: “Condensing Dao Fruit” and “Ultimately Becoming a Unification Dao Monarch” (Subscribe Please)_1
Time galloped by, and in the blink of an eye, a millennium had passed.
Lotus Sacred Ground, Sacramental Mountain.
Milton Cheney and the white-robed elder sat cross-legged facing each other, with a wooden chessboard floating in mid-air between them.
On the chessboard, black and white pieces intertwined like two massive dragons in battle.
However, even a novice could see that the black pieces had little chance at this point.
Encircled by the white dragon’s entrapment, the black pieces were running out of breath.
Milton Cheney, handling the black pieces, was indeed about to lose this game.
After all, he was far from a match in chess skills compared to the Lotus Saint Master, who had cycled through the Reincarnation Cycle countless times.
“You’ve decided to condense the Dao Fruit?”
“Condensing the Dao Fruit is different from any Great Realm breakthrough you have attempted before. If you fail in an earlier breakthrough, there might still be a chance to keep you alive, but once you begin condensing the Dao Fruit, it can’t be halted, and failure will certainly lead to the dispersal of your essence and direct demise,” said the white-robed elder, placing a white piece on the board and speaking in a soft voice.
At these words, Milton Cheney nodded calmly.
His foundation had already reached the limit of Deity Transformation Great Perfection.
Although he had been a part of Lotus Sacred Ground for just over a thousand years—a relatively short time—
With full support from the Sacred Ground, the sheer number of cultivation resources Milton Cheney had consumed was a staggeringly high figure.
If Milton Cheney hadn’t agreed to join the Lotus Sacred Ground at the Lotus Saint Master’s request—
To accumulate his foundation to its current state, the amount of Power of Merit consumed would have been no less than a hundred strands.
In other words, this millennium had saved Milton Cheney the expenditure of hundreds of strands of the Power of Merit.
Now, he had prepared everything that needed to be readied.
Not just everything prepared, he even had a reserve of seventy-eight strands of the Power of Merit.
If even this couldn’t enable him to condense the Dao Fruit and achieve the status of a Monarch, then there was no point for him to remain in this world and face disgrace.
“I can feel that I’ve reached the limit of Deity Transformation Perfection, and there’s no further progress to be made,”
“Whether I start condensing the Dao Fruit now or when my lifespan is nearing its limit, the outcome will not change,” Milton Cheney spoke indifferently.
As he talked, Milton Cheney subtly infused Spiritual Power, and a black piece fell onto the board.
“I will not lose this game,” Milton Cheney said softly as he laid down the piece.
His tone seemed to carry a double meaning.
The moment his voice faded, the situation drastically shifted on the chessboard!
The momentum of the black pieces instantly grew from weak to overwhelmingly powerful, putting pressure on the white pieces.
The previously weak black dragon, in a flash, revealed its fierce fangs.
Seeing this, the white-robed elder shook his head in resignation and chose to concede the game.
He had already lost this game, but fortunately, he didn’t care much about losing a single game of chess.
Moreover, over the years, he had won countless games against Milton Cheney.
But Milton Cheney was indeed extraordinary, achieving such a realm in his first life; his Comprehension was exceptionally high.
Only a thousand years had passed, yet already he was struggling under the chess prowess of Milton Cheney.NôvelDrama.Org © content.
Where he once had a record of a hundred victories in a hundred games, now he could at best secure eighty victories out of a hundred.
“Well then, since you’ve made your decision, choose a day soon to start condensing the Dao Fruit,” the elder said.
“Your foundation is profound, and your basis solid. The likelihood of successfully condensing the Dao Fruit is very high.”
“In my estimation, the probability of your success is even over thirty percent. Once successful, your future is almost certain to lead you to becoming a Tribulation Crossing Immortal,” said the white-robed elder, not looking at the chessboard any longer, his expression shedding its earlier reluctance.
As he spoke solemnly, a faint zeal could be heard in his voice.
The future he referred to, naturally, was not just Milton Cheney’s next life, but after countless cycles of Reincarnation.
After all, in his eyes, even if Milton Cheney succeeded this time, he would at best only be at the early stage of the Unification Realm.
Even though he was not the oldest entity in the Unification Realm, a junior stage practitioner did not concern him.
What he cared about was Milton Cheney’s identity—a person who could reach Unification in his first life, for it signified the certainty of achieving immortality.
The Lotus Saint Master had lived too long, and memories preserved from countless reincarnations endowed him with a tremendous foundation.
It also exposed him to many more secrets.
For instance, such extraordinary individuals as Milton Cheney would surely become immortals if they could condense the Dao Fruit in this life. There was no second possibility unless the world itself perished.
Such a person was indeed an opportunity for him.
Having met Milton Cheney in his first life, he naturally would not let slip such a favorable chance.
Regardless of whether Milton Cheney could break through to the Unification Realm this time, he had already tied Milton Cheney’s fate to his own.
If Milton Cheney indeed became immortal in the future, then his own chances of achieving immortality would greatly increase.
His aspirations were indeed grand.
But still, he could not break free from the constraints of his imagination.
Because the Lotus Monarch couldn’t possibly know that Milton Cheney had no ability to reincarnate—he had this one and only life to live.
Of course, these were things he did not know, and naturally, Milton Cheney wouldn’t take the initiative to reveal them.
In fact, Milton Cheney was already tied to Lotus Monarch, though it would only last a single lifetime, but for Milton Cheney, one lifetime was no different from all cycles of Reincarnation.
For Milton Cheney had no other cycles of Reincarnation to call his own.
