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

Gu Yuexi moved swiftly through the black mist.

The farther east she went, the thicker the surrounding deathly aura became, carrying a cold, corrupting presence.

Fine black ash even began to drift through the air, crunching underfoot.

Faintly, a low roar could be heard in the distance.

It was intermittent, filled with a chilling malice.

They traveled for more than ten li.

The view ahead cleared up somewhat, and the black mist thinned considerably.

Small mounds of earth appeared on the ground, not unlike the graves in a burial mound.

However, they were arranged in neat, orderly squares and had no headstones.

As Gu Yuexi and Chu Sheng drew closer, the ground began to tremble slightly.

Skeleton Monsters began to crawl out of the small mounds, their bony frames creaking and clattering.

Some Skeleton Monsters held rust-covered swords.

Others gripped rotten wooden clubs.

And some skeletons simply clutched half a brick.

The Skeleton Monsters’ Cultivation levels were uneven.

The strongest were at the Profound Understanding Realm, while the weakest were around the Spirit Awakening Realm.

In terms of Blue Star’s Cultivation system, that would be between the King Realm and the Emperor Realm.

If such creatures from the Netherworld were on Blue Star, it would have been destroyed countless times over.

Aside from the Divine Domain and the Hidden Clans, no one would be able to stop them.

But in the Spirit Realm, such strength wasn’t impressive.

Any random third-tier minor sect could easily wipe out these Skeleton Monsters.

The only advantage these Skeleton Monsters had was their overwhelming numbers.

From each small mound, hundreds of Skeleton Monsters would crawl out in a short time.

And they just kept pouring out.

It seemed there was no limit to their numbers.

”This place is too close to the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eye. Any large disturbance would be easily noticed, so the Netherworld wouldn’t dare deploy overly powerful units,” Chu Sheng analyzed casually, pausing in mid-air to look down at the Skeleton Monsters below.

”But on the other hand, the fact that the Netherworld dares to station forces this close to the exit of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eye…”

”...probably means they have almost finished stabilizing this invasion route into the Spirit Realm.”

Gu Yuexi nodded, her expression growing grave.

”It seems we came at just the right time.”

”Once the Netherworld’s grand army completely opens the passage and storms out of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eye, it will be too late.”

”Luoping City is completely unprepared. It would likely be overrun by the Netherworld in a direct assault.”

”At that point, Luoping City would become the Netherworld’s frontline base in the Spirit Realm, leading to endless trouble in the future.”

While Gu Yuexi and Chu Sheng were talking, the graveyard stopped spawning new Skeleton Monsters, seemingly having reached its maximum capacity.

As far as the eye could see, tens of thousands of densely packed Skeleton Monsters completely blocked the path ahead.

The Skeleton Monsters in the front rank were already shambling toward Gu Yuexi and Chu Sheng, raising their weapons to strike.

With a thought, Chu Sheng summoned two Outer Body Avatars.

Two mosquitoes, identical to it, flew forward to meet them.

With a swipe of their forelegs, they easily sliced the dozen or so Skeleton Monsters in the front rank into shattered bone.

With a CLATTER, the skeletons collapsed to the ground, their skulls rolling far into the distance.

The Soul Fire within flickered and slowly faded.

Strangely, however, whenever a Skeleton Monster was slain, a new one would immediately crawl out from the graveyard behind them to take its place.

After fighting for some time, batch after batch of Skeleton Monsters in the front rank fell, yet their total number didn’t decrease in the slightest.

Gu Yuexi observed for a moment before speaking.

”These Skeleton Monsters seem to have a fixed population limit.”

”Every time a Skeleton Monster dies, a spot opens up.”

”Then a new Skeleton Monster crawls out of the graveyard to fill the gap.”

Chu Sheng had noticed this as well.

It stared at the flickering Soul Fire inside the Skeleton Monsters’ skulls and guessed, ”This Soul Fire must be the core of the Skeleton Monsters.”

”If we don’t extinguish the Soul Fire and just smash the Skeleton Monsters to pieces,”

”the Soul Fire will return to the graveyard, reform a new skeleton, and crawl back out.”

Gu Yuexi nodded.

”That must be it.”

As she spoke, a light glowed at her fingertips.
