Milton Cheney asked lightly in return.

Although he spent most of the past hundred or so years cultivating within the Sect, he wasn’t entirely detached from worldly affairs.

Naturally, he wasn’t completely ignorant; he had some understanding of the Ascending Immortal Meeting.

Milton had never personally partaken in the once-every-two-hundred-years Ascending Immortal Meeting; his knowledge came from written accounts.

Therefore, his understanding of it wasn’t extensive, given that it didn’t concern him much.

After all, the true purpose of the Ascending Immortal Meeting was to recruit Highly Talented geniuses from within the Four Nations Region.

The Southern Sea Nation was also one of those Four Nations.

Though not the most powerful nation among the four, it could still be considered the second strongest.

Indeed, Milton was a genius, but he had joined his Sect in a different way and had no need for such methods anymore.

Moreover, the Purple Melody True Sect had last hosted the entire Four Nations’ Ascending Immortal Meeting eight hundred years ago.

Apart from the Ascending Immortal Meeting, the Four Nations also held a smaller version every forty years.

But while the smaller meetings were organized by individual nations, the grand event involved all four nations together.

When Gold Origin True Immortal had asked him to preside over the smaller meeting, he had already refused; refusing again this time might be a bit problematic.

“That’s right, the last time our Purple Melody True Sect hosted the Ascending Immortal Meeting was eight hundred years ago. I know you have little interest in this, and the old timers in the Sect feel the same way,”

“But you just happened to have a Breakthrough to Golden Core Great Perfection, which makes you an ideal candidate to attend.”

Gold Origin True Immortal nodded as he spoke, a trace of a smile on his face.

He was not at all bashful.

“Can’t the Cinnabar Peak Master go instead? I genuinely have no interest in this, and I’m not familiar with any of the Sect’s Disciples, how am I to lead the team?”

Milton Cheney said, somewhat helplessly.

He knew all too well that this hefty fellow wouldn’t summon him without reason.

Presiding over this Ascending Immortal Meeting truly wasn’t as appealing as continuing his Cultivation within the Sect.

Milton had just achieved Golden Core Great Perfection and was not far from the Nascent Soul Realm.

After all, he possessed the Heavenly Spiritual Root; there were no bottlenecks for him before reaching the Nascent Soul.

As long as he could cultivate his Spiritual Power to the Limit of Golden Core Great Perfection, he would naturally become a Nascent Soul True Monarch.

The span of time for this process might only amount to a little more than a hundred years.

Hearing this, Gold Origin True Immortal laughed and shook his head.

“Cinnabar is not within the Sect, nor even within the Southern Sea Nation’s Region; he went to the Cauldron True Sect to carry out a mission forty years ago.”

Gold Origin True Immortal explained.

As the Sect Leader, he was unable to leave the Sect.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have sought to trouble Milton.

He understood that Milton spoke the truth; he could see that Milton indeed had no interest in the Ascending Immortal Meeting.

But he himself was not very interested in it either, since he had joined the Purple Melody True Sect through the very same event.

Therefore, he was well aware of the procedures of the Ascending Immortal Meeting and had no curiosity about them.

For the ordinary Ascending Immortal Meetings occurring every two hundred years, some of the Sect’s old-timers were still willing to partake.

But this time, since the Purple Melody True Sect was hosting the event, it came with numerous tribulations and not many benefits, so naturally, none of the old timers wanted to lead the team.

Milton had just surprised him with a Breakthrough to Golden Core Great Perfection.

With this, there seemed to be no issue, as someone at Golden Core Great Perfection could most certainly command presence.

Without a Nascent Soul True Monarch, a Golden Core Great Perfection was practically an invincible entity.

Seeing that Milton remained silent, Gold Origin True Immortal grew somewhat exasperated.

“Don’t think too hard about it, it will only delay you for less than a year, although it is indeed a bit of a nuisance. You’ve already reached Golden Core Perfection, so when the time comes, just give a bit of a show of force and then delegate the tasks to people from other Sects.”

Gold Origin True Immortal tempted him.

Hearing this, Milton was also somewhat speechless.

How could he not understand this?

He was very aware that presiding over the so-called Ascending Immortal Meeting entailed some risks.

Since the four Sects of the Four Nations didn’t get along well, there was significant competition.

Under such circumstances, it was easy for accidents to occur.

If an accident did happen, he would be the front man.

Although the probability of an accident was low—as many sessions had gone by without incidents—low probability didn’t mean impossibility.

He inherently didn’t want to risk this Reincarnation Simulation.

After all, this simulation was a double-layered Reincarnation Simulation.

Milton’s minimal goal within this Reincarnation Simulation was to Cultivate to the Deity Transformation Realm.

However, after mulling it over for a moment, Milton finally nodded.

Since he had joined the Purple Melody True Sect, he should take care of some Sect affairs.

If he wanted to outright refuse this time, it wouldn’t be difficult.

After all, he had achieved Golden Core Great Perfection, and Gold Origin True Immortal was only in the late stage of Golden Core.

But if he truly refused outright, despite Gold Origin True Immortal seemingly not minding on the surface, there would inevitably be some estrangement in his heart.

Milton intended to Cultivate in the Purple Melody True Sect until he reached the Nascent Soul Realm.

Moreover, he had been using the Sect’s Spiritual Vein for Cultivation all this while and had scarcely taught any Disciples.

So after pondering for a moment, Milton still accepted the assignment for the Ascending Immortal Meeting.
