Chapter 704: Will Descends!

“Swish swish.”

The pliant trees swayed non-stop in the wind. However, out of the blue, two white-robed figures emerged below the big swaying trees.

Despite their pristine white robes, they were barely visible in the dark. Merlin had only “discovered” them using his Mind Power.

This place was quite a distance away from Mandy Castle. Even Merlin did not know how long these figures had been waiting here but it definitely was not a short time.

“You’ve been here since a while ago. Why didn’t you attack before I entered the castle?”

Merlin stared at these two figures. Judging from the aura on their bodies, Merlin easily spotted the fluctuation of divine energy, so he was immediately able to deduce their identities – Divine Believers!

Moreover, the only possible threats from the Church of Light that would challenge Merlin were the Divine Believers.

“Earlier, you were visiting a dying person. God will forgive everyone who is sincere, her soul will return into God’s embrace…”

Merlin shook his head. He had nothing to say to these zealots.

“Swish.”

Merlin’s figure flashed and appeared right before the two Divine Believers. With an outstretched hand, wisps of Magic Power began to gather. Then, like a large net, it flew toward the two men.

These two Divine Believers also seemed prepared. A pure white holy light appeared around the bodies. Then, like a sharpened arrow, it pierced through Merlin’s Magic Power net.

“Oh? Not bad, you’re much stronger than Bonnet.”

There was a hint of surprise on Merlin’s face. These two Divine Believers were noticeably stronger than Bonnet back in Imperial City. They were almost comparable to a three- or four-Maxim Great Legend.

Obviously, through some unknown methods, the Lord God of Light had enhanced the powers of these two men. However, such a forced enhancement also came with a steep price of their lives.

“Your powers have been greatly enhanced but it has exceeded your body’s physical limitations. Although you may be very powerful now, it’s consuming your life force every single moment. This, even the God of Light cannot undo!”

Merlin sneered as he told them slowly.

“Death is but returning into God’s embrace. We’re not afraid!”

The two Divine Believers were completely unshaken. On the contrary, the holy light on their bodies grew even more intense.

“Hmph!”

Merlin snorted with derision. These zealots were simply a bunch of lunatics. This was also the gods’ danger. As long as the believers worshipped the gods, they were willing to submit their mind and body to them. Ironically, this was quite similar to the Illusory Heart realm, out of the three main realms of Hallucinating spell that Titus had conceived. However, the Illusory Heart realm forcibly controlled an opponent’s mind, and used it to manipulate his actions. The gods, on the other hand, were very subtle, slowly encouraging their believers to submit their minds to them voluntarily.

Merlin did not plan to show them any more mercy. The elements on his body began to fluctuate wildly.

“Boom.”

Behind Merlin, a huge multi-colored Wizard Heart appeared, whipping up a massive gale. At the same time, the surrounding elements seemed to be ignited by Merlin and turned incredibly vicious. Most importantly, they were all controlled by Merlin.

An invisible pressure pressed against the bodies of these two Divine Believers.

This was the first time Merlin revealed his multi-colored Wizard Heart to anyone. It was probably the most powerful Wizard Heart among all the Spell Casters. No one could compare to Merlin’s Wizard Heart.

“Fire!”

Merlin pointed a finger. Instantly, Fire Elements fluctuated violently and transformed the surroundings into a sea of fire. The flames blazed so intensely that even the holy light was about to be burnt.

Based on Merlin’s current understanding of fire, he was not in any way inferior to the Great Legends who had consolidated a Maxim. It was only inferior to an ultimate Maxim.

Added with Merlin’s might of multi-colored Wizard Heart, naturally, he was able to suppress these two Divine Believers.

Faced with Merlin’s formidable powers, the two Divine Believers also unleashed their full strength. Layers of cloud-like holy light wrapped around them tightly, resisting the power of Merlin’s flames.

After some time, the faith of the two Divine Believers seemed to become more fixated and devout. Correspondingly, their powers seemed to grow stronger. Even Merlin’s Wizard Heart and flames were almost unable to suppress them.

“Light? Light will eventually dim. Since you claim to be the power of light, maybe you should taste Darkness for once.”

With a slight vibration from Merlin’s multi-colored Wizard Heart, the endless flames receded quickly. Soon, concentrated Darkness Elements amid the night sky became unusually active.

“Hoo…”

Darkness descended like a black fog. Despite the dark surroundings to begin with, the emergence of this black fog blocked out every particle of light. Even Mind Power was unable to penetrate it.

Merlin’s Darkness spell was wielded by his Wizard Heart. Additionally, nighttime was when Darkness Elements were at their peak. Thus, once wielded, the effect and power of the spell were further enhanced.

In an instant, the dazzling holy light was completely covered by darkness. The two Divine Believers also paled. The holy light on their bodies was unable to penetrate this thick blanket of Darkness Elements.

“Go.”

Besides the blanket of Darkness Elements, Merlin had also hidden an Ice-type spell in his Darkness-type spell. The Ice Elements slowly crept onto the bodies of the two Divine Believers, almost freezing their holy light.

This was the wonder of the Wizard Heart. Since all his spells had been combined, the spells complemented each other, and switching between spells became completely instinctive. Furthermore, there would not be any clashes between spells.

“Crack.,”

Layers of ice crystal spread rapidly toward the two Divine Believers. At Merlin’s current level of abilities, if he were to challenge these two greatly enhanced Divine Believers before fusing the Darkness-type Wizard Heart, it would be very difficult. Perhaps, he might even be in a disadvantaged situation.

However, now that he had combined all his Wizard Hearts into one, and consolidated the multi-colored Wizard Heart, he was a full-fledged Great Wizard. Merlin’s abilities were only second to the Great Legends. He was not at all inferior compared to his teacher, Legend Zado!

Therefore, these two Divine Believers were obviously not comparable opponents. They were completely defenseless.

“O’ Almighty God of Light, your most devout believer prays that you bestow an even more powerful strength!”

Suddenly, the two Divine Believed wrapped in darkness began to chant. At the same time, Merlin’s Mind Power could clearly see that one of the Divine Believers was looking zealously devout, and then, the holy light on his body began to burn quickly.

At the same time, a terrifying power was brewing as if it would explode at any time.

“Boom.”

The holy light exploded and pierced through Merlin’s Darkness spell. One of the Divine Believers sacrificed his life to temporarily break through Merlin’s binding spell.

“How is this useful?”

Merlin looked at the dead Divine Believer. Despite sacrificing his life, it would not change the outcome of this fight. There was only one Divine Believer left now, so it would be impossible for him to escape.

“Hum”.

At this exact moment, the entire space around them seemed to quiver slightly. An unbelievable burst of power seemed to burst forth from a faraway place.

“This… This opens part of the seal?”

Merlin’s face shifted drastically. He finally understood that Divine Believer sacrificed his life not only to break through Merlin’s binding spell but more importantly, to break the seal placed on the Glorious Land by the three Great Ultimate Arcane Wizards.

After all, this seal was placed on the outside. Therefore, it was much easier to destroy the seal of the three Great Ultimate Arcane Wizards from inside the Glorious Land. Thus, simply by detonating a most powerful force, it was possible to crack open the seal on the Glorious Land for a short time.

Leveraging on this tiny crack, the Lord God of Light aimed directly at the other Divine Believer. Each Divine Believer was like a set of coordinates, and could be easily located by the Lord God of Light.

A chilling aura emanated from the last Divine Believer. His power was increasing continuously. Merlin could sense that this Divine Believer’s life force was draining away quickly.

However, compared to the loss of life force, Merlin was more concerned about the loss of will in this Divine Believer. Fortunately, the Divine Believer’s aura did not increase endlessly. Just as he was about the same level as a middle rank god, the seal of the three Great Ultimate Arcane Wizards closed again.

In such a short time that the seal was broken, the Lord God of Light grasped the opportunity to transmit his power into the Glorious Land. So, he must have been prepared.

His aim was to kill Merlin!

“Truly a foolish and insane zealot!”

Merlin shook his head helplessly. There was nothing he had left to say to such zealots. The only way was to kill them all!

“No, how could you call the zealots foolish and insane? They are my most devout believers, willing to submit their everything to me. Allowing me to descend onto their bodies is their greatest honor!”

This manner of speech no longer belonged to the Divine Believer!

“The Lord God of Light?”

Merlin’s expression sunk. Even he did not expect the worst-case scenario to be possible. The Lord God of Light had managed to use such a tactic to forcefully descend onto the Glorious Land.

Of course, this was only a fragment of his will that occupied the Divine Believer’s body. As a result, even though the divine energy possessed by this Divine Believer had not reached the level of a middle rank god, with the descend of the Lord God of Light’s will, he became comparable to a middle rank god.

It was not surprising that Merlin had sensed a peculiar aura from this Divine Believer. It turned out that he was harboring the Lord God of Light’s will to descend onto the Glorious Land.

“That’s right. The Glorious Land is indeed wondrous, to be able to give birth to such a powerful Spell Caster as you!”

Up to now, the Lord God of Light thought that Merlin was born in the Glorious Land. In reality, Merlin was indeed a Spell Caster from the Glorious Land but due to a series of fortunate events, ended up in the Void Zone, and later returned to the Glorious Land.

Sensing the mightiness of the Lord God of Light’s will avatar, Merlin knew that he was in trouble!
