"Huh?"
"Alright, in that case, I’ll just sell ten," Su Qing said after a mont of thought.
He pretended to take the Great Replenishing Pills from his pocket.
They didn’t seem to mind that the pills had co from Su Qing’s hand.
"As for that last Great Replenishing Pill, consider it a gift."
Su Qing didn’t mind.
Physician Lin took the ten Great Replenishing Pills from Su Qing.
After looking at each one, he smiled and said, "Lord Su, please wait a mont. I’ll go get the money."
Su Qing nodded and began to wait.
Xiao Naiqin, however, said, "Lord Su, please co over here and have a seat?"
Su Qing shook his head and said, "No need. It should be quick. I’m fine standing here for a bit."
Only a short while passed before the Immortal Master Lin ca back out, carrying a box.
"Lord Su, I hope you’ll forgive us. Our shop is rather small, and we really don’t have many Spirit Stones on hand. Will five Spirit Stones do?"
’Spirit Stones?’
Su Qing was suddenly reminded of the few white stones inside his Storage Ring.
As Su Qing looked over, Physician Lin opened the box in his hands.
Inside were precisely five white stones.
They were brimming with Spiritual Qi.
Seeing this, Su Qing nodded. "Alright, this will do."
"Where in Zhengxuan City are there more places that use Spirit Stones for trade?"
Su Qing asked again.
Physician Lin shook his head upon hearing this. "Lord Su, within a thousand-mile radius of our Zhengxuan City, even the common folk don’t know about these high-end trading markets. I’m just a mortal."
After hearing this, Su Qing had no choice but to drop the matter. He tucked the five Spirit Stones into his pocket, but in reality, he placed them in his Storage Ring.
He waved to them and said, "In that case, I won’t disturb you any longer."
"Take care, Lord Su."
"Take care, Lord Su!" (x3)
The first was from Physician Lin; the latter three were from the apothecaries.
Su Qing walked out the door.
He had originally just wanted to get so money, but he ended up with Spirit Stones instead.
But in Zhengxuan City, the price of Spirit Stones seed to be extrely high.
By his calculations, it was equivalent to trading two fifty-year-old ginsengs for a single Spirit Stone, and even then, they were items with a price but no market.
Both ginseng and Spirit Stones were rare items.
Perhaps in the Immortal Cultivation World, ginseng wasn’t so scarce.
After all, the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi was so abundant.
But at most, it was only effective for mortals.
For the current Su Qing, a single Great Replenishing Pill had no effect on him at all.
At best, it could stave off hunger.
’This is so annoying. Should I just take out a Spirit Stone and buy a bunch of random things to synthesize?’
After so thought, Su Qing decided it was actually a good idea.
Su Qing found a random bookstore to read and get a better sense of the situation. Fortunately, most bookstores in Zhengxuan City let people read for free.
Perhaps it was because the productivity here was highly developed.
...
「In Xu Ningying’s house.」
"I’m finally back."
Su Qing dragged a huge box inside.
Furthermore, a flying van similar to Xu Ningying’s followed behind, delivering the goods.
And that wasn’t all. The deliveries kept coming one after another, even in the middle of the night.
That’s what you get when the purchasing power of one of Su Qing’s Spirit Stones is so imnse.
He had bought nothing but daggers—the most common Iron Daggers.
With just one Spirit Stone, he had bought nearly one hundred thousand of them.
It was all to grind his Synthesis Level and Talent.
To minimize losses, Su Qing synthesized them two at a ti.
[Synthesis Failed]
[Synthesis Failed]
[Synthesis Failed]
...
"Sothing’s not right, not right at all!"
Su Qing frowned. He had already tried synthesizing dozens of tis, so how could he not have succeeded even once?
His Synthesis Level was already Level Thirteen, which should have forcibly increased his base success rate by 13%.
’And not a single success in dozens of tries?’
’Let’s keep going.’
Su Qing refused to believe it. Although it still increased his synthesis experience, he felt that failing to produce a single item was a pointless waste.
After another few dozen attempts...
[Synthesis Failed]
Looking at the words on the panel, Su Qing felt like he was starting to see a pattern.
’Maybe, just maybe, the success rate only increases when you synthesize nine items at once.’
Su Qing tried putting nine daggers in.
[Synthesis Failed]
[Synthesis Successful: Ordinary Iron Dagger]
[Synthesis Successful: Ordinary Iron Dagger]
The original daggers were classified as "Crude Iron Daggers" on Su Qing’s panel, but after synthesis, they beca "Ordinary Iron Daggers."
Looking at the items he could successfully synthesize, Su Qing couldn’t help but hesitate.
This was because if he went for minimum loss, his one hundred thousand daggers could be converted into fifty thousand experience points, which was probably enough to raise his Synthesis Level to Level 30.
But synthesizing nine into one ant he would only be able to level up a few tis before he couldn’t anymore.
"Dammit! When will I ever escape this poverty!"
Su Qing thought about how few Spirit Stones he had in his Storage Ring.
He just had to pick the optimal choice. The synthesized daggers might trigger Demonization, Mutated, or sothing similar, but Su Qing felt that could be worried about later.
In the end, the optimal choice was to treat it all as a loss and just synthesize.
[Synthesis Failed]
[Synthesis Failed]
...
For three consecutive days, Su Qing successfully consud all one hundred thousand Iron Daggers.
Host: Su Qing
...
Synthesis Level 34 (421/3500) [Synthesis Success Rate 34%, Mutated 1%, Evolution 10%, Divinization 1%, Demonization 1%] [Selectable Talent 21]
"Finally got it all synthesized. I’m exhausted, *phew*~"
Su Qing glanced at the synthesis panel and smiled with satisfaction.
Then he found his room and went to sleep.
He slept soundly until dawn.
Only then did Su Qing wake up. He looked at the Selectable Talent points before him.
Twenty-one points. That’s right, twenty-one.
Su Qing looked at his Synthesis Talent points, knowing that leveling up the Synthesizer would only get harder from here on out.
So, without hesitation, he put a point into [Standardization] and [Dinsionalization].
Synthesis Level 34 (421/3500)
[Synthesis Success Rate 34%, Mutated 1%, Evolution 10%, Divinization 1%, Demonization 1%, Standardization 1%, Dinsionalization 1%] [Selectable Talent 11]
He lost ten points in an instant, and Su Qing felt a little pained.
After all, ten points of his "wealth" had just vanished.
"I still have 11 points. Let’s see what else is suitable for ."
[Immortal Transformation: 1% synthesis probability. Causes the synthesized item to possess a special tenfold Immortal Transformation effect on top of the base synthesized item.]
[Immortal Transformation: Each 1% of synthesis probability requires 3 Selectable Talent points.]
Among the many synthesis options, Su Qing’s eyes were drawn to this one. If it triggered, it would be extrely beneficial for his cultivation.
So, he selected it.
Evolution only cost 1 point, while Immortal Transformation cost three, but its effect was just too powerful.
[Selectable Talent 8]
Su Qing continued to look for other Synthesis Talents to spend his remaining points on.
"This is so hard to choose, dammit." Su Qing stared at the dazzling list of talents, his head starting to spin.
There were simply too many, and quite a few of the talents even ca with negative effects.
And Su Qing did not like that one bit.
"My head’s about to explode. What should I do?" The more Su Qing looked, the more conflicted he beca; every option seed more appealing than the last.
And so.
Su Qing chose another Synthesis Talent.
[Spiritualization: 1% synthesis probability. Causes the synthesized item to awaken a spirit (spirit type is random, spirit strength is random).]
[Spiritualization: Each 1% of synthesis probability requires 3 Selectable Talent points.]
"This is the one."
Su Qing hesitated again and again.
He selected the 1% increase for Spiritualization.
As for the last five talent points, Su Qing put them directly into his Evolution Talent.
In the end, Su Qing’s synthesis panel looked like this:
—
...
Synthesis Level 34 (421/3500)
[Synthesis Success Rate 34%, Mutated 1%, Evolution 15%, Divinization 1%, Demonization 1%, Immortal Transformation 1%, Spiritualization 1%, Standardization 1%, Dinsionalization 1%]
