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

Chapter 105: Western Robbery, Taiyi Appears

"Senior Brother, you've arrived quickly!" Xia Yi greeted with a cupped fist.

Huang Long Perfected Being looked at the young man in front of him, his expression somewhat complicated.

Originally, he had planned to take Yang Wu as his disciple, but unexpectedly, his master intercepted him and he became his junior brother. Truly, the world is unpredictable.

However, he didn't have any regrets. After all, he now possessed the Taiji Talisman, a defensive treasure, so he didn't need to take disciples to resist calamities.

"The Orthodox Sect is going against the heavens, so I have no choice but to come," Huang Long Perfected Being sighed.

Among the Twelve Golden Immortals, his cultivation was the weakest.

But during the Quantity Calamity, he had to send someone to the Conferred Divinity List, otherwise, he himself might end up on the list.

So he came early, looking for an easy target.

Not long after, Yu Ding Perfected Being arrived riding a golden light.

---

Speaking of which, after spending about seven or eight days in the Shang Dynasty camp, Lu Yue said to everyone, "Under my plague technique, I believe all the people of Xi Qi have perished."

Hong Jin heard this and left the camp to look at the city walls of Xi Qi. He saw soldiers constantly coming and going, and Nezha patrolling above the city on his Wind Fire Wheels, causing him great astonishment.

He immediately returned and said to Lu Yue, "Master Uncle said that the people of Xi Qi have perished, but I see the soldiers on the city walls in high spirits, not at all like they're affected by the plague. How should Master Uncle deal with this?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Yue stood up and said, "How can this be?"

He went out of the camp to take a look and indeed saw the soldiers behaving as usual. He calculated with his fingers and couldn't help but exclaim, "The Pure World White Lotus has appeared? This treasure can dispel all worldly poisons, but it is my nemesis!"

Then he said to Hong Jin, "You lead the army of Xi Qi, take advantage of his weakness and attack the city, slaughter them all! Brother Dingguang, Brother Mayuan, and I will be in the front!"

"Yes!"

Hong Jin didn't dare to disobey and quickly mobilized a hundred thousand troops to attack Xi Qi.

With a cannon blast and the shouts of the three armies, they arrived at the city.

The army of Xi Qi was also ready, with Nezha as the vanguard. He charged out and fought with Lu Yue, who led the Shang army.

Nezha roared and revealed his three heads and eight arms. He wore the Qiankun Ring on his arms, the Huntuan Robe around his body, wielded the Fire-tipped Spear in his hand, rode the Wind Fire Wheels under his feet, and possessed the group attack Golden Bricks, the fire attack Nine Dragons Divine Fire Cover, and the Yin-Yang Sword in his hands.

These were all the Law Treasures of Taiyi Perfected Being, among which the Qiankun Ring, Huntuan Robe, and Nine Dragons Divine Fire Cover were even Innate Spirit Treasures with extraordinary power.

"How dare you show off these techniques in front of me?" Lu Yue laughed loudly and also displayed his three heads and eight arms. He held the Plague Twin Swords in his hands, and also had the Forming Heaven Seal, Plague Clock, Forming Plague Banner, Plague Umbrella, Plague Pill, and Bagua Platform.

One was the reincarnation of the Ancient Nuwa Palace's Lingzhu, a disciple of the third generation of the Orthodox Sect.

The other mastered the primordial plague path.

Both were remarkable figures.

However, Lu Yue's treasure was evolved from the Innate plague qi when chaos first opened, and was not to be taken lightly.

Nezha didn't have the Innate Lotus Body because he hadn't filleted his bones to repay his mother or cut his flesh to repay his father, so he found it difficult to resist this Innate plague qi.

He only felt dizzy and his Primordial Spirit had a tendency to disintegrate.

"Junior Brother, I'll help you!" Yang Jian rushed over with his Trident Blade.

He had cultivated the Nine Revolutions Profound Art to the fourth revolution, and his physical body was unbelievably strong. Although he couldn't compare to the ancient great witches, he could still withstand this Innate plague qi.

Facing these two elite disciples of the Orthodox Sect, Lu Yue couldn't help but feel a bit overwhelmed and unable to cope.

Several of his disciples saw their master in trouble and didn't care about slaughtering the soldiers of Xiqi. They hurriedly went out to rescue him.

But they were stopped by Xia Yi, who had transformed into a golden crow.

Li Qi held the Fazao Banner, Zhu Tianlin held the Unconscious Sword with a fierce momentum, and a gray-brown poisonous gas surged out. The soldiers who accidentally touched this evil gas all had their bodies rot and turned into a pool of green pus.

Among them were even some soldiers from the Da Shang Dynasty.

Xia Yi had the Sixth Grade Pure World White Lotus above his head, which naturally restrained these Innate plague weapons and put him in an unbeatable position.

He took out a yellow gourd, from which a faint light emitted, more than three zhang high. On top of it appeared something white, seven inches long, with eyebrows and eyes. Two white lights shone from its eyes, covering Li Qi's Mud Pill Palace, nailing it down.

Li Qi immediately felt his Primordial Spirit become drowsy, unable to distinguish the directions, not knowing front from back or left from right.

Xia Yi bowed in the air and said, "Please turn around, my treasure."

In an instant, Li Qi's head had already fallen to the ground, and his soul went to the Enfeoffed God Platform.

Zhu Tianlin was greatly shocked and wanted to escape, but how could Xia Yi let him go? He once again sacrificed the Immortal-Slaying Flying Knife, killing his physical body along with his Primordial Spirit, and ascended the Conferred Divinity List.

On the other side, Lei Zhenzi, Jinzha, and Muzha were also fighting against several of Lü Yue's disciples.

Among them, the strongest was Lei Zhenzi, who had eaten two Immortal Apricots from Yunzhongzi and reached the level of Golden Immortal.

But under the influence of the Innate plague weapons such as the Headache Bell and the Plague Pustules, they felt dizzy and drowsy, unable to fully exert their strength.

They were on the verge of defeat.

Three white light pillars as thick as bowls suddenly appeared in the air, shining into their bodies.

The Innate plague gas raging in their bodies instantly dissipated.

Lei Zhenzi and the others returned to normal, full of energy.

"Thank you, Master Uncle!" they exclaimed with joy.

Xia Yi once again sacrificed the Immortal-Slaying Flying Knife and killed Zhou Xin.

The other two disciples were overwhelmed by Lei Zhenzi, Jinzha, and Muzha, and were killed, their souls ascending the Conferred Divinity List.

Not far away, Lü Yue was also finding it increasingly difficult to fight.

Although he was at the peak of Taiyi, he had not yet attained the position of Great Principal Golden Immortal. Under the siege of the two elite disciples of the Chanjiao sect, he had already fallen into a disadvantageous situation.

He let out a roar, and the eight powerful Innate plague weapons emitted boundless power, sprinkling countless plague beans.

Even Yang Jian, as strong as he was, had to retreat and avoid their sharpness.

At this moment, a white lotus the size of a water jar appeared in the sky above the battlefield.

The surging Innate plague gas, like encountering scorching heat, dissipated completely.

"Master Uncle is here!" Yang Jian was overjoyed. He secretly took out a silver bullet gold bow and shot a bullet, like a shooting star, hitting Lü Yue's right shoulder.

Lü Yue's right shoulder collapsed, bones shattered, and he was seriously injured.

Just as he was about to take out medicine to treat his injuries, Nezha secretly sacrificed a golden brick, hitting his eyes, almost smashing his head.

Xia Yi timely sacrificed the gourd, and a faint light emitted, more than three zhang high. On top of it was something seven inches long, with eyebrows and eyes. Two white lights shone from its eyes, covering Lü Yue's Mud Pill Palace.

"Treasure, please turn around!"

Lü Yue shouted loudly, his physical body collapsed, and his Primordial Spirit shattered into pieces. A strand of True Spirit floated towards the Conferred Divinity List.

The Immortal-Slaying Flying Knife in Xia Yi's hand was not a counterfeit from the Primordial World, but the original authentic product of Lu Ya Daoist.

The reason why Lu Ya sent out the Immortal-Slaying Flying Knife was twofold. One was to protect the only descendant of the Jinwu lineage.

The second was to use Xia Yi's hand to complete the killing tribulation.

On the other side of the battlefield, Ma Yuanzheng was killing in all directions. A hand stretched out from behind his head, with five fingers the size of a grinding disc, grabbing General Wu Rong of Xi Qi in the air. He tore him apart in mid-air, took out his heart dripping with blood, and chewed it greedily.

Then he killed towards Jiang Ziya, shouting, "Today, I, Daoist Ma, will taste the flavor of a disciple of Yu Xu!"

Jiang Ziya was filled with fear and dared not confront him.

At this moment, the Yellow Dragon Perfected Being flew forward and asked, "Who are you, Daoist?"

Ma Yuan replied, "I am an Immortal of the White Bone Cave in the Skeleton Mountain. I have heard that you all are using the techniques of Kunlun and invading Da Shang. It is truly hateful. Today, I have come down the mountain to send you all to your deaths!"

Then, he lifted his sword and attacked with a fierce aura, intending to take their hearts and eat them raw.

Not only did he cultivate the Upper Clear Immortal Law, but he also had profound knowledge of the Great Asura Immeasurable Divine Ability. His magic was profound, and among the disciples of the Jiejiao Sect, his strength was outstanding.

If it were the previous Yellow Dragon Perfected Being, he would have already fled in panic under his demonic power.

But now he possessed the Taiji Talisman bestowed by the Heavenly Venerable Yuan Shi.

Wearing it could protect his body, making him invulnerable to all methods.

Ma Yuan, seeing that none of his magic was effective, felt fear in his heart and immediately fled.

How could the Yellow Dragon Perfected Being let him escape? He used the technique of the Golden Light of the Earth to chase after him.

The technique of the Golden Light of the Earth was the highest-level escape technique in the Three Realms. Even Lü Ya's Rainbow Transformation technique was slightly inferior to it.

He held a Nine Dragons Sword, which was left behind by the Ancestral Dragon. It was extremely sharp and could break the body of a Great Witch.

Soon, he caught up with Ma Yuan in a high mountain.

Just as Ma Yuan was about to meet his death, he heard someone calling from the sky, "Brother, spare his life!"

The Yellow Dragon Perfected Being turned his head and saw a Daoist flying through the clouds. He had double buns on his head, wearing Daoist robes, and had a slightly yellow complexion and a small beard.

The Daoist said, "I pay my respects!"

The Yellow Dragon Perfected Being couldn't see the other party's true intentions, so he also returned the greeting and said, "Fellow Daoist, where do you come from? Is there something you need to tell me?"

The Daoist smiled and said, "I am the Quan Ti Daoist of the Western Teachings. This Ma Yuan is not listed on the Conferred Divinity List, but he has deep roots and a heavy karma. He has a connection with our Western Teachings. I plan to bring him back to the West, cleanse his murderous nature, and help him achieve enlightenment. It will also be a great story."

The Yellow Dragon Perfected Being was shocked. It turned out to be a Saint from the Western Teachings. How could he dare to speak?

The Quan Ti Daoist stepped forward and patted Ma Yuan's head, saying, "Fellow Daoist, you have committed great sins and strayed from the right path. Why don't you follow me to the West to cultivate your character and nurture your nature?"

Ma Yuan, seeing that he could avoid death, quickly said, "I am willing to convert!"

Immediately, he followed the Quan Ti Daoist to the West.

The Long-Eared Dingguang Immortal was one of the seven attendants of the Jiejiao Saints, second only to the Wuyun Immortal. He had achieved the position of Great Principal Golden Immortal in ancient times.

He fought against the Jade Cauldron Perfected Being, and their battle was evenly matched.

Seeing that Lü Yue had died and Ma Yuan had escaped with an unknown fate, he had a sudden thought.

He immediately turned into a golden light and disappeared.

"Where do you think you're going!"

The Jade Cauldron Perfected Being shouted, also displaying the technique of the Golden Light of the Earth.

The Long-Eared Dingguang Immortal had powerful cultivation. If he escaped at all costs, the Jade Cauldron Perfected Being might not be able to catch up.

But after flying for tens of thousands of miles, a Daoist suddenly appeared in front of him. He stepped on a twelve-colored lotus flower, emitting billions of rays of light, dyeing half of the sky in colorful brilliance.

This Daoist raised his right hand, and a beam of light shot out.

The Long-Eared Dingguang Immortal immediately let out a scream, revealing his true form. He turned into a gray rabbit the size of a water buffalo, with unusually long ears, about three feet in size, sharp as a sword.

"I have seen the Guiding Saint!"

The Jade Cauldron Perfected Being had more knowledge than the Yellow Dragon and knew who the owner of this Twelfth Grade Merit Golden Lotus was. He quickly stepped forward to pay his respects.

The Guiding Perfected Being returned the gesture and said, "The Long-Eared Dingguang Immortal has a connection with the Western Teachings. I have come to guide him!"

Later, he said to Chang'er Dingguang Immortal Dao: "Fellow Daoist, why don't you come with me to the Eight Virtues Pool in the Western Region? We can discuss the profound principles of the Three Vehicles and enjoy ourselves in the Seven Treasures Forest."

Chang'er Dingguang Immortal didn't dare to oppose and said, "I am willing to convert!"

"Good!"

The Guiding Daoist nodded, then led a rabbit the size of a water buffalo towards the west.

Without the assistance of the three disciples from the Jiejiao Sect, the Da Shang army was defeated.

The main general, Hong Jin, was also killed and his True Spirit ascended to the Conferred Divinity List.

Xi Qi achieved a complete victory.

Chao Ge, the residence of the National Teacher.

Wen Zhong sighed as he held a document and said, "Hong Jin, Lu Yue, and all his disciples died in battle. Chang'er Dingguang Immortal and Ma Yuan are nowhere to be found. I feel guilty towards them!"

Xia Yi calmly said, "Hong Jin and Lu Yue were entangled in karma. Their names were on the list, and it was their destiny that couldn't be violated. Chang'er Dingguang Immortal and Ma Yuan had a connection with the Western Region. They were taken by the Saint to the Western Region. Prime Minister, you should consider the calamity of the Juelong Ridge!"

"When I attained enlightenment in the Biyou Palace, I worshipped the Golden Spirit Holy Mother as my teacher. Later, my teacher ordered me to descend the mountain and assist Cheng Tang. Before I left, my teacher said, 'You will never encounter the word "extinction" in your life.' I also know that if I can overcome this calamity, there is hope for the Great Principle. If I cannot overcome it, I will only end up on the Conferred Divinity List!"

The Prime Minister laughed heartily, appearing very indifferent.

"I will also give you a saying: 'Encounter death in the clouds, be born in the mist!'" Xia Yi smiled.

The Prime Minister was somewhat puzzled but did not inquire further.

Originally, he had reached the peak of the Golden Immortal realm. Now, with the merits shared by Xia Yi, he directly attained the position of Taiyi.

Perhaps he could break free from his fate.

Afterward, he led an army of 500,000 soldiers and marched west to confront Martial King Ji Fa.

Leaving the Azure Dragon Pass, they also recruited Deng Xin, Zhang Tao, and the other four generals.

After a few days of marching, they suddenly saw a stone tablet with three characters written on it: "Juelong Ridge."

The Prime Minister's heart trembled, knowing that this was his destined calamity. If he could avoid it, his path would be smooth. If he couldn't, he would ascend to the Conferred Divinity List.

He then ordered the troops to set up camp. With a cannon blast, the three armies settled down and established a large camp.

The next day, they deployed their troops and engaged in a major battle with Xi Qi.

Although the Prime Minister had the level of a Taiyi Golden Immortal, he was at a disadvantage against the numerous and skilled soldiers of Xi Qi, including Nezha, Yang Jian, and others.

The Prime Minister suffered a great loss and his whip was damaged.

In the following six months, both sides suffered losses in the ongoing battles, but overall, the Prime Minister suffered more setbacks.

Jiang Ziya secretly doubted, "Senior Yunzhongzi said that I have the power of the Ten Absolute Formations, but we have been fighting for half a year now. If Wen Zhong doesn't seek immortality or find allies, could it be that Senior's calculations were wrong?"

But now, the morale of Xi Qi was high, and a few days ago, Yang Jian burned the food and supplies of the Shang Dynasty's army.

They were preparing for a major offensive.

However, Xia Yi, in the form of the Golden Crow, said, "Senior Ziya, Wen Zhong is after all an outstanding disciple among the three generations. His strength is not much weaker than that of Yang Jian and Nezha. To be safe, it would be better to invite a senior to help suppress the situation."

Jiang Ziya pondered for a moment and nodded, "What you said makes sense. I wonder who would be the best senior to invite?"

Xia Yi was about to speak when Nezha, who was beside him, spoke first, "I have the Wind Fire Wheels and fast footwork. I can go to the Golden Light Cave and ask our Master to come and help!"

Jiang Ziya was overjoyed and quickly said, "Please invite Senior Taiyi to come!"

Xia Yi felt delighted, as this saved him from having to say anything.

Immediately, Nezha rode the Wind Fire Wheels and went to the Golden Light Cave, briefly explaining the situation.

Taiyi Perfected Being thought to himself, "I originally wanted to use Shi Ji Niangniang to complete the killing calamity, but instead, I lost a lot of luck. Wen Zhong is just a disciple of the Jiejiao Sect's third generation. It's just right for me to start a killing spree!"

He then followed Nezha to Xi Qi.
