Chapter 332: Old Man, I'll Go Crazy With You Today!
Which element's specialized weapon do you want?
Lin Mo frowned slightly.
In the skill column.
【Fireball】 was the first to jump out.
【"Fire element! Definitely fire element!"】
【"As the big boss of this household, I must be chosen! And I'm destined to become a Forbidden Spell in the future! Master, pick fire element, you absolutely won't regret it!"】
【Ice Spike】 let out a cold laugh.
【"You're the big boss? Says who?"】
【"And Forbidden Spell—if you could become one, wouldn't I also be one?"】
【"Master, don't listen to it. Pick ice element."】
【"An ugly thing covered in flames, it'd be embarrassing just to take it out."】
【Fireball】 spun around sharply.
【"Who are you calling ugly?"】
【"Your ice-popsicle thing is the ugly one!"】
【Ice Spike】 rolled its eyes.
【"Triggered."】
Even the usually aloof 【Lightning Strike】 couldn't help but speak up this time.
【"Pick lightning element."】
【"Only the absolute might of divine punishment is worthy of the word 'forbidden.' No point arguing."】
Seeing that Big Brother, Third Brother, and Fourth Sister had all declared their stance.
【Earth Shield】 couldn't sit still either.
【"Master! You can't play favorites!"】
【"Little Feng and I have always been thinking about Master's safety! Even if there's no merit, there's hard work!"】
At this point.
Xiao Tu even dragged Little Feng into it.
【"Fifth, say something too!"】
【Wind Blade】, called out by Second Brother, poked its head out in a daze.
【"Huh? Pick what?"】
【"Um… Little Feng feels like a wind-element specialized weapon should be able to run really fast, right?"】
Xiao Tu's eyes lit up.
【"Right, right, right! Wind-element specialized weapons run fast! Master holding it on the battlefield, the enemy won't even be able to touch the hem of his clothes!"】
【"Then add an earth element on top—hard and fast! That's called… retreat to advance! Run instead of defend!"】
【Fireball】 really couldn't take it anymore.
【"Damn it."】
【"Run instead of defend? Why not die instead of live?"】
'Ice Spike' drove the knife in deeper.
【"Fifth was originally a fine seedling, but Second Brother dragged it into becoming a wind-runner."】
【"Tsk tsk."】
【Earth Shield】 braced itself.
【"What's called leading astray? This is called teaching according to aptitude!"】
Chirp chirp chatter chatter.
Lin Mo listened and felt a headache coming on.
"Alright, stop arguing."
The words fell.
The skills instantly went quiet.
But quiet was quiet.
That undercurrent of covert rivalry and jealousy, Lin Mo could sense it.
Five skills, none willing to concede to another.
Why pick you and not me?
Lin Mo sighed inwardly.
Pick one?
Impossible.
All five are ancestors.
And besides.
Honestly, he didn't want to pick either.
A Five-Element Dharma King—why use only one element's specialized weapon?
Lin Mo raised his head and looked at Hearing Mo Qianjun.
"Elder Mo, uh…"
"What if I said I want all five elements?"
……
Hearing Mo Qianjun fell silent.
His brows knitted tightly together, his expression grave.
After several seconds, he finally spoke:
"Five elements?"
"Lin Mo, don't joke."
"I know you are a body of five elemental affinities, with a profound foundation."
"But even so, one person's control over five elements must be strong in some and weak in others."
"It is difficult... no, absolutely impossible to achieve perfect balance."
Hearing Mo Qianjun advised earnestly:
"Balancing two elements is already as hard as reaching the sky."
"Five elements? That is nearly impossible..."
"Besides, this thing called Divine Casting Stone is not easy to obtain."
"If it fails, who knows how long we'll have to wait for the next Divine Casting Stone."
Hearing Feng Cangqiong, standing nearby, also furrowed his brows.
He stepped forward and patted Lin Mo's shoulder.
"Lin Mo, Elder Mo is right."
"Your idea is too risky."
"Think it through. Crafting a perfect single-attribute tag steadily, or even attempting a dual-attribute one, would be enough for you."
Hearing Feng Cangqiong looked at Lin Mo.
"I know you are confident, but confidence and recklessness are two different things."
Lin Mo listened to the two men's advice.
He fell silent for two seconds.
Then, he smiled.
"It's fine."
"Let's go with five elements."
There was no other way.
Five ancestors lived in his own home.
If he didn't treat them all equally today, how could he lead the team in the future?
Besides, his skills all possessed independent consciousness.
Perhaps, by coordinating with each other, they could truly achieve perfect balance and create the first perfect five-attribute tag?
Beside the workbench.
Jiang Yunshang and Han Shuang both felt their hearts skip a beat.
Five elements?!
Never seen in a lifetime... no, never even heard of it!
This Lin Mo truly doesn't treat the Divine Casting Stone as a treasure.
Just wasting it like this?
The two exchanged a glance, seeing helplessness in each other's eyes.
There was no other way.
In this setting, they had no right to speak up.
Let him be...
Seeing that he couldn't persuade Lin Mo, Hearing Mo Qianjun turned his head to look at Hearing Feng Cangqiong.
His gaze clearly said, You say something then.
Hearing Feng Cangqiong caught that look, then turned his head to look at Lin Mo.
He saw Lin Mo's calm and confident gaze.
He fell silent for a moment.
Suddenly.
Hearing Feng Cangqiong sighed.
"Alright."
"Then let's go with five elements."
"???"
Hearing Mo Qianjun's eyes widened.
"Wait, Old Ghost Feng, you... are you serious?"
Hearing Feng Cangqiong looked at Hearing Mo Qianjun and let out a bitter smile.
"You just don't know."
"This kid Lin Mo, ever since arriving at Jingda, has been creating miracles."
"No matter how absurd the matter, no matter what everyone thinks is impossible, when it involves him, it always comes true in the end."
He waved his hand.
"Just let him be."
"You..."
Hearing Mo Qianjun fell silent.
Lin Mo, standing nearby, looked at Old Mo and smiled faintly.
"Old Mo, rest assured."
"Regarding the balanced control of the elements..."
"If even I cannot achieve absolute balance in this world..."
"Then no one can."
Lin Mo raised his chin slightly.
That extreme confidence was utterly unmasked.
The moment those words were spoken,
every gaze in the entire forging hall converged on Lin Mo.
Arrogant.
Far too arrogant.
But...
Jiang Yunshang looked into Lin Mo's eyes.
Calm, confident.
For some reason,
a ridiculous illusion arose in her heart...
As if...
he truly could do it.
Jiang Yunshang's heartbeat inexplicably quickened.
Perfect attributes for all five elements.
If it truly succeeds,
then this weapon will be an absolute divine artifact worthy of being recorded in the history of Dragon Nation and even all of humanity.
This madness of challenging the impossible
holds a fatal attraction for any blacksmith.
Hearing Mo Qianjun stared at Lin Mo.
Several full seconds passed.
Then, he burst into loud laughter.
"Hahaha..."
"Very well!"
He slapped the nearby forging table with his palm.
"If none of you fear the God-Forging Stone skipping like a stone on water, what is there for me to worry about?"
As he spoke,
a fanaticism of a top-tier craftsman erupted in Hearing Mo Qianjun's eyes.
He tore off his long robe.
Revealing the solid muscles beneath.
"Five elements, then five elements!"
"Old man me today will go mad with you on this!"
