I Can Enhance My Talents Using Unlimited Skill Points Chapter 394

Published at 25th of October 2022 11:25:41 AM

“Kill!”

When the Gobi Desert and a portion of the oasis were sent flying into the sky, Chen Yiming felt relieved. The power of the world that was squeezing his body crazily had disappeared.

The battle of attrition had reached a certain point. Without any further orders, the demon god took the initiative to give up on the previous stalling method.

Chen Yiming's blood essence surged, and all the demons that tried to approach him were burned to a crisp. He stomped on the ground and threw out countless punches at the same time.

Before his body arrived, the demon god had already experienced what Chen Yiming had experienced previously. Countless fist shadows created an effect similar to the overwhelming pressure.

“Boom!”

Chen Yiming's aura didn't decrease at all, and his body was unbelievably terrifying.

The demon god stood rooted to the ground and could not move. Countless fist shadows attacked from all directions, and its entire body began to crack. Its materialized spiritual power could not withstand it anymore.

With a loud bang, the demon god exploded under the attack of the countless fist shadows.

A large amount of spiritual power collapsed, indicating that the negative energy in the devil's den had decreased further.

“The inner world, the core cube in the demon god's body.”

Seeing that the cube was still intact, Chen Yiming didn't show any mercy and teleported over.

This time, he used a different method of attack. With a kick, cracks appeared in the air. Immediately after, a figure attacked it from all directions.

In the depths of the earth, the maze structure in the devil's den had long been destroyed, but the battle was not over.

As Chen Yiming started to kick at the cube crazily, invisible ripples either enlarged the pit or soared into the sky. More and more thunderous explosions rang out.

The phenomenon of the blood essence illuminating the void disappeared, and in its place was the dark forest world shaking slightly.

This was the result of the combined attacks. In the history of the dark forest world, there had never been an intense battle even when the black tide invaded. The native terrifying creatures were too weak in comparison.

The world-level formation did not count. It was not a continuous battle, but an attack that involved mobilizing the power of the world.

“Roar!”

With an indignant roar, the remaining negative energy in the devil's den began to quickly gather in the cube, causing it to shine brightly. The appearance of the demon god began to form again.

It was too tragic. The demon god clearly had a higher level of power, but after giving up the initiative once, it was forced to retreat step by step.

Of course, Chen Yiming wouldn't give the demon god a chance to catch its breath. In any case, every part of his body could withstand the pressure of exchanging injuries for landing a powerful melee attack.

At this moment, it was as if he was bathing in an energy furnace. His heart was emitting an endless stream of blood, and the surrounding walls were filled with destruction.

His aura could still be maintained at its peak, and his speed was too fast. It was as if he had a clone. The figures used their fists and kicks to destroy the appearance that the demon god had reformed bit by bit.

This time, the unwilling roars were gone. Only the glowing cube was left in the devil's den, and the light was showing signs of dimming.

“The inner world? That seems to be all it is.”

After Chen Yiming shattered the demon god's counterattack, he was even more confident, and his fighting spirit became stronger. This was a baptism for his soul.

After gaining an absolute advantage, he did not hesitate to exchange injuries for a stronger melee attack. He kicked out, not caring that his foot would also be blown to pieces.

This was because in the blink of an eye, the shattered leg would have recovered. This was the recovery speed that came from having an independent miniature Undying Seal in each cell.

“Boom, boom, boom…”

At this point in the battle, the cube no longer tried to counterattack. It seemed to have become a sandbag for Chen Yiming's attacks.

If you can shatter the inner world, continue attacking. I'll change from offense to defense.

Ever since the mushroom that covered the sky fell onto the dark forest world, the international video conference had been ongoing.

In addition, human intelligence personnel continued to enter and leave the space-travel passages all over the world to gather information about the dark forest world.

At this moment, the atmosphere in the video conference was heavy. There was anxiety, unease, and nervousness. The leaders of the various countries, including the top leader of the Daxia Kingdom, had their impression of the intensity of the battle forcefully refreshed.

The Gobi Desert covered an area of about 1,000 kilometers. After being sent flying into the sky for the first time, the range of the huge pit was still expanding to a range of 2,000 to 3,000 kilometers.

The reason was that the battle was still ongoing, but no one could go to the edge of the pit to investigate the situation, and no one knew what the situation was like inside.

“Tens of millions of years ago, an asteroid with a diameter of more than 10 kilometers fell from outer space, causing a mass extinction on the blue planet. The climate of the blue planet changed drastically, and there's a high chance that its orbit was originally different from what it is now. The environment also changed drastically.”

“The blood essence shines in the air, and it's like a furnace. The battle created a huge pit thousands of kilometers deep. If it happens on the surface of the blue planet, there's no doubt that there will be a mass extinction of living creatures. The invisible shock waves will stack up and cover a larger area until the entire planet is flattened. Will the battle finally shatter the planet?”

“What exactly did Chen Yiming encounter when he went back to the spot where the 10,000-meter-long corpse was dug out? It's equivalent to destroying a corner of the dark forest world. Other than the war weapon, is there such a powerful enemy?”

The leaders of many countries were secretly comparing the amount of soil that had been sent flying into the sky. However, they were not experts and still suppressed their guesses.

Not long after, a famous professor from the Daxia Kingdom joined the video conference.

At the moment, most of the scientific research forces on the blue planet had been transferred from various countries to the Daxia Kingdom to join the space plan and build the spaceships. Therefore, this professor not only represented himself, but also countless experts behind him.

Under the premise that the change in the dark forest world did not affect the progress of the space plan, a quarter of the team of experts were temporarily transferred over to analyze the situation and figure out how the humans should deal with it.

“Professor Huang, tell us about the situation in the huge pit.”

The top leader of the Daxia Kingdom gestured for him to get straight to the point.

“Hello, leaders. With the expert teams' estimates of the geological structure and hardness of the area in the Gobi Desert, as well as the amount of soil that has been sent flying from the ground, if this had happened somewhere deep underground on the blue planet, there is a high chance that the entire planet would have been torn apart instead.”

Professor Huang quickly explained his conclusion.

The team of experts had arrived at this conclusion after they mobilized a huge amount of manpower to build a model, perform the analysis, and discuss the results.

In the end, they believed that the overall stability of the blue planet was much lower than that of the dark forest world, which was much larger than the blue planet. It could not withstand the impact of such an intense battle.

Furthermore, because of the space-travel passage, the blue planet had become suitable for cultivation due to the benefits from the dark forest world. Humans' understanding of the dark forest world was too incomplete. Everything was based on scattered information and incomplete research.

It had to be known that the dark forest world was a world where the true supernatural beings had appeared. The blue planet's supernatural beings were essentially just imposters in comparison.

Most of the team of experts still had some doubts about the conclusion. It was not that they did not think that the blue planet would be torn apart, but that they thought that it would take a much shorter time.

The heads of the various countries listened quietly to the answers given by Professor Huang on behalf of the experts. Everyone felt an invisible pressure.

“Will there be another miracle this time?”

The black tide came from outer space. Be it the leaders of the various countries or the team of experts, they subconsciously thought that it was already a miracle that they could withstand one attack.

This way, humans were lucky enough to win in a shocking reversal and buy a period of time to continue with the unfinished space plan.

How could it happen again and again?

After a moment of silence, the leaders of the various countries expressed their thoughts.

Their thoughts weren't based on the outcome of the battle, but on how humans should deal with it. Or rather, after the battle ended, once Chen Yiming walked out of the space-travel passage, something else would happen.

How should humans split up and escape to Mars or outer space and complete the integration with the three city-level spaceships?

“Although it's only been a few days, the advanced materials from the black tide have already been distributed to the various countries. Let's first arrange for the most basic space survival simulation environment and the relevant personnel to be in position.”

“If the outcome of the battle is bad for humans, the spaceships from the various countries will split up and escape. Try to bring as many people along as possible. Then, we can think of a way to resolve the problem of the configuration.”

The top leader of the Daxia Kingdom issued the latest order after discussing it with the other countries' leaders.

In the devil's den, even though the cube had switched from offense to defense, Chen Yiming had no intention of giving up. The figures still surrounded the cube, punching and kicking it. It was still the most primitive form of hand-to-hand combat.

Punch after punch, kick after kick.

He threw a left punch and a right punch at the same time, then a left kick and a right kick.

At some point, an intention to beg for mercy appeared from the cube.

“Begging for mercy?”

“In other words, it's about to die.”

“The demon god's endurance is not good. It clearly has power at a higher level than me, but it is losing in a battle of attrition against me.”

Chen Yiming laughed in his heart. His movements suddenly increased in frequency, entering a trance-like state.

The inner world cube held on for another 10 minutes.

Suddenly.

“Crack!”

After a cracking sound, Chen Yiming kicked the cube again. The cube couldn't withstand the impact and exploded into dust.

However, there was no earth-shattering explosion. There was no phenomenon appearing in the air, and nothing major had actually happened. It was as if he had broken an ordinary piece of glass.

“Uh… that's it?”

Chen Yiming was dumbfounded.

At this moment, the talent panel appeared in front of him. The number of Skill Points on it had increased by 3,000.

“So there's something in the inner world that can provide Skill Points. Then, is this the reason why it has been defeated?”

Chen Yiming didn't need to analyze it to know the reason.

“What a huge loss.”

On second thought, he did not have the strength to crush the demon god, unless the other party took the initiative to surrender. However, that was impossible.

“There are a total of five foundation bases. The remaining three should still be in their original positions. Because the cultivation environment in the dark forest world has not changed much, it's equivalent to helping me accumulate three million Skill Points.”

“With 300 Skill Points, I can upgrade the spiritual figure to the Level-7 swordsmanship talent. In other words, the spiritual figure can break through to the level of a demon god or even a war weapon.”

“Perhaps I still have a chance to snatch the foundation base. After that, the black tide will definitely understand that the foundation base is very useful to me. At that time, the traps set around them will not let me snatch all the foundation bases unless I can continue to become stronger.”

Chen Yiming turned to look at the foundation base in the source of the spring.

The foundation base seemed to be embedded in the air. There was nothing else around it, but it was not easily destroyed by the aftershock of the battle.

Clearly, as something that was formed from the core of the world, its level was extremely high.

“This time, I'm afraid I've really angered the black tide. Fortunately, the enemy didn't take the foundation base seriously, so I got one so easily. Not only did I break through to the fusion realm, but I also have enough Skill Points to add a fourth talent.”

Chen Yiming sighed for some reason, feeling that his luck was not bad.

Of course, in essence, it was still because of the system. Every time he upgraded his talent, his combat strength would increase greatly. This improvement always exceeded the expectations of his enemies.

After taking a deep breath, he did not immediately take away the foundation base. Instead, he summoned his talent panel.

“Space Anchor”

Chen Yiming's gaze turned to the gray talent tree, and landed on one of the space-manipulation talents.

The system's introduction to this talent was that locations in space could be marked as anchors. The number of anchors would increase as the level of the talent increased. With just a thought, the main body could follow an invisible line to the marked position.

When Chen Yiming was making his selection, he had taken a fancy to the two key pieces of information in the Space Anchor talent: “A Thought” and “Main Body”.

“A Thought” meant that the speed at which the ability was activated was extremely fast. He was very dissatisfied with the huge eye and the slow speed at which the supreme will in the black tide moved Zhang Cheng's body away.

The activation time of a few seconds or longer was undoubtedly not suitable for combat, especially in a battle of life and death.

For example, how did the huge eye get injured by him the first time they met?

It was precisely because it could no longer teleport away and the distortion in space took a long time when it was using the space-travel ability that he accidentally dealt a heavy blow to it.

At that time, he was far from a match for the huge eye.

Another example was when a certain supreme will transferred Zhang Cheng's body away. If not for the fact that Chen Yiming didn't want to bear the consequences, he would have attacked him long ago.

The information about the “main body” meant that this space-travel ability was very focused in its effects, but in turn, it meant that the restrictions on it were much lower.

For example, the system's talent tree also had a space talent called the “Void Gate”. Those who had this talent could break through the space barrier and open a space-travel passage at any time.

However, at a lower level, such a space-travel ability would definitely have a huge restriction on the distance. There was no doubt about it. It was not a bad choice to use it to help the human spaceship team escape.

In addition, after opening up a space-travel passage, the space-travel passage could be used by those other than him. The amount of energy consumed was terrifying.

This way, the speed of the attack wouldn't be too fast, and it wouldn't meet Chen Yiming's current needs.

Another example was the “Space Manipulation” in the system talent tree. This was the first talent in the space-manipulation talent category. The system only had a simple introduction: Increase one's affinity with space.

Chen Yiming had the experience of choosing the Undying Body talent. He knew that this kind of comprehensive growth talent would be of little value at a lower level compared to his current level at the fusion realm.

Perhaps if he chose the “Space Manipulation” talent, it would be useless for a long time.

After thinking it through, Chen Yiming didn't hesitate to spend 3,000 Skill Points on the “Space Anchor” talent.

In the next moment, he vaguely sensed that a transparent mark similar to an anchor had appeared in the depths of his body. As long as he wanted to, he could engrave the transparent mark anywhere within his range of perception.

Chen Yiming immediately summoned the spiritual figure. With a thought, he made the transparent mark appear on the figure's body. A transparent mark that looked like an anchor left his body, followed by an invisible thread.

It caused a slight spatial fluctuation that was almost undetectable to those who did not have a space-manipulation talent. In the end, it landed in the palm of the spiritual figure and turned into a transparent mark that seemed to be engraved in the air.

“Move to another position for testing.”

The spiritual figure moved in a flash and arrived at another spot a few kilometers away.

“In my perception, the transparent mark seems to be engraved in the air, but the actual effect is that it moves with the spiritual figure. The transparent mark can't be seen with the naked eye.”

Chen Yiming was very satisfied with this. The activation of the space-travel anchor had only caused a slight spatial fluctuation. This was undoubtedly very convenient to use in an intense battle.

With such interference, even if one had a space-manipulation talent, it would be difficult for them to notice what Chen Yiming had done in secret. At the critical moment, he would be able to deal the enemy a fatal blow.

“The first anchor has to be on the spiritual figure. This is for ensuring my survival.”

Chen Yiming made the first decision. At any time, staying alive was the most important thing. Winning or losing for a moment didn't matter. He had already retreated countless times.

This involved a restriction. After obtaining the Space Anchor talent, he had obtained a special perception ability.

Compared to spiritual power, this perception range was 10 times larger. However, it could only be used to sense the location of the transparent mark, not anything else.

Due to the special connection between the spiritual figure and his main body, Chen Yiming could sense it no matter where he was or even if he was in two different worlds through the space-travel passage.

Therefore, placing a mark on the spiritual figure was like making use of a bug that bypassed this restriction.

“Upgrading this talent can increase the number of anchors. I have to thank the black tide for deliberately letting me obtain the foundation base in the devil's den. I still have enough Skill Points left over to upgrade it twice.”

At this thought, Chen Yiming almost laughed out loud.

“Upgrade.”

30,000 Skill Points were used up, then 300,000 Skill Points were used up. After two consecutive upgrades, his Space Anchor Talent had increased from Level 1 to Level 3.

Chen Yiming sensed the changes in the depths of his body and realized that the number of transparent marks had increased from one to three.

“One anchor per level? Although it's not much, it's not bad.”

The additional two anchors would be of great use. In battle, he could instantly teleport using the anchors.

It could be used to chase after enemies or to avoid attacks that were beyond his ability to withstand.

This was especially true after he had truly angered the black tide. If he still wanted to cause trouble in the dark forest world, he would not be able to do so without his Space Anchor talent.

However, now that he had the Space Anchor talent, not only did he have the ability to repeatedly move between the two worlds, but he could also keep all the battles in the small forest world and ensure that the humans' space plan was not affected.

Next, he sensed how much the Level-3 Space Anchor talent had increased his perception range.

“Gasp! From Level 1 to Level 3, it increased 10 times, then 100 times, and then to 1,000 times.”

Chen Yiming gasped. He could teleport at will to almost any location within the entire dark forest world with his Space Anchor talent.

Of course, this was also related to the fact that he had already reached the level of the fusion realm. The range of his spiritual power perception was not small. If he had chosen the Space Anchor talent right from the start, the range of his ability to teleport would not be as large as it was now.

When he came back to his senses, he glanced at the updated talent panel.
