The Witcher: Start with the Lord Marrying a Wife.

Chapter 463 Time Frost Forbidden Spell
The surrounding scenery, the atmosphere, and their own condition were exactly the same as before.

It was as if time had been reset, and everything had returned to the starting point.

"What's going on?" Lia exclaimed, looking around in disbelief.

“It’s Kael’thas’s Reverse Hourglass,” David said in a deep voice, recalling the records of this treasure in ancient texts.

"It can reset the time loop within a certain range, making us unable to move forward forever."

Amy and Lena also looked serious; they knew they were in real trouble this time.

The time loop means that they return to the starting point every time they die, making it impossible to accumulate experience and advantages, which undoubtedly increases the difficulty of obtaining Frost Tear.

However, David and his three companions did not give up.

They began to carefully observe and analyze the pattern of this time loop, trying to find a way to break it.

After numerous attempts and failures, they finally discovered a subtle flaw—Kael'thas would have a brief pre-casting animation at the start of each cycle.

“If we can interrupt his spellcasting at this moment, we might be able to break the time loop!” A determined glint flashed in David’s eyes.

So the four of them began to make a plan.

They decided to divide the work: Lena would draw Kael'thas's attention, while David, Amy, and Lia would look for an opportunity to launch a surprise attack.

The plan was put into action. Rena used the Snow Fairy Breathing Technique to freeze the flow of time in a localized area, slowing down Kael'thas's movements.

David seized the opportunity, brandishing his longsword and charging toward Kael'thas, attempting to interrupt his spellcasting.

However, Kael'thas was, after all, a powerful time lich, and his reaction speed was extremely fast.

Just as David was about to reach him, he suddenly swung his staff, and a wave of time ripple spread out from the tip of the staff, sending David flying.

David fell heavily to the ground, spitting out a mouthful of blood.

But he did not give up. Instead, he struggled to his feet and prepared to launch another attack.

Just then, Amy and Lia joined the battle.

They used their respective skills and weapons to launch a fierce offensive against Kael'thas.

In an instant, sword light, magic, and the power of frost intertwined, creating a spectacular battle scene.

After a fierce battle, David and his companions finally found Kael'thas's weakness.

Using Rena's ability to freeze time and David's agility, they successfully interrupted Kael'thas the instant he was preparing to cast a spell.

With a flash of dazzling light, the magic effect of the [Reverse Hourglass] was successfully interrupted, and the time loop was finally broken.

Kael'thas was shocked to see this; he hadn't expected that these four seemingly ordinary explorers could break his time loop magic.

He roared and brandished his staff, launching an even fiercer attack on the four.

However, David and his companions were no longer the same people they had been before.

They have become more resilient and stronger through the trials and tribulations of time.

They used their respective skills and weapons to engage in fierce combat with Kael'thas.

After a fierce battle, they finally defeated Kael'thas and seized the Frost Codex from him.

This codex is the key to the Frosttears and a treasure that Kael'thas has always guarded.

As they opened the Frost Codex, a powerful force of frost surged forth and instantly filled the entire secret realm.

This power is pure and strong, seemingly containing endless mysteries and wisdom.

However, at that moment, an unexpected situation occurred.

A powerful forbidden spell suddenly surged from the Frost Codex, enveloping Amy completely.

This power is the ancient ice-type forbidden spell, "The Lament of the End." It possesses the power to destroy everything, and even gods would find it difficult to resist.

Amy felt an unbearable pain surge from the depths of her soul, and her body began to gradually become cold and stiff.

Her eyes were filled with despair and fear, as if she could see her own impending doom.

"No!" David cried out. He couldn't accept that Amy had died right before his eyes.

He quickly used the Divine Resonance spell to connect his bloodline with Amy's, attempting to share the pain she was enduring.

However, this forbidden spell was far too powerful, and even David's Divine Resonance Technique could not completely resist it.

He felt a chilling force surge from Amy's body into his bloodstream, instantly freezing his blood and soul.

David's body began to gradually crystallize; his skin, muscles, and bones were covered with a thick layer of ice crystals.

He felt his consciousness beginning to blur, as if he might fall into an eternal slumber at any moment.

But David did not give up; he resisted the power of the forbidden curse with his tenacious will and unwavering faith.

He knew he couldn't just give up like this, or Amy and the entire team would be in dire straits.

Just then, Lia and Rena also sprang into action.

They used their skills and magic to provide support and healing to David and Amy.

Lia released a warm light in an attempt to melt the ice crystals inside David's body;
Lena used the Snow Demon Breathing Technique to stabilize Amy's soul and prevent her from being completely devoured by the forbidden spell.

With the combined efforts of the three, Amy finally broke free from the shackles of the forbidden spell. She gasped for breath as if she had just escaped from the clutches of death.

The ice crystals inside David's body began to melt gradually, and his consciousness gradually returned to normal.

“I’m fine…” Amy said weakly, her eyes filled with gratitude and tears as she looked at David, Leah, and Rena.

"Thank you...you saved me..."

David looked at Amy with a heart full of relief and emotion.

He knew that the successful rescue of Amy was not only due to the strength and cooperation of their team, but also to the friendship and trust between them.

However, when they opened the Frost Codex again, they discovered an astonishing secret—this codex was not just an ordinary magic book; it also concealed the key to another mysterious realm—the location of the Eternal Ice.

Upon learning this secret, David and his three companions were filled with excitement and anticipation.

They knew that if they found the Eternal Ice, they could completely save the frozen world and Amy's own fate.

In the days that followed, David and his companions continued to explore the Frost Realm.

They traversed countless mazes and traps, experiencing numerous dangers and challenges.

But no matter how great the difficulties and obstacles they encountered, they overcame them one by one with their firm beliefs and outstanding abilities.

After countless efforts and explorations, they finally found the secret passage to the Eternal Ice.

This passage is hidden beneath an ancient glacier and requires solving a series of complex runic puzzles to open.

David and his companions worked together to solve the runic puzzles. With a booming sound, the gate to the passage slowly opened, revealing an entrance to an unknown realm.

The four exchanged a smile, their eyes gleaming with determination, and resolutely stepped into this brand new world...

However, once they entered this world, they discovered that it was not as wonderful as they had imagined.

This is a strange space distorted by time magic, filled with chaos and danger.

They encountered all sorts of time traps and monsters, each encounter plunging them into a life-or-death crisis.

But David and his three companions did not back down; they overcame these difficulties and challenges one by one with their tenacious perseverance and outstanding abilities.

They continued their journey, searching for traces of the eternal ice.

After countless efforts and explorations, they finally found the location of the Eternal Ice.

Inside an ancient, frozen temple was a crystal of ice that shone with dazzling light—the eternal ice they had been searching for.

When they touched the ice crystal, a powerful force surged forth and instantly filled the entire temple.

This power is pure and strong, seemingly containing endless mysteries and wisdom.

They knew this was the sacred relic they had been searching for, and the key to saving the frozen world and Amy's fate.

However, just as they were about to leave, a powerful backlash suddenly surged out from the ice crystals, engulfing all four of them.

This power is the guardian force of the Eternal Ice; it will not allow anyone to easily take this sacred relic away.

David and his three companions are once again facing a life-or-death crisis. They must use all their wisdom and strength to fight against this backlash.

Inside the Eternal Ice Temple, a powerful backlash swept in like a tidal wave, tightly surrounding David, Amy, Lia, and Rena.

This power originates from the protection of the Eternal Ice, ancient and powerful, seemingly intent on utterly destroying anything that attempts to taint the sacred relic.

David and his three companions wore grave expressions, fully aware of the extremely dangerous situation they were in.

If they don't find a way to counteract this backlash soon, they will likely all perish.

“We must find a way to resist this force!” David shouted, his voice echoing throughout the temple, filled with determination and resolve.

Amy, Lia, and Lena nodded in agreement, and they quickly sprang into action, using their respective skills and magic to try and resist the backlash.

However, this force was so powerful that their efforts seemed like a drop in the ocean.

David was extremely anxious as he looked at the predicament before him.

He knew that if they couldn't find a breakthrough soon, they would all be in dire straits.

Just then, he suddenly came up with a bold plan—to use the power of the Ice Soul Star Core to strengthen himself and thus resist this backlash.

The Ice Soul Star Core is a pure crystallization of frost power, containing boundless power and wisdom.

David always regarded it as his treasure and never used it lightly.

But at this moment, for the sake of the team's survival and the completion of the mission, he decided to take the risk.

David took a deep breath and gripped the Ice Soul Star Core tightly in his hand.

He closed his eyes, sensing the frost power contained within the Ice Soul Star Core, attempting to establish a connection with it.

As he focused his mind, the Ice Soul Star Core began to emit a dazzling light, and a powerful frost force surged from it, instantly enveloping his entire body.

David felt as if his body was enveloped by a cold force, and his blood, muscles and bones underwent subtle changes under the influence of this force.

He gritted his teeth, enduring the pain and torment brought by this power, and tried to integrate it into his bloodline.

However, this process is not easy.

The power of the Ice Soul Star Core is exceptionally strong and difficult to control; the slightest carelessness could lead to catastrophic consequences.

David felt as if his blood was being torn apart by this force, and his consciousness began to become blurred and chaotic.

But David did not give up; he persevered with his indomitable will and unwavering faith.

He knew that only by successfully fusing with the power of the Ice Soul Star Core would he have enough strength to resist this backlash.

After a period of arduous effort, David finally succeeded in fusing the power of the Ice Soul Star Core with his own bloodline.

He felt an unprecedentedly powerful force surging within his body, as if it could destroy any obstacle in his path.

"It's now!"

David shouted, his eyes snapping open with a cold glint in them.

He brandished his longsword and charged toward the source of the backlash, attempting to destroy it with this newly acquired power.

However, the backlash was no ordinary force. Sensing David's threat, it became even more violent and ferocious, as if it wanted to devour him completely.

David clashed fiercely with the backlash, the sword light and frost power intertwining to create a spectacular scene within the temple.

After a fierce battle, David finally managed to withstand the backlash.

He used the power of the Ice Soul Star Core to temporarily suppress this force, giving the team a precious breathing space.

However, David also paid a heavy price.

He forcibly fused with the power of the Ice Soul Star Core, causing subtle changes in his body.

His bloodline contains three different powers: the Frost Giant Wolf, the Snow Demon Soul, and the Sea God's bloodline. These powers conflict and merge within him, forming an unstable form—the [Tri-Phase Ice Source Body].

This form endowed David with near-demigod-level combat power, allowing him to unleash astonishing strength in a short period of time.

However, each time he uses this form, it exacerbates the disintegration of his physical body, making his body gradually more fragile and vulnerable.

David knew that this form could not be used for a long time, otherwise he would face even more serious consequences.

But he also understood that there was no other choice at this moment; he had to use this power to complete their mission.

"I'm fine..." David said to Amy, Lia, and Lena, enduring the pain in his body.

"Let's keep going..."

Amy, Leah, and Lena were filled with emotion and admiration as they looked into David's determined eyes.

They knew that David had made enormous sacrifices for the team's survival and the completion of their mission.

They all nodded in support and prepared to continue.

In the days that followed, David and his companions continued to explore the Frost Realm.

They overcame the difficulties and challenges they encountered by relying on David's "three-phase ice source body" morphology and the team's cooperation and wisdom.

They traversed countless mazes and traps, and endured countless dangers and trials, but always maintained their unwavering faith and determination.
