Night of the Broken Gliph

Chapter 183

Necrocultivators cultivated uniquely. Normal cultivators absorbed the energy of heaven and earth, turning it into energliph through cultivation, but necrocultivators absorbed the deadly energy of the world instead. This made their energliph more corrosive and aggressive than usual, which was why necrocultivators were stronger than ordinary cultivators. 

The Black Promise Tower had formations designed specially for necrocultivators to absorb the deadly energy of the world; it was the best place for necrocultivators to cultivate. 

Deadly energy swarmed into Siu Fus body as the black energy surrounded him. Soon, Siu Fus body trembled. 

The great elder wasnt surprised by this. He waved his sleeves, which shattered Siu Fus black robes and revealed his skinny chest. Black gas flowed beneath the skin on his chest as if there was a black snake. It was a disgusting sight. 

However, instead of feeling disgusted, the necrocultivators were watching curiously with anticipation. Every necrocultivators breakthrough was different. The amount of black gas, known as Devilish Dragons, released represented the cultivators talent.

The sixth Devilish Dragon. Indeed our sacred son. 

It was said that the great elders assistant Ling Fei only had six Devilish Dragons, right? Hes already in the fifth level, just a step away from the sixth. 

Indeed powerful Eh? 

As the commotion was rippling through the crowd, Siu Fu had a painful expression as another string of black gas appeared within his chest.  

The seventh!  

Oh my god  

But before they finished, Siu Fus eyes shot open, revealing a pair of dark, scary pupils.  

Boom!  

Two streaks of black gas instantly surrounded him!  

Nine dragons!  

Thats the limit! He  

Hes really our sacred son!  

The necrocultivators below the stage kneeled on one knee subconsciously while looking at Siu Fu respectfully as ingredients flew out of the great elders palm hands. The great elder had his expression hidden as his energliph took the form of countless strings, mixing with the ingredients before landing on Siu Fus chest. 

A huge palm-shaped gliph formed on his chest. Its fingers covered his chest with an eye in the middle. The pain on Siu Fus face disappeared when the gliph formed, his expression turning cold as he looked down at the necrocultivators kneeling before him. 

It was difficult to cultivate as a necrocultivator because their innate chamber must be the heart chamber. Only by having the heart chamber as the first chamber could a necrocultivator control all the other gliphs, robbed from dead cultivators that would be tattooed later on.

The gliph tattooed on Siu Fus heart chamber was called the Deadly Palm gliph. It meant that life and death were in the necrocultivators hand, and he could even control ones who had passed on. 

Honourable sacred son, according to tradition, after breaking through your innate chamber, you can name someone you wish to kill. Of course, you can save this chance and use it on your next breakthrough.  

Being our sacred son, unlike others, youll be given a chance whenever you break through to get the entire tribe to kill someone until you reach the four-chambered state.  

Siu Fu remained silent. He had read numerous books in the Cultivation Style Pavilion in the past few months and had learnt about their practices and traditions. He also knew that most necrocultivators would choose to keep this right until they reached their second chamber to kill a powerful glipher or gliphist who they could then control. 

I have decided.  

This was the first time Siu Fu spoke in front of the crowd. He sounded childish but firm, like he was born to be a leader. In fact, he was a leader of many powerful beings before he reincarnated into this world. 

 Law Sum. 

Yes, Your Honourable sacred son! Law Sum jumped up on hearing his name, trying his best to hide his excitement, internally sighing. Finally, my tough days are up! How lucky would I be to work under the legendary Nine Devilish Dragon, Bloodstained Hills Sacred Icon, our Sacred Son! With the resources Ill get, I might finally reach the sixth level in the future! 

This thought made Law Sum wear an extremely respectful expression like he would serve Siu Fu with his life.

Honourable Sacred Son, the unworthy Law Sum is here. Ill do my best to complete the mission Your Honourable Self gives me.  

The surrounding necrocultivators watched this green with envy. They had already expected this; Law Sum was viewed highly by the sacred son since he was the person to bring him back, but things were happening faster than they expected. Still, that was the legendary Nine Devilish Dragon Sacred Son, after all! 

Law Sum. 

Your Honourable sacred son, please speak your wishes! Law Sum will definitely complete the mission you give to the best of his ability! Law Sum replied loudly. 

Siu Fu had a complex expression on hearing him, but soon, he understood Law Sums misunderstanding and glared at him coldly. I meant that the person I want dead is Law Sum! 

His words shocked the crowd. All of them turned to Law Sum, whose eyes were bulging in disbelief. The respect on his face fused with fear instantly, turning his expression into a funny one to look at. 

Heed the Honourable sacred sons order. 

A voice rang out, breaking the silence. Ling Fei stepped forward slowly with three black illusions next to him. These were dead cultivators tattooed into his Deaths Victim gliph.  

Why! Why?! Sacred Son! Realising what he meant, Law Sum looked at Siu Fu in despair and fury. He was in the Black Promise Tower, surrounded by necrocultivators. There was no way for him to escape, and he knew that he would die today. Law Sum can die, but I hope to at least know the reason!  

Why do I need a reason to kill? Siu Fu answered emotionlessly, not even looking down at him. 

Whats with all this nonsense!  

Kill!  

Take his life for the Honourable sacred son!  

Numerous necrocultivators surrounded him. Law Sum didnt even retaliate as he knew it would only make his death more torturous. Right until he died, he stared at Siu Fu with a confused expression. He was the one who brought Siu Fu here, and yet, Siu Fu was the one to take his life.  

But to be exact, Law Sum was the one that took his own life.  

As he slowly turned into a puddle of black liquid, his fellow necrocultivators started mumbling a spell. This was the passing on chant that necrocultivators recited when one of their members passed on. They didnt wish for him to reach heaven, rather hoping that their friends would have a smoother journey down to hell. 

Memories flooded Siu Fus mind as he watched Law Sum die.  

Little Mouse, behave I dont have any breast milk for you, so heres the milk of a gliphic beast it was so powerful that it nearly ate me! 

Little Mouse! I said to cultivate, why are you playing with such a huge arrow?! Cultivation is the path to success! 

Little Mouse, did you hunt a deer? Let me tell you, venison is the most delicious food in the world Bastard! Stealing the drumstick again

Little Mouse, look at that beauty! Ill get you a similarly gorgeous woman as your wife in the future!  

Little Mouse, I dont have a wife or son, so Ill take you as my son! Grow up strong, so I can retire peacefully. 

Little Mouse  

Little Mouse  

Siu Fu raised his head slightly, a single tear escaping his eyes, albeit hidden from all the necrocultivators.  

Do you see this? Ive taken revenge for you.
