Soul Devouring Sword Master

"In fact, the border of our Xianjian Mountain was not the Changyun Mountains at the beginning, but Penghu, hundreds of miles away. However, in recent years, the Xueluo Sect has been invading continuously, causing our defense line to retreat again and again, and we have been retreating here."

Hong Hai said.

"In fact, we haven't had many battles with the Blood Luo Sect over the years. Fierce fighting only occurs when we attack the base. Most of the time, it's mutual attacks between camps. We set up camps to expand our territory, and the Blood Luo Sect is the same. They want to attack and compress our place, gain an advantage little by little, and keep forcing us to the vicinity of our base, and then start a large-scale attack, wanting to take down our base in one fell swoop."

"So, don't think that there may be hundreds or even thousands of people fighting on both sides here. This situation rarely happens. Most of the time, it's a fight between forces. When the advantages of the accumulation reach a certain point, a decisive key battle will occur. This is the general situation here in the Changyun Mountains."

"So, in the two months you are here, there shouldn't be any large-scale killings, but large-scale battles and battles between teams are still common. I hope you can be prepared."

As they spoke, the team had arrived at the next line of defense.

The first line of defense has a total of three main cities. They just stayed in one of them for a while, and then went directly to the periphery of the Changyun Mountains.

Not only them, but also figures flew past from time to time in the three main cities, including those in the rear. Some went out and some came back.

Lin Xiao saw that some people were carrying corpses with bloodstained clothes. Many people saw it and just passed by indifferently, as if they were used to it.

There were also people who lost an arm or a leg and were wrapped in cloth strips, but they could still talk and laugh with the people around them, as if they had already looked down on life and death.

The further they went to the periphery, the more similar scenes there were. Lin Xiao and others felt that the atmosphere had become a little different. On the periphery of this defense line, there was death and blood.

"Don't be nervous. Today, we will only take you for a walk on the periphery. It won't be too far."

Hong Hai said.

Soon, the group came to the periphery of the mountain range. The periphery was still forests and peaks. Occasionally, birds flew by. It seemed very quiet, but it gave people a feeling of murderous intent.

"Let's go!"

After a while, under the leadership of Hong Hai, the group came to a camp.

Tents were set up in the camp. At a glance, there were about dozens of people. Some were patrolling nearby, some were sharpening weapons, and some were chatting.

Every three days, the people in each camp would rotate.

Lin Xiao and his team came to the camp closest to the defense line. There were many similar camps ahead, and some places might be fighting.

"Old Yu, what's going on?"

Hong Hai smiled as the group walked into the camp.

"Last night, some scumbags from the Blood Luo Sect attacked, and some people died in the camps ahead, but the Blood Luo Sect also lost two corpse kings,"

A gray-haired old man replied, "but those corpses were taken away by them!"

"These bastards have been attacking more and more frequently recently. I remember that not long ago, they destroyed two camps, and only two people escaped back by chance. One of them died later due to corpse poisoning."

Hong Hai clenched his fists slightly, his face sank.

"Alas, there is no way. These guys have martial corpses, and the cost of obtaining intelligence is much higher than ours. In a protracted war, intelligence is too important."

Old Yu shook his head and sighed, and then his eyes fell on Lin Xiao and the others, "Are these people new?"

"The annual district competition has begun. This time, the district competition has been overhauled. The ranking will be based on the enemy kill record on the battlefield. These people are assigned to my team."

Hong Hai explained.

"I see."

Old Yu glanced at Lin Xiao and the others, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised a curve, and then shook his head.

Although the other party was nothing, Lin Xiao could feel the other party's disdain and contempt.

No wonder, for those of them who have been on the battlefield for many years and fought hard on the front line, those who have been "living a life of luxury" in Xianjian Mountain most of the time must not have too many good fortunes

It is equivalent to their fighting on the front line, which has brought them peace and security in the rear, and their status is not as good as the latter, and they must be somewhat unbalanced in their hearts.

But there is no way, this is determined by talent. Those with limited talent either leave or come to the battlefield, while those with good talent will continue to be cultivated by Xianjian Mountain, and may become elders or join the general area.

The elders here in Changyun Mountain Range were all canonized according to their military merits after coming to the battlefield for many years. Strictly speaking, they are somewhat different from those elders of Xianjian Mountain.
