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

”Wh... why is this happening?”

Gong Xuan was utterly dumbfounded, his mind a complete blank.

He stared blankly at the altar before him, now completely shattered and devoid of light, unable to comprehend what had just transpired.

The altar... why did it shatter?

It was constructed with ancient array patterns from the Divine Revelation Era! How could it just shatter without any warning?!

Who did this?

What in the world just happened?!

”N-no... impossible...”

The tattered, blood-red phantom’s roar was no longer filled with rage, but with extreme terror and disbelief!

It had sensed it!

In that fleeting moment, a power it was incredibly familiar with—one that should never have appeared here—had descended from nowhere and destroyed all the altars!

It was... the Power of Origin of this world!

This was a concept entirely different from the Origin and Realm that existed beneath the Laws!

It was the most core, most fundamental power that constituted this entire Grotto Heaven! It contained all the Power of Law in this world!

Only by controlling the core of this world and becoming its true master could one command such power!

In other words...

’The core of the Ancestral Hall... has been taken over by someone?’

’Who could it be?’

The answer... seemed obvious.

Who else could it be but that damn mosquito?!

But how was that possible?!

To control the core of a Grotto Heaven, one would need at least the power of the Divine Realm and a special divine ability to even have a chance!

It’s just a King-level Insect Beast!

”What... what in the world is it?” The Ancient God’s phantom was completely stunned. The very thing it had worried about, the very thing it had feared the most, had actually happened!

And it happened in a way it couldn’t possibly comprehend!

It was finished.

Utterly finished.

”My lord... my lord! What’s going on?!” Gong Xuan trembled all over, his voice choked with sobs. His last glimmer of hope seemed about to be extinguished.

The blood-red phantom ignored him, muttering despairingly to itself:

”They were right...”

”That mosquito... that mosquito really is the savior of your Witch Race...”

”???”

Gong Xuan was completely frozen.

’What does that mean?’

’The mosquito did it?!’

But he would never find out the answer. Just then, an unprecedentedly powerful force surged through Gu Yuexi’s body like a vast river of stars!

This power...

Gu Yuexi’s spirit was stirred. She could feel that this power was even stronger than what she possessed in her past life at the Peak of the Emperor Realm!

’What is this?’

’Is this the power of the Divine Realm?’

’No... it’s not like that at all...’

Whether it was when she faced her tribulations in her past life, or at Lin Daosheng’s tomb, the Divine Realm power she’d perceived was completely different from this.

Gu Yuexi was a little lost. ’What on earth has that damn mosquito done?’

’Did it really become the god of this world?’

’And bestowed the power of this world upon me?’

’H-how is that possible? How did it do it?’

Even though she had been shocked countless times by Chu Sheng’s endless, absurd abilities, she had thought she was completely used to it. But this time... she was still floored.

”This is... simply heaven-defying...”

Gu Yuexi shook her head. Since she couldn’t figure it out, she stopped thinking about it. Instead, she calmed her mind and carefully experienced the terrifying, immense power within her, a power that could rival the Divine Realm.

’I never thought I’d get to experience power beyond the Emperor Realm ahead of schedule.’

’It’s... actually quite nice...’

This was what she had pursued for two lifetimes...

”Thank you.”

A trace of gratitude welled up in Gu Yuexi’s heart. It was the first time she had thanked him so sincerely.

”No problem! We’re tight bros!”

”No, wait... Don’t get so familiar with this god! Foolish believer, hurry up and help this god slay this invading Ancient God!”

Gu Yuexi: ”...Dumbass.”

The shred of gratitude that had just risen in her heart instantly vanished.

Expressionlessly, she gripped the Divine Sword in her hand once more.

This time, she didn’t feel the slightest bit of weight. In her hand, the sword was as light as a feather.

She swung it casually!

A beam of sword light, a hundred times more brilliant than before, instantly slashed out!

The blood-red phantom didn’t even have time to scream before it was completely evaporated by the sword light, leaving not a single trace behind!

And Gong Xuan, too, was reduced to ashes in the same flash of light.

The sword light continued unabated, like a brilliant river of stars stretching across the heavens, and carrying an supreme, annihilating power, it viciously struck the empty space ahead!

”BOOM—!!!”

A deafening shattering sound echoed through the nine heavens as the solid spatial barrier crumbled like fragile glass!

That single strike had forcibly torn a massive, pitch-black, and bottomless rift in the sky, stretching for hundreds of zhang!

The rift was like the gaping, abyssal maw of an Ancient Fierce Beast, unleashing an unparalleled torrent of turbulent space and void storms that swept out in all directions like an apocalypse!

The entire Grotto Heaven trembled violently. Endless Spiritual Qi was sucked madly back into the black abyss, as if the world itself would be split in two by this devastating strike!

Chu Sheng: ”...”

’Are you f*cking trying to cleave my world in half?!’

’Why did you use so much force!!’

...

「Outside the stone hall.」

All the Witch Race People stared, dumbfounded, at the scene.

They had watched as that woman, who had clearly been exhausted, suddenly erupted with power a hundred times more terrifying than before!

One strike!

With just one casual-looking strike, she had instantly killed the terrifying existence that even the Divine Sword couldn’t slay!

She had even... sliced open a spatial rift!

Th-that was a strike from the Divine Realm, wasn’t it?!

Gu Yuexi silently looked at her hand, then slowly sheathed her sword.

She glanced back coolly at the petrified Witch Race People in the square.

”It has nothing to do with me.”

”If you want to thank someone, thank that mosquito.”

”It was the one who gave me this power.”

”???!!!”

Everyone was once again stunned.

’What?!’

’It was the mosquito?’

’How is that possible! Didn’t it get scared and go into hiding?’

’Could it be... it wasn’t hiding? Did it really go off to do something big?’

’The disappearance of the Ancestral Hall... it wasn’t the Ancient God’s doing, but was actually related to the mosquito?’

’But how did it do it?!’

...

Chu Sheng’s consciousness could now overlook every corner of this world.

The sensation was far clearer than his upgraded [Chaos True Sight].

[Chaos True Sight] was ”seeing.”

But this was ”controlling.”

He was the master of this world!

Seeing the bewildered looks on the faces of the Witch Race People in the square, Chu Sheng was actually a little surprised.

’What happened to this being the Witch Ancestral Land? What happened to the Ancestral Hall?’

’You Witch Race People were born and raised here. Don’t you know that the core of your Ancestral Hall is the core of this world?’

’If you control the core of the Ancestral Hall, you control the world!’

’Good grief, has their legacy been completely severed?’

’Whatever, I can’t be bothered to think about it.’

’In any case, I’ve really struck it rich this time!’

’I just wanted to find a way to control the Twelve Ancestral Witch Stone Statues and figure out how to use the Time Trace Hourglass. I never expected I’d end up stealing their entire home base!’

’An epic backdoor! I’m even more awesome than Meng Lei!’

Just now, when Chu Sheng asked Gu Yuexi to stall for ten minutes, he was actually figuring out how to use the Ancestral Hall’s core to control the entire world.

At first, he thought it would be very difficult.

After all, back in his own Primordial Grotto Heaven, just making a single blade of grass grow had consumed a huge amount of his Mental Power.

’Wouldn’t controlling such a large world drain me completely dry?’

But it turned out he was completely wrong.

The energy needed to control this Grotto Heaven didn’t require his Mental Power at all.

All the energy came from the core of the Ancestral Hall—in other words, the inherent Power of Origin of the Grotto Heaven itself.

He was merely acting as a commander, with almost no consumption of his own power.

This proved one thing.

The core of the Ancestral Hall had thoroughly and completely acknowledged him as its master.

It was as easy to use as his own limbs. He had become the undisputed master of this world!

All of this, when you got down to it, was really a stroke of luck.

If he hadn’t happened to absorb the fragment of the Map of Mountains and Rivers in the Qin Family’s treasury, allowing his Lifebound Space to evolve into the [Primordial Grotto Heaven]...

If he hadn’t happened to come to this Witch Ancestral Land because of his deal with Yun Yao...

If he hadn’t happened to discover that this Ancestral Land was also one of the fragments of the Map of Mountains and Rivers, and that its core, the Ancestral Hall, could be absorbed by his [Primordial Grotto Heaven]...

...how could a mere King-level cultivator like him have possibly become the master of a Grotto Heaven?

’Is this what they call a fortuitous encounter? Awesome!’

However, being inexplicably dragged into an Ancient God’s resurrection plot had certainly made him break out in a cold sweat.

If he hadn’t been lucky enough to gain control of this world, everyone would have been doomed today.

’Speaking of which... in her past life, Gu Yuexi seemed to have entered Secret Realm Zero when she was at the Emperor Realm to get the Time Trace Hourglass, right? After all, she said that thing was the key to her breakthrough into the Emperor Realm.’

”That means, in the previous life, Yun Yao never managed to get the Time Trace Hourglass, nor did she succeed in saving the Witch Race.”

”And I didn’t exist in the last life, so this Ancient God probably succeeded in resurrecting and wiped out the entire Witch Race!”

”Looks like I really am the destined great savior of the Witch Race!”

”In that case... this Lord Mosquito will reluctantly do you the favor of becoming the master of your entire race!”

Chu Sheng chuckled inwardly, then stopped overthinking. He prepared to reveal himself and find Gu Yuexi. This Ancestral Hall core... or rather, world core, he still hadn’t figured it out yet.

’How do I use it to activate the Time Trace Hourglass? How do I solve the Witch Race’s curse?’

’Better go find the Little Empress and study it together...’

However, just as Chu Sheng was about to fly up from the ruins, something unexpected happened!

From within the spatial rift that Gu Yuexi had sliced open with her sword...

...several women in ancient-style long dresses gracefully stepped out of the rift and landed on the ground!

The three women were all stunningly beautiful, each with a unique temperament.

The woman in the lead wore a luxurious golden palace gown. A divine light flowed in her phoenix eyes as they opened and closed, and she naturally exuded an imposing air of looking down on the world. She scanned her surroundings and spoke with confusion:

”How is there a Grotto Heaven here? Hmm? The aura of the Witch Race? Oh, so it’s just a place where these barbarians are barely hanging on?”

The young woman to her left, dressed in a turquoise dress, seemed a bit more delicate and said excitedly, ”What’s with this spatial rift? Was it opened just for us? That person is pretty nice, then. After drifting in the void for so long, we finally have a place to land!”

”Probably just a coincidence... This damned Ancestral Ruins Realm. That ’Immortal Venerable Shi Xi’s’ Forbidden God Law is still in effect, so we can’t get in at all. It’s really...”

The last woman was dressed in white, with a disposition as cold and distant as the moon. An invisible Dao charm seemed to flow around her.

As she was speaking, her gaze unintentionally swept over Gu Yuexi.

The next second, the white-robed woman began to tremble violently. The color drained from her face as she pointed at Gu Yuexi with a shrill voice.

”Imm... Immortal Venerable Shi Xi?!”

The golden-robed woman in the lead and the girl in the green dress froze at her words. Following her gaze, their expressions also changed drastically in an instant!

”She’s still alive?!”

”This is impossible...”

”RUN!!!!”

Then, without any hesitation, the three women turned and scrambled madly back into the spatial rift!

Gu Yuexi: ”???”

Chu Sheng: ”???”

The Witch Race People: ”???”
