Chapter 650: Chapter 350 “Entering the Slashing Longevity Realm” and “Shearing the Wool Completely” (Seeking Subscriptions)_2

“`

But that faint smile only appeared for a moment before Milton Cheney tucked it away.

To have reached the realm of Slashing Longevity Loose Immortal, comparable to that of a Seventh Stage Wizard Immortal, was an achievement he had realized in this Reincarnation Simulation.

It could be said that when Milton first reincarnated into this world, he never thought he could take this step.

“Congratulations.”

Suddenly, a voice entered Milton’s ears.

Milton temporarily set aside the jumble of thoughts in his mind and looked towards the seal official sitting cross-legged not far away.

A smile was present on the face of the seal official at the moment, as if he were in a very good mood.

It wasn’t as if he seemed to be in a good mood; the seal official was indeed feeling pleased.

Milton’s breakthrough into the realm of Slashing Longevity meant that his preparations had not failed.

Although the cost had been significant, the gains were also immense.

Because he had preemptively helped Milton graft a lifespan foundation with the Immortal Technique of Transplanting Blossoms, all Milton needed now was to continue his cultivation for several tens of millions of years to surpass him and reach the limit of the Slashing Longevity Realm.

By then, Milton could start to reciprocate.

He was becoming a little impatient.

He had even decided that when his own lifespan was reduced to ten million years, he would have Milton forcibly open the Immortal Door and ascend the Immortal Path.

With the restrictions of a Heavenly Path contract and Milton already at the limit of the Slashing Longevity Realm by then, he wouldn’t be able to refuse him.

If Milton failed, then they would both be done for, but if Milton succeeded, then he might even have a chance at achieving immortality.

If it weren’t for the chance at such an opportunity, why would he have paid such a heavy price?

After all, the Heavenly Path contract hadn’t forced him to invest so much.

In this way, was this not a blessing in disguise?

Thinking this, the seal official’s mood became even more delightful, unconcerned even as his vitality continued to dissipate.

“Thank you.”

Seeing the smile on the seal official’s face, Milton also spoke with a light smile.

Thank me?

Hearing Milton’s words, the seal official was somewhat surprised.

Because he felt that Milton should have guessed his intentions.

If Milton had guessed his intentions, why would he be thanking him now?

Between him and Milton, their relationship was already an open and mutual use of each other.

Could it be that Milton hadn’t guessed his thoughts and simply thought that he, having damaged his lifespan foundation, was giving up on himself?

With this thought, the seal official shook his head and decided not to ponder on it anymore.

It seemed improbable; how could a reincarnated Immortal Being possibly fail to understand why he would do such a thing.

But regardless of whether Milton had guessed his intentions, he was now past the point of no return.

And he didn’t feel any guilt in his heart either since, despite his intentions to use Milton, he had invested quite a lot already.

If it weren’t for him, even a reincarnated Immortal Being like Milton couldn’t have grown so rapidly.

Even if it was just an exchange of benefits, Milton hadn’t suffered any loss.

If Milton truly managed to return to the Immortal Human Realm in the future, it would be Milton who owed him more, not the other way around.

“No need to thank me, our relationship is merely a tangle of interests,” said the seal official.

If it had been the old him, he would never have said something like that.

But now, he no longer needed to consider anything else.

After all, he had already invested everything he could in Milton, and with the constraints of the Heavenly Path contract, there was no need to be polite with Milton anymore.

Even if Milton resented him, there was nothing he could do about it.

He had to admit, there was a secret pleasure in being so blunt and candid about his feelings.

He would never dare to speak like this in front of a true Immortal Being.

But speaking this way in front of a reincarnated Immortal Being seemed not bad at all.

Upon hearing these words, Milton wasn’t surprised, merely looking deeply at the seal official.

Just as the seal official had thought, Milton had long understood why the seal official had done all this.

The mere possibility of his future success alone couldn’t have made the seal official pay such a heavy price.

Transplanting Blossoms, the Forbidden Technique Seal; these were extremely precious even in the Immortal Realm.

Yet he had still spoken those words of gratitude.

The reason, well, that was simple.

It was merely an expression of pure gratitude.

After all, the seal official had invested so much in him thus far, and he hadn’t started repaying it yet.

It could be said that Milton had already shorn the seal official bare.

And at this moment, Milton Cheney could clearly perceive the state of his body.

Although the lifeforce within his body was exceptionally vast, there seemed to be an insurmountable rift suddenly lying before him.

That is to say, at this point, Milton Cheney had reached the limit of his Realm in this Reincarnation Simulation; there was no further progress to be made.

Even if there was a path ahead, Milton Cheney could no longer traverse it.

The initial phase of the Slashing Longevity Realm was the ultimate limit that Milton Cheney could attain in this World.

It’s just that Milton Cheney was aware of this, but the scribe was still kept in the dark.

The scribe wanted him to break through to the limit of the Slashing Longevity Realm and then nourish his own body; Milton Cheney actually wished the same.

After all, breaking through to the limit of the Slashing Longevity Realm would indeed be of substantial benefit to Milton Cheney.

After returning to reality, the realms achieved in the Reincarnation Simulation would be fully reflected upon his physical form without reservation.

The limit of the Slashing Longevity Realm was already equivalent to the limit of a Seventh Stage Wizard Immortal.

Having reached this realm, Milton Cheney might even stand a chance of arm-wrestling with Mansour in reality.

But the problem was that Milton Cheney couldn’t achieve it at present.

He didn’t believe that the scribe could help him break the Simulator’s boundaries.

Forget the scribe; Milton Cheney thought that even the Immortal Emperor of the Immortal Realm might not be able to break the Simulator’s limitations for him.

Watching the smile that emerged on the scribe’s face at this moment, Milton Cheney felt an inexplicable sense of pity in his heart.

But in the next instant, this sense of pity disappeared entirely.

“You may continue to digest the lifeforce essence within your body; I will remain here in this Little World for the next thirty million years to act as your protector,” the scribe said directly, seeing that Milton Cheney seemed to have no intention of continuing his cultivation.

Since everything was out in the open, there was no need for the scribe to beat around the bush in his conversation with Milton Cheney.

As soon as these words were uttered, a moment of silence fell upon Milton Cheney.

A short while later, Milton Cheney nodded slightly.

Actually, Milton Cheney wanted to try and see if there was a sliver of possibility that he hadn’t yet reached his Limit.

But once cultivation began, Milton Cheney inwardly admitted that it was indeed as he had expected.

The energy that diffused from the lifeforce essence kept integrating into his body, but he no longer experienced any improvement whatsoever.

Hm?

The scribe, who had been observing Milton Cheney, also showed a slight change in expression, as if he too had noticed something amiss.

However, he didn’t think much of it.

……

The gears of time continued to turn unceasingly.

Before they knew it, millions of years had passed again in the Immortal Realm.

It had been a full 3.2 million years since Milton Cheney successfully broke through to the Loose Immortal Realm of Slashing Longevity.

“Stop!”

At a certain moment, the scribe exclaimed in alarm.

His expression as grim as the deep waters, his voice thundering through the Little World like a startling clap of thunder.

Naturally, Milton Cheney heard this voice as well.

Finally, he couldn’t restrain himself anymore.

Milton Cheney felt somewhat helpless in his heart.

He too wished to continue advancing, to catch a glimpse of the scenery beyond the realm of Immortal Beings.

But with the Simulator’s restriction in place, it was simply impossible to do so.

In the many Reincarnation Simulations that Milton Cheney had gone through, there were numerous occasions when he reached the Simulator’s defined boundary of a realm.

But to talk about breaking the Simulator’s restrictions to enter a higher realm, that had never occurred even once.

“Why is it that even though you are continuously absorbing energy from the lifeforce essence, you show no signs of improvement?”

The scribe asked, demanding an answer.

His tone was laced with an uncontrollable anger.

He believed that Milton Cheney was toying with him, intentionally not advancing his realm any further.

Beyond the anger, the scribe felt an incomprehensible confusion and perplexity.

Why would he do this?

Was Milton Cheney not afraid of a mutually assured destruction?

What good would this do for Milton Cheney himself?

In addition to anger and confusion, deep down the scribe also harbored a fear that he himself couldn’t fully comprehend.
