Chapter 1212: General Department of Ideological and Moral Education

The great army in the starry sky split into two routes, each setting out for two Minor Thousand Worlds; they were not rushing, but rather teleporting to specific coordinates via the directional super-formation laid out by the Immortal Gate within the Mo Shi Xiao Gao Jie.

—In the past, when occupying numerous Minor Thousand Worlds, the Immortal Gate had already mapped the entire star chart of the Jiao Jiao Mingyu.

With this directional teleportation, providing just a direction allows one to roughly teleport into a certain range.

Of the two star fleets, one consisted of half veterans and half conscripts newly raised in the Mo Shi Xiao Gao Jie; Immortal Gate cultivators served as senior officers, while conscripted cultivators from the Nine Spirit Domain served as mid-level officers. This direction's legion was newly formed and not strong, so several Soul Transformation cultivators were added to reinforce it.

The other route consisted entirely of veteran conscripts from the Nine Spirit Domain; their strength was sufficient to sweep across an entire world.

This was under the condition that no Taiyi Qingmu Xianzong-level power intervened.

If a Taiyi Qingmu Xianzong-level power did appear, they should not be looking down from above, but rather trembling in fear, because the Great Sun Sword Disciple and his personal star army were stationed here.

The targets of the two great armies were the Huangsha Xiao Gao Jie and Heishui Xiao Gao Jie, neighboring the Mo Shi Xiao Gao Jie.

With the help of the super-formation, it was estimated they would complete the suppression of these two worlds within six to seven years, and conscript more armies to continue pushing in all four directions.

"Wait."

In the Sun Abyss, Jiang Ding slightly closed his eyes and continued cultivating.

He would not do everything personally; except for necessary aspects, he always did this, leaving things for those below to handle.

As long as the snowball rolled, continuously conscripting armies from Minor Thousand Worlds, promoting Minor Thousand World cultivators who Li Xia Gong during this process, and paying the price to buy their loyalty, this great army would stabilize.

Once the army stabilized, striking out in all four directions with tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of troops, attacking on multiple fronts simultaneously, the efficiency of suppressing rebellions would be no weaker, and only stronger, than if he acted alone.

Furthermore, it possessed the ability to hold ground continuously, so he would not have to remain nailed to a Minor Thousand World forever, unable to do anything or leave.

Jiang Ding was actually the Immortal Gate's mobile field force and could not be stationed in such a secondary location at all times.

Therefore, this time, the goal was not only to suppress the rebellion but also to establish a Minor Thousand World garrison system, rooting the Immortal Gate's order deep into every corner of the Minor Thousand Worlds.

The latter was as important as suppressing the rebellion!

If he did everything personally and handled all matters, the army would not be tempered; powerful and loyal Minor Thousand World Nascent Soul and Jin Dan cultivators would not earn military merit, could not progress, could not stand out, could not board the Immortal Gate's war chariot to share its benefits, and would instead become an unstable factor.

Jiang Ding sank into cultivation.

The General Staff of the Second Expeditionary Army Group, with Teacher Gu Lin and the Master Canghai Canghai Tianjun stationed near her, guarded their Deputy Commander.

Commander.

Although the opponent's strength seemed to require no protection from them, they were still the ones handling the command of the various Minor Thousand World legions.

Forming new armies, rewarding and punishing, promoting, building super-formations, and other high-tech tasks were also handled this way; relying on the General Staff of the Army Group allowed for smooth command of the ever-larger Army Group forces that would inevitably follow.

"By the way."

Jiang Ding opened his eyes; he suddenly thought of something: "Order the Flower Vine with the best Pinde Sect performance to establish the General Pinde Sect Teaching Department of the Second Expeditionary Army Group; she will serve as the Director. The duties of this department are to soothe the emotions of soldiers and officers, care for their lives and families, teach officers and soldiers some knowledge regarding military formations, and inform them of the Pinde Sect required by the Immortal Gate."

"The Immortal Gate has a mature organizational system in this regard; send people to help her build a framework."

"Flower Vine and many students from the Fire Spirit Academies have excellent academic records in Pinde Sect studies and possess the ability to teach others Pinde Sect; especially for cultivators of the Ten Thousand Races, they are more persuasive."

The Immortal Gate controlled the upward channel; not speaking of citizenship, at least the channel to Soul Transformation was willing to be given to them, because citizens could not temporarily suppress all places.

Therefore, this was equivalent to a miniature 'Ascension' channel.

Many Minor Thousand World cultivators would not be uninterested in Ascension; they would inevitably invest great enthusiasm in learning and align their ideological cognition with the direction of the Immortal Gate.

Furthermore, ideological education within the army was essential; this related to the improvement of combat effectiveness and could not rely solely on military suppression.

"Yes, Deputy Commander!"

The Chief of Staff of the Second Expeditionary Army Group was a Vice President of the Immortal Gate Academy of Sciences, a peak Nascent Soul cultivator named Shan Chun Jian Master Dinghai Zhenjun, a bald giant.

He had an excellent track record in the formation technique Yan Suan Fa and earned many military merits throughout his career; with his solid military capabilities, he was transferred to serve as the Chief of Staff of the Great Sun Canghai Tianjun.

He did not ask why and immediately went to execute the order.

"Teacher, has the power of order been born in your Refining Void space?"

After he left, Jiang Ding asked Teacher Gu Lin.

Teacher Gu Lin was the second cultivator in the Immortal Gate to possess a Refining Void space at the Nascent Soul to Soul Transformation stage; this was a manifestation of the further improvement of the Immortal Gate's Immortal Dao civilization and foundation, showing that the younger generation's roots were deeper.

"Not yet."

"It is estimated to be still early; at least there is hope only in the late Soul Transformation stage."

Teacher Gu Lin said somewhat embarrassedly.

This created a huge gap compared to the Taiyi Qingmu Xianzong Candidate Daozi.

Historical records state that before the appearance of the Great Sun Sword Pavilion, the Taiyi Qingmu Xianzong Candidate Daozi also roughly birthed the power of order in the late Soul Transformation stage.

However, after the appearance of the Great Sun Sword Pavilion and the Great Sun Sword Disciple, who carried out generation after generation of hunting against them, their strength improved significantly.

In past generations, all Taiyi Qingmu Xianzong Candidate Daozi possessed the power of order in the mid Soul Transformation stage.

This generation's Great Sun Sword Disciple is even stronger, and this domain has opened up the Jiao Jiao Mingyu with extremely abundant top-tier resources, which the great powers value exceptionally, thus triggering some chain reactions; it is possible that several of the strongest and most excellent Taiyi Qingmu Xianzong Candidate Daozi will comprehend the power of order in the late stage of the early Soul Transformation phase.

"The power of order does not necessarily have to wait for time to pass; through hard grinding, there are still some methods and techniques."

Jiang Ding smiled, calculated within his divine soul, and took out a jade slip to record the information: "This is an article I intend to publish in the Immortal Gate magazine regarding the birth and growth of the power of order; Teacher, you can refer to it."

Such unpublished articles, by all rights, should not be shown to a second person.

However, the friendship between the two was different, so naturally, there was no need for such caution.

"Thank you."

Teacher Gu Lin solemnly accepted the jade slip.

Such research on the power of order, and inevitably the top-tier research on the power of order including the Badaxian Sect within the domain, was extremely precious; if fully digested, it should accelerate the birth of the power of order in her Refining Void space.

The Canghai Tianjun's concept of time differs from that of mortals.

It seemed that only a conversation about cultivation insights and a few Zhou Tian cycles of cultivation had passed, yet several years had silently elapsed; the First and Second Army Groups of the Starry Sky Army Group finally arrived at the Huangsha Xiao Gao Jie and Heishui Xiao Gao Jie, beginning to launch attacks on the Minor Thousand Worlds.
