Chapter 265: The Five Qi Grandmaster Appears in the Wind and Sand

Deep autumn presented a desolate scene; the fields after harvest stretched bare as far as the eye could see.

In the fields, livestock walked back and forth with drooping heads, and flocks of sparrows occasionally erupted from the wheat fields into the air. Crows circled low in the sky before one let out a cry of despair and flew away.

After obtaining the complete Evil Suppressing Sword, An Jing visited Yu State City once more before hastily heading towards Dongluo Pass.

Zhao Qingmei's letter mentioned that Houjin had been increasingly active recently, and no one knew when the great army might descend from the north, so he had to quicken his pace.

As a Five Qi Grandmaster, Jun Qinglin naturally was extraordinary, capable of reaching Blue Sky Island on Jinghai Road from Dongluo Pass. Although An Jing was only at the Second Qi Cultivation level, practicing the "Nameless Heart Scripture" allowed him to absorb True Qi extremely fast, nearly matching Jun Qinglin's pace.
