I Can Enhance My Talents Using Unlimited Skill Points

Chapter 191: Funeral (I)

Two days later.

At the port of Coconut Island City, the capital of East Sea Province, Chen Yiming arrived empty-handed and traveling light. He was wearing a training robe from the Myriad Phenomena Sect as he alighted from the cruise ship.

Beside him were Xu Zhang, who was wearing the Mantis Snake Sword School’s training robe, and some of the Xu clan’s subordinates.

The cruise ship came from West Bamboo City. Along the way, it maintained the escort of several warriors and circled around the coast to reach Coconut Island City.

On the sightseeing cruise ship, there was a special coating on the bottom of the ship to expel mutant beasts. In addition, they had hired warriors to escort them. Every trip cost a lot, and ordinary small martial arts factions could not afford such an expense.

This was what Xu Zhang’s faction had done to express their intentions. All of this was to curry favor with Chen Yiming, a disciple of the Myriad Phenomena Sect.

At this moment, there were already private cars waiting by the roadside. A few more followed behind, forming a convoy.

Seeing this, the pedestrians near the docks stopped and watched.

“Look over there. There’s someone from the Myriad Phenomena Sect,” a tall and thin young man whispered.

“In the past two days, the Myriad Phenomena Sect has become famous in East Sea Province.”

The burly man beside him nodded.

“Indeed, their sect master is among those who successfully escaped from Mist Island during the incident,” the tall and thin young man said in a low voice.

“If only I could join a large sect like the Myriad Phenomena Sect,” a short man beside them said enviously.

“It’s not a big problem. Go back to sleep. You can do anything you want in your dreams,” the tall and thin man laughed coldly.

“Hehe, and a single ferry ticket can make you go bankrupt.”

The burly man also laughed.

The incident that happened on Mist Island two days ago had shaken East Sea Province and even half of the Daxia Kingdom.

The death of several sect masters, the mysterious masked man, the disappearance of Mist Island, the breakthrough of the willow tree king, and so on had become the hot topics for discussion.

Chen Yiming’s expression was calm as he and Xu Zhang quickly got into the car at the front. While the crowd continued their discussion, they sped away.

The purpose of this trip was to go to the funeral parlor in Coconut Island City and participate in the memorial service for the sect master of a large sect who had died on Mist Island.

Chen Yiming had originally been escorting Xu Zhang back to West Bamboo City and was about to return to the Myriad Phenomena Sect when he suddenly received an order from Zhou Xuesheng’s disciple. He was forced to change directions and head to Coconut Island City.

In order to ensure that the escort mission to West Bamboo City was as flawless as possible, Chen Yiming didn’t reject the hospitality of Xu Zhang’s faction.

In the car, in order to avoid an awkward silence, Xu Zhang said, “The Mantis Snake Sword Technique is indeed worthy of its reputation. Now, everyone is saying that the sect master of the Myriad Phenomena Sect relied on this technique to easily get out of a life and death situation.”

Xu Zhang’s target was the Mantis Snake Court to begin with, and Chen Yiming was a disciple of the court. Naturally, he would seize the opportunity to praise the Mantis Snake Court’s cultivation technique.

Not many people knew the true situation on Mist Island better than Chen Yiming. He held back his laughter and nodded. “You have a point. The black fog internal force is indeed good for escaping.”

Xu Zhang’s expression froze. The moment this disciple from the Mantis Snake Court spoke, he had lowered the value of the Mantis Snake Sword Technique. He did not know how to continue.

Usually, sword techniques focused on killing, and the Mantis Snake Sword Technique was naturally the same. In the dark night, it was often difficult for the enemy to withstand the fast sword attacks coming under the cover of darkness.

Chen Yiming was only using the black fog internal force as a support because the strength-based internal force was more compatible with his Undying Body talent.

After a moment of awkwardness, Xu Zhang immediately changed the topic. “Even though they were both facing the willow tree king, I heard that the sect master of the Kunshan Sect died on the island, but the sect master of the Myriad Phenomena Sect was unharmed.

This is really too impressive. The difference between the two sides is obvious. From now on, the Kunshan Sect will definitely be left far behind.”

Chen Yiming smiled and said, “That’s just a rumor. The sect master of the Kunshan Sect was forced to retreat during the fight with the masked man. His internal force must have been greatly exhausted. This might be the reason why he died on the island.”

The sect master of the Kunshan Sect, Lu Zhenshan, had been killed by him. However, at that time, the entire Mist Island was covered in a thick mist, and only he knew the truth. Therefore, he could only use the scene that the spectators saw as an explanation.

Xu Zhang thought to himself,?“Of course I know this.”

However, this person was too straightforward. As a disciple of the Myriad Phenomena Sect, he actually did not elevate his own sect and belittle his enemy.

Xu Zhang could only agree. “That’s true. The sect master of the Kunshan Sect is a little unlucky. No one expected that the masked man would be so strong. The sect master was suppressed instead.”

Not long after, the convoy arrived at the funeral parlor in Coconut Island City.

At this moment, the entrance of the funeral parlor was completely cordoned off. There were people in charge of verifying their identities, and it was not like anyone could enter as they pleased.

As a disciple of the Myriad Phenomena Sect, Chen Yiming walked straight into the funeral parlor.

Xu Zhang, on the other hand, was stopped and asked to leave. Although he was a disciple of the Mantis Snake Sword School, the school was actually just an external organization that was used to search for talented people. He was not a true member of the Myriad Phenomena Sect.

The Xu clan was only a small martial arts clan in West Bamboo City. In a provincial city like Coconut Island City, they did not amount to much and he did not have the right to attend the memorial service.

The funeral parlor was filled with many people who had come to attend the memorial service.

Other than the factions that had participated in the trip to Mist Island, they were mainly the upper echelons of the East Sea Province, including the government, the military, and some civilian factions.

Chen Yiming scanned the area and took some time before he found Zhou Xuesheng.

At this moment, the other two court heads of the Myriad Phenomena Sect were not around. There were a few disciples beside Zhou Xuesheng, and one of them was Su Mo’er, whom Chen Yiming had met before in the library.

Su Mo’er had previously given Chen Yiming the impression that she only wanted to cultivate on the mountain. She was very afraid of taking risks and was unwilling to leave the mountain to carry out missions.

However, she had actually followed Zhou Xuesheng to a dangerous place like Mist Island.

Chen Yiming thought of something.

It seemed like he was wrong. The chances of the willow tree king breaking through to the master realm were extremely low.

Most of the time, a large provincial sect like the Myriad Phenomena Sect would have three court heads protecting the disciples on Mist Island. No faction would dare to provoke them easily. This way, there would not be much danger.

“I didn’t expect so many people to come.”

Chen Yiming walked over and greeted them.

“You’re here,” Zhou Xuesheng said when he saw who it was.

“I wonder what happened that caused Master to call me over?” Chen Yiming asked.

Logically speaking, the Myriad Phenomena Sect was not in a situation like the Kunshan Sect, where the sect master had died. Although there were many people of different factions in the East Sea Province, no one would dare to attack the disciples of the Myriad Phenomena Sect.

“Jiangnan province has already started to prepare to build a long-term stronghold in the otherworld. After the sect master escaped from Mist Island, he has already been arranged to oversee it. Therefore, we need to be careful,” Zhou Xuesheng explained in a low voice.

Since the precious willow tree cores could mainly be found on Mist Island, the higher-ups of Jiangnan Province had originally planned to officially start the stronghold plan after the trip to Mist Island ended.

However, who would have thought that two sect masters of large sects would die in Jiangnan province on this trip to Mist Island?

However, this involved a huge plan by the entire Daxia Kingdom. Therefore, even if the top forces in Jiangnan province were weakened, they still had to follow the original plan.

This was an open secret among the upper echelons of Jiangnan province. However, Chen Yiming’s level was too low, so he didn’t know about it.
