Chapter 60: Military Conquest! Kill the Chicken to Scare the Monkey!

"Cheep~" (It's too late, I'm heading back first.)

The Snow Treading Fox Leader saw the Ice Spirit lost in thought, didn't continue persuading, and prepared to leave.

Going overboard, saying too much easily makes the Ice Spirit suspicious.

The timing is just right now.

After the Snow Treading Fox Leader left, the Ice Spirit Leader gathered all Ice Spirits to discuss where the tribe should go next.

After two days of continuously searching for the Regional Spirit with no results, the Ice Spirit tribe was still quite anxious.

Finally, they decided to secretly go take a look at the snow mountain where the Snow Treading Fox originally lived.

If what the Snow Treading Fox Leader said is true, joining the Lion King's camp would also be a good option.

The next day, similar scenes also occurred among the Frost Hound, Snowstorm Horse, and many other tribes.

This is Chen Mo's plan.

He doesn't need these tribes to immediately seek Chen Mo's protection or help.

Instead, he gives them a sense of crisis and plants a seed.

As long as he adds a bit more pressure, some tribe will surely proactively contact Chen Mo.

【Teach Lion】Self-discipline Challenge Day 5.

Early in the morning, Chen Mo opened his eyes.

At the cave entrance, Lion Sister was gulping down cola.

On the day of his promotion, Chen Mo shared the 【Otaku Coke Lion】 with Lion Sister; this title greatly boosts defense.

Aisha is already accustomed to gaining abilities through special training.

Besides Lion Sister, Chen Mo shared the new self-discipline quota with Frost Lion Overlord.

Chen Mo saw his enterprising spirit and the contributions he made to the lion tribe.

This time Chen Mo shared with him the 【Gluttony Lion】; for Overlord, it doesn't even require deliberate effort to achieve.

When the seventh day arrives.

He plans to reward Overlord with the bestowed "Divine Meat" to make him appear to have the 【Gluttony Lion】 ability, a display of holiness before the lions.

Seeing Chen Mo wake up, Aisha walked over and rubbed his head.

"Roar~" (Brother, are we setting out?) Chen Mo nodded.

Today they need to expand outward, attempting to conquer a nearby snow mountain.

Chen Mo led the lion tribe in a swift charge, crossing three snow mountains.

Finally, they arrived at the foot of a snow mountain.

According to the Snow Treading Fox Leader, crystal deer inhabit this great snow mountain, the most timid tribe on the great snow mountain.

If not for the ancient era's clear rule on the great snow mountain forbidding royal descendants from preying on each other and killing,

the crystal deer would probably have already gone extinct by then.

The chance that the crystal deer have a trump card is slim, and even if they did, the likelihood they would resist is also low.

The crystal deer are the "chicken" in Chen Mo's plan to "kill the chicken to scare the monkeys." Chen Mo entered the snow mountain where the crystal deer live, preparing to lead the lion tribe in an encirclement and annihilation.

"Yo yo~"

Upon seeing the Lion King, the crystal deer herd let out a "yo yo" call and then bolted.

Although the deer's cry is like that, Chen Mo always felt a mocking tone.

Can't bear it! "Roar!"

He locked his gaze on a crystal deer whose overall combat strength clearly surpassed the others, activated his frenzied form, and gave chase.

This one is likely the crystal deer leader.

Aisha, Overlord, and the other lions each selected a target and began frantic pursuit.

Chen Mo's speed now exploded to the extreme; in the blink of an eye, he closed the distance to a few hundred meters! Seeing the Ice Lion King closing in behind, the crystal deer leader felt utter panic.

Confident in its own speed, it originally thought it could escape the Lion King's pursuit, but never expected the Ice Lion King's speed to be so fast!

At this rate, it will surely be caught! In the next instant—

The crystal deer leader suddenly turned its head and then slid to a kneel on the ground.

This maneuver left Chen Mo stunned.

Afterwards, the crystal deer leader hastily pulled a strand of through-heart ice silk from its fur, wanting to communicate with the Ice Lion King.

Chen Mo did not refuse.

"Yo yo~" (Lion King, we are willing to submit!)

The crystal deer leader said without any backbone.

Just yesterday, it had also heard the news that voluntarily submitting to the Lion King would allow them to keep their original land.

After all, who doesn't have a few decent "allied" tribes!

The crystal deer leader got this news from the Ice Spirit side.

However, relying on its impressive speed, the crystal deer leader still wanted to struggle a bit.

As long as they find the Regional Spirit, they need not worry about the Ice Lion King and other tribes invading.

But unexpectedly, the Lion King arrived the next day, erupting with such terrifying speed that they didn't even have a chance to flee.

The huge gap in strength made it feel hopeless.

So it chose to simply "surrender."

"Roar!" (Too late!) the Ice Lion King's voice was calm and indifferent.

As soon as the words fell, Chen Mo unleashed the Ice Wind Roar.

His original plan was to use the Crystal Deer tribe to establish prestige, applying a bit of pressure on other races.

He needed to create a phenomenon showing that the outcome after being forcibly conquered by the lion pride would be miserable, so that other races would feel afraid.

The more severely the Crystal Deer leader is injured, the more miserable the fate of the Crystal Deer tribe after being conquered, and the greater the sense of crisis among other races.

The wild wind howled, and the terrifying sound wave, carrying a mental shock, swept outward in all directions.

Several nearby Crystal Deer were directly stunned.

Under the effect of the roaring lion, the lion's roar spread tens of li outward, and the creatures of the nearby snow mountains could hear it clearly.

The Crystal Deer leader was also shaken by the sound wave, his head spinning, but he didn't faint outright; he tried to flee, yet was firmly pressed down by the Ice Lion King coming from the front.

The huge disparity in size and strength left it almost unable to move!

Soon, the lions returned one after another, each having captured quite a few Crystal Deer.

Aisha, moreover, caught five using the Soul Snow.

Of course, a considerable number of Crystal Deer fled to other territories.

Chen Mo didn't bother with these escaped Crystal Deer, or rather, he deliberately let them go.

He needed "witnesses" to spread the fate of the Crystal Deer tribe.

"Roar!" (Xiongba, round them up and keep watch.) Chen Mo instructed Frost Lion Xiongba, then took the little white mouse, activated "Mountain Patrol Mode", and set out to find the local spirit of this area.

2 hours later.

A pale blue column of light rose on the snow mountain.

The nearby supernatural beings, upon seeing the light pillar, did not come to join the fun.

After all, they had all heard that terrifying lion's roar earlier.

It's the Ice Lion King!

【Teaching Lion】Self-discipline Challenge, Day 6 Morning.

On Snow Fox Mountain, apparitions of ice phantoms appeared in groups.

"Ling ling~ ling?" (Ice Crystal Leader, we want to seek the Ice Lion Sir's protection; could you recommend us?) Ice Phantom Leader Ke Lan opened his mouth to ask the Ice Crystal Leader.
