However, this stiffness had no effect on Milton Cheney.
For the past twenty years, Milton Cheney had been meditating in the Wizard Tower, barely moving.
He had been continuously practicing meditation for twenty years, never left the top of the Wizard Tower, not even to stand up.
It had been twenty years since he completed his last mission, and Cheney believed that the dangers left by the previous mission had now subsided a bit.
But there was no need for Cheney to take any risks.
He did not stop his meditation practices to leave the Guardian Sea and venture out.
After all, it involves the strong beings from the Bloody Sea Realm, and Cheney wasn’t clear how their minds worked.
But he knew, for those beings, twenty years were merely a flicker of an instant.
Even for Cheney, twenty years was nothing, let alone for the Level 5 Blood Descendant.
Twenty years, even sixty years, meant almost nothing to those beings.
The actual reason for his break from meditation wasn’t complex.
The first reason was that he had been practicing meditation for twenty continuous years, so he stopped to stretch his body.
The second reason was that he needed to replenish his cultivation resources, as the resources from the last replenishment were almost depleted.
The good news was that he didn’t lack magic stones now.
He just needed to convert the magic stones to corresponding cultivation resources, which was a straightforward process.
He didn’t need to leave the Guardian Sea, as all the steps could be completed within the Guardian Sea.
After leaving his Wizard Tower, Cheney paid a visit to Sir Stanhope Thompson’s Wizard Tower.
Cheney’s choice of the Wizard Tower as his unique building when he became a Level 4 Wizard was in part influenced by Sir Thompson.
After all, in the Guardians Sea, the only unique building he had seen was the Wizard Towers.
Fortunately, the architectural style of Wizard Towers appealed to him, so he simply adopted it.
Having exchanged for the necessary cultivation resources at Thompson’s place, Cheney left Sir Thompson’s Wizard Tower and returned to his own.
Back in the Wizard Tower, Cheney began to engage in the meditation routes and resumed the practice of the meditation technique.
There was still a long time left in this True Body Simulation.
At least for the next sixty years, Cheney wouldn’t risk leaving the Guardian Sea before the next mission arrived.
Although he knew about the future course of the Guardian Sea.
Still, for Cheney, the Guardian Sea undoubtedly served as the best sanctuary.
Here in the Guardian Sea, apart from his missions, he didn’t need to worry about anything else.
That included the currently fierce inter-realm war between the realms of wizards and the Bloody Sea.
This war, which enveloped the entire Wizard Realm, seemed to concern all wizards in the realm.
But it couldn’t affect Cheney, who was currently in the Guardian Sea.
……
Time passed quickly, and in a blink of an eye, forty years had gone by.
In the Guardian Sea, in the Wizard Tower, at the top.
Milton Cheney slowly opened his eyes, ending his meditation practice.
The spiritual power that lingered around him was summoned back into his Spiritual Sea.
The Book of Truth started to turn pages automatically, and Cheney’s consciousness appeared in the Task Space.
The moment his consciousness appeared in the Task Space, a ray of white light rushed towards his consciousness.
Cheney neither resisted nor dodged, he naturally merged with the white light.
The next moment, his consciousness was bounced away from the Task Space.
At the same time, a memory of this new mission appeared in his mind.
“Sure enough, it’s another unfamiliar mission.”
After digesting the memory of the mission, Cheney muttered to himself.
Just as he had imagined, this mission was different from any previous mission in the Text Simulation.
However, this mission was similar to the third mission he received in the Text Simulation.
This so-called Level 4 wizard’s mission was simple.
It could even be said to be easily executable.
If the previous two missions were key missions in a game, then this mission was just like a daily task.
The difficulty was not on the same level.
For Cheney, he could successfully accomplish this mission even as a Level 3 Wizard.
“Could it be that the difficulty of the third mission will decrease for everyone after becoming a Level 4 Wizard?”
“And each mission is different because the times are different, and those ‘identical’ missions don’t exist at this time?”
Contemplating this mission, Milton Cheney puzzled over why such a situation had arisen.
After mulling it over for a moment, Milton came up with a plausible explanation.
Still, he couldn’t be sure if that was indeed the case.
After all, he was no stranger to the Task Space of the Guardian Sea.
However, he didn’t quite understand how precisely this Task Space operated.
Dismissing further thoughts, Milton vanished from the Wizard Tower.
This mission was something he could easily accomplish.
Hence, Milton wouldn’t procrastinate, the sooner he completed the mission, the sooner he could return.
By the time this mission was over, it would almost be time for the final battle between the Wizard Realm and the Bloody Sea realm.
That period would undoubtedly be fraught with danger, hence, Milton Cheney had to ensure that he remained in the safest place during this time.
And where was the safest place?
It was self-evident – it was within the Guardian Sea.
At least for a thousand years after Mansour had devoured the Bloody Sea Realm.
As long as Milton didn’t take unnecessary risks, the Guardian Sea would indeed be the safest place for him.
Time passed, and seven years swiftly flew by.
Even for Milton, seven years was not a long time.
However, seven years later, Milton had completed the third mission he had undertaken in the Guardian Sea.
The mission wasn’t just simple in words, it was truly simple.
In the Void Space beyond the Wizard Realm.
Milton shook off his pursuers and, in one swift movement, entered the Third Rift.
The moment he returned to the Guardian Sea, Milton instantly summoned the Book of Truth to accept his completed mission.
After completing the mission, Milton moved and left the Pure White Sea Region, making his way back to his Wizard Tower.
The Inter-realm Battlefield of the Wizard Realm and the Bloody Sea Realm had reached a crucial juncture.
At this point, except for Milton, most other wizards had no notion of how this inter-realm war would end.
No wizard could have guessed.
Mansour, who had always played an invisible role in this inter-realm war, would be the ultimate and sole victor.
Of course, even if Milton knew this, he couldn’t have casually revealed it.
The True Body Simulation had virtually become indistinguishable from reality.
Milton’s actions in the True Body Simulation were no different than in the real world, always cautious and deliberate.
After returning to the Wizard Tower, Milton Cheney continued to cultivate the Meditation Technique using his Meditation Routes.
……
Time, at some point, seemed to have pressed the fast-forward button.
Ten years, fifty years, a hundred years…
Until three hundred and twenty years had passed.
The inter-realm war came to an end that year, also marking the one hundred and fiftieth anniversary of the Bloody Sea Realm’s consumption.
That year also marked the tenth year since the Guardian Sea officially declared war on all Realm-level Wizard Organizations in the Wizard Realm.
Nearly four hundred years had passed since he completed his second mission.
Guardian Sea, Pure White Sea Region.
A figure appeared out of thin air here, his facial expression unchanging.
No looking left or right, he simply appeared here for a moment and then vanished again.
Within the Wizard Tower, the figure of Milton Cheney materialized.
By the time he arrived, there was already someone there.
The only one with unfettered access to Milton’s Wizard Tower was a single person.
“Mentor, how did it go?”
Milton saw no surprise on Bane’s face and asked him.
Bane looked serious and shook his head slightly.
“It’s not ideal, the Task Space can no longer accept missions properly.”
Hearing this, Milton Cheney nodded slightly.
