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

Chapter 7: Seeking Treasures in the Sea of Blood

"Late Stage of Returning to Void? His cultivation is passable!"

The executioner of the Witch Clan nodded and said, "Hurry up, there are still several Myriad Monsters that haven't been executed in Heavenly Prison. If the murderous aura from the Sea of Corpses and Blood reaches Lingxiao Hall, the responsibility of the Clear Sky Monitor will be significant!"

"The subordinates will do their best to clean up!" Xia Yi replied respectfully.

When the immortals from the Clear Sky Monitor arrived earlier, they had already brought tools to clean up the Demon Execution Platform.

Xia Yi took out a net-shaped Law Treasure, which was filthy and seemed to have many coagulated blood stains on it.

This was a corpse retrieval net, specifically used to retrieve bodies.

He then threw it into the air, and the corpse retrieval net instantly expanded, covering a large area of the Sea of Blood.

Before long, a large number of bodies were retrieved, most of which were not human. There were wolves, insects, tigers, deer, foxes, elephants, unicorns, wild boars, and divine mastiffs, all of them dismembered and in a pitiful state.

The retrieved bodies were placed in a bronze coffin.

Although the coffin was only the size of a palm, its internal space was extremely large, capable of accommodating hundreds of thousands of corpses.

While working, Xia Yi also saw many colleagues from the Clear Sky Monitor, most of whom were at the Late Stage of Returning to Void.

After all, this was the Demon Execution Platform, and those with lower cultivation couldn't withstand the overwhelming killing intent and blood aura here. Even immortals would eventually be affected by the killing intent if they stayed here for a long time, sinking into endless slaughter and unable to extricate themselves. The Witch Clan, on the other hand, didn't cultivate their Primordial Spirit or absorb spiritual energy. Instead, they cultivated by absorbing fierce and malevolent qi into their bodies. Their innate nature was fierce and malevolent, making them suitable for this position!

Xia Yi understood this in his heart.

Some of the Monster Race beings were so large that the corpse retrieval net couldn't handle them, so they had to use the Demon Binding Lock.

He chanted an incantation, and a three-zhang-long, thumb-thick, golden rope appeared in the void, binding towards a lion that was larger than a palace.

This lion had already crossed three Heavenly Tribulations and was undeniably powerful.

But under the effect of the Demon Binding Lock, its body rapidly shrank, becoming the size of an ordinary cow or sheep, and was then placed into the bronze coffin.

"Fellow Daoist, you seem unfamiliar. Are you a new member of the Clear Sky Monitor?"

The speaker was an unremarkable old man in his fifties or sixties, with a small and thin stature and a goatee under his chin.

"I just joined the Clear Sky Monitor less than a month ago. It's normal for you not to recognize me," Xia Yi replied, not stopping his work. With a flick of his right hand, he caught a large number of bodies in the net.

"I see. Fellow Daoist, your aura is cold and gloomy. It seems that you cultivate a sinister cultivation method?" the old man with the goatee asked curiously.

"Yes, I was originally a third-generation disciple of the Corpse Sect. Later, I was sent to Heavenly Prison. Because I didn't commit any sins and had some merits, I was released by Lord Changgeng and given the Starry Spirit Gathering Pill, and then introduced into the Clear Sky Monitor," Xia Yi explained, deliberately revealing his relationship with Tai Bai Jin Xing.

"So Fellow Daoist has this connection with Lord Changgeng!"

The old man with the goatee looked at Xia Yi with obvious eagerness in his eyes.

After a conversation, Xia Yi learned that this old man with the goatee was named Qingyangzi, originally a goat, and had the strength of crossing the Heavenly Tribulation twice.

According to tradition, it is difficult for a Monster Race outsider to hold a position in the Heavenly Court.

However, this goat was born in the Eastern Polar Plain of the twentieth heaven of the Heavenly Court and is owned by the Heavenly Court itself, so it has this opportunity to join the Heavenly Court's establishment.

Usually, cleaning the idle Heavenly Palace for thirty-three days is extremely carefree.

"I wondered why Xia Brother had the opportunity to clean the Demon-Slaying Platform. It turns out to be related to Lord Changgeng." Xia Yi's heart moved and asked, "Oh? Brother, why do you say that?"

"True Martial Lingying Yousheng True Monarch and I went down to the mortal realm together to eliminate eight Great Demon sects, ten Monster Kings, evil demons, and monsters, totaling nearly one hundred thousand. Although most of the Law Treasures in their hands were confiscated, there are still quite a few left. Take a look!" Qingyangzi conjured a big hand and fished out a pitch-black big knife from the blood sea below. It was three feet long and emitted a chilling cold light.

"Is this knife made of Moyin Mingtie?" Xia Yi's heart trembled. Moyin Mingtie is a highly precious artifact refining material that comes from the Yin Mountain in the underworld. With the help of demonic techniques, it can easily break through the protective aura of cultivators in the Profound Realm.

"This knife was obviously forged by a powerful demonic immortal. It is also mixed with various poisons, but it doesn't match my own Primordial Spirit, so I'm giving it to Xia Brother!" Qingyangzi tossed the Mingtie knife over.

Xia Yi caught it and quickly said, "Thank you, Brother!"

He swung the knife, and the cold light was sharp. It was indeed a rare demonic weapon.

In the following time, Xia Yi collected corpses while searching for treasures in the blood sea.

He found quite a few good things.

Most of them were weapons used by the Monster Race.

Many of these weapons were made of immortal gold, such as Dragon Pattern Golden Steel, Qingming Stone, Earth Flame Profound Iron, Scarlet Refining Steel, and Magnetic Iron.

These monsters didn't know Universal Truth or any artifact refining techniques. They usually found a good piece of ore and hastily refined it with some talismans.

If these weapons were melted down and recast, they could be refined into excellent immortal swords or other Law Treasures.

Xia Yi continued to cast his net and pulled up another pile of corpses.

But this time, the corpses were not monsters, but human bodies, mostly from unorthodox cultivators.

His eyes were sharp and he noticed a flickering black light inside a headless corpse.

Many cultivators would set up a small space in their Violet Palace or other body apertures, using a mustard seed-sized formation to store treasures.

The biggest advantage of doing this was that it was difficult for others to snatch the treasures unless they killed themselves.

Why were there so many Law Treasures in the blood sea of the Demon-Slaying Platform?

It was because after these demons died, their mustard seed spaces lost support and shattered, causing the treasures inside to fall out.

The corpse in front of him had obviously just been executed, and the mustard seed space was on the verge of shattering.

With a thought, Xia Yi waved his right hand, and a black long banner flew out from the mustard seed space of the corpse.

Countless fierce and terrifying faces appeared on the long banner, emitting a mournful wail from time to time.

"It seems to be the Unseen Yanmo Banner!" he exclaimed in surprise. This was a top-notch Asura technique, far more advanced than his own Xuan Yin Gathering Soul Banner. If he refined it to a deeper level, he could condense it into an Unseen Yanmo.

However, the Unseen Yanmo Banner in his hand was still rough and far from complete.

In addition to the banner, there were also some pills and a few bamboo slips.

Qingyangzi, not far away, kindly reminded him, "After all, the Heavenly Court is the number one place in the Three Realms. The heavenly gods and officials inside mostly cultivate orthodox methods. Xia Brother should change his cultivation technique as soon as possible and try not to use demonic Law Weapons to avoid tarnishing the splendor of the Heavenly Palace and incurring the wrath of the Emperor!"
