Chapter 747: 453 Chapter Divine Will_2
It continued to strengthen!
Colin’s face lit up with joy; the source of Knight Power lay in the body, manifesting in two major aspects — Blood Energy and Will!
By then, the Blood Energy in his body had transformed into Golden Blood Qi, its intensity having greatly increased compared to before.
However, his corresponding Will Power had not made any progress at all, like a man with a broken leg... The Knight Power was clearly in a state of imbalance!
If he could also elevate his Will Power, then this state of imbalance would undoubtedly resolve itself!
Yet moments later, the Divine Blood was exhausted, and the surging state of his will immediately showed signs of decline.
Not only did it fail to continue growing, but it began to decline!
"Divine Blood is still not enough!"
Colin’s eyes flickered, and after pondering for a moment, he gritted his teeth and consumed another drop of Divine Blood!
The rush of Blood Energy also started to circulate spontaneously due to the surging Will Power!
Half an hour later, Colin was astonished to find that the Divine Blood he held was nearly depleted, visibly running out!
But at this moment, his will had not yet completely transformed.
Like a climber about to summit a sheer cliff, although his view was only of steep rock faces, just a few more meters would allow him to conquer the precipice before him and witness the scenery from the summit!
Colin could also feel that he was just a bit away... just a little bit more, and his will would undergo some kind of metamorphosis!
With a swoosh,
Using spiritual power, he drew another drop of Divine Blood, threw his head back, swallowed it, and continued to focus intently.
Five minutes later.
All the Divine Blood in the diamond-shaped Crystal Bottle was depleted.
Colin sat quietly in his place, his surrounding Will so strong that it started to show a distinct outline, and even the sturdy ground of the Silver Chamber began to warp and deform.
Yet, it was still lacking... his Will had not yet completed its transformation...
Feeling his Will beginning to show signs of falling back, Colin abruptly opened his eyes and strode toward the corner.
There, a gray-black Devouring God Ant had finished consuming the last of the worm’s remains, entering a near-death state, its carapace lighting up with a golden glow, seeming about to complete its transformation!
Crack—
Hiss!
Indeed, as Colin approached, the Devouring God Ant twisted its body, shedding its gray-black old shell and emitting a joyful hiss to celebrate its transformation.
Whoosh—!
However, before it could revel in joy for long, the next second, a flash of witchcraft passed.
The last Devouring God Ant was left only with rotting remains and a pool of thick pale-gold liquid.
Moments later, the pale-gold liquid was purified into an almost imperceptible trace.
"This is already the last of the Divine Blood, if it still doesn’t work, then it’s just such luck."
Colin calmly parted his lips and gently inhaled it.
Whoosh!
It indeed was just a trace away.
When he absorbed this last bit of Divine Blood, his will also finally scaled the precipice, reaching the summit!
Colin suddenly breathed a sigh of relief; he could feel that now, even without the replenishment of Divine Blood, his Will would not decline as before.
Moreover, although the Divine Blood was depleted, his Will continued to surge... What?!
Colin’s face suddenly changed.
He could feel his own powerful spiritual power as a Third Rank Wizard also beginning to surge.
And it intertwined with the power of his Will, twirling around... and even, merging together!

A week later.
Outside the city, in the Silver Chamber.
Colin was sitting cross-legged on the central cushion, muttering to himself.
"The soul is not only clear like the body on the outside but also contains a clear ’spiritual network’ on the inside."
"...This is indeed the manifestation of a soul that only an Advanced Third Rank Wizard would possess, and moreover, over the past few days, Magic Power has also been growing rapidly, almost doubling over the week."
"Did I not only advance to a Third Rank Knight but also advance as an Advanced Third Rank Wizard?"
Although he had conjectured this more than once, Colin still found it somewhat incredible.
"No, that’s not right, am I truly a Third Rank Knight now? And an Advanced Third Rank Wizard too, that seems incorrect..."
Ah... headache, on that day, the Will Power sublimated to the end, bizarrely merging with the spiritual power.
Colin shook his head, his mind moved.
An intangible power probed out from his body.
This new power, which he tentatively called Divine Will, was perhaps because it merged from Will Power and spiritual power, perfectly retaining all the advantages of both and even enhancing them.
In terms of witchcraft, Colin’s casting speed was further increased, and his soul hence nourished and strengthened, now capable of casting three spells simultaneously!
The capacity of his Magic Power was also affected, with just a few sessions of meditation resulting in significant enhancement!
In terms of Knight aspects, relying solely on Divine Will, his fastest flying speed was now comparable to that of a regular Advanced Third Rank Flying Witchcraft with even greater agility.
Defensive and offensive power were the same, the force already equivalent to the everyday-used Third Rank Force Field Magic!
And the strength of his body was also fortified as a result.
Regarding Blood Energy, after several days of practice, it too was tempered, not only changing its color to red-gold but also increasing its power!
However, these were not all the benefits brought about by the recent merger of Will and Spirit.
The greater benefit lay in "integration."
Although Blood Energy and Magic Power within Colin’s body showed no signs of merging, their relationship had undergone a qualitative change.
It was as if two strangers who had never met had now intimately spent decades together.
