly said, “It was indeed like this in the past, but it's just like how the war weapon suddenly used the ability of darkness yesterday. When it is necessary, there can be unexpected changes at any time.”

“What exactly are you trying to say?”

Chen Yiming frowned. If not for the fact that the spiritual figure was still trying to locate the huge eye, he would already have killed the human in front of him.

The middle-aged man brought the topic back to what he had prepared in advance and said, “The dark forest world had once set up a formation covering their entire world under the guidance of the goddess. It used the power of the entire world to destroy the war weapon and break the blockade set up by the black tide.

Although it failed in the end and we were forced to open a space-travel passage, the foundation of the world-level still remains buried deep underground.

The power of the blockade on this planet is far inferior to that on the dark forest world. There's only one blockade, while there are three in the small forest world. Therefore, as long as we find the foundations of the formation, we have absolute confidence in breaking through the blockade.”

“Goddess?”

For some reason, Chen Yiming subconsciously thought of the female spirit in the ring.

Only one space-travel passage connecting the blue planet and the dark forest world had been opened. The other space-travel passages must have appeared along with this first space-travel passage.

Just like the chain reaction caused when part of a mirror shattered, the space where the blue planet was connected to the dark forest world was filled with many holes.

To be honest, when he heard that the foundation of the world-level formation was buried deep underground, Chen Yiming was indeed a little tempted. However, he wasn't concerned about the foundation, but the mysterious underground space in the dark forest world.

If he could upgrade his talents and break through to the fusion realm before the war weapon was completed, with his physique that far exceeded the realm he was in, not only would he increase his chances of breaking out of the encirclement, but his own safety would also be more guaranteed.

At that time, he might be able to break through the blockade with just his strength.

The middle-aged man allowed Chen Yiming to think for a moment before continuing, “Back then, we participated in the setting up of the world-level formation and had special methods to avoid detection by the war weapon. I believe that with our cooperation, we will definitely be able to set up the world-level formation on this planet again. When that time comes…”

Before he could finish speaking, the ripples in the middle-aged man's eyes disappeared. He fell to the ground as if he had lost his soul.

“Is he taking the initiative to cut off the control over his will?”

Chen Yiming didn't choose to communicate immediately. Instead, he waited quietly for the spiritual figure to send back a message.

Not long after.

The figure in his mind: The huge eye escaped after being alerted in advance. It is located in a forest in the Middle East, and there are many human factions around it.
