Chapter 334: What Is True Wind Element!
After everything was settled.
Feng Cangqiong put away his smile, turned to Lin Mo, and said seriously:
“Lin Mo, pay close attention from now on.”
“Among all elements,”
“fire is the most violent, lightning represents destruction, ice commands absolute control, and earth offers the strongest defense.”
“But wind—”
Feng Cangqiong paused.
His cloudy eyes suddenly flashed with sharp brilliance.
“Wind is ultimate sharpness.”
“Ultimate cutting!”
“Wind can gently brush against your face, but when compressed to its extreme, it can slice through space!”
“Nothing remains uncut!”
“Nothing stands unbroken!”
Feng Cangqiong intensified his tone.
“It’s not just for casting a wind wall or using it to flee like you thought.”
Hearing this,
Lin Mo awkwardly rubbed his nose.
He’d been called out.
But Feng Lao was right—no mistake there.
After all, Xiao Feng’s current mastered skills were all focused on survival.
Feng Cangqiong didn’t dwell on the topic.
He turned around, facing the massive wooden post.
“Today, I will demonstrate to you the highest-tier technique of wind element…”
“Sky-Splitting Wind Blade!”
Upon hearing the skill’s name,
Lin Mo slightly raised an eyebrow.
Damn.
A wind blade that can split the sky!
Just hearing the name made it sound impossibly powerful.
Feng Cangqiong continued:
“Sky-Splitting Wind Blade, as the name implies,”
“forces wind elements into extreme compression, abandoning wide-area coverage, focusing solely on one point…”
“A single strike to split the sky—ultimate cutting!”
As he spoke, Feng Cangqiong suddenly remembered something.
He turned his head toward Yan Lie, who stood quietly nearby as an observer.
“Yan Lie.”
Feng Cangqiong called out.
“Master Feng, I’m here.”
Yan Lie quickly responded.
“I recall you learned this technique three months ago.”
“To be honest, your wind element talent isn’t bad.”
Feng Cangqiong pointed to a ten-meter-tall massive wooden post in the distance.
“Go ahead.”
“Today’s a perfect chance.”
“Let me see how well you’ve practiced this technique over the past three months.”
Hearing this,
Yan Lie’s face froze.
“Huh?”
“Master Feng, this…”
“I specialize in fire element…”
“I can cast this wind high-tier technique, but my proficiency is mediocre…”
“Maybe I shouldn’t embarrass myself…”
Sweat broke out on Yan Lie’s forehead.
Though he was a dual-element Magic King,
his primary focus remained fire.
Wind was an element demanding extreme micro-control—he had no energy to master both.
Reaching Magic King level in wind alone
was already genius.
But even among wind high-tier techniques, depth of study and proficiency varied wildly—and so did their effects.
He hadn’t practiced it much these past three months…
“Enough nonsense!”
Feng Cangqiong glared.
“Just cast it!”
“What, did Lin Mo beat you so badly you can’t even cast a skill anymore?”
Scolded like this,
Yan Lie shrank his neck and quickly forced a smile.
“Yes, yes, yes…”
“I’ll cast it, right away.”
Yan Lie sighed helplessly.
He glanced at Lin Mo and emphasized:
“Lin Mo, I’ll be clear—I won’t match Master Feng’s skill. The power’s probably less than one-tenth of his. Don’t laugh later.”
Lin Mo nodded seriously.
“Don’t worry, I’ve had professional training.”
…
Yan Lie took a deep breath.
He stepped forward, halted, and fixed his gaze on the distant massive wooden post, his eyes sharpening.
The aura of a dual-element Magic King subtly radiated.
Yan Lie raised his hand, and his staff appeared.
The next instant,
the air around him began to flow visibly.
Cyan wind elements surged wildly toward the staff.
The glow intensified.
A sharp, glass-shredding screech echoed faintly through the air.
As the cyan light reached its peak,
Yan Lie sharply swung his staff forward.
Whirrr—!
A compressed cyan wind blade, like a straight, slender thread of cyan, instantly tore through the air.
It shot toward the massive wooden post at astonishing speed.
Boom—!!
A deep, muffled explosion.
The cyan thread struck the wooden post with full force!
Violent wind elements exploded on contact.
Splitting into countless tiny blades, they furiously sliced the post’s surface.
Wood chips flew everywhere!
Creak—creak—creak—
The storm subsided.
All fell silent.
Lin Mo looked up.
The massive wooden post bore a deep gash.
The gash cut one-third of the way into the post.
But.
That’s all there is to it.
The wooden post remained standing, uncut.
That wind blade had struck like it had hit solid steel, stuck halfway, then lost its force and vanished into thin air.
Lin Mo raised an eyebrow.
Is that it?
You can’t even cut through this post?
If he remembered correctly, a post of this quality wouldn’t last a second in the hands of Xiao Huo or Xiao Lei.
Pretty weak…
In the skill bar.
“Wind Blade Technique” blinked with wide, confused eyes, looking puzzled.
【“Huh?”】
【“It… didn’t cut through?”】
Xiao Feng’s soft voice carried a hint of bewilderment.
【“Second brother, is this what ‘ultimate cutting’ is?”】
“Earth Shield Technique” hadn’t had time to speak yet.
“Fireball Technique” struck first with mockery.
【“This is hilarious!”】
【“Is that all?”】
【“This is what they call ‘ultimate cutting’? Just scratching?”】
Xiao Huo sneered repeatedly.
【“Wind element?”】
【“If this is the power of high-grade wind, then wind element might as well be useless.”】
【“Little Five, listen to your big brother.”】
【“If your damage is this pitiful, you might as well sit at the same table as Little Two.”】
【“Don’t come out and embarrass yourself.”】
Hearing Xiao Huo’s merciless mockery,
“Earth Shield Technique” immediately bristled.
【“Hey hey hey!”】
【“Big Brother, what do you mean by that?”】
Xiao Tu spoke up boldly.
【“So what if we sit at the same table?”】
【“We’re support! Do you even understand what support means?!”】
Xiao Tu spoke with righteous confidence.
【“Our job is protection!”】
【“What if our damage is low? As long as we protect the master, we’re a good skill!”】
Saying this,
Xiao Tu turned to Xiao Feng and comforted him earnestly:
【“Little Five, ignore Big Brother’s nonsense.”】
【“We don’t care about that pitiful damage.”】
【“Just focus on shielding and buffing the master—that’s the real work!”】
【“Understood?”】
Xiao Feng was left stunned by his second brother’s words.
【“Oh…”】
【“Xiao Feng understands.”】
…
Outside,
Feng Cangqiong stared at the wooden post, only one-third cut into.
His brow tightened.
He shook his head in disappointment and sighed.
“Yan Lie, Yan Lie.”
Feng Cangqiong looked at Yan Lie with exasperation.
“Your wind element…”
“It’s an insult to wind element! All show, no substance!”
Feng Cangqiong delivered his verdict without mercy:
“Your wind energy is too scattered!”
“You haven’t compressed it at all!”
“And at the moment of release, the power already leaked out.”
“At least thirty percent of your strength was wasted into the air!”
Feng Cangqiong said sternly:
“I know your main focus is fire element—you’ve trained your high-grade fire well.”
“But as a dual-element Magic King,”
“Can your wind element really be this far behind?”
“In a battle at your level, what use is this move besides scratching the enemy?”
“When you return, seriously study your wind element!”
“Don’t turn a good skill into garbage!”
Feng Cangqiong was furious.
As the supreme master of wind, he could not bear to see a proper wind technique reduced to this.
Yan Lie’s face flushed crimson under Feng Cangqiong’s public rebuke.
He lowered his head awkwardly.
“Yes, Master Feng…”
“I’ll study it seriously…”
Yet,
Yan Lie felt bitter inside.
What could he do?
His fire talent was naturally high—he used it easily, and its damage exploded.
Wind techniques, requiring such extreme precision, were simply hard for him to master.
…
After scolding Yan Lie,
Feng Cangqiong turned to Lin Mo.
“Lin Mo.”
“Don’t be misled by Yan Lie.”
“Wind element isn’t this weak.”
“What you just saw was a completely wrong demonstration.”
“That’s the classic case of someone who learned the form but never grasped the essence.”
Feng Cangqiong turned toward another intact giant wooden post nearby.
“Today,”
“I will demonstrate to you myself what true wind element is.”
