Night of the Broken Gliph

Chapter 450

A hint of surprise washed over Fok Fungs frosty face.

Fok Fung moved rapidly, and his Sword Tomb body that was ranked first on the Earth Rank was no doubt powerful. Unlike Lam Zaa, Fok Fung was born with his special body form, which allowed him to make use of the energy as and when he liked. He was just unable to control it in the past.

But after breaking through to the one-chambered state, he gained an understanding of the Sword Tomb body and created two gliphilities, Stance and Unsheathed, by putting his swordsmanship and energliph together. Currently, the invisible sword energy was breaking through the sharp wind around Fok Fung. Rather than affecting Fok Fungs performance, it increased his speed.

But what he expected least was for Man Yee Ho and Yeung Tin Hun to be as fast as him.

Yeung Tin Hun was the most eye-catching of all. The fog around his feet made him resemble an immortal riding the clouds, compared to Man Yee Ho who looked like he was simply just running.  Even so, Man Yee Ho was going at the same speed as Fok Fung.

Fok Fung took a glance at him, and with just a thought, his surrounding sword energy was automatically activated.

Buzz buzz buzz

However, it only took a second for Man Yee Ho to form a huge shield with his gliph strings to block the attack. It seemed that Man Yee Ho was prepared to counter a sneak attack.

Pff pff pff pff...

Yet the invisible sword energy surrounding Fok Fung was so powerful that not only could it be used to attack, but to defend too. The weapons made of gliph strings shattered into ashes within no time

How dare you counterattack!? Fok Fung blew his top. He slowed down slightly and reached for his sword.

At that instant, an invisible suction formed from the sword, and the surrounding mist was slightly warped before being swallowed by the sword.

This was a grade three sword, the Soul Destroying Sword; the same sword that did not have a special function when he went against Lee Bak during the inter-school exchange. Unhappy with the situation, Fok Fung went back and tried getting used to this sword, whereupon he came up with making use of the thousand-year-old soul-devouring trees characteristics to take in the surrounding heaven and earth energy and infuse it into his attack.

At the same time, Fok Fungs eyes lit up.

He pulled out his sword and activated Stance and Unsheathed all at once, sending a mighty attack at Man Yee Ho!

As the saying goes, a single sword can destroy any formation.

However, Man Yee Ho seemed unaffected, as if nothing in the world, even the sky collapsing, could make him lose his composure.

His emotionless expression was brought forward from his past life. Man Yee Ho chose to stay lowkey and silent, but this front didnt represent who he really was. Ever since his past life, he was a martial arts maniac. But sadly, being in a world of deadly mechanics that could kill any soldiers easily, martial arts slowly disappeared from that world. But Man Yee Ho continued, not because he could predict the future, but because of passion.

Thus it did not take him long to adjust to this world of survival of the fittest, and facing such a dangerous attack, he did not have the slightest fear, only excitement and happiness.

Its great to be in this world!

He raised his hands, revealing his slender fingers.

Gliphists always took longer to break through their innate chamber; Chui Yim and Kam Chin Kee, who consumed huge amounts of g-food, were exceptions. For example, Man Yee Hos master, Man Ching Hung, who only broke through the innate chamber at the age of twenty-two. She was the best example of slow but steady.

When Man Ching Hung looked back, she realised that what helped her reach the thousand-gliphic state was her experience during the twenty-two years before she broke through. Therefore, she did not feed Man Yee Ho elixirs, pills, or g-food to help with cultivation like what other famous sects and clans would do and let him grow as a cultivator with his own hard work instead.

Thus, Man Yee Ho could not draw gliphs in the air right now. His capability was a result of extraordinary training.

His fingers danced in the air, forming numerous different types of weapons. There were blades, spears, swords, rods, and even shields. Blades were even separated into different types; machetes, short-hilted broadswords, kukris swords like longswords, stilettos, and many more

This was Man Yee Hos personal gliph that everyone was curious about. He had already created his personal gliph even before breaking through the innate chamber.

It was common knowledge that personal gliphs were difficult to create as the gliphist had to connect with heaven and earth and seek approval for the gliph to work. Therefore, most gliphists only started creating gliphs after reaching the hundred-gliphic state before making their personal gliph.

As the gliphists cultivation increased, they would have a greater understanding of gliphs and would be able to create gliphs that made more sense and could gain approval much more easily. This was just like how upper primary students could easily get upper primary questions correct. This was the case for most gliphists.

If a gliphist wished to create their personal gliph before even breaking through, it was no different from solving an upper primary question as a lower primary student tough. However, those that could do so would definitely succeed in the future as each and every one of them was an elite amongst elites, set to become an influential figure of the world!

Kong Yau, Mung Si, and Mute were gliphists who created their personal gliph after breaking through the innate chamber, and they were known to the world. It was as rare as a hen tooth to find someone like Man Yee Ho, able to create their personal gliph before breaking through!

A shield made of gliph strings blocked the powerful sword's energy. Around the shield were about ten different types of weapons that overlapped and intertwined. There was a chilly aura as if the gliph strings were forming a tomb made of weapons!

The sharp, scary sword energy collided with this chilly gliph. It was a collision of gliphility and gliph!

Buzz

The extreme sword intent surged as if it could pierce through anything and met with the chilly gliph that seemed to be the remains of weapons from a battlefield thousands of years ago.
