Chapter 358: Freak! Two high-tier skills in one day?

~7 min read 1,337 words

After soothing the several ancestors in his body.

Lin Mo got up and washed up.

He changed into a clean, neat set of clothes, pushed open the door, and walked out of the master bedroom.

The moment he stepped into the living room.

He saw Yan Lie slumped on the sofa, two huge dark circles under his eyes, looking utterly drained of the will to live.

Meanwhile, Feng Cangqiong sat on the sofa, leisurely watching TV.

Hearing the sound of the door opening.

Both of them turned their heads at the same time.

"Lin Mo, you're up?"

Feng Cangqiong greeted him with a smile.

And Yan Lie, upon seeing Lin Mo, immediately let out a sigh.

"Lin Mo, oh Lin Mo, have a heart!"

"???"

Lin Mo's face was full of question marks.

Yan Lie pointed at his own dark circles.

"Look at these eyes!"

Lin Mo raised an eyebrow and asked in confusion:

"What's wrong? Didn't sleep well last night?"

Yan Lie said, somewhat helplessly:

"Last night I figured, since I was free anyway, might as well head outside the town and find some fun."

"I know that contracted beast of yours clears mobs like crazy, and I never expected to steal mobs from your freakish pet."

"But I thought to myself."

"The wilds outside this big old Star Casting Town."

"There had to be a few lone small mobs around, enough to grab some experience points. That's not too much to ask, right?"

Hearing this.

Lin Mo's mouth twitched.

"Uh…"

"Not too much, not too much."

Yan Lie's face was full of misery:

"You know it's not too much!"

"I wandered around for half a day and didn't even see the shadow of a single monster!"

"Damn it, all I wanted was to take down one and come back to sleep!"

"Just one, alright!"

"Kill one and I'd come back to sleep!"

Hearing this.

Lin Mo finally understood.

So this guy had pulled an all-nighter without spotting a single monster.

He had to admit, this bunch of ancestors at home really were something…

No wonder his own leveling speed was so much faster compared to everyone else's.

"Ahem…"

Lin Mo smiled and said.

"Can't be helped, my Big White is still a child."

"Once it sees a monster, it just can't walk away."

"Forgive me, forgive me."

"…"

Yan Lie was left utterly speechless.

Feng Cangqiong, sitting on the sofa, listened to their exchange and couldn't help but burst into laughter.

"Hahahaha!"

"Yan Lie, oh Yan Lie."

Feng Cangqiong shook his head and laughed:

"Didn't this old man warn you last night? That pet of Lin Mo's is terrifyingly efficient. You just wouldn't believe it and insisted on going."

Being mocked like this by Feng Cangqiong.

Yan Lie went limp on the sofa.

"Fine, fine, fine."

"I deserve it, I'm trash, I'm slow."

"This life is unbearable…"

Yan Lie stared at the ceiling, drained of the will to live.

After teasing Yan Lie.

Feng Cangqiong wiped the smile off his face, his gaze settling back on Lin Mo.

"Lin Mo."

"How about it? Did you comprehend that single-target high-damage Wind-element skill?"

Although he asked this,

Feng Cangqiong understood in his heart.

Given Lin Mo's talent, he had most likely already comprehended it.

After all, this fellow was someone who mastered a high-tier skill every single day.

Lin Mo said calmly:

"Oh, Old Wind, I have comprehended it."

"And by accident, I created two moves."

"One is single-target high damage, the other is a displacement move for survival."

"Ahem! Ahem!"

Feng Cangqiong's expression froze.

"Two... two moves?"

Feng Cangqiong forcibly steadied the tremor in his mind.

"Lin Mo."

"Are you not joking?"

"You really created two moves?"

Lin Mo nodded seriously.

"Really, Old Wind."

Seeing Lin Mo's so certain expression,

Feng Cangqiong sighed inwardly.

A monster.

This fellow is truly a monster!

Feng Cangqiong asked impatiently:

"Lin Mo, tell me, what is that single-target high-damage skill of yours like? Has it been improved?"

Feng Cangqiong's eyes were filled with anticipation.

After all, Lin Mo was the kind of person who could turn 'Heaven-Splitting Wind Blade' into 'Heaven-Splitting Wind Storm'.

Lin Mo nodded.

"It has indeed been improved a little."

"The skill is called 'Sky-Slaying Wind Blade'."

"Hmm?"

"Sky-Slaying Wind Blade?"

Feng Cangqiong froze again.

This skill name...

As expected!

Another self-created skill!

Too perverted!

Lin Mo nodded.

"However, this move is somewhat special."

"After the wind blade is launched, during its flight, it will crazily Devour the Outside air and wind elements."

"Simply put, the farther the distance, the larger the wind blade, the greater the power, skyrocketing against the wind!"

As Lin Mo finished speaking these words,

Feng Cangqiong's pupils contracted.

Can you play it this way?

Holy crap!

"Holy crap..."

Yan Lie swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

"The farther the distance, the larger the wind blade, the greater the power?"

"Does that mean if a wind blade is slashed from ten kilometers away, by the time it flies onto someone's face, it has become a hundred-meter-long cleaver?"

"Exactly."

Lin Mo nodded seriously.

Feng Cangqiong and Yan Lie both fell silent.

After ten-plus seconds,

"I see!"

Feng Cangqiong stood up excitedly.

"So it can be played this way!"

"We always thought we had to personally control the wind elements, personally condense the wind blades, yet we ignored the freedom and inclusiveness of the wind itself!"

"You actually thought of letting the wind Devour the Outside wind!"

"Using distance to exchange for power!"

Feng Cangqiong paced back and forth excitedly in the living room.

"Divine Skill!"

"This is absolutely the supreme divine technique for long-range sniping!"

"Lin Mo, you kid's line of thinking has simply opened the door to a whole new world for this old man!"

Looking at the Wind-system Supreme, who was so excited he could barely speak coherently.

Lin Mo gave an awkward smile.

"Old Feng, you're too kind. I was just idly thinking, got lucky, that's all."

Looking at Lin Mo's breezily nonchalant manner.

Yan Lie's heart was sour.

Sourer than if he'd eaten a hundred lemons.

Idly thinking?

Got lucky?

Listen to that — is that even something a human being would say?

Then.

Yan Lie asked curiously:

"Hey, Lin Mo."

"You just said that besides that single-target high-damage move, there's also a displacement skill?"

"What kind of trick did you come up with for this one?"

The moment the words fell.

Before Lin Mo could even open his mouth.

"Shut it!"

Feng Cangqiong's cold bark rang out.

"Forgot the unwritten rule of professionals?"

"A life-saving displacement skill — is that something you can casually inquire about?"

This utterly merciless scolding made Yan Lie realize in an instant.

Right...

Asking about someone else's offensive skill is at most just an exchange of pointers.

But asking about someone else's life-saving trump card?

In the professional circle, that's the greatest taboo of all taboos!

What's more, Lin Mo is now the Adams family's number one target.

If some scheming person were to overhear this.

Even if I had ten heads, they wouldn't be enough for Old Feng to chop off!

"Hahaha..."

Yan Lie scratched his head and said apologetically:

"Lin Mo, sorry about that, I just forgot... I was purely curious, no other meaning."

Looking at Yan Lie's nervous appearance.

Lin Mo waved his hand.

"No worries, no worries, we're all on the same side."

Feng Cangqiong glared at Yan Lie and gave a cold snort.

"Hmph."

"From now on, when you speak and act, use your brain more!"

"Yes, yes, yes!"

Yan Lie nodded repeatedly.

After finishing his lecture with Yan Lie.

Feng Cangqiong glanced at the time.

"Alright."

"Since you're already awake, let's not keep hanging around the hotel."

"Today that weapon of yours should be entering its second phase — infusing elemental fixed affixes."

Feng Cangqiong looked at Lin Mo and said with earnest weight:

"Lin Mo."

"As long as this second phase goes smoothly, if nothing unexpected happens, today we should be able to get your Forbidden-grade exclusive weapon."
