Night of the Broken Gliph

Chapter 277



Chapter 277

There was a visibly great movement in the urgent Phantom Monkey’s eyes. It was the Phantom Monkey’s mental attack! 


Bzz──


Despite receiving the mental attack, Chui Yim remained composed as Heaven’s Flame devoured the mental attack in no time. He fished out a small cylinder as the Phantom Monkey was still in shock. 


Beep




Chui Yim panted. He had read about the Phantom Monkey in books and knew that its mental attack was deadly; it was even known as the glipher killer since most gliphers had weaker mental states, unlike gliphist who had to train their mental state to control gliph strings. 


However, mental attacks were something Chui Yim never had to care about. The Heaven’s Flame in his body still remained a mystery, but after the incident with the four-chambered Yellow Spring Lady before her death, he was sure that the Heaven’s Flame could deal with the one-chambered Phantom Monkey’s metal attack. If it could deal with a four-chambered necrocultivator’s mental attack, it could deal with this. 


In contrast, the monkey’s phantom-like speed and immense strength were what Chui Yim feared more. But luckily, it was too anxious, which led to its death. Chui Yim didn’t use the Thousand Mechanism Arrow earlier—if he missed, he’d need time to reload, which he didn’t have any of. 


But it was all over now; Chui Yim was the one who survived while the Phantom Monkey died. josei


Chui Yim kept the Phantom Monkey’s corpse and immediately left. It was valuable, and he didn’t want to attract any attention. This thought made him caress the Phantom Monkey’s corpse, which suddenly emitted a grey smoke. The smoke took the form of a Phantom Monkey, even its bloody red eyes of it! It looked just like the Phantom Monkey with the form of smoke! 




Woo Nim and Cheuk Kwun were still on the cloud. 


“That Northen knife boy is dead.” Cheuk Kwun raised a brow suddenly. 


“It was by the Metallic Blood War Gate Tower Master’s disciple.” Woo Nim nodded. 


“Not wrong, he spoke rudely.” Cheuk Kwun shrugged.  


“We still need to explain.” Woo Nim nodded. Very soon, silence fell again. 


After some time, Cheuk Kwun opened his eyes, slightly aghast. “An unlucky child has met a Phantom Monkey.” 


“Is it going to be an opportunity for him?” Woo Nim pondered. She had a slow reaction, and only after a while did she realise that this kid was the boy Uncle Wun asked her to look after. This thought made her turn pale as she stood up, trembling. 


“Woo Nim, you know the rules. We can’t help.” Cheuk Kwun reminded her lazily, and she sat down slowly, her eyes not leaving Chui Yim and Phantom Monkey. 


The Phantom Monkey was a weird gliphic beast that had no natural habitat. There were sightings of them in both the South and North, but elites were always looking for them due to their high price. 


Phantom Monkeys had great strength, and most beings of the same rank were no match for it. Their only predators were humans. But a one-chambered Phantom Monkey could still crush a one-chambered glipher! 


Now, Chui Yim had killed it with the Thousand Mechanism Arrow. 


“Oh, what an interesting item.” Cheuk Kwun gasped in curiosity. In front of Woo Nim, he wasn’t as serious as he was in front of the disciples. “It might only work against one-chambered or single-graphic cultivators, but you don’t need energliph to use it.” 


Woo Nim heaved a sigh of relief. However, the next second, they saw the grey smoke enter Chui Yim’s body, knocking him unconscious. 


“What the hell was that?” Woo Nim aside, even Cheuk Kwun was taken aback. Even he, the Cloud Forest Library’s guardian hadn’t seen such a thing before. 


“I’m going to take a look.” Woo Nim couldn’t sit still any longer. 




Just as Chui Yim was knocked unconscious, gliphic beasts attracted by the Phantom Monkey’s blood came over. The first to reach were a few breeze wolves that lived in packs. They were one-chambered gliphic beasts with terrifying speed and the ability to launch breeze blades. The worst thing was that they lived in packs; a large pack could consist of up to a thousand wolves. Imagine a thousand breeze wolves launching breeze blades at the same time. Even three-chambered gliphers would have to avoid them! 


Those that appeared first were sentinel breeze wolfs. They rushed over excitedly after smelling Chui Yim and the monkey’s corpse. But before they could reach him, a scorching hot aura appeared out of the blue. Gliph strings crossed each other in the air, congealing from someone’s fingertips. A pair of wings flew across the air, leaving two traces of fire that distorted the air. 


The breeze wolves were killed silently. 


The petite girl appeared on the branch again and approached Chui Yim while trampling over the dried leaves. She frowned as she mumbled. “What a piece of trash…” Even so, she kept the Phantom Monkey’s corpse while carrying Chui Yim on her back. 


As someone who exercised daily, Chui Yim wasn’t small, larger than the girl. Even so, she carried him easily. The dried leaves cracked under her feet as she walked away. 


She arrived at a huge tree and threw him on the ground. Chui Yim landed on the ground with his eyes shut tightly as if in deep pain. Mung Si frowned and sat next to him after some time to meditate.
