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

It was purple light!

The mountains, rivers, sun, and moon within the scroll painting all suddenly lit up, emitting an intense purple light.

Moreover, the entire scroll began to tremble violently, repelling the faint golden light the Golden Cocoon had cast upon it.

Every time the Golden Cocoon absorbed one of the Heavenly and Earthly Treasures to accelerate its process, a wisp of golden light would envelop the item. In the process of absorbing so many Spiritual Artifacts and Spiritual Treasures, not a single item had shown a trace of resistance.

Even Celestial Tier Spiritual Artifacts were no exception.

But this scroll, which appeared to be the most ordinary of them all, displayed intense ’resistance’!

It emitted a faint, primordial aura, and its purple light was actually able to hold the Golden Cocoon’s golden glow at bay!

Soon, however, another wisp of golden light split off from the Golden Cocoon and landed on the scroll.

Instantly, the scroll’s trembling intensified, but it continued to resist stubbornly.

As the scroll trembled, the entire mountain on which the Qin Manor stood began to shake as well!

Finally, the Golden Cocoon split off a third wisp of golden light.

The moment this third wisp of golden light descended, the scroll—already at its limit—was instantly defeated. The purple light on its surface was consumed by the golden light, bit by bit.

Gradually, just like the other items, the scroll’s Energy was drained away. The mountains, plants, and trees within the painting withered, and its rivers began to run dry...

After absorbing the scroll, the light emanating from the Golden Cocoon became several times brighter.

Finally, a CRACK echoed.

A crack appeared on the Golden Cocoon.

...

「Inside the Qin Manor.」

The intense tremors shocked everyone.

The Qin Family Patriarch, Qin Tianming, appeared in the sky above the manor, his brows furrowed.

He spoke in a deep voice, ”There is no need for panic. Everyone, continue with your duties.”

Several Qin Family Elders flew out to join him. One of them spoke up:

”This area has been surveyed; the probability of seismic activity is extremely low.”

”The tremors are coming from underground. Could there be a problem with the treasury?”

Another Elder shook his head:

”Only those of the direct Qin Bloodline can enter the treasury. Besides, the Great Clan Elder is personally standing guard. What could possibly happen?”

Hearing this, Qin Tianming waved a hand.

”No need for speculation. We’ll know once we take a look.”

With that, the three of them hurried toward the underground treasury.

Behind them, Qin Wudao watched their departure, his face deathly pale.

’Damn you, mosquito! What the hell are you trying to pull?!’

...

「The Underground Treasury.」

The elevator doors opened, and Qin Tianming strode out, flanked by two Elders.

By now, the tremors had stopped.

Qin Tianming walked briskly to the old man at the entrance and bowed respectfully.

”Clan Elder, have there been any abnormalities in the treasury recently?”

The old man slowly opened his eyes and uttered a few words:

”No one has entered the treasury in the past month.”

Qin Tianming breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed the treasury wasn’t the source of the problem after all.

Still, since they were already here, he’d feel more at ease taking a look inside.

So, he and the two Elders pushed open the grand doors to the treasury.

Instantly, his expression changed!

The two Elders behind him cried out in alarm.

”What happened?!”

”Why does it look like all the Spiritual Qi has vanished from these treasure halls?!”

Qin Tianming rushed to the Hall of Spirit Medicine. The hall’s protective Grand Array was still active. He opened the array and stepped inside...

The vast Hall of Spirit Medicine was in complete disarray. The shelves were nearly bare, with nothing left but a floor littered with empty Elixir vials.

”What is going on?!”

”Where are the Elixirs?! The Essence Blood?!”

His face a grim mask, Qin Tianming immediately rushed to the Hall of Spiritual Plants, only to find an even more devastating sight! Every Spirit Grass had been completely drained of its spiritual nature.

”The Hall of Spiritual Artifacts! It looks like there’s still a glow from the Hall of Spiritual Artifacts!”

Clinging to their last shred of hope, Qin Tianming and the two Elders rushed into the hall.

Ruined. Everything was ruined!

Gazing at the floor covered in Spiritual Artifacts and Spiritual Treasures, all drained of their Spiritual Qi, the eyes of Qin Tianming and the two Elders turned bloodshot.

Then, their gazes turned to the giant Golden Cocoon in the center.

”What... What is that thing?”

”It must be this thing! It destroyed all the treasures in the hall!”

”Damn it, how did something like this get into our treasury?!”

But just as the three of them stood there in shock, something even more terrifying was happening above the Qin Manor. The once-clear night sky had turned completely black.

Clouds!

And not just ordinary dark clouds—they were ink-black clouds, so dense they seemed almost solid!

Layer upon layer, swath after swath, the clouds seemed to materialize from thin air, churning violently with the sky above the Qin Manor as their epicenter.

The clouds grew thicker and thicker, pressing lower and lower.

Yet, within these terrifying clouds, there was no movement at all. Only an eerie calm.

A terrifying calm, as if something monstrous was brewing within!

...

This bizarre phenomenon alarmed the entire Capital City. Countless Cultivators took to the skies, gazing from a distance toward the heavens above the Qin Mansion.

The churning clouds began to spin violently, a rift gradually tearing open in their center.

Within the rift, there was no light.

There was only a pure, heart-stopping darkness that seemed capable of devouring everything.

And deep within that darkness, faint arcs of purple lightning slithered and coiled, gathering power, thrumming with a silent roar.

The lightning’s color was not the usual silver-white, but an ominous purple so dark it was nearly black.

A purple that veered into black.

A black that bled into purple.

”Is this... a Celestial Tribulation?!”

”Someone at the Qin Mansion is undergoing a tribulation?”

”How is that possible?!”

Throughout the Capital City, countless experts sensed this terrifying aura and snapped their eyes open.

「At the same time.」

On the second level of Secret Realm Zero, Gu Yuexi had just emerged from a month of closed-door Cultivation.

The moment she stepped out of the Secret Realm, Gu Yuexi’s expression changed dramatically.

This aura, this chilling presence that made her blood run cold—she was all too familiar with it!

Celestial Tribulation!

Her gaze, incredibly sharp, instantly locked onto the city outskirts.

In the Spiritual Energy Revival Era, the only time a member of the Human Race would face a Celestial Tribulation was when ascending to the Divine Realm.

And she, Gu Yuexi, had fallen during a lightning tribulation at the final moment of her own ascension to the Divine Realm.

Therefore, the appearance of a Celestial Tribulation meant a new Divine Realm expert might be born! On Blue Star, this was an absolutely monumental event.

It had been a full three hundred years since a Celestial Tribulation had appeared!

”That’s the direction of the Qin Family’s estate.”

”Is someone from the Qin Family attempting to break through to the Divine Realm?”

Gu Yuexi stared at the anomaly in the sky, her brow furrowed as she murmured to herself:

”’Something’s not right. The power of this Celestial Tribulation seems... lacking. Not only is it weaker than the one I faced, but even its form is slightly different.’”

”’What in the world is happening?’”

Suddenly!

A jolt went through Gu Yuexi’s heart!

’Wait!’

’Where is that damn mosquito?’

’Through the Blood Covenant, she could sense it... the damn mosquito’s location was right there!’

’Was this Celestial Tribulation... the mosquito’s doing?!’

’What on earth is he doing?! How did he even manage to trigger a Celestial Tribulation?!’

Gu Yuexi was first utterly shocked, but that shock quickly morphed into profound worry.

Having fallen in a Celestial Tribulation herself, she knew its terror all too well. A deep sense of unease washed over her.

Without a moment’s hesitation, she shot into the air, racing toward the Qin Manor at top speed!
