Chapter 312: 187
Stellar Realm, the Ten Thousand Stars Island.
This is the largest ‘island’ within the Stellar Realm.
Yes, while this world is called the Stellar Realm, all the landmasses within it are actually islands.
These islands are all located on top of the Star Ocean of the Stellar Realm.
Ten Thousand Stars Island, as the largest island in the Stellar Realm, is equivalent to a vast continent.
Milton Cheney has been in the Stellar Realm for twenty years already for the task assigned by the Guardian Sea.
As soon as he came to the Stellar Realm, Milton settled in a temporary residence on Ten Thousand Stars Island, waiting for the right opportunity.
Although Milton has experienced text simulations and completed this task several times within the simulations.
Even though he possesses clear memories of how he accomplished the task, he was unable to complete it shortly after arriving in the Stellar Realm.
This is because this task is not instantaneous; it is a time-intensive mission.
Generally speaking, the tasks assigned by the Guardian Sea.
If they are safe, then the task timeline will be quite extensive.
On the contrary, if a task holds high risks, then the task cycle tends to be short-lived.
The task Milton has undertaken within the Stellar Realm is, generally speaking, not deemed as perilous.
This implies that to complete this task, Milton must spend a considerable amount of time here.
Even with a memory that could shorten the timeline of this task.
He will need to stay in this world for at least one hundred and fifty years.
At the edge of Ten Thousand Stars Island, within an inconspicuous tower.
This tower is Milton’s temporary residence in this world.
In the following days, he will spend most of his time here waiting for an opportunity to complete the task.
After all, only Ten Thousand Stars Island holds his task target, which generally appears around every two hundred years.
The fact that he arrived on this island as soon as he entered this world has saved him a lot of detours.
The first time he completed the task in text simulation, he spent nearly four hundred years.
This is the amount of time it took for him to complete the task when everything was still unfamiliar.
Four hundred years, even for a Level 4 Wizard like Milton, is quite considerable.
Let alone such a long time was spent on a task assigned by the Guardian Sea.
Furthermore, such tasks should be undertaken every sixty years.
This is because the tasks for Level 4 Wizards are difficult.
For Level 3 Wizards, the mission cycle is even shorter.
Usually, they need to take on a task from Guardian Sea within less than ten years.
Although the Guardian Sea, as the largest White Wizard Organization in the Wizard realm, does not have many members.
Due to its uniqueness, it does not conquer other planes.
One might assume that the survival rate of members of this organization should be extremely high.
But quite the opposite.
Within the Guardian Sea, 40% of members do not die of personal mishaps, rather they perish while on a mission issued by the Guardian Sea.
Milton’s spiritual power flowed out from his Spiritual Sea, attaching to a plant-like creature in front of him.
In front of Milton, on the potted plant, there was a pale blue flower similar to a morning glory.
When Milton’s psychic power attached to it, the pale blue morning glory swayed slightly.
This is the ‘Bait’ Milton needs for his task this time.
When mature, it can help him attract his mission’s target.
As time passes, Milton retracted his spiritual power after feeding the morning glory.
After reclaiming his spiritual power, Milton sat cross-legged on the bed.
He then began to practice the Meditation Technique along the mindfulness path.
Since the mission timeline is long, Milton naturally wouldn’t be wasting other time.
While completing the task, he, of course, would not slack off from practicing the Meditation Technique.
After all, even if this True Body Simulation is incredibly close to reality, it remains a simulation after all.
Being a simulation means everything he achieves in cultivation during the simulation will be carried into reality when the simulation ends.
Therefore, Milton will seize every opportunity to practice the Meditation Technique.
After all, practicing the Meditation Technique now would mean a greater increase in his real stats after the simulation ends.
Actually, the speed of practicing the Meditation Technique in the Stellar Realm is not slow at all.
It is even much faster compared to the speed of practicing the Meditation Technique in the Void Battlefield outside the Wizard Realm.
This is why he chose to continue practicing the Meditation Technique during the task period in the text simulation.
The Stellar Realm, having a similar environment to the Wizard Realm but fewer wizards, is like a natural Mystic Realm for wizards.
However, the progress of practicing the Meditation Technique in the Stellar Realm, while not slow, does not happen quickly either.
One can only say it’s not without any progress.
If it’s purely based on the speed of practice, here is surely incomparable to the Wizard Tower of the Guardian Sea.
Practicing here for three hundred years is roughly equivalent to practicing in the Wizard Tower for a hundred years.
Although this is a ratio of three to one, it’s already quite a high rate.
If one were to compare the Void Battlefield of the Wizard Realm with the Wizard Tower of the Guardian Sea.
Then practicing for a hundred years in the Wizard Tower of the Guardian Sea is roughly equivalent to nearly a thousand years in the Void Battlefield.
This discrepancy is indeed an immense one.
As time passed, fifty seasons have already gone by.
Stellar Realm, the Ten Thousand Stars Island.
In the blink of an eye, Milton has already spent seventy years on Ten Thousand Stars Island in the Stellar Realm.
