When 'God' Decides To Start Over-Chapter 739 - 297 Mute_3

After asking, I learned that they each went to different Trial Gates, and no one knows when they’ll return.

"Lao Qian, what exactly is the Sword Casting Workshop in the Land of the Sword Soul?" Li Xiu took the opportunity to ask Lao Qian about the Land of the Sword Soul.

"I don’t know." Lao Qian shook his head and said, "Those Sword Casting Workshops seem like the handiwork of the Demon Kingdom, but there’s no trace or writing of the Demon Kingdom there, so nobody knows if those workshops are really something they built. People previously were sent to study them, but no conclusions were ever drawn."

"According to those researchers, the materials for forging Sword Embryos might be drawn up by the machines from underground, and these materials are very unstable. As a result, the forged Sword Embryos vary in quality. For this reason, many Sword Embryos were collected specifically to study them, hoping they could be used as materials for Demon Armor. However, the material properties of the Sword Embryos were found to be quite peculiar and unable to transmit inactive Demonic Light, so Demon Armor couldn’t use those materials either, and the matter was left unresolved."

"Unable to transmit inactive Demonic Light means that only the Demonic Light of living Magic Spirits can be transmitted through the Sword Embryos?" Li Xiu asked.

"That’s probably what it means." Lao Qian nodded.

"That’s really strange." Li Xiu recounted the events of encountering a storm and the mute.

Lao Qian was a bit surprised upon hearing this: "I’ve been guarding the Land of the Sword Soul for three years and have never seen it rain there. I’ve seen many Magic Spirits, but I’ve never encountered the kind you mentioned."

"It seems the storm is indeed related to that Magic Spirit." Li Xiu pondered.

Lao Qian couldn’t make sense of it either, and Li Xiu had no choice but to let it go.

"How are you doing now?" Li Xiu asked.

"I still haven’t figured it out." Lao Qian shook his head.

"Take your time, no rush." Li Xiu took a shower, had a good night’s sleep, and the next morning, after Sha Chu returned, he gave her those Talent Gemstones, Demon Spirit Rings, and Skill Rings to exchange them for resources.

Li Xiu himself went to Sun Tianlei to buy some of the Synthetic Diamonds he had bought last time and fed them to the Synthetic Capsule.

To Li Xiu’s surprise, the Synthetic Capsule didn’t consume the Synthetic Diamonds; instead, it combined two Synthetic Diamonds into one larger diamond and then spit it out again.

Curiously, Li Xiu tried several more times and discovered that Synthetic Diamonds could be infinitely synthesized, with small diamonds continuing to combine into larger ones.

However, there was a certain amount of consumption during synthesis, with about a quarter of the gemstones being consumed during the synthesis process.

Li Xiu also tried synthesizing some other types of gemstones, and similarly, there was no restriction. Natural gemstones like sapphires and rubies could all be synthesized, though the consumption was slightly higher than that of Synthetic Diamonds, roughly about a third.

This kind of synthesis wasn’t very meaningful for regular gemstones.

Small gemstones worked just as well, so there was no need to synthesize larger ones.

However, in the process of synthesis, the Synthetic Capsule leveled up from grade E to grade D. Apart from the level up, no new Talent Skills were awakened.

"I wonder if synthesizing Demon Spirit Gemstones would have any special effects." Li Xiu planned to try some Demon Spirit Gemstones in the future.

After tidying up his things, Li Xiu returned to the Sword Soul Gate, and after three consecutive attempts, he randomly got a pass to enter the Land of the Sword Soul.

The Land of the Sword Soul hadn’t changed much since he left. However, there were more Magic Spirits gathered outside the workshop.

Li Xiu took the Fire Lotus Sword and continued to slay Magic Spirits to fully concentrate its Sword Vein.

Day after day of Magic Spirit hunting led the Sword Vein of the Fire Lotus Sword to slowly concentrate one by one.

A month passed quickly, and because he hadn’t encountered a Light Base Magic Spirit, the concentration of the Fire Lotus Sword’s Sword Vein was not fast. It had only reached twenty lines, still four lines away from completion.

He also obtained some Sword Embryos, but never encountered a Sword Vein like that of a two-handed great sword.

Since there seemed to be no more Light Base Magic Spirits nearby, Li Xiu had no choice but to take the Fire Lotus Sword further out.

"The Fire Lotus Sword has slain over a dozen Super Spirits, yet not a single Super Spirit Gemstone has appeared. Could they all have been devoured by it?" Li Xiu wondered to himself as he watched the Fire Lotus Sword slay another Super Spirit, leaving nothing behind.

Given the Fire Lotus Sword’s solitary nature, this was entirely possible. Otherwise, it wouldn’t make sense for over a dozen Super Spirits to be slain in two months without a single Super Spirit Gemstone.

If it was indeed that solitary, Li Xiu considered taking matters into his own hands when encountering Super Spirits in the future.

Boom!

Just as Li Xiu was thinking this, a thunderclap roared across the clear sky. Li Xiu looked up to see dark clouds covering the sky densely.

Daylight dimmed as bolts of lightning darted through the clouds, and thunder rumbled incessantly. As the dense clouds descended, it was obvious another storm was brewing.

"Here it comes again!" Li Xiu quickly summoned the Masked Emperor, twisted the throttle to its maximum, and dashed forward.

Li Xiu’s entire body was encased in a golden riding suit and helmet, merging with the golden motorcycle. Like a golden lightning bolt, he sped across the plain.

The clouds descended lower and lower as continuous explosions of thunder resounded in the sky.

Having ventured too far, Li Xiu couldn’t make it back to the workshop in time before the sky unleashed a torrential downpour.

"I haven’t even secured a high-grade Sword Embryo, and it’s coming again?" The downpour drenched Li Xiu and the Masked Emperor, though it didn’t hurt, everything around him was a misty haze, leaving him to rely on his sense of direction to continue forward.

A massive lightning bolt like an electric dragon ripped across the sky, illuminating the darkened heavens. Staring ahead in the lightning’s light, Li Xiu thought he glimpsed a terrifying silhouette emerging from the clouds.
