My Synthesizer Has Talent

Chapter 242: Chapter 240: Crafting Energy Storage Spirit Crystals by Hand

With Tang Dan’s arrival, Su Qing felt much more relaxed.

Tang Dan had lived a long time and understood the ways of the world.

He could definitely hold his own in a conversation with a group of Golden Core and Nascent Soul cultivators.

—

Luo Xingya was currently discussing the matter of Spirit Medicines with a Golden Core Cultivator.

Although Luo Xingya could have been cultivating, she instead chose to negotiate with the Golden Core Cultivator to help her young master.

"Can’t you lower the price of the Star Flame Grass by 50,000 Spirit Stones? I’ll be buying ten stalks at once."

"Impossible. 1.31 million Spirit Stones for Tier Three Star Flame Grass is already a very low price. You must be joking, customer."

"My young master’s Spirit Medicines aren’t something he can just conjure up at will," Luo Xingya said firmly. This kind of haggling had become more and more common.

At first, these Cultivators were wary of her young master’s power.

But as they traded more, they started to bargain.

A few times, Su Qing had been willing to give them a slightly lower price.

But Luo Xingya was different. Besides, the price of the Spirit Medicines had been lowered again and again, and it had already reached the bottom line.

This was the most recent lowest price her young master had authorized.

However, she suddenly spotted a familiar person.

Tang Dan.

"Heh heh, young lady, long time no see," Tang Dan said with a laugh.

Then he looked at the Golden Core Cultivator to the side.

"My apologies. I want to help the young master, so I came here to learn a bit." Tang Dan had just arrived and didn’t understand anything yet.

So, the most important thing was to see what this was all about.

Luo Xingya nodded and continued her discussion about the price with the Golden Core Cultivator.

...

「Five days later.」

Finally, Su Qing finished building the auction hall.

Then he began decorating it nonstop.

...

After another two days, Su Qing finished his work and let out a breath.

"It’s finally done."

He summoned Xiaoqing. Xiaoqing was not in Su Qing’s Great World.

There was no danger on this island, so Su Qing usually let Xiaoqing roam freely.

...

"Master." Xiaoqing flew over.

"Help me do a calculation on Su Hongshang’s current situation."

’It has refreshed. The one-per-month guaranteed-accurate use.’

Xiaoqing began the Inference...

"Master, I’ve calculated it."

"Su Hongshang’s current situation is like walking on a knife’s edge—extremely dangerous, but controllable."

"...." Su Qing breathed a sigh of relief.

’Dangerous, but controllable.’

What he actually feared most was that the calculation would reveal his Dao Companion was gone.

’That would have been devastating.’

’As long as she’s still alive, that’s all that matters.’

Su Qing felt relieved. ’That wife of mine is just too reckless and greedy for small gains.’

’And look, she got herself into this mess.’

’A Small Secret Realm... what kind of good things could there be? Small Secret Realms have all become extremely dangerous nowadays.’

Su Qing stood up.

He headed for the Marketplace.

Inside, a massive shop stood—the one Su Qing ran himself.

At this moment, only Tang Dan was inside, discussing the price of Spirit Medicines with a Nascent Soul Realm Cultivator.

"Young Master."

"Elder Su," the Nascent Soul Realm Cultivator called out to Su Qing.

Su Qing nodded in response.

"Tang Dan, give me the list of deals that have already been finalized. You can continue your discussion."

"Yes, Young Master."

Tang Dan took a list from the counter.

On it were quite a few Tier Three and Tier Four Spirit Medicines.

If all the deals on it were completed, it would probably amount to a transaction of over two hundred million Spirit Stones.

Su Qing calmly read through it.

’These Spirit Medicines are easy to cultivate.’

After memorizing them,

he said to Tang Dan, "Go and inform these Cultivators that they can come to trade tomorrow."

With that, he walked out of the shop.

The Marketplace was still quiet.

This was normal.

It had only been developing for about a month.

Where there is trade, there is bound to be conflict.

Su Qing hadn’t perfected the rules and regulations for his Marketplace yet.

That’s why there were so few people.

With Song Zhining not yet back, Su Qing hadn’t had the chance to start on some of his construction plans.

’I still haven’t gotten the Void Nether Stone, so the Teleportation Array can’t be set up.’

Looking at his small island, Su Qing wore a gratified smile.

Su Qing found Luo Xingya. "Xingya."

Su Qing gave a Storage Ring to Luo Xingya. Inside were the Spirit Medicines for the next day’s trades; Su Qing had placed them all within it.

"Young Master." Luo Xingya accepted the Storage Ring.

"Give it to Tang Dan tomorrow. You know what to do, right?" Su Qing asked.

"I know. I will complete the task," Luo Xingya said earnestly. ’It’s such a simple task, I can definitely complete it.’

...

He needed to find his master to ask about a few things.

Su Qing found Ouyang Mingming’s house.

He knocked on the door.

KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK~

"Master, I’ve come to see you," Su Qing called out.

"Apprentice, what brings you to me?" Ouyang Mingming was wearing a thin red dress. Her face was bare of makeup, yet she possessed a peculiar allure.

Very captivating.

This was the effect of someone who had achieved Great Success in a Charm Skill.

’To be honest, compared to Su Hongshang, my master’s bewitching power is even greater.’

"I wanted to ask, does Master know anything about making Energy Storage Spirit Crystals?" Su Qing asked from the doorway.

Ouyang Mingming pulled Su Qing inside.

"Energy Storage Spirit Crystals... I’ve learned about them, but I’ve never actually made one myself."

"If you want the refining method, I can pass it on to you. But since I’ve never tried it, I don’t know how difficult it is."

"What, are you also trying to develop in the direction of the Zhengxuan Sect?" Ouyang Mingming knew just how busy Su Qing had been lately.

He had actually managed to build a massive auction hall in less than a month.

One could only imagine how hard Su Qing had been working.

"That’s right. The development path of the Zhengxuan Sect is how I want this island to develop."

"However, Cultivation will always be the top priority."

"Master, please, I ask that you teach me the method for making Energy Storage Spirit Crystals," Su Qing said.

He needed Energy Storage Spirit Crystals now, but figuring it out himself would take too much time.

Why wouldn’t Su Qing use a ready-made method if one was available?

"Alright, alright, I’ll pass it to you now," Ouyang Mingming said with a nod and a smile.

She walked up to Su Qing and tapped a finger on the spot between his eyebrows.

In an instant, Su Qing received the method for making Energy Storage Spirit Crystals.

[Method for making Energy Storage Spirit Crystals: A technique that combines Artifact Refining, runes, and Arrays.]

[Synthesizable]

"Thank you, Master," Su Qing said with a smile. This method would save him at least half a month’s time.

Moreover, this method for making Energy Storage Spirit Crystals could also be synthesized by the Synthesizer.

"There, satisfied? Do you also need the manufacturing methods for the Spiritual Ability Magical Artifacts from the Ten Thousand Tribulations Sacred Land?"

"Er..."

After hesitating for a moment, Su Qing smiled. "Why not... let me have a look at all of them?"

"I don’t have that many. I usually focus my research on things like Secret Techniques, so I don’t know much about Spiritual Ability Magical Artifacts."

"I do have the method for making a Spiritual Energy-powered Flying Magical Artifact."

"That’s all." Ouyang Mingming shrugged. She didn’t know much more either.

Nevertheless, she still passed the method for making the Spiritual Energy Flying Magical Artifact to Su Qing.

It was very disorganized.

It took Su Qing a while to sort it all out.

"Thank you, Master."

"I’ll head back to study this now," Su Qing said, clasping his hands.

"Go on, go on. You’re a busy man," Ouyang Mingming said with a smile, not trying to keep him.

Su Qing turned and left.

Then, he dove headfirst into researching the Energy Storage Spirit Crystal.

Although Su Qing had bought many, he had never made one himself.

「Two days later.」

[Energy Storage Spirit Crystal: Contains numerous Arrays, runes, and Artifact Refining techniques. Can naturally absorb Spiritual Qi to replenish the Crystal Stone. Can store 1 unit of Spiritual Qi.]

[Synthesizable]

It was a tiny thing, only about the size of two finger joints.

’One unit of Spiritual Qi,’ Su Qing mused, ’is probably one unit of Spiritual Qi solidified.’

This small thing was equivalent to the Spiritual Qi reserves of ten Ordinary Spirit Stones.

And it could even absorb Spiritual Qi from the outside world to replenish itself.

It took Su Qing two days of work to complete his first one.

"Another problem solved."

"Now I can install streetlights on the island." Su Qing didn’t have many ready-made things.

So he had no choice but to craft them from scratch.

The moment Su Qing stepped outside,

he heard Luo Xingya come running out. "Young Master."

"What is it?" Su Qing asked, seeing her hurried expression.

"I was waiting for you, Young Master. I was afraid of disturbing you."

"It’s from your fellow sect member. He asked me to give it to you." Luo Xingya pointed to the Void Nether Stone that had appeared on the ground nearby.

Su Qing raised an eyebrow. Song Zhining was back.

He had brought the Void Nether Stone to Su Qing.

"When did he get back?"

"Yesterday. He found me and asked me to give it to you."
