Lightning Bear Line, Divine Firmament Plain!
After the Frenzied Lion Clan was persuaded to retreat, Six Kings Mountain gradually returned to peace.
Shan Li is decisive and efficient in his work.
No sooner had Shi Jian agreed to the marriage than she brought out a variety of spiritual materials and animal hide maps from the bone ship, covering the cave abode on Divine Firmament Peak.
"The name 'Six Kings Mountain ' won't do."
Shan Li squatted in front of the map, marking and circling with charcoal, without looking up. "Six peaks, let's call it Six Kings Mountain. If we add a few more peaks later, it'll be called Nine Kings Mountain, or Hundred Kings Mountain."
"It sounds like a makeshift troupe. To establish a foothold, they need a proper name; only then can they have a stance."
Shi Jian leaned against the cave wall, holding the Thunder Spear, and remained silent.
"You cultivate the Purple Pivot Lightning and possess the body of a bear; from now on, our lineage will be the Lightning Bear Line; this territory of the Six Kings Mountain will be officially named: Divine Firmament Plain!"
Shan Li wrote quickly, scribbling a series of names in the center of the map, then looked up at him. "Any objections?"
"No."
"Then it's settled."
Shan Li stood up, rolled up the map, and strode towards the cave entrance. Halfway there, he stopped and glanced back at him.
"From this day forward, these six peaks will be the foundation of the Lightning Bear Line and the central hub of Divine Firmament Plain; they will bear the name of the Mountain Bear externally, but you will be in charge internally."
She paused, then added, "But I'm in charge of internal affairs; don't interfere."
Shi Jian smiled. This mother bear really didn't show the slightest bit of politeness.
Shi Jian was Qi Ingestion of Shan Li's skill.
For a long time to come, Six Kings Mountain will be completely transformed.
What she brought from the bone ship was not only two Nascent Soul cultivators; but also over a thousand Foundation Establishment and Golden Core mountain Bear Race.
They are all collateral descendants of the Mountain Bear Lineage. Although they are not considered elite, they are obedient, capable, and have considerable potential.
She divided these mountain bear demons into three groups.
One group dispersed throughout the Divine Firmament Plain, establishing various places to live and further controlling the entire territory, completely transforming the land of conflict between the three races into the territory of the Giant Bear Clan.
Another group was in charge of internal affairs, digging cave abode, planting spirit medicine, and managing the restrictions on the six peaks.
The last group was sent deep into the wasteland to search for wild seedlings of Blood Marrow Grass and transplant them back to the foot of the volcano for unified cultivation.
"Blood Marrow Grass thrives in heat, with the most suitable temperature at the foot of a volcano; this grass takes thirty years to grow, thirty years to mature, and thirty years to ripen."
"Every thirty years thereafter, a new batch of seedlings will be planted in rotation; after a hundred years of operation, meeting the quota for each hundred years will not be a problem."
"As for the surplus, it can be used for our own purposes in the future; or it can be bestowed upon members of the clan who Golden Core or Foundation Establishment to strengthen the clan."
Shan Li had everything arranged perfectly; his efficient manner made him seem more like Human Race than a Demon Race.
Shi Jian watched from afar, thinking to himself: If this mother bear had been born into Human Race Aristocratic Clan, she could probably have turned a small sect into a major sect.
However, he was happy to be a hands-off manager.
He left all worldly affairs to Shan Li, and secluded himself on Divine Firmament Peak, seeing no one else.
He rearranged the cave abode on the mountaintop.
He needed peace and quiet to cultivate properly and break through his cultivation level as soon as possible; back on Profound Spirit Island, he couldn't even cultivate if he wanted to, and was stuck at the Nascent Soul Middle Stage...
Now that the world is clear and the Dao Path is revealed, how could he not want to see this world!
And how could he not have the idea of breaking through to the Spirit Transformation and ascending to the Dao Venerable? If he could ascend to the Dao Venerable, his lifespan would be greatly extended.
It wouldn't be an exaggeration to call him "living as long as the heavens."
The news of Lightning Bear Line spread rapidly around Three Kings Mountain.
The Golden Core Demon General, including the Azure Wolf and the Black Python, who had originally submitted to the Beast Realm, were quite obedient. Changing their banners was no big deal; in this Beast Realm, what difference did it make who they served?
Moreover, this new master is far more ferocious than the Mosuo Venomous Snake and the Demon King Shihu.
However, as time goes by, these non-bear-type Demon Beast will eventually be eliminated one by one, and Shan Li will not keep these lowly demons.
As for the Frenzied Lion Clan, they were quieter than Shi Jian had expected.
After Shan Li revealed his identity as Mountain Bear Lineage, the five Nascent Soul Frenzied Lion never appeared again; until two months later, the Frenzied Lion Clan established three new strongholds on the western border of Divine Firmament Plain.
Each stronghold is guarded by a Frenzied Lion at the Nascent Soul Middle Stage stage; the three strongholds are mutually supportive, facing off against the western border of Divine Firmament Plain.
The objective was clear: to curb the westward expansion of the Lightning Bear Line.
"They dare not fight, but they also refuse to back down."
"Let's just wait it out like this, for hundreds or thousands of years, and naturally, the Divine Firmament Plain will be completely under the control of our race."
Shan Li saw everything, but didn't care.
In this place where the three races meet, although they face the direct threat of two races, neither race will act rashly, especially given the clear fate of the Mountain Bear Lineage in this area.
The other two races wouldn't actually Spirit Transformation and fight over a mere 80,000 li of territory.
Moreover, the Giant Bear Clan truly has thirteen Nascent Spirit Transformation; the Frenzied Lion Clan and the Heavenly Serpent Race combined have approximately the same number.
If a real fight breaks out, it wouldn't be difficult for the Giant Bear Clan to sweep aside both clans.
The reason these two races can still exist is because the Giant Bear Clan is surrounded by wolves; it borders large races in every direction.
The Giant Bear Clan has never only fought against the Frenzied Lion and Heavenly Snake Clans; it has also contended with seven or eight Spirit Transformation Clans from all directions.
Furthermore, the Lightning Bear Line is newly established and its foundation is not yet stable; rather than wasting energy on border frictions, it would be better to take advantage of this period of stability to solidify its foundation.
The power struggle between Spirit Transformation cultivators is never something that can be turned around by a few Nascent Soul.
It's simply a matter of driving in a few nails to mark the boundary.
