I Can Enhance My Talents Using Unlimited Skill Points

Chapter 293: Controlling The Kunshan Sect

After leaving Jiangnan City, there were many tall buildings behind him. Smoke rose from the chimneys of the industrial park, and thick black smoke rose towards the clouds.

In the wilderness in front of him, there were still a large number of people from other provinces heading towards Jiangdu City. However, the path that adventurers often took was empty. It was much quieter than usual.

From time to time, birds would fly past in the sky. They would circle overhead a few times before flying into the distance.

Chen Yiming looked up at the sky and decided to head to the strange mountain village to resolve the hidden danger.

The development of the otherworld was irreversible, and he had contributed greatly to it.

Before the appearance of the space-travel passages, the mutant beasts were just meat for humans. A large number of species were on the verge of extinction, and they had no choice but to build a wildlife park to help them reproduce.

Now that they had the ability to create a more stable environment, they should re-establish the glory of humanity and take back control of the wilderness.

…

“What is the Kunshan Sect trying to do in broad daylight?”

A group of three large trucks was stopped. A middle-aged man was arguing with them, and the people following behind him had angry expressions on their faces.

“Cut the crap. You can choose whether you want money or your lives.”

A disciple of the Kunshan Sect, who looked to be in his thirties, had an impatient expression on his face. He was about to attack if there was a disagreement.

The traders had never thought that the Kunshan Sect would throw away their reputation and behave like bandits.

......

“Fine! Qian Yong Trading Company will admit defeat. Xiao Zhang, go get the keys from the car.”

The middle-aged man hesitated for a moment, but in the end, he chose to spend his money to avert the disaster. At this moment, the Kunshan Sect had weakened to an unprecedented level, but it was still not something that a small trading company could provoke.

The young man called Xiao Zhang ran towards the large truck at the back in a disorderly manner. This incident had overturned his worldview, and his good image of the large provincial sects collapsed.

When Xiao Zhang handed over the car key to the middle-aged man, the middle-aged man’s heart was bleeding. A truck full of daily cultivation consumables would be taken away by the Kunshan Sect just like that.

It had to be known that the overall price of goods in Jiangdu City had soared. The profits that could be earned by the trading companies were at least four to five times that of normal.

It was unknown how long this situation would last. This situation was equivalent to a trading company working freely for the Kunshan Sect.

“This is the key to the truck at the back.”

The middle-aged man handed the key to the disciple from the Kunshan Sect. His hands were trembling as he did so. This key represented a large sum of money.

“At least your company knows its place.”

The Kunshan Sect disciple took the key and walked to the large truck at the back.

The martial arts factions in Jiangnan province and other provinces could go to the otherworld through the base city, but the Kunshan Sect could not.

As Chen Yiming displayed his combat strength at the master realm, the identity of the masked man was no longer a secret. It was just that the higher-ups of the government and the various factions pretended not to know about it.

The Kunshan Sect had been put in an awkward situation because of this. They were the only large sect in Jiangnan province that had a grudge against the masked man. Without Chen Yiming’s permission, Jiangdu City had tacitly rejected the requests from the disciples of the Kunshan Sect to buy train tickets to the base city.

It could be said that the Kunshan Sect had lost its sect master and all its allies. They had already been forced into a corner and had nowhere to retreat to. They could not even get sufficient consumables for their daily cultivation.

…

Chen Yiming was rushing towards the strange mountain village when he bumped into a Kunshan Sect disciple robbing a trading company.

He frowned. The Kunshan Sect had actually fallen to such a state. What was the difference between them and the evil factions hiding in the wilderness? Not only did they not play a role in stabilizing the situation, but they were also causing trouble.

With this thought, streams of air began to circle in midair, turning into a huge palm that finally slammed down on the Kunshan Sect disciple.

“Bang!”

With a loud bang, the ground caved in by a meter, forming a huge pit and raising a cloud of dust.

The Kunshan Sect disciple had just raised his head to look at the sky, and before he could react, his blood and flesh was mixed together with the soil, creating a bloody mess.

The people from the trading company looked at each other and fell silent. For a moment, they could not tell what the person’s motive was. Was he trying to help them? Or was he a tiger that had a bigger appetite than the wolves?

Chen Yiming walked over. “Tell me about the situation on the trade route.”

Hearing this, the middle-aged man relaxed and explained, “Before our trading company set off, we knew that the road had not been peaceful recently. Some evil factions in the wilderness were robbing passing merchant groups. We just didn’t expect the Kunshan Sect to do such a thing.”

Chen Yiming asked again, “There should be many trading companies heading to Jiangdu City. Didn’t anyone go to the province to report the robbery?”

The middle-aged man smiled bitterly and replied, “It’s said that most of the troops from Jiangnan province have been mobilized to the otherworld. For example, that disciple from the Kunshan Sect only wanted to take a portion of the money and did not kill anyone. He made sure that the matter was not too serious so that the higher-ups would turn a blind eye to it.”

Chen Yiming frowned. People moved for their own profit. The benefits from the otherworld were too enticing, even for the Jiangnan provincial government.

As for the headquarters in Jiangnan province, not only were they facing external threats, but their internal affairs were also undergoing huge changes. Countless gazes were fixed on Jiangdu City, and the evil factions in the wilderness were also secretly taking a share of the loot.

…

The sun gradually set in the west, and the clouds in the sky seemed to be dyed red.

Chen Yiming turned around and looked at the end of the road. He took a deep breath and changed directions to go to the Kunshan Sect first.

The entrance to the Kunshan Sect was still where it used to be. Previously, it was one of the six large provincial sects in Jiangnan province, and its overall strength was above average.

However, they currently lacked a sect master, and several inner court heads had died. Their strength had fallen to the bottom, and they were only left with the reputation of a large provincial sect.

A young man was walking alone in the wilderness. Every step he took seemed to allow him to teleport 100 meters away in the blink of an eye.

When the people lying in ambush in the forest saw this scene, they were so frightened that they did not dare to breathe too loudly. They held their breaths and prayed for peace in their hearts.

They were robbing and stealing from others, and could not stand up to any investigation. They were afraid that this unknown expert would act in the name of justice.

Chen Yiming ignored these small fries. As long as he could intimidate them enough, the robbery of the merchant groups heading to Jiangdu City would stop.

…

Not long after, he arrived at the foot of the mountain where the Kunshan Sect was located.

Unlike the lively town at the foot of the Myriad Phenomena Sect, the small villages at the foot of the Kunshan Sect were all abandoned. No one had lived there for a long time.

Chen Yiming sized it up with a serious expression. He had a feeling that something was definitely wrong with the Kunshan Sect. It was as if the sect was sealed off from the outside world.

Just as he stopped for a moment, a team of four rushed over.

They were all wearing the standard attire of the Kunshan Sect, and there was a faint black aura hidden under the skin on their faces. They looked wild, crazy, and bloodthirsty.

The leader of the group of Kunshan Sect disciples shouted at Chen Yiming, “This isn’t a place where you should be. Get lost!”

The other three Kunshan Sect disciples looked at Chen Yiming with a hint of hunger in their eyes. They subconsciously licked the corners of their mouths.

Chen Yiming took in their expressions. He had wanted to check what had happened to the Kunshan Sect, but he now understood that there was definitely something wrong with the sect. It was probably related to the strange village.

With a flick of his finger, a stream of energy pierced through one of the leader’s legs. Before the other party could react, he was down on one knee, and a large area of his injured leg was dyed red.

The remaining three disciples of the Kunshan Sect realized that they were in trouble. The black aura on their faces instantly covered their bodies and turned into oval-shaped black spots.

At the same time, a spiritual fluctuation mixed with madness, bloodlust, and killing intent charged at Chen Yiming.

“Although it’s not materialized spiritual power, ordinary warriors will definitely be unable to focus on the battle after being disturbed by this spiritual fluctuation.”

Chen Yiming made a judgment.

He flicked his finger again, and three streams of energy rushed out, striking the legs of the remaining three people. The black spots seemed to be able to predict what was going to happen, and all of them gathered at the spot where the energy had struck.

“Bang!”

The black spots were blown away by the streams of energy and left the bodies of the three people.

The energy streams were formed by Chen Yiming mobilizing the power of nature. Each stream was equivalent to a super heavy bullet, and their lethality was far greater than appeared on the surface.

After defeating the four of them, he extended his spiritual power and grabbed the remnants of the black spots that had fallen on the ground.

“Still alive?”

Chen Yiming frowned. He could sense that the aura on the black spots was still there. This was not a level that the Kunshan Sect could reach.

He walked up to the four of them and kicked the leader. “Tell me what happened in the Kunshan Sect.”

“Hahaha! Just you wait. Someone will come down the mountain to deal with you soon.”

Chen Yiming’s expression turned cold and he stepped on the person.

A white stream of air surrounded his feet, like a huge mountain bringing with it a strong pressure. Before he could actually step on his opponent’s body, it had already sunk deep into the ground, turning into a flat pancake sandwiched by mud.

Chen Yiming looked at the three disciples of the Kunshan Sect who were still alive. When their gazes met, they felt like they had been transported from a sauna into a world of ice and snow. They couldn’t help but tremble.

“Can you answer me now?”

The three Kunshan Sect disciples hurriedly nodded. Their teeth were chattering, making a clattering sound.

“I’ll ask again. What happened at the Kunshan Sect?”

“The disciples of the Kunshan Sect are divided into two groups. One group will rob the merchant groups heading to Jiangdu City, while the other group will be like us and patrol the area around the Kunshan Sect. Strangers are not allowed to get close.”

The black spots had completely separated from their bodies, and the three disciples were no longer being controlled. Their minds became clear, and they did not dare to hide anything.

Chen Yiming continued to ask, “Then what’s with the black aura on your faces?”

“We were arranged to enter a small pool. After soaking in it for a while, it became like that. In reality, we don’t know either, but Sect Master Cheng must know.”

Chen Yiming asked again, “Sect Master Cheng? Is he the previous inner court head called Cheng Shikun?”

“Yes.” The three of them nodded in unison.

Chen Yiming’s expression turned cold. The change in the Kunshan Sect was undoubtedly Cheng Shikun’s doing. It must have something to do with the strange mountain village.

He could not help but curse in his heart. As long as there was enough temptation, there had always been no shortage of traitors among the humans. If he had not intended to clean out Jiangnan province, he might not have been able to stop them in time.

After Chen Yiming turned around and left, the remaining three disciples of the Kunshan Sect endured the pain and struggled to get up.

“What should we do now?”

“Should we go back and report this to the sect master?”

“Are you courting death? Let’s observe the situation first. Wouldn’t it be better if we ran away?”

As soon as he finished speaking, three streams of energy flew over. Bang! Bang! Bang! They exploded into balls of blood, leaving large patches of blood behind.

…

Beside a small pond in the Kunshan Sect, the sect master, Cheng Shikun, was surrounded by a black aura. His aura was as dark as an abyss, carrying all kinds of negative emotions such as evil, killing, and despair.

He saw the black water boiling in the small pool and muttered to himself, “It seems that someone who has reached a certain level has sensed the abnormality in the Kunshan Sect.”

The two deputy sect masters, Shi Qingxin and Xu Zhansheng, were also surrounded by the black aura, but it was slightly fainter than Cheng Shikun’s.

“Can’t we hide it anymore?” Shi Qingxin frowned, his face twitching as he spoke.

Xu Zhansheng laughed wildly. “It doesn’t matter if we can’t hide it. Let’s kill this reckless guy and take advantage of the fact that no one really knows the situation to launch a surprise attack on Jiangnan City then return to the village immediately. We don’t have to panic at all.”

Cheng Shikun suddenly let out a sinister laugh. “Chen Yiming, just you wait! So what if you’re at the master realm? One day, my lord will descend into the human world. At that time, I’ll let you experience the pain that we have to endure.”

When Shi Qingxin and Xu Zhansheng heard this, the black aura around their bodies surged, and they were also affected and laughed.

In just a few months, the three of them had broken through to the half-step master realm. The black aura around them was their materialized spiritual power.

The internal force of the Five Labors and Seven Wounds Fist had even undergone a further transformation, turning into a true curse. Their lord had told the three of them that if they worked together to launch a sneak attack, they could even severely injure a martial master.

…

Just as the sect master and deputy sect masters of the Kunshan Sect decided to kill the person who had barged into the territory of the Kunshan Sect and launch a sneak attack on Jiangnan City,

muffled groans could be heard throughout the Kunshan Sect.

Wherever Chen Yiming passed, the natural power he had mastered spread out. Its attribute was something similar to gravity, and it completely crushed the disciples of the Kunshan Sect who had rushed over.

When these disciples who were affected by the black aura saw the intruder, they were instantly controlled by emotions like bloodlust, madness, and killing, as if they could not think for themselves.

Even though their allies were easily crushed, they still charged forward without hesitation.

“It’s a little like puppets being controlled!” Chen Yiming’s expression was ugly.

If he and the spiritual figure were not on the blue planet, and the eruption of the strange mountain village swept through the entire Jiangnan province, who knew what kind of hellish scene would result?

However, these people who were affected by the black aura had a weakness. Faced with absolute defeat, they would rather die than turn around and escape. This saved Chen Yiming a lot of trouble.

In less than 10 minutes, the Kunshan Sect fell completely silent. The disciples of the Kunshan Sect had fought to their deaths on this battlefield.

Chen Yiming raised his head and looked past the rocks, cliffs, and buildings in the direction where the black aura was the densest.

The air there was vaguely distorted, as if it was the entrance to hell. Ghosts appeared in the air one after another and met his gaze.

At the same time, their materialized spiritual powers started to attack him. Chen Yiming had the Undying Body talent and strength attribute, while his opponents had the corruption attribute.

The moment they came into contact with each other, the other party used negative emotions like madness, bloodlust, and killing to attack him, trying to create a crack and break past Chen Yiming’s spiritual power.

“He’s definitely at the master realm!”

Chen Yiming made a judgment based on the strength of their spiritual power.

His spiritual power was like that of a well-armed man. Compared to him, his opponent was like a child. He could easily defeat his opponent’s attacks one after another.

However, in terms of cultivation level, they were on the same level. It was just that his Undying Body talent and the Giant Talent were too powerful.

With this thought, Chen Yiming walked towards the source of the black aura. He had decided to completely destroy the Kunshan Sect and not allow this extremely corrupted power to spread.
