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

Chapter 87: Celestial Beast Transformation

"What?"

Empress Shi Ji was furious. How dare this person curse her to be the first to die in the calamity of becoming a god? She wanted him dead, even if it meant offending the Tenth Prince.

She immediately took out a white cloth, about ten acres in size, releasing countless strands of radiant light, sparkling and shining. It was her signature Law Treasure, the Eight Trigrams Dragon Whisker Cloth.

Xia Yi said, "Slow down, slow down. Is it possible that I am speaking nonsense? Just reveal the three flowers on top of your head, and you will see for yourself."

Empress Shi Ji hesitated slightly, but still followed his instructions.

Soon, a white mist rose from the top of her head, with three golden flowers about a foot long growing on it.

These three flowers represented the essence, energy, and spirit of a cultivator, the foundation of a Golden Immortal.

However, the three flowers on Empress Shi Ji's head were withered and drooping, surrounded by hundreds of strands of black qi.

This black qi was the karma calamity qi.

"How is this possible? Why didn't I notice anything?"

Empress Shi Ji was shocked. She now knew that she was burdened with calamity, and could be struck by calamity at any moment.

"Fellow Daoist, your True Spirit has been obscured by the force of karma, causing the calamity to descend without your awareness. No matter how high your Divine Ability or cultivation level is, you are nothing more than a lingering soul in a calamity!" Xia Yi said calmly.

The longer he practiced the "Hongmeng Calamity Scripture," the more he realized its terrifying nature.

Calamity, a nightmare that loomed over every immortal's head.

Even a Great Principal Golden Immortal would have concerns about falling under the weight of calamity.

Only a Saint could withstand Myriad Tribulations, remaining eternal and indestructible.

Ordinary immortals feared calamity, but practicing the "Hongmeng Calamity Scripture" meant getting close to calamity, understanding calamity, manipulating calamity, and ultimately mastering calamity.

However, this process was extremely dangerous, and one wrong move could lead to the destruction of one's divine abilities.

Just think of the ancient calamity star, dominating the primordial chaos, causing countless primordial powerhouses to tremble.

In the end, it attempted to control the Witch Demon Calamity, but was surrounded and killed by numerous witch gods and great witches.

If Xia Yi didn't have the system providing him with merit points every month, and if he didn't have the "Three Corpse Incarnation" causing trouble, he wouldn't dare to practice such a sinister technique.

"Fellow Daoist, save me!"

Empress Shi Ji quickly bowed in salute.

She was truly afraid.

Under the weight of calamity, she could either end up on the Conferred Divinity List, forever enslaved by the Heavenly Court, or be completely annihilated.

When the Witch Demon Calamity erupted, she had just completed her transformation and achieved the Immortal Dao.

Therefore, she witnessed the deaths of countless Great Principal Golden Immortals, witch gods, and great witches.

There were countless Monster Kings at the Golden Immortal level, like insignificant dust.

Now, the calamity of sealing the gods is about to descend. She was originally following the instructions of her master, the Heavenly Master Tongtian, to recite the "Yellow Court" and comprehend the Great Dao in the Cave Mansion.

However, for some reason, she was tempted by the Azure Cloud Boy by her side and developed greed, which led her to leave the Cave Mansion to seize treasures.

Xia Yi raised her hand and a golden cloud of light flew out.

Goddess Shiji took it and exclaimed excitedly, "This is... merit!"

Merit is extremely important for immortals. It can enhance one's cultivation, strengthen the physical body, refine the Primordial Spirit, and greatly increase one's luck, bringing blessings and resolving many calamities.

However, obtaining merit is not an easy task.

For ordinary immortals, they can obtain human merit by benefiting the human race.

But for Golden Immortals like them, if they stay among humans for too long, they will often be affected by worldly karma and the merit they obtain will be too little, resulting in more harm than good.

Only when the human realm undergoes a change of dynasty and they participate in it to assist in the operation of the human realm can they obtain great merit.

For example, in ancient times, Guangchengzi manifested as the teacher of Xuanyuan, helping the Yellow Emperor unify the human realm, obtaining great merit, and proving the Great Principle, promoting the flourishing of the teachings.

Later, Xia Jie followed the teachings of the Asura Sect, indulging in luxury and debauchery, and ruling with incompetence.

Cheng Tang, with the help of the Phoenix Clan and the disciples of the Jie Sect, overthrew the Xia Dynasty and established the Great Shang Dynasty.

As a result, the Jie Sect gained great merit, their luck soared, and several Great Principles were born.

Goddess Shiji is only a consummate Golden Immortal, a half-step Taiyi existence, and is far from being able to participate in the operation of the human realm.

Although this amount of merit is not much, it can temporarily delay the erosion of calamity qi.

"Fellow Daoist, your righteousness is admirable!"

Goddess Shiji solemnly bowed.

As the calamity of sealing the gods approaches, merit is the most scarce thing to obtain.

Even for master and disciple, or father and son, it is very difficult to achieve such a level.

"Although my cultivation is not high, I am skilled in deducing heavenly secrets. Within ten years, you will not encounter Taiyi. However, under the transformation of the Heavenly Dao, it is beyond human power to defy it. I will give you a Law Treasure as a gift, which may help you resolve your calamities!"

After speaking, Xia Yi raised her hand again, and a demonic banner flew out, exuding a sinister aura. It was clearly a Demon Dao Law Weapon.

Goddess Shiji took it and explored it with her divine sense, revealing a look of fear.

Looking at Xia Yi, a kind of indescribable awe arose in her eyes.

"Fellow Daoist, in the future calamities, I will do my best to assist you!"

After saying that, Goddess Shiji took the demonic banner and returned to Skull Mountain.

Three thousand Asura soldiers were busy incorporating the monsters of Fengmo Mountain.

At this moment, Huang Feng had already transformed into his original form, a yellow-furred marten, the size of a water buffalo, shining with golden light as if cast from gold. There was a large hole in his chest, pierced by the Sun-piercing Arrow.

Xia Yi made a gesture with one hand, and a Yuan Dan the size of a dragon's eye flew out of the corpse, resembling gravel cast from a diamond.

Huang Feng, the Monster King, could stir up the Samadhi Divine Wind, relying entirely on this Yuan Dan.

If Xia Yi nurtured it with her own Yuan Ling for thirty-six years, she could also unleash this evil wind.

At this point, the vast Fengmo Mountain belonged to the Myriad Tribulations Sect.

There are only two immortal mountains, Xuehong Mountain and Wuling Mountain, that have not been reclaimed.

Xuehong Mountain is home to the Seven Kill Demon Palace, while Wuling Mountain is ruled by the Buddha-Demon Jiumo.

Xia Yi was able to defeat the surrounding Monster Kings purely relying on the three thousand Asura warriors and Law Treasures.

But these two require cultivation and Law Treasures, and there are countless demon soldiers and immortals under their command.

They are not easy opponents.

"The salary is still too low..."

Xia Yi sighed.

Currently, he only has about 180,000 merit points per year.

As for the Town Immortal-Demon General, he earns about 4,000 merit points per month, and with all the benefits added up for a year, it's only about 60,000.

In other words, Xia Yi can only obtain about 240,000 to 250,000 merit points per year.

For Xia Yi, this amount of merit points is still too little.

Moreover, this is still during the Conferment of Gods Cataclysm.

If he doesn't have enough merit to protect himself, he wouldn't dare to cause trouble during the Conferment of Gods Cataclysm.

The Ancient Calamity Star is a warning.

Although the position of the Heavenly Court God is vacant, the positions of the main gods are already decided, with one position for each person.

Xia Yi being able to become a scapegoat is already quite lucky.

Currently, there are only two places that can rival the position of the Heavenly Court God.

One is the disciples of the Three Teachings.

It is impossible for the second generation disciples.

Even the Saint of the Jiejiao Sect, the lowest standard for accepting disciples now is the Golden Immortal level.

Xia Yi can only hope to become a third generation disciple.

The status of a third generation disciple of the Chanjiao and Jiejiao Sects is higher than that of an ordinary main god.

After the Conferment of Gods, they can also join the Heavenly Court and become main gods like the Zhoutian Star Lords.

The second place is the officials of the Shang Dynasty.

Now that the human world is prospering and the immortals and gods are avoiding the world, the humans are living above and the heavens are below.

Although the Great Shang Dynasty is declining, it is still the orthodox human world.

Being a general or something similar in the dynasty is not inferior to being an ordinary main god in the Heavenly Court.

Extreme Void Starry Sky.

Xia Yi's main body is still controlling the Calamity Star, cleaning up the fragments of ancient stars.

In the distance, a star with a radius of billions of miles emits boundless starlight. Even immortals would feel fear upon seeing it.

Xia Yi sat cross-legged on the altar, with dozens of large and small banners inserted into the ground, most of which had no banners and only a pole.

Only the one in front has a banner.

Boom...

Among the ancient stars, a force the size of several acres was pulled down by Xia Yi using a seal technique and absorbed by the banner in front of him.

This banner was actually refined entirely from the power of the ancient stars. As the starlight gathered more and more, the thin banner gradually darkened, as if a demon god was emerging from it.

It's unclear how long it took, but the banner in front of him finally took shape, with an overall sky-blue color, soft and delicate.

Then, a mysterious light burst out from the top of Xia Yi's head and entered the Celestial Beast-shaped banner in front of him.

Before long, the banner emitted a brilliant blue light and transformed into a young man.

However, this young man had a cold complexion, revealing a hint of demonic aura.

"I finally refined this Celestial Beast-shaped banner!"

Xia Yi sighed, looking somewhat exhausted.

This is one of the Supreme Divine Abilities in the "Celestial Beast Great Method".

By using the power of the stars in the heavens, one can evolve a banner and refine the supreme Celestial Beast form.

Ordinary Great Monsters would need to gather the power of the stars for tens of thousands of years to refine this Celestial Beast-shaped banner.

But Xia Yi's main body cleans up the Extreme Void Starry Sky.

Sometimes, he is only a million miles away from those ancient stars.

The power of the stars there is unbelievably rich.

Absorbing it for a day is equivalent to ten years of hard work for cultivators in the mortal and immortal realms, or even more.

So it took him more than a year to refine this Celestial Beast-shaped banner.

However, it is still only a preliminary condensation of the Celestial Beast form, far from the highest Divine Ability, the Celestial Beast Immortal Body.

The Celestial Beast Immortal Body is probably equivalent to the fourth or fifth level of the Nine Revolutions Profound Art, not to be taken lightly.

Once refined, it will be outstanding among the third generation disciples of the Chanjiao and Jiejiao Sects, surpassing most of the second generation disciples.

As for the mysterious light, it is a trace of obsession that was cut out, used to control the Celestial Beast form.

"Brother, I'm going!"

When the starlight of the Calamity Star reached the thirty-third heaven, the Celestial Beast form turned into a beam of starlight and disappeared.

Xia Yi's main body continued to refine the Celestial Beast-shaped banner in front of him and create various forms.

After descending to the mortal realm, the Celestial Beast form headed straight for the Great Shang Dynasty.

The current Great Shang Dynasty is filled with the karma of the mortal world, with countless calamities swirling within it.

Obviously, it is already the time for the dynasty to change.

Martial King's attack on the Shang Dynasty is the trend of the mortal world and cannot be reversed.

Xia Yi is currently only in the Celestial Immortal Realm, and he doesn't have any hope of changing the situation of the Conferment of Gods.

He can only make some minor changes and cultivate the "Hongmeng Calamity Sutra".

After flying for a long time, he saw several monks chasing after a female immortal, uttering obscene words.
