Wizard: Stronger through Marriage

Chapter 422: Chapter 173: Breakthrough, Tier Eight Mage!

In the cabin, the slaves were tightly bound with iron chains, their eyes revealing despair and fear.

They came from different races and regions, forced to leave their homes and become the property of others.

The slave traders were ruthless, only concerned whether the goods reached their destination safely, indifferent to the lives of the slaves.

In such an environment, the slaves’ living conditions were extremely harsh, deprived of the most basic dignity and freedom.

Among those bound by chains was an elf named Ailryan.

Ailryan was once a guardian of the forest, her songs could awaken the sleeping flowers, her dances could make the wind joyously sing.

But now, her songs were replaced by the clinking of chains, her dances restricted by the narrow cabin.

The day Ailryan was captured, she was gathering herbs at the edge of the forest.

Suddenly, a group of fierce slave traders broke into her home, using magic and force to subdue her, then took her and other unfortunate beings onto this slave ship.

Ailryan’s heart was filled with anger and sadness.

She couldn’t understand why there were such cruel beings who would deprive others of freedom and sell them as goods.

In the darkness of the cabin, Ailryan comforted the surrounding slaves who were suffering similarly.

With her gentle voice, she told stories of the forest, hoping to bring a bit of solace to these desperate souls.

Though her body was bound, her spirit remained free.

Ailryan believed that as long as the flame of hope in their hearts didn’t extinguish, someday they would regain their freedom.

The waves on the sea weren’t always calm.

It was on this day.

An unexpected storm broke the tranquility of the slave ship.

In the gale and huge waves, the slave ship began to rock violently, and the array on the ship became unstable under the storm’s impact.

Sten was sitting cross-legged on the deck, sensing the surrounding storm, his gaze focused.

He could feel a gush of magic in the sea, this was definitely not an ordinary storm.

"Activate the defense barrier!" he whispered.

Soon, the wizards on the slave ship took action, and a guardian barrier enveloped the ship.

With the barrier’s protection, the wizards on the ship all let out a sigh of relief.

But at the next moment, water tornadoes suddenly rose from the sea surface, sweeping towards the slave ship!

"Enemy attack, enemy attack!" Sten roared.

His figure had already reached the bow, and threw a punch into the air!

A sudden explosion sounded in the air, the surrounding space compressed under the punch!

The entire space trembled.

Then, the approaching water tornado was directly shattered by a punch!

This was the might of the Tier Eight Body Refining Mage.

Although they didn’t gather bloodline like knights, the life energy in their bodies was even purer!

Body Refining Mages were also known as Life Body Refining Mages.

David was hiding at the sea bottom, observing the might of this Tier Eight Body Refining Mage, his gaze slightly focused.

He then took a deep breath, allowing spiritual power to circulate in his body, the liquid spiritual power flowed like living water under his control.

Closing his eyes, he could feel the breath of sea and wind around him, his wind elemental spirit and heart of water element began to resonate, merging with the environment.

He began to activate his power, the wind elemental spirit started to spin under his will, forming whirlwinds one after another.

These whirlwinds stirred the sea water at the bottom, forming even more powerful water tornadoes.

David’s spiritual power precisely controlled each water tornado, creating insurmountable barriers around the slave ship.

Sten felt the pressure from the sea bottom and frowned.

The power of these water tornadoes exceeded his expectations, not only strong but also flexible and unpredictable, seemingly able to anticipate his actions.

Sten started to swing his fists, attempting to shatter these water tornadoes again with pure power.

But David’s control of spiritual power allowed the water tornadoes to swiftly reorganize, continuously consuming Sten’s strength.

His power of wind and water was inexhaustible, while Sten’s physical strength was limited.

David began to increase the output of spiritual power, enhancing the scale and speed of the water tornadoes, which charged like giant beasts at the slave ship.

Sten began to feel strained, each attack needed to consume life energy, while the water tornadoes in the sea seemed endless.

Now the wizards on the slave ship were all stunned.

Even Boss Sten was being overwhelmed, how strong was the opponent?

"The opponent is also an Ocean School Mage with liquid spiritual power," Sten’s expression also turned grim.

The sea was indeed the Ocean Mage’s home ground.

If the wizard ship was shattered, the outcome in the water would definitely not be good.

A trace of irritation flashed in his eyes, he suddenly took out a potion.

It was a potion concocted by alchemists allowing other beings to move like mermaids in the sea.

This was also his reliance for daring to act as a body refining mage in the sea.

After drinking the potion in one gulp, a large blue pattern appeared on his body, exuding a marine aura.

Immediately, Sten’s figure jumped into the water, his body completely integrated with the ocean’s breath.
