Wizard: Stronger through Marriage Chapter 1257 - 584: Wrath of Judgment

"I... will never let you harm Liya!" Reina murmured softly, her voice filled with grief yet unwavering determination, "Even if it costs my life, I shall be the barrier you cannot breach!"

At that moment, the tower’s pinnacle was shrouded in a fantastical scene of stark contrast: intense scarlet holy light continuously clashed against the blue-white spiritual shield, yet the latter stood resilient like a miracle, rendering the entire space as though entwined and torn by the forces of two distinct worlds, yet simultaneously coexisting to craft a new rhythm of battle’s pulse.

Within the protective barrier, Liya, still amidst the breakthrough ceremony, felt the safeguarding energy explode in intensity, enveloping her as if bathing in a torrent of fresh life force transcending material dimensions, each breath growing steadier and more powerful, each pulse seemingly connected to the wider rhythm of the cosmos, elevating her spirit to unprecedented heights!

However, the heavy price for this spectacular and tenacious resistance was extraordinarily grave—Reina felt her body and soul continuously burn and deplete, each cell undergoing disintegration and restructuring, while continually igniting her original clan’s flames meant that maintaining this state inevitably led to total annihilation...

Yet despite this, her face showed no fear or hesitation, only a transformation into the final vow to guard the ally’s belief and will, a steadfast emblem reflected in an unyielding faith in ultimate future victory!

Cynthia witnessed this tragic scene and stood silently for a moment, her face showing indescribable complex emotions—admiration, heartache, and an unwavering resolve to persist under the heavy burden of destiny...

The night was as dark as ink, the top of the Silver Moon Tower filled with a blend of biting chill and fierce light.

Reina stood at the altar’s core, her body radiating a brilliant yet cold glow, an extreme miracle erupting from the fusion of the Fire of Life and the Snow Demon Bloodline power.

She slowly raised her hand, her eyes gathering into a soul flame intertwining deep blue and fiery red, transforming all life essence into specks of starlight gathering around her.

Surrounding her was a vast, pure, and immaculate ice-blue soul barrier—an extreme cold frost cinder barrier.

This barrier emitted a bone-chilling cold, every breath as if formed by glaciers of millions of years, freezing not only time but also blocking the flow of space.

The barrier was like a giant Ice Crystal Shield, completely enveloping the altar’s core area, imposing an overwhelming sense of absolute defense.

Outside the tower, three holy spears forged from pure Holy Light crashed down, each carrying the destructive power bestowed by the Divine.

They were like blades of divine punishment, piercing the extreme cold frost cinder barrier with an irresistible force.

When the first holy spear sharply pierced into that ice-blue spiritual shield, a silent yet earth-shattering explosion instantly blossomed.

The energy shockwave tore through space like a cosmic explosion, countless silver-blue fragments mixed with dazzling platinum sparks flew everywhere, transforming into brilliant yet lethal fireworks in the night sky.

Despite the massive impact, the extreme cold frost cinder barrier miraculously held firm, with Reina pouring her life force into maintaining its integrity, gaining invaluable time for Liya.

However, the cost of this resilience was extraordinarily grave—Reina’s body gradually encased by the intertwining of Holy Light and soul-burning flames, her form becoming transparent and covered with delicate, translucent textures, like a crystal statue sculpted from permafrost, each subtle breath accompanied by tiny fractures flashing, yet the whole remained unbreakable.

Her eyes burned with intense, undying soul flames—this was the unyielding belief stirring from the deepest part of the Snow Demon Race bloodline, a new consciousness forged by life-and-death vows, an indestructible beacon to protect allies, to guard the hope of the future!

At this moment, she became a living yet frozen divine statue in the flow of time, an eternal engraving in the tragic canvas of heaven and earth.

This bizarre state was the legendary "Eternal Freeze," merging the Absolute Cold Seal and the ancient soul-burning forbidden technique, allowing her to briefly solidify all time, space, and energy flows, pinning the three destructive spears temporarily in mid-air, halting their onslaught, unable to advance!

Inside the tower, Liya immersed in this protective strength, felt her spirit filled and purified by the rhythm of the cosmos original source, continuously ascending to a new spiritual height.

In the coexistence of resolve and hope, she steadily completed the remaining ceremony steps, fully integrating the Sixth Ring essence into her consciousness abyss, laying a solid foundation for the future.

Cynthia bit her lip hard, gathering rune fragments among the wreckage of broken barriers, setting up the ancient Magic Array Map again, hoping to use the remaining magic power to delay the enemy’s attack rhythm, giving allies a chance to counterattack.

However, the overt and covert struggle between our side and the enemy had already reached a fever pitch, with every second bearing the critical of life and death!

The sky thundered and lightning crashed, shattered stars fell one after another, yet they could still not stop the endless oppression of the Divine projection, continuously releasing a majestic power attempting to break through the "Eternal Freeze" restriction.

Nonetheless, by this point, this unbreakable barrier forged by Reina’s life and imbued with her race’s ultimate secret held it in place for a moment, stalling the advance!

Time seemed to stand still, yet as if water reversed its flow; the air froze, yet concealed a fierce stir; the tragic fate like a meteor suspended in the sky, demarking a journey indelibly etched into the deepest memory of everyone—
