Chapter 733: Chapter 447: Failure_2
Colin didn’t have much time to think. After pondering for a moment, he quietly descended into the cavity and completely sealed off the passage behind him.
Using the last of his energy, he carefully inspected the small cave in front of him, then deployed the Silver Chamber and sat cross-legged.
"Phew!"
As soon as his body relaxed, a dark red clot of blood surged out and fell to the ground, emanating bizarre fluctuations.
Whoosh!
An orange-yellow flame immediately landed on the blood, burning it up completely.
Colin’s face was as pale as Golden Paper. He took several deep breaths, which finally brought him some relief.
The translucent stream of light used by Calvin wasn’t as simple as it looked. That was a Fourth Rank attack, and strictly speaking, its full power should have been even stronger than the modified Robert Explosion Skill he had used when escaping.
It was only because Calvin initially intended to capture him alive that he didn’t use his full strength. Otherwise, Colin’s condition would have been even worse than it was now.
In fact, even now, the residual energy from those attacks was still causing him immense pain, even damaging his soul.
If it weren’t for his Knight Cultivation, which made his body extraordinarily strong and consequently his soul also unusually resilient—not to mention his Strong Life Talent—he wouldn’t have been able to escape this far.
Compared to this, the injuries caused by the improved Roberta Explosion Technique seemed almost insignificant, merely charring his back almost to cinders.
Swoosh!
After slightly adjusting his condition, Colin didn’t delay; he flipped his hand and took out a crystal-clear bottle of red liquid from his Storage Ring.
This was Divine Blood!
There wasn’t much Divine Blood left in the Crystal Bottle.
However, based on the previous situation, it should be just enough to convert all the Red Light Blood Qi in his body into Golden Blood Qi.
Unfortunately, for now, he could only use it for healing first.
Divine Blood could strengthen Blood Energy, and naturally, it also aided physical injuries. Since the body and soul were inseparable, as long as he could stabilize his body’s condition, his soul’s injuries would naturally begin to heal over time.
Pop.
Opening the bottle, Colin was about to absorb a drop of Divine Blood with his spiritual power, but he found the Divine Blood in the diamond-shaped Crystal Bottle suddenly began to agitate.
It whirled inside the bottle, continuously striking in a certain direction.
"Bottom-right direction... What in the depths of the cave is attracting the Divine Blood?" Colin was startled in his heart.
"First, I must heal!"
He shook his head, forcibly absorbed a drop of Divine Blood with his spiritual power, then closed the lid of the Crystal Bottle. The tight seal of the Crystal Bottle isolated everything, and the Divine Blood resumed its calm state.
Two minutes later.
Whoosh!
Suddenly, Colin opened his eyes and spat out a large mouthful of dark red blood mixed with translucent energy.
Whoosh!
Still using flames to burn it up, Colin immediately felt a surge of relief throughout his body. With the translucent energy’s oppression gone, his Strong Life Talent began to work at full throttle. In just a moment, his complexion had visibly improved, the holes in his body began to heal, and the charred skin on his back gradually recovered.
Crack, crack, crack—
He quickly packed up the Silver Chamber and chose a direction at random, continuing his escape.
The small cave returned to silence.
...
Boom!
Before long, a figure suddenly burst through the rock wall and descended into the small cave.
Calvin bent down and examined the charred marks on the ground, his expression as dark as water.
"I underestimated you... truly underestimated you!" His lips moved silently, his teeth clenched tightly, "Even Soul-devouring Light could be dispelled..."
Boom!!!
A ball of White Light suddenly erupted from Calvin’s body. The rock walls around him began to crumble under the powerful Energy impact.
Calvin looked around and suddenly paused.
A section of the rock wall showed signs of being cut, identical to the path he had taken to get there.
"I’ve found you!"
He leaped toward that path.
However, after only a moment of traversing, the cutting marks disappeared, and Calvin emerged from the rock wall into a narrow cave passage.
"Damn!" He cursed silently. After deliberating for a while, he continued the chase to the right.
...
Swoosh—
In another cave passage, Colin was moving silently.
After the remaining Energy had been cleared and with the restoration from his Strong Life Talent, his condition improved more and more. By now, he had almost fully recovered.
What he needed to do now was wait, wait for the arrival of reinforcements from outside, then find an opportunity to leave the cave and join forces with them.
Judging by the time, it was almost right. Colin gradually moved upwards.
To avoid making noise, he didn’t break through the rock walls but instead followed the passages, using gravity to guide him slowly upwards.
He hoped the reinforcements had arrived. The contamination in the cave could interfere with most detection and communication witchcraft, and the deeper it was, the more this was the case.
After a while, Colin gradually began to sense the presence of the Ice Element from outside the cave.
Clearly, he was not far from the surface.
Boom!!
But just then, the rock wall beside him suddenly shattered. Colin was startled and, without a second thought, mustered all his strength and shot upward!
"At last, I have found you..."
Calvin did not hesitate, and as soon as he appeared, he went for the kill!
Swoosh!
The splendid translucent light silently appeared in front of him, ready to strike.
But in the next instant, another mineral emitting blue light flew towards him.
Calvin’s expression shifted slightly—Colin’s reaction was surprisingly quick!
Boom!!
The explosion occurred before the Soul-devouring Light could form!
This time Calvin had intended to finish Colin once and for all by exerting his full strength. Ironically, this caused the attack to take a moment longer to form!
