I Can Enhance My Talents Using Unlimited Skill Points

Chapter 317: Sword Aura Storm

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

A new day had begun. East Lake City was peaceful and calm.

No one seemed to have discovered or investigated the huge battle that happened in the wilderness last night. It was just brushed aside calmly and did not cause any panic in East Lake City.

After Chen Yingying went to school, Chen Yiming turned on the television and switched to the Jiangnan television station. The morning news was playing.

An announcer in a suit and stockings with long legs broadcasted to the audience the latest news from the day before in Jiangnan province.

Chen Yiming watched the morning news from beginning to end, paying special attention to the resettlement plan for the refugees from Southeast Asia.

He also noticed that there was a small black mole on the collarbone exposed by the collar of the female announcer’s white blouse.

Of course, he could not be blamed. For the sake of the viewership ratings, most of the female announcers were wearing white blouses.

However, the female host’s chest was rather large, so she couldn’t fasten the top button. Furthermore, Chen Yiming’s vision was extremely sharp.

Not long after the morning news ended, the phone at home rang. Chen Yiming picked it up and held it to his ear.

“Hello?”

“Brother, you’re at home!”

“What’s the matter?”

“Brother, didn’t you publicize a simplified version of the Mantis Snake Sword Technique in the martial arts academy? Just now, the academy head came to me and asked to invite you to the martial arts academy.”

......

Chen Yiming thought to himself, “Yuan Chengwei is really bold. However, it’s also possible that the person behind him is asking him to do this because he wants to test me face to face.

However, since you are on the third level, you might not have thought that I am on the fifth level. When the two of us meet, it will be the time for the spiritual figure to enter the otherworld.

Not only can it verify if the treants have the ability to communicate through space in real time, but it can also clean up the treants on the other side of the space-travel passage.”

Thinking of this, he replied to his sister, “Alright, I’ll make time to go over in the afternoon.”

After hanging up on his sister, he called Wang Ronghui and told him the time he needed to clear the treants on the other side of the space-travel passage. He suggested that Jiangnan province send out a large number of scouting teams after the battle.

…

in the Gobi Desert in the otherworld, with the space-travel passage as the center, the area within dozens of kilometers was filled with green.

The treants had all turned into tree forms, and their huge roots dug deep into the ground.

The strange thing was that even though a large number of treants were rooted here, the original appearance of the Gobi Desert still existed. The ground was filled with exposed rocks and loose yellow sand.

At the same time, in the depths of the ground that could not be seen, the roots of the treants wrapped around each other. Then, something similar to a fusion happened, and they became thicker and longer.

Starting from the edge dozens of kilometers away, countless roots gathered towards the center, finally forming a group of roots in the shape of a huge funnel. Endless life force could flow freely within it.

At the bottom of the roots, a tree root of unknown length grew out, piercing straight into the depths where no light could reach. After reaching a certain depth, the tree root was suddenly attacked by a strange force.

This strange power was invisible and formless. It was a little like a curse, but also a little like radiation. There was also an unknown whispering voice echoing in the depths.

The tree root could not do anything about the strange power. It could only rely on its immense vitality to withstand the attack and extend deeper into the ground.

…

In the afternoon, the weather was bright and sunny.

At the East Lake Martial Arts Academy, unlike the grand occasion when the representatives from the Jiangnan Martial Arts Academy came the day before, once the martial arts competition ended, the high school students in the city no longer paid attention to it.

At this moment, the situation at the entrance of the academy had already returned to normal. However, having fewer people did not mean anything. It was just that they did not publicize it.

The academy head, Yang Shimeng, and a few other teachers, as well as Chen Yingying, had arrived at the school gate at two in the afternoon. The sun was shining brightly above their heads, and they had been waiting for more than half an hour.

“Yingying, did your brother say when he would come over? I mean, is your brother really free to come over?” the academy head, Yang Shimeng, asked softly.

Yang Shimeng was over 70 years old, and his hair was already completely white. He had the appearance of a kind old man, and there was no trace of pride about him. If he was on the streets, no one would think that he was the head of a martial arts academy.

Chen Yingying looked up at the scorching sun and said, “I’ll make a call and check with my brother.”

“No! No! I was just asking casually.” Yang Shimeng waved his hand and stopped Chen Yingying.

The school teachers at the side were feeling terrible. They were standing in a military posture under the hot sun and did not move at all. Not only did they not dare to complain, but they could not even rest or move around to drink some water.

This was something that the academy head, Yang Shimeng, had arranged in advance. From Chen Yingying’s words, Chen Yiming had only mentioned he would come in the afternoon, and didn’t say what time he would be there.

If not for the fact that he was related to Chen Yingying, no one would even care about the East Lake Martial Arts Academy. Yang Shimeng knew this very well, so he had arranged everything in advance.

…

Time passed by slowly. At 4 pm, Chen Yiming walked over slowly from the street.

In reality, he had been monitoring the situation nearby. Of course, he was not paying attention to the attitudes of the teachers of the East Lake Martial Arts Academy. Instead, he was observing the dozens of teachers and students in the martial arts academy’s stadium.

Among these people were the elite teachers and students of the East Lake Martial Arts Academy and the teachers and students of the Jiangnan Martial Arts Academy.

Chen Yiming was secretly watching Yuan Chengwei in the crowd to see if he had any signs of sending out an advanced warning.

“Hello! I’m the head of the East Lake Martial Arts Academy, Yang Shimeng.” When Yang Shimeng saw who it was, he took the initiative to welcome him and extended his hands enthusiastically.

“Hello, Principal Yang.” Chen Yiming also extended his hand and shook hands with Yang Shimeng. He continued, “Thank you for taking care of Chen Yingying.”

“No! No! It’s what I should do,” Yang Shimeng hurriedly said politely.

That was what he said, but he did not really think so. In reality, Chen Yingying had always enjoyed the best conditions for her martial arts cultivation. Therefore, there was not much difference in which martial arts academy she studied in. Instead, the martial arts academy itself would benefit from it.

The teachers of the martial arts academy at the side finally got a chance to relax. They smiled as they gently moved their ankles.

What kind of person was a martial master? He was one of the three such existences in the Daxia Kingdom. If they could talk to him face to face, they would be able to brag about it for the rest of their lives. No matter how tired they were, they had to endure it.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Yang Shimeng invited Chen Yiming into the martial arts academy. He led the way and the group headed straight for the sports field.

“How’s the cultivation of the simplified Mantis Snake Sword Technique going?”

“No one among the students has successfully broken through to the warrior realm, but seven of the teachers have already used this opportunity to break through.”

Along the way, Chen Yiming and the academy head, Yang Shimeng, chatted. He roughly understood the situation.

He realized that the students of the East Lake Martial Arts Academy had a poor foundation. Even if they used a technique that greatly reduced the threshold for breaking through, it would be difficult for them to make any progress in a short period of time.

He then thought about how the students recruited by the East Lake Martial Arts Academy were already young people with medium-level talent.

There were even more people who were less talented and did not manage to enter the martial arts academy to further their studies. Instead, they directly joined the hunting teams, small sects, and so on to become fighters.

This did not include those who had extremely poor martial arts talent who were not worth nurturing.

Chen Yiming thought to himself, “Everyone cultivates martial arts, but optimizing the cultivation technique is far from enough. The cultivation environment is more important for most people with mediocre talent.”

At the thought of this, the energy mine that might have been occupied by the treants aroused Chen Yiming’s interest again.

…

In the sports field, the people from the East Lake Martial Arts Academy and the Jiangnan Martial Arts Academy had waited for two hours in boredom. Everyone chatted and joked with each other to pass the time.

At this moment, they saw the academy head leading a few people over from afar. The teachers immediately urged the students to line up.

The students jumped up from the ground like frightened rabbits, looking for their assigned positions in a panic.

The head, Yang Shimeng, naturally saw this scene, but he could only feel anger in his heart and could not flare up on the spot.

Chen Yiming remained calm and looked straight ahead, as if he didn’t care. In reality, he was communicating with the figure in his mind. “Attack!”

Yang Shimeng took the initiative to introduce them to Chen Yiming. “On the left are the elite teachers and students from the East Lake Martial Arts Academy. On the right are the representatives from the Jiangnan Martial Arts Academy.”

Chen Yiming swept his gaze across them and said, “It’s alright. Martial arts is not something to cultivate in secret. Before the representatives from the Jiangnan Martial Arts Academy leave, give them a copy of the simplified version of the Mantis Snake Sword Technique.”

Yang Shimeng’s heart was bleeding when he heard this, but he still maintained a smile on his face. “Indeed. If all the cultivation techniques in the world are improved, the overall strength of humans will definitely increase by leaps and bounds.”

In reality, the martial arts exchange this time also involved a private agreement. The Jiangnan Martial Arts Academy had brought the super rookie, Yuan Chengwei, along to give the East Lake Martial Arts Academy face. Yang Shimeng had to return the favor and try to invite Chen Yiming to the academy.

The agreement did not require the East Lake Martial Arts Academy to fulfill their request. If it worked out, everyone would be happy. If it did not, the Jiangnan Martial Arts Academy could only treat it as if they were unlucky.

However, Yang Shimeng felt that he had made a huge loss. Previously, Chen Yiming had not said anything about letting the East Lake Martial Arts Academy distribute the simplified version of the technique. The East Lake Martial Arts Academy had also tacitly agreed to only publicize it internally.

But now… the Jiangnan Martial Arts Academy would also have a copy.

Chen Yiming nodded and started to explain his rationale for creating the simplified version of the technique in front of the teachers and students.

“The concept diagram is essentially formed by lines of spiritual power. Through a special arrangement, it resonates with the corresponding supernatural power, which is internal force, and is finally transformed from the body’s energy.”

“My modified method simplifies the original arrangement and maintains the strength of the resonance at the lowest level at which one’s energy can be converted into internal force…”

The teachers and students in front of him listened attentively.

In fact, most people just blindly copied the standard concept diagrams, including the seven teachers who had used it to break through to the warrior realm.

This was just like a mathematical theorem. Using a theorem did not mean that one knew how to prove it, let alone an illusory concept diagram that was simulated by one’s spiritual power.

If not for the fact that the concept diagram could be obtained from the creatures from the otherworld, it would be extremely difficult to find the pattern of spiritual power that resonated with internal force.

Although Chen Yiming’s idea wasn’t to create a cultivation technique out of thin air, he still had to thoroughly analyze the corresponding concept diagram. This involved extremely strong spiritual control.

At some point, energy fluctuations suddenly appeared in Yuan Chengwei’s body.

Chen Yiming’s sharp senses caught it immediately. From the corner of his eye, he observed Yuan Chengwei, who seemed to be still immersed in his thoughts.

After about another minute, Yuan Chengwei’s expression changed. He could no longer maintain his composure, and he seemed to be wavering.

Chen Yiming chuckled to himself. He continued to add more information and talk about his experience with the concept diagram. He even talked about the combination of various types of internal force, the transformation of internal force, and the fusion of internal forces.

All the teachers and students subconsciously held their breaths. This was a valuable lesson he was sharing from his experience. Many people could not understand the cultivation after the warrior realm and could only rely on feeling the rocks to cross the river.

They might not be able to use it at the moment, but they could use this to build their foundation for their future cultivation, trying to break through to an unimaginable level in the future.

Only Yuan Chengwei fell into an extremely awkward situation.

The mysterious seed seemed to have a bad feeling, as if something important was being destroyed, so it kept asking Yuan Chengwei to leave.

…

10 minutes earlier,

in the Gobi Desert in the otherworld,

the treants’ territory suddenly had an uninvited guest.

The spiritual figure rushed out of the space-travel passage and floated in midair. Its powerful spiritual power spread out, and wherever it passed, the treants felt that their spiritual power was cut through.

“A powerful enemy!”

“What a terrifying existence!”

Some of the treants instantly had this thought. Their huge roots were intertwined together, so this thought instantly spread to all the treants, even those dozens of kilometers away.

A commotion started deep underground. First, the tree roots that were shaped like funnels quickly retreated.

At the same time, the huge funnel formed by the roots began to collapse. All the roots began to break away from their fusion state and wanted to return to their main body.

The spiritual figure scanned the area with its spiritual power and placed its palms together.

The treants had just reacted when a powerful aura soared into the sky. The clouds in the sky seemed to have been pierced by a sharp sword, revealing a huge hole.

Immediately after, ring after ring of Sword Aura appeared, forming a sphere and then a storm.

With the enhancement from the Undying Body talent, the spiritual figure floated above the space-travel passage, mobilizing the power of nature and turning it into the Sword Aura, starting to attack crazily on the spot.

It did not need to care about whether it was taking on too much power, or to consider whether it would be accidentally injured. It did not need to think about anything. There was only one thing it cared about: to kill.

The treants near the space-travel passage did not have the time to retract their roots and return to their humanoid forms before they were swept away by the Sword Aura Storm and cut into pieces in the blink of an eye.

Looking down from the sky, a bright white hemisphere formed by Sword Aura was constantly expanding. Along the way, whether it was the treants or the mountain, as long as they were enveloped by the bright white hemisphere, nothing would be left behind.

A few minutes later.

“Huff!”

The spiritual figure let out a breath.

It was not that it could not continue, but that the Sword Aura storm only had a maximum range of 20 kilometers. All the treants in this range had already been wiped out by the Sword Aura.

What greeted its eyes were the ground, which had been wiped clean of treants for more than 100 meters. It was filled with countless holes, broken wood, and yellow sand.

However, the chaos underground had yet to stop. The spiritual figure used its spiritual power to scan the area and discovered that the tree roots that had retreated deep underground were continuously dividing.

It turned from a big root to a few small roots and quickly retreated in the direction of the treants that were not affected by the Sword Aura storm.
