North of Stone Gate City, a Sky-Reaching Giant Sword is slanted into the mountain, covered in moss and entangled by vines, and beneath the sword is a mountain path leading to the northwest Cuiyun Ridge.
Sword Gate Pass is the boundary between Jieshi Ridge and Cuiyun Road. Beyond Sword Gate Pass, vast primordial forests stretch all the way to the Guixu Beach, the territory of the Rain Dragon Clan.
Lu Nanzhi, as usual, came to wait under Sword Gate Pass. The reason Jiang Yuebai chose this place instead of the city was for easy escape.
From here, one can slip into the forest under Cuiyun Ridge, which is said to be even more complex in terrain than their Ten Thousand Mountains. For Jiang Yuebai, a member of the Demon Clan, the forest is like a backyard. If anything goes wrong, hiding in there is the safest option.
The morning mist was thick, a cold wind blowing from the direction of Cuiyun Ridge, dispersing the sultry heat on this side of Jieshi Ridge.
