The Primordial Mosquito Dao Chronicle

Just as Mosquito Taoist was lost in thought, three figures carrying a Xuanhuang Pagoda flew in from the chaos.

Upon seeing this, Mosquito Taoist knew that these must be the Three Pure Ones. Just as rumored, Laozi was calm and primal, while Tongtian was arrogant and unruly.

The Three Pure Ones had just landed in front of the Purple Cloud Palace when they saw two people already sitting there, which surprised them. However, they dared not act presumptuously before the Sage, and after Haotian and the other explained, they also sat down to the side.

Yuanshi looked resentful, glancing at Mosquito Daoist and Styx every now and then. In this primordial world, apart from his elder brother Laozi, when had he ever submitted to anyone else? He comforted himself, thinking that they were just lucky to have arrived earlier than them.

Mosquito Taoist also sensed that someone was watching him, so he slowly opened his eyes and looked at Primordial.

"This fellow Daoist has been spying on me. Could it be that he has a grudge against me?"

Even the Primal Nature could see that the Mosquito Taoist was transformed from one of the five insects of heaven and earth, and arrogantly said, "Hmph, what face do you, a creature covered in fur and armor, have to call yourself a humble Taoist?"

Mosquito Taoist's eyes flashed with a sharp light. He knew that unlike Lu Er, he was outside the Three Realms and outside the Five Elements, so it was not surprising that people could see that he was a blood-winged black mosquito.

He had always dressed like a gentleman and never provoked trouble, always keeping a low profile. But that didn't mean he was easy to bully; he immediately stood up with Styx.

“You are arrogant and look down on us, which I cannot control, but your words are insolent, so it seems we are going to have a fight.” After saying that, he looked at Styx, “Second brother, step aside. These three are not worth my attention.”

Then he said to the Three Pure Ones, "The three of you, come at me together!"

Without waiting for a reply, Mosquito Taoist unleashed the Qiankun Ruler and hurled it at Primordial. He was no pushover and understood the principle of striking first.

Just as Yuanshi Gang was about to speak, he saw Lingbao attacking him. Strangely, as soon as Mosquito Daoist unleashed Lingbao, it was already in front of him. Fortunately, Laozi had been on guard while they were talking. As soon as Mosquito Daoist finished speaking, he released the Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang Linglong Pagoda, which hung above the three of them, with rays of golden light descending down.

"boom...!"

The Qiankun Ruler and the Xuanhuang Pagoda collided, producing a loud bang that was particularly jarring in the silent Zixiao Palace, with the echo lingering long afterward.

After blocking the attack, Laozi wanted to speak, but Tongtian drew his Qingping Sword and was about to kill him.

"Fellow Daoists, the Dao Ancestor's teachings cannot be disobeyed. Please refrain from further fighting."

Haotian hurriedly stepped forward to persuade them, but before he could react, he saw the group start fighting. A few beads of cold sweat immediately appeared on his forehead. He thought to himself, "If my teacher blames me, even as a disciple of the Dao Ancestor, I can't bear it."

Upon hearing Haotian's words, Laozi immediately put away the Xuanhuang Pagoda, clasped his hands in a fist salute to Mosquito Daoist, and said, "Fellow Daoist, my second brother was impetuous, please forgive him!"

Mosquito Taoist also put away the Qiankun Ruler, then gave Laozi a deep look. In this situation, he was still apologizing to him; his cunning was truly profound. Since Laozi had said that, it would be petty of him not to respond.

"Back when we fought Rahu, even Hongjun addressed me as a fellow Daoist. How dare you spout such arrogant words? Hmph..." With that, he waved his hand, snorted coldly, and sat down cross-legged again in front of Zixiao Palace.

But I still gave him a heads-up, 'I fought alongside Hongjun, so don't underestimate me.'

Of course, this is just Mosquito Taoist trying to glorify himself. Although he was present during the battle, he wasn't qualified to participate; he was merely hiding there and reaping the benefits. Of course, self-destructing the great formation disrupted Rahu's plans, so he could be considered to have done something meritorious. Didn't Heaven reward him with merit in the end?

"Brother, why did you apologize to him? The three of us aren't necessarily afraid of him," Yuanshi transmitted his voice to Laozi, somewhat indignant, as they returned to their original spot.

Laozi glanced at Yuanshi and Tongtian and said calmly, "Didn't you two notice that his cultivation has broken through to the Quasi-Saint level? He didn't use his full strength just now; he was just testing the waters. And the laws of space are also impossible to defend against. Besides, there is someone standing behind him whose cultivation is no less than ours. Before you reach that level of strength, you must not provoke him again."

Upon hearing Lao Tzu's words, Yuanshi and Tongtian nodded almost imperceptibly.

As time passed, the powerful beings of the primordial era arrived one after another in front of Zixiao Palace, but none of them made a fuss; they simply sat down at the entrance and waited. Mosquito Daoist had also noticed them, but he didn't recognize any of these powerful beings and could only guess their identities based on his spiritual treasures.

A zither, presumably the Fuxi Zither, surrounded Nuwa and Fuxi. Dijun stood on the Hetu and had the Luoshu above his head, while Donghuang Taiyi held the Chaos Bell. He had seen these people as soon as they entered Zixiao Palace. Apart from them, he hadn't noticed anyone else. He also hadn't seen Jieyin or Zhunti, presumably because they considered themselves of high status and planned to appear last.

..........

As the three thousand mark was about to be reached and no one else arrived, Haotian and Yaochi stepped forward and said, "The three thousand years have arrived. The gates of Zixiao Palace are open. Please enter."

Seeing the palace gates wide open, Mosquito Taoist transmitted his voice to Styx, saying something that Styx nodded repeatedly, while Mosquito Taoist himself fled into the palace.

As the group was walking, they saw Mosquito Daoist fly past them. They immediately stopped caring whether it was Hongjun's Daoist temple or not, and all used their magic power to rush forward.

Although the Purple Cloud Palace did not explicitly prohibit the use of magic, everyone showed sufficient respect. Unexpectedly, some people still disregarded the rules, all unwilling to fall behind and afraid that the opportunity would be snatched away by others.

Mosquito Taoist was the first to arrive at the hall and saw a high platform, which he assumed was where Hongjun was giving his sermons. There were six futons placed at the front of the platform. He rolled his eyes and sat down on the third futon.

Then the Three Pure Ones arrived. The three were curious as to why he didn't sit in the first seat, nor did he bring his brothers along, but instead arrived alone first.

But many others had already followed behind, so he didn't think much of it and took the first seat, followed by the Primordial One. Tongtian had no choice; after all, he was the youngest of the three in terms of seniority. He could only sit on the fourth prayer mat.

The last two prayer mats were snatched up by a Kunpeng with eagle eyes and a sharp beak, and Hongyun, dressed in a red robe.

Everyone heard Hongjun singing a Taoist song, which showed that the futon contained profound secrets. However, seeing that the six futons had already been taken, the crowd was helpless, but they still pushed forward, with the stronger ones sitting behind the ones who had taken the futons.

When Mosquito Taoist saw Nuwa and Fuxi, both of them wore expressions of annoyance, indicating that they were not in a good mood. Little did they know that if Mosquito Taoist hadn't sent a telepathic message to the Styx River, instructing him to deliberately slow down and run in front of them, they might have been among the victims.

He turned his head and saw Styx sitting in the corner. He nodded to him and then closed his eyes without saying a word.
