My Synthesizer Has Talent

Chapter 380: Chapter 378: Purifying Soul and Vibration

"That’s right."

"I’ve recovered some memories."

"But they’re all just fragments. In those memories... I endured so much suffering. Then, it seems I became a rare immortal in the ancestral land. The path of Immortal Cultivation is so difficult, and every agonizing memory is branded into my mind."

Su Shang’s mood was somber.

"I only have one memory of you—a single image of me leaning in your arms!"

"So, who exactly are you to me?"

Su Shang was deeply confused.

According to the memory in her mind, she had been in the arms of this so-called brother, and she seemed to have been very happy.

"Su Shang, who am I to you? That’s a good question."

"As we are now, if you call me brother, I’ll treat you as my sister."

"Didn’t you say it yourself? You’re not her anymore."

"And I can’t make her become you."

"Nor can I make you become her. All of that is in the past."

Su Qing sighed. ’Perhaps this is what it means to grow up,’ he thought.

Loved ones pass away, only to be reborn as unfamiliar children.

Friends perish, leaving only fragmented memories behind.

"Let’s sit down and talk."

Su Qing glanced at the cloud, pulled a piece of it toward him, and sat down on the Cloud Beast.

Su Shang also sat to the side, her face somber. The smile she had before seeing Su Qing had vanished.

"Your soul must have been incomplete to begin with."

"I’m talking about before your reincarnation."

"In the historical texts and documents I’ve read from the Jianmu Omniscience Institute..."

"When a body is broken and a soul is fragmented, they undergo a soul completion process."

"The completed soul is whole, but it loses a vast amount of memories. So, they decided to have it reincarnate."

"In the field of soul research, your All-Knowing Institute has managed to achieve reincarnation, which is quite impressive."

"And lost memories are difficult to recover."

"Reincarnation is... also good, in a way. And that’s how you came to be." Su Qing paused, unsure of how to properly describe the process.

"I know that," Su Shang said softly. ’It would be impossible for me not to know, not after reading so many books.’

Su Qing remained calm.

"The ancestral land you speak of, you know how it was destroyed, right?"

Su Shang nodded, "It was the Greed Realm."

"Since you know that..."

"Then you should know that for everyone you would call an ancestor, it was an absolutely devastating blow—a cataclysm."

"Of the people who escaped from there, many died..."

"...and many were wounded."

Su Qing’s tone became heavy.

"We should be grateful you don’t remember being devoured by the insects."

"Maybe I did," Su Shang replied meekly. "But those memories seem to vanish, forgotten almost immediately."

The thought of his companions—more than one of them—being devoured by the Greed Realm’s insects made Su Qing’s stomach turn.

Su Qing’s own spirits began to sink.

However, he quickly composed himself.

Putting on a slight smile, he said to Su Shang, "Now that you’ve awakened your Dao Path, what you make of your future is up to you."

"I’m going to go check on the other one first."

Su Qing’s smile was radiant.

But Su Shang could see the sadness it stirred within him.

That sorrow moved Su Shang.

She suddenly had a realization.

’Perhaps the one in the most pain isn’t the person who can’t remember, like me.’

’It’s the one who remembers everything, from beginning to end.’

But when she looked up, the person before her—the brother she had just mentioned—was already gone.

Su Qing arrived at Liu Ling’er’s home.

It seemed Liu Ling’er wasn’t home.

’Not home?’

’Could she be at school?’

Su Qing sent out his spiritual sense to probe.

And she was, indeed, at school.

She even seemed to have a few good friends.

’Seems like she’s doing well.’

’At least, she looks happy.’

Seeing this, Su Qing decided not to visit her in person.

’This one is much happier than Su Shang.’

She has the love of her parents, the affection of her friends.

’What more could she need?’

’And as expected, she must have inherited some part of Liu Linlin’s soul. Her intelligence is surely not lacking.’

After watching for a moment, Su Qing made his way to the library.

Inside the library.

Qing Yang had just opened a book to read when he saw Su Qing appear before him.

"Elder Su, what brings you here?" Qing Yang asked, seeming a bit more composed than before.

He glanced at the expressionless Su Qing with a smile.

Su Qing sat down.

He spoke softly, "Does your Taoist Sect have a Technique for guiding souls to the afterlife?"

"Guiding souls to the afterlife?"

"You don’t know how, Elder Su?"

"It’s just a matter of cleansing the soul, allowing it to return to its purest state."

"In the Spirit Realm, this is a common practice. Even the Soul Stealing Technique basically operates on the same principle."

"Except, of course, for a few powerful Divine Techniques."

And that was exactly what Su Qing was looking for—a powerful Divine Technique.

"I’m looking for a Divine Technique."

"Or a magic that’s on par with one."

Qing Yang fell silent for a moment, then said, "Actually, among the magical techniques I gave you before, Elder Su..."

"...there was one that was modified from a fragmented Immortal Technique."

"It’s the well-known Immortal Crossing Technique. The name sounds impressive, but it’s really just a low-level magic modified from the Life Crossing Immortal Technique. Its effects are quite weak."

"It’s practically useless, except on some Low Tier Cultivators or ordinary creatures."

"According to legend, the original Immortal Technique could cleanse a pure soul, washing away even its fate."

"Only when the soul reincarnates would its fate begin anew."

Qing Yang explained, "But that Immortal Technique has been lost to time. All that’s left is the Immortal Crossing Technique that every cultivator knows."

’So it was that one, huh?’

Su Qing nodded. "Thank you."

"I can see you’ve stepped onto the Dao Path. How does it feel?"

Qing Yang smiled. "It’s alright, I suppose. It doesn’t feel as potent as the Dao Principle I comprehended. I’m not sure how powerful this Dao Path will become in the future."

"Perhaps."

Su Qing left the library. Within the Jianmu Omniscience Institute, his Escape Technique was undetectable by anyone except Jianmu itself.

[Immortal Crossing Technique: A Tier One Upper Grade magic that can cleanse souls and guide the departed.]

’This one was so inconspicuous.’

’To think it was a modified, fragmented version of an Immortal Technique.’

If Qing Yang hadn’t told him, Su Qing would have never known.

’I just don’t know if this Immortal Crossing Technique is actually useful.’

Su Qing took a moment to examine it, planning to synthesize it via Standardization.

Replication was trivial.

[Synthesis Successful: Standardization Triggered]

[First Layer Immortal Crossing Technique: ...can cleanse souls and guide the departed (Magical Power cost is halved)]

"..."

’Actually, that’s not bad. Let’s continue.’

Su Qing knew he wasn’t guaranteed to get the Standardization he wanted, but he decided to synthesize it anyway. ’What if it produces a good result?’

(Soul Traction)

(Soul cleansing effectiveness doubled)

(Purifying Soul)

(Range doubled)

"..."

Su Qing sighed.

’These are all the Standardizations I wanted.’

"Time to synthesize all of them."

[Synthesis Successful: Evolution Triggered]

[Unknown Technique: Uses Magical Power as a conduit. Properties: (Purifying Soul), (Soul Traction), (Soul cleansing effectiveness increased 10-fold), (Range expanded 10-fold), (Magical Power consumption reduced 10-fold)]

’So, Evolution can actually be triggered.’

’In that case, let’s just synthesize it a few more times.’

This magic had already become a Standardized ability.

And since all three Standardizations could be affected by Evolution, well then, he wasn’t going to hold back.

Su Qing immediately synthesized it five more times.

[Unknown Technique: ...Uses Magical Power as a conduit. Properties: (Purifying Soul), (Soul Traction), (Soul cleansing effectiveness increased 1,000,000-fold), (Range expanded 1,000,000-fold), (Magical Power consumption reduced 1,000,000-fold)]

’Five times. The cost is still acceptable.’

’Next, let’s try synthesizing it with Immortal Transformation.’

[Synthesis Successful: Immortal Transformation Triggered]

[Purifying Soul and Cleansing Fate: An Immortal Daoist Technique. Use Magical Power to cleanse a soul and clear away some of its present-life karma. (Purifying Soul)...]

"’Clear away some of its present-life karma?’" Su Qing was puzzled.

But for now,

He had used Evolution and Immortal Transformation many times.

So this technique should be incredibly powerful.

"’Extract.’"
