Chapter 633: 342 "The Era of 700 Eons" and "The Primitive Immortal Path" (Seeking Subscriptions)_1
After all, he was completely unfamiliar with the Immortal Courts that had existed in this world, so he had to concoct one.
As for the possibility of exposing any anomalies, Milton was not worried.
Since he mentioned the name Lotus Immortal Court, there were only two possibilities.
The first possibility was that the number of Immortal Courts that had appeared in this world was extremely limited, to the point where even the servant-disciple could clearly know all the Immortal Courts that had ever appeared in this world.
The second was the possibility that Milton hoped for.
That is, since the birth of this world, there had been countless Immortal Courts.
In this case, the servant-disciple probably couldn’t know the names of all the Immortal Courts.
Milton thought the likelihood of the second possibility was quite high.
After all, in the words spoken by the servant-disciple before him, he had already revealed a lot.
Of course, Milton couldn’t be one hundred percent certain, so his statement was a bit of a gamble.
He could have chosen not to say anything, to maintain silence, or even pretend that this part of his memory was lost as well.
But Milton didn’t do that.
He understood the principle of “too much of a good thing.”
However, just now, the contemplative expression that appeared on the servant-disciple’s face upon hearing him mention the Lotus Immortal Court had taken Milton by surprise.
Could it be that there really was a Lotus Immortal Court in this world?
Had he blindly stumbled upon the truth?
Several thoughts flashed through Milton’s mind in rapid succession, but in an instant, he suppressed them.
After all, if it turned out to be such a coincidence, it might not necessarily be a bad thing for him.
There was only a slight chance it could backfire.
Time slowly passed, and after a moment.
Once the servant-disciple Seal had carefully checked his memory over and over again, he could be certain that he had indeed not heard of the Lotus Immortal Court before.
“My memory does not contain the Lotus Immortal Court. Perhaps I can help you look it up in ancient texts later,”
“It seems that the era you came from in your previous life is indeed very distant from the present,”
Seal, having sorted out his memory, shook his head and spoke.
The instant Milton had spoken, Seal indeed felt a sense of familiarity from the four words ‘Lotus Immortal Court.’
But there was no Lotus Immortal Court in his memory.
This caused him a twinge of strangeness, but he quickly repressed this feeling.
After Seal finished speaking, Milton understood that the servant-disciple did not doubt the truthfulness of his words.
It seemed his worries had been somewhat superfluous.
Because of the way he had deliberately communicated before, the servant-disciple must have completely believed in his reincarnated Immortal being status.
Milton remained silent for a moment and then finally nodded, saying, “Thank you for the trouble.”
After he had spoken, a trace of joy appeared on the face of Seal.
Although he was not considered strong in this world, even so, reaching his current Realm had not been easy.
Cultivators who had reached his Realm were hard to emotionally influence.
Yet a simple sentence from Milton had involuntarily stirred a sense of excitement in him.
After all, Milton’s words signified his willingness to collaborate.
Indeed, he preferred to think of it as a partnership.
Because by now, he no longer saw Milton merely as an object of investment but as a partner with whom he could interact on equal terms.
He understood the simple truth that sincerity could elicit sincerity.
Even though investing could lead to failure, and might even endanger his life, Seal was no longer concerned about these risks.
Just the opportunity to invest was already a chance in itself.
In this current era, while there were not a few reincarnated Immortal beings, they were definitely not in abundance.
At least someone of his status had no way of making contact with that level.
If he hadn’t paid attention to Milton Cheney early on, this investment opportunity would not have been his to take.
What he didn’t know was that this was an investment bound to fail.
Because from the beginning, his placement of Milton’s identity had been wrong.
“You need to soon switch to the Cultivation Method you practiced in your past life, as the rules of the Immortal Realm are completely different from the prison world,”
“The Martial Arts you practiced and enhanced in the prison world, even after your modifications, are still unable to adapt to the rules of the Immortal Realm,”
“Once you step out of this barrier, the Realm of your Martial Arts path will face strong suppression,”
“But don’t be too anxious. After all, as soon as you break free from the prison world, you can be considered an Outer Sect disciple of the Black Moon Sect,”
“You may join the Sect and under my protection, switch to the Immortal Path of your previous life, which would minimize the chances of exposure,”
Seal said.
Although he knew that Milton was very likely aware of these things, he chose to repeat them anyway.
After all, Milton had admitted to memory loss, and he didn’t know exactly what was missing.
“I understand,”
Upon hearing this, Milton simply nodded and spoke indifferently,
seeming to be unconcerned.
In truth, his heart had taken note of all these details.
This world was indeed the Immortal Realm.
If Milton had been somewhat uncertain before, he was now completely sure of it.
