Su Mo and the others had a fairly smooth journey.
They did not encounter any enemies. They did come across a patrol composed of five hundred living beings, but fortunately, they belonged to the same camp and came from an Eighth-Rank Heavenly Pavilion faction, so no misunderstanding arose between the two sides.
In the end, they safely arrived at an outpost.

Within the fortress was a mine shaft that led straight underground.
Although they had long received notification from Kun City, Su Mo and the others still underwent strict questioning and inspection before entering the fortress.
Three thousand living beings were stationed within the fortress, also from a Ninth-Rank Heavenly Pavilion. After completing the handover with Su Mo and the others, they withdrew.
For the next period of time, the more than two thousand living beings from the Star Luo Heavenly Pavilion, under Wu Sun's command, would guard this fortress, protect the mine shaft, and watch over the area spanning tens of thousands of li around the fortress.
This fortress possessed powerful array formations, capable of both attack and defense, and everything had been handed over to the Star Luo Heavenly Pavilion.
