The portion of the Ming Sum One-Pot was massive, but the hungry ghosts gobbled down the first three layers in no time!
Chui Yim picked up a piece of the pinkish-white meat drenched in aromatic sauce left behind after steaming the first three layers of ingredients for a long period of time. The succulent piece melted in his mouth instantly, allowing him to taste the layered flavours as well as the sweet taste of flame-tailed chicken and seamouth. It was a fatty piece yet not saturated. At the same time, Chui Yim felt a gush of warmth in his diaphragm.
“Yummy!”
“Slow down, Chui boy! Leave some for the rest of us…” Kam Chin Kee said anxiously and stuffed a piece of snow rose pork in his mouth. He even shut his eyes to taste the meat better!
“Top-notch cooking… huh?” Suddenly, Kam Chin Kee looked uncomfortable as redness crept onto his pale face slowly. Chui Yim, who was busy eating, did not notice the abnormal situation.
Yeung Tin Hun and Man Yee Ho were enjoying the meal fully. Just like Kam Chin Kee, Man Yee Ho experienced the same situation; face flushing red unnaturally like a drunkard after consuming snow rose pork!
“What’s going on?” Yeung Tin Hun, who managed to stay clear-headed, wondered.
Man Yee Ho was feeling dizzy. Currently, his world was spinning, but he tried to keep his balance. On the other hand, Kam Chin Kee was in a worse state; he took a few steps but swayed from side to side. “This…”
“What’s… what’s happening?” Lam Ming Sum was dumbfounded.
“What’s with them?” Chui Yim looked up with a piece of meat in his mouth at a loss while Kan Hang remained composed.“What’s wrong?” Yeung Chun did not even spare them a look. “Nothing’s wrong, just indigestion.”
“Indigestion?” Kan Hang suddenly gained realization
“Oh right!” Lam Ming Sum spoke. “Flame-tailed chicken supplements fire-attributed cultivation while seamouth boosts strength, and snow rose pig is used to increase the speed of energliph cultivation. It is a direct increase to energliph…”
Yeung Chun nodded in agreement. With his age, he obviously had more knowledge about g-food compared to Lam Ming Sum and was more experienced compared to the creative Lam Ming Sum with great potential. “The essence left behind from steaming flame-tailed chicken and seamouth greatly stimulates the effects of snow rose pig. But don’t worry, Ming Sum, your dish is fine, it’s just too much for the weaker kids. Look at how strong Little Brother Chui is, this is beneficial to him with no side effects… Eh? Little Brother Kam is going to break through?”
Yes, energliph was surging from Kam Chin Kee; it was a sign of breaking through! Ever since he moved over to the residence, he had been eating many precious g-food meals from his earnings buying and selling statues and Chui Yim’s gliph weapons. After reuniting with Lam Ming Sum, the girl came over regularly to make them delicious meals.
Being fed with many precious g-food meals, Kam Chin Kee finally broke through his innate wind chamber officially!
“What?” Chui Yim jumped up and swallowed the piece of meat in his mouth before dragging Kam Chin Kee into his workshop.
Bang. Chui Yim sat Kam Chin Kee on his special cushion after shutting the door tight. The Divine Bracelet of Five Elements lit up, and a bottle of elixir landed in his palms. Chui Yim poured the contents out and stuffed it into Kam Chin Kee’s mouth without hesitation; this was the calming elixir that Ping Chi gave him back at Southary.
This elixir allowed a cultivator to remain clear-headed and helped largely during a glipher’s breakthrough, especially before the three-chambered state. Afterwards, when their bodies produced unending life force, cultivators would no longer lose consciousness when breaking through.
Thus, the calming elixir was extremely important for those below the three-chambered state as the timing of a cultivator’s breakthrough was unpredictable, and losing consciousness during such a critical timing was deadly. Because of this, many well-known clans would prepare calming elixirs for their disciples.
This elixir that Chui Yim fed Kam Chin Kee was made by Ping Chi personally, and it was greatly effective. There was huge demand but no supply for it.
Kam Chin Kee instantly got better after taking the elixir. Despite the raging energliph, no energliph seeped out and he became stable.
“Please guard me.”
Chui Yim nodded and stood at the door. The both of them had discussed earlier that when Kam Chin Kee broke through, he would be the one to tattoo a gliph for himself.
Kam Chin Kee took a deep breath to focus.
The cushion Ping Chi gave Chui Yim as well as the calming elixir were a great help at this moment. Kam Chin Kee opened his collar to reveal his buff upper body.
He was slender compared to Chui Yim, but he was in an amazing shape that was beyond Chui Yim’s imagination. I did not expect him to train his body in such a detailed manner.
Kam Chin Kee was currently drawing gliphs in the air.
Chui Yim dared not say that Kam Chin Kee was the first person in the world to achieve drawing gliphs in the air without breaking through, but at least he had never read about such a situation in the books.
The gliph slowly took form, and it was one that Chui Yim had never seen before. Yet it was not Kam Chin Kee’s creation, but a gliph he saw back at the Sacred Scripture Pavilion in the Evergreen Palace.
Putting aside the difference between the North and South, just looking at the South, it was common for organisations and institutions to have private collections of gliphs and gliphilities, and nobody, not even the Great Book Academy, dared say that they had the full collection. The Great Book Academy only said they had the greatest collection in the South.
The place with the greatest possibility of a full collection was Cloud Forest, but nobody had the chance to witness it personally.
Every collection most likely contained the secrets of that organisation. Similarly, when a powerful member of theirs passed on, they would leave their gliphs for their organisation.
The gliph Kam Chin Kee drew was one he saw back at Evergreen Palace that he had kept in his mind. As his cultivation increased, he understood the gliph further and found it rather mystical.
It was a palm with five fingers stuck together tightly pointing to the sky. It seemed to be an ordinary palm, but there was energliph all around it.
Taking a proper look, it was as if it was not a gliph nor a palm, but a mountain that pierced through the clouds. The foggy clouds made it seem mysterious as if it grew from the ground to reach for the skies.
Despite not focusing that much on gliphism these days, Chui Yim was still knowledgeable, and the aura he felt made him understand why Kam Chin Kee chose to tattoo this gliph – the power of control.
When the gliph was constructed, the aura of the world subconsciously came for the gliph, turning into the purest form of energliph and congealing.
Kam Chin Kee was a puppeteer who fought with his puppets. As his puppets became increasingly powerful, he would need more strings to control them, and the amount of energliph used would be larger. What Kam Chin Kee needed was a stable and mild gliph that could help him control his puppets. This mysterious gliph fitted all of Kam Chin Kee’s requirements!
