Chapter 72 (1/2)

The stone forest covered a rather wide area. Currently Zhang Che could only see the aerial beast circling in the sky from afar. He hadn’t seen any of the Tian Yin Squad members yet.

However, Zhang Che did overhear very faint voices conversing, but they were a little too far away. He couldn’t hear what they were talking about.

They were most likely discussing about how to shoot that aerial beast down from the sky, right?

-But there is only one aerial beast. How will they guarantee that it would drop a beast card after killing it?-, Zhang Che wondered. He moved carefully, inching deeper into the stone forest.

That flying beast couldn’t hold it in any longer after circling a few more rounds. It beat its wings, and dove down at a frightening speed.

In the next moment, imperceptible arrows shot up from the stone forest one after another, aiming at the diving aerial beast with a sharp whistling sound.

The flying beast let out a sharp cry. It beat its wings, generating a chaotic wind that neutralized most of the arrows. The remaining handful of arrows hit its body, but were deflected by its shockingly tough feathers.

“Damn, how ferocious!” Zhang Che gasped with his eyes wide. He didn’t dare to imagine how strong this exotic beast was.

As they were too far apart, Zhang Che was unable to see the aerial beast’s attributes. Curious about it, he couldn’t help but hasten his steps.

At the same time, Zhang Che was feeling very doubtful.

First, it had already been several hours. The Tian Yin Squad was obviously helpless against this exotic beast, but why were they still unwilling to leave?

Second, the aerial beast was similarly unable to do a thing to the Tian Yin Squad’s beastmasters. Why was it still tangling itself with them?

This fellow was a flying-type exotic beast. If it was unwilling to fight, it could just beat its wings and fly away immediately. Why was it acting so stubbornly?

-Perhaps the Tian Yin Squad members killed its offspring, or maybe they took its egg?-

Zhang Che couldn’t wrap his mind around this matter, and he could only continue going further into the stone forest carefully.

—

In the skies over on the other side, the aerial beast continued diving down after deflecting the arrows. When it came within a hundred meters above the stone forest, a dark streak of light suddenly shot up into the sky like a bolt of lightning, whizzing straight toward the aerial beast’s eye.

It was like a great enemy was upon the aerial beast once the dark streak shot out. Unable to avoid it, the aerial beast could only use its sharp beak to peck at it, clashing against the dark light.

Dang! A crisp sound of metal clashing rang out. Zhang Che actually saw sparks flying in the air.

Under the violent clash, the dark streak of light shattered into countless pieces, scattering in all directions. Meanwhile, the aerial beast let out a pained reverberating cry. It beats its wings fiercely, soaring higher up into the sky.

It was obvious that there was a swordsmanship expert among the beastmasters of the Tian Yin Squad, and his archery skills was even first-rate, to be able to fend off against such a powerful exotic beast’s attack.

This also made Zhang Che even more curious. What exactly was in this stone forest that made the Tian Yin Squad and the aerial beast battle on for such a long time?

When the aerial beast couldn’t contain itself any longer and swooped down once more, Zhang Che finally saw its attributes.
