I Can Unlimited Skill Points Novel - Chapter 68

Just as they were chatting in low voices, the sound of feet stepping on the grass was heard.

“Hmm?”

Chen Yiming raised his head and looked into the darkness.

Even with the moonlight shining on them, only their silhouettes could be seen from far away. The sounds they made could be heard even before their figures could be seen.

“Everyone, lie down. From now on, don’t make any sound,” Wei Chaoyuan said in a low voice.

“Okay.”

“Definitely.”

Everyone immediately followed Wei Chaoyuan’s instructions and laid on the grass without moving. The weeds were half a meter tall and covered their figures.

A few minutes later, three figures walked out of the darkness of the distant forest. They were three raging bulls.

The raging bulls had evolved from wild oxen. It had bulging muscles all over its body, and was nearly 1.67 meters tall. Its body was nearly three meters long, and its sharp horns were raised high.

The few of them could hear the heavy breathing of the raging bulls from dozens of meters away.

The three raging bulls stopped about 10 meters away from the riverside. They looked left and right for nearly a minute before continuing on their way.

Water was a necessity for life, and living creatures who had achieved success in their cultivation were no exception. Therefore, the riverside had always been a natural hunting ground.

Chen Yiming and his team were not the only ones hiding in the darkness.

“It’s three raging bulls. What do you think?” Chen Yiming asked in a low voice.

“Wait, don’t be rash. Let me observe carefully first,” Wei Chaoyuan replied.

Chen Yiming nodded.

He was naturally not afraid of the three bulls that were drinking water at the outskirts of the mountain range. However, there was still Guo Hao, who had undergone three transformations, and Xiong Kai, who had undergone four transformations.

The three raging bulls stood by the riverside, their heads lowered to drink the water. From time to time, they would look into the water to see if there was any danger underneath the water’s surface.

“Look at the horns on the head of the bull. They are no longer black with some yellow in them, but completely brown. They should be bulls that have undergone five transformations. If the horns are completely yellow, it means that the bull has broken through to the sixth transformation,” Wei Chaoyuan explained.

The others looked at the three bulls and realized that it was just as Wei Chaoyuan had said. The horns on the bull’s head were brown in the moonlight.

“The bulls are mutant beasts that live in packs. Generally, more than a hundred of them will move together. Since these three bulls dared to leave the herd alone and go to the river at night to drink water, they must be extremely confident in their strength. Therefore, I reckon that there’s a high chance that these three bulls are not far from breaking through to the sixth transformation.” Wei Chaoyuan continued.

Hearing this, Xiong Kai and Guo Hao tensed up.

Those at the level of five transformations were a little difficult for the two of them to deal with.

Xiong Kai cultivated a strength-based fist technique, while the raging bull was also a mutant beast that specialized in strength. Furthermore, their cultivation level was even higher than his.

Guo Hao cultivated a defensive sword technique, and he was two levels lower than the bulls. He didn’t have much confidence in defending against the two horns on the bull’s head.

“What are the arrangements for the two of them?” Chen Yiming asked Wei Chaoyuan.

“You have the confidence to deal with one of three bulls that have undergone five transformations?” Wei Chaoyuan asked in surprise. The destructive power of the bull’s horns and the iron-armed ape’s arms were on completely different levels. The sharp horns combined with the brute force of the bull could easily kill someone on the spot.

This was also another reason why the three bulls dared to leave the herd at night. The bulls were considered the strongest group of mutant beasts at the same level in the periphery of the mountain range.

“No problem. I have absolute confidence in my speed. I can definitely bring a raging bull to death even if I have to make it a long fight.” Chen Yiming nodded confidently.

Hearing this, Wei Chaoyuan turned to look at Xiong Kai and Guo Hao.

Xiong Kai had a hesitant expression on his face, unlike his usual martial arts fanatic attitude. On the other hand, Guo Hao was drenched in cold sweat and subconsciously shook his head in refusal.

Xiong Kai was silent for a moment before he said in a low voice, “If Guo Hao and I work together to deal with one bull, then I won’t have any problems.”

Xiong Kai, who had undergone four transformations, and Guo Hao, who had undergone three transformations, could hold back a raging bull for a short period of time as long as they worked together without any mistakes.

However, if one of them was affected by factors such as nervousness and fear, and their coordination was flawed, it would be equivalent to taking turns to fight a raging bull that had undergone five transformations.

Although Xiong Kai was a martial arts fanatic, he was not an idiot. He knew that he would be instantly killed by the bull if he was not careful when fighting it alone.

Was

Chen Yiming sensed Guo Hao’s anxiety and said, “They should stay put and not get involved, in case anything happens. We’ll deal with one bull each. If the other bull escapes, we’ll ignore it for now. We’ll kill the two bulls first and think of a way to get the last one. If the other bull doesn’t escape, I’ll use my speed to stall two of them. Help me after you finish off one as soon as possible.”

“Okay.”

Wei Chaoyuan nodded in agreement after some consideration.

He was thinking that Guo Hao had joined the company for too short a time and lacked combat experience. If he faced a raging bull that had undergone five transformations directly, there might be a huge problem.

Within a radius of several hundred meters from where they were hiding, many pairs of eyes were observing the three raging bulls that were drinking water by the river. They could be mutant beasts that were small insects or rats, and the commotion they caused could vaguely be heard from a distance.

The three raging bulls retreated about half a meter from time to time. They raised their heads to meet those gazes. After confirming that it was safe, they went back to the water to continue drinking.

When the bulls lowered their heads to drink the water once again, Chen Yiming and Wei Chaoyuan leaped out of the bushes at the same time.

“You deal with that bull over there,” Wei Chaoyuan roared as he charged at the two bulls that were further away.

Chen Yiming understood the situation and raised his sword to stab at the bull’s leg.

The three raging bulls reacted quickly, as if they had been prepared for this. They actually turned around in an instant and aimed their horns at the two people who were charging

over.

The horns were about half a meter long, like two sharp awls, and they shined with a golden light under the moonlight. Chen Yiming didn’t confront the bull head-on, which would reveal his true level of six transformations.

Instead, he instantly changed his direction and rushed to the bull’s flank. He used the strongest attack in the Mantis Snake Sword Technique to make an explosive stab towards the bull.

All the force from his body was focused on the tip of his sword, and was instantaneously released.

“Clang!”

A loud metallic sound echoed through the forest.

Chen Yiming flew back, feeling a little surprised. The bull appeared to have a huge body, but its reaction speed was not slow.

The tip of the sword failed to stab the bull’s abdomen successfully. Instead, it collided with the horns as it turned around.

On the other side, Wei Chaoyuan had attracted the attention of the two bulls. He was being attacked by both of them, and he dodged the four dancing horns while using his long saber to clash with the horns from time to time.

It looked like Wei Chaoyuan could only defend himself and could not spare any effort to kill a raging bull.

“I’m coming,” Chen Yiming shouted.

His entire body instantly charged forward, and according to their previous plan, they raised their swords and stabbed at one of the two bulls that were attacking Wei Chaoyuan.

His speed was extremely fast. The raging bull had wanted to stop him, but while its head was able to turn to keep up with Chen Yiming’s speed, its body was much slower.

Chen Yiming escaped easily and successfully charged to the front of his target.
