I'm In Heaven, I Just Want To Work Overtime

Chapter 31: Hearing about the Grand Marshal's Expedition to the North Sea (Tuesday, seeking updates!)

"It really is a quasi-demon god!" Xia Yi's expression turned serious.

The ancient beast in the distance is a powerful being at the level of Great Principal Golden Immortal. With one proof, it is eternally proven, transcending the river of time, truly reaching the realm where all things decay but it remains immortal, and the heavens and earth perish but it remains indestructible.

Unless the calamity of heaven and earth arrives.

The flesh and blood of this existence's body has been worn away over the long years, leaving only bones that endure forever. It should have cultivated to the level of Taiyi Golden Immortal.

Xia Yi's second primordial spirit cautiously approached and was about to pull out that unremarkable wooden arrow.

"Crack!"

Only a faint sound was heard, and instantly an overwhelming killing intent burst forth from the tip of the arrow.

"What a terrifying wooden arrow! Even after millions of years, it still retains an undying killing intent. It seems that the archer has reached the realm of Great Principle!"

Xia Yi couldn't help but take a few steps back. If it weren't for the treasures like the "Apricot Yellow Flag" protecting his Hongmeng small world, this incarnation of his would have long been shattered into countless pieces.

The one who could kill such a powerful Monster Race expert in the presence of the ancient beast must naturally be the Witch Clan from back then.

And among the Witch Clan, the one skilled in archery was only the great witch Hou Yi.

The fuse of the final battle between the witch and the demon back then was when the ten sons of the Eastern Emperor secretly left the Sun Star Fusang and played in the mortal world, causing innocent beings to suffer, rivers to dry up, mountains to crumble, and all races to suffer.

Due to the Eastern Emperor's light punishment, it led to the dissatisfaction of the great witch Kuafu, who pursued the sun, and the ten sons of the Eastern Emperor burned Kuafu.

The great witch Hou Yi, upon hearing this, became furious. He used the power of his tribe and various witchcraft to shoot and kill nine golden crows, which then triggered that catastrophic calamity.

"Lord Tianwei, how should we handle these remains?"

A Sweeping Immortal Official stepped forward and asked.

Xia Yi said indifferently, "It's just an ancient corpse, the same as those palace ruins. Dump it into the Chaos Pool!"

The Chaos Pool is located in the Taiyutian, not far from the Heavenly Prison. Inside, chaos reigns, with earth, wind, water, and fire raging, roaring and surging like boiling porridge, capable of annihilating all things in the world.

All the waste and garbage of the Heavenly Court are dumped into the Chaos Pool.

Including the bodies and blood of the numerous Myriad Monsters that were beheaded on the Demon-Slaying Platform before.

Then, Xia Yi waved his hand and collected the bones of the quasi-demon god in front of him.

The bones of a Taiyi Golden Immortal are an excellent material for refining the White Bone Ghost Banner.

The White Bone Ghost Banner obtained from the Giant Spirit God before was made by a powerful demon immortal using the bones of several Celestial Immortal-level monsters.

If the bones in front of him were used to refine the White Bone Ghost Banner, the power would be unimaginable.

Another month passed, and all the remnants of the Demon Court in the thirty-third heaven were completely cleared.

Just as Xia Yi was about to go to the Qingtian Prison to report, he saw Tianpeng rushing out with a group of Heavenly Soldiers, his expression somewhat serious.

Before Xia Yi could speak, he heard Tianpeng say, "You came just in time. A great battle is about to take place in the North Sea of the mortal realm. I'm afraid the Qingtian Prison needs to clean up the mess. You should come along and lend a hand."

"Understood!"

Although Xia Yi was a bit puzzled, he didn't ask further and followed the team in flight.

After leaving the Southern Gate, Tianpeng fumbled around in his armor for a while, then threw something into the air. It swayed in the wind and suddenly a warship about a thousand zhang long appeared.

The warship was made entirely of green jade and was covered in runes, with banners fluttering.

"The flying ship of the Qingtian Prison isn't meant for people to sit on? It feels more like a warship of the Silver River Navy."

Tianpeng chuckled and then beckoned everyone to enter.

Heavenly World is far away from Earth Immortal, separated by the vast Nine Heavens Gale Layer and the Qian Heaven Thunder and Fire Layer.

The green jade-colored warship descended all the way down and arrived at the Gale Phoenix Layer.

There, fierce winds howled, mixed with black ice the size of houses, colliding in the wind with a thunderous roar, shattering into countless pieces.

A faint blue light shield enveloped the warship, blocking all the Gale Phoenix Black Ice.

Even so, the Heavenly Soldiers on the warship were still trembling with fear.

After an unknown amount of time, the scene before them changed again. Around the warship, flames flickered, with countless red beads flying about in a chaotic manner. If they collided with each other, they would immediately explode with tremendous power, releasing endless flames.

"The Nine Heavens Gale freezes stones into powder and grinds steel into slag. The Qian Heaven Thunder and Fire are even more fierce. Only powerful Earth Immortals can safely pass through and come to Heavenly World."

Looking at the terrifying scene before him, Xia Yi couldn't help but be amazed.

Tian Peng, on the other hand, was accustomed to this. He took a sip of immortal wine and then spoke, "Do you know the main purpose of the Qing Tianjian?"

"Isn't it to clean the Heavenly Court?" Xia Yi was a little puzzled. He still had some understanding of the operation of the Qing Tianjian. After all, he had cleaned the Heavenly Prison, swept the Execution Platform, and recently cleared the remnants of the Demon Court. He could be considered a "capable official."

"If it's just cleaning, why would His Majesty confer the title of Heavenly Supervisor to Zhou Tianzheng? You should know that the supervisors of the Imperial Horse Bureau, the Heavenly Garment Bureau, and the Immortal Wine Bureau are all insignificant divine positions, without even a rank." Tian Peng snorted coldly.

Xia Yi let out a soft sound of surprise, realizing that it was indeed the case.

If it was just cleaning, then the importance of the Imperial Horse Bureau and the Heavenly Garment Bureau would be above that of the Qing Tianjian.

But these institutions didn't have a single true god presiding over them.

"I don't understand. Please enlighten me, Lord Star."

"In fact, the Qing Tianjian not only cleans the Heavenly Court, but also cleans the Three Realms!" Tian Peng said.

"Clean the Three Realms?" Xia Yi was a little confused. What was there to clean in the Three Realms? Could it be that they were going to eliminate the troublesome demons and monsters?

But with the strength of the Qing Tianjian, it was no different from sending vegetables.

"Do you know the difference between the current Three Realms and the ancient Primordial Era?" Xia Yi thought for a moment and then said, "In the ancient Primordial Era, the Boundless Continent had no end, the seas had no boundaries, it was boundless. But since the battle between the witches and the demons, the Boundless Continent was shattered, and the current Three Realms are just a larger piece of those fragments."

"What you said is correct!"

Tian Peng nodded and continued, "Because of this, the current Three Realms are very fragile. Profound Immortals can easily break through the space. If a large-scale battle between immortals, demons, and monsters were to erupt, it would definitely cause significant damage to the Three Realms.

Therefore, the main purpose of the Qing Tianjian is to clean up the battlefields of immortals, demons, and monsters and repair the damaged space."

"So it's like cleaning the floor!" Xia Yi suddenly realized, but he only said it to himself in his mind and didn't dare to say it out loud.

"Lord Star, do you know about the great battle in the North Sea? Could it be related to the demon master in the depths of the North Sea?"

"No, it's the Grand Preceptor of the Great Shang Dynasty, Wen Zhong, who is leading an expedition to the North Sea, suppressing monsters and eliminating demons, and quelling rebellions!" Tian Peng shook his head.

"Wen Taishi pacifies the North Sea!"

Xia Yi's heart trembled. It seemed that the battle to confer godhood had slowly begun, and it was likely that the various saints had already made their own plans behind the scenes.

But he was also curious and asked, "Although Wen Zhong, the Grand Preceptor of the Great Shang Dynasty, is a disciple of the Jiejiao, he only commands a mortal army. It shouldn't cause much of a stir, right?"

You should know that when True Martial, the Blessed Saint, led a hundred thousand Heavenly Soldiers to the mortal realm to exterminate demons, it didn't even alarm the Qing Tianjian to come and clean up the aftermath.

The decision to advance to the next round will be made on Tuesday. Dear readers, please don't raise any pets.
