My Synthesizer Has Talent

Chapter 260: Chapter 258: The Demon Realm Rift Returns

Inside the Moon God Sect’s Alchemy Hall.

Today, it was Su Qing’s turn to oversee the affairs of the Alchemy Hall.

The shifts were assigned monthly, and each one lasted for a full month.

His duties included disposing of waste pills from the alchemy process and handling any troublemakers.

He also managed the Alchemy Rooms, which were typically rented out to other cultivators.

In any case, all Su Qing had to do was manage.

"Pill Master Ye, I want to try again today. I have a feeling my Alchemy Technique will succeed this time," a male cultivator at the Qi Cultivation Sixth Layer said, his eyes filled with hope.

"Zhang Pingzhong, whether you succeed or not is no concern of mine."

"Just don’t forget to pay the Spirit Stones you owe," Su Qing said with a smile. This kid was the most diligent disciple he had ever seen when it came to renting an Alchemy Room.

He was constantly trying to refine Qi Nourishing Pills and had produced a mountain of waste pills in the process.

Su Qing wasn’t quite sure how to describe the kid. He had no talent and no aptitude, yet he was diligent and willing to spend Spirit Stones to improve himself.

"I know, I know, Pill Master Ye. When the pill is forming, how can I smoothly solidify the medicinal power?"

"Solidify the medicinal power? Why would you need to solidify it? All you have to do is use your technique to smoothly and slowly distribute the medicinal power, and the Qi Nourishing Pill will form naturally."

Su Qing offered a pointer. The Qi Nourishing Pill was, after all, one of the simplest and most Entry Level elixirs.

The Fasting Pill was a close second.

But for those in the Qi Cultivation Realm, the Qi Nourishing Pill was the most useful.

If you didn’t consume them yourself, you could sell them for Spirit Stones.

As long as you maintained a Pill Formation Success Rate of 20%, you wouldn’t lose money. Anything higher, and you started earning Spirit Stones.

"Thank you for your guidance, Pill Master Ye," Zhang Pingzhong said gratefully.

The kid went off to practice alchemy right after Su Qing said his piece.

He excitedly rented an Alchemy Room and rushed inside.

"Such an impatient kid," Su Qing muttered, shaking his head.

He paid him no further mind.

He was merely a spectator; the boy’s success was up to him.

If Su Qing offered a tip and the other person learned from it, that was a testament to their own Comprehension.

「Some time later.」

...

"Pill Master! Pill Master!"

"Please, save them!"

A male cultivator at the Qi Refining Eighth Layer—handsome, with a resolute expression—stumbled in, his head and body covered in blood.

Despite his grievous injuries, he had gritted his teeth and found his way to Su Qing.

He ran in and fell to his knees, begging Su Qing for help.

"Calm down. Where are they?" Su Qing knew this was part of his duty.

"Outside, outside! Pill Master," the male cultivator said, his breathing growing erratic.

Then he collapsed to the floor and passed out.

’What a tragic sight,’

Su Qing thought, shaking his head. He had already noticed the condition of the other cultivators outside; they were in even worse shape than this one.

One was a female cultivator who had lost both her legs, her body covered in lacerations.

Another was a male cultivator who was missing an arm, his abdomen suffering from a severe wound that wouldn’t stop bleeding.

The last one was in a similar state: a male cultivator with part of his head torn open and an arm missing. All told, the one who had made it into the Alchemy Hall was the least injured of them all.

It was truly a painful sight.

The injuries looked like they were caused by wild beasts.

Su Qing went to each of them and infused them with a breath of his own power.

This was Su Qing’s Magical Power, and it was more than enough to keep these Qi Cultivation Realm cultivators from dying.

"Xiaosong, get over here! Help me stop the bleeding!" Su Qing called out.

This was one of the apprentice Pill Masters, currently serving as a miscellaneous task worker and the Shopkeeper.

"Right away, Lord Ye!" Xiaosong ran out, but he froze when he saw the gruesome scene.

"My lord, I’ll go get the others."

"Go, and be quick about it," Su Qing said with a shake of his head.

’The Moon God Palace’s Alchemy Hall is too understaffed.’

’The Ten Thousand Tribulations Sect’s Alchemy Hall used to have plenty of people, at least.’

’Perhaps each sect just has a different focus for its development.’

"Looks like I have to handle this myself again," Su Qing sighed.

Except for the one who had collapsed inside the Alchemy Hall, these cultivators were all crippled.

Their path of Qi Cultivation was all but hopeless now.

With missing limbs and incomplete meridians, their Cultivation would regress rather than advance.

But they were still cultivators of the Moon God Palace, and Su Qing was a member as well.

After saving their lives, they could be assigned elsewhere to handle some minor affairs. It was essentially a way to let them live out their days in retirement.

Su Qing got to work.

...

「Later, the Foundation Establishment Cultivator, Tao Mingze, arrived.」

"Lord Tao," Su Qing greeted with a salute.

Tao Mingze took in the tragic state of the several cultivators.

He couldn’t help but sigh.

"Xiaoye, patch up their wounds. Afterward, we’ll send them back to live in the city."

"Lord Tao, did something happen?"

"No matter how you look at it, their wounds look like they were torn by a ferocious beast."

Su Qing asked, puzzled. It was too strange. ’Could the Demon Court be making a move again?’

Tao Mingze shook his head. "No, it was the Demon Race."

"They were dispatched to investigate the disappearance of a nearby village."

"Initially, the sect thought it was a Demon Fiend and didn’t pay it much mind."

"But it turned out to be a Demon Realm Rift, and nine demons from the Demon Realm emerged."

"They’re lucky to be alive."

"But don’t worry about it. It was just a small Demon Realm Rift. A Golden Core Elder has already gone to deal with it."

Tao Mingze sighed again, glancing at the injured cultivators.

Then he entered a side door of the Alchemy Hall.

’The Demon Race?’

’The Demon Race has appeared again?’

Su Qing felt that the continent was simply fraught with disaster.

’Look at places like the Celestial Sea Realm and the Nether Sea Realm. They’re both relatively stable. Aside from the large and powerful storms and ocean waves...’

’...and the ferocious Sea Beasts, nothing unexpected ever seems to happen there.’

...

Without Xiaoqing here now,

Su Qing’s own Inference could only deduce that the Demon Race was invading.

He found no connection with the Demon Court.

’Should I synthesize another existence like Xiaoqing?’

’Once it gains Spiritual Wisdom, I wouldn’t have to control the high-level synthesized item directly.’

’But there’s a drawback... Spiritual Wisdom, or perhaps Spiritual Sense.’

’...’

’I’ve already tempered my Magical Power fifteen times. It won’t be long now,’ Su Qing silently calculated, thinking of his own Qi Cultivation Realm progress.

He was currently practicing the Five Immortals Demon God Skill to improve his physique and build a solid foundation.

His Body Refinement had not yet begun.

’Physique, Body Tempering,’ Su Qing thought to himself.

Countless First Realm Body Refining cultivation techniques appeared in his mind.

’I have to cultivate the Five Elements Reincarnation Skill.’

At present, Su Qing truly didn’t have any Foundation Establishment Techniques more powerful than this one.

Even now, Su Qing still didn’t dare to replicate this cultivation technique.

It was because this technique was a bit too powerful, and it couldn’t be synthesized.

But turning his Acupoints into Pocket Worlds was something Su Qing had to achieve through cultivation.

’The Life and Death Dao Foundation is useful, but if I were to self-destruct my Cultivation, the Dao Foundation would be gone too.’

Su Qing didn’t think much of the Life and Death Dao Foundation because it only activated upon being killed.

’If I’m captured, what use is it?’

He wasn’t so easy to kill now. He used to think the Life and Death Dao Foundation was divine.

But now, Su Qing felt that the God Demon Devouring Universe Map was the truly divine treasure.

As long as his soul was preserved, with his current abilities, he could revive himself.

...

"Pill Master Ye, the one with the lightest injuries has woken up," Xiaosong called, running over and interrupting Su Qing’s thoughts.

"Good, I’ll go have a look."

Saying he was going to "have a look" was just a pretense; he was really going to ask some questions.

He walked over to the bedside of the least-injured man.

"Pill Master."

"Yes. Two of your meridians are severed. To reconnect them, you’ll need a Vessel Continuation Pill, which is one of the most difficult Tier One elixirs to create. I don’t know how to refine it."

"I’m telling you this so you can make your own choice."

"If you truly want to have your meridians reconnected, you will have to repay the Moon God Palace for the cost of the Vessel Continuation Pill in Spirit Stones."

"I’m willing to do it!" the man said quickly.

Su Qing nodded. "Since that’s the case, I’ve made a note of it. I will bring it up when the time comes."

"Also, your other teammates will likely be sent back to a city under the Moon God Palace’s jurisdiction to recuperate."

The man’s face fell, but he still nodded. He knew that just being saved was already a blessing.
