Chapter 831 - 830: Lord Mosquito Died Yet Again? Only the Jiang Family Grand Elder Panicked!

"Where is Lord Mosquito?"

Someone among the spectating crowd of Loose Cultivators suddenly whispered, breaking the dead silence of the scene.

"Weren’t there fifty Lord Mosquitoes flying all over the sky just a moment ago? How did they all disappear in just a minute?"

"What do you mean fifty Lord Mosquitoes? Those were Lord Mosquito’s clones, you idiot!" someone whispered back.

No one else replied. The silence lasted for three whole seconds, suffocating everyone present.

Finally, Daya couldn’t hold back anymore. Tearfully, she voiced the fear that no one else dared to say. "All of Lord Mosquito’s clones are dead... Does that mean Lord Mosquito is dead too?"

Because she broke the ice, the other Loose Cultivators dared to chime in. A middle-aged Cultivator in a blue Daoist robe shook his head with a bitter smile.

"Given the situation earlier, it was obvious that Lord Mosquito couldn’t defeat the Jiang Family Grand Elder, which is why he used the Clone Technique. Turning into fifty clones to scatter and flee was a move born of sheer desperation.

"But I have to admit, Lord Mosquito’s Clone Skill is truly badass. Despite having Cultivation at the Half-Step True God Realm, the Jiang Family Grand Elder couldn’t even tell which were the clones and which was the original body.

"In the end, the Jiang Family Grand Elder had no other choice but to kill them one by one. He must have figured that if he destroyed all the clones, he would eventually kill the main body.

"Unfortunately for him, Lord Mosquito’s clones also possessed some strength. Although the Jiang Family Grand Elder’s Seven-Star Station Soul was powerful, it couldn’t wipe out all the clones at once. This dragged the battle between the Jiang Family Grand Elder and Lord Mosquito into a war of attrition.

"Lord Mosquito’s clones were continuously being killed. At the same time, the Jiang Family Grand Elder’s Divine Power was constantly being depleted. If they kept fighting like that, the Jiang Family Grand Elder’s Divine Power would have been exhausted before many of Lord Mosquito’s clones even died.

"Ultimately, the Jiang Family Grand Elder was pushed to the brink and had to consume a Fiery Sun Pill."

Daya tilted her head, tears still clinging to the corners of her eyes, and asked in confusion, "What is a Fiery Sun Pill? It sounds super powerful."

Huo Lang sighed beside her and explained in a low voice, "A Cultivator who consumes a Fiery Sun Pill will have an endless supply of Divine Power for one minute. It’s basically like having infinite mana."

Daya nodded in sudden realization and clenched her fists. "Isn’t that basically cheating? That’s so shameless!!!"

"Tell me about it," Huo Lang lamented, his voice growing fainter. "After taking the pill, the Jiang Family Grand Elder’s Speed in killing the clones instantly surged. In just half a minute, he wiped out more than half of Lord Mosquito’s clones.

"Fortunately, Lord Mosquito has unparalleled intelligence and played the Jiang Family Grand Elder like a fiddle. Even after killing more than half of them, the Grand Elder still couldn’t hit Lord Mosquito’s original body.

"However, the Jiang Family Grand Elder was killing them way too fast. Left with no other option, Lord Mosquito had to scatter his remaining clones to flee.

"I don’t know whether to say the Jiang Family Grand Elder had terrible luck or if Lord Mosquito just played him too hard. Out of the forty-nine he killed, every single one was a clone. It wasn’t until the very last second that he finally caught up to the final one.

"And then...

"And then..."

Huo Lang repeated "and then" twice but couldn’t bring himself to finish the sentence.

Daya’s eyes instantly widened, her voice trembling violently. "Was Lord Mosquito... really killed by the Jiang Family Grand Elder?!"

She had merely been guessing earlier, holding onto a sliver of hope. She had thought that since Lord Mosquito was so incredible, he definitely had another trick up his sleeve. But hearing Huo Lang say this, her heart instantly sank to rock bottom.

Huo Lang didn’t answer directly. Instead, he kept his head down and phrased it as tactfully as possible. "I can’t fathom any way for Lord Mosquito to survive."

With all fifty clones annihilated, no one could possibly walk away alive.

Tears streamed down Daya’s face once again. Her voice was completely choked with sobs. "Lord Mosquito is so amazing, how could he possibly die?! It must be fake! Yes, it has to be fake. The ones the Jiang Family Grand Elder killed were definitely all clones!!!"

An Elder Cultivator at the Void Refinement Realm standing beside them sighed helplessly and shook his head. "Little girl, don’t hold onto false hope. When Lord Mosquito deployed his clones, so many pairs of eyes were watching.

"It’s one thing if we Loose Cultivators couldn’t see through it due to our low Cultivation, but the family Elders watching the battle with us have Cultivated for tens of thousands of years. They are at least at the Integration Realm Peak. Several of them are even powerhouses at the Half-Step True God Realm.

"If even they couldn’t spot anything unusual, how could Lord Mosquito possibly have any backup plans left?"

The Elder Cultivator paused, his voice turning even more somber. "Furthermore, the Jiang Family Grand Elder was fighting Lord Mosquito at close range the entire time. With his Cultivation at the Half-Step True God Realm, he didn’t detect even the slightest flaw in Lord Mosquito’s clones.

"Without a doubt, Lord Mosquito’s original body had to be among those fifty clones. Although the Jiang Family Grand Elder didn’t kill the final clone until the very last second, there is no question that the last one to die was definitely Lord Mosquito’s original body!

"Sigh." The Elder Cultivator let out a long breath. "Lord Mosquito’s abilities were already heaven-defying enough, but unfortunately, the gap in their Realms was simply too vast. Enduring for so long and forcing the Jiang Family Grand Elder to even use a Fiery Sun Pill is already something to be immensely proud of."

No one refuted the Void Refinement Realm Cultivator’s deduction, as everyone silently agreed in their hearts. Lord Mosquito couldn’t possibly survive under such circumstances. With fifty clones entirely annihilated, the original body couldn’t exist on its own.

The atmosphere among the Loose Cultivators instantly turned incredibly heavy, and they all hung their heads in dismay. Some silently clenched their fists, some had red-rimmed eyes, and others let out soft sighs. The tiny spark of rebellious hope that had just ignited was now completely snuffed out.

Meanwhile, at the center of the battlefield.

After the Jiang Family Grand Elder killed the final clone of Chu Sheng, he hadn’t even had the time to properly celebrate his victory before a faint, familiar sound suddenly rang in his ears.

BUZZ.

It buzzed incessantly, drifting near and far around his ears.

Under normal circumstances, the sudden buzz of a Mosquito by one’s ear would be perfectly normal. After all, Mosquitoes were one of the most abundant insects everywhere, impossible to fully guard against.

But this was the core battlefield of a Half-Step True God Realm fight! The chaotic turbulence of wild Energy here could instantly rip a fully Cultivated Great Demon to shreds. How could a mere ordinary Mosquito be flying around in a place like this? Let alone daring to fly right up to the ear of a Half-Step True God Realm powerhouse?!

Moreover, this buzzing sound was far too familiar. Just moments ago, fifty Mosquitoes making this exact noise had been swarming around him, tormenting him for quite a while. Even if the Jiang Family Grand Elder wanted to forget this sound, it would be as difficult as ascending to the heavens!

He thought, "I’ve already killed all fifty clones, so why is there still buzzing?"

The Jiang Family Grand Elder’s heart skipped a beat, and he quickly looked around. However, no matter how hard he searched, he couldn’t spot a single trace of a Mosquito.

He wondered, "What is going on? Could it be that my Divine Power is so depleted that I’m starting to have auditory hallucinations?"

Frowning, he reluctantly spread his Divine Thought to carefully sense his surroundings. But the effects of the Fiery Sun Pill had worn off, leaving his Divine Power completely drained. In order to wipe out all of Chu Sheng’s clones, he had even burned his Divine Soul at the very end. Now, with his Divine Soul severely damaged, he was relying entirely on his formidable Divine Body to hold himself together. His Divine Thought was at its absolute weakest.

He could only force himself to rally his Spirit, meticulously sweeping his perception over the immediate area.

In the end, he found Nothingness. He couldn’t even sense the shadow of a Mosquito.
