I Can Enhance My Talents Using Unlimited Skill Points Novel - Chapter 164
Chapter 164: Days (II)
Dai Yuanhang had a well-proportioned figure and was dressed in casual clothes. He liked to read the books written by his predecessors. The way to progress on the path of martial arts was to break through to the next realm, not to determine the level of one’s combat strength within the same realm.
Qian Bingnan, who had been rejected again, had a look of disappointment on his face. He muttered to himself, “Where did Bai Hengliang go tonight? Could he have gone on a secret date with some junior sister from the outer sect?”
Bai Hengliang, the self-proclaimed most handsome man in the Mantis Snake division, was passionate about elegance in combat, so he often sparred with Qian Bingnan.
“You guys continue. I’ll go back to my room first.” Chen Yiming entered his room, intending to continue his cultivation that had been interrupted by the elder.
Not long after Chen Yiming returned to the house, Bai Hengliang also returned to the courtyard. As soon as he entered, he was pestered by Qian Bingnan.
“Tell me honestly, did you go after some junior sister from the outer sect?” Qian Bingnan shouted.
His voice was so loud that people in the other houses nearby could clearly hear him.
Bai Hengliang felt a little guilty, but his expression remained unchanged. He said in a low voice, “How could that be? I was too focused on practicing my swordsmanship and didn’t check the time.”
Qian Bingnan said seriously, “Really? Then let us spar a little.”
Bai Hengliang grumbled to himself. He moved his feet and said in a low voice, “Alright, I’ll let you see my improvement today.”
Dai Yuanhang glanced at the two of them and put away the information on the stone table. Then, he returned to his room and consciously made space for the two of them.
Soon, the sound of swords colliding could be heard from the courtyard. The two of them were only fighting with their sword techniques. They did not use their internal force so that they could prevent themselves from accidentally damaging the courtyard.
Not long after, Bai Hengliang’s voice rang out.
“Stop, stop, stop! It’s already very late. Most of the others are already resting.”
Qian Bingnan nodded and did not object. Fighting before bed was a form of relaxation for him.
The two of them sheathed their swords and returned to their rooms.
…
Chen Yiming relied on his strong recovery ability and cultivated until late at night before falling asleep.
Just like that, an ordinary day ended.
The inner sect’s arrangements for their disciples were based on their ability to help each other in their cultivation.
Although the three disciples who lived in the same house as Chen Yiming had different personalities, their talents were considered top-notch in the Mantis Snake division. They were all inner sect disciples with the potential to become true disciples.
…
It was another morning.
Chen Yiming woke up early and prepared to head to the library to leave a perfect impression that he was both talented and hardworking on Division Head Zhou. He wanted to ensure that he would be promoted to a true disciple after a month.
At the stone table in the courtyard, Dai Yuanhang, who was flipping through some information, looked up and asked, “So early? Are you going to the library again?”
Chen Yiming replied, “Yes.”
Dai Yuanhang asked again, “Can you rely on just your own research?”
The philosophy of the martial arts world was that one could only go further by standing on the shoulders of giants.
He often stayed in the library, but mostly referred to the information left behind by his seniors. However, there were many times when he saw Chen Yiming staying in the area with the concept diagrams.
Chen Yiming replied truthfully, “I plan to try it out by myself first. Then, I’ll check the information to find answers to my questions.”
When Dai Yuanhang heard this, he did not know whether to laugh or cry. “That’s good. I thought you were stuck on your own.”
Chen Yiming knew that the other party had misunderstood, but he didn’t want to explain himself. He headed straight for the library.
As the door to the library opened, more than 10 inner sect disciples rushed in.
After reaching a certain level in martial arts cultivation, it was usually like this. If one encountered a problem, they would try to resolve it by looking up information from their seniors. If they failed again, they would continue to look up more information from their seniors.
This cycle repeated itself.
Therefore, early in the morning, many disciples rushed to the library to try to find solutions to the problems they had encountered the day before.
Chen Yiming followed the crowd into the library. He didn’t head to the concept diagram area immediately. Instead, he searched for information about the main and secondary cultivation techniques for the warrior realm on the bookshelf.
The disciples in the inner sect, including the true disciples, were still at the ordinary warrior realm.
Information regarding the fusion of internal force at the third stage of the warrior realm would definitely not be placed in the library of the Mantis Snake division.
However, all buildings had to be built from the ground up. Clearly, the combination of the main and secondary cultivation techniques of the warrior realm was at the core of the fusion of internal forces.
Not long after, Chen Yiming picked a book from the bookshelf. It was titled “Detailed Explanations on the Combination of Swordsmanship Techniques and Secondary Cultivation Techniques in the Warrior Realm”. He then found a random seat and sat down.
The minutes and seconds passed by. Half an hour later, with his understanding of swordsmanship from his Level-2 swordsmanship talent, Chen Yiming didn’t encounter any information that he could not understand. He flipped through the entire book in one go.
Chen Yiming wasn’t in a hurry to verify the information he had read. He got up and stood in front of the bookshelf to search for more information.
In the morning, “Primary and Secondary Cultivation Techniques Complement Each Other in Their Attributes”, “Primary and Secondary Cultivation Techniques Complement Each Other in Terms of Internal Force”…
Chen Yiming went through all the information he could find in the library that was potentially useful.
As he flipped through the information, Chen Yiming felt many suspicious gazes on him.
This kind of behavior was very unusual in the eyes of the inner sect disciples. It was easy for others to think that he was anxious to achieve success quickly, but Chen Yiming didn’t mind.
When he became a true disciple, these doubts would naturally disappear.
Chen Yiming finished reading the last book, “On the Maximum Power Amplification of the Combination of Primary and Secondary Cultivation Techniques”. He was eager to try out what he had read and planned to find a remote place to experiment.
Suddenly, someone poked him in the shoulder. Chen Yiming turned around and saw a fair-skinned and beautiful figure in a long dress.
“I’m sorry to disturb you, but I saw that you had been looking for information about the primary and secondary cultivation techniques for the entire morning. Can I ask you a question?”
Chen Yiming sized her up and smiled. “No problem. Go ahead.”
Men were visual creatures after all. The trace of charm revealed by the pretty woman’s innocence added a lot to her already top-notch appearance.
In addition, Chen Yiming’s true strength was above that of the entire Mantis Snake division, including the division head. In his heart, he treated himself as a senior to these inner sect disciples.
Lastly, the woman had asked politely. Her tone put him in an extremely good mood.
Therefore, as long as it didn’t affect Chen Yiming in any serious way, he wouldn’t reject her request.
“Thank you. By the end of this year, I’ll have been in the sect for three years. I’ll be descending the mountain to carry out a mission soon,” Su Mo’er explained the reason and sat on a chair at the side.
“I picked a secondary sword technique with the ice attribute, but I could never resolve the problem of combining the fog with the ice.”
Chen Yiming exchanged glances with the woman openly, causing her to avoid his gaze.
He could guess the woman’s motive for choosing this secondary sword technique.
The Mantis Snake Sword Technique was originally a speed-based technique that specialized in assassination. The black fog internal force had its own concealment ability, and it could be used to escape.
The ice attribute internal force could kill the enemy at a low temperature, with a speed reduction effect.
With the combination of these two internal forces, if faced with an opponent at the same level with not much difference in strength, the enemy would be slowed down, while she would be able to speed up. The woman’s ability to survive would be greatly enhanced.
The main problem the woman faced was that the two types of internal force countered each other to a certain extent.
In this situation, if she simply cultivated two types of internal forces, not only would they not complement each other, but they would also weaken each other, causing the opposite effect.
