Night of the Broken Gliph

Chapter 528

Yuen Tin and Yuen Yau’s special status was why they dared to sneak near the temple to eavesdrop on Mute and Chui Yim. Other ordinary disciples dared not go near the temple except during morning lessons or additional lessons from Mute.

Yuen Tin was furious. He was a talented teenager and knew he would be the next abbot of Apex Temple.

Yuen Yau was similarly outstanding, but he was a gliphist with a weak body; the criteria to cultivate the Invincible Diamond Body was to have a strong body or the cultivator could not withstand the style.

So, originally, the Invincible Diamond Body was meant to be passed to Yuen Tin in the future. Therefore, it was as if Yuen Tin’s sky had fallen when he knew that the style was given to Chui Yim.

If it was anybody else, he or she would be fuming with anger to learn that something supposedly already theirs was snatched away.

“So?” Chui Yim asked after Yuen Tin introduced himself. He sounded rude, but if any other Cloud Palace members were present, they would know how patient Chui Yim was being currently. With his character, he would normally have already sent a punch over instead of wasting his saliva.

But to Yuen Tin, who didn’t know Chui Yim well, Chui Yim’s words only further fueled his anger. In his perspective, Chui Yim was just like a thief who broke into his house, stole his stuff openly, and then asked him who he was when caught.

Chui Yim’s attitude made the teenage monk go berserk.

“I have long heard about Cloud Palace, please guide Yuen Tin from Apex Temple true!”

“Senior Brother!” Badly shocked, Yuen Yau pulled his senior brother’s robe.

Chui Yim squinted his eyes; he was getting impatient with the teenager. “I’ll give you a chance and pretend I didn’t hear you.”

Yuen Tin pulled himself hard out of Yuen Yau’s grip. The gliphist was no match for him. “I’ve long heard that the seventh teacher is a strong-willed and straightforward man. Are you saying that because you know that you’re no match for me?” Yuen Tin sneered. 

“Seventh Teacher might be from Cloud Palace but you’re four years younger than me. I will take an attack from Seventh Teacher first to be fair.”

Yuen Tin opened his robe and stood in front of Chui Yim in a horse stance, just like a wall. He was a fair-skinned boy, and after successfully picking up bronze skin, he was able to keep and use the style as he wished. There were no changes to his appearance, but his skin was as tough as bronze.

Yuen Tin was confident that he would reach the steel bones state successfully and handle great pressure when he reached the three-chambered state!

Thus, he let Chui Yim take the first move to show his capability. This was his plan – to take the opponent’s attack and destroy his confidence so that Chui Yim would return the style. Victory was not the only thing Yuen Tin wanted; he wanted his item back!

Yuen Yau stood at the back with an ugly expression. To his surprise, Chui Yim did not rage as expected and even stared at Yuen Tin weirdly. “Are you sure?”

Yuen Tin said no more and stared at Chui Yim calmly, not affected by the energliph wind.

“Alright.” Chui Yim nodded and took a few steps back. Just then, the little monks and members of the temples who were already observing that this was going to take place crowded around to cheer for Yuen Tin.

Chui Yim took a few steps forward slowly and turned back, staring at Yuen Tin as if he were an idiot.

This made Yuen Tin flare up, but he wanted to prove his capability. His fair skin was as tough as bronze, and let alone a two-chambered cultivator, he was even confident in taking attacks from three-chambered or ten-gliphic cultivators.

Chui Yim took a deep breath and placed his right palm down next to his waist, five of his fingers pointing to the ground.

He didn’t make it into a punch this time around as he was not planning to make use of the Flowing July Flame.

Honestly, he was not as furious as he thought he would be because he guessed the reason behind Yuen Tin’s anger. If he was Yuen Tin, he would be even more furious. Thus, he did not plan to take the other’s life, only to defeat a person who was here to challenge Cloud Palace.

Whoosh…

A milky white flame formed on his right hand and spread all over his palm. A violent energy was felt from his palm; this was the flame that the great monk Ka Yi had accumulated over many years, and the aura was enough to make Yuen Yau’s face drop. Yuen Tin too; with his higher state, he could identify that this energy movement was from the flame, not Chui Yim.

Chui Yim was like a boy carrying a huge weapon. The weapon would only work if the carrier could make good use of it.

Chui Yim turned his right hand, and now his five fingers were pointing at the sky instead. It was like reversing day and night, as well as the landscape.

Yet, the terrifying energy was kept well in Chui Yim’s palms. “What style is this!?” Yuen Tin’s face changed.

This energy wave is as powerful as an attack from a three-chambered cultivator! How can this be!?

Chui Yim’s expression did not change, yet he was already sweating buckets. This was his first time performing this style ever since he was given the legacy.

But now he realised he had thought too lightly of this style; it was too difficult for him even in his two-chambered state!

Calmly, Chui Yim sent his right palm out as if it was the seas, mountains, heavens, and earth.

Yes, he sent a mountain out with just one attack.

Yuen Tin stood unmoved, not because he was composed, but because he was so afraid that he couldn’t move and only waited for death to take him.

Huff…

A fingernail-sized milky white essence flew past his cheeks and landed on a wall made of mud.

Boom boom boom! The flame exploded just like thunder had struck down to the world! When the explosive sound halted, the dust was nowhere to be seen, leaving only a burnt, black hole of two meters in width.

Yuen Yau was speechless. He looked at Chui Yim like the other was a monster. This is a gliphility from a two-chambered cultivator?! What the heck, this is too scary! Yuen Tin’s face was as white as a piece of paper as his legs trembled subconsciously.

If I blocked that technique with my body… I would have become powder!

Just then, Mute finally arrived, looking at Chui Yim with a complicated look. The attack was so powerful, so he would definitely be affected. With the gliphility plus the Flower Garland Sutra, Mute roughly knew what was going on.
