An hour later.
Lin Xuan then walked out of the conference room, his expression solemn.
There isn't much information about Hangu Pass, but he spent an hour studying it because he was very careful and didn't want to miss any useful information.
"Hangu Pass is actually related to the ancient Heavenly Court."
Lin Xuan's eyes gleamed as he muttered to himself, "In my past life, there was a story about Lao Tzu going west out of Hangu Pass and converting the barbarians to Buddhism."
It seems that Hangu Pass in this era is even more steeped in legend.
Based on what Lin Xuan learned in the past hour, Hangu Pass in this world seems to be located on the border of the outer heavens.
Beyond Hangu Pass lies another dimension of time and space.
It is an endless stream of evil spirits.
Although the Great Xia Dynasty only established Shanhaiguan in the Outer Heavens, in fact, Shanhaiguan was not the only pass used to block demons and evil spirits.
Everyone says that Shanhaiguan is the front line of the battlefield.
This idea is actually wrong. Shanhaiguan is in a remote area and can only be considered a logistics supply base.
Because what they were facing were only some evil spirits located in the outer heavens.
The demons and monsters in the outer heavens are only a very small part of the real army of demons and monsters.
The true army of demons, or the strongest among them.
Evil gods, or powerful demons comparable to celestial beings or evil gods, actually reside beyond the heavens.
Hangu Pass is located on the border of the outer heavens.
It is the true front line to stop evil spirits. In addition, the same applies to places like the Ten Thousand Mountains and the Dark Demon Abyss.
Within the vast mountains, there are rifts in time and space, leading to the heavens beyond the heavens.
The Dark Abyss itself is a spacetime rift that connects to another demon world.
In addition, there are countless secret realms and forbidden areas, which are also connected to the outer realms and are invaded by demons and evil spirits.
However, compared to the Ten Thousand Mountains, the Dark Demon Abyss, and the area outside Hangu Pass, it is much more difficult to compare.
The number of evil spirits invading other areas is significantly less.
It is not on the same level as the Ten Thousand Mountains, the Dark Demon Abyss, and Hangu Pass, especially Hangu Pass, which is the most dangerous place.
Because the demons and monsters outside Hangu Pass are the most numerous and the strongest.
After reading this information, Lin Xuan was completely dumbfounded, shocked, and incredulous.
He originally thought that all evil spirits resided in the outer heavens.
Shanhaiguan was the biggest barrier for the Great Xia Dynasty to defend against evil spirits; other places were merely auxiliary and supplementary.
Who would have thought that Shanhaiguan was just an auxiliary logistics base?
"No wonder, there are so few special military units stationed inside Shanhaiguan..."
Lin Xuan sighed deeply.
At the same time, his expression became increasingly solemn.
The dangers of Hangu Pass were far greater than he had anticipated.
However, Lin Xuan was not intimidated by this. The more dangerous and challenging the situation, the greater the opportunity.
Monsters are treasures from head to toe; the higher their level, the more precious they are.
Hunting down just one means a great harvest.
Lin Xuan believed that with him in charge, the strength of the Shanhe Army would definitely improve further if they could stay at Hangu Pass for a year.
Currently, the strength of the entire Shanhe Army is at least at the second level of the Purple Mansion Realm, which is not Lin Xuan's goal.
In his vision, the future 100,000 soldiers of the Mountain and River Army will all be at least at the Refinement of Void Realm.
Even life-or-death situations.
If that day ever comes, he could sweep across the entire world without any problem.
"grown ups……"
Suddenly, just as Lin Xuan's mind was racing, Tie Dachui walked over, bowed to Lin Xuan, and said, "General Gu Feng has arrived."
"Gu Feng, what is he doing here?"
Lin Xuan raised an eyebrow, recalling the scene inside the military headquarters building, and his expression immediately turned cold.
Subconsciously, he wanted Tie Dachui to send Gu Feng away.
But then he thought for a moment and said in a deep voice, "Take him to the reception room. I'll be there in a bit."
He wanted to see what Gu Feng was up to.
Half an hour later.
Reception room.
Lin Xuan strode in and saw Gu Feng leisurely drinking tea in the reception room. Upon seeing Lin Xuan enter, Gu Feng immediately put down his teacup, stood up, and bowed to Lin Xuan, saying, "Greetings, Commander..."
As Gu Feng bowed to Lin Xuan, he couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
It has a hint of bitterness.
There was a time when this young man before me was someone I could only barely respect.
It hasn't been long, and now he's still a Divine General, while Lin Xuan has become a Town General. Every time they meet, he has to bow to him.
Gu Feng felt increasingly bitter at the thought.
At the same time, they were secretly shocked by Lin Xuan's growth rate, which was simply astonishing.
"Gu Feng, what brings you here? It seems I've already given you the Earth Core Spirit Pill! There's nothing more between us now..."
Lin Xuan glanced at Gu Feng without showing any emotion and casually asked.
The Earth Core Divine Pill was the pill that Gu Feng had asked him for. After making things difficult for Gu Feng, Lin Xuan finally gave it to him.
From then on, they had no further connection.
Now that Gu Feng has suddenly come to his door, especially at this time of day, he is very suspicious of Gu Feng's purpose in coming.
"General, I have come here today on the orders of General Duan to deliver something to you."
Gu Feng smiled wryly and didn't dare to say anything more. He immediately took out a piece of blood jade the size of a baby's palm and handed it to Lin Xuan, saying, "My lord, General Duan said that your journey to Hangu Pass is fraught with danger, so you must be careful."
If you encounter a problem that you can't solve, you can crush this blood jade.
"When the time comes, someone will naturally come to lend you a hand..."
