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

Chapter 23: The Slaughter Witch Sword

The soil under the jade tree is made of five-colored mud, which is an ancient divine object that is no less inferior to the Innate Xisang.

However, as time passes, its divinity gradually fades away.

If a sufficient amount of merit is injected into it, it can be restored to its original state.

The "Employee Storage Room" given by the system is very spacious, so Xia Yi simply sent the entire medicine field into it.

In the following time, he and his nine Sweeping Immortal Officials under his command were cleaning up the remnants of the Great Red Sky's demonic courtyard.

Although there were paper clones scouting ahead, one of the Sweeping Immortal Officials in the Return to Void stage still died in battle.

It was his unfortunate year, as he unexpectedly stumbled upon an altar where a demonic god was practicing forbidden techniques. The paper clone was annihilated in an instant, and the Sweeping Immortal Official tried to escape, but was still affected by the aftermath and perished.

Xia Yi quickly reported this matter to the Heavenly Monitoring Bureau.

Tian Peng also didn't dare to be negligent. After all, the demonic god had the cultivation level of a Great Principal Golden Immortal, making him a prominent figure in the Three Realms today.

Fortunately, this altar had been eroded by time and its power was only one percent of its peak. Tian Peng finally crushed it with the precious Golden Rake.

"Even if a Celestial Immortal came, it would be a dead end. Be careful when cleaning!" Tian Peng cautioned.

Xia Yi nodded. Originally, he had planned to inject all the merit points he earned from his work into the Immortal Tree of Immortality, but now he thought it would be more prudent to improve his luck.

Only by improving his luck could he resist various calamities.

Just the day before yesterday, he received his first month's salary as a Heavenly Official, and his monthly merit points had reached 1,560.

It was twice as much as before!

Of course, this was under the condition of working overtime.

In the blink of an eye, half a year had passed.

During this time, Xia Yi and the others had cleaned up the remnants of the demonic courtyard in ten levels of heaven.

Fortunately, there were no casualties.

Xia Yi did, however, discover many old objects, some of which still had formidable power.

For example, a broken bowl exuded a terrifying aura that was unimaginable.

After being identified by the system, it was determined to be a broken Low Grade Innate Spirit Treasure that belonged to a demon general in the Heavenly Court. If Xia Yi could spend two million merit points, it could be repaired.

With Xia Yi's current salary, he would need to work for over a thousand years!

"Forget it, I'll wait until I become a Heavenly Court deity!" he thought.

Currently, most of his merit points were focused on improving his luck and nurturing the Immortal Tree of Immortality, so the broken bowl had to be put aside for now.

...

Boom...

A loud rumbling sound was heard as a grand formation that had been maintained for millions of years collapsed. The densely packed restrictions inside were completely destroyed by the smashing of the Breaking Formation Hammer.

Xia Yi continued to use his second Primordial Spirit transformed from the Profound Yin Pearl to scout ahead, while his true body had long been hiding on the edge of the ruins.

The palace in this place was as luxurious as those heavenly palaces. Although it was dilapidated, one could still sense its grandeur.

The Golden Armored Divine Being was the first to enter the palace, while many paper clones moved around, checking for any dangerous restrictions.

When the Thunder Formation was almost cleared, the second Primordial Spirit cautiously entered.

The main hall was very spacious, with ten-zhang tall stone pillars standing on both sides of the hall. The pillars were embedded with patterns of nebulae, shining brightly, making one feel as if they were in an endless starry sky.

The ground was also made of a special divine material, solid and extremely hard.

"These stone pillars and the ground are made of rare divine materials. It seems that this palace is not ordinary!" Xia Yi's second Primordial Spirit didn't dare to be careless, as the death of the second Primordial Spirit would also cause heavy damage to the true Primordial Spirit.

There was nothing special in the main hall.

However, in the back hall, Xia Yi used the Observing Method Mirror and discovered a hidden killing formation. Even after millions of years, a faint killing intent still emanated from it.

"No, this should be Sword Qi!"

Xia Yi has been refining the Immortal Execution Sword Formation during this period, so he is particularly sensitive to Sword Qi.

The god in golden armor holds the Break Formation Cone and moves forward to break the formation.

The huge iron hammer pounds on the killing formation, instantly causing billions of Sword Qi to burst out, stirring up a surge of killing intent.

The god in golden armor is pierced through and disappears into a golden light.

The Break Formation Cone in his hand falls to the ground without any damage.

After all, it is a product of the system, so it must be of high quality.

As for the second Primordial Spirit, it had long hidden behind a stone pillar, avoiding the countless Sword Qi.

Xia Yi takes out a Gold Core and summons the god in golden armor again, holding the Break Formation Cone to attack the formation.

As expected, this god in golden armor is also killed by countless Sword Qi.

After consuming more than ten gods in golden armor, the terrifying killing formation finally cannot hold on and collapses with a loud crash.

Xia Yi summons the Apricot Yellow Flag obtained from the Primordial World and numerous golden lotuses appear, enveloping himself completely.

Only then does he cautiously enter the side hall covered by the formation.

"It seems to be the Sword Casting Pool here!"

In the center of the side hall is a huge fire pool, burning with raging flames.

Even from a distance, one can feel the intense heat.

"This is Innate Spirit Fire!"

Only Innate Spirit Fire can endure endless years without extinguishing.

Around the Sword Casting Pool, there are countless sword marks, with fierce killing intent that makes one's skin tingle.

In addition, the ground is covered with red bloodstains, as if countless creatures have been slaughtered.

On the walls around, Xia Yi also discovers some text.

These characters resemble qilin, phoenix, true dragon, and White Tiger, as if they were alive.

They are actually the ancient beast clan's script.

"Translate it, system!" Xia Yi laughs.

The system hesitates for a moment but still translates it.

"Is this the method of refining the Slaughter Witch Sword?!"

After hearing the system's translation, Xia Yi is shocked.

The Slaughter Witch Sword originated from the second and third battles of the Witch Demon War. This treasure belongs to the category of Acquired Spiritual Treasures because it was refined by Monster Sovereign Di Jun and Dong Huang during the Witch Demon War.

At that time, due to the unparalleled physical bodies of the witch clan, even stronger than the physique of the Monster Race, they were the number one race among the myriad races. Under equal strength, it was difficult for the Monster Race to break through the witch clan's defense, which put the Monster Race at a disadvantage in the Witch Demon War.

But at that time, someone in the Monster Race discovered that Law Treasures refined with the essence and soul of the human race had a stronger killing power against the witch clan. This information was then reported to the two Heavenly Emperors, Di Jun and Dong Huang.

It turns out that the human race was created by Saint Nüwa using her essence and blood, possessing an Innate Dao Body, and containing a trace of weak Saint blood. Therefore, they could break through the witch clan's physical bodies.

At that time, the human race was not a very important race. None of the major forces in the world were human races, and the human race was basically in a state of survival in the cracks.

Therefore, Di Jun and Dong Huang did not care about the life or death of the human race. They captured and killed a large number of humans, using countless human souls and blood to refine a Law Treasure filled with boundless evil energy, which is the Slaughter Witch Sword, to deal with the witch clan.

It is said that the witch clan also used the same method to refine the Annihilation Demon Banner to deal with the Monster Race.

"The place where the Slaughter Witch Sword was refined? I can't handle this thing, I have to report it!"

Although Xia Yi really wants to claim everything here for himself, his current strength is far from enough.

He has sought help from the system before.

But the system did not respond.
