The Primordial Mosquito Dao Chronicle

Chapter 50: The Great Formation Shows Its Power

"Fellow Daoists, I have been intimidated by so many people, so I must collect some compensation for my mental distress. If you have nothing else to do, you may leave now." Looking at the many quasi-saints still outside the formation, Mosquito Daoist spoke casually, not worried that they might change their minds. How could they possibly know that he had a backup plan?

Hearing Mosquito Taoist's order to leave, no one departed. With only the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, everyone wanted to see how the Three Pure Ones and the others would choose. They were all speechless at his shamelessness; he hadn't been harmed at all, yet one of them had been killed.

He now claims to be emotionally traumatized; only he could do something so shameless.

Jieyin and Zhunti were also shocked by the other party's words. In their hearts, they were already shameless enough, but now it seemed that they were still no match for the other party. At the same time, they were glad that they had withdrawn in time.

Within the formation, dozens of people were unaware of their location. Several attempted to communicate telepathically, but their efforts were like throwing mud into the ocean, receiving no response whatsoever.

Tongtian was quite knowledgeable about formations, and although he could break this formation himself, it would take time. Beiming had only given them the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, presumably because he was afraid they would find a way to break the formation, which left him quite helpless.

The time it takes for an incense stick to burn is fleeting. At this moment, everyone within the formation heard the voice of the Mosquito Taoist, as if it were right next to their ears. "Everyone, those who have made up their minds can send a message. Although you cannot receive messages from each other, I will know."

Upon hearing Mosquito Taoist's words, many people in the room immediately sent out messages.

"Fellow Daoist Beiming, I do not possess any top-grade innate spiritual treasures. My most valuable possession is only an acquired spiritual root. Would that be acceptable to you?"

The speaker was a mid-stage Quasi-Saint, and the first to send a message. Seeing that he was the only one released, he was genuinely afraid the other party wouldn't agree and might kill him. With no help outside, the other party had the final say, so he had no choice but to become respectful.

Seeing that the quasi-saint cultivator was holding a 'celestial spirit mushroom', the Mosquito Daoist was speechless. What use was this to him? It was probably only useful for alchemy. However, his alchemy skills were not yet up to par, so it was better than nothing.

After thinking for a moment, he said, "Okay, but you must swear an oath to Heaven that you will not hold a grudge about what happened today."

The reason for all this trouble is that I'm afraid he might cause me trouble in the future. Although I'm not afraid of him, I'm always worried about the possibility of something going wrong. Besides, he has the cultivation of a quasi-saint. If he really sets a trap for me, I might end up getting caught off guard.

After the man finished making his oath, Mosquito Daoist released everyone one by one. However, most of them couldn't produce any high-grade innate spiritual treasures. Mosquito Daoist had considered that others couldn't possibly be as wealthy as he was, but he hadn't expected there to be so many impoverished quasi-saints, which left him quite helpless.

Among these people, some only offered acquired spiritual items, or low-grade and mid-grade innate spiritual treasures; he received very few high-grade innate spiritual treasures. He only allowed them to leave after they swore an oath to the Heavenly Dao. Those who left were too ashamed to stay any longer and immediately flew away after the Mosquito Daoist agreed.

Seeing that several people in the formation had not yet sent messages, Mosquito Daoist paid closer attention. Unexpectedly, besides the Three Pure Ones, there was another person among them, who, according to the formation, possessed the cultivation of a late-stage Quasi-Saint. Seeing that the other person showed no sign of panic, Mosquito Daoist was quite surprised.

After thinking it over, I decided to release Sanqing first and then see what unique qualities this person has.

Yuanshi suddenly felt a spatial fluctuation within the formation. Upon closer inspection, he found himself outside the formation. He hadn't expected the other party to release him voluntarily, but he immediately summoned the Pangu Banner and said to Beiming, "Beiming, if you have the ability, then show your true skills and fight. Why resort to these underhanded tricks?"

Mosquito Taoist looked at the other party with some amusement. "Why didn't you say this before? Perhaps you thought you could take me down just because you outnumbered me?" he thought. But he wouldn't call him out on it, and said, "Primordial, we've known each other for some time now. If you want to fight, why should I fear you?"

But let me make this clear: if you are defeated, it won't be as simple as just a top-grade innate spiritual treasure. I'll even snatch the Primordial Purple Qi. You'd better think carefully before you decide.”

Mosquito Daoist's words were merely meant to scare Yuanshi. He knew that even if he ultimately obtained the Primordial Purple Qi, Hongjun would not agree. Yuanshi's Primordial Purple Qi was unlike Hongyun's, which Hongjun had solemnly bestowed upon him. As for Hongyun, to put it bluntly, it was something the other party used to trick him.

Upon hearing this, Yuanshi frowned. He knew his current strength was inferior to Beiming's. Although he was unwilling to have taken out a top-grade innate spiritual treasure for no reason, it wasn't worth gambling with the Primordial Purple Qi. In the end, he had no choice but to take out the spiritual treasure. Without waiting for Laozi and the others to come out, he snorted coldly and flew towards Kunlun Mountain.

He was certain that Laozi and Tongtian wouldn't have any other choice, even if Mosquito Daoist wouldn't dare kill them. They might still try to steal other things, and he didn't want to see that happen. As for going back on his word? Yuanshi hadn't considered it. At their level, very few people would go back on their word.

As for the Three Pure Ones, Mosquito Taoist had no intention of making them swear any oaths. In his view, even if the three of them put aside what happened today, they would never let go of the losses they had suffered before, and they would still scheme against him when the time came.

After Yuanshi left, Mosquito Daoist released Laozi and Tongtian again. Just as Yuanshi had expected, both of them took out a top-grade innate spiritual treasure. However, the two of them left with very unfriendly looks in their eyes.

The powerful figures watching from the sidelines were filled with envy and jealousy as they saw that Mosquito Daoist had acquired so many treasures in such a short time.

Kunpeng, in particular, thought about the top-grade innate spiritual treasure he had worked so hard to obtain. Now, it seemed to be nothing in the eyes of others, and in the end, it was even blasted to pieces by a single strike. He had no more interest in watching and was the first to fly away.

Seeing that the Three Pure Ones had all given in, the crowd said nothing more and all chose to leave.

In their minds, no matter how many treasures they possessed, they weren't truly theirs, so it was best to keep them out of sight. As for the quasi-saint cultivator in the formation, they no longer cared about him. Besides, hadn't they seen enough quasi-saints today?

However, before leaving, he still greeted Mosquito Daoist. Nowadays, everyone knows that the power of the Blood Sea is not as simple as it seems on the surface. Naturally, he wanted to maintain a good relationship with him, because he might need his help someday.

Seeing that everyone had left, Mosquito Daoist instructed Styx to immediately dismantle the formation. The only person remaining in the formation then appeared before the two.

"I don't know how to call you a friend?"
