Chapter 300: Unifying the Southern Territory Mountains.
While everyone marveled at the unmatched combat prowess of the Godspeed Golden Eagle,
in the Southern Territory Mountains, Su Lin, who now stood at the summit of Saraiel Mountaintop, was overlooking the many species that had submitted to him.
Among them were millions of various rodent species from the Southern Territory Mountains, tens of thousands of serpents, and over a thousand Monster Level Exotic Beasts gathered by Bai Die, as well as about thirty to forty thousand Monster Level and below Exotic Beasts.
This nearly included the vast majority of Variant Species in the Southern Territory Mountains!
The remaining ones that had not submitted had already become blood food, stored in two caves designated for food storage.
The flesh of ordinary species was stored in one cave, while the flesh of Variant Species was piled up in another, due to the higher temperature in the Southern Territory Mountains, which made it difficult to store the flesh of ordinary species for a long period.
However, Su Lin left behind several strands of Origin Power in the cave storing the ordinary flesh, because his Origin Power carried an Ice Cold Qi that could prevent the flesh from spoiling.
The flesh of ordinary species could serve as the basic food supply for the Wolf Pack.
After coming out from the resource-scarce Arctic Tundra, Su Lin was still accustomed to utilizing all available resources to their fullest extent.
Now, there were about seven to eight hundred thousand tons of ordinary flesh and about three hundred thousand tons of Variant Species flesh stored in the caves.
It could be said that for the past two months, the Silver Ringed Pit Viper, Black Rat, and Bai Die had been executing their orders to the letter.
The entire Southern Territory Mountains had been scoured, and almost everything that hadn't submitted to the Wolf Pack had been hunted down to become food reserves.
At this moment, Su Lin gazed down commandingly at the Silver Ringed Pit Viper, Black Rat, Bai Die, and the many species under their command.
According to the reward rules Su Lin had announced during the Wolf Pack's three-month period, all three of them qualified for promotion to High Ranking Lead Wolf!
However, those were the reward rules for the original senior members of the Wolf Pack!
But in the Wolf Pack, merit always received its reward, and the strong were respected,
thus, for their great military achievements and significantly expanding the three factions of the Wolf Pack, the Silver Ringed Pit Viper, Black Rat, and Bai Die all leaped over several ranks and were directly promoted to the status of Lead Wolf, temporarily commanding their respective clans.
As for the Exotic Beasts under Bai Die's command,
during this period, Su Lin promoted ten Exotic Beasts to the status of Beta Wolf to assist Bai Die in the command.
These ten Exotic Beasts also had tremendous potential for growth, having been selected from such a vast number of Exotic Beasts in the Southern Territory Mountains.
Su Lin gave each of these ten Exotic Beasts a code name.
One of them, a fierce tiger covered in scars, possessed the strength attributes of a Level Thirty-three, making it a Near King Level existence.
This tiger was extremely aggressive and possessed high combat power, a solitary Exotic Beast.
The tiger had Four Great Talents, including a Blood Battle Talent similar to the Lone Wolf Berserk Talent, both of which granted increasing ferocity and strength as wounds were sustained in battle.
Because this tiger had great potential for growth and had clearly submitted to Bai Die through force,
Su Lin also applied Soul Connection, embedding a Spiritual Soul Thread within the tiger, and gave it the code name Evil Tiger!
The Evil Tiger was the strongest Exotic Beast, aside from the Silver Ringed Pit Viper, Black Rat, and Bai Die.
The second Exotic Beast was a Sable Rat with Spiritual Soul Force, possessing strength attributes of Level Thirty-one, and three major Spiritual Talents, giving it also a formidable combat power.
Because of its purple body, Su Lin named it Purple Sable.
The third Exotic Beast was a Level Thirty brown bear, measuring about seventeen to eighteen meters,
with a scar across its bear face, given the code name Scarface Bear.
The fourth Exotic Beast was the flying creature Lammergeier, with strength attributes of Level Twenty-nine.
It had the divine Talent of Divine Descent, which could greatly enhance its strength, thus received the code name Divine Eagle.
The fifth Exotic Beast was a wild cat, with strength attributes of Level Twenty-nine, fierce and ruthless, codenamed Ferocious Cat.
As for the sixth to tenth Exotic Beasts, they all had strength attributes of Twenty-eight or Twenty-nine, and their combat power was formidable as well.
They were codenamed Grey Shepherd, Red Wolf, Feral Pig, Floral Fox, and Mad Cow, respectively!
These ten Exotic Beasts all became Beta Wolves, helping Bai Die govern tens of thousands of Exotic Beasts.
After truly unifying the Southern Territory Mountains, it was undeniable that the number of species in a single Southern Territory Mountains exceeded the entire Arctic Tundra by dozens of times or more!
Now, the tens of thousands of Exotic Beasts under Bai Die's command were more powerful than the entire Wolf Pack when they first stepped out of the Arctic Tundra.
As for the high-end combat power, creatures like Bai Die and Evil Tiger might not match the Invincible Fierce Tiger, Ink Blood Caltrop Fruit, or Arctic Yan-Ou, but in mid-level combat power, they would absolutely annihilate the Wolf Pack as it dared to step out of the Arctic Tundra.
Now, two months had passed, and the Wolf Pack had been expanding and slaughtering without any restraints. It was likely that their strength had reached an unprecedented level.
Apart from the Exotic Beasts led by Bai Die, Su Lin also promoted several Beta Wolves within the Serpent Swarm led by the Silver Ringed Pit Viper and the Rodent Group led by the Black Rat, assisting in the governance of their clans.
Among the hundreds of thousands of serpent swarm and millions of rodent group, there were also many strong Variant Species.
The Serpent Swarm had three poisonous snakes and four pythons promoted to the Beta Wolf status, while the Rodent Group had two Spiritual Type Exotic Rats and seven Giant Rats promoted to the Beta Wolf status.
The strength of these Variant Species was all at the Twenty-eight or Twenty-nine Level.
As for the number of Variant Species within the hundreds of thousands of Serpent Swarm and millions of Rodents, they were also numerous,
so the Serpent Swarm and Rodent Group, once they swarm together, would be no less formidable than the Exotic Beasts led by Bai Die.
After unifying the Southern Territory Mountains, the three forces that Su Lin had acquired were all not inferior to his own Wolf Pack.

From this, it's also evident just how scarce Arctic species and resources are.
After reviewing the three powers he had newly acquired, Su Lin let out a long and resonant wolf's howl, tinged with spiritual waves, that spread throughout the hundred miles of terrain!
Simultaneously, the accompanying screams and roars of millions of creatures under his command echoed forth.
The scale of the sound was unimaginably vast!
These creatures, while not as fanatical or devout as the former members of the wolf pack, felt a divine-like oppressive presence from Su Lin that weighed heavily on the hearts of every species. Moreover, the grisly slaughter instigated by the Silver Ringed Pit Viper, Black Rat, and Bai Die in the Southern Territory Mountains added to their fear.
This caused an innate terror of the Wolf King at the peak of the mountain to take root in their hearts.
Since Su Lin possessed an extremely vast spiritual soul force, he was very clear about the thoughts swirling in the minds of these creatures.

However, with the mysterious force in the sky dissipating faster and faster, he could only subjugate the Southern Territory Mountains using the fastest and most ruthless methods.
Feeling the fear of these new members below him, Su Lin howled again, signaling Bai Die to take out one-fifth of the stored Variant Species flesh from the cave, as a reward for the numerous new members joining.
Reward and punishment combined!
Whether in human society or among the bloodthirsty exotic beast group, this was the best method to subdue one's subordinates.
One-fifth of the Variant Species Flesh, weighing a total of sixty thousand tons—or over a hundred million pounds—was distributed on a large scale. It was hoped that not only would this strengthen the sense of belonging among the new members, but also accelerate the evolution of these species.
These three forces would also be able to provide better assistance to him in the future!
As Bai Die began distributing the Variant Species Flesh, the gathered creatures stretching over a hundred miles also expressed their heartfelt gratitude.
In the brutal natural world, food is of the utmost importance.
Even within the resource-rich Southern Territory Mountains, the same was true, and all species naturally gave thousands of thanks for this gifted sustenance.
During Bai Die's distribution, Su Lin took out more than twenty tons of New Species Flesh, allocating it to his promoted Beta Wolves and three Lead Wolves.
The Silver Ringed Pit Viper, Bai Die, and Black Rat received a combined ten tons.
As for the other more than twenty Beta Wolf-status exotic beasts, they received more than ten tons together.
This New Species Flesh, containing energy far purer than that of the Variant Species Flesh, ensured such a generous reward would sustain them for a very long time.
There was still a month left until the three-month deadline Su Lin had set for the wolf pack.
With the large-scale distribution of Variant Species Flesh and New Species Flesh, it was expected that the newly subdued three forces would experience significant improvements!
As for what the wolf pack would look like when they reconvened after the three months, Su Lin was very much looking forward to it!
After all, it was the wolf pack he had personally raised from the Arctic Tundra.
It naturally contained far deeper emotions than the three forces of the Southern Territory Mountains.
Especially Xiao Hui, Red-tailed, Xiao Bai, and other such longstanding Variant Species followers—Su Lin hoped the three months of brutal trials would bring about a dramatic change and enhancement for them!
As for the Fox Wolf, Charm Fox, Arctic Tern, and Invincible Fierce Tiger, who all possessed considerable Monster potential, as long as they didn't fall during battles, they would definitely have a place among the top ranks of the wolf pack!
Having surveyed the land from atop Saraiel Mountaintop, Su Lin observed the atmosphere gradually becoming livelier among the many species due to the distribution of rewards, and then withdrew his gaze.
Military force is indeed a fast and effective means of ruling over a group at many times.
But when faced with a real bloody and fierce battle, it's hard to guarantee these creatures won't rebel.
So gifting them with food, which gives them a greater sense of belonging and identification, is a worthwhile trade.
To truly bring these three newly acquired forces to the same level of loyalty as the wolf pack he personally reared, it would still take a very long time.
After withdrawing his gaze, Su Lin leaped down from the top of Saraiel Mountain and returned to the cave which served as his temporary abode.
In the previous month, he had already used the Talent Serum to upgrade the Celestial Wolf Howling Moon, Soul Connection, and Light Protection Talents all to SS-level!
All three Talents had undergone transformative ascension!
The Celestial Wolf Howling Moon Talent's Sonic Wave Talent reached fifty times the sound wave speed, with an attacking range of three hundred kilometers.
This was five or six times stronger than the S-level Celestial Wolf Howling Moon!
This successful upgrade placed the Celestial Wolf Howling Moon firmly among Su Lin's most powerful Talents!
Fifty times the sound wave speed equates to a velocity of sixteen or seventeen thousand meters per second, covering three hundred kilometers in just tens of seconds!
Whether in terms of sweeping speed or coverage area, it far exceeded the reach of current nuclear weapons.
Most importantly, the lethality increased from seventy percent of his Peak Attack Power to one hundred percent!
This lethality, now equivalent to Su Lin's full-force attack.
A full-force attack, combined with the pervasive nature of the Wolf's Howl Sound Wave, can only imagine the horrifying destructive power it possesses.
Thus, the SS-level Wolf's Howl Sound Wave, once unleashed, is truly earth-shattering!
Beyond the Celestial Wolf Howling Moon Talent, both Light Protection and Soul Connection experienced substantial enhancements.
The SS-level Light Protection boosted defensive power by five hundred percent and provided a Light Shield for allied species within a fifty-kilometer radius, significantly enhancing their defenses.
This boost far surpassed the defensive Talents unique to the Bear Clan, not to mention the additional effect of a comprehensive defense boost.
With Su Lin's current defensive power, paired with Light Protection, many species are about to witness what it truly means to be indestructible!
