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

Chu Sheng flew at full speed for over ten minutes.

He finally arrived at the graveyard he had just located using the Eye of God.

Black mist swirled here, and the area it covered was larger than any other graveyard he had absorbed before.

The ground was so dark it was almost black, and the deathly aura was so thick it had nearly solidified.

The Netherworld creatures in this graveyard were also stronger than those in any of the previous ones.

Not only were there dense hordes of Skeleton Soldiers and Zombies,

but several dozen-meter-tall Skeleton Lords and Zombie Commanders stood among them.

The strongest among them, a Skeleton King, had actually reached the Late Stage of the Void Refinement Realm.

With that level of power, an ordinary Divinity Transformation Realm Cultivator who barged in wouldn’t even leave a bone fragment behind.

They would either become food for the Netherworld creatures,

or become new Netherworld creatures themselves.

But for Chu Sheng, it was merely a matter of a little extra effort.

He didn’t waste any time with words and directly unleashed the Nine Tribulations Thunder Prison.

Purple lightning crashed down with a RUMBLE, first clearing out swathes of cannon fodder before he focused on dealing with the Skeleton King.

「An hour later.」

All the Netherworld creatures had been suppressed.

Chu Sheng landed in the center of the graveyard and plunged his mouthparts into the earth.

[Ding! Congratulations to the Host. Your Death Emperor Domain has been promoted to the Death Divine Domain!]

[Current Death Divine Domain Comprehension: 13%]

[Ding! Detected that the Host has met all conditions for the fourteenth comprehensive evolution.]

[Begin the evolution now?]

Chu Sheng didn’t agree right away, instead asking cautiously first.

”How long will the fourteenth comprehensive evolution take?”

[One hundred years.]

’Just as I expected!’

’Following the pattern of his previous evolutions, the thirteenth comprehensive evolution had required thirty years. So, for the fourteenth to require one hundred years seemed perfectly reasonable.’

’However, ever since his tenth comprehensive evolution, when he broke through to the King Realm, Chu Sheng had always prepared large quantities of Heavenly and Earthly Treasures and Energy Crystal Cores to shorten the evolution time. In practice, his evolutions were always completed in an instant. But before coming to the Spirit Realm, he had learned that Gu Yuexi was in danger. To reach the Spirit Realm and save her sooner, he had unhesitatingly gone all-in, using up all the Heavenly and Earthly Treasures and Energy Crystal Cores in his inventory.’

’Right now, his inventory was picked clean; he couldn’t pull out a single thing to speed up the evolution.’

’If he were to undergo the fourteenth comprehensive evolution now, he’d have to sleep for the full hundred years.’

”Don’t start the evolution for now.”

Chu Sheng replied to the system, flapped his wings, and prepared to set off to find and regroup with Gu Yuexi.

Just then,

a massive, thunderous crash suddenly erupted from Gu Yuexi’s direction.

Even from a great distance, he could feel the ground trembling slightly.

’A Celestial Tribulation?!’

Chu Sheng realized it at once.

’This commotion is definitely the Celestial Tribulation for the Divinity Transformation Realm. It seems that after her fight with the Evil Spirit Knight, Gu Yuexi completely solidified her foundation. As a natural result, she has drawn the Celestial Tribulation.’

’There’s no restriction from the Forbidden God Law here, so the Little Empress should have no trouble handling it.’

Although Chu Sheng thought this, he still felt a little worried and couldn’t help but speed up.

He continuously activated his [Boundless Wings], repeatedly using Instant Teleportation within the Netherworld passage.

In less than three minutes,

he arrived at the place where Gu Yuexi was undergoing her tribulation, stopping to watch from a safe distance.

Gu Yuexi stood right in the center of the Celestial Tribulation Thunderclouds.

Her expression was calm, her white robes fluttering loudly in the wind.

Streaks of purple Celestial Thunder crashed down, but she blocked them all by raising her hand and striking with her sword’s light.

After all, she had the accumulated experience of three lifetimes and an extremely solid foundation.

The Celestial Tribulation for the Divinity Transformation Realm posed no real pressure for her.

The nine bolts of the Celestial Tribulation quickly finished falling.

Each bolt was stronger than the last, yet none managed to break through Gu Yuexi’s Defense.

The dark clouds in the sky began to slowly disperse, and it looked as though the Celestial Tribulation was about to end.

Just as Chu Sheng was preparing to approach Gu Yuexi,

the dispersing dark clouds suddenly began to gather again.

Gu Yuexi frowned slightly, a little confused.

’The nine bolts of the Celestial Tribulation should be over. Normally, the thunderclouds are supposed to disperse. Why are they gathering again?’

Even with Immortal Venerable Shi Xi’s complete legacy, Gu Yuexi couldn’t figure out what was happening.

’The Divinity Transformation tribulation has always been nine bolts. I’ve never heard of it happening a second time!’

Gu Yuexi, standing within the tribulation clouds, was completely bewildered.

Chu Sheng, observing from the sidelines, noticed something amiss.

’The nine bolts of the Celestial Tribulation just now had a pure and tyrannical thunder power. They were no different from the Celestial Tribulation other people face when advancing to the Divinity Transformation Realm. But the thunderclouds re-forming now are darker and more oppressive. The aura surging within them carries a thick scent of death and sinister evil. It’s almost identical to the black mist in the Netherworld passage.’

’Could it be because this is a convergence point between the Netherworld and the Spirit Realm, making the location special? After the Spirit Realm’s Celestial Tribulation ended, the Netherworld’s Celestial Tribulation is coming for a second round? A buy-one-get-one-free deal?’

As this possibility occurred to him, Chu Sheng immediately used his Divine Thought to inform Gu Yuexi.

Gu Yuexi was taken aback for a moment.

She carefully distinguished the aura within the Celestial Tribulation.

It did indeed contain a potent Law of Death.

This was quite different from the Spirit Realm’s Celestial Thunder from before, which had been filled with an aura of destruction.

’Could this second Celestial Tribulation really be related to the Netherworld?’

No person or Netherworld creature had ever undergone a tribulation in the passage connecting the Netherworld and the Spirit Realm before.

Therefore, Gu Yuexi couldn’t be certain if Chu Sheng’s guess was correct.

But she didn’t care.

’So what if it’s the Spirit Realm’s Celestial Tribulation! So what if it’s the Netherworld’s Celestial Tribulation! So what if it’s a dual Celestial Tribulation! A single slash of my sword is all it will take!’

Gu Yuexi summoned the Empress Battle Armor, fully activating its triple attribute amplification.

At the same time, she drew the Godslaying Ruins Sword.

She aimed the tip of her sword at the pitch-black thunderclouds above, her eyes resolute.

RUMBLE!

A deep, muffled thunderclap sounded as the Netherworld’s tribulation lightning poured down.

Black lightning, carrying the corrosive power of death, rained down on Gu Yuexi.

Gu Yuexi swung her sword to meet it. The sword’s light collided with the black lightning, erupting in a blinding flash.

As she endured the tribulation lightning tempering her physical body and Divine Soul, she also received a baptism of a completely different Law.

All this time, her path of Cultivation had followed the trajectory set by Immortal Venerable Shi Xi.

Her Cultivation Technique, Laws, and combat style all carried the shadow of Immortal Venerable Shi Xi.

After all, the legacy was laid out before her; following it was the easiest and safest path.

But this Netherworld tribulation lightning, carrying the Law Power of Death that was completely different from the Spirit Realm’s, had, by a strange twist of fate, helped her break free from the inherent shackles of Immortal Venerable Shi Xi’s legacy.

On her original path of the Dao,

she forged a brand-new, different road.

This wasn’t to say that Immortal Venerable Shi Xi’s legacy was bad.

On the contrary, a legacy that even the Celestial Derivation Sect would fight tooth and nail for was definitely one of the most top-tier legacies in the Spirit Realm.

It was precisely because the legacy was so dazzling that wherever Gu Yuexi went, she was labeled as ”the reincarnation of Immortal Venerable Shi Xi.”

She didn’t like this label.

The best way to get rid of this label was to possess a Dao that was uniquely her own!

Not just to follow in the footsteps of her predecessor, walking forward with her eyes closed.

Watching Gu Yuexi, who was fully focused on facing the Netherworld’s Celestial Tribulation, her aura growing more condensed and unique, Chu Sheng quickly understood her thoughts.

’Immortal Venerable Shi Xi was Immortal Venerable Shi Xi. Gu Yuexi was Gu Yuexi. When Gu Yuexi ascends to the Immortal Realm in the future, she wants the world to remember ”Gu Yuexi,” not ”the reincarnation of Immortal Venerable Shi Xi.”’

Chu Sheng had originally planned to step in and help.

But now, it seemed that was no longer necessary.

’If he really did step in and block the tribulation lightning for Gu Yuexi, it would instead affect her Dao heart, and the loss would outweigh the gain.’
