My version of Heavenly Dao is too old, so it's full of bugs.

Chapter 474 The Heavenly Court's War Potential

Since the birth of the Heavenly Court
Never before has there been such drastic version changes.

It's only been less than a year since the Tiandao 719 version update, and now Tiandao 7.20 is here, and it's the most terrifying military control version ever!
The Five Elders, watching the Doubu headquarters begin to function again, couldn't help but smile: "That Lord of War has finally gone all in! Now it's time for us to make our move!"

Brush brush!
In the starry sky above the nine heavens, five enormous stars—black, red, yellow, blue, and white—suddenly lit up, actively leaping into the constellation of stars.

[Eastern Azure Emperor's Azure Spirit Primordial Star is now accepting applications for access!]

[Southern Crimson Emperor's True Star is now accepting applications for access!]

[Applications for access to the Central Emperor's Mysterious Spirit Dao Star are now open!]

The Five Elders, who were originally independent of the Heavenly Court's Three Enclosures and Twenty-Eight Mansions system, have now moved their divine positions and law systems into the Doubu constellation!

Following closely behind, the gods from the Thunder Department, the Wealth Department, the Plague Department, the Fire Department, and other departments of the Heavenly Court, who had been waiting for a long time, also arrived at the main altar of the Fighting Department, connecting all the law systems of their respective departments into the fighting machine of the Fighting Department.

So far,

The Heavenly Court's preparations for war are finally complete.

The Lord of War can finally settle the accounts for the merits of the Fighting Department.

Since entering the 7.0 version of Heavenly Dao, the gods of the Doubu have created a massive amount of merit through suppressing war, which, once manifested, brought forth a huge amount of merit and vow power crystals.

If the merit and vow power required to become a deity is one unit, then the merit and vow power power obtained by Doubu in this settlement is close to 30,000 units.

The hundreds of gods in the war faction each obtained at least dozens of units of willpower realm, and some even obtained thousands of units in one go.

This is their war reserve, and also an important resource that they use to enhance their divine power, baptize their divine body, and transform the world!

The fighting power of the gods of the War Gods will thus reach its peak, and the War Gods' laws will be amplified to their maximum. From then on, all laws of the Three Realms will give way to the laws of war.
The highest power in Heaven will also be concentrated in the military department.

In this situation, even the Heavenly Emperor could be sacrificed, the Three Pure Ones and the Four Emperors had to obey the orders of the Lord of War, and even the Lord of War himself had to risk his life.
Since then,

No one was spared.
The Heavenly Court will, as it has done countless times before, spare no effort to achieve victory!
And the first to pay the price will be all living beings in the Three Realms!
With the combined efforts of all departments of the Heavenly Court to integrate the Law System into the Fighting Department, the military control version of Heavenly Dao 7.20 has finally been updated and thoroughly implanted into the Three Realms.

Under the influence of the laws of war,

All cultivators and commoners under the rule of the Heavenly Court are divided into six categories according to their cultivation level: Qi Refining, Foundation Establishment, Golden Core, Nascent Soul, Deity Transformation, and Scattered Deity!
As long as you possess cultivation, it is assumed that you are already an adult and will be forcibly included in the conscription list to become a reserve soldier of the Heavenly Court.

Simultaneously,

Furthermore, based on your specific occupation, age, whether you have mastered the skills, and other factors, each category will be divided into nine levels, and tasks will be forcibly assigned according to the level.

For example, if you are a Qi Refining Ninth Rank soldier, you will immediately become cannon fodder and be sent directly to the front line as a laborer.

Such ruthless methods would naturally cause a huge uproar, and might even lead to a direct rebellion by the lowest-ranking cultivators in the Heavenly Court.

But don't panic.

The Heavenly Court had long ago devised a method to deal with lower-level cultivators; in short, it boils down to four words.
Divide and conquer!
While dividing cultivators into nine ranks, the Heavenly Court also divided them into eighth, seventh, and sixth ranks. In this way, eighth-rank soldiers commanded ninth-rank soldiers, and sixth-rank soldiers commanded seventh-rank soldiers.

As a result,
Before all of you privates are dead, it's impossible for me, a private eighth class, to be dead; and before all of you private eighth class are dead, it's impossible for me, a private seventh class, to be dead.

The lower-level cultivators themselves split up.

These recruitment ranks, like artificial classes, were forcefully implanted among the lower-level cultivators of the Three Realms, making it impossible for them to unite.

Yes!
The power of you lower-level cultivators is great. Once everyone unites, even the Heavenly Court will be unable to resist. But how to unite them is the biggest problem!

The saying goes, "Those in the same trade often look down on each other."

This is especially true for lower-level cultivators.

The saying goes, "I'm afraid my brothers will suffer, and I'm also afraid my brothers will drive Land Rovers." Even if you are two brothers, it's difficult for you to unite and help each other, let alone other people.

Therefore, after the Heavenly Court's six categories and nine ranks of recruitment laws were implemented, the bonds between cultivators throughout the Three Realms were further severed!
The Heavenly Court didn't even intervene.

For their own benefit, the eighth-rank, seventh-rank, and sixth-rank cultivators voluntarily suppressed all the ninth-rank cultivators, raising hundreds of billions of soldiers for the Heavenly Court in one fell swoop!
Although the vast majority of them are the weakest Qi Refining cultivators, don't worry, even a pile of dog shit can be made to shine in the hands of the Heavenly Court. If all else fails, you can still become a talent!

The Heavenly Court will never waste your talent.

In addition to the hundreds of billions of ninth-grade Qi Refining soldiers, the Heavenly Court also recruited one billion Foundation Establishment soldiers, about forty million Golden Core soldiers, one million Nascent Soul soldiers, and thirty thousand Nascent Soul soldiers.

Although cultivation becomes increasingly difficult as one progresses, and fewer and fewer cultivators can reach high levels, the long lifespan of cultivators is an insurmountable advantage!
Over thousands of years, the number of cultivators at the Nascent Soul and Deity Transformation levels has actually been quite considerable. However, these people usually hide in various companies and organizations and rarely show themselves.

Now that the Heavenly Court's war law system has been implemented, all these people have finally been apprehended, and even the ninth-rank soldiers number in a terrifyingly large quantity. With so many soldiers at his disposal, Taibai Jinxing felt much more confident and immediately began to mobilize his troops!
[Elder Shi and True Elder, you two, along with the gods of the Thunder Department, the precious scriptures and the Jade Book, one hundred True Gods of the Dou Department, five thousand Nascent Soul cultivators, one hundred thousand Infant cultivators, and an army of ten million Golden Core cultivators, directly seal off Mount Ling!]

[Master Huang, leading the Heavenly Book of the City and the gods of the Ministry of Finance, along with eight thousand Nascent Soul cultivators, two hundred thousand Infant cultivators, and an army of twenty million Golden Core cultivators, will lead me to attack the Blissful Demon Land and draw their fire.]

[Elder Xuan, this is the headquarters of the Heaven-Slaying Alliance. You take the gods of the Tai Sui Department and attack this place directly to hold off the Heaven-Slaying Alliance's reinforcements.]

After Venus finished arranging the gods, he took out a detailed conscription list and, with a casual flick of his finger, bound the fates of countless people to the battlefield.

All those named on my list must gather in the Western Desert and Central Plains within ten days to cooperate with the gods in sealing off Buddhism, suppressing the Blissful Demon Land, and launching a surprise attack on the Heaven-Slaying Alliance. Anyone who dares to disobey will have their soul scattered and be condemned to eternal damnation!

After arranging the other gods.

Venus has finally begun to bare its fangs!

[Your Majesty! You, along with the gods of the Fighting, Plague, and Fire Departments, will join me in conquering the Dragon Clan. Even if it means burning trillions of living beings, this time you must concentrate your firepower and wipe out the Dragon Clan first!]

【yes!!】

The Heavenly Court's war machine began to operate under the orders of Venus, and within just a few days, it unleashed a war potential that terrified countless people.

Although everyone knows that the Heavenly Court is terrifying, during peacetime, the gods in the Heavenly Court are busy making a fortune, so people have gradually forgotten their past fears.

And now,
All beings in the Three Realms were stunned by the Heavenly Court's mobilization capabilities!
Hundreds of millions of cultivators were transported like ants and stockpiled in the Western Desert, Central State, and South China Sea.

The Buddhist sect, the Nine Saints Heretical Paths, and the Dragon Clan naturally wouldn't sit idly by and wait to be killed. They immediately organized their forces and launched various surprise attacks on the Heavenly Court's interior in an attempt to distract them.

But Venus remained completely unmoved by this!
You want to kill someone, huh?
I'll send you to kill me!

Anyway, there are plenty of people in the Three Realms and Five Continents. The more you kill, the more sins you will bear and the more karmic fire you will attract. I want to see how many people you can kill!
So when the Buddhist sect, the Dragon Clan, and the Blissful Demon Land wreaked havoc on the human world, Venus not only ignored it but also helped them report on it, portraying the Buddhist sect and the Dragon Clan as enemies of the human race who indiscriminately slaughtered innocent people.

After reading the report, the cultivators from the five states, while not readily believing the Heavenly Court, also lost their goodwill towards Buddhism and the Dragon Clan.

The Heavenly Court has thus achieved its goal!

Whether you like me or not is irrelevant; as long as you don't like my enemies, that's a win!

Now,
The Buddhist sect and the dragon clan began to feel a chill run down their spines.

When the enemy doesn't care about their own people, slaughtering them will only bring trouble upon yourself.

[Damn it! The Lord of War's tactics are utterly shameless; he's trying to wear us down by relying on the overwhelming numerical superiority that the Heavenly Court has accumulated over countless generations!]

[Well, this was just a delaying tactic anyway. To resist the Heavenly Court, we must ultimately confront them head-on!]

then,

Several factions also began to prepare their troops and set up various battlefields in advance, waiting for the Heavenly Court's invasion.

The Three Realms were plunged into the calm before the storm.

It was in this tranquility that Venus suddenly summoned Li Wei and gave him a task alone.

Do you know where the mouth of the Guanjiang River is?

Li Wei knows this all too well!

The Daoist temple of Erlang Shen is a rare blessed land in the world, and even the gods of the Heavenly Court are not allowed to enter it casually. It is currently recognized as the number one forbidden area in the Three Realms.

At this time, when Venus suddenly mentions this place, what does it mean?
"Lord Bingzhu, you wouldn't be asking me to go to Guanjiang Estuary to invite the Manifestation of the True Lord, would you?"

Hey! You guessed right, kid. That's right, this important task is entrusted to you!

"Heh! I can go, but not like this! You didn't even prepare a gift, how am I supposed to leave here?"

[Hahaha! I won a bet with Yang Erlang once, so he gave me a jade token that I can use to ask him to do something for me.]

"What about the jade pendant?"

【That's it! We used it when Heaven was attacked last time, so this time we have no choice but to send you! After all, aren't you the gift?】

Li Wei: ? ? ? !

Damn old man, no wonder you transferred me to the army!
You actually intend to use me to seduce Erlang Shen?!
