The Witcher: Start with the Lord Marrying a Wife.

Chapter 346 Entering the Seal
Next time.

David began to explore the entire Blood Shadow Island and organize the research results of the blood wizards.

He must find a way to enter the seal as soon as possible.

Fortunately, he had obtained the seal mark from the witch during this time.

Now, the seal mark combined with the space mark allowed him to gradually find a way to break the seal of Blood Shadow Island.

Moreover, since the last battle, the seal of Blood Shadow Island has been broken, making it easier to open.

David and his team explored the dark corners of Bloodshadow Island. The air was filled with an ancient and mysterious atmosphere.

They walked carefully through the ruins, where traces of the former bloodline wizards could still be vaguely seen.

"We need to find more information about the seal." David said to the team, "No matter what documents or runes they are, as long as they can help us open the seal, we must not let them go."

Over the next few days, they pored over old scrolls, deciphered ancient runes, and attempted to reconstruct the lost information.

The captured blood wizards were gradually attracted and began to provide some important information about the seal and blood power.

David was amazed at how vast and complex this knowledge was.

After some effort, David finally obtained a detailed record of the "blood nucleus".

According to the above records, to open the seal, it is necessary to combine the "seal mark" and "space mark" to release energy fluctuations of a specific frequency in order to break the space barrier.

Finally, after continuous efforts, he successfully opened a hole in the seal.

David thought for a while and decided to explore the mysterious ruins in depth to find more clues.

He made adequate preparations before going in.

David took a deep breath and stood quietly in front of the seal, thinking about the unknown he was about to face.

He knew that once he entered this mysterious space, there would be both danger and opportunity.

In order to increase his chances of survival, he decided to condense a bloodline clone, which would carry his consciousness and help him explore the inside of the seal.

"focus."

He whispered to himself and began to mobilize the blood power in his body.

He slowly stretched his hands forward, and as a low, ancient spell echoed in the air, a red light flashed from his body.

The light gradually condensed into an incarnation that looked almost exactly like him, but with a hint of blur and unreality.

David stared at his clone, which nodded slightly in agreement.

Next, he injected his consciousness into this clone.

In an instant, he felt a wonderful connection, as if he had given a part of himself to this new being.

At this moment, a state of telepathy and induction of each other's emotions and thoughts was formed between him and his clone.

Also acting together at this time were Isabel and a group of dragon wizards, while David himself stayed outside to provide support.

"Go ahead." David muttered to himself, pointing to the seal. "Be careful."

Amidst the flashes of golden-red light, his bloodline clone began to move forward, penetrating the hidden and faint space crack.

The moment entering the seal, a cold wind blew in my face, which was the breath left by wizards from distant times.

The entire space seemed to be shrouded in a shadow, with blurry, distorted and unknown scenes all around.

"This place... is really strange."

The blood clone whispered to himself, but the sound seemed to echo in the empty, endless void.

Although mysterious and weird, David understands that at this moment he must remain calm and look for clues in this unknown area.

He tried to concentrate on sensing any changes in his surroundings, while also carefully analyzing the ancient runes and patterns that emerged in the air.

These runes seemed like fragments from the long river of time, some of them flickered with faint light, while others were so dim that it was almost impossible to see the message they conveyed.

David tried to use magic to detect the information contained in them. The energy fluctuations of these crystals were extremely powerful, and some could even control time and space.

“You have to be careful.”

"Each crystal has its own unique properties, which can potentially trigger all sorts of unexpected problems."

At this moment, a figure that suddenly appeared caught his attention.

Next to an arched entrance, a man in a blood-stained robe and shrouded in shadows loomed.

He looked at everyone quietly, without making any sound, but giving people an invisible pressure.

"Who are you? Why are you here?"

His voice was low and full of majesty, which instantly froze the air at the scene.

David immediately felt the powerful blood wizard aura from this person.

At this moment, a strong tremor suddenly sounded, and the earth seemed to be shaking.

At the same time, low, low-frequency, terrible groans came from the surrounding ancient buildings, like creatures awakening from ancient times.

At the same time, a strong blood light emanated from the blood-robed man's body, and it was obvious that he had activated some kind of power here.

Under the influence of violent vibrations and low groans, the entire ruins seemed to come alive. The ancient runes on the walls began to flicker, emitting a faint and strange light.

There was a sense of urgency in the air and my heart was pounding.

But when he wanted to find the man in the blood robe, he found that the other person had also disappeared.

The appearance of the Blood Robe Man is obviously not simple, and it can be confirmed that this is the enemy.

David saw a door in front of him: "There! It looks like an entrance to a deeper place!"

He no longer hesitated and ran quickly towards the door.

David walked in front, and he could feel the magical atmosphere around him constantly changing.

Suddenly, a roar was heard from the door in front, and a group of blood beasts suddenly rushed out.

David could feel a strong aura of blood wizards from these blood beasts.

Obviously, these were all the bloodline wizards' experimental subjects, and they were released by the bloodline wizards to attack them.

Those deep voices seemed to be approaching them, and every step seemed like a battle with some unknown creature.

Once through that door, they entered a large circular hall.

In the center of the hall is a large, towering altar with exquisite carvings, covered with complex runes and patterns. It looks like the core of an ancient ritual.

The walls were covered with various relics left behind by bloodline wizards during their rituals. Some of them glowed with strange light, while others gave off a chilling aura. "This is their altar!"

Isabel exclaimed, "Legend has it that those who were sealed here by the dark forces might be the blood wizards!"

David's heart was shocked. This undoubtedly meant that they were in a place where the curse and dark forces were intertwined.

He looked up at the altar and found a large crystal ball emitting a gloomy glow floating above it, and some powerful existence seemed to be sealed inside.

He could feel the force was so strong that it almost suffocated him.

"We must be careful," he whispered, "This crystal ball may not contain everything we want to find. It may also be deadly and dangerous."

At this moment, a large number of blood beasts emerged from around the altar.

A group of blurry blood shadows, their figures were as vague as smoke, but their eyes were full of hostility.

This is obviously a group of human souls that have been sealed for a long time but have not yet completely disappeared. They feel angry and uneasy when facing the invaders.

"Leave here! You shouldn't set foot here!" one of the souls roared. He turned into an illusory shape, but revealed a strong aura of instability.

"We are not the enemy! We just want to unravel this."

David tried to communicate with the spirits, but his voice was surrounded by anger and no one responded to him.

He knew that this conversation would require some deeper approach, and as time passed, the deep voice was getting closer.

Isabel suddenly raised her hand, and a blue light shot out from her fingertips, enveloping those illusory souls.

"Please calm down!" she said calmly, "I am not here to be hostile. I want to communicate with you."

Everyone's eyes turned to her, and the ghosts seemed to hesitate for a moment, but some still showed anger and resistance.

"You cannot understand our pain. We have been imprisoned here for thousands of years..."

A ghost answered slowly, and its voice was transmitted through space to everyone's ears, as heartbreaking as an endless sigh.

"If you are willing, we can help you remove this curse."

Isabel continued, her eyes firm and powerful, "I believe you still have a chance to be free!"

At the same time, there was another vibration outside the hall, and the invisible force was approaching.

And those ghosts seemed to have finally realized the importance of the external threat. They retreated one after another, unwilling to face the potential crisis again.

However, one of the more powerful ghosts stopped in his tracks: "If you want to lift our curse, you must complete the ritual, awaken our memories and return them to this place."

"Ritual?" David frowned. "How should it be carried out?"

The ghost pointed his finger at the altar and said, "Gather all the blood power here and unlock the seal on this crystal ball. But please be aware that once you start, you can't stop... Perhaps this will awaken a more evil existence."

Despite the unknown dangers, everyone knows deep down that this is the only way to reveal the truth.

David thought for a moment and nodded slightly.

He wanted to see what would happen after doing this.

"Are you ready?" David looked at his companions.

"This is our choice and we must bear the consequences together!"

Isabel nodded heavily: "For redemption, for the truth, let us go on together!"

As David and his companions got ready, all eyes were on the altar.

The dark crystal ball emitted uneasy fluctuations, as if waiting for their actions.

The air was filled with tension and urgency, as if time had stood still.

“How do we gather our strength?”

David asked, he could feel the oppression from the souls around him, and he also knew that this test was coming.

"I can channel the power of the runes, but I need each of you to inject the power of your bloodline deep within into it."

The powerful ghost replied, she stepped onto a stone slab in front of the altar and began to chant an ancient spell.

Her words echoed like a spell, and the glowing runes in the air gradually lit up.

David and his companions stood around the altar, closing their eyes and concentrating.

He could feel the innate magical power flowing in his body, a unique existence that came from deep in his blood.

"Now, everyone must imagine their powers coming together!"

The powerful ghost continued, "Whether it's fear, hope, anger, or love, these emotions will become part of our strength!"

The entire hall was instantly surrounded by colorful light, and those souls began to hum mysteriously and strangely, resonating with them.

A dazzling beam of light burst out from the crystal ball, locking everyone inside it. The powerful energy spread out in all directions as if to tear apart space, enveloping everyone.

"Stay focused! Don't give up!"

The powerful ghost continued to encourage her team, and she could feel the seal in the crystal ball gradually loosening.

The low sound coming from the outside world began to become more obvious, and at the same time the invisible pressure was getting closer.

At this moment, a huge black shadow emerged from the depths of the hall. It looked like a monster walking out of endless darkness, with eyes as fierce as flames.

"You stupid humans, you shouldn't disturb our peace!" It roared, shaking the entire space like thunder. "I will make you pay for this!"

"This existence... is the part that is sealed here by the curse!"

David was aware of the crisis instantly. He knew that he had to complete the ritual as soon as possible, otherwise this dark existence would awaken completely and release uncontrollable power!

"Hurry! Keep focusing our thoughts! Don't let it disturb us!" he shouted.

The strong and surging magical aura blended in the air, making it even hotter but still rational.

With violent shaking, the crystal ball was finally unsealed. It emitted a dazzling light, making the entire hall as bright as day.

At the same time, it turned into a huge vortex, sucking everything around it into it.

Hidden in the center of the vortex are the memories revealed by those souls - laughter, sadness, despair and hope interwoven into a series of pictures that make people intoxicated.

Just as this powerful force was about to fully awaken, a loud yet painful and sharp roar resounded throughout the venue.

"I'll make you regret this! No matter what you do, I'll take your life!"

The dark existence roared towards the sky, and its body gradually became huge, like a mountain towering into the clouds, and in front of it was a flame leading to the chest of everyone.

Instinctively, they retreated, but it was too late!
