After staying at the edge of the cliff for two days, Shao Xuan's body had almost recovered, and the injury on his arm had also recovered. However, Chacha's recovery ability was not as strong as Shao Xuan's, so it took him more than ten days to recover.
What surprised Shao Xuan the most was that the giant eagle had also stayed at the cliff for ten days. It did not have a nest here, and it was just a passerby. Every day, after eating its fill, it would stand on a high rock and rest. It had no intention of leaving immediately. And every day, it would share some of the prey with Chacha.
In these ten days, Chacha's tiredness was dispelled, and its mental state was greatly improved. These days, it did not have to worry about food at all. It just focused on recovering.
Shao Xuan went down the mountain to hunt. Without Chacha's help, it would be troublesome to go down the mountain. The giant eagle would not give Shao Xuan a ride.
In addition to food, Shao Xuan also found some herbs and applied them on Chacha's wounds. Originally, he wanted to see if the giant eagle needed help, but seeing that it was very resistant, Shao Xuan temporarily gave up the idea.
When Chacha could fly again, the giant eagle did not plan to stay.
The giant eagle was going to take Chacha in that direction. Shao Xuan did not know if he should follow, stay, or go back directly. With this giant eagle, Chacha should be a lot safer.
However, after Chacha flew, it called out to Shao Xuan, indicating that Shao Xuan should hurry up and follow.
Shao Xuan smiled. Forget it, he would continue to follow. It would be nice to see the legendary Eagle Mountain. He put back the teeth knife in his hand and ran for a while. Then he jumped and caught Chacha's eagle claw flying towards him.
The giant eagle in the sky seemed to be very impatient. It circled in the sky and called out a few times, urging them to hurry up.
"Let's go!" Shao Xuan said.
Swoosh —
With a carefree cry, Chacha flapped its wings and chased after the giant eagle.
This time, Chacha had learned his lesson. He did not get too close to the trees in the forest. He maintained a certain distance, afraid that he would be attacked again.
The flying posture of the giant eagle seemed to be more difficult than it was ten days ago. The heaviness was more obvious, but even so, it was still fast enough for Chacha and Shao Xuan. Chacha could barely keep up.
They would fly during the day and find a place to settle down at night. Before they settled down, they would grab some food and bring it to a high cliff to eat quietly. There was no lack of mountains in this area. Sometimes, they would meet other creatures living in the mountains. Most of the time, it was the giant eagle that was fighting, while Shao Xuan and Chacha were cheering it on. They would be a hindrance if they went there.
Every time the giant eagle fought with other ferocious beasts, Shao Xuan noticed that the injuries on its body increased. The condition of its claws, beak, and feathers was worse than when he first saw it. Only its pair of eagle eyes were so sharp that he couldn't look directly at it.
With such a giant eagle as their escort, the birds along the way did not dare to provoke them, which saved them a lot of trouble.
It had been nearly thirty days since they left the third hunting base, but they still had not seen their destination.
However, Shao Xuan could see the changes in Chacha and the giant eagle's attitude from their behavior. They were excited, and their eyes were eager. Even the giant eagle, who looked like an elder, could not wait.
They were almost at their destination.
On this day, the two eagles, one big and one small, continued their journey. Shao Xuan looked at the surrounding scenery. In front of them, there was a long, dragon-like mountain range. This mountain range was very high, which reminded Shao Xuan of the second hunting base. Most of the birds were blocked by the mountain range.
Every time they encountered such a mountain range, they would see a different scenery after climbing over it.
The peak of the mountain range was covered by clouds, and they could not see the top. They could only see a large area of snow under the clouds.
The giant eagle began to climb up, and Chacha followed closely.
They wanted to climb over the mountain.
Along the way, they had climbed over many mountains, but this time, the challenge was even greater.
The higher they went, the more difficult it was. It seemed that there was a force that pushed back any creature that flew up.
After flying for a while, Chacha was obviously tired, and it rested on a protruding rock.
"Chacha, follow it and fly up. I will stop here." Shao Xuan touched the feathers on Chacha's head and said.
"Caw —"
Chacha dodged Shao Xuan's hand, flapped its wings, and used its claws to grab the rock next to it.
"Are you being stubborn again? I will wait here … "After thinking for a while, Shao Xuan asked again," Will you come back? "
Chacha answered and continued to grab the rock.
"That's good. But it will take too long, so I will go back by myself. " Shao Xuan planned to train in this area. There were many species here that Shao Xuan was unfamiliar with. Perhaps he could find some rare and precious herbs that were recorded in ancient scrolls.
He always stayed in the tribe, and every time he went out, he would only take the same route. After a long time, he was tired. This time, it was a good opportunity to see this unfamiliar place. He wanted to see the so-called Eagle Mountain, but Chacha was still too small. It was normal for it to travel, but this place was different. It was difficult for it to fly on its own, not to mention carrying a person.
The giant eagle above them began to urge them again.
Chacha was still a little hesitant, so it called out to the eagle above.
"Hurry up and follow it!" It was rare for him to ride on such a big leg. If he lost it, where would he find it again?
Shao Xuan was talking when he suddenly felt a wind behind his head. He turned his head and saw a giant eagle claw coming at him.
Because the claw did not have any killing intent, Shao Xuan did not pull out his teeth knife.
Standing on the ground, the eagle was almost ten meters tall, so its claws were naturally much bigger than Chacha's. It could even catch a big snake, so it was easy for it to catch Shao Xuan.
After the giant eagle caught Shao Xuan, it flew up. Chacha looked at it and quickly followed.
The giant eagle's claws were obviously used to catching prey, so it could not control its strength. Shao Xuan was caught by the eagle's claws. He felt that his internal organs were about to be squeezed out, and his bones were cracking. If it were not for the strong body of a totem warrior, an ordinary person would have been crushed to death.
However, the giant eagle had good intentions. After spending some time together, the giant eagle did not dislike Shao Xuan as much as before. Seeing that Chacha was having a hard time carrying Shao Xuan, it decided to help. However, it did not know that there were many creatures that were much weaker than the prey it usually caught.
Without Shao Xuan, Chacha felt a lot more relaxed, but he still couldn't fly fast. The pressure coming from the front seemed to be an invisible big hand, pressing down harder every time he rose a little.
Not only Chacha, but also the giant eagle. Shao Xuan's weight was nothing to the giant eagle. It was just resisting the pressure from above.
The mountains in front of them were already covered in snow. There was no greenery, but they still could not see the top. Looking up, they could only see layers of clouds.
The cold air poured into his lungs. At first, Shao Xuan could still withstand it. It was similar to the winter in the tribe. However, as he continued to climb, Shao Xuan found that even a totem warrior could not withstand the cold.
The fur on his animal skin coat was already covered in frost, and the area of ice was expanding.
Not only the animal skin coat, Shao Xuan's hair, the giant eagle's and Chacha's feathers were also freezing.
There was light above, but the golden Yang Guang did not let people feel much warmth at this time.
If it was at night, it would probably be even colder. They had to quickly climb over before it got dark.
Mobilizing the totem power in his body, a warm current flowed around his body, warming up his almost frozen body. However, once it stopped, he would feel the biting cold again.
When Shao Xuan felt that he was about to freeze into a popsicle, he finally saw the top of the mountain.
This made Shao Xuan, who was about to turn into a popsicle, and Chacha, who was already exhausted, happy. Chacha flapped its wings more vigorously.
Closer.
Even closer.
Slowly climbing up, over the cloud-shrouded mountain peak, Shao Xuan's pupils shrank as he looked at the scene in front of him.
He thought that after reaching the top, he would descend and go to the other side of the mountain. However, when he reached the top, he found that there was only flat ground.
Bang!
The giant eagle landed on the ice field at the top of the mountain.
Shao Xuan, who was thrown away, rolled a few times on the frozen ground before stopping.
There was a thick layer of snow on the ground, but the snow was very hard, like stone.
Looking behind him, there was a layer of clouds. It was as if he had stepped on the clouds and entered the realm of heaven. However, looking ahead, there were clouds and mist, and he could not see clearly what was in front of him.
However, Shao Xuan could feel that there were other living creatures in the lingering clouds and mist.
After the giant eagle released Shao Xuan, it panted for a while and then walked forward.
Chacha quickly followed.
The cold mist filled the air, and Shao Xuan walked beside them.
When he turned his head, he could only see a layer of mist. The place where he had landed had disappeared into the mist.
On the surrounding ground, there were some protruding crystal-like icicles. One could be seen every few dozen meters.
Kacha!
Kacha kacha!
Shao Xuan looked around. There were similar sounds coming from all directions. Some were near, some were far.
However, Shao Xuan did not dare to be distracted. He and Chacha followed closely beside the giant eagle.
Tap — tap —
Footsteps came from behind. It was the eagle's footsteps.
A flow of cold air came from behind, and Shao Xuan shuddered.
As the footsteps came closer, Shao Xuan turned his head to look. What he saw shocked Shao Xuan so much that he stopped breathing.
Because of the mist, Shao Xuan could not see clearly. He could only see a huge black figure in the mist. If Chacha was like a kindergarten kid next to the giant eagle, then the giant eagle was also like a child next to this big guy next to it.
Was this also … a giant mountain eagle?
Shao Xuan used his special vision to look. Although it was still blocked by the mist, he could vaguely make out the skeleton of a giant mountain eagle.
He took a deep breath.
Shao Xuan suddenly felt that his vision was too narrow. A giant mountain eagle, with the word "giant" attached to its name, could be seen from its size. The one they had seen before was not a typical example of this species. He just did not know if there were more giant eagles.
Among these big guys, Shao Xuan felt waves of pressure. It was as if he had fallen into a nest of monsters.
Looking at the two eagles, one big and one small, in front of him, Shao Xuan hurriedly followed. No matter what, following them closely was the best thing to do.
The big eagle led Chacha to walk in the misty land. When they came to a protruding crystal-like icicle, the big eagle lowered its head and bit the icicle. It pecked off a piece of the icicle, bit it, swallowed it, and then continued.
Chacha looked at it and pecked at the ice as well.
Hearing the cracking sounds, Shao Xuan finally understood where the sounds came from.
