I Can Enhance My Talents Using Unlimited Skill Points

471 The Beginning of the Empire

The new base of the humans from the blue planet was more than 1,000 kilometers long in length and width, and more than 100 kilometers tall. In the future, the size could still be adjusted to make it smaller and more hidden, or larger to accommodate more people. The latest_epi_sodes are on_the (f)ir(e).net

With the current technology, they only needed to build a large number of tall buildings with hundreds of floors. Residences for the population of billions of people was not a big problem.

The secret realm in the otherworld was essentially linked to the abandoned world, but in reality, it was located in the space-travel distortion. Therefore, after the influence of the space-travel distortion was isolated on the outside, it was not affected by any natural disasters.

In fact, the natural factors that were commonly seen on a planet, such as day and night, wind, rain, and the content of air, still had to be artificially simulated by high-tech equipment.

Otherwise, in the secret realm of the otherworld, the environment was almost constant. There were no living creatures there, and there were no signs of life anywhere. Instead, there was only a dead silence.

At some point.

“Buzz!”

Invisible ripples spread out.

The secret realm in the otherworld was suddenly quickly connected to the abandoned world. A large number of materials that could help living creatures cultivate appeared in the air, making the environment extremely suitable for cultivation.

Gao Shuai stepped on the ground a few times, and all traces disappeared.

The ground formed by the yellow mud was formed by Chen Yiming using the divine power of the Hidden Universe to cover the otherworld with a layer of soil that was hundreds of meters thick and mixed with rubble.

Earlier, Gao Shuai had buried the last crystal with an array formation engraved inside it, forming a series of essence energy formations. It could allow the materials that could aid in cultivation to flow into the otherworld.

Next, other than building the residences for the population of billions to live in, this secret realm had been modified into an environment suitable for living creatures to cultivate in seclusion.

“Thank you!”

Chen Yiming thanked Gao Shuai from the bottom of his heart.

If not for Gao Shuai’s help, it would probably have taken a long time for the humans from the blue planet to truly descend into the abandoned world. They might have encountered all kinds of difficulties during the process.

After the billions of humans were settled down, Chen Yiming would be able to relax. At the very least, he wouldn’t have to worry too much about the human base being threatened at all times.

“The immortal factions have brought many good things to North Mountain City.”

Gao Shuai had a smile on his face. He flipped his left palm, and a circular mark appeared in his palm. This was formed by the spatial item of the city ruler, and it had been very useful during the chaotic battle between the immortals and gods.

Chen Yiming had obtained the huge rock forming the space teleportation portal, which was undoubtedly the best treasure.

Gao Shuai had stolen a lot of treasures from the immortal factions and did not participate in the battle. It was equivalent to taking advantage of the situation without any risk to himself, and he had definitely made a huge profit.

At this moment, more and more cries of surprise erupted in the secret realm.

“I broke through!”

“This... this is unbelievable!”

Some people broke through the bottleneck in their cultivation on the spot and went from a warrior candidate to a warrior. Naturally, internal force would be born in their bodies.

In fact, the number of martial masters had also exploded. A large number of people who had reached the peak of the warrior realm and could not resonate with the power of nature previously suddenly felt the power of nature clearly.

This was due to the difference in the cultivation environment, which caused the threshold for cultivation to be lowered. This indirectly widened the path of cultivation for those who were not talented enough.

It had to be known that in the abandoned world, those with internal force were at the bottom of the hierarchy. Many children had already mastered this power from a young age. Only true gods could barely be considered big shots.

“By the way, one of your people suggested using this secret realm as the base to build an empire and gradually conquer the abandoned world,” Gao Shuai said casually.

After passing on the helm for a few generations, it was easy for all kinds of problems to cause a country to quickly fall into decline. However, if the first emperor’s lifespan was so long that it was almost eternal, these problems would no longer exist.

On the contrary, because of the concentration of power and the strength of the first emperor, the entire empire would show astonishing initiative and endurance, which was beneficial for expanding its territory.

This way, they would not change their direction because of momentary setbacks. They would have a huge advantage over those who were relatively disorganized, such as the immortal factions, alliances, sects, and so on.

Chen Yiming wasn’t interested in becoming an emperor. He asked, “The Gao clan didn’t establish an empire either, right? If even an inter-galactic overlord faction didn’t do it, is there a need for the humans from the blue planet to establish an empire?”

When Gao Shuai heard this, he smiled and said, “Who said that the Gao clan had never established an empire? It is just that it was hundreds of thousands of years ago. Moreover, that powerful elder is still alive and is cultivating in seclusion in the ancestral land.”

With that, he continued to introduce the history of the inter-galactic overlord faction, the Gao clan.

It turned out that the first emperor with the surname Gao had also come from an inhabited planet like Chen Yiming. Of course, he didn’t come from a low-level inhabited planet like the blue planet.

The powerful first emperor with the surname Gao led the empire to conquer the inhabited planet they came from. Then, they started to fight in outer space and defeated powerful enemies one after another. They occupied one inhabited planet after another and expanded the empire’s territory.

As time passed, many, many years later, the bloodline of the first emperor gradually spread to all the people in the faction due to his powerful innate talent.

Later, since everyone in the empire had the bloodline of the first emperor, they used the name of the Gao clan when they traveled to the outside world.

From a clan to an empire and back to a clan, the current overlord faction, the Gao clan, had evolved in this way. Their clansmen were scattered across many galaxies.

Hearing this, Chen Yiming felt that it made sense.

At the moment, the higher-ups of the human race from the blue planet were relying on Chen Yiming to decide the overall situation due to their lack of strength. They were like tools that could not make their own decisions.

There was a high chance that Chen Yiming wouldn’t be able to guard the secret realm all year round.

For a civilization that was half technology-based and half cultivation-based, with the various factions within it still rapidly changing in strength, it would be good enough if they did not fall into a prolonged internal strife. They were completely unable to participate in the battles in the abandoned world.

Among the humans from the blue planet, the mainstream thought was that Chen Yiming would only leave behind a strong trump card to deal with surprise attacks from any enemies for now.

For the rest of the time, he would go into seclusion just like the elders of the martial arts sects. As long as nothing major happened, such as a threat that could exterminate all the humans from the blue planet, he would probably ignore everything and focus on his own cultivation.

Chen Yiming thought about it again. The more territory they occupied, the greater the target.

What good would it do? At most, he would be able to obtain some faithful believers, similar to the inhabited planet that the machine civilization had invaded.

The knights were continuously providing him with their faith, which could be converted into Skill Points, but the speed of the conversion couldn’t keep up with Chen Yiming’s requirements.

The number of Skill Points he needed to upgrade a talent was too large. Tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, or even millions of Skill Points were just a drop in the bucket.

The topic of establishing an empire quickly passed.

Chen Yiming hadn’t thought it through completely. An empire would naturally be useful in the long term, but it would undoubtedly be more troublesome in the short term.

...

The entrance of the secret realm was located in the mountains on the far west of the south mountain range. It was a relatively remote area.

There were not many factions in this area, and most of them were village-level factions. There were only mountains around them. If one did not fly into the sky, their field of vision would be relatively narrow.

Chen Yiming and Gao Shuai exited the secret realm.

In the distance, there was a team in charge of guarding the area. They climbed to the top of the mountains and used their relatively wide field of view to monitor whether any outsiders were approaching.

Before they parted ways, the two of them talked about the source ore shops.

Gao Shuai said bluntly, “My butler sent me a message that after the immortal factions disappeared without a trace, the factions behind the source ore shops started to panic when faced with a thorough search by the Infinite Island Group.”

Hearing this, Chen Yiming understood that Gao Shuai was trying to trick them again.

Helping the source ore shops to truly form an alliance and go against the factions from the Infinite Island Group was something Gao Shuai had been working hard to do.

However, the source ore shops were still in seclusion at the moment. They did not want to use up too much of their own strength, and preferred to rope in external forces.

The corners of Gao Shuai’s mouth curled up as he continued, “In short, although it’s not clear how the source ore shops will deal with it at the moment, as long as they make a move, they won’t be able to truly hide from the world. The Infinite Island Group won’t give up so easily.”

Chen Yiming nodded when he heard this.

Indeed, the factions from the Infinite Island Group appeared to be the only overlord faction in the south mountain range at the moment.

Then, there was no reason for them to give up when they had the right time, place, and conditions. They would only free up more forces to find and wipe out the factions behind the source ore shops one by one.

Soon, Gao Shuai left, and his figure disappeared into the mountains.

Chen Yiming returned to the secret realm in the otherworld and went to the Chen family’s temporary residence. It was a large villa with all the facilities. There was a garden, a swimming pool, a cultivation square, and so on.

Along the way, the cultivation environment in the otherworld had visibly improved, and the influence was still spreading.

This was a moment that could be written into the history books of humans from the blue planet. There was no need for anyone to organize a celebration. The crowd spontaneously walked onto the streets to express their excitement.

The officials did not even stop them. They even allowed the various construction sites to take a break and put the reconstruction of their civilization on hold to join in the celebration.

“Brother, there are rumors that you are about to ascend the throne and become the emperor of the Daxia Kingdom. Is that true?”

As soon as he entered, he saw Chen Yingying running out.

Chen Yiming rolled his eyes and said, “What are you thinking? Don’t tell me you have a dream of becoming a princess? Why don’t you take the throne instead? Isn’t a queen more impressive than a princess?”

Chen Yingying pouted when she heard this.

So it was fake news. She didn’t believe it at first, because Chen Yiming didn’t care about such matters in the past, such as the Myriad Phenomena Sect on the blue planet and the Myriad Phenomena Academy in the spaceship.

All along, he had made a name for himself. After that, it was basically equivalent to developing himself freely.

Of course, be it the Myriad Phenomena Sect or the Myriad Phenomena Academy, they used Chen Yiming’s name to continue their development without facing any obstacles. They even received various special privileges along the way.

Soon, the topic changed.

Chen Yiming sized up his sister. The more he looked at her, the more he felt that she was useless. He immediately said, “Your progress is too slow. You’re not talented enough, and you can’t cultivate diligently. You have to go out and train.”

Chen Yingying’s eyes widened. This training was different from the previous ones. There was no comparison between the abandoned world and the blue planet. It was really too dangerous here.

Not long ago, a team of elite scouts had lost more than half of their soldiers before they could successfully return to the secret realm. It had to be known that a general at the master realm was leading the team.

Many people had seen the scene back then. According to rumors, the people chasing after the elite soldiers were only youths from a few villages, and they were not all from the same village.

In other words, if they got rid of Chen Yiming and the subsidiary races he had subdued, an ordinary village in the abandoned world would have a power that the humans from the blue planet would find difficult to deal with.

An entire civilization was inferior to a single village. The humans from the blue planet were too weak.

Therefore, how could Chen Yingying dare to leave the secret realm in the otherworld and go outside at will, let alone go out to train? There was a high chance that she would not be able to defeat any living creature there.

...

The cultivation environment in the secret realm was no different from the outside world. For the next few days, Chen Yiming started to explain the simplified techniques for the divine powers which were suitable cultivation techniques for warriors.

He had already completed the simplification of these techniques when he was teaching the young men and women in the village. He had confirmed that there would not be any problems with their cultivation.

The voice explaining the cultivation technique echoed in the secret realm like a bell. Anyone could hear it, no matter where they were.

For example, the Reversal Palm was simplified into a killing technique that was divided into 36 stances.

The first 12 moves corresponded to the third stage of the warrior realm. The middle 12 moves were suitable for those above the warrior realm and below the gods, and the last 12 moves corresponded to those at the level of gods.

At the moment, no one from the blue planet was qualified to cultivate the last 12 moves. However, among the subsidiary races that he had subdued, the three dragon gods had a chance of mastering them to some extent.

After all, the fusion of the 36 stances was the complete Reversal Palm divine power. With the talent and cultivation level of the three dragon gods, they were still far from being able to cultivate divine powers.

Countless people listened carefully to the explanation, and obtained a deep understanding of the technique. After finishing the work assigned to them, they cultivated on the spot.

This kind of cultivation technique that was simplified from divine powers was completely incomparable to the cultivation techniques on the blue planet. Not only was the upper limit more compatible with the natural laws of the world, but it was also very easy for one to crush those of the same level after comprehending the essence of such techniques.

A cultivation technique with more potential, and a better cultivation environment.

The martial arts practitioners were quickly divided into different levels based on their innate talent, their understanding of cultivation techniques, adaptability, and many other factors.

Some people made small gains, some people had obvious improvements, and some people soared into the sky. The factions of the humans from the blue planet were rapidly rebuilding their foundation.

At the same time, the conflict between the humans from the blue planet and the surrounding villages gradually became more and more intense.

When the village saw how weak the intruders were, they naturally did not hesitate to send out more people to chase after them.

It was not that the humans from the blue planet had never tried to communicate with them, but in the eyes of the village, the weak were not qualified to negotiate with them.

This was the rule of the wilderness that had been established in the abandoned world over countless years. Only by completely defeating and subduing the enemy could they enter the negotiation stage.

Chen Yiming didn’t make a move to eliminate the villages within a radius of 1,000 kilometers around the coordinates of the secret realm.

The first reason was that the village-level factions would be left for the humans from the blue planet to train their war strategies and for them to quickly adapt to living in the abandoned world.

The second reason was that once he made a move, he would definitely crush them completely, and the factions from the Infinite Island Group that were searching for the factions from the source ore shops would be alerted.

In order to hide the location of the entrance to the secret realm to the greatest extent, he could not reveal too much of his power. Otherwise, it was very easy to attract more attention.
