Dao Oath.
The most stringent contract.
Within Tianxia Civilization, there have been repeated betrayals in the past—especially the harm caused by the Withdrawal Faction was exceptionally profound. Ever since, for all mid- and high-level cultivators at Grandmaster Realm or above, swearing an oath became mandatory.
After that, the situation improved significantly.
The Dao Oath cannot eradicate betrayal entirely, but at least it prevents a whole organization of traitors.
Now that the organization is expanding, and the enemies to face are ever stronger, without unity, even a multitude would be but a disorderly mob.
Better to have Tianxia Civilization go it alone.
Lu Chenzhou held his wine cup, while Spirit Phoenix Dominator, Dragon Lord, and Hanhai Sect Lord fell briefly into silence.
The higher their own cultivation realm, the more they dreaded the Dao Oath—for they had cultivated for thousands of years.
A single misstep, and all would be lost.
