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

Chapter 70: The Heavenly Star Banner

After flying for a long time, Xia Yi discovered a collapsed building. It seemed to be an ancient palace, decayed and ruined by the erosion of endless years.

In the nearby ruins, half of a snow-white skull was exposed. It was unknown which race it belonged to or how many years it had existed. The bone was no longer smooth and had many rough cracks.

Clearly, this was an ancient Great Monster of the Taiyi Golden Immortal level.

What was surprising was that there was a thumb-sized round hole on its forehead, as if it had been pierced by an arrow. The area around the hole was very smooth.

"Could this Great Monster have died from being shot by the Sun-piercing Arrow?" Xia Yi's expression was somewhat strange.

Continuing forward, a ten-acre golden altar appeared in front of him. On the altar stood a giant green stone tablet.

Two huge ancient characters were clearly visible on it, each one hundreds of zhang tall. They were sharp and powerful, exuding a majestic aura, like two true dragons coiling around each other.

天灾 (Tiān zāi)!

In ancient times, the Broom Star was not called the Broom Star, but rather the Disaster Star.

Moreover, that Disaster God was ranked in the top thirty among the 365 gods and was responsible for bringing calamities to the creatures of the Primordial Continent.

During the War of Witches and Monsters, the Disaster God specifically caused disasters for the Witch Clan, causing quite a bit of trouble for them at the time.

Xia Yi immediately used his mana to refine the Town Star Stone Tablet, emitting a "crackling" sound, refining the restrictions within it.

Fortunately, after countless years of erosion, these divine restrictions had long lost their original power. In just three or four hours, he was able to refine the Town Star Stone Tablet.

He felt as if he had the entire starry sky in his grasp, just like the World of Immortals, merging with the consciousness of the world and becoming an "incarnation of the Heavenly Dao."

A vast and boundless power surged into his body, causing his aura to rise steadily.

Golden Immortal!

On this Broom Star, he could exert the combat power of a Golden Immortal!

Of course, it was limited to this place. Once he left the Broom Star, he would revert back to his original form, with only the cultivation level of an early-stage Celestial Immortal.

After refining the Town Star Stone Tablet, he also understood some ancient secrets.

Back then, the ancient Disaster Star was killed by the joint efforts of the Witch and Monster Clans. The innate calamity qi within its body merged with a star from the Primordial Heavenly World, evolving into the Broom Star.

Later, during the final battle between the Witch and Monster Clans, the Primordial Heavenly World shattered, and many ancient stars also fragmented.

The Broom Star also suffered calamity, breaking into pieces. The current Broom Star was just the largest fragment from back then, becoming the bottom of the Heavenly Starry Sky.

"Let's get to work!"

Xia Yi sighed lightly and pointed with one hand, a clear light shining on the Town Star Divine Tablet.

The giant stone tablet shook violently, and soon, a black light flew out from it and landed in his hand.

It was a long banner, about three feet long, with a crow depicted on its surface, flapping its wings and flying high, vivid and lifelike.

This was the Heavenly Star Banner.

When Donghuang Taiyi ruled over the Monster Court, he used the Chaos Bell to study the laws of the Hongmeng stars' movements and comprehended the Great Heavenly Star Formation.

To set up this formation, it required the refinement of 365 Innate Spirit Treasures to create the Great Heavenly Star Banner, corresponding to the 365 main stars in the sky. It also required the refinement of 14,800 Acquired Spiritual Treasures to create the Small Heavenly Star Banner, corresponding to the 14,800 secondary stars.

With the power of the countless Monster Race, each Monster God controlling a star, an unparalleled Heavenly Star Formation could be formed.

Later, the chaos shattered, and the Dao Ancestor rebuilt the Heavenly Court, using the Acquired Spiritual Treasure to refine the Zhoutian Star Banner.

Therefore, even if the Heavenly Court today can control the Zhoutian stars after the enfeoffment of gods, it can only form a postnatal star formation, far from comparing to the ancient era.

Xia Yi held the Zhoutian Star Banner in his hand and gently waved it. The huge broom stars trembled, and a massive black hole appeared in the sky, constantly devouring the nearby star fragments and even light.

The current broom stars have long lost the glory of the ancient era's celestial disaster stars. Although they are mainly responsible for clearing and controlling disasters, they mostly do the work of cleaning.

When the Heavenly World shattered in the ancient times, the human realm turned into countless fragments, scattered in the Extreme Void Starry Sky.

Now that the Zhoutian Divine God is about to return, Xia Yi must clean up the chaotic star fragments in this starry sky.

This is also why the Heavenly God has been urging him repeatedly.

After all, the enfeoffment and calamity of gods are about to begin.

When Tianpeng served as the broom star before, he was lazy and didn't want to clean up the Extreme Void Starry Sky, so he didn't even refine the Town Star Stele.

Naturally, the task fell on Xia Yi's shoulders.

In the distance, a meteorite with a radius of thousands of miles hovered in the void.

Then the broom star whizzed past, and the huge suction generated by the black hole directly captured and devoured it.

If he hadn't refined the entire star and temporarily raised his strength to the level of a Golden Immortal, and then used the power of the Zhoutian Star Banner, he would not have the ability to clean up the Extreme Void Starry Sky.

Most of the other ancient stars, more than 360 of them, are stationary, after all, the gods have not yet returned, so they cannot make the stars move.

The broom star travels among many stars, sweeping countless fragments, resembling a janitor.

Of course, there are great benefits to working here.

In the Extreme Void Starry Sky, there is a rich essence of celestial bodies.

This essence of celestial bodies is even more precious than the acquired spiritual energy for cultivation. If the creatures in the mortal realm absorb enough essence from the stars, they will become demons.

Here, the power of the stars collected in one day is equivalent to the labor of the creatures in the mortal realm for a year or even several years.

"I probably won't be a broom star for long. Maybe I will be transferred to another position after the enfeoffment of gods..." Xia Yi said.

The Zhoutian Divine God enfeoffed by the Heavenly Court is all on the Conferred Divinity List after death.

Although they control the Zhoutian stars, the sun, moon, and stars, and are the gods of the Heavenly Court, they are also restricted by the Conferred Divinity List and cannot use the power of these stars for cultivation. It's like a eunuch serving the concubines in the palace, able to see but unable to use.

The power of the stars is endless. While Xia Yi cultivates, he also gathers starlight to refine Law Treasure weapons.

The broom star banner attracts countless star power, converging into a brilliant starlight, flowing like water. Xia Yi quickly embeds various prohibition spells into it.

After a long time, the condensed star power solidified into a sword, shining with starlight, radiant, crystal clear, like autumn water.

This star sword is what Xia Yi comprehended from the Zhoutian Star Banner. It is the standard weapon of the elite demon soldiers of the ancient Heavenly Court, with a fierce killing intent and extraordinary quality.

It will be useful for establishing a power and building a force in the future.

Time flies, and four years pass in a flash.

The Heavenly God and the Queen Mother issued an edict to inspect the mortal realm.

They will first inspect the four continents and four seas, and then enter the chaos to visit the Dao Ancestor in the Purple Palace.

"The Asura's attack on heaven is about to begin..." Xia Yi's face showed no joy or sorrow.
