Wizard: Stronger through Marriage

Chapter 786: Chapter 348: Breakthrough, Sixth Ring Spiritual Power!

A terrifying figure loomed dimly, relentlessly pursuing him, manifesting the fear of failure buried deep in his heart.

He couldn’t stop the shadow from approaching; it tore at his conviction like a sharp blade, leaving him feeling utterly embarrassed!

“Is this the fear in my heart?” David’s face remained calm as he stepped forward.

However, no matter how he tried to escape, the shadow stayed close behind. In his ears, he heard what seemed like countless victims’ anguished cries: “Give up, you’ll never succeed!”

Just as despair was about to swallow him, he abruptly stopped and turned around to confront the Dark Forces head-on.

“If surrendering means losing more, then let me face this reality! I am David; I shall not retreat again!”

In the moment his determination erupted, he began concentrating, releasing all the beliefs accumulated through hardships.

Subsequently, he slowly ventured onto another path from the fear in the darkness.

As his fighting spirit clashed directly with the shadow, that frightening presence shuddered, then struggled back into a weakened state, permeated by dazzlingly flickering colors.

At the moment of David’s determined outburst, the surrounding darkness seemed to be torn apart, while the flickering radiance gradually dispersed the oppressive atmosphere.

Yet, just as he thought he was about to overcome his inner fears.

The shadow seemed to receive a summons, instantly reforming into a larger and more terrifying form.

Fear Demon King!

“Do you think you can escape this?” The Demon King’s deep, hoarse voice, as if from the depths of Hell, shook David’s heart.

Its gruesome and distorted humanoid figure slowly emerged, with its fiery red eyes burning with hatred and despair, sending chills down one’s spine.

“You embody all my fears and failures; you cannot escape me!” the Demon King continued to roar.

It seemed to mock David’s defiance: “I will devour your beliefs, leaving you mired in endless darkness!”

David felt a huge weight pressing on his heart, but he understood this was everything he faced.

Taking a deep breath, he gathered all the emotions together, drawing strength from all the setbacks and pains he had endured to fight against this formidable being.

“I am David; who do you think you are!” he responded loudly, feeling the Bloodline Power surging within him.

He began gathering Magic Energy, wrapping his determination around himself.

The Spiritual Qi in the surrounding air also seemed to tremble and flow with his unwavering will.

“Hmph, kid, you’re just deceiving yourself.”

The Fear Demon King sneered, extending a gigantic hand towards David, a dark hand coalesced, seemingly about to engulf all light.

But David did not flinch; he suddenly stepped forward, converting the gathered energy into a dazzling light.

“I will break through it all!”

With his shout echoing, the light streaked towards the Demon King like a meteor across the night sky.

A powerful collision erupted between the two, booming like thunder, deafening!

Light and darkness intertwined, tore, engaging in an intense struggle within the space.

Despite the formidable presence ahead, David knew he must fight.

He continuously infused his beliefs, hopes, and his strong desire for victory into the light, compelling the Fear Demon King to retreat step by step.

“I never expected to gain the attention of such a presence.”

David took a deep breath, a look of surprise appearing on his face.

The power of the Fear Demon King matched that of ancient Divine Spirits, undoubtedly surpassing Seven Rings.

This time, it was just a thought of the Fear Demon King, yet it made him, a Sixth-Ring Mage, feel terrifying oppression.

The phantom of the Fear Demon King twisted slightly before him, seemingly enjoying the moment of panic and defeat.

Its eyes burning with red light emitted endless despair and mockery, “Your understanding of yourself is indeed superficial, young Wizard.”

“How did you rise from the darkness in legends?”

David asked calmly, knowing he could not allow his emotions to fluctuate at this moment.

“Me? I am the source of all fear and despair.” the Fear Demon King snorted softly, its voice as piercing as icy wind.

“Throughout history, countless souls have been my offerings. Whenever humans felt fear, confusion, helplessness, I would grow from the shadows in their hearts. The more you fear, the stronger I become.”

David was shocked, realizing this entity was not merely a force but a manifestation of dark emotions.

He thought of those historical legends: kingdoms destroyed because of it, heroes losing hope at its emergence—records buried deep in the rivers of history all devoured by this terrifying existence.

“You are correct,” David said slowly, “But I am not afraid. For this reason, I stand here, no longer allowing you to influence others!”

“Hah, do you think you can break my shackles?” the Fear Demon King sneered viciously: “Even if your will is as strong as steel, those long-buried fears and failures will emerge when I appear. I can see through every inch of your vulnerability, no matter how you struggle, you cannot escape!”

David gritted his teeth, knowing this was exactly what he must face.

“Your power stems from our inner uncertainties about the unknown and failure, but simultaneously, we possess hope and courage! These are things you cannot destroy!”

David responded loudly, while clenching his fists, a strong intent started surging.

With his shout, a surge of golden radiance burst from his body, gradually dispelling the surrounding gloom.

The radiance symbolized the hope collectively borne by all the brave, the strongest weapon against dark forces!

Seeing this, the Fear Demon King was evidently enraged, its grim and twisted human figure twisted more violently.

“Foolish boy! This is your fate!” it roared, intending to devour David invisibly!

At this moment, a wave of chilling yet warm air enveloped them, promptly generating a fierce conflict.

As this battle escalated, they had to engage in a deeper and more complex struggle, not just a physical contest of strength.

“You cannot influence me; I have my friends, my mission, and my future!”

David stared unflinchingly at the giant shadow before him, deciding not to evade anymore and to confront the depths of his heart.

With each shout and each impact, the energy transformed from past pain continued to intensify.

Every time the powerful radiance struck the Fear Demon King, astonishment and rage appeared on its twisted human face: “No! This is impossible!”

Finally, after the last collision, a scorching, dazzling white flame thoroughly enveloped the evil presence.

Flames surged like a tide, relentlessly eroding every inch of darkness on it.

“This is my resolve, I will break through it all!”

With the last roar, the invisible shackles completely shattered at this moment.

And that suffocating, massive figure was finally engulfed by the surging light, leaving no trace!

When a final tranquility descended, the earth regained vitality, the distant mist dissipated, and as sunlight poured down, a warmth filled the entire space.

The liberated aura restored the land to peace, allowing heroes to feel an unprecedented force of rebirth!

This battle of self-confrontation enabled David not only to overcome external threats but also completed a spiritual baptism.

In this instant, David suddenly realized his Spiritual Power had advanced.

The Spiritual Power, which could never break through, indeed surpassed to the Sixth Ring at this moment, making him officially enter the realm of a Sixth-Ring Mage!
