How to Create Skills

"No, we don't have enough chips right now."

Xiao Fan shook his head inwardly.

Jian Qingfeng was mistaken for Pseudo-Apostle and was hunted down by all the villages in the entire Trial Land.

Even now, Xiao Fan doesn't know what Pseudo-Apostle is, but from the descriptions given by Yu Ling and the others, he can guess that it must be an existence that everyone in the entire Trial Land wants to kill.

To get the locals like Yu Ling to accept Jian Qingfeng and his group, who have already been judged to be Pseudo-Apostle, simply using the three Elemental Melt and healing is not enough.

"Creative Skills!"

This is the only way Xiao Fan can think of to gain leverage right now.

Although he didn't know the Apostle's ability to create skills in the Trial Land, he hadn't seen a single Apostle use any skills from Shui Tuntun Village to Yu Mo Village.

What does this tell us?

Creating skills in this secret realm is even more difficult than in <Cloud Sea>.

"If that's the case, then I have my bargaining chip."

Xiao Fan was full of confidence.

The only downside is that he still doesn't know how to create skills.

Thinking of this, Xiao Fan glanced at Yu Mo beside him, a thought forming in his mind.

"Yu Mo, I see you're quite capable, why don't you create a skill?"

"Brother Chen, are you kidding me?"

Upon hearing Xiao Fan's question, Yu Mo looked terrified.

"I can't do that. With my abilities, I might not even be able to create a single skill in my lifetime. Please don't make fun of me."

Xiao Fan: "This will work."

Yu Mo: "This is really impossible, bro. Creating skills is too difficult! I'd be satisfied if I could just achieve perfect elemental integration into my weapon in this lifetime."

Xiao Fan choked.

He originally wanted Yu Mo to create skills; he figured he could just ask around and find out how. Who knew this brat would be so useless?

That's infuriating.

"Hmph! I say you're capable, so you're capable! You can't even create skills, how are you going to be a warrior of the Land of Four Extremes in the future?"

Xiao Fan refused to give up; he wanted to struggle a little longer to rescue Jian Qingfeng and the others back to the village as soon as possible.

"Me?" Yu Mo craned her neck and pointed to herself. "A warrior from the Land of Four Extremes?"

Yu Mo rolled her eyes.

"Stop joking, Brother Chen. Over the tens of thousands of years on the continent, countless Apostle have entered the Trial Land, but not a single true warrior of the Land of Four Extremes has emerged. Everyone's just shouting slogans."

Xiao Fan:...

"No, is there really that much information?"

Has the mainland never produced a true warrior from the Land of Four Extremes? How do they know that entering the Land of Four Extremes guarantees becoming a warrior?

The news was so outrageous that even Xiao Fan doubted it was true.

If Yu Mo's expression hadn't been so serious, he would have suspected that Yu Mo had guessed he wasn't a true Apostle and was deliberately testing him with those words.

What a load of empty slogans!

I'm stunned! I'm completely stunned!

"However... I'd like to try creating skills. If I accidentally succeed, I'll be famous throughout the continent."

Yu Mo clenched her fists, a glint of longing flashing in her eyes.

To possess one's own unique skills and become renowned throughout the continent! This is the lifelong dream of every Apostle! Just thinking about it gets the blood pumping!

These words instantly revived Xiao Fan, who had been in despair.

"Then what are we waiting for! Let's create it right here, and I'll give you my opinion."

Xiao Fan suppressed his excitement and spoke calmly.

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone present looked at Xiao Fan with strange expressions.

"If nothing unexpected happens, I've been exposed again."

Xiao Fan felt completely numb.

"I suppose these people are used to it by now."

Yu Mo looked up, closed her eyes, and took a deep breath.

He had intended to play dumb, but Xiao Fan had gone too far this time!

Having exposed himself in front of so many Apostle in the village, did he even care about his identity?

It seems we can't keep him.

Oh well! He did treat them for a day, after all.

This time, let's... let's...

Yu Mo opened her eyes, staring in shock at the scene before her, unable to utter a single word.

At some point, a vine as thick as a hemp rope Entangle Xiao Fan's right arm.

The vine seemed alive, wrapping around his arm and then letting go, then wrapping around again.

"This is... Wood Element Fusion?" Yu Mo's fingers trembled slightly.

Xiao Fan: "This wood element is quite fun."

Yu Mo:...

What else could he do but continue deceiving himself?

Four Element Fusion —just how high is its elemental affinity?

Garlic Bird, he's already fused with the four elements, could he be Pseudo-Apostle? He can't be fake at all!

The others also looked away, looking up at the sky and down at the ground.

It's so tough for them; in order to become Upstream Village, they're putting on an act again.

Jiu Chen! This is the last time we'll spoil you! We hope you behave well and don't give yourself away again!

Seeing everyone's reactions, Xiao Fan knew he had passed the test once again.

"It seems that multi -Elemental Melt are something that would make the Apostle of the Trial Land abandon their principles."

"Then I'm relieved."

Xiao Fan gave a wicked smile.

His body has been forged by water and fire, and he has now figured out how to Elemental Melt.

He can Elemental Melt if he wants.

But... I'll melt it back next time I'm exposed.

Xiao Fan was truly at his wit's end; this secret realm was far too difficult!

Players have no way of learning about the background system of the secret realm.

At this moment, Yu Mo also realized that Xiao Fan seemed to know nothing about their world.

This is the most typical behavior of Pseudo-Apostle...

But he fused the four elements!!!

Yu Mo was conflicted.

He had only heard about the terror of the Pseudo-Apostle from mainland history.

In fact, since his birth, Pseudo-Apostle have always been hunted down. He had never heard of any Pseudo-Apostle posing a threat to the continent, which is why he didn't hate Xiao Fan that much.

However, Pseudo-Apostle is not accepted by the public. If they want Xiao Fan to stay in their village, they must disguise him as a real Apostle.

With this in mind, Yu Mo decided to secretly pass on the knowledge of the mainland to Xiao Fan.

For example, how to create skills.

"Creating a skill requires combining elements with the form of Monster Beast. Specifically, you must first decide what skill you want to create, and then acquire something from the corresponding Monster Beast —such as its fur, flesh, or bones."

"Taking the Fire Element and the Monster Rabbit as an example, you first need to kill a fire-attribute Monster Rabbit, obtain the materials from its body, and then incorporate the Fire Element into it to create a skill."

Xiao Fan's heart sank. He hadn't expected that creating skills in this secret realm would have a threshold, requiring the hunting of Monster Beast materials needed for the skill.

That's not good!

The skills he envisioned, especially the Monster Beast forms, were incredibly powerful; with his current strength, it would be impossible for him to kill them.

What should we do?

If he can't create any powerful skills, what leverage does he have to save Jian Qingfeng and the others?

"Did you remember?"

Yu Mo asked.

Xiao Fan twitched the corner of his mouth.

"What's there to memorize? Isn't this common sense? What I meant when I told you to create skills on the spot was to go and hunt the Monster Beast you need. Didn't you understand?"

Yu Mo: I'm begging you! Shut up!
