Survival for All: I can deconstruct projections and synthesize everything.

Lin Xiao was slightly taken aback when he saw the Origin Crystal of the Crystal Giant being handed over by the Tenth Elder of the Rainbow Cloud Clan, but then readily accepted it.

The crystal felt cool to the touch and contained pure earth energy, but the life force that originally belonged to the crystal giant had completely dissipated.

Of course, this crystal can't only have this function. We'll have to wait until we get back and hand it over to the Eternal Alliance's research and development department to work on it.

Although Lin Xiao's deconstruction talent allows her to see through the specific effects of this crystal in an instant.

But now that Lin Xiao has established his power, he can delegate some unimportant matters to his subordinates. If he has to do everything himself, then his Eternal Alliance would be better off not being established at all.

"Tenth Elder, I am very satisfied with this gift."

Lin Xiao put away the crystal and glanced down at the Crystal Clan camp.

The Crystal Clan camp, now in complete chaos due to the loss of its leader.

With four fifth-tier powerhouses no longer in command, the remaining Crystal Clan warriors were like headless flies, all staring in terror at the void and Lin Xiao, who hovered in mid-air like a war god.

"It seems I no longer need to handle the situation personally!"

Lin Xiao's tone was calm, but carried an undeniable authority.

"Zhuge Duo, Sikong Xinyou, Lü Qiao!"

Lin Xiao immediately sent a message to the three of them, and they immediately took action after receiving Lin Xiao's order.

When Lü Qiao received news of the Crystal Clan's invasion, he had already prepared to attack, but the fifth-tier powerhouse on the other side was too terrifying.

So, on Zhuge Duo's advice, they decided to wait for news from Lin Xiao.

Sure enough, it wasn't long before they received news that Lin Xiao's entire army had launched an attack.

"The alliance leader is awesome!"

"Lin Xiao is awesome!"

Both he and his 100 subordinates cheered loudly upon receiving news of the attack.

"Set off!"

Lu Qiao excitedly issued the order.

Of course, Zhao Da and Bobo Sha and a few others were also involved in this situation.

They also led their teams to the Crystal Clan's camp.

Without the suppression of high-end combat power, the alliance members, aided by mass-produced mechs, dealt with the leaderless Crystal Clan with overwhelming force.

Screams, energy explosions, and the roar of mechs echoed throughout the area, but the outcome of the battle was already a foregone conclusion.

The Crystal Clan's camp offered no resistance whatsoever to Lü Qiao and his group's attack.

Even more surprisingly, Lü Qiao's team even ventured into the territory of the Crystal Clan on the other side of the spatial rift.

Lin Xiao no longer paid attention to the cleaning work below, and turned his attention back to the tenth elder of the Caiyun Clan.

"Tenth Elder, the trouble has been resolved. Now... shouldn't we be able to properly discuss that 'equal treaty'?"

The raging storm of lightning within the dark clouds seemed to have subsided considerably, conveying a benevolent spiritual energy: "Of course, Alliance Leader Lin Xiao has proven with swift and decisive action that the Eternal Alliance possesses the qualifications and strength to sign an equal treaty. We, the Rainbow Cloud Clan, have always kept our promises!"

The ten elders once again conjured that cloud-shaped scroll.

This time, the content of the treaty is completely different from the previous unfair terms.

Lin Xiao read it carefully:

Article 1: The Caiyun Clan and the Eternal Alliance form an equal alliance, agreeing not to invade each other's territory and to respect each other's sovereignty and territorial integrity.

Article 2: If either party is invaded by an external force, the other party, upon receiving a request for assistance, shall provide military and material support to the best of its ability within the agreed timeframe. The specific level of support shall be negotiated based on the circumstances.

Article 3: Both sides shall open up trade and cultural exchanges to a certain extent, exchange goods and services, and tariffs shall be determined through consultation between the two sides.

Article 4: Establish a regular high-level meeting mechanism to share information on the situation and threats in the fog of the world, which are of common concern.

Article 5: The treaty shall be valid for one hundred years and may be renewed only with the consent of both parties before its expiration.

Lin Xiao read through the list one by one and nodded.

This treaty is indeed fairer and more reasonable than the previous one, without any unequal obligations attached. It is more of a framework for cooperation, and for the Eternal Alliance, which urgently needs stable development, the benefits outweigh the drawbacks.

Moreover, given the power ranking of the Caiyun Clan, it can greatly deter some petty villains.

"I have no objection to the contents of the treaty," Lin Xiao said.

"However, regarding the level of support in the second point, the terms 'to the best of our ability' and 'to negotiate as needed' may need to be more clearly defined to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings in the future."

The Tenth Elder responded, "Alliance Leader Lin Xiao's considerations are quite comprehensive. Specifically, we can add: in the event of a conventional conflict, we will provide intelligence, supplies, or limited troop support. In the event of a threat threatening the extermination of our race, we will provide assistance to the best of our ability. Specific details can be further refined by the diplomatic department later."

"Can."

Lin Xiao nodded in agreement.

Then he stretched out his hand, a wisp of power of rules flowing between his fingertips: "Then, let us swear an oath by the power of rules, and the contract be established?"

"That's how it should be."

The tenth elder separated a small wisp of dark cloud and gently touched Lin Xiao's power of rules.

"Buzz!"

An invisible ripple spread out, signifying that the equal alliance treaty between the Rainbow Cloud Clan and the Eternal Alliance had officially come into effect.

The scroll transformed into two streams of light, which entered Lin Xiao and the Tenth Elder's bodies respectively, marking the establishment of the contract.

"By the way, Alliance Leader Lin Xiao, the patriarch of my Caiyun Clan is also very interested in you, a newly recruited survivor, and cordially invites you to visit our Caiyun Clan's territory when you have some free time!"

The tenth elder extended an invitation to Lin Xiao; naturally, this invitation was given on behalf of the Caiyun clan chief.

"Oh? Since the Rainbow Cloud Clan Chief has extended an invitation, that person will naturally make time to be a guest!"

Lin Xiao's heart stirred. This was a perfect opportunity to inquire about the sixth-order gap and some other secrets.

"Once I've settled things here, I'll naturally head over! Tenth Elder, why don't you wait here for a few days?"

The tenth elder of the Caiyun Clan nodded and said:

"In that case, I'll stay here for a while longer!"

After the Tenth Elder finished speaking, he and the four little clouds beside him disappeared into the void.

Watching the departing tenth elder of the Caiyun Clan, Lin Xiao took a deep breath.

"The survivors who are still alive... I hope it won't end up like what happened in the Water Soul Domain!"

"Let's digest our current gains first." As he spoke, Lin Xiao's gaze fell on the two source crystals belonging to the Crystal Dragon and the Crystal Giant in his system backpack.

These two things might bring him some unexpected surprises.
