Wizard: Stronger through Marriage

Chapter 1187: Chapter 549: Void-Eating Swarm

David stood silently by the snow pile, looking at the massive stone monument.

The wind from the Far North seemed never to cease, still as sharp as a blade, slicing through every inch of air under the cover of night.

Snowflakes drifted slowly down, landing on the frost-covered ground at the edge of the crevice, as if draping a ghostly cold silver veil over this tortured earth.

Deep within the crevice, those crimson veins still flickered with a sinister and eerie glow, like the undying demonic fire in the eyes of a slumbering giant beast.

David knelt before this subsurface fault, enveloped in an aura of calamity, his whole body burning with ghostly blue flames, which shone like a lighthouse on a Northern Territory winter night, glowing with a steadfast and unyielding brilliance amidst the dense darkness.

He took a deep breath of the fresh air, cold and biting as a knife, his gaze heavy and deep.

The wind sounded like whispers, or perhaps an unsettling, mysterious call from the distant end of ancient time and space.

He slowly extended his right hand, which still bore irregular shallow marks from where temporal fragments had grazed it earlier, a faint layer of blue fluorescent light emerging on the skin.

Fingertips lightly touched the nearby floating, shattered, and rapidly spinning small temporal debris, its sharp edges exuding a biting cold aura, sharp as a predator eyeing its prey.

”We must harness their residual power... to master stronger dimensions.”

David whispered, his voice trembling slightly in the cold wind, but his eyes were determined beyond compare.

He closed his eyes, sinking his consciousness deep into his mind—where the special bloodline of his tribe intertwined with ancient will.

With the surge of the Frost Wolf Bloodline within him, a warm and pure power quickly gathered.

He slowly opened his palm, using the spiritual power woven from soul and flame to envelop the spinning temporal fragment, cautiously absorbing it into his being.

In an instant, a strong dizziness hit his mind like a giant wave, nearly causing him to lose balance, but he gritted his teeth, anchoring his consciousness firmly in reality.

The ghostly blue flames around his body suddenly surged several times in size, burning even more intensely in the cold air, yet with a hint of gentle purity—a contradiction which miraculously fused together.

Gradually, the shattered spatial remnant ingested into his mental core turned into countless tiny streamers, continuously rotating and transforming within him, weaving into intricate, star-like delicate patterns subtly altering the tangible and intangible boundaries of David’s body.

”Basic Dimension Folding...”

His voice was low and full of reverence, ”Able to briefly fold parts of the body into parallel space, unbound by reality, thereby evading attacks... This is the first time I truly comprehend this minor law that crosses spatial boundaries.”

Amidst the howling wind, he opened his eyes, eyes crystalline and clear, carrying the resilient will of a Northern Territory hunter, much like a frost wolf on a rock.

He extended his right arm, then suddenly transformed part of it into a pale blue semi-transparent form—like a vast star river projection, before instantaneously materializing again.

The movements were smooth and fluid, yet carried an unspeakable novelty and flexibility.

”Though this power is ephemeral, it’s sufficient for me to dodge those lethal attacks emanating from the ruptured spatial fault edges.”

He stood up, appearing more robust and upright due to the energy filling him.

”It acts like an invisible shield, not only to ward off harm but also to allow me closer to the contamination source’s core area.”

At this moment, the earth remained in dead silence and chill, endless darkness interwoven with crimson mycelium, like a demon’s web spun from nightmares.

Nonetheless, a ring of fine ripples emanated around David’s body, each subtle movement accompanied by a temporarily but perceptibly detectable spatial distortion, exquisite as if the cosmic star path was projected onto the skin.

”We must hasten our steps,” David clenched his fist, ”Time for us is exceedingly scarce at this moment.”

His lips pursed slightly, allowing no possibility of retreat.

On this land where the frosty winter had frozen the source of life, even when pain assails, one can only bear the mission and press forward with gritted teeth.

Snowflakes once again danced wildly, their chilly threads seeping into the marrow, bringing an ultimate suffocation-like freezing sensation.

Yet compared to facing mental erosion and sharp temporal cuts earlier, this chill seemed much gentler instead.

Snowflakes clung to his shoulders, hair, and the scars gradually exuding a ghostly glow; each inch reflected an indestructible, resilient symbol that stood tall against all odds—life, even scarred, must emit its brightest and most intense radiance!

With newfound understanding in his heart, he stepped further into the depths of the crevice, his steps no longer hesitant, each firm and solid, as if treading on solidified segments of the time axis in crystalline form, allowing the broken and distorted earth to instantaneously acquire a repair-like extension and revival of vitality, the power of hope flooding from within to his limbs and bones!

The whispers continued to echo by his ears, but were no longer able to shake his core will;

Those parasitic spores drifted with the wind, unable anymore to corrode his mental defense edge;

Reina and Amy silently guarded the rear, constructing an eternal barrier with silent vows, severing the incessant spread of the dark invasion source.

This is the team destiny forged by conviction, an unbreakable bond connecting each other’s lives!

Suddenly, a familiar yet long-unheard sharp audio echoed through the void, erupting from the central crevice, as countless tiny suspended particles whirled and danced, forming a magnificent meteor shower-like spectacle under moonlight.
