I Can Enhance My Talents Using Unlimited Skill Points-Chapter 122 - Interception (II)
Chapter 122: Interception (II)
Chen Yiming wasn’t flustered at all. After landing on the ground, he charged forward again, relying on the increase in speed from his piercing internal force to continue his attack.
He had noticed a weakness. Ren Pingsheng’s internal force was inclined towards the toughness attribute, which was a type of defense.
Although he had mastered the transformation of his internal force, the main thing that was enhanced was its toughness, which had little effect on his speed.
Faced with Chen Yiming’s attacks, Ren Pingsheng had no choice but to cast a golden net to block Chen Yiming’s attacks.
The two sides quickly exchanged more than 100 blows, and each time they collided, the internal force expenditure was one to dozens.
From the looks of it, the masked man seemed to be putting up his last fight. He ignored the intense consumption of resources by his internal force and attacked without any success.
“Huff!”
Ren Pingsheng let out a breath of turbid air and leaped more than 10 meters away to dodge the hundreds of silver sword shadows falling from the sky.
This was the first time he had taken the initiative to dodge after exchanging more than 100 blows.
At the same time, he could no longer remain calm. His heart was in turmoil.
His opponent seemed to have an endless supply of internal force, and it would not be used up no matter what.
He had never encountered such a freak before. He was even more special than the geniuses of the large factions in the provincial city.
“Can’t hold out anymore?” Seeing this, Chen Yiming provoked his opponent.
He had not forgotten the other party’s contemptuous tone at the start.
He might not be able to take down his opponent for the time being, but he had the upper hand in terms of aura.
“Young man, don’t celebrate too soon.” ƒ𝘳ee𝔀e𝚋n૦𝐯el.c𝗼𝓂
As soon as he finished speaking, Ren Pingsheng soared into the sky and leaped more than 10 meters into the air.
His entire body shone with a golden light, and he no longer held back to conserve his internal force.
In the blink of an eye, dozens of golden nets fell from the sky, covering an area of hundreds of meters.
With this range of coverage, when the two of them were less than 10 meters apart, no matter how fast a warrior was, they would not be able to escape.
However, when the golden net fell, Ren Pingsheng did not stop his movements.
He took a deep breath and gathered his internal force at his throat area.
“Kill!” a loud roar rang out.
The sound waves struck out like thunder, covering an area of dozens of meters.
This was a type of secret technique using sound waves. It could integrate one’s spiritual energy with one’s internal force and produce a doubly-effective attack.
Furthermore, the sound waves and the internal force integrated with it came from the same source. They were not blocked by the golden net, and in the blink of an eye, they moved faster than the golden net and rushed towards Chen Yiming.
Chen Yiming’s hair stood on end. He knew that his opponent was about to reveal his trump card, but he had never been afraid of secret techniques based on spiritual energy.
“Slash!”
There was a low chuckle.
Hundreds of sword shadows carrying his piercing internal force instantly shot out. This was the current limit of the frequency of his attacks.
At the same time, a sword shadow hidden among the hundreds of sword shadows secretly had a layer of Heart Sword attached to it.
The Heart Sword was the nemesis of techniques based on spiritual energy. Chen Yiming held a strong belief in this.
In the blink of an eye, the sound waves hidden in the internal force collided with the sword shadow that had a layer of Heart Sword attached to it.
Immediately after, dozens of golden nets collided with hundreds of sword shadows.
“Rumble…”
The internal forces collided and exploded. It was more intense than any previous collision. Countless shock waves turned into rings that swept out in all directions.
The ground, which had been flattened several times, had another layer shaved off it.
The spots at which the two of them were standing were a few meters deeper compared to the ground hundreds of meters away.
Seeing that the sword shadows were about to lose to the golden net, Chen Yiming took a deep breath and shot out another few hundred sword shadows.
At this moment, Ren Pingsheng, who was falling from the sky, watched as all this happened. He had the intention to add dozens of golden nets as well.
However, after casting more than 10 golden nets, he suddenly felt that his body was weakening. In order to leave behind a path for retreat, he resisted the urge to risk everything.
“Rumble…”
Another internal force collision erupted.
The golden net remaining from the previous collision and the dozen or so additional nets collided with hundreds of sword shadows. This time, the two sides were evenly matched.
Shock waves continuously swept across the ground, and countless dust clouds filled the sky.
For a moment, their figures were buried in the dust clouds, and neither of them could see the other.
After nearly a minute, the dust gradually settled to the ground, revealing a energetic masked man and a somewhat fatigued Ren Pingsheng.
“Do you have any other tricks?” Chen Yiming asked.
With this one minute of recovery time, his body had already regained its energy and he could fight again at any time.
At the same time, he also sensed that his opponent’s sound wave secret technique was far weaker than his Heart Sword, and was easily broken by it.
When Ren Pingsheng heard this, the scene in front of him blurred.
He quickly narrowed his eyes and tried his best to maintain his composure so that the other party would not notice his weakness.
Once one used a secret technique involving spiritual energy, they would have to suffer the resulting backlash. 𝑓re𝘦𝔀𝗲𝘣𝘯𝘰νℯ𝒍.c𝗼m
His sound wave secret technique could only be used once a day. After that, he would need to recuperate for a week. If he used it a second time, his mind would be permanently damaged.
If he used it for the third time, he had never tried it himself, but he knew from the secret manual that there was a 99% chance that he would die instantly.
“Consider yourself lucky,” Ren Pingsheng said and turned to leave.
Once the sound wave secret technique was used and his opponent was still unharmed, he understood that he had lost.
In addition, as an overseer of the city, he had a more important responsibility. He could not risk losing his life in a fit of anger.
Chen Yiming watched quietly as Ren Pingsheng left. He had no intention of stopping him.
Ren Pingsheng did not have the fast recovery speed that Chen Yiming had, so his physical condition was clearly worse. However, that didn’t mean that Chen Yiming could hold him back.
After all, in terms of pure internal force, Chen Yiming was far inferior to Ren Pingsheng. Ren Pingsheng might not be able to launch any more powerful attacks, but he still had the ability to protect himself.
Chen Yiming’s method of using quantity to make up for quality was useless against Ren Pingsheng before he exhausted the last of his internal force.
Ren Pingsheng only needed to travel a little over 10 kilometers to return to the city where his safety was ensured, since Chen Yiming would never dare to fight in the city.
“Before I knew it, the city’s overseer, the strongest force in East Lake City, had already lost to me,” Chen Yiming sighed and muttered to himself.
He understood his current true combat strength. If he used all his trump cards, he could defeat someone at the level of Ren Pingsheng, but it would be very difficult to kill him unless the other party had a reason to risk his life.
Thunder rumbled in the sky, and a gust of wind blew past, bringing Chen Yiming out of his rumination.
“Come out!” Chen Yiming said.
He knew that Mo Yanfei was hiding nearby, at most one or two kilometers away.
After all, Ren Pingsheng did not want the surroundings of East Lake City to be beaten beyond recognition, so he had restricted the range of the battle. The aftershock of the fight between the two only affected an area of less than a kilometer around them.
“Wait a moment, I’ll be right there,” Mo Yanfei replied. She walked out from behind a tree and hurried over.
During the battle just now, her heart had almost stopped beating.
She had never thought that Ren Pingsheng, who was at a higher level, and the overseer of East Lake City, would actually be defeated and escape in a hurry.
Her original plan was to hide away under the Mo clan’s protection after this matter.
The Mo clan was a martial arts clan in Yungang City. As long as they denied it, Ren Pingsheng could not extend his control to Yungang City. Otherwise, he would be crossing a line that he should not cross.
But now, the thought of living out in the open was not possible.
The problem she was facing now was that she was only a tool that had been captured. After she was used, she might be abandoned.
It was impossible for the outside world to easily assume that she had received the protection of the masked man when they saw him send her back to the Mo clan. After all, the two of them had gone to the dangerous place openly, so there was no way to hide it from them.
No matter how she thought about it, it was still fruitless. The decision was not up to her, and the location of the danger zone was already something she had used to make a deal.
For the time being, she could not think of anything else that she could use to bargain with the masked man.
