The Witcher: Start with the Lord Marrying a Wife.

Chapter 407: Training on the Mountain Top
David stared at the cursed elemental rainbow core in his hand.

It was dim at the moment, exuding an unsettling evil aura.

If the curse cannot be lifted in time, the Elemental Rainbow Core will lose its power forever and may even become a dangerous weapon.

"We must find a way to lift the curse." David said in a deep voice.

Lingnai, Huowu, Shuilian and Xi'er all nodded. They knew that the situation was serious and they could not afford to slack off.

David closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and began to mobilize the power of holy light in his body.

The power of holy light is his unique ability, it is pure and powerful, able to dispel darkness and purify evil.

As David silently chanted the spell, a warm and sacred light emanated from his palms, gradually enveloping the entire elemental rainbow core.

This light is like the rising sun, full of vitality and hope.

Under the illumination of the holy light, the evil aura on the surface of the elemental rainbow core began to gradually dissipate. It became less dim and began to flicker with a faint light.

David continued to increase the output of holy light. Beads of sweat had already appeared on his forehead, but he didn't care.

He knew that every minute and every second of this moment was crucial.

Finally, with David's unremitting efforts, the evil aura on the surface of the elemental rainbow core was completely dispelled, and it restored its original dazzling brilliance.

That light contained the essence and mystery of the four elements, as if it could gather and balance all forces.

"Success!" David breathed a sigh of relief.

He carefully handed the Elemental Rainbow Core to Reina and asked her to keep this precious treasure.

Reina took the elemental rainbow core, her eyes sparkling with excitement.

The Shadow King, who was lying on the ground, witnessed this scene with despair and disbelief in his eyes.

He never expected that the curse he had carefully laid out could be broken so easily.

"This...how is this possible..." the Shadow King muttered to himself.

His voice was full of trembling and unwillingness.

David walked up to the Shadow King and said in a calm and majestic voice: "Although your power is strong, you are not invincible. In this world, there are always some forces that can restrain you."

The Shadow King looked up at David, a complex emotion flashing in his eyes.

He seemed to want to say something, but in the end he just lowered his head weakly.

David ignored the Shadow King and turned to Lingnai, Huowu, Shuilian and Xi'er and said, "Let's go. There are more challenges waiting for us."

The four nodded and followed David out of the ruins.

The road ahead is still full of unknowns and dangers, but they also believe that as long as they unite as one, there will be no difficulties that cannot be overcome.

On the way out of the ruins, David told the four more secrets about the elemental rainbow core.

It turns out that the elemental rainbow core is not only a symbol of power, but also a bridge connecting the four elemental worlds.

As they explore further, the surrounding environment begins to become more bizarre and challenging.

They traveled through an ever-changing world of light, shadow and color, and faced the test of various mechanisms and traps.

But no matter what difficulties they encounter, they can unite as one, cooperate with each other and overcome them together.

During one exploration, they accidentally discovered an ancient village hidden deep in the forest.

The village is protected by a mysterious barrier, making it difficult for outsiders to enter.

But as they approached, the barrier miraculously disappeared.

They walked into the village and found that the people here had a special ability to live in harmony with nature.

They can talk to the wind, dance with fire, play with water, and blend with the earth.

This ability allows them to thrive on this land and live a quiet and peaceful life.

The village elders received them warmly and told them more secrets about the elemental rainbow core.

It turns out that the elemental rainbow core not only connects the four elemental worlds, but is also closely related to the balance and harmony of this world.

After resting in the village for a while, they continued their journey.

As time goes by, their power continues to grow and become stronger.

They began to understand and use the power of elements more deeply, integrating the power of the four elements and continuously improving their strength.

This power contains the essence and mystery of the four elements and can burst out with amazing power.

With the blessing of the power of ether, their strength has been greatly enhanced, and they have become more at ease in facing various difficulties and challenges.

After leaving the ancient village, David and four witches - Lingnai, Huowu, Shuilian and Xi'er - embarked on a journey to find the dusty "Elemental Obelisk".

According to the guidance of the village elders, the elemental rainbow core will lead them to find the location of the obelisk, which is the core connecting the four elemental worlds and the key to maintaining the balance of the world.

Their journey was full of unknowns and challenges, but more of it was warmth and intimate interactions, and these daily moments became their most precious memories.

One morning, when the first ray of sunlight penetrated the mist and shone into the winding valley, they set out on their journey through the valley.

In the valley, birds are singing and flowers are fragrant, everything seems so peaceful and beautiful.

David walked in front, holding the elemental rainbow core, carefully sensing the faint guidance it emitted.

Reina followed closely behind, her long hair fluttering in the wind, like an elf in the forest.

Huo Wu and Shui Lian walked side by side, sometimes talking in low voices, sometimes laughing happily.

Hill walked at the end, his eyes scanning the surroundings vigilantly to ensure everyone's safety.

On the way, they came across a meadow full of wild flowers.

Reina ran excitedly into the flowers, gently stroking the delicate petals, with a happy smile on her face.

"Look, how beautiful these flowers are!" she turned around and shouted to everyone.

Huo Wu and Shui Lian also came over. They played and fought among the flowers with Ling Na, as if they had returned to their carefree childhood.

Hill looked at them with a smile, his heart filled with warmth.

David joined them, gently picking a flower and pinning it behind Reina's ear.

"You're so beautiful," he whispered.

Reina's cheeks flushed instantly and she lowered her head shyly.

They enjoyed the tranquility and beauty, forgetting the fatigue and danger of the journey.

After crossing the valley, they came to a wide river.

The river was rushing and the waves were rough, and it looked very dangerous.

But the guidance of the elemental rainbow core clearly told them that they must pass this river to move forward.

Faced with such challenges, they did not back down.

Huo Wu was the first to step forward. She summoned a fire shield and prepared to rush into the river.

They decided to use their elemental powers to cross the river together. Shui Lian manipulated the water flow to form a stable bridge, allowing everyone to walk safely to the other side.

Hill summoned earth and rocks to form a solid support under the bridge to prevent it from being washed away by the river.

In the process of crossing the bridge, they supported each other and faced difficulties together.

David held Reina's hand tightly, giving her strength and courage.

Huo Wu and Shui Lian were chatting while crossing the bridge, distracting each other.

Hill walked at the end, always ready to deal with any emergencies that might arise.

After several days of trekking, they finally reached the top of a towering mountain.

On the top of the mountain, the starry sky is so bright that it seems within reach.

They found a flat place to sit down and looked up at the vast starry sky.

"It's so beautiful!" Lingna exclaimed, "I have never seen such a beautiful starry sky."

“Yeah,” David agreed, “This is just like our journey, full of unknowns and miracles.”

They sat quietly, enjoying the tranquility and beauty.

Under the starry sky on the top of the mountain, David, Si Lingna, Huo Wu, Shui Lian and Xi'er conducted a special training to strengthen the tacit understanding and connection between them.

The first to start was the combination of David and Reina.

The moonlight was like water, gently sprinkling on them, adding a bit of romance and mystery to this practice.

They chose a relatively simple yet challenging pose - "Tree Pose".

David stood firmly, with his feet together, his hands clasped in front of his chest, closed his eyes, and adjusted his breathing.

Reina gently lifted her right foot and placed it on the inside of David's left thigh, then she put her arms around David's waist and rested her head on his shoulder.

Following David's guidance, they began to take slow, deep breaths, feeling the blending of each other's breath.

In this position, Reina felt David's firmness and stability, like a big tree, giving her endless sense of security.

David could feel Reina's softness and dependence, which made him want to protect her.

Their heartbeats gradually synchronized, as if they had become one.

As their practice progressed, they began to try more complex postures - the "King of Dance".

David bent over and supported himself with his hands on the ground, while Reina stood behind him, her arms around his waist, one leg bent backwards with her toes touching David's head.

This posture requires a high level of tacit understanding and trust, but for them, it seems so natural and harmonious.

Under the moonlight, their figures are intertwined, like a moving painting.

Every breath and every movement is filled with love and warmth.

Next up is the combination of David and Huo Wu.

Huo Wu is known for her fiery personality and powerful fire powers, which contrasts sharply with David's power of Holy Light.

They chose a pose full of power and passion - "Warrior II".

David stood in front, his feet about shoulder-width apart, his hands raised to his sides, his eyes determined.

Huo Wu stood a little further behind him, with her feet also shoulder-width apart and her fists clenched at her waist, ready to unleash the power of fire at any time.

Following David's order, they took a deep breath at the same time, then took a step forward and leaned forward as if to break through all obstacles.

Huo Wu's fire power reached its peak at this moment. A raging flame burned between her hands, reflecting David's holy light power.

In this posture, David felt the passion and tenacity of the fire dance, like a flame that would never go out, burning his heart.

And Huo Wu can feel David's determination and courage, which makes her unleash her power even more fearlessly.

Their heartbeats were as powerful as drumbeats, and together they played a passionate melody.

After the training, they smiled at each other, each other's figures flashing in their eyes.

Without words, they already understood each other deeply.

*Next came David and Shui Lian. Shui Lian was known for her gentle personality and powerful ability to control water, which perfectly complemented David's power of holy light.

They chose a pose full of tenderness and fluidity - the "boat pose".

They sit facing each other with their legs straight and together, their upper bodies leaning back and their hands grasping each other's ankles, forming a boat-like shape.

In this position, they need to maintain body balance and stability while feeling each other's breathing and heartbeat.

As their practice progressed, they began to try a more difficult posture - the "Crane Zen Pose".

David supported himself with his hands, leaned forward, and lifted his legs off the ground, while Shui Lian stood on his back, with her arms around his neck and her legs wrapped around his waist.

This posture requires a high level of balance and trust, but it seems so easy and natural to them.

During the practice, the water lotus seemed to transform into a clear spring, gently nourishing David's heart.

David is like a solid mountain, providing Shui Lian with the most solid support.

Their breathing gradually became synchronized and their heartbeats became one.

When the practice was over, they hugged each other tightly, as if they didn't want to be separated forever.

Finally, there is the combination of David and Hill.

Hill is respected for his calm, steady character and powerful ability to manipulate earth and rock, making him a perfect match for David's power of the Light.

They chose a posture full of power and calmness - "Mountain Pose".

They stood side by side, their feet together, their hands clasped in front of their chests, and their eyes looked firmly into the distance.

In this position, they need to feel each other's strength and stability and jointly resist the wind and rain of the outside world.

As their practice progressed, they began to try more challenging poses - "Tree Pose Variations".

David stood in front, standing on one leg, with the other leg bent and raised backwards, while Hill stood behind him, put his arms around his waist and placed the raised leg on his shoulder.

This posture requires a high level of balance and trust, but it seems so easy for them.

During the practice, Hill seemed to have turned into a steady mountain, providing David with the most solid support.

And David is like a ray of warm sunshine, illuminating Hill's way forward.

Their breathing gradually became steady and deep, as if resonating with the earth.

When the practice was over, they smiled at each other.

After the training, they sat on the top of the mountain and looked up at the bright starry sky.

Under the witness of the starry sky, they made an eternal vow.

At this moment, their hearts were closely connected, as if they had become an inseparable whole.
