My Synthesizer Has Talent

Just then, Steward Wang, Wang Bing, arrived.

"Thank you, Fairy and Su Qiren, for driving away the Demon Fiend."

"Sigh... When will we finally be able to eliminate the Demon Fiends?"

Wang Bing let out a sigh.

Su Qing nodded. "In that case, I’ll be heading back now."

"Yes, thank you for your efforts, Su Qiren. Your payment for tomorrow will not be reduced."

"As for the medicinal herbs you’ve been buying, Su Qiren, feel free to purchase them from our Wang Family’s shop. We can offer you a lower price."

Wang Bing replied.

’Oh-ho.’

’How annoying,’ Su Qing thought. ’These great families are really something. They were able to investigate my herb purchases so clearly.’

He had only bought them twice.

"Thank you for the trouble," Su Qing said with a smile.

He didn’t want to.

...

’Replicate the Second Layer Cyan Snake Posture one time.’

Su Qing went back, lay down on his bed, and replicated it again.

After all, this replication was a quick way to fall asleep. Who wouldn’t love that?

His mind grew heavy, and Su Qing fell asleep the moment his head hit the pillow.

「By the time the sun was high in the sky.」

After Su Qing got up and washed,

the moment he stepped out the door,

he saw that Xu Fairy.

If this had been their first meeting, Su Qing might have been a bit wary of her.

But now, the gap between this Xu Fairy and himself was massive.

He’d found out last night about this Immortal Cultivation Fairy.

Her strength was actually quite poor.

If it weren’t for the sword in her hand, she probably would have died quickly.

"Xu Fairy, what can I do for you?"

Su Qing smiled.

He was still eyeing her Cultivation Technique, so of course he had to be pleasant.

"Did you create that Demon Fiend?"

Xu Ningying had thought about it all night and had come to this conclusion.

After all, Su Qing’s behavior last night had been far too strange.

"Xu Fairy, that’s quite an accusation."

"Please be mindful of your own strength and the tone you’re using to question me."

Su Qing said flatly, his eyes turning cold again.

"If I were a bad person, you wouldn’t have lived to see this morning, especially after I saw your true strength last night."

"Some Fairy."

Su Qing gave Xu Ningying a disdainful look, then shook his head.

"That Demon Fiend was originally one of the Wang Family’s own."

Xu Ningying was stunned by Su Qing’s sudden reversal, but she could see that the look in his eyes had abruptly become dismissive.

’Just because I asked a single question?’

She really wanted to lose her temper. From the day she started her Cultivation until now, no ordinary person had ever dared to look at her like that!

Not a single one!

But after seeing Su Qing’s power last night, she knew she was no match for him if they were to fight.

Even with the sword in her hand, she couldn’t defeat him.

’He said that Demon Fiend was originally a member of the Wang Family?’

"..."

It seemed Xu Ningying was starting to understand a few things.

Seeing Su Qing begin to practice his Pile Skill, Xu Ningying asked, "Since you say it was a member of the Wang Family who turned into a Demon Fiend, what do you plan to do about it?"

"I feel I am partly responsible for her death. Do you understand?"

Su Qing said lightly.

"The Demon Fiend?"

Su Qing didn’t speak.

"When are you returning to Shangjing?"

Su Qing didn’t answer Xu Ningying.

"If I don’t need to deal with the Demon Fiend, I’ll naturally return tomorrow."

"Why not wait a while? Wait for the next Demon Fiend to appear?"

"The credit will be all yours."

Xu Ningying was confused at first, but when she heard the part about the credit being hers, her eyes widened. "Didn’t you just say you were partly responsible for the Demon Fiend’s death?"

"I did. That’s why I need to put her soul to rest."

"It’s not good to let this continue."

Su Qing asked, "With my level of strength, could I join the Demon-Extermination Bureau in Shangjing?"

"You?"

Xu Ningying shook her head. "I don’t know." 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚

"Why?"

"To join the Shangjing Demon-Extermination Bureau, you need a Spirit Root. With my recommendation, you can get tested. If you have a Spirit Root, you can join."

"But, among all the disciples of the great families in Shangjing, not a single one has been tested to have a Spirit Root."

Xu Ningying couldn’t help but shake her head. "Immortal Cultivation isn’t something you can achieve just by trying!"

"You need the aptitude for it."

Su Qing controlled his breathing. "Don’t worry about it. Just wait a few days before returning to Shangjing. I’ll go with you."

"I will handle the Wang Family’s matter."

"I will also handle the Demon Fiend matter."

After saying this, Su Qing closed his eyes and practiced his Pile Skill.

Seeing Su Qing had no desire to communicate, Xu Ningying knew she wasn’t welcome and left.

’After I get back, I have to investigate this, or at least report it to Lord Hu. How can a mortal be even stronger than me, a Gathering Spirit Fourth Level Cultivator?’

Only after watching Xu Ningying leave did Su Qing take a Great Replenishing Pill from his pocket and swallow it.

Instantly, he felt much more comfortable.

He could feel his qi and blood circulating rapidly through his body.

The sensation was truly wonderful.

’Four more replications left.’

Su Qing thought of his Second Layer Cyan Snake Posture.

’I have to use the Evolution attribute, Evolve it.’

That way, his Cyan Snake Posture could once again transform and become even more powerful.

A tenfold increase!

Su Qing couldn’t even dare to imagine how powerful that would be.

If it had been a tenfold increase from the very beginning...

If all nine syntheses had a tenfold increase...

On top of the original First Layer’s foundation, the result would be at least a hundred million times stronger.

Su Qing couldn’t even fathom that kind of Cultivation speed, or the effects of such training.

It was just that the trigger rate for the Evolution Talent was far too low.

’I have to get the Synthesizer to Level 10. Even a base ten percent synthesis chance would be so much better than what I have now.’

Su Qing silently began practicing the Cyan Snake Posture.

He practiced for another ten hours straight.

「After dusk.」

Su Qing quietly left the Wang Family residence.

It wasn’t completely dark yet. Su Qing could use the next few hours to synthesize, or to buy the medicinal ingredients for the Great Replenishing Pill.

...

Host: Su Qing.

Realm: Eighth Layer of Body Tempering [Second Layer Cyan Snake Posture (Evolution): Mastery (852/1000)]

Synthesizer Lv3 (36/400) [Synthesis Success Rate +3%, Mutation +1%, Evolution +1%, Divinization +1%]

He needed to buy a sickle, and while he was at it, spend his remaining silver on the ingredients for the Great Replenishing Pill.

——

「The desolate outskirts of the city.」

Weeds grew in abundance, all of them taller than a person.

SWISH!

SWISH!

The power of the Eighth Layer of Body Tempering gave him a formidable Physique. With the sickle in hand, he began to frantically clear the weeds.

After clearing a large patch of ground, Su Qing didn’t even look, just started synthesizing like mad.

[Synthesis Successful: First Layer Grass Cake]

[Synthesis Successful...]

[Synthesis Failed]

[Synthesis Failed]

[Synthesis Successful]

A stream of "Synthesis Failed" and "Synthesis Successful" messages appeared, and a large pile of grass cakes materialized near Su Qing.

Synthesizer Level 4 (134/500) [Synthesis Success Rate +4%, Mutation +1%, Evolution +1%, Divinization +1%]

"Choose Demonization Talent."

Synthesizer Level 4 (134/500) [Synthesis Success Rate +4%, Mutation +1%, Evolution +1%, Divinization +1%, Demonization +1%]

’Excellent.’

From now on, Su Qing could put all his future level-up points into the Evolution Talent.

Su Qing synthesized again.

[Synthesis Successful, Divinity Transformation Talent Triggered]

[Life Grass Ring: +10% Full Recovery (A Life Grass unintentionally cultivated by the God of Life, crafted into a ring)]

"Huh?"

’Why does this feel like I’m playing an online game?’

Su Qing looked at the greenish ring formed from the grass and put it on his finger without hesitation.

This was something created through Divinization, after all.

The moment he put it on, Su Qing felt his body become much more comfortable.

Especially his spirit. Combined with the Chaotic Life Body, Su Qing felt like he was about to take off.

[Synthesis Successful]

[Synthesis Successful]

...

Su Qing continued to synthesize the weeds.

Even common weeds provided synthesis experience.
