Creating Element Skills
"I don't have enough wood element, can I use other elements to make up the difference?"
What sets Xiao Fan apart from the other Apostle is that he possesses multiple elements within his body.
If he doesn't have enough wood element, he can make up for it with other elements...
Although tortoise shells belong to the wood element, doesn't he actually lack the wood element?
Since we're going to fail anyway, we might as well give it a try.
Of course, Xiao Fan didn't dare to act recklessly; his first thought was the water element.
Water nourishes wood; these two elements are symbiotic, and the Demon Turtle lives in water.
There's nothing wrong with him using water elements to make up the difference, right?
Without delay, Xiao Fan immediately activated the Water Element Fusion within his body and attempted to merge it into the tortoise shell.
The water element did not immediately merge with the turtle shell upon contact, but there was no other reaction either.
Xiao Fan's eyes lit up.
If they're not opposed, there's hope!
He no longer cared about how to create skills; his mind was completely focused on lighting up the tortoise shell and getting the chance to create skills.
With this in mind, Xiao Fan continuously urged the water element within his body to try and integrate it into the tortoise shell.
Although the tortoise shell did not reject the approach of the water element, it also never accepted it.
The situation was extremely tense, but Xiao Fan dared not rush it and could only try slowly and gently.
Time passed second by second, and the bonfire in the center of the square was almost completely burned out.
The tortoise shell in front of Xiao Fan remained unchanged, and many people around him were growing impatient.
"And they're still mocking our Brother Mo? They can't even light up a tortoise shell themselves."
"It's been almost an hour, I doubt it'll be able to light it up."
"Of course! He's only at what level; the amount of wood element in his body isn't even enough to light a single tree branch."
The people around whispered among themselves; no one believed that Xiao Fan could light up the tortoise shell.
"Old Mo, it looks like you're going to lose your chance to be a son," Yin joked.
Yu Mo rolled her eyes and then said...
"No surprises whatsoever. But then again, Jiu Chen is exceptionally talented. His failed attempt to create a skill is just a blow to his arrogance; don't actually provoke him. His elemental affinity is too strong; he still has a chance in the future."
"Knew."
On Xiao Fan's side, the water element still couldn't be integrated into the tortoise shell.
"Are we just going to give up like this?"
Xiao Fan felt utterly hopeless.
But at that moment, Xiao Fan suddenly noticed that the wood element surrounding the tortoise shell was beginning to absorb the water element from Xiao Fan's hand.
Xiao Fan's eyes lit up.
Water cannot be absorbed into the turtle shell, but it can be absorbed into the wood element on the shell.
With this in mind, Xiao Fan immediately changed his target and began to integrate water element into wood element.
The moment the two elements approached, the wood element frantically absorbed the water element from Xiao Fan's body.
A moment later, Xiao Fan noticed that the wood element surrounding the tortoise shell had increased slightly.
"It works!"
Xiao Fan was overjoyed and began to continuously circulate the water element in his body into the wood element. To his even greater surprise, the wood element seemed to become more active after the water element was incorporated.
Xiao Fan originally thought that even the combined water and wood elements within his body wouldn't be enough to fill the giant tortoise shell.
However, as the two elements merged, the wood element rapidly increased, almost completely filling the tortoise shell.
"Almost there, we'll be able to light up the turtle shell soon."
Xiao Fan tensed up.
He's burned out!
The water and wood elements in my body are all depleted, and now the elements in my tortoise shell are generated from the interaction of these two elements.
Xiao Fan dared not incorporate any other elements, fearing that the gains would outweigh the losses.
Other villagers, lacking affinity with the elements, couldn't perceive the changes in the tortoise shell.
In their eyes, Xiao Fan had been touching the tortoise shell for almost three hours, and the shell hadn't changed at all.
This was clearly a failure!
"How long is he going to keep pretending? I'm getting sleepy."
That's enough, everyone needs to upgrade early tomorrow.
"Let's finish this quickly, my legs are numb."
Many people complained quietly.
"Old Mo, don't let Jiu Chen try it, it's late," Yin said impatiently.
Yu Mo nodded.
"Yes, it's time to end this."
Just as Yu Mo was about to step forward, a blinding beam of light suddenly shot into the sky, illuminating the entire night sky in an instant.
Unlike the previous soft green, this green was so bright that it was impossible to look directly at it, and it was surrounded by wisps of pale blue light that intertwined and flowed around it, creating an astonishing spectacle.
"What... what is this?"
Yu Mo stared in shock at the scene before her.
If he wasn't mistaken, the light was coming from the tortoise shell in front of Xiao Fan?
Xiao Fan lit up the tortoise shell?
Impossible! Absolutely impossible!
Yu Mo shook her head frantically.
Xiao Fan is clearly a newcomer to the Trial Land. Even though he is Healing Apostle and levels up faster than the average person, there are too many Element Seed in his body, and he probably doesn't have much wood element.
How could it be possible to light up such a large Monster Beast material!
What exactly happened? Where did things go wrong?
Where did he get so many elements?
In comparison, this dazzling light doesn't seem so important.
It is said that the brighter the light, the stronger the element's power.
It seems to be true.
Given Xiao Fan's affinity for elements, it's normal for his elemental strength to be high.
However, this was the first time Yu Mo had ever seen someone this strong.
That's incredible!
"Wow! Jiu Chen lit up the tortoise shell! I knew he could do it! That light... he's amazing!"
Yu Ling jumped and danced with joy; anyone who didn't know better would think she had lit up the tortoise shell.
He snapped out of his daze and swallowed hard.
"Old Mo, could Jiu Chen have actually succeeded in creating this skill?"
Yu Mo:...
He was starting to have some doubts too!
"Oh! Does that mean my brother has become Jiu Chen's son?"
Yu Ling couldn't jump anymore.
Yu Mo: I'm begging you, please stop! I don't want to hear it.
"Imagine the skill you want to create in your mind."
Seeing the notification appear before him, Xiao Fan breathed a sigh of relief.
"At least it didn't backfire."
Given the opportunity to develop skills, he is at least 50% confident of success.
Looking at the blinding beam of light in front of him, Xiao Fan was somewhat surprised.
Why is the light from Yu Mo's tortoise shell so soft, while his is so dazzling?
"Forget it, the notification means it's successful, why think so much?"
"Let's think about what skill to create first?"
Xiao Fan looked at the pillar of light in front of him; besides the dazzling green, there was also a faint blue.
It must be the water element he incorporated.
Wood plus water.
This made Xiao Fan's prepared skills less interesting.
"How about we try something innovative and see if we can add two elements to the skill?"
Xiao Fan had this idea entirely because he felt that the image of a tortoise as Monster Beast wasn't very appealing.
If he were to add the element of water, he could think of a mythical beast.
Black Tortoise!
This one is also turtle-shaped, but it's much cooler than the Demon Turtle.
But Xiao Fan wasn't sure if he could succeed.
"Whatever, at least we've figured out how to light up the tortoise shell, let's give it a try."
Xiao Fan no longer hesitated and quickly came up with his skills.
"Please mentally rehearse the skill you want to create."
Xiao Fan unleashed his creativity, demonstrating the skills he had created in a dazzling display.
"Skills assessment in progress, please wait."
