Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 1521: Chapter 565: Three Agreements, Haixin Returns to Dust

Cheng Family is temporarily the Master of the Flying Swallow, in charge of the token for entering and exiting the big formation on Yao Yue Island!

Upon this statement, the grand hall immediately buzzed with discussions.

Amidst the complex noises, the summary boiled down to only one question.

”Why?”

Her Cheng Family had done many things for the Demon Monarch, but other major families had also made significant contributions; was it merely because they were closest to the water they could get the moon first?

Yet, to be a regional ruler, one must possess enough strength!

Whether it is for suppressing other families internally or resisting powerful enemies externally.

Without strength, it would only be a joke!

Some mature and prudent individuals did not reveal their thoughts or speak further, quietly observing the demeanor of Demon King Qingyang.

Seeing that he remained silent and calm, allowing the discussions below to continue, showing a laissez-faire attitude.

Does he truly not care?

Does he really think that his words are the absolute rule and that after his departure, the rest would comply?

As people guessed the hidden meaning in the Demon Monarch’s words, some gradually grasped the implication.

That final sentence of the first issue—”Until the first local Golden Core Cultivator is born!”

Many people revealed a look of realization.

So that was it.

The Demon Monarch was not being tyrannical by stating Cheng Family would be the permanent Master of the Flying Swallow, but rather, it was a temporary arrangement.

If among the 32 islands of Flying Swallow, a Golden Core Cultivator was to be born, without a doubt, this person would be the true Master of the Flying Swallow.

The control of the big formation for entering and exiting Yao Yue Island that the Cheng Family temporarily held would undoubtedly be handed over.

Realizing this, the most powerful families exchanged knowing glances, and some smaller clans with good relationships with them also quieted down.

However, these people were also puzzled.

If Cheng Family controlled Yao Yue Island and forbade outsiders from entering, then for a Foundation Establishment Perfection Monk without the Third Order Spirit Vein Land, advancing to the Golden Core Period would become extremely difficult.

Did Demon King Qingyang consider this point?

Seeing that the discussions stopped, Luo Chen inwardly smirked.

Sure enough, these smaller clans had come together at some point.

Fortunately, he had taken action in advance; otherwise, Cheng Family’s downfall might have happened in an instant after his departure.

He tugged at the corner of his mouth and spoke in a low voice, ”The second matter is related to the first. It is that no matter who among you advances to the Golden Core Period, none shall oppress Cheng Family without cause, and when a Foundation Establishment Perfection Monk from Cheng Family wants to break through to the Golden Core Period using the Spirit Land, you must provide it without asking for anything in return, nor secretly cause harm.”

”Of course, if you gentlemen wish to borrow the Spirit Land, Cheng Haixin will also arrange it based on circumstances.”

”Amongst those present, many must have exchanged for my Core Formation Secret Art and practiced it for some time now!”

Under Luo Chen’s sweeping gaze, several Late Stage Foundation Establishment Great Cultivators bowed their heads.

Cheng Haixin stood at the forefront, her lips trembling and eyes filled with tenderness.

She had never imagined that, before Ascendant Master departed, he would have thought everything through so thoroughly, arranging Cheng Family’s affairs so well.

Even saying that he handed over significant power to her.

In the future, all the Foundation Establishment Great Cultivators of the Flying Swallow Islands would have to curry favor with her.

Her precarious situation had instantly improved.

Her gaze stealthily swept across several Great Cultivators she had always feared; their current mood must not be very pleasant!

And all of this was within a single thought of the Ascendant Master.

Thinking of this, Cheng Haixin became increasingly moved.

Luo Chen did not wait for their thoughts to settle and promptly spoke the third matter.

”From now on, you don’t have to collect herbs for me. The Flying Swallow Merchant Team can be kept for the families to trade with outsiders and earn profits.”

Three matters, each explained.

If the first two matters left many people somewhat dissatisfied, the last one indeed let everyone breathe a sigh of relief.

The Demon Monarch’s demands were truly insatiable.

In less than twenty years, he had caused significant declines in the powers of the major families.

Even some Foundation Establishment Cultivators had their cultivation progress forcibly interrupted.

Now that Demon King Qingyang was no longer demanding, the shackles were suddenly removed.

Consequently, the dissatisfaction regarding the first two matters was also subdued by a lot.

Of course, it was only subdued temporarily!

Who can predict future events!

When the time comes, once the person leaves, it cools down, the so-called agreements, the so-called oaths, are just empty words, who would truly abide by them...

”Do you all agree?”

The man’s deep voice spread throughout the grand hall.

The Cultivators spontaneously shouted in unison, ”Agree!”

Luo Chen grinned, ”Alright, since you agree, let’s establish the oath!”

The people were stunned, what oath?

Soon after, they saw a roll of paper, seemingly golden but not, flying out from Demon King Qingyang’s hands, floating in the hall.

On it, every word was exceptionally clear, indeed those three matters previously spoken by the Ascendant Master.

”Squeeze out a drop of your Natal Life Essence, and I will establish this Flying Swallow Blood Oath for you. Should anyone violate it, as long as the bloodline of those who made the oath continues, they will suffer the backlash of the collective power.”

Upon hearing this, everyone’s color changed simultaneously!

Instinctively, some wanted to object.

However, a vast Spirit Pressure emitted from the young man above enveloped the entire grand hall, stifling everyone’s breath.

Under his deep gaze, the Cultivators ultimately squeezed out their precious Natal Life Essence with great pain.

Watching drop by drop of profound blood seeping into the oath paper until finally Cheng Haixin’s Blood Essence also entered it, Luo Chen swung his hand, summoning the oath paper back.

In front of everyone, he executed several Spiritual Secrets upon it.

Originally thick with the stench of blood, the oath paper suddenly became utterly ordinary, without any anomalies.
