The Witcher: Start with the Lord Marrying a Wife.

Chapter 374 Continue to practice
Bright Continent, inside the castle.

David has been practicing with Leah continuously.

[Bloodline Source: Six Rings (289458549/10^32)]

After Leah successfully broke through to the sixth ring, her cultivation speed was indeed greatly enhanced.

However, it is still very difficult to break through to the seventh ring directly, and it requires a lot of time.

Of course, for most six-ring wizards, as long as their strength reaches the sixth ring, even a slight improvement in strength requires a lot of time and effort.

David was in no hurry either.

He doesn't have any other threats now, as long as there is hope.

Therefore, in the following period of time, David practiced with Leah while continuing to help the witches improve their strength.

As the witches' strength increases, his training speed will also be faster.

Blood Hell World.

David took Leah to the place where the source of blood was born.

In the next period of time, Leah will conduct research on the source of her bloodline here.

David is also very interested in the origin of the world of Blood Prison and the secrets of the gods hidden behind it.

Deep in the bloody hell world, David and Leah stood on a desolate bloody plain.

The air was filled with a strong bloody smell and the sky was dark red, as if it was dyed red by endless blood.

This is the birthplace of the source of blood and also the core area of ​​the Blood Hell world.

"The energy fluctuations here are very strong."

Liya felt the surrounding atmosphere, and a hint of excitement flashed in her eyes. "The power of the source of blood seems to be more active here."

David nodded, his eyes deep: "The origin of the Blood Prison World is closely related to the origin of blood. If we can unlock the secrets here, perhaps we can find the key to breaking through the seventh ring."

The two walked side by side to the center of the plain, where stood a huge bloody altar.

The altar was engraved with ancient runes, which flashed a faint red light, as if telling some ancient secret.

"These runes..."

Leah approached the altar and carefully examined the patterns on it. "They seem to be related to the origin of the bloodline."

David walked up to her and his eyes fell on the runes: “These runes are the oldest characters in the Blood Prison World, recording the birth and evolution of the source of blood.

If we can decipher them, perhaps we can find a way to increase the power of our bloodline."

Liya nodded, with a gleam of determination in her eyes: "Then let's get started."

In the following days, David and Leah began an in-depth study of the altar runes.

They spend a lot of time every day deciphering runes, trying to find the secret of the origin of their bloodline.

"This rune mentions the 'bloodline core'."

Liya pointed to a piece of text on the altar and frowned. "It seems to be the core power of the source of blood, but the rune does not specify what it is."

David pondered for a moment and whispered, "The blood core...maybe it's a higher level of blood power. If we can find it, we may be able to greatly increase the power of the blood source."

"But the rune doesn't mention how to find the bloodline core." Leah said helplessly.

David smiled slightly, "No hurry, let's take our time. Let's do our daily tasks first. We can't stop here."

In the blink of an eye, several years passed.

While Leah was exploring the Blood Hell world, David and the witches continued to explore the Bright Continent.

During this period of time, Hell did not continue to attack the wizarding world.

It’s just that the passage between the two worlds has been opened, and battles between wizards and demons still occur from time to time.

And in the extreme north of the Continent of Light.

The power of the ice grew stronger day by day, and finally caused a terrifying cold wave.

In order to protect the Bright Continent from the cold wave, David had to take Amy and Lena to stop it.

The far north of the Bright Continent was originally a desolate ice field, covered with ice and snow all year round.

However, in recent years, the ice power here has suddenly become extremely active and even began to spread outward.

The scale of the cold wave grew larger and larger, the frosty breath gradually eroded the surrounding land, and even the magic in the air began to become icy and biting.

David stood at the edge of the Far North, staring ahead with a serious look.

Behind him, Amy and Reina stood side by side, both of them with equally serious expressions.

"The force of the cold wave is stronger than we expected."

Amy whispered, holding a staff that was glowing with blue light in her hand. The staff was inlaid with an ice-blue gem, emitting a faint chill.

"This power...seems to come from another world."

A trace of doubt flashed across Reina's eyes, "Could it be that the power of the Ice Hell has begun to infiltrate the Bright Continent?"

"It's not an icy hell, but an icy world."

David's eyes were deep: "The power of the ice world is indeed gradually coming. If we don't stop it, the entire Bright Continent will be frozen."

The elemental world is the most common type of world.

The wizarding world is connected to several small elemental worlds.

The original Ice Hell used an ice world as a springboard to open the passage to the wizarding world.

Now seeing this impending icy world, he immediately thought of the icy hell.

The Ice Hell itself wanted to invade the Bright World, and he was not sure whether this Ice World would become a springboard for the Ice Hell.

"So what should we do?" Amy asked, with a hint of worry in her tone.

David pondered for a moment, then whispered, "We need to find the source of the cold wave and cut off its connection with the ice world. Only in this way can we stop the spread of the cold wave."

"But where is the source of the cold wave?" Lena asked with a frown.

David cast his gaze towards the depths of the Far North: "The source of the cold wave is in the deepest part of the ice field. There is an ancient frost altar, which seals the power of the ice world. If we can destroy the altar, we can stop the cold wave from coming."

"Then let's act quickly." Amy clenched the staff in her hand, and a hint of determination flashed in her eyes.

David nodded, then took Amy and Lena into the depths of the Far North.

As the three of them went deeper, the temperature around them became lower and lower, and the air was filled with a biting chill.

The ground was covered with a thick layer of ice, and frozen plants and animals could be vaguely seen under the ice. It was dead silent all around, with only the whistling sound of the cold wind.

"The power of ice here... is too strong."

Reina whispered, her body trembling slightly, obviously finding it difficult to bear the chill.

David waved his hand, and a warm energy barrier enveloped the three of them, isolating them from the cold outside. "Hold on, we'll be there soon." David whispered, his eyes fixed on the front.

The closer he got to the center, the more he could feel the original power of the ice world.

This is also the reason why he has been suppressing his own power, fearing that his power will attract the attention of the Origin of the World.

After walking for a long time, the three finally reached the deepest part of the ice field.

There stood a huge frost altar, engraved with ancient runes that glowed with cold blue light.

A huge ice-blue crystal is suspended in the center of the altar, emitting a powerful icy force, and it is this force that triggers the cold wave.

“That’s the source of the cold wave,” David whispered, his eyes serious.

"How do we destroy it?" Amy asked with a hint of confusion in her eyes.

David pondered for a moment, then whispered: "The runes on the altar are the key to sealing the power of the ice world. If we can destroy these runes, we can cut off the connection between the ice world and the bright continent."

"But, the power of these runes is too strong." Reina frowned and said, "How can we destroy them?"

David's eyes flashed with determination: "We need to attack the four corners of the altar at the same time and destroy the structure of the runes. Only in this way can we completely destroy the altar."

"Then let's get started." Amy nodded and tightened the staff in her hand.

David and Lena also stood in the other two corners of the altar, and the three of them began to gather magic power at the same time.

"Ready... start!" David shouted in a low voice.

As he finished speaking, the three of them released powerful magic power at the same time. The magic power turned into three dazzling rays of light and hit the four corners of the altar.

The runes on the altar began to flash violently, and the ice-blue crystals also began to vibrate violently.

"Hold on!" David shouted, beads of sweat oozing from his forehead.

Amy and Reina also gritted their teeth, and the magic power in their bodies continued to surge out, trying to completely destroy the runes on the altar.

However, just as the rune was about to collapse, the ice-blue crystal in the center of the altar suddenly burst out with a powerful icy force, instantly freezing the attacks of the three people.

"Not good!" David's face changed and he shouted hurriedly, "Retreat quickly!"

However, the power of ice was too fast, and the three were frozen in place before they could retreat.

Just when the three were about to be completely frozen, a powerful blood force suddenly burst out from David's body.

The power of blood turned into a blazing flame, instantly melting the surrounding ice.

"David!" Amy and Lena exclaimed with a hint of surprise in their eyes.

David's eyes flashed with determination: "We can't give up!"

He gathered his magic power once again, and the blood power in his body merged with the magic power, transforming into a blazing flame that struck the ice-blue crystal in the center of the altar.

"boom!"

With a loud bang, the ice-blue crystal was finally completely shattered, and the runes on the altar also collapsed.

The icy power gradually dissipated and the surrounding temperature began to rise.

"We... succeeded." Amy let out a long sigh, a tired but satisfied smile on her face.

Reina also nodded, with a hint of relief in her eyes: "The cold wave has finally been stopped."

David's eyes were filled with a hint of complexity: "Although the power of the ice world has been temporarily stopped, its threat has not completely disappeared. We must find a complete solution as soon as possible."

Amy and Reina nodded, a firm look in their eyes.

"We'll face it with you no matter what," Amy whispered.

David smiled slightly, with a hint of warmth in his eyes: "Okay, let's work together."

He stood in front of the ruins of the Frost Altar, gazing deep into the distance.

Although the cold wave was temporarily stopped, he knew that it was only a temporary victory.

The power of the ice world is still stirring and may descend on the bright continent again at any time.

"We must find a complete solution." David whispered with a hint of determination in his tone.

Amy and Reina looked at each other, a hint of worry in their eyes.

"You mean... entering the ice world?" Amy asked with a hint of hesitation in her voice.

David nodded, his eyes firm: "Only by entering the ice world and finding the source of the ice power can this problem be completely solved."

"But the ice world is full of unknown dangers." Reina frowned and said, "We don't even know the rules and power system there."

"I know this is dangerous." David whispered, "But this is our only way. If the power of the Ice World descends again, the Bright Continent will not be able to withstand it."

Amy and Reina were silent for a moment, then nodded at the same time.

In the following days, David, Amy and Lena began to prepare to enter the ice world.

They consulted a large number of ancient books, trying to find clues about the ice world.

However, the ice world is an extremely mysterious existence, and there are very few records about it.

"According to the records in these ancient books, the Ice World is a world composed entirely of frost power." David whispered, "The creatures and power systems there are completely different from ours."

"Then how do we get in?" Amy asked.

David pondered for a moment, then whispered: "The power of the Ice World once descended to the Bright Continent through the Frost Altar. If we can find the remaining power of the altar, perhaps we can open a passage to the Ice World."

"But the altar has been destroyed by us." Lena frowned.

David nodded. "Although the altar has been destroyed, its power has not completely dissipated. We can try to use the remaining power to open a temporary passage."

"Then let's act now." Amy clenched the staff in her hand, with a hint of determination in her eyes.

David and Lena also nodded, and the three of them came to the ruins of the Frost Altar again.

He stood in the center of the altar, slowly raised his hands, and the blood power and magic power in his body merged into a blazing flame.

The flames swirled in the air, gradually forming a complex rune.

"Ready... start!" David shouted in a low voice.

As his words fell, the rune slowly fell and merged with the remaining power of the altar.

A cold energy began to permeate the air, and the temperature around them suddenly dropped.

"The passage is forming!" Amy exclaimed, with a hint of nervousness in her eyes.

David's eyes flashed with a trace of solemnity: "The passage is not stable, I must enter as soon as possible, I will leave this place to you."

Amy and Lena both nodded very seriously and watched David step into the passage.

The moment he entered the passage, David felt a biting chill coming towards him.
