Wizard: Stronger through Marriage

Chapter 1205: Chapter 558: The Corroding Codex Emerges

Quickly gathering into a larger, more threatening gray-black monster form, sharp claws tore through the air, emitting a piercing scream, and a physical confrontation immediately erupted.

Zelros swung his longsword, confronting the giant shadow monster head-on as it lunged, while Reina focused entirely on controlling the array barrier to protect everyone safely.

These complex runes flickered with a faint glow, constantly repairing and strengthening the energy barrier, buying precious time for action.

Amy quietly stepped close to David, her face showing firm concern: ”Hang in there, you’re not fighting alone.”

She placed her palms on his chest, injecting her warm life magic power within, helping him gradually regain clear consciousness, further solidifying his mental defenses.

At the same time, she softly chanted ancient spells, building a fortress of resilient faith for her teammates to defend against the fear illusion’s assault.

Gradually, the illusory images began to dissolve, leaving only pitch-black remnant clouds drifting in the wind.

What emerged was a more resolute David, eyes burning with fierce fighting spirit.

He withdrew his palm to his chest, shouted loudly to invigorate the morale of all comrades:

”We are the legacy of the Star Pupil Race, the eternal guardians before dawn! We will never bow to this nightmare!”

As his words fell, sharp blue flames erupted from his vertical pupils, burning away all remaining negative energy.

The air remained frozen, the cold wind at the abyssal rift’s edge like invisible blades, slicing everyone’s skin and will.

The dense shadows surged like tides, as the Heart Eaters wove illusions from darkness and negative emotions, trapping David and his companions firmly.

The interweaving of cold and darkness formed a suffocating sea of despair.

Yet, at this critical moment, a dazzling light broke through the haze from the edge of the wilderness, piercing into the silence like the rising dawn sun.

Liya slowly appeared, draped in a silver-white robe, the Seven Rings light magic ”Holy Judgment Crown” glittering with pure, holy light at her fingertips, the brilliance like divine judgment tearing apart the decaying darkness ruthlessly.

”David, hold on!” Her voice was clear yet filled with intimidation, each word seemingly carrying an irresistible command.

She raised the magic staff high, the witchcraft runes slowly rotating, painting a giant sunlight pattern in the air, the power of the ”Holy Judgment Crown” gathering into a scorching, transparent golden crown.

The crown shone with glorious brilliance, as if igniting the entire pale sky of the Far North wilderness.

The world changed color instantly, and all shadows seemed to shrink and retreat before this sacred flame.

Liya walked forward slowly, each step marking radiant golden footprints, as dignified as entering the divine domain.

The Heart Eaters emitted low, fearful howls, the chaotic illusions beginning to twist and shatter, numerous black tentacles burned away by the fierce light, being driven to the edges one by one, yet the largest, most vicious Heart Eater’s main body gradually emerged from the chaos — its massive form was filled with corrosive breath, its entire body covered in inky shadow patterns, baring terrifying fangs like a giant beast, while fiery red flames burned incessantly in its eyes.

David felt the oppressive aura from the main body, a malevolent and unfathomable hatred concentrated in its heart.

He gritted his teeth, the bone armor runes on his body suddenly bloomed with cold-blue flames entwined with chilling flames, forming a strong confrontation with Liya’s golden mana.

Zelros gripped his longsword tightly, his gaze fixed on the enemy’s movements, each breath permeated with the oppressive feeling brought by the Ice Crystal Armor.

He shouted in a deep voice: ”Don’t give it any chance to breathe! Gather all power to attack the main body!”

At this moment, it seemed the earth also injected extra resilient power into the Star Pupil Race warriors, a strong wind howled past, blowing countless snowflakes into scattered silver specks in the air, further amplifying the solemn and resolute atmosphere all around.

Liya raised her magic staff, her fingertips lightly touching the ancient emblem on her neck, a blessing from the ancient divine domain suddenly surged.

”By the power of the Seven Rings, shine upon all realms!” She chanted the spell loudly, her tone resounding with steady strength, each sentence like thunder rolling and stirring the world, ”Holy Judgment Crown! Illuminate all worlds! Cleanse impurity!”

Forming a grand disc-shaped ”crown” rapidly spreading outward from the center, countless golden symbols and intricate totems flickered brilliantly like the stars, interspersed with intense solar flames burning the void.

”Boom——” A roaring sound shook the sky, forming a sharp contrast with the vicious growl inside the rift, as if the justice of the world was colliding head-on with chaotic evil!

The giant Heart Eater’s main body retreated in fear, its huge clawed arms trying to tear apart the approaching golden power, but every touch of the protective ”crown” resulted in a painful howl, and it was swiftly driven and dissipated!

David seized the moment to charge forward, his sword raised, the runes on his bone armor strengthened by the ”Resonance Technique,” resonating with the surrounding energy waves, continuously releasing damage of intertwined ice and fire.

On the battlefield, his peripheral vision caught Reina and Amy assisting with barrier reinforcement, enabling teammates to stabilize output without being disturbed by negative energy.

Time slipped by second by second, the glory of the ”Holy Judgment Crown” growing ever more dazzling, like the dawn will eventually dispel the night, while the warriors, too, were granted divine might, renewing their faith and courage!

Finally, under continuous fierce attacks, the wicked creature’s painful howl neared collapse, parts of its body composed of shadows began to detach and deform.

During the rapid change, its guise was stripped away revealing its true form — a human male wearing the Silver Moon Kingdom bishop’s robe, bearing a cruel smile, with cold, strange red-tinted eyes!
