Chapter 592: Chapter 321 “Ten Million Years Later” and “Becoming an Immortal through Meritorious Deeds” (Please Subscribe)_2
Gazing into the distance, Milton Cheney stood with his hands clasped behind his back, feeling a slight sigh in his heart.
After reaching the Unification Realm, he could clearly sense this span of Heaven and Earth.
Five million years had passed, yet Milton sensed no change in this world.
It was like a pond of still water, silent and unchanging.
Beneath the dome of Heaven and Earth, even the strongest of Cultivators were but ants.
What difference would it make if more Immortal Beings appeared? The world remained the same, unchanged.
How difficult it was to transcend the world.
Nonetheless, over these many years, Milton had discerned some useful things.
After all, his vision was far broader than that of the original inhabitants of this world.
Because he had been reincarnated into this world, because he had experienced many worlds before.
Thus, Milton’s thoughts were quite different from those of others in this world.
“Could ‘Immortal Being’ be another name for ‘Transcendent’ in this world?”
Milton pondered to himself.
To Milton, the Immortal Being who had undergone tribulation was once merely a realm.
Just like the Nascent Soul Realm, the Deity Transformation Realm.
But after five million years, Milton’s thoughts had changed.
He believed that the so-called Tribulation Crossing Immortal might not be as simple as he once thought.
Could becoming an Immortal by tribulation, ascending to the Immortal Realm be another manifestation of the Transcendent?
Milton didn’t know because he had no chance to verify his theory, nor could he verify it.
But he guessed that perhaps the Tribulation Crossing Immortal represented more than just a realm.
Becoming a Transcendent was not about realm.
Within the Wizard Realm, perhaps a Level 7 Wizard could become a Transcendent, or maybe a Level 8 Wizard could as well.
Or perhaps even a Level 8 Wizard could not transcend, not to mention a Level 9 Wizard.
Becoming a Transcendent had nothing to do with realm.
Transcendents were not necessarily strong, nor were Cultivators who hadn’t transcended necessarily weak.
Like Mansour, who would transcend in the future of the Wizard Realm.
Was he strong?
Not necessarily.
To the current Milton, a Level 8 Wizard was just so-so.
Compared to the Level 8 Demons of the Crimson World, he was definitely inferior.
Yet, he had transcended, while in the Crimson World, apart from that mysterious Demon Monarch, the other Demons had not transcended.
Transcendents, if one had to say, were more like a status.
Those of weaker realms also had a chance to transcend, but their chances were definitely smaller than those of the strong.
But as to what benefits transcending brought, why people sought it, even the current Milton was somewhat puzzled.
Yet he was very clear that his subconscious yearned for it.
It felt like transcendence definitely had great benefits, perhaps incomparable benefits.
It was just that he didn’t know it at the time.
So in essence, transcendence represented more than just realm.
Milton wanted to transcend, but not in this world—rather, in the actual Wizard Realm.
Before, there was no opportunity to contemplate these things in a simulated world, but now that he had the chance, Milton naturally wouldn’t let it go.
It was just a pity that all he could do was think about it.
Fortunately, Milton’s Comprehension was very high, even if all he did was think, it wasn’t impossible that he could come to an understanding.
“These years, my deductions have also reached a bottleneck, and it may be difficult to make further gains.”
“I can feel that my lifespan seems to be gradually depleting. Could this be a side effect of forcing the Unification Realm using the Power of Merit?”
Standing quietly, Milton mused to himself.
His expression didn’t change at all.
All his thoughts arose from the bottom of his heart.
Milton wouldn’t take the initiative to tell others, nor was there anyone worth telling.
He would only ponder in silence.
Milton could feel that he could live for no more than six million years.
Normally, those in the Unification Realm could live for ten million years.
In terms of lifespan, whether in the early or late stages of the Unification Realm, the length of life was the same.
The Lotus Monarch had lived for twenty-three million years in his life.
Milton felt he could only live to half that figure.
That was somewhat abnormal, but Milton didn’t want to think about why.
Perhaps it was because the Power of Merit was too defying, causing a reduction in lifespan, or perhaps it was for some other reasons.
Regardless, whatever the reason, Milton didn’t care.
Because of this Reincarnation Simulation, he had already lived long enough.
Milton Cheney himself had not expected such immense gains from this round of Reincarnation Simulation.
“For the next six million years, I should also plan something.”
“This world is a treasure, perhaps I will come back again after future Reincarnation Simulations.”
“Rather than saying this world is a treasure, it’s better to say this Universe Layer is a treasure.”
As Milton Cheney pondered in his heart, his body also began to gradually fade until he completely disappeared atop the holy mountain.
…….
Day and night cycled unceasingly in the Cultivation Realm, and the generations of Cultivators dependent on the Cultivation Realm went through their own cycles of succession.
In the blink of an eye, another five million years passed!
In a plain little hut on a nondescript hill.
Milton Cheney held a book in hand, silently turning the pages.
Sunlight streamed through the gaps of the hut, casting an enchanting glow upon Milton Cheney.
This place, Milton Cheney would visit once every hundred years.
However, as his lifespan gradually approached its end, Milton Cheney no longer harbored any hope.
A moment later, Milton Cheney turned the last page of the book, his expression unchanged.
He was ready to leave this place.
But suddenly, a hint of surprise flashed through Milton Cheney’s eyes.
By now, stirring his emotions had become a difficult task.
“I actually managed to catch up.”
The surprise in Milton Cheney’s eyes was fleeting, and the next moment a smile spread across his face.
The next instant, Milton Cheney gently waved his hand.
The door to the hut swung wide open!
A white-robed elder stood at the entrance, his gaze as profound as the starry sky, his face bearing a smile much like Milton Cheney’s.
“In the blink of ten million years, who would have thought I’d have the chance to meet your reincarnated self in this life.”
Milton Cheney, holding the book, said with a light smile.
Milton Cheney had thought he wouldn’t have the chance to meet the Lotus Monarch again in this round of Reincarnation Simulation.
Yet reality proved to be so unreasonable.
Just ten million years had passed, and the Lotus Monarch had once again awakened his memories in the cycle of reincarnation.
Hearing Milton Cheney’s words, the Lotus Monarch nonchalantly stepped into the hut.
Not only Milton Cheney was surprised, the Lotus Monarch himself also hadn’t expected it to be this quick.
“Opportunity has arrived, but there is still much you didn’t expect,” said the Lotus Monarch with a mysterious smile.
“Oh?”
Milton Cheney’s eyes brightened, and he closed the book in his hands, intrigued as he looked toward the Lotus Monarch.
“I am about to become an Immortal.”
Indeed!
Milton Cheney was startled by the words, but not particularly surprised.
After all, as soon as he sensed the Lotus Monarch’s sudden appearance, he felt that the Lotus Monarch of this life was somewhat different.
The aura around him was completely undisguised, not restrained in the slightest.
Just like a peerless sword fully unsheathed.
Sharp, keen!
Still, Milton Cheney was a bit curious and asked, “So soon, have you obtained a great opportunity?”
“Yes, there’s no need to hide it from you.”
“But I didn’t achieve Immortality through forceful breakthrough.”
Hearing this, Milton Cheney’s brows furrowed slightly.
What did it mean not to achieve Immortality through forceful breakthrough?
Could there really be another way to achieve Immotallity?
To achieve Immortality through breakthrough was essentially another way of saying breaking through to the Tribulation Crossing Realm and then becoming an Immortal by crossing the tribulation.
As far as Milton Cheney understood, this world seemed to have only the way of becoming an Immortal by crossing the tribulation.
It seemed that the Lotus Monarch had noticed Milton Cheney’s confusion and thus smiled mysteriously.
“You’re not wrong. In the Cultivation Realm, there is indeed another way to become an Immortal.”
“It’s just that this method seems to have appeared only in recent years. If nothing goes wrong, I ought to be the first Cultivator to achieve Immortality in this way.”
The Lotus Monarch said, not keeping the mystery any longer; right after these words, he proceeded to speak:
“I am, an Immortal through the Power of Merit!”
