Territory's Initial Completion

The setting sun bled like blood, illuminating a battlefield strewn with corpses.

Lin Yi strode forward, his long saber dripping with wolf blood, an irrepressible excitement on his face.

"Lord, the wolf pack has been completely wiped out!

Our losses are minimal: twelve severely wounded, seventeen lightly wounded, and no fatalities!

The wounded's injuries are healing on their own, and they should be ready for combat again tomorrow!"

Lin Mo nodded, his gaze sweeping across the corpse-filled battlefield, finally settling on the open ground in the center of the valley.

The afterglow of the sunset dyed the entire valley a golden-red, the forests, rivers, and land all cloaked in a bloody hue.

The air was thick with the stench of blood, mingled with the fresh scent of grass and trees.

The threat had been completely eliminated. From this day forward, this valley would bear the Lin name.

"Clear the battlefield."

Lin Mo commanded in a deep voice, his words echoing through the valley.

"Collect all the wolf carcasses and carefully skin them for tanning.

The wolf meat not contaminated with poison blood can be cured and stored. This is all food, so don't waste it."

"Yes!"

The clones responded in unison and began to methodically handle the post-battle affairs.

Lin Mo, meanwhile, stepped over wolf corpses and bloodstains, slowly walking towards higher ground.

He stood on a protruding giant rock, overlooking the land that was about to completely belong to him.

The vast valley spanned over ten thousand mu, its land flat and fertile;

The dense forest could provide an endless supply of timber and game;

The winding river not only brought clear water but also nurtured abundant fish;

The towering cliffs on all sides served as natural barriers. The single river valley entrance, with a little construction, would become an impregnable fortress...

Lin Mo opened his personal interface and brought up the exclusive [Territory Construction] panel for his Lord profession, clicking the "Establish" button without hesitation.

[Detected baseline conditions for territory establishment met: Unclaimed land, abundant resources, superior terrain]

[Area: Approximately 16,000 mu]

[Terrain: Enclosed valley, surrounded by mountains to the west, sole exit via river valley to the southeast]

[Establish territory here?]

Lin Mo took a deep breath, a sharp glint flashing in his eyes.

"Yes."

[Please name your territory:]

Lin Mo pondered for a moment.

"Dragon Perch Valley."

A hidden dragon in the abyss, resting and accumulating strength, would one day soar to the nine heavens.

The next moment--

Heaven and earth changed color!

Above the valley, the previously clear sky suddenly gathered layers of golden clouds.

The clouds swirled, forming a massive vortex. A thick golden pillar of light descended from the center of the vortex, completely enveloping Lin Mo's location!

Within the pillar of light, countless golden runes flowed and danced, as if alive.

The ground began to shake, not the destructive tremor of an earthquake, but a deep, powerful pulse, as if the earth itself was breathing.

The torrent of information gradually subsided, and a sharp light flickered in Lin Mo's eyes.
