Chapter 116: Chapter 114: Wizard Mark: Destiny Revelation

Who knows what new functions the ’Temple of Truth’ will unlock after its restoration?

Yang Qizhou was rather looking forward to it,

and as his finger tapped on the screen, pale words refreshed once again.

...

...

"You’re not keeping us in suspense; you took out the No. 1 Temple of Truth Fragment."

"The fragmented stone piece appears so ordinary that if casually thrown by the roadside, it wouldn’t attract any attention."

"But when ’Little Seventeen’ laid eyes on this ’Temple of Truth Fragment,’ her already astounded expression grew even more astonished."

"She said... To think it’s the No. 1-ranked Temple of Truth Fragment. Future wizard, I can hardly believe your good fortune."

"Could it be that the No. 1 Temple of Truth Fragment differs significantly from the others?"

"Curious, you voiced this question out loud."

"’Little Seventeen’ was clearly moved by the No. 1 Temple of Truth Fragment and, without concealment, truthfully explained."

"Through her explanation, you soon came to understand the whole story..."

"The Temple of Truth consists of twenty-four halls, under the jurisdiction of the Supreme Truth Institution, tasked with nurturing ’wizards.’ From Sequence Two to Sequence Twenty-Four, these twenty-three Temples of Truth share no fundamental differences; their roles and functionalities are roughly the same, only differing in their training specializations."

"The No. 1, however, is different."

"Although this Temple of Truth is nominally subordinate to the ’Supreme Truth Institution,’ in practice, even the Institution’s overseer cannot interfere with its affairs. The wizards emerging from the No. 1 Temple are destined to become wizards surpassing the divine ’high positions.’"

"All of this is because the actual overseer of the No. 1 Temple of Truth is a very unique existence—none other than the creator of ’wizards,’ the ruler of this world, the great wizard who once came unimaginably close to the ’ultimate goal.’"

"You notice ’Little Seventeen’ becoming more excited as she spoke, unable to contain her joy, reaching out to snatch the No. 1 Temple of Truth Fragment."

"You dodge effortlessly, stepping aside, causing her to nearly fall flat on her face."

"You quickly digested this information."

"That great wizard who came so tantalizingly close to the ’ultimate goal’ was the ruler of the Old Earth, the leader of all ’wizards.’ You had long suspected this and were not entirely surprised."

"What truly startled you, however, was the revelation that ’wizards’ were also created by ’Him.’"

"You felt an intense curiosity about this ’great’ wizard."

"You inquired further about information regarding the ’great wizard.’"

"But ’Little Seventeen’s’ response disappointed you. She shook her head in frustration and said... I can’t seem to recall. It’s as if an invisible hand has wiped away my knowledge of the great wizard."

"Erased knowledge?"

"You were shocked, instinctively giving rise to an absurd thought... Could this phenomenon be specific to ’Little Seventeen,’ or has all of Old Earth’s memory of this great ’wizard’ been erased?"

"Of course,"

"You know this is merely an interlude. The true identity of the great ’wizard’ currently stirs your curiosity but offers no tangible benefit. The real task at hand is repairing the ’Temple of Truth.’"

"You urged ’Little Seventeen’ to get to work quickly."

"This lifelike automaton was also eagerly looking forward to restoring the ’Temple of Truth,’ wasting no time as relevant functionalities were immediately activated."

"You witnessed the No. 1 Temple of Truth Fragment exude a hazy radiance, followed by a dazzling light pattern emerging before you, illuminating the entire ’Temple of Truth.’ Threads of dark-hued light aligned and intertwined, forming mysterious symbols capable of tapping into occult powers."

"You saw those ’mysterious symbols’ seemingly come alive, dancing and leaping, eventually transforming into inscriptions that fused into ’Little Seventeen’s’ body."

"A formless aura manifested nearby."

"This Temple of Truth seemed the same as before, yet subtly different, with imperceptible changes to the naked eye."

"What new functions might this repair unlock?"

"You looked at the lifelike automaton in front of you, filled with boundless anticipation."

"You watched ’Little Seventeen’ come back to life, her eyes sparkling."

"You saw her excitedly leaping and jumping."

"Hurriedly, you stepped forward and asked... ’Little Seventeen, how is it?’"

"The lifelike automaton didn’t feign mystery or act mischievous but instead cheerfully replied."

"’Great’ wizard, I must once again laud your incredible luck. This No. 1 Temple of Truth Fragment is immensely powerful: it contains the Black King Chapter of the ’Ancient Dominator,’ the Wizard Marks [Mark of Slaughter] and [Destiny Revelation]."

"’Wizard Marks’?"

"You’d never heard this term before and found it rather strange."

"’Little Seventeen,’ noticing the confusion in your eyes, took the initiative to explain... Every ’wizard’ wields a distinctive and peculiar mark. It is a permanent manifestation of their power’s nature in reality, serving various purposes... amplifying compatible ’wondrous objects,’ setting up arcane traps, protecting loved ones or apprentices, and more."

"So it’s basically like a ’talisman,’ right?... You internally concluded."

"You obtained [Mark of Slaughter] and [Destiny Revelation]."

Mark of Slaughter (Wizard Mark - Epic): The exclusive Wizard Mark of the ’Beheading Wizard,’ imbued with the concept of ’decapitation.’ Effect: Allows you to temporarily harness slaughter skills surpassing the ’Star Spirit’ rank. Duration: 20 minutes. Usage requirement: Contains Ancient Roots.

Note: The ’wizard’ is no longer present. The power contained within this Wizard Mark allows for only one more use. Use it wisely.

Destiny Revelation (Wizard Mark - Epic): The exclusive Wizard Mark of ’Destiny,’ imbued with the concept of ’destiny.’ Effect: You can designate a target and, according to your will, bestow upon them insights at the ’destiny’ level. Usage requirement: Contains Ancient Roots.

Note: The ’wizard’ is no longer present. The power contained within this Wizard Mark allows for only one more use. Use it wisely.

"So, they’re just consumable items, huh."

"You felt a bit disappointed and were about to say something when, in the next moment, an unexpected change occurred..."

"The Wizard Mark [Destiny Revelation] embedded itself into your palm, and the eerie caws of crows echoed in your mind as ’destiny’s’ power erupted from the Dark Crow of Profane Fortune."

"Your ’Destiny Wizard Mark’ absorbed sufficient power of destiny."

"You realized,"

"You could now use this ability freely."

...

...

Holy crap, what an unexpected surprise.

When Yang Qizhou first realized the ’Wizard Marks’ were merely consumables, he felt a little let down. After all, he already owned so many wondrous objects of high position—Quasi-legendary items like [Law Book] and [Hidden God’s Clothes], Ultra-epic level [Head of Jealousy], and Epic-level items like [Holy Redemption], [Silver Holy Object], and [Thunder Eye], to name a few...

Something like these single-use items, even with their epic-level grade, frankly weren’t very enticing to him.

Yet the turn of events came so suddenly. The ’destiny’ power gushed out of the ’Dark Crow of Profane Fortune,’ fully charging [Destiny Revelation] and transforming it into an unlimited-use ability, wholly his own.

What bliss.

Yang Qizhou’s grin stretched to the back of his ears. Opening his palm, he saw an arcane, mystic-textured mark gradually emerge, flickering like flames, while a profound understanding crystalized in his mind.

He had completely mastered the power to ’reveal’ from the aspect of destiny itself...

"Strange, though—how could a crow that profanes ’destiny’ release the power of ’destiny’? What could be the reason for this?"

Yang Qizhou pondered for a moment but couldn’t figure it out, so he decided to set the matter aside for now.

Soon, his attention shifted back to [Destiny Revelation]. Whatever he thought of caused a sly, mischievous grin to spread across his face. "Midnight is exactly when resurrection counts reset. That fat Fox should still be gaming, yeah? Hehehe, let’s use him as a test subject."

"[Destiny Revelation], it’s your time to shine,"

"Go."

...

...

In a luxury hotel in the Capital City.

’Fox’ leaned against the wall, neither drinking cola nor snacking. His expression was twisted, every fiber of his being engrossed in the game [Deceit World].

His three resurrection chances were long used up, but he didn’t care. Using his last ’Old Sacrifice,’ he bought a [Destiny Fire Bottle] from the ’Destiny Store.’ He was willing to bleed himself dry if it meant advancing the plot as fast as possible.

"The storyline with the Rest Angel ’Archer’ is nearly complete. Once I receive His blessing of flesh and blood, my ’game character’ can change roles into a ’Resting Disciple’ and finally become a true transcendent being,"

"’Honey Badger,’ just you wait. What I lost before, I’ll take back in full."

You couldn’t blame ’Fox’ for being so desperate. His earlier experiences left quite a shadow in his heart during the day.

’Honey Badger,’ the big-shot owner of an ’Original Darkness’ artifact, approached him for a commission. Not only did he subject ’Fox’ to despicable and merciless methods of torture, but he also extorted 3.5 million.

What humiliation,

What hatred.

From that moment, ’Fox’ swore he’d reclaim everything he’d lost.

Luckily, ’Fox’ didn’t have awareness of alternate threads of fate; otherwise, knowing he’d actually been extorted twice would’ve had him spitting blood.

By any means necessary, he would grow stronger, regain his pride from ’Honey Badger,’ and shatter the shadows lingering in his heart.

This was all ’Fox’ lived for now.

But at that moment,

while fiercely battling in [Deceit World], Fox suddenly shivered. A chill rippled through his scalp, raising goosebumps all over his body.

From the void,

A whisper from the realm of ’destiny’ descended upon him.
