Night of the Broken Gliph

Chapter 506

Siu Fu’s eyes flickered as his face turned white as a sheet of paper, not because of the ferocious Netherspectre, but for some other reason.

“Brother Chui, I’m not good at straight-up fights, but I know prediction and deduction skills.

“Please buy me some time and I’ll calculate where our vitality lies.”

Chui Yim nodded, it wasn’t like he had another choice. “I’ll have to depend on you!” He defended Siu Fu behind him.

“How funny it is to watch ants struggle on their deathbeds.” “Chui Sang” sneered and placed the Iron Lotus Flower in front of his chest. The Iron Lotus Flower emitted an evil aura that descended on the teenagers as a giant, inky claw!

Chui Yim took a deep breath. He could see the seven flaming crescent moons in his mind.

Sung Tsz Hin had told him that it was a seed of the Heavenly Realm.

Chui Yim couldn’t link the flame and the crescent moons together, but it did not hinder his understanding of the flames. He had already fully comprehended the Seven Crescent Moons and turned it into his strength, in the form of a gliphility.

Arching, Chui Yim placed his right hand on his waist to gather strength while his blazing hair danced in the air.

Sensing Chui Yim’s energy, Siu Fu’s expression changed drastically as he looked at Chui Yim with myriad complex emotions. He hated it; not Chui Yim, but the energy, same as the one he felt from the corpse Hung Zhin bestowed to Steelhead.

As the giant claw descended, Chui Yim launched a punch. It was the energliph route of Bloody War Strike along with his understanding towards the flame.

A burning crescent moon came into the picture.

“Flowing July Flame.”

Boom!

The burning crescent moon collided with the giant claw, its intimidating energy wave was unlike anything that could be produced by a one-chambered cultivator!

“Impossible!” Netherspectre’s vertical pupils shook in fear. The crescent moon’s aura had him shaking in fear as if it would burn everything in the world, and the blood energy movement was so strong that it almost solidified.

He’s just a one-chambered glipher!? What has the world become after a thousand years? Why did I come across such a monster just as I was about to break free!?

“Pfft!”

Chui Yim vomited blood. He was worn out, but determination still filled his eyes even when the crescent moon dispersed along with the black claw.

“I told you that nobody can prevent my rebirth!” “Chui Sang” was outraged, and the shadow behind him enlarged once again, sending another trace into Chui Sang’s body so secretly that even Chui Yim did not catch it.

However, Siu Fu did. He had been staring in that direction since the start, waiting, deducing, just for this moment!

His face turned pale as he flicked his finger and sent a negative-energy-filled shadow towards a certain area.

Tsk!

A soft noise was heard, as if a kite or puppet was cut from its strings. Once again, disbelief took over “Chui Sang’s” face, and the shadow’s movement decreased at the same time.

He turned to Siu Fu, unable to believe what just happened.

For context, Netherspectre was a being of darkness and had out-of-this-world mental strength. Its physical strength now was less than one per cent of its mental strength, thus, not even a five-chambered glipher could sense it. But this one-chambered kid did.

Netherspectre was thunderstruck, the impact even greater than Chui Yim attacking him up front!

As pale as the moon, Siu Fu seemed tired out. The deduction was mentally draining for him, and now that they were fighting for survival, he did not care about hiding his identity or style as he allowed black smoke to surround him.

Unlike Chui Sang’s aura when he was alive, Siu Fu’s aura was less evil and more transparent.

“Brother Chui! I have temporarily broken its connection with its host, leaving it greatly weakened. Kill it right now!”

“Alright!” Chui Yim nodded. Siu Fu whispered something to him and then yelled. “I’ll fight for a chance for Brother Chui.”

With that, Siu Fu turned into a black arrow and went for “Chui Sang.”

“Even without my connection, it’s simple to kill both of you kids!” “Chui Sang” laughed, enraged. He was only able to exert the force of a three-chambered state currently, but it knew it would win the teenagers because of cultivation state differences. Be it their control of energliph, mental state, or combat skills, they were no match for Netherspectre!

“Chui Sang” smiled watching Siu Fu come for him as a claw reached out for Siu Fu from the Iron Lotus Flower in his hands!

Pfft… The shadow descended, and “Chui Sang” was stunned. Siu Fu disappeared like a bubble in front of it, and when it took a closer look, it realised that Siu Fu had always been behind Chui Yim. This was just a secret skill of necrocultivation – duplication.

Netherspectre was tricked by them!

“Right now, Brother Chui!”

Without hesitation, Chui Yim’s hair ignited again, leaving another crack in the ground, going for the demon as a red shadow!

“Just in time, you who overestimate your capabilities!” “Chui Sang” sneered. Even though it could not regenerate energy, killing them was still a piece of cake. However, it realised that Chui Yim’s aim was not it, but the milky flame that was about to disperse in the air.

Siu Fu was similarly nervous. He had made seventeen deductions to know that the milky white flame was the only way for them to survive. Everything Siu Fu did was just to let Chui Yim get this flame.

As soon as Chui Yim grabbed hold of it, he went back to Siu Fu at lightning speed, still staring at “Chui Sang” cautiously.

“Chui Sang” was shocked, but when he realised what happened, he was… overjoyed.

“Hahahahah! Hahaha!” “Chui Sang” opened his arms; he was currently over the moon. “Do you know what that flame is? It’s that monster Ka Yi’s spirit flame, and without it, I would not have been trapped here for a thousand years!”

Boom!

The shadow behind him enlarged at a great speed, nearly breaking through the roof. “Chui Sang” stood in front of it, the altar already gone.

Chui Yim and Siu Fu moved backwards in a hurry, standing amongst the nine red stone pillars.

“I really have to thank the both of you.” “Chui Sang” looked at them seriously. “Without the both of you, it would’ve been a hassle for me to put that out.”

However, Chui Yim did not hear him as the flame flowed into his body when he grabbed it with his right hand. Within the blink of an eye, it reached Chui Yim’s glabella. Numerous scenes appeared in front of Chui Yim, forcing themselves into the teen’s mind.
