I Can Enhance My Talents Using Unlimited Skill Points

Chapter 172: Movement (II)

It was obvious that the cloud mist fruit was not just a treasure from the Xu clan’s collection since they were able to give out three at once as a reward. There was a high chance that they had some way of producing it continuously.

At the same time, he grew more interested in the warrior clans in the East Sea province. The human factions in the East Sea were much weaker than those in the mainland, but they had more resources.

Chen Yiming had previously faced off against the giant three-tailed turtle that was guarding a strange tree. It was at the second stage of the warrior realm, while the Xu clan was only an ordinary warrior clan. How could they own a mutant plant?

Xu Zhang smiled confidently and said, “That’s right. With the Xu clan’s help, becoming a true disciple of the Myriad Phenomena Sect will not be a dream.”

At this point, Xu Zhang felt relieved and thought that everything was falling into place.

He did not think that any inner sect disciple of the Mantis Snake Court could resist such a temptation.

The cloud mist fruit could only serve a support role, and comprehending the concept diagram depended mainly on one’s own talent. However, no one knew if it would really be effective for them.

As long as most people acknowledged that the cloud mist fruit was useful for comprehending the internal force of the smoke attribute, the cloud mist fruit would have a corresponding value.

“Let’s see what happens first.”

Chen Yiming was a man of his word, so he didn’t make a promise easily.

His goal was still the willow tree cores on Mist Island. After his trip to Mist Island, he would consider it if it was not too troublesome.

When Xu Zhang heard this, his expression froze.

This was not the answer he wanted at all. For a moment, he felt short of breath, and he was rooted to the spot.

Xu Zhang could only blame himself for being too unlucky. Any other disciple of the Mantis Snake Court who accepted this mission would probably not be able to resist the temptation.

However, it just so happened that a fight had broken out on the East Sea Mist Island, and various factions from the East Sea province had surged in. The other disciples felt that the risk they would be taking was not proportional to the gains they would receive, so no one was willing to accept this mission.

After all, not everyone was like Chen Yiming, who could complete the missing concept diagrams just by eating two mutant fruits.

Otherwise, the heads of the large sects would not have such a status. The truth was that it was extremely difficult to master the transformation of internal force. Even true disciples only had a chance of mastering it, and most of them would fail in the end.

The break was short, and it was mainly for Xu Zhang, whose body couldn’t take it anymore. Chen Yiming quickly grabbed Xu Zhang again and continued on their way.

…

A few hours later, the two of them arrived at a beach opposite East Sea province.

Chen Yiming put Xu Zhang down again and looked out at the vast sea.

A few kilometers away, an aquatic mutant beast suddenly appeared on the surface of the sea, creating a huge wave that was dozens of meters tall.

This aquatic mutant beast had evolved from an unknown fish. Its body was more than 20 meters long, and from its aura, it was only at the ordinary warrior realm. However, its size was completely different from the land-based mutant beasts.

If a human, who was also in the warrior realm, was bitten and dragged by it to the bottom of the sea, it would be almost impossible for the human to fight against the strength of its internal force.

At this moment, Xu Zhang’s legs were trembling and he was about to cry. “Big Brother, are we really not going to Heron Port City to cross the sea?”

Chen Yiming rolled his eyes and said calmly, “It’s fine if you want to go back on your word. I’ll leave you here. Get someone to bring you across the sea or back to Three Rivers City.”

He had already set out half a day late. If he continued to dawdle, there would be nothing left for him on Mist Island.

If Xu Zhang was afraid, he would not even need to go to East Sea province and could just rush to Mist Island.

Xu Zhang broke out in a cold sweat, not knowing what to do.

He was too unlucky to have encountered a disciple from the Myriad Phenomena Sect who was not in his right mind.

As long as a warrior avoided danger in advance, the chances of something going wrong were very low. Every year, only a few unlucky ones would die when attempting a sea crossing.

However, he was not a warrior. If a team of warriors tried to cross the sea together, they would be able to take care of each other. The mutant beasts at the ordinary warrior realm would not dare to provoke them.

The probability of encountering an aquatic mutant beast at the second stage of the warrior realm was similar to finding a needle in a haystack. After all, the sea was too vast.

Most of the aquatic mutant beasts of this level were also located in the deep sea, and the probability of encountering them when they surfaced was extremely low.

Seeing that the other party couldn’t make a decision, Chen Yiming suggested, “How about this? Go to Heron Harbor City and find someone to escort you across the sea.

There should be quite a number of warrior teams accepting such jobs over there. Let’s meet up again in West Bamboo City where your clan is.”

For the Xu clan’s problem, there wasn’t much difference if he delayed it for a day or two. After leaving Xu Zhang here, Chen Yiming could head straight to Mist Island.

“Sure.”

Xu Zhang’s eyes lit up. He also felt that this was a good suggestion.

It wasn’t that he didn’t believe in Chen Yiming’s strength, but he felt that Chen Yiming didn’t have any experience crossing the sea. In addition, he would be a burden.

Without the protection of a team formed by several warriors, even if he encountered some enemy that was too strong for him to deal with, it wouldn’t be difficult for Chen Yiming, who was in the warrior realm, to make an escape. However, he would be in trouble as someone in the disciple realm.

“Then take care of yourself.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Yiming’s figure disappeared in a flash.

In the next moment, his figure had already reappeared on the sea dozens of meters away. Xu Zhang was left alone by the sea with the sea breeze howling in his ears.

“Bang…”

The surface of the sea exploded continuously, and the figure sped across the surface of the sea until it became smaller and smaller, gradually turning into a black dot that finally disappeared into the horizon.

“Dad, wait for me. Only the two of us know about the island where the cloud mist tree is. How can Third Uncle fight against us?”

Xu Zhang cheered himself on in his heart and let out a low roar. He quickly rushed off in the direction of Heron Port City.

…

Mist Island was located in the northeast of East Sea province, about 400 to 500 nautical miles away.

This distance was not too far. Countries separated by the sea were usually thousands or even tens of thousands of nautical miles apart.

With such a long distance between them, when faced with the threat of the aquatic mutant beasts in the sea, not only were ships unable to sail across the sea, but even ordinary warriors would not dare to cross such a distance easily.

As a result, in this era on the blue planet, there was very little communication between the countries that were separated by the sea. Most of the new humans born after the arrival of the space-travel passages could not even name the countries across the sea.

Chen Yiming sped across the surface of the sea.

His internal force continued to explode, and he covered a distance of hundreds of meters in one leap.

The aquatic mutant beasts watching the surface of the sea from underwater could only see a black shadow continuously across the surface.

From the distance he moved with each leap, one could tell that he wasn’t someone to be trifled with. Therefore, very few mutant beasts dared to jump out of the water and attack Chen Yiming.

Chen Yiming sighed.

“It’s so boring on the sea.”

He originally wanted to find a few suitable opponents and have some quick battles. He would be killing time while also testing whether he could crush the mutant beasts in the sea at the same level.

However, a mutant beast at the second stage of the warrior realm probably wouldn’t be interested in a small fry like him who had hardly any meat on his bones.

Feeling a little angry, Chen Yiming unleashed his internal force and leaped hundreds of meters into the air.

While in midair, he threw out his strongest finishing move, the 100-meter-long sword formed by four huge rocks created from his internal force.

“Boom!”

With a loud bang, a bowl-shaped hole with a diameter of more than 1,000 meters was opened up on the surface of the sea. Countless weak aquatic mutant beasts that were active near the surface of the sea were killed by the shock waves caused by the collision.

Due to the acceleration under the influence of gravity, although the huge sword was only a few hundred meters away, the impact from the collision was greatly increased.

However, Chen Yiming couldn’t win against the sea’s ability to restore itself.

Immediately after, a large amount of seawater flowed back into the bowl-shaped hole, and it quickly returned to its original state.

Chen Yiming landed back on the surface of the sea and swept his gaze across the area.

The surface of the sea in a range of a few kilometers was dyed red. However, even though there were countless corpses of mutant beasts floating on the surface of the sea, the mutant beasts in the deep sea did not make any movement at all.

After waiting for a few more minutes, not even a single mutant beast at the warrior realm appeared.

Chen Yiming shook his head. He didn’t know if it was because the commotion wasn’t big enough, or if the mutant beasts in the sea didn’t care for the food. After all, the sea was full of creatures.

However, he did not have time to waste here. He could only confirm the direction of Mist Island again and continue on his way.

10 to 20 minutes later, all was silent again.

Suddenly, a huge mouth about five meters in diameter emerged from the water and swallowed a large number of corpses in one big gulp.

In the next few minutes, more and more mutant sea creatures appeared. There were those in the disciple realm, and a few in the warrior realm.

The large number of corpses were quickly eaten up, and the sea regained its calm, leaving only the whistling of the sea breeze.
