I Can Enhance My Talents Using Unlimited Skill Points Chapter 440

Published at 16th of November 2022 07:46:35 AM

In a blind spot on the street outside the Water Moon Source Ore Workshop, a faint spatial fluctuation appeared, and Chen Yiming's figure gradually appeared. Using the space anchor he had placed in advance, he traveled from the source ore in the secret underground warehouse to the outside world.

Chen Yiming looked up in the direction of the barrier and frowned. “It seems that Heaven Suppressing City is pretending not to see what is happening.”

“If the Golden Sword Source Ore Workshop chooses to make a deal, the battle might not last long. I have to move faster.”

The first step in his plan at the Water Moon Source Ore Workshop had gone more smoothly than he had imagined. Naturally, he did not want to be exposed so quickly.

There were many large cities built around the forbidden death zone. Chen Yiming had used a special method to steal the essence energy. As long as it wasn't exposed, he could continue to use this method.

In the next moment, Chen Yiming retracted his gaze and didn't have time to check how many Skill Points he had gained. His figure disappeared and he headed to the next source ore shop.

After he left, a few passers-by appeared in the vicinity.

One of them was a barrier expert who worked in Heaven Suppressing City. His physique was slightly thin and weak, and he was usually in charge of maintaining the energy barrier that enveloped the entire city. Now, he was in charge of secretly monitoring the situation in the various source ore shops.

The other people were not on the same level as the barrier expert in terms of height and strength. Their job was to protect the safety of this barrier expert.

“Eh? There seemed to be traces of spatial fluctuations nearby just now?” the barrier expert said in a low voice, suddenly turning around and adjusting his glasses.

“Did something happen at the Water Moon Source Ore Workshop?” his companion asked in a low voice.

The factions behind the source ore shops in the abandoned world used their source ore experts to form connections. After countless years of development, although they did not openly declare an alliance, they had always communicated very often in secret.

This was something that the factions outside of the source ore shops did not want to see. For example, the faction of the ruler of the Heaven Suppressing City hoped that the various source ore shops in the city would fight among themselves. This way, the source ores would not be monopolized and the prices would not increase.

However, they did not want to scare all the source ore shops away. After all, almost all the talented source ore experts were working in the source ore shops.

Once the source ore shops were chased away, the source ore experts would naturally follow suit. Even a large city like Heaven Suppressing City would deteriorate.

This involved a consensus that had been formed over the years. Without a source ore expert to identify the authenticity of the source ores, the issue of fake source ores in the market would only be worse.

Therefore, when cultivators gambled on the source ores, they had no choice but to choose a certain source ores shop with a relatively good reputation and not those belonging to some unknown faction.

The barrier expert observed it seriously for a moment before saying, “It doesn't look like it, but unless the Water Moon Source Ore Workshop opens up and lets us in to check, we can't be completely sure whether something has happened.”

His companion suggested, “In that case, let's report it. After the battle involving the Golden Sword Source Ore Workshop ends, we'll find an excuse to enter the Water Moon Source Ore Workshop and check it out.”

The barrier expert thought for a moment and nodded. “That's the only way. If there's nothing wrong with the Water Moon Source Ore Workshop, there's naturally no need to hide it. We'll know after a little probing.”

Soon, the news was reported to the higher ups.

Then, a team led by experts at the jade star realm rushed to the vicinity of the Water Moon Source Ore Workshop.

At this moment, the young man and his two servants were still watching the battle within the barrier and discussing Chen Yiming's true identity.

The young man admired Chen Yiming and his battle prowess on the Flying Cloud Planet.

Just like Gao Shuai, Chen Yiming was also someone the Water Moon Group wanted to befriend. However, he was ranked after Gao Shuai. After all, they knew even less about Chen Yiming.

Little did he know that Chen Yiming had already visited the Water Moon Source Ore Workshop, and there was only a layer of stone separating them.

At the Illusion Source Ore Workshop, Chen Yiming appeared at the corner of the street opposite the shop and looked ahead. Suddenly, he stopped in his tracks.

This place had changed drastically from when he came to scout the area. The courtyard was white and covered in fog.

Just like the name of the source ore shop, the white fog alternated between illusion and reality. If one barged into the shop unwelcome, it was equivalent to taking the initiative to step into a trap.

It was even possible that there was a real illusory world behind the white fog. Things did not usually end well for those who barged in uninvited. It was a warning from the Illusion Source Ore Workshop to those who were spying on them.

Chen Yiming scanned his surroundings and vaguely sensed that someone was monitoring the Illusion Source Ore Workshop.

He pondered for a moment and said, “Previously, no one was monitoring the Water Moon Source Ore Workshop, but the situation is different at the Illusion Source Ore Workshop. Is someone trying to snatch it from me, or is it just their surveillance?”

However, with such a tight schedule, there was no time to figure it out.

To Chen Yiming, if he couldn't get the system to quietly absorb the essence energy from the source ores, he could only barge in. He might even have to start a massacre.

He had left one of the space anchors outside the illusion barrier, so he could exit from the shop at any time.

After making his decision, his figure gradually faded away. In order not to let the surveillance personnel see him, he used the space anchor to directly teleport into the interior of the Illusion Source Ore Workshop.

In the next moment, “Buzz!”

Due to Chen Yiming's appearance, the white fog around him was instantly evaporated by his blood essence. The ground was shaking, indicating that an unfamiliar intruder had appeared.

The illusory world!

As expected, the Illusion Source Ore Workshop was not only enveloped by the white fog, but also separated from reality through some method, linking it to a separate space.

“How dare you! Do you really think our Illusion Sect can be defeated so easily?”

Not far away, the white fog automatically parted. A young woman holding a silver sword walked over step by step.

There was a lotus mark between her eyebrows. Her silver-white hair was draped over her shoulders, and she was wearing a long white dress that seemed to have fused with this illusory world.

“I don't think I've seen you at the Illusion Source Ore Workshop before.”

Chen Yiming's expression was calm as he spread out his spiritual power to forcefully eliminate the interference from the white fog.

The woman chuckled. “Although I don't know where you came from, you haven't seen me before, but I did see you pretending to be a customer yesterday to enter the Illusion Source Ore Workshop to scout out the location.”

“However, it's not important to talk about this now. Tell me, which faction sent you here to investigate? If you tell me the truth, I might spare your life.”

“However, I naturally can't let you keep your cultivation power. You can live the rest of your life as a mortal with only a strong body.”

Chen Yiming's gaze narrowed as he smiled. “You actually paid attention to me in advance and even want to cripple me?”

The woman's expression turned cold as she continued, “Give up on trying to resist. You can still avoid suffering. Just come quietly with me to the Illusion Sect.”

“As long as we look through your memories and investigate it clearly, we can spare your life if there are no problems. After all, you're just a pitiful pawn.”

“Don't even think about getting help from the outside world. This is an illusory world separated from reality. It's one of the three treasures of our Illusion Sect, the inner space of the Pearl of Illusion.”

“Without my permission, you won't be able to find your way out even if you die of old age.”

As soon as she finished speaking, a white-bearded elder, three middle-aged men, and a group of burly guards walked out of the white fog. Each of them sized Chen Yiming up.

The old man was at the jade star realm, the three middle-aged men were at the star condensation realm, and all the guards were at the fusion realm. In Heaven Suppressing City, this was already considered a strong force.

Facing the person who had barged into the Illusion Source Ore Workshop at this juncture, the woman seemed to be reasonable and was willing to let him live, but the prerequisite was that he had to let them investigate his memories.

Looking through his memories involved the most fundamental basis of consciousness at the spiritual level. Even at the level of a god, it was equivalent to handing over one's fate to others.

Unless they were unable to resist, it was impossible for one to let this happen.

In other words, the woman was just trying to trick him. If Chen Yiming fell into the hands of the Illusion Sect, he wouldn't have a good outcome.

At this moment, all the gazes landed on Chen Yiming. Even if he was a genius from a large faction, with the old man at the jade star realm holding the line, it wouldn't be easy for him to escape.

This was a disadvantage in terms of cultivation time. The reason why geniuses were geniuses was because they had powerful combat strength, and they also had a lot of potential to unearth.

However, they would ultimately be inferior to those elders who had already completely unleashed their potential and reached the limit in their cultivation. These elders might even be one of those geniuses back then.

Suddenly, the woman sighed. “It seems that you want to do this the hard way. I've decided to take back what I said just now. In a while, your corpse will be hung outside the Illusion Source Ore Workshop as a warning.”

As soon as she finished speaking, a silver sword appeared behind Chen Yiming, and the woman stabbed it at him mercilessly. However, the woman's figure remained at the same spot.

This was the power of the god of illusion from the Illusion Sect. After cultivating to the star condensation realm and mastering the power of the world, its power was comparable to a powerful talent from the illusory world.

Within the range of its control over the power of the world, one had the ability to move at will and was comparable to a spatial ability user. With just a thought, one could switch between their illusion and their true body.

Seeing this, Chen Yiming smiled brightly.

“In my opinion, are you really naive or are you really bold? The last time a woman took the initiative to attack me, she would have died on the spot if not for someone rescuing her.”

After he spoke, he turned around and grabbed the silver sword with his bare hands.

The silver sword was extremely sharp and was a rare powerful divine artifact. It instantly cut through Chen Yiming's palm.

However, before blood could flow out, the sword pierced his body at the same time. The silver sword was held tightly in his hand, which had returned to its original state, and was trapped in its position.

At this moment, the woman was less than a meter away from Chen Yiming. He could even smell the fragrance coming from her body.

However, this fragrance was also a woman's weapon, causing him to see an illusion for a moment before it was destroyed by his terrifying spiritual power.

The woman was stunned, as if she had not expected such an outcome.

In her heart, being dodged or blocked by a counterattack was much more realistic than the sword being caught in his bare hands. This was ridiculous. Someone was actually using their body to challenge the sharpness of a divine artifact.

In the next moment, “Crack!”

The silver sword couldn't withstand it anymore. Just before it was about to be broken, it disappeared along with the woman's figure. Chen Yiming hadn't been able to crush the divine weapon with his bare hands, and had only damaged it.

At the same time, a terrifying aura awakened from Chen Yiming's body and soared into the sky, instantly filling the entire space within the Pearl of Illusion.

The white fog became like dew in the face of a blazing sun. It was as like the darkness being chased away by the rising sun, and in the blink of an eye, it had all disappeared.

“Bang! Bang! Bang!”

The woman's figure had just appeared beside the white-bearded elder when a group of warriors at the fusion realm exploded into a bloody mist and died at the same time.

The Undying Mark at the fusion realm was like a toy that could be easily crushed in the face of the power of the world. There was no chance to dodge it.

Furthermore, in front of Chen Yiming, who could suppress geniuses of the same level, their true combat strength was at least two levels lower.

It was just like how someone at the jade star realm could easily kill those at the fusion realm.

“Damn it, how is this possible? We're clearly both at the star condensation realm.”

The woman's expression changed drastically as she screamed in her heart.

Other than the white-bearded elder, the woman and the three middle-aged men, who were at the same level of the star condensation realm, could only barely withstand the power that was forcefully changing the environment within the Pearl of Illusion.

In terms of endurance, the woman was two to three times stronger than the middle-aged men, while Chen Yiming was dozens or even hundreds of times stronger.

The difference was too great. So what if there were more of them? They all felt the immense pressure pushing down on the world, just like mortals feeling powerless when facing a natural disaster.

“Young man, stop for the time being. This might just be a misunderstanding.”

At this moment, the white-bearded elder couldn't stay out of this any longer. He released the power of the world in his body and fought with Chen Yiming for control of the world in the Pearl of Illusion.

After all, the jade star realm was an existence at a higher level than the star condensation realm. Chen Yiming's strength wasn't in controlling the environment, so the control of the world was completely messed up now.

The woman and the three middle-aged men heaved a sigh of relief, especially the woman, who was drenched in cold sweat. If they really fought alone, she had a feeling that she would be instantly killed.

When the difference in strength between the two sides was too great, their power of the world would be completely suppressed within the inner world, and they could only fight the other party head-on.

The broken divine sword in her hand was proof that she was courting death in a head-on battle.

“Die!”

However, Chen Yiming had no intention of letting anyone off, including the woman and the white-bearded elder.

They could only blame the Illusion Source Ore Workshop for having singled him out. If they let this go, he could have taken advantage of the situation and used an unexpected method to suck dry the essence energy in the source ores without anyone knowing.

He used the space anchor to teleport in front of the woman, who turned pale on the spot.

However, the small space around her was completely sealed off. She could only fight with her body and could not use the power of the god of illusion to turn into an illusion and dodge the attack.

“How dare you!” the white-bearded elder shouted.

The distance between the two of them was only one to two meters, but this distance was like a chasm. It was too sudden, and no one had expected Chen Yiming to have the ability to teleport.

He struck out with his palm.

The damaged silver sword stabbed out.

A dazzling light erupted, and it was as if a huge palm had descended from the sky.

The space in the Pearl of Illusion shook, and the woman could not even grunt. Her inner world and the soul inside it were reduced to dust on the spot.

She was only at the star condensation realm and did not even reach the level of a genius. Although she relied on the power of illusion to make it extremely difficult for others to kill her, the foundation of her abilities came from the power of the world from her inner world.

Even though they were in a sealed space inside the Pearl of Illusion, the authority of the entire world had still been temporarily seized by Chen Yiming. All the fancy moves had lost their effect, and it had become a pure melee battle.

Fighting purely in terms of physical strength, the woman was instantly reduced to ashes.
