The massive rhombus crystal was wholly white and transparent, with wisps of white light emanating from its surface.
The white light swirling above the rhombus crystal symbolized the Power of Destiny of the Tide Realm’s World Consciousness.
Milton Cheney’s expression remained unchanged upon witnessing this scene.
After all, it was not his first time seeing such a spectacle.
The other Realm Masters in this space made no move either, still seated in their respective positions.
Time slowly passed, and the Power of Destiny whirling around the surface of the rhombus crystal gradually increased.
This visible Power of Destiny transformed into fine threads that spread outward, enveloping the Realm Masters within this space.
Milton Cheney was no exception.
However, he offered no resistance.
After all, this situation represented no harm to him.
The space he currently occupied was the Destiny Space of the Tide Realm.
Everything transpiring within this space was essentially driven by the Innate Ability of the Tide Realm’s World Consciousness.
As a Realm Master of a Little World within the Tide Realm, such as Milton Cheney, it was natural that no adverse situations would arise.
Of course, the Tide Realm’s World Consciousness did not possess independent consciousness.
The rhombus crystal within this space could be considered as the external Avatar of the Tide Realm’s World Consciousness.
This Avatar was different from Realm Masters like Milton Cheney.
This is because the so-called external World Consciousness Avatar lacked the ability to think independently.
It operated more like an instinctive machine.
In fact, World Consciousness in any world almost always exists like an instinctive machine.
A case where the World Consciousness spawns an independent consciousness is exceedingly rare.
That is why, after pondering, the real-life Milton Cheney discarded the idea of the World Consciousness spawning an independent consciousness.
In this space, Milton Cheney slightly closed his eyes.
The Power of Destiny whirling around him gradually merged into his body.
Milton Cheney could distinctly sense a noticeable enhancement in his realm.
Such an enhancement was entirely beneficial to him and harbored no harm.
The reason was that this world was merely one he traversed during his Reincarnation Simulation and was not his Main World.
However, this might not be the case for other Realm Masters.
Because such enhancement actually represented the increasingly deep relationship between an individual and the world – the Power of Destiny.
As for Milton Cheney, regardless of how deep his bond with this world and the Tide Realm was, it didn’t matter.
After all, he would return to the Wizard Realm once his Reincarnation Simulation ended.
But for the other Realm Masters, the deeper the bond with the Tide Realm, the less freedom they had.
The other Realm Masters did not have a Simulator, so there was no talk of ending their simulation.
So while Milton Cheney was absorbing these Powers of Destiny, he was also observing the other Realm Masters’ reactions.
That’s right, observing.
In fact, Milton Cheney had been observing since his first arrival in this space.
Despite gaining considerably from his first visit, he refrained from rash action.
At times, he attempted even with the slightest certainty.
At other times, Milton Cheney would not attempt without a hundred percent certainty.
Simply put, it depended on the situation.
On this occasion, Milton Cheney evidently chose the latter.
Milton Cheney’s gaze occasionally lingered on some Realm Masters.
Those Realm Masters, on whom Milton Cheney’s gaze rested, all had one thing in common.
These were the Realm Masters instinctively resisting the Power of Destiny emanating from the rhombus crystal’s attempts to merge into their bodies.
This was clearly abnormal.
For the Realm Masters of Little Worlds in the Tide Realm, the pure Power of Destiny should ideally serve as the best tonic to enhance their strength.
The reason for resisting such a tonic was self-evident.
The supposed tonic was a poison to some Realm Masters.
And these Realm Masters, who saw the tonic as poison, were Milton Cheney’s targets.
Resisting the Power of Destiny indicated that these Realm Masters did not wish to entangle themselves deeper with the Tide Realm’s World Consciousness.
Likely, this scenario was aimed at shaking off the World Consciousness of the Tide Realm.
Of course, these were only Milton Cheney’s speculations.
He did not have a hundred percent certainty at this point to confirm these Realm Masters thought the same.
After all, other possibilities existed as well. Perhaps these Realm Masters simply didn’t wish to enhance their power?
Despite the Realm Masters being known as the Avatars of the World Consciousness.
Even the real Avatars of the World Consciousness had independent thoughts.
The vast majority of Realm Masters undoubtedly were not inclined to be confined within their own Little World.
After all, those who could become Realm Masters were invariably individuals of gifted talents.
Some common attributes existed among such people, and pride was one of them.
For the likes of them, their Little Worlds served both as strong fortresses and prisons that held them captive.
A black fog shrouded Milton Cheney’s face, making his expression unreadable to others.
Milton Cheney sat quietly in his seat, absorbing the Power of Destiny.
There was still ample time. He was in no hurry.
Considering the circumstances of the Tide Realm, there likely was a method to break free from the Power of Destiny.
Milton Cheney, however, was unaware of such a method at the moment.
His current ignorance did not mean that his future self would not discover it.
What he needed to do now was to hold steady.
As time slowly passed, the Power of Destiny emanating from the rhombus crystal began to fade gradually.
