Reincarnated as a Mosquito, I Sucked the Reborn Empress to Tears

CRACK! CRACK-CRACK...

A crisp cracking sound echoed, exceptionally clear in the quiet Cultivation Chamber.

Gu Yuexi’s gaze was locked firmly on that crack.

Immediately after, CRACK, CRACK...

More cracks, like a spider’s web, spread rapidly across the surface of the giant golden cocoon.

The next second, an incomparably brilliant and sacred golden light burst forth from the cracks, instantly piercing through the walls of the training room and shooting straight into the heavens!

The solid walls were actually completely unable to stop the burst of light, which passed directly through them. It was as if the laws of physics no longer existed.

No.

This wasn’t physics, but some kind of profound phenomenon of the Laws!

The next second! BOOM!

The sky above all of Jing University churned and changed color.

The once-clear sky was now completely enveloped in endless golden light.

A vast and sacred aura instantly blanketed the entire Jing University campus, even spreading to the regions beyond.

All the students and teachers on campus stopped what they were doing, looking up in shock toward the center of the phenomenon and its aura.

”My God! What’s happening? A celestial phenomenon?!”

”This aura... so sacred, so powerful! I feel like the bottleneck in my Cultivation is loosening!”

”That direction... it’s, it’s Gu Yuexi’s dorm! Don’t tell me they’ve had another breakthrough?!”

”It must be the Divine Mosquito! The Divine Mosquito must have evolved again! I can’t think of anything else that could cause such a huge commotion!”

”Evolved? Yeah, with the Divine Mosquito, anything is possible!”

”An evolution for a Demon Beast with an Emperor-level Bloodline probably looks just like this, right?”

At that moment, towering waves of shock crashed through everyone’s hearts.

Just what kind of monster—no, what kind of freakishly talented Contracted Beast was this!

In fact... after Gu Yuexi and Chu Sheng became famous throughout the Great Xia, the Beast Tamer profession had become the hottest major... Some children even started catching mosquitos in their youth, hoping to form a contract...

「In the Cultivation Chamber.」

As the golden light erupted, the giant Golden Cocoon finally shattered completely, turning into a sky full of light motes before dissipating into nothingness.

It revealed the brand-new figure within.

It was still a mosquito.

But it was completely different from before.

Its body was still over a meter long, but its entire structure had undergone an earth-shattering transformation.

Its originally pitch-black carapace was now a fantastical color, as deep as a starry sky and shimmering with a seven-colored halo.

Its wings were no longer simply black but had become nearly transparent, covered with countless grain-sized, rune-like golden patterns. Every slight flap would stir ripples of the Law.

Its proboscis, capable of piercing through anything, now glinted with a chilling light that made one’s heart palpitate. It felt as if a single glance could get your soul sucked away.

The entire mosquito no longer looked like a mere creature, but more like a perfect work of murderous art, crafted by the hands of a god.

Just as Gu Yuexi was sizing him up, the fantastical giant mosquito slowly opened its eyes.

It was a pair of massive compound eyes, composed of countless tiny facets.

And now, within those countless facets, the original three tomoe had vanished.

In their place was a new pattern—incredibly complex, incredibly demonic, like a blood-red kaleidoscope!

The moment Gu Yuexi’s gaze met those eyes.

Her heart skipped a beat!

An extreme, soul-deep sense of dread instantly spread through her entire body!

It was the feeling that all her secrets, all her weaknesses, were laid bare under that gaze, with nowhere to hide!

Fortunately, the feeling lasted for less than a second.

The demonic, blood-red kaleidoscopes quickly returned to normal, reverting to the familiar, pitch-black compound eyes she knew.

Chu Sheng gave her a playful wink, then closed his eyes again to carefully sense his newly evolved body.

First came the most direct sensation.

’The explosive increase in my physical attributes!’

He could clearly feel that the power contained within his body, his indestructible defense, and his extreme speed were all more than merely one or two times stronger than before!

This was a comprehensive, overwhelming improvement!

Next, with a thought, Chu Sheng began to inspect his system panel.

[Host: Chu Sheng]

[Race: Samsara Saint Mosquito]

[Lifespan: 2,000 Years]

[Bloodline: Emperor Level (Five Stars)]

[Qi Blood: 8,000,000 (Late Stage Ninth Grade)]

[Mental Power: 9,990,000 (Peak of Ninth-Grade)]

[Evolution Points: 28,000]

[Note: The next full evolution requires reaching a Qi Blood Value of 10,000,000 (King Realm), Mental Power of 10,000,000 (King Realm), and consuming 1,000,000 Evolution Points to reach the Origin Realm.]

’Hmm... looking at the basic stats, the improvement doesn’t seem particularly exaggerated.’

’My Bloodline went from Emperor Level, One Star to Five Stars. That’s a decent improvement.’

’What’s more surprising is my Mental Power.’

’It actually skyrocketed during this evolution, reaching 9,990,000—the Peak of Ninth-Grade. I’m just one step away from officially breaking through to the King Realm!’

’What happened?’

Chu Sheng asked the system in his mind.

The system’s voice was as cold as ever.

[The Divine Soul Power from ’Xiaobai’ that was previously stored for you has been completely absorbed following the improvement of your constitution.]

’Oh, so that’s what it was.’

Chu Sheng understood.

’No wonder... I couldn’t absorb it all before. My constitution wasn’t strong enough.’

He pressed on, ’What about the other one, the Divine Soul Power from the ”Gu Yuexi” of ten thousand years ago? Why haven’t I absorbed that yet?’

[That Divine Soul Power contains a special Law. The Host does not currently meet the conditions for absorption. It is estimated that the next full evolution will be required.]

’Fine...’

Chu Sheng pursed his lips. Although he was a little disappointed, he could still accept it.

He rallied his spirits and continued checking the data panel.

Next up was the main event of this evolution.

The changes to his Skills!

[Current Leveled Skills are as follows:]

[Nether Flame Insect Nest Lv15, Nether Vision Lv12, God-devouring Needle Lv15, Soul-Bursting Flame Feather Lv11, Spirit Returning and Spirit-Extinguishing Technique Lv9, Nether Flame Battle Armor Lv10, Monarch’s Suppression Lv10, Ten Thousand Insects Substitute Lv10.]

’Holy shit!’

Seeing the list, Chu Sheng’s mosquito eyes went wide.

’What’s going on?’

’All of my leveled Skills... they all jumped up by three levels!’

’This... this isn’t right!’

While excited, Chu Sheng also felt a flicker of suspicion.

”Bzz, bzz, System, what’s the deal? Why are you suddenly so generous?”

[Ding. Acknowledged. During this evolution process, an unexpected gift of energy was received. I will now replay the scene for you.]

The system’s voice was still just as cold, devoid of any emotion.

But then, a scene slowly materialized in Chu Sheng’s mind.

It was after he had transformed into the Golden Cocoon. A faint, ethereal image of Xiaobai appeared beside it.

He watched quietly for a long time. Then, without any hesitation, he turned into a beam of light and merged into the Golden Cocoon.

With that, the last trace of him in this world completely vanished.

Chu Sheng fell silent.

He said no more, merely engraving the proud, lonely figure that had its back to him as it merged into the light, deep into his memory.

’Sigh, now I’m truly in his debt.’

’Being in debt isn’t the problem. The scary part is owing a debt you have no way to repay.’
