Of course, if this period were long, even to the point where he would never be able to enter the state of complete mental emptiness again.
Then Milton Cheney would drag it out until the moment he became a fourth-level Demon.
Before he turned into a fourth-level Demon, apart from being utterly lost in this world, Milton Cheney would absolutely not end this Reincarnation Simulation voluntarily.
Milton Cheney hoped this period would not be too long.
Moreover, in his estimation, the cooldown period might at most be a hundred thousand years.
Milton Cheney’s current concerns were twofold.
The first was that he might not be able to enter the state of complete mental emptiness ever again.
This meant that any time passing after this simulation would be real-time for Milton Cheney.
If he wanted to become a fourth-level Demon, he might even have to spend an incredibly long period of time in this world.
This period would exceed all the simulation times Milton Cheney had experienced before.
The second was about the Order Seventeen he belonged to.
If Milton Cheney could once again enter the state of complete mental emptiness in the future, it still wouldn’t mean everything was fine.
After all, in the Crimson World, aside from the basic rules of the world, what could affect Milton Cheney was also the order he was part of.
If Order Seventeen were to erupt in an order war again, then Milton Cheney would unavoidably be pulled out of the state of complete mental emptiness.
In that case, the difficulty of becoming a fourth-level Demon would undoubtedly increase even more.
Milton Cheney was also not certain whether he could withstand the next order war.
Of course, the best scenario would be if nothing unexpected happened.
In that situation, Milton Cheney wouldn’t have any worries at all.
If an unexpected event had to occur, it would be best to happen after he became a fourth-level Demon. Then, whatever the accident, Milton Cheney would no longer care.
After all, by then he would have attained the goal he wanted to achieve in this world.
Milton Cheney didn’t care about subsidiary goals, but he was always fully committed to achieving his main goals.
As time slowly flowed, Milton Cheney, bathed in the Demonic Flame pool, slightly emptied his mind.
Although he could not completely empty his mind at this time, he was still able to do it to a certain extent.
He could still clearly sense the passage of time, but as for the perception of his surroundings, Milton Cheney deliberately chose not to sense it.
Milton Cheney was waiting for the natural flow of time.
He never lacked Patience, especially during simulations.
All the simulations he had done before made him wait for long periods.
Moreover, countless simulations had already built up Milton Cheney’s strong mindset.
Milton Cheney’s goal was never any single simulation.
Upon realizing the vastness of the Universe, his goal was always set on the Universe as a whole.
His current biggest goal was to become a Transcendent.
Whether it was Reincarnation Simulation, True Body Simulation, or Text Simulation, they were just tools for Milton Cheney to achieve this larger goal.
To achieve this big goal, a strong mindset was essential.
Even if an unexpected situation were to genuinely arise in this Reincarnation Simulation, at most a flicker of disappointment would flash through Milton Cheney’s mind, and nothing more.
Time slowly passed, and in the blink of an eye, three Abyssal Cycles had gone by.
In Milton Cheney’s understanding, that amounted to thirty thousand years.
In these thirty thousand years, Milton Cheney would attempt to enter the state of complete mental emptiness at regular intervals.
Unfortunately, these attempts all failed.
By now, Milton Cheney had extended the possible cooldown period to as long as a hundred thousand years.
He believed that the longest it should be is a hundred thousand years.
If he still couldn’t enter the state of complete mental emptiness after a hundred thousand years, it meant that Milton Cheney might have lost this ability.
However, Milton Cheney was quite relaxed about it.
Whether it was thirty thousand or a hundred thousand years, or even the inability to ever enter the state of complete mental emptiness again.
There were differences, of course, but to Milton Cheney, they were not that significant.
Naturally, Milton Cheney wished he could enter the state of complete mental emptiness as soon as possible.
But sometimes, wishes are of no use at all.
In the Demonic Flame pool, Milton Cheney recovered from the state of slightly emptying his mind, once again attempting to enter the state of complete mental emptiness.
However, this attempt surprised Milton Cheney somewhat.
“It’s actually possible.”
A thought stirred in Milton Cheney’s heart.
Indeed, he once again felt a familiar sensation.
What Milton Cheney didn’t expect was that he didn’t need ten thousand years, and after just thirty thousand years, the cooling period had arrived.
But the appearance of this situation was merely a minor surprise to Milton Cheney; other than that, he had no other emotions.
After all, Milton Cheney had long anticipated the emergence of this situation.
He just didn’t expect it to come so quickly.
The next moment, Milton Cheney did not actively resist this feeling.
He gradually became unable to sense everything around him, as well as the passage of time.
A moment later, Milton Cheney once again entered a state of complete mental emptiness.
At the same time, within a mysterious and vast space,
a demon body so colossal that it could rival a world remained utterly still.
If Milton Cheney were here, he could recognize the visage of this demon body.
Indeed, it was the ruler of Order Seventeen, the only level eight demon within Order Seventeen.
“Nineteen actually dares to choose a reincarnation summoned by consciousness. In this way, even memories may not be fully retained.”
“Has nineteen gone mad in his pursuit of becoming a Transcendent?”
Seeming to perceive something, two thoughts emerged in the mind of the Society Master of Order Seventeen.
He was somewhat unable to understand; given that one already possesses a Reincarnation Crystal, then why not choose a natural reincarnation, rather than using the Reincarnation Crystal in such a redundant manner.
In doing so, wouldn’t the possibility of becoming a Transcendent be even lower?
Using the Reincarnation Crystal as the matrix for natural reincarnation into a world of the World Sea can retain complete memories.
But if using the Reincarnation Crystal as an offspring for reincarnation into a world of the World Sea, that’s incredibly passive.
Although it is a complete consciousness reincarnating, it cannot retain all memories.
Moreover, due to the complete consciousness guiding the reincarnation, it is particularly easy for the strong beings of the World Sea to detect something amiss.
After all, those powerful entities within the World Sea treat natives and Outer Domain Visitors in two completely different manners.
Just one minor mistake, and it’s an utter defeat.
This is practically leaving no leeway for oneself.
Such an action provides only an insignificant bit of help in the moment of becoming a Transcendent and virtually no other benefits.
However, note that both choices for reincarnation result in true death if the reincarnated body dies.
The Society Master of Order Seventeen had not at all anticipated that Nineteen would make such a choice.
Because the choice made by Nineteen would not be of any help to him, regardless of whether he can truly become a Transcendent afterwards.
The reason is simple, no matter what, he would not make such a choice.
Even if Nineteen could indeed become a Transcendent as a result, he would not take the risk.
Because this choice almost offers no advantage, similar to those demons summoned directly from the Demon Mother River.
It’s just that Nineteen had some additional memories.
And even these memories are not complete.
Thinking this, the Society Master of Order Seventeen shook his head inwardly.
He knew the chances of Nineteen’s success were minuscule.
This possibility is even lower than the likelihood of directly becoming a Transcendent in the Abyss.
It also means that his plotting this time was meaningless.
However, it was just the loss of a Reincarnation Crystal, which he could still accept.
As for those demons that died, he was even less concerned about them.
Time slowly passed by.
In the blink of an eye, a hundred Abyssal cycles had passed.
Milton Cheney, in the depths of the Demonic Flame Pool, also revived from the state of complete mental emptiness.
