Chapter 1049: 327. Broken Descendants

All of mankind’s shackles of fate were broken?

What kind of world would that be?

Would all of humanity no longer experience death, aging, sickness, disasters, and pain?

Wouldn’t that mean everyone had ascended?

Omar Goddard told Noland Lee, it wasn’t like that.

The so-called shackles of fate refer to the inevitabilities in an individual’s life.

Without the shackles of fate, these events could still happen; it’s just that the probability would decrease from 100% to some random value.

At this moment, Noland Lee bore five shackles of fate, ensuring that at a certain moment in the future, he would inevitably face a situation of certain death.

Omar Goddard promised to help Noland Lee break the “death” shackle of fate, not to help him become an “immortal” being, but to help him avoid his deadly situation.

As for when this “deadly situation” would occur, and who would kill Noland Lee, neither Omar Goddard nor the Assassin Angel could know.

Only the White Ancestral Dragon, the being that laid the shackles of fate and hid within the Spinning Continent, knew the deadly situation it had set for Noland Lee.

Upon hearing this, Noland Lee seemed to understand.

Aren’t the shackles of fate just “catastrophes”?

And the White Ancestral Dragon manipulating destiny from the shadows, isn’t it equivalent to an existence like “Heaven’s Will”…

Breaking the shackles of fate is the same as “passing the catastrophe.”

Successful passage means ascension.

In other words, if there were no shackles of fate, there would be no catastrophe.

Without a catastrophe, there can be no passing, and ascension would be impossible.

If the White Ancestral Dragon were to die, the people in this world could indeed avoid their individual catastrophes, but they would also lose the opportunity to advance.

But after breaking the shackles of fate, what could one advance to?

Noland Lee frowned in deep contemplation.

In modern magic textbooks, the term “shackles of fate” had never appeared, nor was there any related introduction.

The magic teaching materials only mentioned that a wizard should ascend through the path of “Wizard Apprentice – Formal Wizard – High-level Wizard – Saint Tier Wizard – Star-level Wizard.”

The only thing that might be related to the shackles of fate was probably the process of ascending from Saint Tier to Star-level.

Omar Goddard analyzed a bit:

To ascend in the Mass Wizard Tombs, wizards have to abandon their physical bodies, which is akin to welcoming their own death and directly confronting their ‘death’ shackle.

Upon further reflection, Noland Lee realized that it appeared not only Star Witches could break the “death” shackle.

Benjamin Jelani and Clint “Windhawk”, those two Transcendent-level Wizards residing in the Sub-Dimensional Plane, their Magic Avatars are “False Eternal Beings” that are immune to “death.”

Could this be a manifestation of having broken the “death” shackle?
