Chapter 417: Chapter 258: The Fog Tide Approaches, Flying into the Deep Mountains (Part 2)

He reached the highest point of the peak, looked around, and his expression was slightly serious.

Because everywhere he looked, there was gray mist, only these towering mountain peaks emerged like reefs in the sea.

Didn’t Ma Yufei say the fog in Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain wouldn’t be vast in area? What’s going on here?

Zhao Ya felt puzzled.

At that moment, a rapid sound of breaking through the air suddenly came from overhead, without any hesitation, Zhao Ya swung his hand with a blade.

After a piercing cry, several sturdy bird feathers fluttered down.

Looking up, he saw a giant crane at least seven or eight meters in length circling in the air.

But this giant crane had no trace of elegance, instead, its eyes were bloodshot as it emitted an ominous aura.

And Zhao Ya’s blade just left a shallow mark on its head, not even drawing blood.

Zhao Ya knew this must be the Flying Exotic Beast that Ma Yufei mentioned, perched on this peak.

It seemed quite strong, at least half a step into the Fifth Realm.

But Zhao Ya wasn’t concerned about this.

He immediately noticed a large copper ring on the giant crane’s leg.

An Exotic Beast giant crane with an owner?

Zhao Ya was instantly intrigued.

The only possibility of possessing such an Exotic Beast giant crane in Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain would be the Beast Taming Sect, hiding within.

If this was indeed the case, then today was not in vain.

At least he found traces of the Beast Taming Sect.

At that moment, after hovering in the air for a while, the giant crane dove down again, its wings fluttering, and its serrated, sharp feathers aimed at Zhao Ya, launching a full-on assault.

The attack was surprisingly methodical.

This confirmed Zhao Ya’s previous speculation.

Because when dealing with the Mountain Demon and Ghost Child in Yunxiao County before, Zhao Ya felt the same way.

Zhao Ya dodged the blow with a quick body technique but didn’t draw his blade again; instead, he sheathed it and threw a punch.

Thud.

After a dull thud, the giant crane was shaken several meters away, almost crashing into the cliffs below.

But its wings fluttered, and its form rose again, circling around Zhao Ya continuously.

At the same time, the gray mist had expanded to its peak, almost leveling with the peak top.

Looking at the surge of mist like a sea level, Zhao Ya made up his mind, and wrote a line on the ground.

Then he stood up and beckoned with his finger toward the giant crane in the air.

"Come on, let’s see how I deal with you today."

The giant crane seemed to understand Zhao Ya’s provocation, angrily cried out, and then swooped down again.

Zhao Ya didn’t dodge and waited quietly.

Until the giant crane came close, Zhao Ya could even see the anger in its eyes, then he suddenly jumped.

The giant crane couldn’t stop its momentum and shot forward like a bullet.

At this critical moment, Zhao Ya suddenly stretched out his hand and grabbed the giant crane’s neck.

In the next instant, Zhao Ya was carried away by the immense impact.

The giant crane seemed to perceive Zhao Ya’s intention and deliberately accelerated upwards, twisting its neck to try to fling Zhao Ya off, attempting to kill him.

But Zhao Ya anticipated this, and at the moment he was carried away, his other hand reached over and grabbed the crane’s neck too.

Using both hands forcefully, the crane let out a pained cry, and its upward flight finally slowed.

It still struggled desperately, trying to shake Zhao Ya off.

Zhao Ya gave it no chance, using both arms, he climbed onto its back.

A pungent smell assaulted his senses, but Zhao Ya ignored it, gripping the crane’s neck strongly with one hand while the other formed a fist and struck.

Thud thud thud!

Every punch made the giant crane quiver and cry painfully, its flight in the air becoming erratic, nearly crashing into the peaks several times.

But the effects were immediate, after a few punches, the giant crane became much more docile.

At least it dared not shake its body, trying to throw Zhao Ya off.

Seeing this, Zhao Ya stopped his assault.

He couldn’t kill the crane; otherwise, his plan would be ruined.

Lying on the crane’s back, Zhao Ya looked down.

Below, the mist swirled, and the once towering peaks now turned into small black dots, showing the flying speed’s height.

Although Zhao Ya’s body technique was good, he couldn’t fly this high.

However, Zhao Ya wasn’t scared at all; instead, he felt excited.

The crane seemed aware it couldn’t shake Zhao Ya off on its own, so it turned direction, flying towards the depths of Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain.

Zhao Ya exhaled gently, knowing his plan was half complete.

Now it’s up to his luck.

If lucky, he might find the treasure’s location on the crane and solve the problem quickly.

If unlucky, it’s not a big deal; at least he could find the Beast Taming Sect’s base through the crane.

After stable flying, Zhao Ya held the crane’s neck tightly with one hand to prevent any tricks, while observing the scenery below, contemplating whether he should tame a high-level Flying Exotic Beast after this adventure.
