Chapter 468: Chapter 261 “Perception Evolution” and “Transformation Begins” (Please Subscribe)_2
At this moment, Milton Cheney understood why he had never felt any change in his body before.
The change was simply too gradual and scarce for his previous perception ability to detect, so it was completely normal for him to not have sensed it.
Milton had suspected this before.
But it was just speculation then, whereas now, he had verified those speculations as fact.
With the passage of time, this kind of change would definitely lead to the true transformation of Milton’s demon body.
The enhancement of his perceptual ability at this moment was just one aspect of this change.
Milton was certain that, if his demon body were to transform, the resulting changes wouldn’t be limited to just a stronger perceptual ability.
Perhaps there would also be unexpected surprises waiting for him.
After all, Milton Cheney did not believe that the inherited memory he received before was the last one.
With this in mind, Milton no longer dwelled on it, nor did he continue to sense his own body.
After all, there was not much significant change in his body; it was only his perceptual ability that had changed.
Milton had already tested his newfound strong perceptual ability and naturally saw no need to maintain constant self-awareness.
If he did, the passage of time would have a significant impact on him.
What Milton needed to do now was minimize the impact of time and just wait for the moment when his demon body would transform.
As for how to do this, Milton knew very well.
That was to let go of all his thoughts and allow his body to wander instinctively in the Demon Mother River.
In doing so, Milton would not be affected by the slightest interference from the outside.
Nor would he need to sense the passage of time.
Under this premise, no matter how much time passed, Milton would almost be unaffected by any temporal influences.
That is to say, time would lose much of its meaning to Milton in this state.
But for Milton, this was undoubtedly a good thing.
He didn’t need to worry so much anymore; once his demon body completed its transformation, everything would become clear to Milton.
This state was somewhat similar to the human state of sleep.
It was also a bit like a wizard’s state of meditation.
Only, a wizard’s meditation came with many conditions while Milton’s relinquishing of his thoughts did not.
This was more like an ability Milton was born with.
In other words, even if Milton didn’t retain all the memories from his previous life, as long as he had a demon body, he would have this ability.
It was an innate ability of all demons.
Even other demons had this ability.
To put it another way, even if Milton hadn’t experienced any reincarnation simulation before,
Even if this was his first reincarnation simulation, time would still not significantly affect him, inexperienced as he was.
After all, this wasn’t about him living countless years in reality, but about “sleeping” through countless years.
The next moment, Milton stopped pondering anything at all and completely emptied his mind.
At the same time, his body began to quietly wander in the Demon Mother River.
At this moment, Milton even gave up his awareness of the surrounding environment.
His body was now moving entirely based on instinct.
Milton felt safe doing this because of his years of environmental awareness.
He was sure that there would be no further changes in his perception of the environment before his demon body completed its transformation.
Moreover, within the Demon Mother River, Milton didn’t need to eat, nor did he have to worry about other demons causing him any trouble.
Whether there were other demons or not, Milton still didn’t know at this moment.
However, Milton thought it was highly likely that there were others; it’s just that he couldn’t sense them yet.
Since he couldn’t perceive them, there was naturally no need to continue with such meaningless perception.
Unaffected by the vague presence of other demons, Milton had no need to concern himself with them.
Since he didn’t need to worry about these things, he naturally chose to completely let go of his thoughts.
Within this period before his demon body began its transformation, unless something unexpected happened, Milton wouldn’t think about anything else.
After all, at this point, he had no concerns left.
Some of Milton Cheney’s previous speculations had been confirmed after experiencing the Inherited Memory and the evolution of his Perceptual Ability.
As for those speculations he had not confirmed, they had become the ones he would no longer have the opportunity to verify.
To verify those speculations, he could only wait for the moment when his Demon body finally completed its Transformation.
The Abyssal does not reckon time.
But the concept of time could not possibly be entirely absent.
However, for Milton Cheney, who was now acting entirely on instinct, the concept of time seemed to truly not exist.
At least, throughout these countless years, Milton Cheney had not consciously sensed the passage of time.
This precisely indicated that in this world, Milton Cheney had completely disregarded the concept of time.
When he had first been reincarnated into this world, Milton Cheney would pay attention to time, but now he no longer cared about it, as it held no meaning.
Milton Cheney’s disregard for time did not mean that time would stand still.
At a certain moment, Milton Cheney nonetheless released the state of open-mindedness.
The reason was, naturally, that his Demon body had reached a critical point.
At this moment, a stream of thoughts began to surge into Milton Cheney’s mind again.
“Is the body about to begin its Transformation?”
Milton Cheney muttered to himself.
There was actually a sense of emotion in his heart.
Because at this time, as to how long it had been since he completely let go of his conscious thoughts, Milton Cheney had no idea.
He didn’t even know an approximate time.
But one thing Milton Cheney was sure of was that the time was definitely not a brief one.
It must have been countless years since the last evolution of his Perceptual Ability.
Even though Milton Cheney had not actively sensed the passing of time, he was clear about this fact.
After all, the Transformation of the body was definitely not completed in an instant; Milton Cheney had previously sensed such a slow elevation.
Just like water dripping through stone, Milton Cheney had seen the water, so naturally, he knew how difficult it was to penetrate stone.
But this wasn’t the reason for Milton Cheney’s touch of emotion upon rebirth.
The reason Milton Cheney felt emotional was that he was utterly without sensation.
That’s right, with so much time passed, Milton Cheney felt absolutely nothing.
Even Humans waking from sleep have some feeling, but Milton Cheney had no sensations from the moment he let go of his thoughts to the moment he regained them.
This was unlike any of his previous Reincarnation Simulations, where during every simulation, Milton Cheney could clearly sense the passage of time.
He could also clearly feel the impact time had on him.
Even the time he reincarnated in the True Spirit Realm was like this.
But this time was completely different; the concept of time in this world seemed almost imperceptible.
When actively sensed, it certainly exists.
But when one does not deliberately sense the passage of time, it seems as though it does not exist.
Only at this moment did Milton Cheney truly understand why the Abyssal does not reckon time.
Because perhaps, in the Abyssal, the concept of time simply does not exist.
Keep in mind, the fundamental reason Milton Cheney cared about time in the past was because he carried the memories of his previous life with him.
But other Demons born in this world, unlike Milton Cheney, do not carry such memories at birth.
In other words, apart from Milton Cheney, in the minds of all other Demons, the concept of time does not exist.
Before Milton Cheney could continue to contemplate, his Demon body finally broke through that critical point.
The Transformation had begun.
There was no fanfare, everything happened quietly and subtly.
