My Synthesizer Has Talent

Chapter 410 - 408: Hitting a Bottleneck

Sponsored

Gradually, calm returned to the Taichu Daoist Palace.

Even the members of the Black Abyss Human Clan waiting outside for Su Qing to appear were growing impatient.

After waiting outside for so long, the subordinates from the Black Abyss Human Clan had grown restless.

"Ten Taichu Eras have already passed."

"Have you confirmed that fellow has been hiding in his own world this whole time?"

"Yes, my lord."

A member of the Black Abyss Human Clan reported to Liu Du.

"Everyone, pull back. This plan isn’t working."

"In three Taichu Eras, it will be time for the Priests to honor the Black Abyss Mother."

"All of you, go back and prepare."

"I’ll figure something out myself when the time comes."

Hatred flickered in Liu Du’s eyes.

Normally, his younger brother would have already returned to the Black Abyss to help him prepare for the offerings to the Black Abyss Mother.

But a human had unexpectedly appeared and caused his brother’s downfall. He couldn’t stand the thought of that person getting away scot-free.

’Su Qing. This time, you will die!’

...

...

Host: Su Qing

Realm: Seed Dao Perfection [Daoist Initial Cultivation Method: Seed Dao]

[Cosmic Immortal Transformation Visualization Map: Entry Level (89/500)]

...

"More than ten years. This is the only time I’ve been in seclusion for so long."

Su Qing awoke to find he had hit a bottleneck.

This wasn’t something that could be solved by his Cultivation Technique operating on its own.

The Daoist Initial Cultivation Method was now useless to him.

Su Qing had to find his own way to make the Dao Seed sprout. Only then could he break through to the Daoist Initial Realm.

’How do I make the seed sprout?’

Su Qing was thoroughly perplexed.

He was completely lost.

He left his own world and returned to the Taichu Book Land.

"Taichu Cultivation Method."

Su Qing once again called for books on the Taichu Cultivation Method.

His predecessors had already walked this path, and Su Qing had no desire to grope his way forward blindly.

It would be a pointless endeavor.

...

’So I need to temper my Dao Seed. Use its power to stimulate its latent potential.’

’Does this mean I need to fight?’

Tempering his power.

Given the speed at which Su Qing had advanced, combat was likely the fastest way to temper his power.

Otherwise, Su Qing would have to spend a vast amount of time on it.

’Zhu Yuan is a good partner and a good opponent.’

’But how to find Zhu Yuan... that’s the problem.’

Su Qing gave a wry smile.

He got up and headed for the Taichu Dao Platform.

The place was bustling with activity. It seemed some kind of event was taking place.

A large crowd had gathered in one area.

"Come on, come on! A battle between Yu Hu of the Taichu Daoist Palace and Bai Di of the Immortal Palace! An unprecedented match!"

"The odds are one-to-one! Come and take a look!"

It was that guy who had set up the betting pool before.

When Su Qing had fought the fellow from the Black Abyss, this man had been running the bets.

This time, Su Qing couldn’t help but smile when he saw a familiar face.

’That was almost too easy. *Hidden Dragon Like the Abyss* is really something,’ Su Qing thought.

He had spotted someone placing a bet.

It was Zhu Yuan.

Su Qing walked over.

"Zhu Yuan," Su Qing greeted her.

Zhu Yuan saw him too. "Oh, it’s you, Su Qing. Are you here to place a bet?"

"No." Su Qing shook his head.

With a sincere expression, Su Qing said, "Would you be free to spar sometime? I seem to have hit a bottleneck."

"Spar? Of course. I’ve heard the Human Race progresses very quickly. It seems it’s been thirteen Taichu Eras since we last met. I wonder if you’ve grown to my level yet."

"We’ll have to wait and see." Su Qing was even more delighted to hear Zhu Yuan agree.

This meant he had a powerful opponent who could help him improve.

At the same time, perhaps his opponent could improve as well.

"This is a spar, and spars are usually open for viewing."

"Watch with me. You can see how strong my friend is."

"Of course, Zhu Yuan," Su Qing agreed with a smile.

He stood shoulder-to-shoulder with Zhu Yuan, waiting for the spar to begin.

Soon, a spherical image appeared above the Taichu Dao Platform.

The image showed the two combatants inside.

"The Taichu Dao Platform is a multi-dimensional arena. You’re really lucky to be able to watch this match from here."

"It’s been a while since I fought Bai Di. Last time, I couldn’t beat him. I wonder if I can this time."

As Zhu Yuan explained from the side, the two figures in the image began to clash.

It was a display of Spatial Power.

Su Qing’s attention was instantly captivated.

Zhu Yuan fell silent as well, her eyes fixed on the battle above.

Those without Spatial Power would have no idea how they were fighting.

But the more Su Qing watched, the more astonished he became.

Especially when he saw the application of space that came later.

Su Qing was stunned.

The white-haired figure eventually executed a spatial technique that even Su Qing couldn’t comprehend.

The Spatial Power of his opponent passed right through his body.

And it was an attack from an opponent of equal strength.

After that, Yu Hu, the guide, was actually defeated.

He was ejected from the platform.

"So strong," Su Qing murmured.

It was a technique Su Qing had never seen before.

"That Bai Di... his Spatial Power is just too strong."

"Has he broken through to the Daoist Initial Realm?" Zhu Yuan, standing beside him, was also shaken.

Yu Hu appeared, shaking Bai Di’s hand with a nod. "Long time no see. It seems my progress hasn’t been as fast as yours."

"Hahaha, you flatter me, Yu Hu." Bai Di laughed.

"What was that final power you used?"

"A Daoist Technique I developed myself. It’s a secret." Bai Di chuckled and said no more.

Yu Hu smiled wryly. "To think that among us, my Talent is the worst."

"You surpassed me long ago, and a while back, I found I could no longer defeat Zhu Yuan either."

"Is that so? That Candle Dragon? Her Talent is really that formidable?" Bai Di was surprised.

"Hey, hey, hey! What’s this ’that Candle Dragon’ nonsense? Can’t you be a little more civilized and call me Zhu Yuan?"

Zhu Yuan led Su Qing over to the two of them.

Many people in the crowd turned to look at the four of them.

"This is the person Yu Hu guided this Taichu Era. He apparently defeated a member of the Black Abyss Human Clan who was at Dao Path 12 Steps."

"His name is Su Qing, and he possesses the Power of Time."

"He’s a good guy," Zhu Yuan introduced with a smile.

For the first time, Yu Hu spoke with a serious tone. "Hello, I’m Yu Hu. To be acknowledged by Zhu Yuan, your Talent must be very strong."

"Hello, I’m Su Qing," Su Qing replied with a smile.

"I’m Bai Di. You seem to be a Cultivator from the Immortal Palace too. I can feel the power of your Dao Seed; it has a dense Spatial Power," Bai Di also said with a smile, leaning on Su Qing’s shoulder.

He was clearly the type to get familiar quickly.

"Bai Di, your Talent is so high. Of the three of us, you were the youngest when you entered the Taichu Daoist Palace. Now, I’m not even sure I could beat you," Zhu Yuan said with a laugh, clapping Bai Di on the shoulder.

This was genuine praise for Bai Di.

Su Qing could feel it.

"Alright, the battle’s over. I’ve been pondering a Divine Technique for a while, and it still needs some improvement. Zhu Yuan, how about a match with me?"

"Of course! I couldn’t ask for more," Zhu Yuan said excitedly, the fire of battle already rising in her eyes.

"Perfect. Afterward, I need to have a match with Su Qing here. He said he’s hit a bottleneck."

"Oh? Is that so? After our battle, I can stick around and watch."

"Let’s go!"

On the Taichu Dao Platform, Zhu Yuan and Bai Di were already prepared.

From a distance, Wealthy Zhang saw his chance.

He immediately began shouting, "Zhu Yuan versus Bai Di! Odds are one-to-one! It doesn’t matter if you just lost, there’s a new bet to be made!"

"I, Wealthy Zhang, guarantee you’ll get every Taichu Coin you win!"
