Night of the Broken Gliph

Chapter 99 (2)

Ha Yu Bing spent the entire night crying her eyes out. Moreover, all of them are just children, there was nothing they could do to help out. Thus, after pacing back and forth for some time, they fell asleep in the inns courtyard. 

Ha Yu Bing woke up at a later time. Despite getting slapped, she was still worried about Wong Kwan. Thus, she went back to the roomsilently without waking up her peers and accidentally overheard Chor Shing Chits words. She covered her mouth as tears trickled down her cheeks.

Ms Wong got so seriously injured for saving us? 

The worst thing that could happen to a cultivator would be a backlash by the gliph tattooed on ones chamber. 

Picking up gliphism was going against the heavens to start with, as tattooing gliph onto oneself is the process of adding on external power to ones body forcefully. 

Luckily, Wong Kwan was a Southerner, which used gentle gliphic plants as their gliphs ingredient. If she were to have a gliph tattooed on her with gliphic beast parts, it would have already swallowed her up now that she had no more energliph left to sustain the gliph. Wong Kwan would not even survive tonight. 

Following, she heard Chui Yims yelp and was dumbfounded. Why would they need to wake him up? 

Curious, she poked a hole in the window to see Chui Yim feeling Wong Kwans pulse. Ha Yu Bing barged into the room immediately. 

Chor Shing Chit immediately exerted his energliph upon sensing an intruder. Energliph that resembled a ferocious beast targeted Ha Yu Bing immediately, like a beast that found its prey. Under such a terrifying glare, Ha Yu Bing who was only in the single-gliphic state stood rooted to the ground. She even believed that Chor Shing Chit might take her life if she dared to fidget slightly. 

However, Chui Yim did not even spare Ha Yu Bing a look. He put all his heart into feeling Wong Kwans pulse. His amazing ability to focus was all thanks to the forgings he had done during his past life. It allowed him to block off any distractions and get double the results for half the effort. 

Fortunately, I woke up just in time! Hurry and get the herbs I need now. After a long time, he looked up to Chor Shing Chit and released Wong Kwans wrist. He named more than ten herbs within no time before adding on slowly, You should be able to find them in herb stores. Moreover, we need frozen weed, the older its age the better. Other than taking in medications, I might need to help restore her gliph as it is starting to fall apart. 

Chor Shing Chit said nothing more and went to collect herbs immediately. Of course, he trusted Chui Yim. 

With that, only Chui Yim, Ha Yu Bing, and Wong Kwan who was seriously injured were left in the room. Ha Yu Bing couldnt help but doubt seeing how a three-chambered glipher heeded Chui Yims words.

Can this bald boy really help to treat Ms Wong? 

On the other hand, Chui Yim calmly observed every small change taking place to Wong Kwan silently. 

Chor Shing Chit acted fast. He might still look emotionless, but Chui Yim could clearly feel that the currently unconscious Wong Kwan had a place in his heart. 

Boil them down into a bowl with three bowls of water. Chui Yim stuffed the herbs to Bak Wun, who had just returned from his breakfast.. 

Hey, kid Unhappiness was written all over his face. But seeing how tensed everyone in the room was, he went to do as told while cursing. 

Chui Yim waved his hands, signalling for Chor Shing Chit to come over. Continue to exert energliph to help her sustain the gliph on her wind chamber. 

Chor Shing Chit walked over and did so. In fact, he had been doing so for the entire night, or Wong Kwan might have been in the heavens by now. 

After some time, Bak Wun returned with a bowl of medications unwillingly. Chui Yim did not have the time to care about Bak Wun. He took over the bowl in a hurry and poured the contents into Wong Kwans mouth. Unlike normal medicine that was black or dark green in colour, this bowl was of an eerie dark blue.

All the Great Book Academy students were currently awake and watching Chui Yim treat their teacher. 

Ha Yu Bing who held her words for a long time could not take it anymore. Hey! Do you really know what you are doing or is it just an act! What is this? 

Chui Yim did not even spare Ha Yu Bing a glance as he continued pouring the medications into Wong Kwans mouth. 

Ha Yu Bing nearly blew her top after being disregarded again, but before she could flare up, Chor Shing Chits cold voice rang across her head. If I hear another word from you, Im going to chase all of you out. 

Ha Yu Bing glared back in response, anger filling her. As the young miss of the Ha Clan, even three-chambered or ten-gliphic cultivators have to greet her respectfully back at home. Yet this three-chambered cultivator was being so rude! However, she kept quiet as she knew the man in front of her would do as he said. 

Chui Yim emptied the contents into Wong Kwans mouth before reaching for her forehead and stomach. 

Ha Yu Bings eyes nearly fell out at the scene. Ms Wong is such a clean and pure lady, how could this random boy touch her? But she held her words in and only glared at Chui Yim when she saw Chor Shing Chit staring at her fiercely. 

Pff! 

Wong Kwan vomited a mouthful of weird-coloured liquida mixture of medicine and blood.

Theres not much time left for her, Chui Yim said without even batting an eyelid. The medication worked, and she did gain new energliph. But due to her injury, shes unable to practice the Self Winding Wheels of her energliph. Theres only one way now, but its risky. 

What is it? Chor Shing Chit looked at Chui Yim solemnly. 

Chui Yim pointed to Wong Kwans right hand. Shes a gliphist, therefore she only has a gliph tattooed in her wind chamber. But she has excess to both chambers on her arms, both of which are fully loaded with energliph. As a gliphist, she could control them without a gliph tattooed on these chambers. 

Her arm chambers are only there for her to store or activate energliph. 

You want to tattoo a gliph on her? Chor Shing Chit could roughly get Chui Yims idea. 

Chui Yim nodded. If we tattoo a gliph on any of her arm chambers, we can temporarily replace the exhaustion in her wind chamber. 

So whats the risk? 

As she is seriously injured and her wind chamber is almost completely dry despite having enough energliph in her arms chamber, her wind chamber would have fallen apart now if not for your energliph and my medication. We need somebody to continue exerting energliph into her to feed the needs of her wind chamber, but big brother Chor, your energliph is too fierce that it will affect me if you exert energliph into her during the process, Chui Yim answered. 

From a well-known clan and with his proficiency in gliphism, Chor Shing Chit understood Chui Yim immediately. Tattooing gliphs was a dangerous action, to begin with. 

Gliphist transformed energliph into gliphs and tattooed them onto gliphers using a mix of ingredients. The process of tattooing gliphs onto chambers was actually a collision of two different types of energliph. This was why the gliphist had to be extra careful to prevent the energliph backlash from the glipher. 

Hence, most gliphers would choose a gliphist more powerful than them to tattoo the gliph onto them in case of an accident. The gliphist would then be able to use his extremely strong energliph to prevent a tragedy. 

Having a gliphist who had yet to break through to the single-gliphic state like Chui Yim tattoo a gliph on a three-chambered glipher like Chor Shing Chit was unprecedented.

So, we can only rely on medication? Chor Shing Chit asked after a long pause. 

Chui Yim nodded. That is what makes it risky. 

At that moment, Ha Yu Bing raised her hands. I cultivate the same style as Ms Wong, we can be considered to be of the same origin. 

Chui Yim was taken aback after hearing her. Thats one good idea, he replied after a short pause. 

Chui Yim fished out a fruit of his thumb size from his bag and ground it with the remaining frozen grass. Unlike the time he tattooed gliph for Chor Shing Chit, he had collected numerous gliphic plants back at the Engraved Mountain Range. There was no need for him to risk tattooing gliphs with minerals again. 

Ha Yu Bing inserted her feeble energliph into Wong Kwans wind chamber. She might only be a single-gliphic gliphist, but having broken through to the state at the age of sixteen, she had enough energliph to spare. Im going to make you pay for her life if this fails. She sent an icy cold glare at Chui Yim. 

Dont disturb me. Chui Yim overlooked her. Save your energy to last longer. 

He took a deep breath and raised his right index finger. Energliph lit up on his fingertip, throwing Ha Yu Bing and her peers off their feet. 

Chui Yim had never used his energliph in front of them, so none of them knew what state he was in and assumed him to be at least in the single-gliphic state. But now, seeing that energliph disappeared as soon as it was activated, they realised that he had not even broken through to the single-gliphic state! 

And he can draw gliphs now? This is only what legendary talents could manage to do! 

Chui Yim dipped his finger into the thick powder that he ground and got to work. 

Unlike the process of tattooing a gliph onto a glipher, Chui Yim only aimed to save Wong Kwan, thus he did not choose any particularly powerful or difficult gliph, but the simple Light Wind. Firstly, although Snow Melted Ocean was a superior gliph, it wasnt as violent as Chor Shing Chits Spiral Dragon. Secondly, Light Wind was a wind type gliph, same as the Snowy Wind style. The Light Wind gliph would not result in backlash as they belonged to the same origins. Chui Yim had truly thought about it thoroughly! 

Just like what Chor Shing Chit mentioned back in basic gliphism class, Light Wind is a basic and common gliphwhich is why many gliphers without backgrounds would select this gliph to be tattooed on them. 

Light Wind was mostly tattooed on foot chambers, as it helped one  move or perform skills at a faster speed. 

Even though Chui Yim wasnt picky about his choice of gliphs, he had intentionally chose to tattoo Light Wind onto the back of Wong Kwans palms. With its effect of increasing speed, the gliphs could help her turn energliph into gliphs at a faster pace in the future, which was a bonus for her.
