Protect Our Clan Leader

...

At roughly the same time.

Cold Moon Plateau.

As the first high plateau, known as the "Roof of the World," the altitude of Cold Moon Plateau is naturally extremely high, and the climate on the plateau is exceptionally harsh. Not only does the north wind howl year-round, but the temperature difference between day and night is also astonishingly large, making it difficult for ordinary people without cultivation levels to survive in such conditions.

However, this does not mean the place is desolate.

On the contrary, the plateau is lush with vegetation, rich in species, and has a considerable human population. This is because a significant number of Sacred Lands under the Immortal Palace's command are located atop this plateau.

Among them, the "Devour Heaven Sacred Land," overseen by True Monarch Yuan Yuan, is one of these sacred sites.

Devour Heaven Sacred Land is nestled within a massive basin on the Cold Moon Plateau.

The land within the basin is fertile, with relatively ample moisture, making it highly suitable for cultivating certain types of spirit plants.

The various types of sand melons, crystal grapes, and numerous spices produced in Devour Heaven Sacred Land are very popular throughout the Immortal Dynasty and are one of the key sources of income for Devour Heaven Sacred Land.

However, the most renowned aspect of Devour Heaven Sacred Land is not its spirit plants but its extremely advanced animal husbandry.

Due to the "Devour Heaven Codex," the Heritage Codex of Devour Heaven Sacred Land, best suited for devouring lineage cultivation, the disciples recruited are primarily those with devouring bloodlines.

It is well known that cultivators with devouring bloodlines are incredible eaters.

With the appetite of these disciples, if all the spirit beast meat were purchased from outside, Devour Heaven Sacred Land would have long gone bankrupt from being devoured. Therefore, to allow the numerous disciples within the sacred land to eat their fill and not let the lack of meat affect their cultivation, substantial efforts and resources have been invested in the husbandry industry, resulting in the development of the largest and highest-grade animal husbandry operation within the entire Immortal Palace system.

And this was one of the main reasons why Wang Licui was ultimately moved and decided to join Devour Heaven Sacred Land.

At this moment.

Within the Devour Heaven Basin.

The sky was high, and the clouds were light, with vast and expansive lands.

On the boundless green grasslands, flocks of spirit cows and spirit sheep roamed like cotton balls, traversing the vast expanse of heaven and earth.

In the distance, one could see the outline of the Immortal Palace beside Saint Emperor Peak, along with a faint, colorful halo produced by the defensive array reflecting sunlight around it.

Everything appeared peaceful and harmonious.

"Roar~!!!"

Suddenly.

A thunderous lion's roar shattered the tranquil atmosphere.

In an open area that had been cordoned off, a majestic lion with an abundant mane and a girl in light purple attire were entangled in a fierce struggle, exchanging blows energetically.

Neither the human nor the lion used any mysterious energy; instead, they competed purely with raw power.

The lion was robust, with a massive physique and an imposing presence that exuded a formidable dominance. Even a casual pounce carried a terrifyingly intimidating force.

As for the girl, her cheeks were chubby, making her look adorably innocent. Yet her brute strength was astonishing, matching the lion in a head-to-head contest without yielding an inch.

This girl, of course, was Wang Licui, who had already joined Devour Heaven Sacred Land and become True Monarch Yuan Yuan's legitimate successor.

Back then, when True Monarch Yuan Yuan and True Monarch Guiyi competed to win over Wang Licui, it was True Monarch Yuan Yuan's superior skills and more tempting food that gained him the precious disciple. Since then, he had treated her like a treasured jewel.

Unwittingly, Wang Licui had been in Devour Heaven Sacred Land for several years. Now, she fully integrated into its environment, and her mysterious energy had completely transformed into Devour Heaven Mysterious Energy.

It was upon completing this transformation that Wang Licui realized how greatly the compatibility between cultivation techniques and bloodlines affects one's power.

Although the "King Ming Amber Jingang True Body Scripture" was a formidable body cultivation technique that could strengthen the physical body immensely, it was not entirely compatible with her bloodline. After switching to the Devour Heaven True Method, she notably felt her bloodline power become more active, significantly enhancing her control over devouring divine skills. Even the efficiency of converting devoured energy into personal strength and bloodline talent improved remarkably.

In just a few short years, while her cultivation level had not notably increased, remaining at Level Four of the Purple Abode Realm, her combat prowess had significantly surged.

No wonder Master Yunyang had always said the "King Ming Amber Jingang True Body Scripture" was just for transitional use.

Although a few years may not be considered long, nor short, with her formidable strength, Wang Licui now had quite a following.

Especially among the young disciples within Devour Heaven Sacred Land, a good number idolized her, frequently flocking around, calling her "Senior Aunt" in every endearing way, each one sharper than the last.

"Good luck, Great Aunt/ Big Sister Licui!!"

"Go, Senior Aunt! Defeat Uncle MaoMao!"

"Take him down!"

Around the field, Wang Ying Xuan, exuding elegance and grace, the cute and clever Lan Wanyi, Zhang Huaibing, appearing as an aloof cool guy, and a group of young disciples from Devour Heaven Sacred Land waved their arms, cheering for Wang Licui with expressions of excitement and nervousness.

Meanwhile, a group of sleek and shiny-coated lionesses also watched the human and lion in the field with tense eyes, their upper bodies slightly crouched, emitting deep lion growls from their throats as if cheering on the male lion inside the enclosure.

These lions were from the "Gold Mane Lion Clan." Originally fierce beasts native to Cold Moon Plateau, they were later tamed by the pioneering Old Ancestor of Devour Heaven Sacred Land, becoming the Town Pulse Spirit Beast of Devour Heaven Sacred Land.

Over tens of thousands of years, the Gold Mane Lion Clan proliferated through generations on this plateau, reaching a significant size. This group here was merely one family among them.
