I Can Enhance My Talents Using Unlimited Skill Points

Chapter 171: Movement (I)

Chen Yiming was a disciple of the Myriad Phenomena Sect’s Mantis Snake Court.

The news that this person was about to come to the Mantis Snake Sword School in Three Rivers City strongly stimulated the yearning the young disciples like Li Chunsheng had to join the Myriad Phenomena Sect.

Many young disciples remained silent, but they started to think about finding an opportunity to get to know him.

Suddenly, the head, Fang Xiong, who had been silent all this time, reminded them, “Be quiet. He’s here.”

The disciples who were still discussing in low voices fell silent. Many of them looked around for Chen Yiming’s figure.

However, the pedestrians and vehicles on the street were still the same as before.

“Where is he?”

They were puzzled, but no one dared to question the head’s words.

For a time, they felt like they were ants on a hot pan. The short wait of a few seconds felt like a few minutes instead.

At this moment, from a few streets away, there was the sound of a loud bang.

The rumbling sound was not only heard by the disciples of the martial arts school, but also by all the pedestrians on the street. In the blink of an eye, the street was in chaos. Amidst the shocked cries, the pedestrians hurriedly found a place to hide.

Other than Fang Xiong, everyone nearby, including the disciples of the martial arts school, thought that something had happened in Three Rivers City. Otherwise, why would there be sounds like that of artillery shells exploding in the city?

Immediately after, all the disciples of the martial arts school were stunned by the scene in front of them.

The rumbling sound gradually approached the martial arts school. Suddenly, a figure appeared at the end of the road. In their vision, a blurry figure was running in midair.

It was Chen Yiming, who was rushing over.

Most of the people in the city were ordinary people. If he had traveled on the ground, the strong wind created by his movements would easily cause chaos in the city.

Therefore, Chen Yiming thought of this method that wouldn’t hurt anyone and would save him some time.

Running in midair was something that those in the warrior realm would commonly use for a short period of time in battle. This was because every step required one to make the internal force under one’s feet explode and produce a recoil, pushing one’s entire body forward.

Other than those with extremely huge reserves of internal force, very few warriors would rely on this method which quickly used up their internal force for their normal journeys.

Fang Xiong did not mind this and maintained his smile. He thought that the person from the Myriad Phenomena Sect who had left the mountain this time was a disciple who liked to put on airs and maintain his status as a disciple of the sect.

The disciples at the side could not remain as calm as their master and could not help but exclaim.

“How is that possible!”

“How can a person run in midair?”

“Could it be that he brought technological equipment to help him fly?”

These disciples were almost scared silly. They widened their eyes and watched as the figure approached from afar and turned into a cannon that shot into the sky, arriving in front of them from 100 meters away.

This time, even without the head’s reminder, since the disciples of the martial arts school had already forgotten all about the script they had prepared beforehand, they did not dare to say anything.

In the eyes of these disciples, this was a young man who was about their age.

Even though his hair was slightly disheveled by the wind, his aura was as deep as the sea. When they met his piercing gaze, they subconsciously averted their eyes.

“Are you the inner sect disciple from the Mantis Snake Court, Chen Yiming?”

Fang Xiong asked when he arrived.

At the same time, he was in shock that the new arrival had completely overturned his previous evaluation.

The disciple from the Myriad Phenomena Sect who had left the mountain this time was not like ordinary inner sect disciples. Instead, he was like someone who was at the top of the true disciples.

“That’s right, it’s me,” Chen Yiming said as he glanced at the plaque above the school.

With one foot in the third stage of the warrior realm, he was standing together with ordinary warriors and those in the disciple realm.

Even though Chen Yiming had already restrained his aura, he was still overwhelming Fang Xiong and his disciples.

“You must be Fang Xiong, the one who issued the mission. Where’s the disciple who requested you to post the mission?”

Chen Yiming’s gaze swept across the disciples in front of him and finally stopped on a young man who looked to be about 15 or 16 years old.

This young man was a little different from the other disciples of the martial arts school. He was much calmer than the others, and at least on the surface, he did not look too shocked.

“Xu Zhang, come here,” Fang Xiong called out to the youth Chen Yiming had noticed.

Xu Zhang walked out from among the disciples and said respectfully, “I’m Xu Zhang. I’ll leave the matter of my escort back to East Sea Province to you. The Xu clan will definitely reward you handsomely after this.”

Fang Xiong waited for Xu Zhang to finish greeting him and was about to tell Chen Yiming some insider information about the Xu clan, but he was quickly interrupted.

“I’m in a hurry. Let’s set off immediately,” Chen Yiming urged.

There was no precise time for the opening of the Mist Island in the East Sea. Once the factions participating in the competition for the willow tree cores had gathered, the cores from the willow trees that were stronger would quickly be harvested and fought over.

Compared to when the Mantis Snake Court’s Zhou Xuesheng had left, Chen Yiming was already half a day late.

If he did not hurry up, by the time he arrived at the Mist Island, the willow tree cores might have already been completely harvested.

When Xu Zhang heard this, he was momentarily at a loss.

This inner sect disciple of the Mantis Snake Court was about to set off without any discussion, completely disrupting the plan he had thought out.

He had originally planned to start laying out the bait from the moment they met and slowly lure him in. Then, before entering East Sea Province, he would discuss the final terms of the deal.

Seeing this, Chen Yiming understood that Xu Zhang had pretended to be calm earlier, but once there was a disruption to his plan, he would be thrown into confusion.

Fang Xiong was not too surprised. Many disciples on the mountain were like this, so he helped Xu Zhang out of the situation. “Hurry up, if you have something to say, you can do it on the way.”

Once Xu Zhang walked over, Chen Yiming grabbed his collar and held him like a chick. He leaped up and rushed off in the direction of the East Sea province.

“Young Master!”

A middle-aged man immediately got out of the off-road vehicle that had been parked by the roadside. He shouted at the two people who were gradually disappearing from his sight.

At the entrance of the school, not only were the remaining disciples confused, but even Fang Xiong was confused by Chen Yiming’s actions.

This disciple from the Myriad Phenomena Sect could use a car, but insisted on traveling on foot. Although the speed of a warrior in the wilderness was much faster than a car, and he could travel in a straight line across the mountain range,

wasn’t he afraid that he would use up too much internal force and be ambushed by others?

The truth was that Chen Yiming felt that driving was too slow. If he took his time to get to East Sea Province and the fight for the willow tree cores had already ended, he would have wasted his time.

After all, he had already completely comprehended the concept diagram of the black fog. The cloud mist fruit was useless to Chen Yiming. It was just something he was using to fool others.

…

During a short break on the journey, Xu Zhang took the initiative to tell Chen Yiming about the Xu clan’s situation.

Xu Zhang was the eldest son of the current head of the Xu clan in West Bamboo City in East Sea province. As an heir, he was sent to the Mantis Snake Sword School in Three Rivers City in Jiangnan province to practice martial arts. His goal was to enter the Myriad Phenomena Sect.

However, things were unpredictable. After his father, Xu Ao, had lost an arm to a sneak attack from three warriors, his third uncle, Xu Kai, had somehow broken through to the warrior realm.

Although Xu Ao’s combat strength had weakened after losing an arm, he was not afraid of Xu Kai since they were both at the same level.

The fundamental problem was that Xu Kai had caused the clan to split into two and sold himself as a disciple to the Cloud Sea Sect in East Sea Province. The Cloud Sea Sect was a large sect on the same level as the Myriad Phenomena Sect, and the Xu clan was thus suppressed by them.

At this moment, Xu Zhang patted his chest and promised, “As long as you can stand on my father’s side, the Xu clan will give you two more cloud mist fruits as payment.”

The cloud mist fruit was useful for all cultivation techniques with the smoke attribute. This was also the main reason why Xu Zhang entered the Mantis Snake Sword School and aimed to join the Mantis Snake Court of the Myriad Phenomena Sect.

Chen Yiming glanced at him without much interest. “Did the Xu clan find a mutant plant that can produce the cloud mist fruit in the East Sea?”
