After the two met, they naturally exchanged greetings, because Huang Chang just brought relatives and friends in to have a lively look this time, and he was going back later while the space channel was still open, so he didn't engage in a tea forum, just looked around accompanied by this Wang Daoyou, and simply watched the flowers.

The top was quite neat, but when they walked to the lower half of the Gaotai fortress, they saw that there were many swords and axes on the surrounding stone walls and blood-colored marks, and there were even clusters of fine iron arrows inlaid in the pillar stones, obviously there had been a fierce fight, which surprised Huang Chang:

"Have the demons ever attacked here?"

"Yes, they were raided once, and that time they suddenly threw in heavy troops and rushed straight under the fortress, but they were still blocked at the lower level, and they couldn't even rush to the middle level. ”

That Wang Daoyou was quite proud of this at first, but after seeing Huang Chang's not very satisfied eyes, he remembered that this was an elite disciple of Kunlun, and he had led people to sweep away all the demon clans in this space. He felt that holding the fortress was a victory, and this Wong Tai Sin would definitely not think so, so he hurriedly smiled and said:

"Actually, we've also hit the place where the demon clan is stationed, several times. Once, even the opponent's teleportation array was captured, but there were also demon generals stationed outside them, and they couldn't attack it. Later, a large number of late-stage elite demon soldiers poured in, and they couldn't defend and had to retreat. ”

Speaking of this, he made a helpless gesture, and Huang Chang nodded in understanding. If you think about it, you can't blame anyone, the characteristics of this ghost place are like this: a total of three or four thousand miles of territory, as long as you are willing to spend a little effort, you can penetrate it. The strength of each side depends on the amount of external investment, but the results of victory cannot be maintained, and the consequences of defeat will not last.

Therefore, West Kunlun usually does not arrange too many people here, and there are only two teams of Taoist soldiers stationed there, about forty people. The Dao soldiers were all innate cultivators, and with a few members of the outer sect cultivators like Wang Daoyou, it was enough to maintain the daily operation and protection of the fortress. No matter how many people there are, it is useless, but it will increase the burden of logistics and materials.

If it encounters an attack, as long as it holds the topmost teleportation array for a short period of time without losing, it can instantly send more than a dozen masters of mid-to-late stage cultivation of qi refining in, plus the other three teams of rotating Dao soldiers who usually stay outside, a large team of more than 100 people in total is enough to sweep this space again.

Even if the teleportation array is lost, it doesn't matter, it's just to use the teleportation charm to come in, scattered everywhere, take a moment to concentrate, and you can still counterattack and recapture the fortress. There is no vegetation in this space, and it is impossible for either side to gather too many troops in it for a long time. Moreover, after all, the respective spatial passages of the two sides are still thousands of miles apart, even if one side loses even the nest in the early stage, as long as the patience gathers strength and continuously teleports in, it will still be able to regain the territory that belongs to its own side after all.

"It's a never-ending war game. ”

Huang Chang thought so before, and now he has strengthened this cognition, and that Wang Daoyou also thinks so. If you want to control this place for a long time, you can only continue to bleed the opponent until the other party can't bear the loss and takes the initiative to give up - judging from the current situation, both humans and demons can bear it, and it is still very early to lose confidence and give up on the initiative.

As they spoke, they came to the hall in the middle of the fortress, which was the core of the entire fortress and the daily gathering place for defenders and mercenaries. The mercenary monks who came in on the mission stayed here for a month, and they loved to wander around the fortress except for the hours when they were out adventurous. You can inquire about news, solicit companions, or trade loot with others, etc......

There is a huge sand table in the center of the hall, which carefully simulates the topography of the entire cross-border space - after more than a year of repeated exploration, the topography in this space has been basically discovered. Except for occasional changes in a few marginal areas due to the instability of the space itself, the overall situation of the entire space is clear.

Including the huge fortress where they are now is also shown on the sand table. Huang Chang noticed that at the other end of the sand table, there was also a huge pyramid-shaped building of similar shape and scale, and judging by its location, it was the spatial node leading to Jiulian Mountain, the old nest of the demon clan.

“...... That's right, the demon clan has also built a fortress, almost exactly like ours. Taller and bigger, these brutes learn pretty quickly. ”

Noticing Huang Chang's eyes, the Wang Daoyou opened his mouth to explain. Huang Chang smiled, and said in his heart that this kind of high-platform system was actually transformed from the altar of the demon clan, and we are the plagiarists, of course, there is no need to be honest with others.

His eyes shifted slightly, but he saw another place on the sand table, and there were several fortresses that were not small in scale, but the shape was cylindrical, which was quite similar to the Hakka tulou he was familiar with in his previous life, there were three of them, and they were gathered together from the sand table, and they might actually be a little far away - if this sand table was made in strict accordance with the scale.

Looking at the direction, combined with the memories in his mind, Huang Chang remembered that it should be a spatial node leading to the central Sichuan region.

"Is that a fortress built by the Chuanzhong Sect?"

"Yes, Qingcheng and Emei each built one, and the other one was jointly established by several other small local sects. ”

Huang Chang raised his eyebrows, it seems that the space passage over there has not been monopolized by any one. But this has nothing to do with their Kunlun, anyway, the two sides open nodes to each other, whether people come from the middle of the river or pass here, as long as they are humans, they can pass freely between the two places - of course, they need to pay a teleportation fee.

In addition to these three fortified and guarded areas, the sand table also marked the locations of the spatial nodes that have been discovered so far, but still remain in their original state. For example, when Huang Chang participated in the Heavenly Demon Festival and killed a six-armed Heavenly Demon, it was almost in the entire sand table, that is, the center of this cross-border space, surrounded by several mountains, but each had a gap channel to connect with the outside world, and it seemed that this cross-border space seemed to be generated around the entrance of the magic space.

"It's an interesting location. The clans entered from various locations, and eventually gathered here to seize the entrance to the Demon Realm...... Doesn't that feel like that?"

Huang Chang smiled casually, and Wang Daoyou next to him also nodded:

"Yes, we felt this way when this sand table was first made. Later, a lot of exploration missions were arranged specifically for that side, but there has been no progress. That magic realm space has never appeared again, and even if you try your best, you can't find a way to open that space node. ”
