Chapter 494: Chapter 275 “Changes in Cooldown Time” and “The Fourth Transformation” (Subscribe Please)_2

This situation caught even the unflappable Milton Cheney by surprise.

Fortunately, Milton Cheney had considered this possibility before, so he quickly accepted it.

After all, there were only two reasons for this situation to occur.

The first reason was an idea Milton Cheney had entertained in the past.

It was that he could never achieve a state of complete mental emptiness again, most likely because his body had reached its limit.

Unable to improve any further, he naturally couldn’t enter the state of complete mental emptiness anymore.

However, Milton Cheney believed the likelihood of this reason was quite small.

Because in these fifty thousand years, Milton Cheney had occasionally sensed the changes in his demonic body.

Although the evolution of his demonic body wasn’t as significant as the enhancement brought by entering a state of complete mental emptiness, there was still improvement.

This indicated his demonic body had not yet reached its limit.

Thus, the second reason Milton Cheney speculated seemed more probable.

That was, as his demonic body became stronger, the ‘cooldown period’ for this state grew longer as well.

This hypothesis came to Milton Cheney’s mind after three thousand years had passed in reality.

Milton Cheney believed that it was very likely the case.

After all, if the ability to enter a state of complete mental emptiness hadn’t been lost, then the reason he couldn’t enter at this time was probably just that it wasn’t time yet.

And this undoubtedly meant that the ‘cooldown period’ had increased.

By how much had it increased?

Milton Cheney didn’t know.

He wasn’t omniscient, so it was natural that he couldn’t know everything.

However, as long as he could still enter the state of complete mental emptiness later on, the duration of this period wouldn’t have much impact on him.

It was like humans needing to sleep when they are tired.

If Milton Cheney felt that time in this world was affecting him, entering a state of complete mental emptiness once would restore him.

This was something Milton Cheney realized after his last experience of complete mental emptiness.

Because at that time, time still had some effect on him.

But after emerging from the state of complete mental emptiness, he found that all these effects seemed to have disappeared.

Therefore, Milton Cheney believed it was likely that this state had such limitations for this very reason.

After all, to enter this state was rather preposterous.

It was akin to stacking up buff on buff to enhance benefits and negate negative effects.

Time slowly passed, in the blink of an eye, another ten thousand years had elapsed.

Within the Demonic Flame Pool, Milton Cheney’s consciousness suddenly stirred.

Because at that moment he suddenly felt something different.

After sixty thousand years, he could enter the state of complete mental emptiness once again.

“Last time was thirty thousand years, this time is sixty thousand years; does it double each time?”

At this moment, Milton Cheney mused to himself.

If the ‘cooldown time’ really doubled with each instance, that would be rather concerning.

At first, it would be fine; it wouldn’t affect Milton Cheney much.

But as time passed, especially later on, that would become quite exaggerated.

Milton Cheney was all too aware of the terror of exponential increase.

If that were true, the cooldown time might reach tens of millions of years after just ten instances.

This would also mean that with his current state of mind, it was absolutely impossible for him to become a Level 5 Demon in this world.

After all, just waiting for the time, Milton Cheney couldn’t possibly endure without being affected.

Even though within this waiting period, Milton Cheney could still evolve slowly.

Of course, the reality might not necessarily be so.

Since it only happened once, there was a great possibility it was just a coincidence.

If the next cooldown period extends to one hundred and twenty thousand years, then it could not possibly be a coincidence.

However, the likelihood that it was a coincidence was incredibly high.

After all, changing from thirty thousand to sixty thousand years could simply mean adding thirty thousand years, not necessarily doubling.

Thirty thousand years is just a base figure, and this was also quite possible in Milton Cheney’s estimation.

Of course, whether this is the case will only be known after he emerges from the state of complete mental emptiness this time and then waits to enter this state again.

The span of time here seemed to be incredibly long, but for Milton Cheney, it wasn’t very long at all.

A moment later, the thoughts in Milton Cheney’s heart were gradually suppressed to the bottom of his heart.

Because at this time, he had once again entered a state of complete emptiness and surrender of consciousness.

At this moment, Milton Cheney not only lost his perception of the surrounding environment and of his own demon body but also completely lost his perception of time.

Having entered the state of complete emptiness of consciousness, time no longer had any impact on Milton Cheney.

And under this state, the passage of time was remarkably fast.

In the blink of an eye, another hundred Abyssal cycles had passed in the Abyss.

In terms of time comprehensible to Milton Cheney, a million years had elapsed.

Order Seventeen, Milton Cheney’s territory, within the Demonic Flame Pool.

Milton Cheney, who had been in the state of complete emptiness of consciousness, gradually began to emerge from it.

At this moment, Milton Cheney instinctively first sensed the changes in his demon body.

Without surprise, just as he had imagined, the evolution of his demon body was still within his expectations.

If the rate of evolution in the subsequent transformations remained as he predicted, then after entering the state of complete emptiness another two times, he should be able to smoothly become a Level 4 demon.

“However, the further time progresses, the higher the possibility of Order Seventeen bursting into a new Order War,” he mused.

“I just hope that doesn’t happen, and if an Order War must burst forth, let it be after I have become a Level 4 demon.”

At this moment, Milton Cheney said to himself.

Of course, it was just a faint hope of his.

Whether reality would unfold as he hoped, Milton Cheney was unclear.

Several thoughts swiftly flashed through Milton Cheney’s mind.

He had already compared this evolution with the previous two and knew that this time, a million years had passed without needing to go out and ask.

But at this time, Milton Cheney was not curious about the time spent after entering the state of complete emptiness.

At this moment, he was somewhat curious whether the ‘cooldown time’ would really double as he had speculated.

After all, it could be a coincidence once, but for it to double twice was almost an impossibility.

A moment later, Milton Cheney stopped dwelling on it further.

At this time, the evolution and enhancement of his demon body had already become a process.

As Milton Cheney briefly let go of his consciousness, time in the Abyss continued to pass unwaveringly.

Until ninety thousand years later.

In the Demonic Flame Pool, Milton Cheney’s mind stirred.

For at this time, a subtle change once again appeared in his perception.

This kind of change was all too familiar to Milton Cheney.

“Just as I thought, it isn’t doubling but is instead increasing sequentially based on increments of thirty thousand years,” he said to himself.

If at this time he still couldn’t figure out why, it was almost impossible.

The first time thirty thousand years, the second time sixty thousand years, the third time ninety thousand years.

This had almost ruled out all other options; even if it was said to be a coincidence both times, that possibility wasn’t entirely out of the question.

However, compared to this slight possibility, the likelihood of it increasing sequentially based on increments of thirty thousand years, as Milton Cheney had guessed, was greater.

Having sorted this out, Milton Cheney felt no other emotions in his heart.

It was a rather good thing for him.

But to say it was particularly important was not quite so.

After all, Milton Cheney’s goal in this world was merely to become a Level 4 demon.

In Milton Cheney’s understanding, a Level 4 demon in this world should be comparable to a Level 5 Wizard in the Wizard Realm.

Once again entering the state of complete emptiness of consciousness, other thoughts in Milton Cheney’s heart also ceased to exist.

In a fleeting moment, another hundred Abyssal cycles had passed.

Milton Cheney also emerged from the state of complete emptiness of consciousness once again.

And after the next time he entered that state, he would complete his Fourth Transformation.
