Our work focuses on investigating limit cycle bifurcation for infinity and a degenerate singular point of a fifth degree system in three-dimensional vector field. By using singular value method to compute focal values carefully, we give the expressions of the focal values (Lyapunov constants) at the origin and at infinity. Moreover, we obtain that four limit cycles at most can bifurcate from the origin and three limit cycles can bifurcate from infinity. At the same time, we show the structure of limit cycles from the origin and the infinity. It is interesting for this kind of nonlinear phenomenon that a string of large limit cycles encircle a string of small limit cycles by simultaneous Hopf bifurcation, which is hardly seen for similar published results in three-dimensional vector field, our result is new.
