My Synthesizer Has Talent

"Finally, it’s finally over."

Su Qing silently stared at the synthesized object inside the Synthesizer.

He couldn’t help but fall silent.

He began to wonder if he was truly too vile.

"Sigh..."

’If this keeps up, I’ll develop a Heart Demon sooner or later!’

’When the time comes, I’ll have to learn a method to purify its soul and put it to rest.’

Although, Su Qing didn’t know if such a method even existed in this world, or if it would work on this Demon Fiend.

’The master of the Wang Family, was it?’

’Saved me the trouble of doing it myself.’

Su Qing sighed.

Then, with a weary expression, he left.

As soon as he stepped out, he saw a large crowd waiting.

"Go in and collect the bodies. They’re all dead. The Demon Fiend is dead, too."

"I’m tired. I’m going back to rest."

Without so much as a glance at anyone, Su Qing walked away.

The throng of Wang Family members all parted to make a path for Su Qing to leave.

Upon hearing the news, Wang Zhongping shouted, "We thank Su Qiren for his help!"

Then, Wang Zhongping went inside to take a look.

The scene inside was truly too ghastly to behold.

In one particular area, the ground had been smashed into a two-meter-deep crater.

When Housekeeper Wang came in, he gasped in shock.

"Su Qiren’s strength is immeasurable."

Wang Zhongping looked at the crater in the ground and nodded in agreement.

Steward Wang, on the other hand, began searching around.

He searched until he found the body of the Wang Family’s Seventh Master—no, it had been reduced to fragments.

There were at least a hundred bodies here.

...

After an unpleasant fight, Su Qing returned to his residence in the Wang Family estate, feeling quite displeased.

He began his Cultivation of the Cyan Snake Posture.

Cultivation was a way for him to vent his frustrations.

’This world is so strange.’

’I wasn’t wrong to act for my own sake.’

’Wang Li’s actions weren’t wrong either. The fault lay in the chasm between them, in the conflicting mindsets of the Wang Family, myself, and Wang Li.’

’As for how Wang Li died...’

Su Qing genuinely didn’t know.

Nor did he want to investigate it too deeply.

He had never been close to Wang Li in the first place.

’Steward Wang...’

’The Wang Family...’

Su Qing pondered for a while before shaking his head.

「Daybreak.」

Host: Su Qing

Realm: Ninth Layer of Body Tempering [Second Layer Cyan Snake Posture (Evolution): Mastery (966/1000)]

Synthesis Lv5 (563/600) [Synthesis Success Rate +5%, Mutated +1%, Evolution +2%, Divinization +1%, Demonization +1%]

’The Cyan Snake Posture is about to break through.’

’The Synthesizer is also about to level up.’

Su Qing was also thinking about the Five Qi Demon Spirit Skill.

’No matter what, I have to synthesize it.’

’Should I at least synthesize the First Layer with an Evolution bonus?’

Su Qing thought to himself.

’After all, there’s a huge difference between a two-fold and a twenty-fold effect.’

’The First Layer gives a two-fold increase, but with Evolution, it becomes a twenty-fold effect.’

’If the First Layer is twenty-fold, then the Second Layer would add another twenty-fold on top of that. It would be absurdly powerful.’

’I synthesized a lot of First Layer Five Qi Nourishing Yuan Skill manuals before.’

’Might as well just synthesize them all.’

[Synthesis Failed]

[Synthesis Successful...]

...

"Finally done synthesizing. Just a little more and the Synthesizer will level up."

Synthesis Lv5 (586/600) [Synthesis Success Rate +5%, Mutated +1%, Evolution +2%, Divinization +1%, Demonization +1%]

’When it levels up, I’ll add another point to Evolution Talent.’

Su Qing began synthesizing the Five Qi Demon Spirit Skill again.

After another dozen or so synthesis attempts,

Host: Su Qing

Realm: Ninth Layer of Body Tempering [Second Layer Cyan Snake Posture (Evolution): Mastery (966/1000)]

Synthesis Lv6 (3/700) [Synthesis Success Rate +6%, Mutated +1%, Evolution +3%, Divinization +1%, Demonization +1%]

The Synthesizer’s Level had increased by one.

Su Qing added a point to his Evolution Talent.

Then he started synthesizing again.

There were failures and successes.

In any case, replicating this Cultivation Technique at his current stage wasn’t a huge burden for Su Qing.

He could just rest for a bit and then synthesize again.

The sky gradually darkened.

[Synthesis Successful. Divinity Transformation Talent triggered. The Five Qi Demon Spirit Skill has undergone Divinization, and its effect has been increased five-fold.]

[Five Qi God Demon Technique: Steal the Heaven and Earth Five Elements Spiritual Qi and absorb it into the body. Upon cultivating to Perfection, one can obtain the Five Qi God Demon Body.]

"Another five-fold increase?"

’The Five Qi Demon Spirit Skill is a five-fold Demonization of the Five Qi Nourishing Yuan Skill. And the Five Qi God Demon Technique is a five-fold increase over the Five Qi Demon Spirit Skill. That means it’s twenty-five times stronger than the original Five Qi Nourishing Yuan Skill.’

Su Qing considered it for a moment. ’Seems like this is good enough to practice.’

’My Evolution Talent has a 3% chance, yet it hasn’t triggered even once.’

Su Qing felt a bit unlucky. The Evolution Talent he wanted most hadn’t appeared, but the Divinity Transformation Talent had instead.

’This constitution, the Five Qi God Demon Body... what exactly is it? Will it produce a different effect, just like my current Chaotic Life Body?’

"Su Qiren, please join the banquet."

Wang Bing approached and spoke to Su Qing in a low, respectful voice.

"Mm, I’ll be right there."

Su Qing hadn’t trained much all day.

Today was the day the Wang Family was to make good on their promises.

The Martial Arts manuals, and the silver Su Qing had requested.

He had told the Wang Family this morning: of the one thousand taels of silver, nine hundred were to be converted into the medicinal herbs he had previously purchased.

The Wang Family had obediently done as he asked.

---

"Su Qiren is here! Please, have a seat."

Upon seeing Su Qing arrive, Wang Ligui couldn’t help but laugh heartily.

"This will be my last night at the Wang Family estate. Patriarch Wang, I trust the things I requested have been gathered?"

"The medicinal herbs, as well as all the Martial Arts manuals from the County City, have been prepared for Su Qiren."

Looking at the white mourning banners hanging all around, Su Qing didn’t feel the atmosphere was very festive.

This was because the Wang Family was holding a funeral.

Having said his piece, Su Qing turned to leave the banquet.

"That’s enough. I have no appetite in this kind of environment. Send the items to my residence. I will leave the Wang Family estate tomorrow."

"We wouldn’t dare be disrespectful. Take care, Su Qiren. Wang Bing, have someone move the items to Su Qiren’s room."

"Yes, sir."

---

「Inside his residence.」

Su Qing frantically synthesized the medicinal herbs.

[Synthesis Successful: Great Replenishing Pill]

[Synthesis Successful...]

...

After a long session of synthesis,

Great Replenishing Pill x447

Su Qing wrapped them all up in a cloth bundle.

It had been quite an ordeal.

After he finished synthesizing, Su Qing picked up the Martial Arts manuals.

There were about twenty of them.

Only seven were Pile Skill manuals.

The rest were fist and foot techniques, or skills for wielding sabers and swords.

’The Pile Skills are what really increase my strength. The rest is just flashy nonsense.’

’And not a single escape-focused Step Technique among them!’

’Synthesizing seven manuals will be difficult, too.’

Su Qing read through all the Pile Skill manuals.

Wild Bull Posture, Tiger Bone Posture, White Crane Posture, Spiritual Monkey Posture, Ironman Posture, and Flowing Cloud Posture.

’This...’

’I’m still one short... Should I try using my First Layer Cyan Snake Posture and Second Layer Cyan Snake Posture?’

After a moment’s thought, Su Qing immediately began to synthesize.

[Synthesis Failed]

’It seems synthesizing different skills is just harder.’

’I still have four copies of the Second Layer Cyan Snake Posture. I refuse to believe this won’t work.’

[Synthesis Failed]

[Synthesis Failed]

[Synthesis Failed]

[Synthesis Successful: Unknown Pile Skill]

[Unknown Pile Skill: Due to a forced successful synthesis by the Synthesizer, nine Pile Skills have been combined into one. The dross has been removed, and the essence has been extracted. It strengthens the body’s qi and blood. Can only be cultivated within the Body Tempering Realm.]

’Unknown Pile Skill? The Second Layer Cyan Snake Posture was synthesized into it as well. This Pile Skill must be stronger than the Second Layer Cyan Snake Posture.’

’I should give it a name... Cyan Flood Dragon Posture?’

As Su Qing thought of the name, the text in the Synthesizer changed accordingly.

The "Unknown Pile Skill" became the "Cyan Flood Dragon Skill."

As for why he didn’t name it the Cyan Dragon Posture, Su Qing felt that this Pile Skill wasn’t worthy of the name "Cyan Dragon." Choosing "Flood Dragon" was more appropriate.
