Over these twenty years, the development of the Cheney Family had entered a stage of explosive growth.

Whether it was the power or the scale of the family, both had reached the level Milton Cheney expected.

Within Heavenly Lake Island.

Milton’s expression was calm as he stood there, with a grey-haired man respectfully standing behind him.

“Family Head, the map has been prepared for you. Are you planning to leave now?”

The man bowed and asked.

“The family is now on the right track, so there’s no need for me to manage it personally.”

“How is the resource integration going?”

Milton looked into the distance and asked softly.

By now, it had been over a hundred years since his reincarnation into this world, during which he had cultivated in the sea region of Heavenly Lake Island for the same amount of time.

By this point, he had already become a Great Cultivator at the late stage of the Golden Core Realm.

Although there was still a significant gap before reaching the Great Perfection of the Golden Core, this was already the limit that one could cultivate to in the sea region of Heavenly Lake Island.

After all, the highest quality spiritual vein here was but a third-stage low-grade one.

If it weren’t for Milton possessing a Heavenly Spiritual Root, the idea of cultivating to the late stage of the Golden Core in such an austere land would be a fool’s dream, impossible to achieve even within his lifetime.

Let alone the late stage of Golden Core, even reaching the early stage would be nearly impossible.

This was why the previously dominant family over Heavenly Lake Island’s sea region, the Cheney Family, had its strongest members only at the Great Perfection of the Foundation Establishment Realm.

Because in such conditions, forming a Golden Core was exceedingly difficult.

“All resources have been integrated. The Great Elder has instructed you to take more with you.”

Upon hearing this, Milton shook his head, “Those resources won’t be of much help to me. One-third is already sufficient.”

Although he planned to leave the sea region of Heavenly Lake Island, it didn’t mean that he wouldn’t return at all.

This place was, after all, one of his many refuges.

If Milton wanted, he could easily obtain any resources he desired.

Furthermore, he wasn’t developing the Cheney Family to extract benefits from them; to be honest, he didn’t hold their advantages in high regard.

“Has Lucas made up his mind?”

Milton asked.

As his words fell, the grey-haired man nodded.

“Lucas said he doesn’t plan to continue with cultivation and instead wants to focus on developing the family.”

The grey-haired man spoke with a hint of regret.

Actually, if Lucas Cheney didn’t compete for the Patriarch Position and devoted himself entirely to cultivation, with the support of the family’s resources, becoming a Golden Core True Immortal was not a remote possibility.

But this might not necessarily be a bad thing.

After all, having a high probability of becoming a Golden Core True Immortal wasn’t the same as a guarantee of success.

Although Lucas would no longer have the opportunity to become a Golden Core True Immortal, he now had a slot for a third-stage inner elixir, allowing him to become a quasi True Immortal.

Compared to a Golden Core True Immortal, a quasi True Immortal is considerably weaker and lacks the potential to progress further, but it can still extend one’s life by two hundred years.

In the world of cultivation, longevity is immensely precious.

The five hundred years of longevity for a quasi True Immortal, although not as long as the eight hundred years for a normal Golden Core True Immortal, is still much stronger than that of a Foundation Establishment Cultivator.

Currently, many members of the family are envious of Lucas, their eyes green with jealousy.

After all, becoming a Golden Core True Immortal is not an easy feat, and becoming a quasi True Immortal is something countless people wouldn’t even dare dream about.

“With the three remaining inner elixirs, the family can create three quasi True Immortals, ensuring that after I leave, the Cheney Family will remain an invincible presence within the sea region of Heavenly Lake Island.”

“The Elder’s Pavilion can handle the allocation of the inner elixir quotas. Once I’m gone, the family can gradually reveal some of its strength to prevent the shortsighted from prying.”

Indeed, these four third-stage inner elixirs were his gift to the family.

Though he did not give too many, four was enough.

In his Storage Ring, he still had dozens of third-stage inner elixirs.

Although the sea region of Heavenly Lake Island was impoverished, it had numerous Mystic Realms.

Some large Mystic Realms were once forbidden areas.

But in front of Milton Cheney, these Mystic Realms naturally could no longer be considered forbidden areas—they weren’t even challenging enough to serve as a training ground for him.

So, several years ago, Milton emerged from seclusion to clear out the high-level Mystic Realms within the sea region of Heavenly Lake Island, slaughtering nearly forty third-stage demon beasts, obtaining sixteen third-stage inner elixirs.

The four third-stage inner elixirs Milton left for the family were all third-stage low-grade.

These corresponded to the inner elixirs of demon beasts at the early stages of the Golden Core Realm.

It wasn’t that Milton was unwilling to give higher quality elixirs; rather, the family wouldn’t have been able to use them.

While the success rate for Foundation Establishment Cultivators to form a quasi Golden Core is relatively high, this is only comparatively speaking.

Using a third-stage low-grade inner elixir to achieve a quasi True Immortal has a high success rate, but the success rate drops frighteningly low when attempting it with a third-stage mid-grade elixir.

Only those cultivators with profound cultivation at the Great Perfection of Foundation Establishment would have a higher chance of success.

Ordinary late-stage Foundation Establishment Cultivators were capable of refining inner elixirs to become quasi True Immortals.

The success rate for a normal late-stage Foundation Establishment Cultivator to refine a third-stage mid-grade inner elixir is even less than one percent.

Regardless, despite being small, the sea region of Heavenly Lake Island has many Mystic Realms filled with treasures. Some items are even of great help to a late-stage Golden Core Cultivator like Milton.

Moreover, among these realms, there was one Mystic Realm where even Milton sensed a hint of danger, making it the only one he didn’t rashly explore.
