My Synthesizer Has Talent

Su Qing returned to Cold Extremity Peak.

He didn’t see his junior and senior sisters.

These days, Su Qing’s only focus was silently using his Synthesizer to create more Spiritual Qi.

He hoped to upgrade his Synthesizer to the point where Standardization would trigger one hundred percent of the time.

「Several days later.」

Just as Su Qing was about to eat, he sensed someone was about to enter.

Sure enough.

It was his master.

"You have food and didn’t even call for me? When did you get back?" Ouyang Mingming’s eyes were fixed on the grand feast laid out on the table.

Ignoring Su Qing completely, she sat down in a chair.

At this point, Su Qing could tell Ouyang Mingming’s cultivation level—around the Golden Core Middle Tier.

However, her face seemed to be devoid of color.

She looked a little sickly.

"Master, where have you been? How come you look even paler?" Su Qing felt it would be too blunt to say she had no color in her face at all.

"Pale?"

Ouyang Mingming huffed, "I’m injured, don’t you get it? I’m recuperating."

"Let me tell you, I fought three Demon Kings at once and remained undefeated."

"If a fellow Elder hadn’t shown up, I definitely would have slain every single one of those Demon Kings."

"..." Su Qing chose to remain silent.

’What could I possibly say?’ Judging by Ouyang Mingming’s complexion, it was a miracle she hadn’t been the one who was slain.

"Don’t worry, I’ll be fine after half a year of rest." Ouyang Mingming was not standing on ceremony.

She began picking up food with her chopsticks and eating.

"Doesn’t Elder Jin have any Tier Three Healing Elixirs?" Su Qing couldn’t help but ask.

"Healing Elixirs? I don’t know. He’d ask for Spirit Stones, and I don’t have that many."

"I’d rather just recuperate at the Ten Thousand Tribulations Sect for half a year." Ouyang Mingming winced at the mere thought of Spirit Stones.

Su Qing frowned but said nothing.

He searched his mind for something that could heal Golden Core-level injuries.

There was nothing among Sea-covering Master’s possessions.

Su Qing still had one Divine Essence Tree King Fruit.

It increased one’s lifespan by fifty years.

’Should I take it out...’

It wouldn’t affect him at all to give it away, but how could he present it to his master without arousing suspicion?

Su Qing also didn’t know if a fruit that extended lifespan would be useful for healing injuries.

"Master, here." Su Qing took out the Divine Essence Tree King Fruit.

The moment the fruit appeared, the atmosphere changed completely.

It was a cyan fruit covered in intricate patterns, its skin rippling with a formless energy.

It was clearly no ordinary item.

"I found this in a Secret Realm. It seems to be a fruit that grew after a tree withered. It looked precious, so I didn’t dare to eat it."

"I sensed that tree was around Tier Three, which is why I really didn’t dare to eat the fruit."

Su Qing handed it to Ouyang Mingming.

Ouyang Mingming dazedly took it, her right hand still holding chopsticks full of food. She was stunned because...

...she had seen the fruit of this tree before.

This wasn’t the fruit of some Tier Three Spirit Tree; it was an extremely rare treasure that extended one’s life, something Ouyang Mingming had only ever seen in illustrated books.

The fruit of a Divine Origin Tree.

And it was even more beautiful than a regular Divine Essence Fruit.

’What kind of luck does my disciple have? How could he be so fortunate?’

If she consumed this fruit, she would surely make a full recovery.

But if she traded it for Spirit Stones, she could get a sky-high price.

Doing so, however, would completely trample on her disciple’s good intentions.

"Thank you, my dear disciple. But you should know, this is a Divine Essence Fruit. It can extend your lifespan."

"Extend my lifespan?" Upon hearing this, Su Qing pretended to stare at the fruit with wide eyes.

He put on an expression of slight regret.

"Hmph! You’ve already given it to your master. How could you ask for it back?"

"I’ll be taking this fruit, then." Ouyang Mingming accepted it without any hesitation, storing it in her Small Pocket World.

Inwardly, Su Qing was beaming.

He put on a relieved expression and said, "It’s my duty as your disciple to help you with your troubles."

"Mmm~" Ouyang Mingming nodded in satisfaction.

"Be careful when you leave the Sect lately. Those fellows from the Demon Court are restless. I’m afraid they’re about to make a move against the Human Race."

"I know, Master," Su Qing nodded.

With his strength, he’d wager that it would take at least ten Demon Kings to even think about stopping him.

A Demon King was equivalent to a Golden Core Cultivator.

And since Su Qing was no ordinary Golden Core Cultivator, he wasn’t afraid at all.

"What about my senior and junior sisters?" Su Qing asked.

"Those two went out."

"For training, you could say," Ouyang Mingming said, a melancholic look appearing on her face.

Su Qing nodded. "No wonder I haven’t seen them."

...

「The next day.」

Su Qing once again went to the Holy Book Pavilion to spend some money.

The Earth Vein Resonance Technique was powerful, but it was quite limited.

He wanted a more versatile Escape Technique.

Heaven-Reaching Dharma Light.

It allowed one to fly at faster speeds using only a small amount of Magical Power.

The light produced during flight would also take on the color corresponding to the user’s Magical Power.

It was very cheap.

Su Qing was going for it because it was cheap and a low-level Magic.

After buying it, Su Qing was definitely going to test the effects of Standardization.

[Synthesis Successful]

[Heaven-Reaching Dharma Light +1: Allows you to guide your flight with a small amount of True Essence. Flight speed is doubled.]

"Not good enough."

Su Qing continued to replicate it.

[Synthesis Successful: Standardization Triggered]

[Upgraded Heaven-Reaching Dharma Light: When you use the Upgraded Heaven-Reaching Dharma Light, your flight speed will be x2.]

"Isn’t this Standardization a bit too trashy?"

"It’s not as good as Evolution."

Su Qing was a little annoyed.

He tried again.

[Synthesis Successful: Standardization Triggered]

[Heaven-Reaching Dharma Light +1: When using Heaven-Reaching Dharma Light +1, your flight’s glow will be twice as bright as the original Heaven-Reaching Dharma Light.]

"..."

’Why are the Rules produced by Standardization always so unreliable?’ Su Qing thought to himself.

Next, he activated Mutation and tried synthesizing the Heaven-Reaching Dharma Light once.

[Synthesis Successful: Mutation Triggered]

[Light Projector: Use Magical Power to make the Light Projector emit light.]

"..."

"So unreliable."

Su Qing complained. ’Isn’t this thing from Mutation just a flashlight?’

After that, he obediently used Divinization and Demonization.

And Evolution.

[Heaven-Soaring God and Demon +2: Consumes normal Magical Power to erupt at 400x speed, or consumes a minuscule amount of Magical Power for standard flight.]

’God Demon Transformation and Evolution are still the most useful.’

"Extract."

Su Qing took a moment to process it, a strange look appearing on his face.

"This Flying Escape technique seems a bit... ostentatious."

A God Demon fears no living creature, so their travels are always accompanied by a grand and powerful display.

"But at least it’s fast." 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖

Su Qing breathed a sigh of relief.

He had to cultivate this Escape Technique to the Perfection realm.

But using it within the Ten Thousand Tribulations Sect would be far too conspicuous.

’I’ll go to the Celestial Sea Realm.’

As soon as Su Qing arrived in the Celestial Sea Realm, he began to fly like a madman.

He headed straight for a region of the sea unoccupied by any Sect.

Although the display was grand, his speed was so great that few could give chase.

As he flew, numerous dao patterns formed from light surrounded him.

That was why no one pursued him.

Su Qing also made sure to bypass the main islands of the sects.

There were basically no problems.

After a while, Su Qing’s speed became faster and faster.

This was because his Heaven-Soaring God and Demon technique had broken through.

The spectacle he created also grew larger and larger.

Until...

When Su Qing no longer knew where he was...

...the surrounding seas began to fill with a thick mist.

And the ocean water had turned a deep blue.

Su Qing knew he had likely overshot his destination.

"The Spiritual Qi here is so dense."

Su Qing could feel that the Spiritual Qi was truly denser here than in the Celestial Sea Realm.

"Could this be the Nether Sea?" Su Qing couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow as he scanned his surroundings.

This part of the sea, aside from the stronger winds and waves and the denser Spiritual Qi, seemed no different from any other.
