Chapter 17: Frost Lion Territory, Lion King's Battle!

Perhaps because being rubbed felt too comfortable, Aisha unconsciously closed her eyes, her face showing an expression of enjoyment.

Her fur became smoother, and the feel improved a lot.

Chen Mo thought.

At this moment, Aisha's appearance had undergone a great change.

Not only did its fur turn snow-white like Chen Mo's, but its pupils became ice-blue, like the purest sapphire, though it did not develop any ice-crystal-like carapace buds on its body.

Lion Mother, watching her two cubs turn into white lions beside her, was somewhat bewildered.

Ah? Could it be that I still have white lion genes!?

After rubbing the "big cat" for a while, Chen Mo threw the uneaten wildebeest from yesterday in front of Aisha.

Today was the final day of Aisha's self-discipline challenge of the Glutton Lion.

Earlier, Aisha's sudden faint made Chen Mo think this self-discipline challenge would come to nothing, but fortunately she woke up in the end.

Now Aisha has awakened to the transcendent, and with the Glutton Lion's overall enhancement of her physique, she should soon grow stronger!

"Roar!"

Feeling the powerful strength surging within her body at this moment, Aisha was extremely excited.

Indeed, Lion King's younger brother hadn't lied to himself—eating meat makes one stronger! All his previous efforts finally bore fruit at this moment! "Roar~" (This is just the beginning~) Chen Mo shook his head.

Aisha's spontaneous awakening was beyond his expectation; he had originally planned to let her obtain the Glutton Lion before attempting awakening.

He hadn't expected Lion Sister to be so promising, awakening on her own.

As Aisha was about to eat, she heard the Lion King's younger brother's low roar, and her gaze froze for a moment.

The younger brother seemed to be saying…… this is only just the beginning? Aisha had never felt she could understand the meaning of the Lion King's younger brother's roar so clearly.

Lions' roars can only roughly convey each other's current emotions and some simple words, but now she seemed able to grasp the specific meaning of her brother's roar! After waking up, she seemed to have become much smarter!

"Roar?" (Will I still get stronger?) Aisha asked in a low growl.

Hearing Aisha's roar, Chen Mo also froze.

He could understand the meaning conveyed by Aisha's roar, and it felt just like communicating with a person.

After awakening to the transcendent, had her wisdom and lion-language proficiency also improved? This made him inexplicably a bit excited.

For the past two months, Chen Mo had been in a state of no communication with anyone.

Although he was among the lion pride, he still felt lonely.

Unbeknownst to him, the human-specific emotions in his soul had been worn away considerably.

After awakening, Aisha's greatly enhanced intellect brought Chen Mo a great surprise.

"Roar!" (Of course, let's eat meat first!)

Chen Mo nodded, let out a roar, then pointed at the uneaten wildebeest in front of Aisha.

"Roar~"

The awakening had consumed a large amount of nutrients in Aisha's body; she was already starving, so she began gulping down the delicious wildebeest meat without regard for appearance.

When Aisha felt she had eaten her fill, she suddenly discovered that the food she had swallowed was being digested by her body at an astonishing speed!

At the same time, she could clearly feel that as the meat was digested, her strength, explosiveness, and all other abilities were growing stronger! Aisha couldn't help but let out an excited roar.

"Roar!" (It looks like you succeeded; as long as you keep eating, your strength will keep growing!)

Chen Mo glanced at the self-discipline panel and saw that Aisha had indeed completed the Glutton Lion challenge; the effect of the Glutton Lion he himself had equipped increased by 10%.

Aisha affectionately rubbed against Chen Mo's body.

She understood that the changes happening to her were surely inseparable from her younger brother's help! "Roar?"

After Aisha finished eating, Chen Mo asked what ability she had awakened.

After achieving transcendence, living beings seem to awaken a special ability.

For example, his Ice Storm, the Hyena Queen's Ice Thorns, and Aisha's Ice Pupil. "Howl!" (Let me try!)

Aisha replied.

It began mobilizing the ice spiritual power within its body.

This ability, as natural as an instinct, was easily unleashed.

The next second, a flash of blue light passed through Aisha's ice-blue pupils, and she immediately discovered her field of view rapidly expanding, instantly spotting a large tree over ten li away.

Aisha wanted to test her limits, to see even farther.

However, before she could try, the blue light in her pupils flickered like a faulty bulb, alternating between bright and dim.

It soon completely dissipated.

Aisha had only just awakened; the ice spiritual power within her was too thin, and it was used up in an instant.

"Roar~" (Seeing farther…… able to penetrate some relatively thin objects……) Aisha haltingly explained the effect of her Ice Pupil to Chen Mo in lion language.

For Aisha, who had just begun to learn lion language, this was still a bit too difficult.

"Roar!" (Not bad!) Chen Mo praised.

Far-sight plus a little penetration.

As her strength increases, this will become a very useful ability.

Afterwards he began to ponder the cause of Aisha's spontaneous awakening this time, wondering if it could be replicated in other lionesses.

"Is it Aisha's own talent? Or having long resided in an area rich with ice spiritual power? Or consuming the flesh of transcendent beings?"

"Or perhaps let a few other lionesses also eat some transcendent beings' flesh to see if it could help them awaken? ————————"

"【Roaring Lion】 Self-discipline Challenge, Day Four."

The lion pride finally arrived before the Great Snow Mountain.

However, Chen Mo discovered that this towering, cloud-piercing snowy mountain range was actually floating above the grassland! Moreover, these majestic, magnificent snow mountains resembled a mirage, appearing hazy and illusory!

He could even pass through the snow mountain, seeing the grassland below covered in white snow.

Just an illusion? But the ice-element spiritual power here is indeed much richer.

Chen Mo roughly sensed it.

If the spiritual energy density where they were before is 1, then at the foot of the Great Snow Mountain it's 5, or even higher! "Roar!"

At this moment, Aisha suddenly let out a low growl, its ice-blue eyes emitting a shimmering blue light, obviously activating the ability 【Ice Gaze】.

Aisha smelled the scent left by other male lions on the ground beneath its feet, and thus used Ice Gaze to check the situation.

Indeed, on the grassland about ten kilometers away, Aisha saw a male lion charging toward them at full speed!

Whoo~

Aisha immediately informed Chen Mo of the situation.

"Roar!" (Don't rush, wait for them to come.) Actually, Chen Mo had already smelled the scent of other male lions on this grassland long ago.

They have already entered the territory of another lion pride.

But Chen Mo doesn't care now.

It possesses extraordinarily exaggerated vision and speed, able to detect other creatures and obtain their relevant information from over 10 kilometers away.

Soon, a white figure appeared in Chen Mo's field of view.

This is a male lion with a white mane, followed by a dozen or so lionesses.
