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

Chapter 96: The Treasure Bowl

"No, this is not a High Grade Innate Spirit Treasure, but a Supreme Grade Innate Spirit Treasure!"

Xiao Sheng's heart trembled.

There are only a few Supreme Grade Innate Spirit Treasures in the world.

Generally speaking, it is already good for a quasi-saint to have one Supreme Grade Innate Spirit Treasure.

After all, besides the Three Pure Ones, Nuwa Saint, and the two Western Saints, they also use Supreme Grade Innate Spirit Treasures.

And now, he actually has two, making him as wealthy as a Saint!

"Could it be that my luck has turned around!"

Xiao Sheng seemed to see himself breaking through to become a Taiyi Golden Immortal.

In just a few thousand years, he would achieve the Great Principle and transcend the river of time, truly reaching the state of immortality while all things decay and the heavens and earth perish.

He would also become a disciple of the Primordial Heavenly Venerable, becoming one of the thirteen Golden Immortals of the Yu Xu, and even replacing Guang Chengzi to become a Jizhong Golden Immortal.

Later, he would rely on the Purple Qi Ruler and the Falling Treasure Money to cast off his attachments, severing the two corpses of good and evil.

Finally, he would sever himself, cutting off all three corpses, achieving the perfection of a quasi-saint...

Just as he was imagining himself attaining the Primordial Origin Infinite Great Principal Golden Immortal, a distant and vague voice suddenly came, calling out his name. Upon careful listening, he realized that it was indeed calling for him.

He suddenly felt a chill in his heart, as if a bucket of cold water had been poured on him, instantly sobering him up.

A Daoist flew over from not far away, wearing a Bagua robe and holding a fairy sword. He was shouting urgently, but Xiao Sheng couldn't make out what he was saying.

After listening carefully for a while, it seemed that he was concerned about him, as if he was in great danger.

"Brother Cao, you're making a big fuss. Even if I have two Supreme Grade Innate Spirit Treasures, I dare to contend with a Great Principal Golden Immortal!"

Xiao Sheng didn't take it seriously.

Inadvertently, he lowered his head and suddenly discovered that his whole body was enveloped in a pale flame, burning fiercely.

The three flowers on top of his head had withered, and the five qi in his chest had scattered.

This was a sign of demonic possession.

"How could this be?"

Xiao Sheng was shocked.

A Golden Immortal should have three flowers on top of their head and five qi converging, transcending the Three Realms and not being bound by the Five Elements. They should no longer be affected by the Three Calamities and Five Declines of the heavens and humans.

And because of their immortal nature, they would not easily perish.

How could he suddenly be possessed by a demon?

He released his mana, trying to extinguish the fire in his heart.

But it was like adding fuel to the fire, and the flames grew bigger and bigger.

Before long, he was burned to ashes.

On the ground, only a coin, a ruler, and a treasure bowl were left.

Xia Yi collected them all with one hand.

Inside his Primordial Spirit, he had accumulated millions of merits that had just been transferred from the system's storage space.

Where did Xiao Sheng get so many merits to be deducted? His luck instantly turned negative, and he immediately suffered the backlash of the Heavenly Dao, dying from demonic possession.

The treasure bowl was golden all over, engraved with countless innate Dao patterns, as if it could gather all the treasures in the world. In the center of the bowl's bottom, there were four innate characters engraved:

Attract Wealth and Treasure!

It turned out to be a Treasure Bowl, born together with the Falling Treasure Money, capable of gathering all the treasures in the world.

"How dare you kill my fellow Daoist!"

Cao Bao and Xiao Sheng had been cultivating together for countless years, always inseparable. How could he tolerate seeing his fellow Daoist being killed? He wielded his sword and rushed over.

"But it's also your destined calamity. You've been deceived and lost your sanity. I won't spare you!"

Xia Yi sacrificed the Hongmeng Measuring Heaven Ruler and directly smashed Cao Bao's brain, shattering his head like a watermelon.

A strand of True Spirit floated away, drifting towards an unknown destination.

Although the Primordial Heavenly Venerable was strict in accepting disciples, emphasizing their roots, aptitude, and comprehension, and not tolerating any deficiencies, he did not restrict the preaching of the Dao. Many virtuous immortals could come and listen.

After all, when the Three Pure Ones established the teachings, it was to enlighten the sentient beings in the world on behalf of Dao Ancestor Hongjun.

The number of disciples in the teachings was very small, and it was difficult for them to spread the teachings to the vast wilderness with only the Burning Lamp Daoist, Yunzhongzi, Nanji Xianweng, and the Twelve Golden Immortals.

Therefore, there was a close connection between the immortals who listened to the teachings outside the Yuxu Palace and the teachings themselves, which could be considered as peripheral forces.

Wuyi Mountain is not far from Kunlun Mountain, and Cao Bao and Xiao Sheng often went to listen to the teachings of the Saint and gained a lot of knowledge about the Yuxu Immortal Law. They could be considered as half-disciples of the teachings.

When the saints of the Zixiao Palace signed the Conferred Divinity List, Primordial Heavenly Venerable did not want his direct disciples to be on the list, so he wrote down the names of some immortals who listened to the teachings.

The names of Cao Bao and Xiao Sheng were among them.

Therefore, the two of them were destined to face calamity.

"Without the Lost Treasure of Wealth and the Seven Arrows of Nailing the Head, I wonder how the teachings plan to kill Zhao Gongming? Could it be that they will invite the Saint of Yuxu to come out and bully the weak with their strength?"

Xia Yi chuckled lightly, feeling somewhat expectant.

Da Shang, Chao Ge.

The Marquis of Xibo, Ji Chang, had been imprisoned in Fuli for several years.

His son, Boyi Kao, carried three ancestral treasures and intended to go to Chao Ge alone to redeem his father's sins.

In the Zhaixing Tower, Boyi Kao presented three precious treasures: the Seven Fragrance Cart, the Sobering Wine Felt, and the White-faced Ape Monkey.

Xia Yi, the national teacher of Da Shang, was also present.

He saw that Boyi Kao was elegant and refined, with beautiful eyes, clear eyebrows, red lips, white teeth, and a dignified appearance like a dragon and phoenix among men.

A golden light flashed in Xia Yi's eyes. He saw things that others couldn't see.

Boyi Kao's destiny was beyond words. Purple qi surged within his luck, resonating with the Purple Micro Star in the sky.

"Is this the power of a star that he acquired when he was born? It seems to be the work of the teachings!"

Xia Yi pondered secretly.

After Boyi Kao's death, he was conferred the title of Great Emperor of the Purple Micro North Pole in the Middle Heaven.

One of the Four Imperial Guards.

Second only to the Great Mother Jinling, who was one of the four direct disciples of the Saint Tongtian of the Jiejiao, and also the first among the Five Great Saint Mothers of the Jiejiao. Her status was second only to the eldest senior brother, Daoist Endless Treasure, and she was the leader of the female immortals.

It can be said that in the process of becoming a god, she had the highest status and the deepest cultivation among those who died.

Being conferred the title of Great Mother was the general expectation. Even Primordial Heavenly Venerable couldn't go against it, otherwise it would truly violate the status between the Three Pure Ones.

But Boyi Kao was just a mortal. Even if he acquired the power of the Purple Micro Star, at most he could be conferred the title of Heavenly God, which was already the highest.

In the end, it was still because the teachings had few disciples.

There were only eleven people on the list, accounting for less than three percent. They were Huang Tianhua, Xiao Zhen, Deng Hua, Tu Xingsun, Yin Hong, Long Xu Hu, Yin Jiao, Yang Ren, Han Du Long, Xue Ehu, and Shen Gongbao.

If the teachings wanted to dominate the Heavenly Court, they had to control the key divine positions.

However, Tu Xingsun, Long Xu Hu, Yin Jiao, and others had average moral character and shallow cultivation. If they were to occupy the position of Emperor Monarch, not only would the Jiejiao not accept it, but even the Heavenly Court, Western Religion, and various forces in the Three Realms would have objections.

Moreover, Primordial Heavenly Venerable valued his identity and paid attention to lineage, legitimacy, and status.

Naturally, he would not do anything to lower his status.

So it was only logical to confer the title of Emperor Monarch to a mortal who died in the Zhou Dynasty.

By supporting the Zhou Dynasty, Boyi Kao, Huang Feihu, and others naturally received the mark of Yuxu.

Now that the human world was prospering and the immortals were retreating, conferring the title of Emperor Monarch to a human race by the Heavenly Court would not be questioned by the Jade Emperor. It would also silence the voices of the sentient beings in the Three Realms.

"Emperor Monarch of the Purple Wei, one of the Four Imperial Guards. If I could become one, maybe the system would bestow upon me the Heavenly Array of the Zhou Dynasty!" Xia Yi secretly envied in his heart.

After presenting the three treasures, King Zhou was indeed delighted. Under the persuasion of Daji, he directly released Ji Chang and allowed him and Boyi Kao to return to their country.

This was naturally Xia Yi's intention.

As long as Boyi Kao was alive, he would be the legitimate eldest son of Xiqi.

Although Ji Fa was destined by heaven, he also had great ambitions.

But as long as Boyi Kao was alive, he could not become the ruler of Xiqi.

"The teachings value legitimacy, right? I want to see how those Golden Immortals will respond!" Xia Yi revealed a smile.
