Chapter 140 – The ice layer at the mountaintop (2/2)

But the eagle was full of good intentions. This period of time of being together made the giant eagle no longer keep away from Shao Xuan. It found Chacha had great difficulty in flying with Shao Xuan, so it offered a hand. But it did not know there were many creatures much more vulnerable than its prey.

Though without Shao Xuan, Chacha’s burden was lifted, it still could not fly fast due to the increasing pressure. It seemed that there was an invisible big hand pressing him down with increased force when he rose a little.

Chacha had such a feeling, and so did the giant eagle. Shao Xuan’s weight was a piece of cake for the giant eagle, but it had to resist the pressure from below to higher.

The mountain they saw was covered by snow and ice. Neither green plants, nor the top, could be seen. When they looked up, they could only see layers of clouds.

The cold air poured into their lungs. In the beginning, Shao Xuan could stand it, for it was as cold as the winter in the tribe. But as they continued to rise, Shao Xuan found that even a totem warrior could not withstand such bitter cold.

His animal skin coat began to be covered with white frost, and the range of frosting was expanding.

In addition to his animal skin coat, his hair, the feathers of the giant eagle and Chacha were also being frozen.

Above them there was some light, but the golden sunshine at this time could not make them feel warm.

If it was at night, it probably would be colder. Therefore, they had to reach before it got dark.

Shao Xuan circulated the power of the totem in his body, so that the warm flow would make his whole body warm. But once he stopped mobilizing the power, he would feel the bitter cold again.

When Shao Xuan felt he was almost frozen into a popsicle, he finally saw the top of the mountain.

This pleased the frozen Shao Xuan and the exhausted Chacha. Chacha began flapping his wings energetically.

Close.

Closer.

They ascended slowly, and then went over the clouds around the top. Looking at the scene in front of him, Shao Xuan’s pupils contracted slightly.

He originally thought that after he went over the top and descended, he would get to the other side of the mountain. But in fact, when they arrived at the top, they saw a flat ground.

Bang!

The giant eagle landed on the ice layer at the top of the mountain.

Having been thrown away, Shao Xuan rolled over on the frozen ground before he stopped.

The ground was covered with thick snow, and the snow was as hard as stone.

Behind them was a cloud layer. He felt that he rode on the clouds, and stepped into paradise. But when he looked at the front, the clouds blocked everything, so he could not see what was in the front.

However, Shao Xuan could feel that in these clouds, there were other living creatures.

After the giant eagle let Shao Xuan go, it took a rest and then moved forward.

Chacha hurried to keep up with it.

The cold fog permeated the air. Shao Xuan walked near them.

When he turned around, he could only see the fog. The place they had landed in disappeared into the fog,

On the ground, there were some prominent crystal-like icicles, which could be seen every few tens of meters.

Crack!

Crack! Crack!

Shao Xuan looked around, and heard the same sound coming from all directions. Some sounds were near, and some were far from him.

But Shao Xuan did not dare to be distracted. He closely followed the giant eagle with Chacha.

Da~ da~

Behind them, the sound of footsteps came. It was the sound of an eagle’s footsteps.

A gust of cold wind blowing from the back made Shao Xuan shiver.

With the sound of footsteps getting closer, Shao Xuan turned his head to look. What he saw made him gasp.

Because of the fog, Shao Xuan did not see it clearly. He could only see a huge black figure in the fog. Compared with the giant eagle, Chacha was as small as a kid. But compared with this big guy, the giant eagle was as small as a kid.

Was this also… a giant mountain eagle?

Shao Xuan looked at it with his special vision, although it was still blocked by fog, he could vaguely see the eagle’s skeleton.

He took a deep cold breath.

Shao Xuan suddenly felt that he really had a narrow horizon. The size of the giant eagle could be imagined according to its name. The one that he had seen before was not typical of its kind. It was unknown whether there were bigger giant eagles.

Among these big guys, Shao Xuan felt tense, as if he fell into a monster den.

Looking at the large eagle and the small one in front of him, Shao Xuan quickly kept up with them. Anyway, he had better follow them at the moment.

The giant eagle led the small Chacha out of this land surrounded by clouds and fog. When they came to a protruding crystal-shaped icicle, the giant eagle lowered its head to bite the icicle. It pecked off a piece, then gave it a bite. He swallowed it and then continued to peck another.

Chacha had a look and also pecked the icicle.
