Chapter 330: The Contract is Established
"How rare! During this breakthrough, I can easily control the pressure, and I can even draw on the power of the laws."
A hint of joy flashed in Yi Chen’s eyes.
Had he known it would be like this, he would have made the breakthrough in the Great Flame Kingdom.
The power of the laws he invoked not only allowed the citizens to gain a deeper understanding of the laws but also benefited them greatly.
Xuanxian Stage!
Yi Chen casually named his new realm.
He immediately cleared his mind of all distractions and used the low-grade immortal stones placed beside him to quickly stabilize his realm.
In just about ten hours, he thoroughly stabilized the transformed Qi Sea, meridians, and immortal power.
According to his usual habit, he would first create and improve the Chaos Technique suitable for cultivating in his new realm.
However, he had other tasks to attend to, so he could only hold off for now.
"Congratulations, Master! Congratulations on breaking through to a new major realm!"
Chief Nika flew into the valley at the first opportunity and bowed down before Yi Chen.
"Go on with your tasks! I have things to do."
Yi Chen waved his hand.
He turned and stepped into the teleportation array, his thoughts moving.
His figure appeared in the hidden chamber below the palace of the Great Flame Kingdom.
"Eh…"
In the flying treasure, the Shadow King, who was explaining the major races of the super star cluster to Yi Chen, suddenly exclaimed lightly.
With his powerful Perception Ability, he sensed Yi Chen in the hidden chamber.
He finally confirmed his suspicion.
This ally, whose potential was beyond comprehension, had indeed developed a method to travel quickly between the galaxy and the Tianling Star Cluster.
Unbeatable.
He had seen countless geniuses and considered himself the strongest genius of his race.
But a genius like Yi Chen was not only unheard of but even hard to comprehend.
In the blink of an eye, Yi Chen had already entered the flying treasure.
The Shadow King stood up to greet him.
"Show me the contract!"
Yi Chen spoke.
The Shadow King nodded and waved his hand, causing two black light orbs to appear in front of him.
Then, they flew in front of Yi Chen.
Yi Chen’s divine consciousness entered the first black light orb.
Inside was a contract similar to the Blood Pledge of Dominance.
The content was simple: the Shadow King was willing to entrust his life to Yi Chen’s control, and Yi Chen could use the contract to decide his life or death at any time.
There were no extra rules or restrictions.
With Yi Chen’s current understanding of the Laws of Heaven and Earth, he carefully sensed and examined the contract and could basically determine that there were no traps within it.
He hesitated no longer and let a drop of blood, infused with his divine consciousness and immortal power, flow into the black light orb.
Inside, the Shadow King had already fused his energy and perception into it.
As Yi Chen’s blood entered the black light orb, the contract took effect.
Yi Chen could clearly feel a profound and unbreakable causal bridge forming between himself and the Shadow King.
This made him secretly breathe a sigh of relief.
Despite his trusting demeanor, he still had some concerns and worries in his heart.
After all, who knows if the Shadow King could alter memories?
At the very least, given some time to study, he could certainly think of a way to change memories.
The Shadow King’s strength realm was simply too powerful.
Even if he broke through to the Xuanxian realm and had the Shield of Protection, which offered strong defense, and the Teleportation Technique for escape, he would still face instant defeat against an existence like the Shadow King.
It wasn’t until this contract was fully signed that he finally felt at ease.
Because after signing this contract, even if the Shadow King’s strength realm reached a level capable of killing him instantly, as long as there was a thought of murder, he could sense it.
With his reaction speed, he could completely counterattack and kill the Shadow King before any attack could happen.
Moreover, by signing this contract, the two sides had established an extremely strong causal relationship.
If the Shadow King truly intended to kill him, the principles of heaven and earth would surely impose punishment.
Of course, conversely, if Yi Chen without reason used the contract to subdue the Shadow King, he would also face the punishment of the laws, though it would not be as severe as what the Shadow King would face.
Yi Chen’s divine consciousness once again entered the second contract.
The second contract was relatively more complex.
The Shadow King was willing to submit his life and death to Yi Chen’s control and also willing to bind the entire Shadow Clan to Yi Chen’s side.
However, the rights of the Shadow Clan must also be protected.
This contract stipulated that the Shadow Clan must obey Yi Chen’s commands and could not betray him under any circumstances.
It also agreed that Yi Chen needed to ensure the development and growth of the Shadow Clan and could not abandon them or disregard their interests.
The entire contract was significantly better than the terms the Tree-Dwelling Tribe offered to Yi Chen.
It was in the realm of allies and not vassal races.
This was also the Shadow King’s cleverness.
He did not hide the situation of the Shadow Clan and even took the initiative to offer his life and death to Yi Chen in order to gain his trust and goodwill, striving to secure a position and power for the Shadow Clan.
Clearly, as he expected, Yi Chen was not the kind to take advantage of others or oppress his subordinates.
At this stage, Yi Chen was willing to give the Shadow Clan, who could provide him with powerful support and make significant contributions to the Great Flame Kingdom, their deserved status and power.
He did not linger on the trivial details and, after confirming that the entire contract had no major issues, let a drop of blood infused with his divine consciousness and immortal power flow into the second black light orb.
The contract was formed.
As the master and ally, Yi Chen straightforwardly stored both black light orbs in his storage ring.
“Do you have any orders, master?”
The Shadow King was overjoyed, lowering himself to the ground like a citizen of the Great Flame Kingdom, prostrating before Yi Chen.
“From now on, you can call me Country Lord; there’s no need to kneel.”
Yi Chen was also extremely excited; he was willing to give such a formidable subordinate the respect he deserved.
“Understood!”
The Shadow King stood up.
Yi Chen asked, “Your Shadow Clan is skilled in concealment; is there a way to hide the formations I create so that even powerful beings from the Tree-Dwelling Tribe cannot detect them?”
The Shadow King pondered and replied, “If the powerful beings from the Tree-Dwelling Tribe’s realm does not reach the level of Mirage Cloud, which is above level 220, it can be done.”
“Follow me!”
Yi Chen’s face lit up with joy; this way, he wouldn’t need to spend a lot of time creating a way to hide the teleportation array.
He focused his mind.
Using the Teleportation Technique, he instantly appeared at the teleportation array in the hidden chamber.
Although the Shadow King could not teleport, he almost instantly crossed the defensive formation and appeared beside Yi Chen.
“This formation here is a teleportation array that connects to the Fengmang planet and the blood-colored planet in the Tianling Star Cluster. I do not plan to abandon the exile planet; I want to hide the teleportation array so that I can send a group of fierce beasts to guard the exile planet and make adjustments.”
Yi Chen explained.
“Not a problem! I just need to leave a small part of my body here, shroud the entire formation or hidden chamber, and then use our Shadow Clan’s secret method to avoid detection by Perception Ability.”
Although the Shadow King could not understand why Yi Chen did not want to temporarily abandon a small exile planet, he still explained:
“It can specifically target the Perception Ability of the powerful beings from the Tree-Dwelling Tribe and the scanning of human technology, while humanity passing through will not be affected.”
“Very good, let’s do it; shroud the entire hidden chamber.”
Yi Chen immediately made the decision.
The Shadow King did not waste any time.
From within his body, he sent out a shadow, completely enveloping the hidden chamber.
Then he activated the Shadow Clan’s concealment secret method; even if Yi Chen now closed the large defensive formation, the large battleship’s scanner outside the exile planet would only detect an empty hidden chamber.
Even if someone was sent in, as long as the Shadow King wished, he could ensure that they would only see an empty hidden chamber.
