More importantly, as the commander of a heavenly army, he should always coordinate the heavenly soldiers and generals, receive the orders from Erlang Shen, respond to the battle situation at any time, and contact friendly forces, so he should not go into battle.

If a Golden Immortal was killed by a Taiyi Xuanxian's unexpected move, it would only be a relatively large loss. However, if the main general rashly went into battle and was killed or trapped, it would have an immeasurable negative impact on the overall situation.

When the Daotian Tower in Northern Juluzhou was in turmoil, the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King suffered a loss and was captured by the Red Cloud Patriarch, resulting in the defeat of hundreds of thousands of heavenly soldiers and generals. The lesson was indeed profound.

So everyone respectfully accepted the order again.

"Fang Jian." At this time, Erlang Shen called out to Fang Jian again. …

Fang Jian was slightly startled when he heard this, then he immediately stood up and bowed, saying, "Here."

Erlang Shen said to Fang Jian, "As the Grand Director of Taixuan Province and the leader of the martial arts world, you will be the direct liaison between me and Taixuan Province on all matters within the Heavenly Court."

Upon hearing this, Fang Jian immediately bowed and said, "Fang Jian complies with the decree."

"Yes." Erlang Shen nodded and said, "Sit down."

Fang Jian bowed and then sat down again.

As Fang Jian took his seat, Erlang Shen began issuing further orders: "The Four Heavenly Masters are responsible for overseeing the duties of all immortal officials in the Southern Continent and the laws of all heavenly soldiers and generals. First, all earthly immortal officials must perform their duties and are not allowed to join or interfere in the war. Second, all heavenly soldiers and generals must strictly abide by the Heavenly Laws when going into battle. No violation is allowed. Violators will be severely punished."

The four great celestial masters immediately bowed and accepted the order, saying, "I will obey your command."

Regarding this war of conquest, the Taixuandu Province has issued a clear decree to all the immortal officials on land in the Southern Continent, telling them that they only need to perform their duties and maintain order in the human world, and they do not need to participate in the war of conquest.

This is not just the case with the Heavenly Court's conquest of the Xuanjiao and Buddhism. Throughout history, if there is a war in the Heavenly Court that affects a large continent, these immortal officials on the land will be moved to the "neutral" side. Similarly, unless Buddhism and the Xuanjiao do something stupid, they will not touch these immortal officials on the land of the human world.

These gods of land, kitchen, door, water, mountain, etc., all carry the peace and order of all living beings in the human world. It's not a big problem to touch one or two of them, but if you dare to kill them all or detain and imprison them, you will not be offending the Heavenly Court, but the way of heaven.

By then, the world will be in turmoil, lives will be lost, and you will be punished by Heaven, which will directly sap the fortune of your entire sect. Who can bear it?

Another point is that when the heavenly soldiers and generals go to war, they must not disrupt the order of the human world, must not disturb the living beings of the human world, and must not kill innocent people indiscriminately to violate the laws of heaven.

The main targets of this expedition are Buddhism and Taoism. The heavenly soldiers and generals are not allowed to interfere in any other matters. Even if they see monsters eating people with their own eyes, they must not interfere without authorization.

The Four Heavenly Masters are responsible for inspecting and supervising the above two laws. Of course, they are also responsible for supervising other matters, such as whether there are any demon cultivators or immortals secretly helping Buddhism and Xuanjiao. Once discovered, they must record it and settle accounts one by one afterwards.

Erlang Shen then made detailed arrangements and dispatches to all the gods and generals present, and then asked all the gods and generals present to make additional suggestions. The entire meeting lasted for ten hours before it ended.

But after the ceremony, everyone did not leave. Instead, they put all the tables together to form a huge round table. Everyone sat around it in a circle. The heavenly soldiers served spiritual tea to everyone, and Erlang Shen began an informal discussion with everyone while drinking tea.

"Once the war starts, try not to be merciful. Do you understand what I mean?" Erlang Shen took a sip of the spiritual tea, then swept his eyes across the faces of the people around him and said.

Everyone nodded and said in unison: "Understood."

Even as he sat there, Erlang Shen stood tall and straight. He put down his teacup and said, "I know that most of you here have some connections or relationships with the Buddhist sect, but now you are all immortal officials of the Heavenly Court. We are trusted by the Great Celestial Venerable and have been given the authority to conquer. We must not consider friendships and betray the Great Celestial Venerable's grace and trust."

Everyone looked at each other and finally said, "Please rest assured, Master Erlang, we can distinguish the priorities."

"That's good." Erlang Shen nodded slightly.

But at this moment, everyone suddenly felt a darkness above their heads. It felt as if the sun above their heads suddenly dimmed, and then the sunlight was still there, but not a trace of warmth could be felt.

Everyone raised their heads, and their sight immediately penetrated the buildings above and looked towards the Zhoutian star field.

Within the Zhoutian star field, the sun, moon and billions of stars are still shining brightly, illuminating the world. However, all the immortal cultivators in the Three Realms can clearly feel that the power of the stars has faded from the world.

Now the stars hanging in the sky only illuminate the mortal beings. All the immortal cultivators in the Three Realms can no longer use their magical powers and spells to borrow the power of the stars in the sky.

"The stars in the sky have withdrawn from the world and their power has been gathered." Tota-Bearing Heavenly King said slowly.

At this moment, a golden talisman appeared out of thin air and landed directly in front of Erlang Shen.

Erlang Shen immediately stood up and took the talisman. He opened it and took a look before saying to the crowd, "The Great Emperor Gou Chen has decreed that the stars in the heavens have withdrawn from the world and withdrawn from the world. The Three Realms are no longer blessed by the stars."

Fang Jian understood immediately after hearing Erlang Shen's words. This was equivalent to the navigation satellite on Earth, which originally covered the entire Three Realms and provided services free of charge to all the immortals and cultivators in the Three Realms. But now the Heavenly Court has taken it back and only provides services to the people in the Heavenly Court.
