Chapter 489: Chapter 273 “Reincarnation Crystal” and “1,000,000 Years” (Please Subscribe)_1
Thoughts streaked through Milton Cheney’s mind.
After a moment, he gradually cleared these thoughts from his mind.
Milton shook his head slightly at the bottom of his heart.
Ultimately, this order war had come to an end at this moment, since he hadn’t received any more messages from the Master of Order.
That meant that at least for a while, everything within the order would be calm and peaceful.
Although there are occasions where order wars between different orders in the Crimson World take place in quick succession, such instances are very rare after all.
Having lost in this grand order war, Order Seventeen was most likely going to recuperate for some time.
That was the most probable possibility.
The loss of half its demons, even for Order Seventeen, was a significant blow.
If Milton were the Master of Order, he too would not immediately initiate another order war in a short period of time.
This period might be long, or it might not be.
However, at this time, Milton wasn’t particularly concerned about these matters, after all, they had little to do with him as a low-level demon.
If this period were long, Milton would naturally be pleased.
It pertained to whether he could evolve into a higher-level demon through entering a state of complete mental inactivity during this time.
But if the time wasn’t enough to support Milton’s transformation into a fourth-level demon, he had no other choice.
The main factors that decided the commencement of order wars weren’t up to him.
Thinking more about it wasn’t very meaningful.
It was precisely because of this that Milton temporarily suppressed those thoughts in his heart.
Feeling the waters of the Demonic Flame Pool, Milton’s demonic body stayed motionless.
At this moment, Milton once again began to perceive his surroundings and his own demonic body.
A moment later, Milton withdrew all perception.
That’s right, at this moment, Milton closed off his perceptual ability.
This also signified that Milton was about to re-enter the state of complete mental emptiness.
This was something Milton had already planned before.
Now that the order war had ended, Milton had no need to worry so much.
In the following period, no other demons would come to disturb him.
So, this time could be said to be the best opportunity for Milton to re-enter the state of complete mental emptiness to evolve his demonic body.
After all, for Milton at this time, although time was not the most important thing, it did have an extraordinary significance to him.
Although Milton had time to waste, he chose not to do so.
For him now, to transform again in this world and become a fourth-level demon was his most important goal at this time.
Because compared to other goals, this goal was the most practical.
As long as there was ample time and no accidents, then Milton was bound to become a true fourth-level demon in this world.
Of course, this was predicated on having ample time and no unexpected incidents during this period.
That’s why Milton wouldn’t choose to waste any time.
The most meaningful thing Milton could do now was to enter a state of complete mental emptiness.
Because in this state where he could not perceive the passing of time, time paradoxically flew by the quickest.
Time slowly passed, and Milton had now entered a state of complete mental emptiness.
At this time, he was oblivious to everything around him, and of course, he couldn’t possibly know what was happening outside.
There wasn’t much deviation from what Milton had surmised.
Order Seventeen may have lost the order war, but it didn’t have much to do with low-level demons like Milton.
Even with the defeat, the impact would not reach down to the level of low-level demons like them.
After Milton entered the state of complete mental emptiness, his territory fell into infinite silence.
Milton’s territory, belonging to a low-level demon, was utterly tranquil, but within the central palace of Order Seventeen, there was no such tranquility.
“My lord, the message has been sent back, the Nineteenth Demon asks us to cede a quarter of our entire territory.”
A voice that was neither too loud nor too soft spread throughout the palace of Seventeen.
If Milton were here, he would have recognized that the owner of this voice was not a stranger to him.
It was the advanced demon who once asked him to join Order Seventeen.
“He doesn’t dare to tell me personally. He only sent the message after I had left.”
The controller of Order Seventeen, seated in the main seat, spoke softly.
His tone revealed a hint of mild contempt.
Yet that was all that could be discerned from his words.
The advanced demons present didn’t know what their master was truly implying.
Of course, at this critical juncture, no other demons spoke up.
The vast palace of Seventeen plunged into silence after the Master of Order had spoken.
“He’s not after the territory, give it to him.”
“If he wants to pursue a Transcendence Path, then let him be. After all, that thing doesn’t hold much value to me.”
The Master of Order spoke indifferently, his voice devoid of any emotion.
After these words fell, the advanced demon who had just spoken nodded with an equally indifferent expression.
