I Can Enhance My Talents Using Unlimited Skill Points

Chapter 52 Dungeon

Under the stalemate, the air was filled with dust.

After each failed attempt, the woman in the black dress did not stop, but turned around and charged at him on the rebound.

All the force from the charge was focused on the blade. The force was spread along the thin edge of the blade, greatly increasing its cutting power. Chen Yiming’s expression remained unchanged. With a focused gaze, he raised his sword to meet the attack. “Clang!”

The two swords clashed.

In the next moment, Chen Yiming didn’t take the attack head-on. Instead, he withdrew his sword and dodged to the side.

The woman in the black dress brushed past him and slashed at the tree behind him.

“Crack!”

A beam of light flashed past.

The tree was cut in half, and the top half slid off, landing horizontally in the middle of the road.

It was his turn to attack.

“Watch me,” Chen Yiming reminded his opponent. His figure shot forward, and the ground was pressed down by the force of his foot, creating a footprint half an inch deep.

Chen Yiming used the Mantis Snake Sword Technique’s short-range explosive move. All the force was focused on the tip of the black sword, as though it was trying to pierce through the woman.

The distance of less than ten meters was covered in the blink of an eye.

With the enhancement from the fast and explosive style of the Mantis Snake Sword Technique, his speed was even faster than the average person who had undergone three transformations.

“Don’t even think about it!” The woman’s expression changed slightly.

She instantly exerted strength from under her feet and leaped up, her figure moving to the side.

Chen Yiming’s counterattack, which he had intended to use as a warning, had naturally failed.

The black sword struck a rock by the roadside, and the rock was instantly blown to bits. It was as though a bomb inside of it had exploded.

After exchanging more than ten blows, the woman in the black dress felt more alarmed the more they fought. The Mantis Snake Sword Technique, which combined speed and lethality, was undoubtedly superior to the Water Splitting Sword Technique, which only enhanced the lethality of her attacks.

Even if Chen Yiming suppressed his speed to the same level as his opponent, the speed boost from his moves increased the pressure placed on the woman in the black dress.

Both of them were using agility-based fighting styles. Their difference in speed would cause the advantages and disadvantages they had over one another to be enhanced.

The faster side only needed to land a critical hit to immediately win the fight.

The slower side had almost no chance to launch an effective attack.

Chen Yiming had a calm expression, and his face revealed no signs of anxiousness.

Using the small figure in his mind, he was secretly learning the Water Splitting Sword Technique.

The moves of the Water Splitting Sword Technique were simple and straightforward. The core of the technique was in how one used the force to increase the cutting power.

It was different from the Mantis Snake Sword Technique, which involved the combination of speed and penetrative force making the moves much more complicated.

Deng Hu, who was waiting in the distance, paced back and forth.

“Should I leave or stay?” He was feeling very conflicted.

Initially, when he saw Chen Yiming finish off the three subordinates of the woman in the black dress, it seemed like everything was under Chen Yiming’s control.

But from the current situation, Chen Yiming and the woman in the black dress were evenly matched. Neither of them could do anything to the other even after such a long fight.

It was hard to say who would win or lose.

Chen Yiming dodged another attack.

The woman turned around and retreated to widen the distance between them.

She felt that if she continued to fight with him, her life would be in danger once her stamina decreased.

There was no need for her to risk her life fighting the opponent, so she planned to slowly make a retreat while they fought.

Seeing this, Chen Yiming kicked off from the ground and charged at the woman in the black dress.

His true level was at the sixth transformation, and his vision was even better than the woman in the black dress.

He had noticed all the movements of the woman’s intentional retreat.

He had already secretly learned the Water Splitting Sword Technique, so there was no value in keeping his opponent alive. Even if she had no intention of retreating, he was also preparing to get rid of her immediately.

“You’re good,” the woman in the black dress said.

As she quickly retreated, she raised her sword to block Chen Yiming’s attack.

The two of them were too close, so it was not easy to retreat.

“Swish!”

Suddenly, the woman in the black dress widened her eyes in disbelief.

The black sword in Chen Yiming’s hand pierced through her chest.

The force from the black sword instantly destroyed all her internal organs.

“How could this happen?” The woman in black dress wanted to ask, but she couldn’t make a sound.

Was her opponent still hiding his strength? Why would he do that?

In an instant, countless questions flashed through her mind like lightning.

“You…”

The woman in the black dress fell to the ground with countless questions in her mind.

Blood spurted from her chest, quickly dying her black dress red.

At this moment, Chen Yiming had already sheathed his sword and retreated a few meters away to avoid the blood that was splattering out.

“Mister Chen.” Deng Hu ran over when he saw that the woman in the black dress had been stabbed to death.

In his heart, he was glad that he did not escape immediately.

Chen Yiming couldn’t be bothered to reply. He squatted down and started to loot the bodies.

Soon, he found a sealed document on the woman in the black dress.

“This should be the details of the job assigned to the team led by her,” said Deng Hu.

Chen Yiming tore open the envelope and took out the document. He flipped through it page by page.

He learned that the woman’s name was Wen Mengyu and that she had been assigned to the vicinity of the transfer point to the east of the city. She was in charge of guarding the transfer point for a week.

“The transfer point should be the place where the captives are temporarily detained.” Deng Hu quickly analyzed the situation. Chen Yiming nodded. “We have already wasted a lot of time. It will be troublesome if they get transported somewhere else. Let’s hurry up,” Chen Yiming urged.

His tone unconsciously carried the killing intent from when he fought the woman in black.

Deng Hu shuddered and shut up.

Only then did he remember that the person in front of him had mercilessly killed his opponents.

Hence, he quickly led the way.

Deep in the forest, there was a cave entrance with a mud slope behind it.

The entrance was as big as a door, and there were guards patrolling around it with torches in their hands.

There were a total of more than ten guards, and all of them were equipped with weapons. Clearly, the defense was not weak.

Chen Yiming and Deng Hu saw the flames from afar and took a detour behind a large tree to observe the situation.

At the bottom of the hole was probably a temporary dungeon where people were being held captive. It was impossible to tell what was going on inside from the outside.

“How do you think we should go in and rescue them?” Chen Yiming asked.

Deng Hu was a detective and should have some experience in this aspect. He wanted to hear what ideas the other party had.

“It’s best if we capture a guard first and find out the exact situation inside the cave. Then, we can come up with a detailed rescue plan,” Deng Hu replied.

This was the safest and most reliable way to rescue someone.

“In the end, we still have to go in and rescue them. Why waste the additional time?” Chen Yiming rolled his eyes. “Er… that’s true.” Deng Hu did not know how to refute him.

“Why don’t you capture someone to interrogate first, Mister Chen? At the very least, you can get a rough idea of the situation down there to prevent us from falling into a trap,” Deng Hu suggested.

Chen Yiming thought about it carefully and observed the situation at the cave entrance.

The guards were about a meter away from each other, and it was almost impossible to capture one of them without being noticed.

If he followed Deng Hu’s plan, he would waste at least ten minutes.

What if the other party had somehow discovered that the woman in the black dress had been killed? Then, the other guard teams would surround and attack him.

At that time, he did not know if he could deal with the situation just by using his strength at the level of the third transformation.

Rather than causing more trouble for himself, he might as well charge in and rescue them directly.

“Wait here. I’ll go over alone,” Chen Yiming said as he made his decision.

Once he finished speaking, he vanished from sight.
