Wizard: Stronger through Marriage

Chapter 488: Chapter 199: Searching for the Mermaid (Part 2)

The witches exchanged encouraging glances with each other, knowing that although they were about to embark on a new journey, they were not alone.

David smiled faintly and began the cultivation with the witches.

On a starlit night, they were gathered on a wide expanse of grassland, surrounding a warm bonfire.

The witches wore various long robes, which shimmered with mysterious light in the glow of the fire.

In their hands, they held various magic staffs and wands, embedded with gems that emitted soft glows with their movements.

Music played, an ancient and mysterious melody that seemed to touch the deepest emotions in people’s hearts.

The witches began to dance, their movements graceful and filled with magic, twirling around the bonfire with their long hair and robes flowing in their dance.

David was surrounded in the center, intimately close with the witches.

As the music’s rhythm gradually quickened, the witches’ movements became more fervent, their mouths continuously chanting.

When the music reached its climax, the witches collectively released strands of magical light, which gathered in the air to form a giant orb and slowly ascended into the night sky, eventually dispersing among the stars.

After the exchange ended, the witches sat around the bonfire, smiling at each other, their eyes shining with anticipation and determination for the future.

David sat on the grass with the witches, looking up at the starry sky, determined to protect these witches no matter how twisting the path ahead might be.

...

In order to leave with peace of mind.

David continued to handle threats on the Bright Continent.

Now his strength had reached the true pinnacle of the Bright Continent.

He vaguely felt that this world seemed to have a kind of restraint that no one could break through.

He felt as if he had reached the ceiling, and to continue breaking through, he indeed had to head to the Wizard World.

After confirming that the Demon Tide seals were still very solid, he journeyed to the Far North.

Precisely because of that mysterious restraint, even though the portal to Ice Hell was opened, powerful demons still could not enter the Bright Continent.

David embarked on the journey to the Far North, aiming to completely resolve the Snow Demon threat there, and then temporarily seal the passage to Ice Hell.

In the Far North, David discovered a mysterious cave covered in ice and snow.

The cave was extraordinarily cold, and even a strong person like David had to mobilize the Ice Elemental Spirit to resist the cold.

He cautiously delved deeper into the cave and eventually found the Snow Demon’s lair.

After a tough battle, David successfully broke through the Snow Demons’ defenses and completely defeated them.

Then, he also set up an Elemental Barrier here, completely sealing the passage to Ice Hell.

Additionally, he left behind his Snow Demon Spirit to watch over this barrier and continuously absorb power from Ice Hell.

For the Bright Continent, the biggest threat still came from the sea.

During this time, various sea beasts in the ocean were also continuously attacking the Bright Continent.

"The Sea Race of the Bright Continent."

"This world truly is a hodgepodge, with creatures of all races."

David’s face showed an odd expression, sensing that this place could very well be an experimental field left behind by the wizards.

"Coincidentally, I am personally interested in the Sea Race."

"Perhaps I could try to first subdue the Sea Race of this world."

"I just wonder if there exists the Mermaid Race in this world."

David stood at the coast, and then he activated the Water Element Mark, leaping into the sea, his figure quickly swallowed by the deep water.

He swam underwater like a bolt of lightning, traversing coral reefs and undersea mountains, searching for traces of the Sea Race.

The Sea Race of the Bright Continent is a mysterious and ancient race, living in the depths of the ocean, with almost no contact with humans.

David knew that finding them was not an easy task.

But now, with the revival of the Demon Tide, the Sea Race had begun to stir, and through the sea beasts, David had discovered some traces of the Sea Race.

David traveled through the deep sea, his Extraordinary Perception capturing every movement around him.

The flow of the sea, the breathing of creatures, and even distant sound wave vibrations could not escape his perception.

At this moment, he felt an unusual fluctuation.

Suddenly, a group of giant sea serpents shot out from the coral reefs.

Their scales shimmered with a cold gleam under the light of the sea bottom, their long bodies flexibly twisting in the water, rushing straight at David.

The sea serpents’ eyes glowed fiercely, their sharp teeth dripping with deadly venom, ready to launch an attack on the intruder.

David’s face was calm; just as the sea serpents were about to strike, he manipulated the seawater to stir into a whirlpool, drawing the sea serpents in.

The serpents struggled in the whirlpool but were soon subdued by David’s power.

But this was just the beginning, more sea creatures began to appear, angered by David’s presence.

Massive octopuses waved their tentacles, crawling out from undersea mountains, their tentacles covered in suckers and sharp spikes, poised to tightly wrap around David.

David called upon the ocean’s power, unleashing waves of shockwaves to repel the octopus tentacles.

Suddenly, a group of sharks appeared in David’s sight, the ocean’s hunters, equipped with sharp teeth and relentless hunting instincts.

The sharks formed a semicircular encirclement, preparing a unified attack on David.

"Hmm?"

"Finally showed up, huh?"

David toyed with these sea beasts, his gaze landing on the octopus people in the distance.

He activated the Beastification Mark within himself, causing intense vibrations, with a powerful energy surging through his body.

As David’s power was gradually unleashed, those originally ferocious sea beasts suddenly halted their attacks.

Their movements became stiff, the fierce glow in their eyes gradually faded, replaced by a sense of confusion.

The octopus people saw this and felt a foreboding rising in their hearts.

As their leader, he had always been able to command them through a special mental link.

But now, he suddenly found his mental link severed by a powerful force; he lost control over these sea beasts.

The octopus leader was filled with shock and fear.

Never had he encountered such a situation, nor imagined someone could so easily strip him of his power.

He tried to re-establish the link, but each attempt was blocked by David’s power.

David stood there, his gaze exuding an irresistible majesty, the sea beasts under his control becoming obedient and submissive.

The octopus leader knew he was facing a formidable adversary.

He began to retreat, trying to escape the place that robbed him of his power.

But David did not grant him this opportunity; he commanded the sea beasts to form a circle, trapping the octopus leader in the center.

The octopus leader felt hopeless, knowing he had no escape route left.

David slowly approached the octopus leader, his voice reverberating through the water: "From now on, these sea beasts will heed my command, and you will also submit to me."

This octopus leader actually possessed considerable power, close to Tier Seven, counted as a strong presence on the continent.

Yet under David’s overwhelming force, he found himself unable to muster any thought of resistance.

The octopus leader’s heart was filled with unprecedented fear, his power on the continent counted him as a strong presence, but before this force, he felt his insignificance.

David’s strength was like an insurmountable mountain, pressing down on him until he could barely breathe.

He watched as the sea beasts that once obeyed him now surrounded David peacefully, filled with a sense of powerlessness.

David’s voice echoed in his ears, each word like a heavy hammer pounding at his heart.

The octopus leader lowered his head, his body beginning to tremble, not from cold, but knowing he was about to lose his freedom and become someone else’s slave.

His heart was filled with unwillingness, but now he had no other choice.

The octopus leader slowly knelt down, his voice carrying a slight tremor: "I...I submit."
