Chapter 362: Everyone Aligns with Xiao Tu!
Watching Hearing Xiao Huo continue to ramp up its output intensity.
Lin Mo's forehead was covered in black lines.
He glanced at the balance meter needle, which was shaking wildly.
A wave of speechlessness washed over him.
The progress bar had indeed been filled to the brim with ease.
But the problem now was that the balance of these five elements simply couldn't be maintained...
The five elemental types were each acting on their own.
There was not a shred of coordination; if this could possibly be balanced, then it would truly be a ghost story.
This can't go on!
Lin Mo frowned slightly.
"Hey, hey, hey."
"Is this the time for you to be engaging in internal competition?"
"Have you forgotten? What I want is for you to balance each other!"
Hearing their master's reprimand.
'Earth Shield Technique' was the first to react.
【"Exactly!"】
【"Master speaks the truth!"】
【"We must unite! Do not blindly compete!"】
'Earth Shield Technique' loudly accused 'Fireball Technique':
【"Big Brother! Did you hear that?"】
【"It's all your fault for leading the family astray! Can't you hold back a little!"】
Hearing the second brother's accusation.
'Fireball Technique', which had originally wanted to curse back, remembered this was what the master required, and promptly swallowed his words.
'Fireball Technique' pouted.
【"What a hassle."】
【"Having to force this seat to suppress its own power to cater to you bunch of weaklings."】
At this moment.
Ten meters behind the Starfire Furnace.
Xiao Li looked at the progress bar that had begun to jump chaotically, and at the balance meter which showed no sign of stopping.
He couldn't help but laugh.
"Hahahaha..."
Xiao Li shook his head and looked at Jiang Yunshang, who was standing not far away.
"Senior Sister Jiang, I told you so."
"Even if that Lin Mo is truly a monster, capable of instantly maximizing control over the output of all five elements, so what?"
"To achieve perfect balance while dividing one's mind among five tasks?"
"That is simply impossible!"
Xiao Li chuckled lightly, putting on a magnanimous expression, and said to Jiang Yunshang:
"How about this."
"If you admit defeat now, I can give you a discount."
"You would only need to work for me for free on forty jobs. How about that?"
After all.
We are all from the same sect.
This would also be giving him a way to save face, avoiding an awkward situation for everyone later.
However, what Xiao Li did not expect was.
Jiang Yunshang turned her head and cast a cold glance at him.
"This is just the beginning; why are you in such a hurry?"
Hearing this reply.
The smile on Xiao Li's face froze, and he immediately sneered:
"Fine, fine, fine."
"Then Senior Sister Jiang, just prepare to work for me for free for a year."
Lin Mo stood before the Starfire Furnace.
He glanced at the progress bar, which was jumping wildly as the skills began to balance each other.
And at the balance meter, which was still shaking chaotically.
"If this continues, it won't work..."
Lin Mo thought for a moment.
Someone must come forward to set the standard, and the others must follow that standard.
"Xiao Tu!"
Lin Mo shouted loudly in his heart.
Suddenly named, 'Earth Shield Technique' paused for a moment.
【"At your service, Master! What are your orders!"】
Lin Mo quickly issued commands:
"From now on, you take the lead!"
"Open your perception sharing!"
"Xiao Huo, Xiao Bing, Xiao Lei, Xiao Feng, all four of you, connect to Xiao Tu's elemental perception."
"Use Xiao Tu as the baseline; adjust everyone to match Xiao Tu exactly."
Perception sharing.
Lin Mo had tried this ability in past actual combat.
Now, it was just right to use it here.
Hearing Lin Mo's arrangement,
'Earth Shield Technique' paused for a moment.
【"Huh?"】
【"Me?"】
【"I take the lead?"】
At the same time,
'Fireball Technique', who had always considered itself the head of the household, instantly grew resentful.
【"On what grounds?!"】
【"I am the head of this household! If anyone is to lead, it should be me!"】
【"Ask me to cooperate with it? Does it even deserve that?!"】
Facing Xiao Huo's protest,
Lin Mo had expected this and began to explain:
"Xiao Tu's strength is already enough to fill the progress bar."
"What we need now is balance, not who deals the most damage."
"You are too impulsive; if you charge recklessly again, how can the others keep up?"
However,
'Fireball Technique' still felt it had lost face.
【"No!"】
【"This concerns my dignity!"】
【"I will never bow to the second-in-command..."】
"Shut up!"
Seeing that gentle persuasion was useless, Lin Mo immediately began to scold angrily.
"Do you not want to eat anymore?"
The moment these words were spoken,
'Fireball Technique', which had just been arrogant and domineering, instantly fell silent.
【"Uh..."】
【"I was just making a suggestion..."】
【"Since the Master says so, I will grudgingly cooperate with it just this once."】
"Tsk."
Lin Mo let out a scoffing laugh.
Easily settled.
The troublemaker Xiao Huo was dealt with.
'Lightning Strike Technique' had no objections.
'Ice Spike Technique' let out a delicate huff.
【"Whatever the Master says goes~"】
【"This Young Lady listens to the Master the most~"】
"Very good."
Lin Mo nodded in satisfaction.
"Xiao Tu, start sharing!"
"Everyone, align!"
【"Yes, Master!"】
'Earth Shield Technique' nodded heavily.
The next second,
the other skills instantly connected with 'Earth Escape Technique'.
Above the Starfire Furnace,
the five elemental forces that had been crashing and weaving chaotically seemed to find their backbone and began adjusting toward earth energy.
The progress bar kept adjusting left and right.
Watching the balance needle gradually settle into calm,
Lin Mo nodded in satisfaction.
"Yes, just like that."
"Hold it steady."
Suddenly.
The fire-element progress bar shot to the right once again.
Lin Mo frowned.
"Xiao Huo, why do you keep wanting to jump up? What do you mean by that?"
Called out and criticized by Lin Mo.
【Fireball】pouted.
【"Hmph……"】
【"This one understands."】
……
Not far behind.
Mo Qianjun's five disciples fell into a stretch of silence.
Han Shuang nudged Jiang Yunshang's arm.
"Senior Sister……"
"It looks like it's about to balance out?"
"My heavens!"
"Could it really produce a five-element perfect affix?"
"Senior Sister, that's a perfect affix!"
"It's not just a simple numerical increase—a perfect affix will trigger a change in the mechanics!"
Han Shuang grew more and more excited as she spoke.
"A change in the mechanics for all five elements?"
"What would that even look like? I can't even imagine……"
Listening to Han Shuang's excited words.
Jiang Yunshang said nothing, slightly raising her chin and casting a glance at Xiao Li not far away.
Xiao Li looked at Jiang Yunshang's provocative expression and gave a cold snort.
"Senior Sister Jiang, it's just the beginning, what's the rush?"
"If you want a five-element perfect affix, you have to maintain a perfect balance of all five elements for sixty seconds."
"Besides, it isn't fully balanced yet."
"Right now, it's still a long way off."
