Milton Cheney’s consciousness gradually returned to clarity.

After regaining clarity, Milton instinctively began to sense his surroundings and the changes in his demon body.

As Milton had anticipated, his demon body had evolved significantly.

However, there was still a considerable distance to the Fourth Transformation.

This time, he again passively exited the state of complete mental void.

Last time such an event occurred, Milton had only speculated, and though he was somewhat certain, he wasn’t completely sure.

But now, Milton was completely certain.

That is, entering the state of complete mental void indeed had a time limit.

After all, once could be considered a coincidence, but the occurrence of a second time made it unlikely to be a coincidence, and of this, Milton was clear.

Last time was a million years; this time, although Milton did not know how long it had been,

he guessed it was very likely another million years.

If it was really due to the fundamental rules of the Crimson World for demons, then this time would certainly have a pattern.

Moreover, with the enhancement of the demon body this time, Milton could roughly estimate a time by comparing it with the first million years of enhancement.

Though the estimated time could not be said to be completely accurate, it was certainly close to the mark.

The rough time Milton calculated was indeed around a million years.

After sensing the changes in his demon body, Milton briefly sensed his surroundings and found that everything was exactly the same as before without any change.

“Judging by this rate of progress, to reach the critical point of the Fourth Transformation, I might need to enter the state of complete mental void three more times,”

Milton mused to himself within the Demonic Flame Pool.

This was not difficult to infer.

As Milton evolved further on the third-tier Demon Path,

he could vaguely sense how far a fourth-tier demon was from him.

Entering the state of complete mental void three times was Milton’s conservative estimate.

After all, apart from doing so, in reality, Milton could still naturally grow for hundreds of thousands of years.

Of course, for Milton, this time didn’t matter.

What he cared about was simply that no other accident should occur during this period.

If there were no accidents, even ten times wouldn’t be a problem, let alone three, for Milton.

At most, it would just take a bit longer.

However long the time might be, Milton would not be affected by it while in the state of complete mental void.

In this world, Milton had tested this countless times, so he naturally had this confidence.

“It seems the time ahead will still be filled with silent waiting,”

a thought rose in Milton’s mind.

He had now exited the state of complete mental void, and what followed was a cooling-off period.

However, having experienced it once, Milton had gained experience, so he had no other emotions at the moment.

Waiting was nothing but a simple task for Milton.

Thus, Milton cleared the clutter in his mind and entered a state of slight mental void.

If complete mental void could be likened to sleep for humans, then this slight mental void was akin to a brief rest with eyes closed.

Milton could still clearly sense the passage of time, but he had withdrawn his senses from the environment and everything around him.

In this state, time still had an influence on Milton,

but this influence was greatly reduced.

At least, it was much less than the impact of Milton roaming around.

Having reincarnated in the Crimson World for so long, Milton had fully adapted to the demons’ method of evolution.

Initially, this method might have been somewhat novel for Milton, but by now, any novelty had long since vanished.

At this point, Milton had only one desire, and that was to become a fourth-tier demon as quickly as possible in this world.

Of course, he couldn’t decide the speed.

But he could decide to minimize the impact during the process of becoming a fourth-tier demon.

After entering into a slight mental void, silence once again enveloped Milton’s surroundings.

Time slowly passed, and in the blink of an eye, fifty thousand years went by.

Inside the Demonic Flame Pool, Milton’s demon body didn’t make a single move, sitting motionless in the middle of the waters.

But at this moment, Milton’s heart was not devoid of emotion.

Because he could clearly sense time passing, Milton knew approximately fifty thousand years had lapsed since he last passively exited the state of complete mental void.

If this had occurred during the first exit from the state of complete mental void, it would have been insignificant.

But now it was not the first time for Milton to passively exit the state of complete mental void.

Milton clearly remembered that the previous ‘cooling-off period’ was only thirty thousand years.

Such details were naturally impossible for Milton to forget.

But this time, it had been fifty thousand years, and Milton still couldn’t enter the state of complete mental void.

After thirty thousand years had passed, Milton almost tried to enter the state of complete mental void every brief interval,

but regrettably, all these attempts proved meaningless.

Because the end result of these attempts was failure.
