Night of the Broken Gliph

Chapter 515

“Junior Brothers, Master gifted you a treasure for protection right before your journey. Remember to use it well,” Wat Suen said at the right time.

The duo immediately fished out the mirror and metallic ball they just received respectively from their master.

“The treasures are normally customized personally by Master, and it’s up to you both to discover their magical capabilities,” Sung Tsz Hin explained. “Alright, that’s all for today. Start packing and get ready to leave tomorrow morning.”

Chui Yim was utterly speechless. Can’t I have a break? I just woke up from a coma two days ago!

At night, Chui Yim came to Kam Chin Kee’s residence.

Kam Chin Kee’s residence was a huge contrast compared to Chui Yim’s metallic residence. Kam Chin Kee’s residence had a unique design that didn’t take the form of the South’s tall buildings with smooth roofs, nor the short Northern houses with sloped roofs.

It took an irregular shape, looking just like it was made out of countless different cubes.

However, Chui Yim was aware that hundreds of mechanisms were hidden in this ordinary-looking house. According to Kam Chin Kee, this gave him a sense of security and reminded him of the Wandering Son’s Lake residence and Evergreen Palace where he used to reside.

Chui Yim along with the other members of Cloud Palace memorised all the hidden mechanisms, but none of them dared to enter unless there was a need as carelessness might activate those weird mechanisms…

“What the hell is with that mirror of yours?” Chui Yim looked at Kam Chin Kee’s mirror curiously. As an elite blacksmith even in today’s world and the creator of weapon refining, he was a veteran of forging. On the other hand, Kam Chin Kee had studied mechanisms for three lives.

Yet they were unable to figure out what was going on with the mirror.

“Since we cultivate gliphism… why don’t we insert energliph?” Chui Yim tossed the mirror back to Kam Chin Kee, who nodded his head and shut his eyes to do so.

The style Kam Chin Kee cultivated was the Ever-Changing Formless Skill from his previous life, and it was best at controlling. He was able to control energliph into tiny needles to insert into the mirror.

Indeed, they saw changes taking place in the mirror, and the first change was to the eight divination trigrams surrounding the mirror.

Kam Chin Kee inserted a huge amount of energliph into the mirror seeing this reaction. The gliph patterns lit up gradually from the outer range to the inner range, and when it reached the centre of the mirror, Kam Chin Kee’s eyes lit up!

“This…” Kam Chin Kee was shocked by the situation; his mental state improved significantly out of the blue! He and Chui Yim both cultivated gliphism, but he had a stronger mental state and senses compared to the other, and now, his mental state increased by three times!

“What a mystical feeling…” This mirror bore the same effects as Chui Yim’s mysterious black cushion that only took effect when he sat on it, and there was obviously no limit to it!

“Well? How is it?” Chui Yim bombarded him with questions curiously.

“It's tough for me to explain, try it yourself.” Kam Chin Kee passed him the mirror.

Chui Yim took the mirror and inserted energliph into it.

Boom!

Chui Yim's flame-like energliph bounced back at him immediately, but luckily he wasn’t injured because of his strong body, and then the mirror dropped to the ground, rolling off.

“It seems that only you are able to use it.” Chui Yim frowned and turned to the metallic ball in his hands.

“So… that means that only I'm able to use this?”

“The mirror boosted my mental state by… about three times. To put it simply, my mental state is beyond the single-gliphic state, and I can draw more than thirty gliph strings in the air.”

They cultivated gliphism, so their mental state was equivalent to a single-gliphic gliphist and their body to two-chambered gliphers right now. Kam Chin Kee spent four years to get his physical body to this state, and as long as he wished, he could reach the ten-gliphic state, but he did not do so as he cultivated gliphism and his mental state had to be on par with his physical state.

Under the mirror's boost, he was now able to produce thirty gliph strings in the air, the same as a ten-gliphic gliphist.

“Give your metallic ball a test and see what it does!”

Chui Yim nodded. He was filled with curiosity about what boost this metal ball would give him after hearing from Kam Chin Kee. He was a blacksmith, and he naturally had great curiosity and hunger for treasures. The metal ball turned red gradually as he inserted energliph, looking just like a bomb.

Chui Yim continued fearlessly as he knew that the Seven-Star Elder would not play a trick on him, therefore he sped up inserting energliph.

Clang clang clang clang…

When the entire ball became entirely red, explosive sounds could be heard. The fist-like metal ball became metallic armour!

Chui Yim's jaw dropped to the ground, while Kam Chin Kee's eyes popped out. This was a special mechanism, and the great master Kam Chin Kee did not manage to identify it?

The armour looked like a vest that protected his chest, back, and abdomen. But Chui Yim hesitated as there were tiny needles in the armour… I would be pierced by them if I wore this armour!

As if trying to get the upper hand back in the area he was best in, Kam Chin Kee spoke. “Look carefully; this is not actual metal, but your energliph!”

“Energliph?”

Chui Yim walked up, staring at the armour hard, and indeed, he saw that the red needles were just illusions that felt familiar to him… it was his own energliph!
