Chapter 278: Chapter 268: 3rd Rank “Prophet
The Path of Revelation’s 3rd Rank.
“Prophet”
In the Spirit Realm, its image is that of a solitary black elder, whose specific gender is indiscernible, shrouded in white blindfolds with a constantly shifting aura of black and white.
Above the head of the black elder hovers a massive, profound eye, emitting unceasing radiance as if it scrutinizes all matters and gazes upon everything.
To become a “Prophet,” one must first master the Power of Consecution of the first two Ranks of the Path of Revelation—”Enlightened One” and “Proficient One.”
Furthermore, the “Proficient One” must complete a promotion ritual: within one week, they must alter the destinies of three people continuously, making their futures align with the prophecies they had previously set forth.
During Karno’s advancement to “Proficient One,” the Fischer family sacrificed a Class 2 Extraordinary Material known as “Dazed Light.”
That was a light sphere that would brighten and dim intermittently, actually a special Extraordinary Material produced by an extremely rare plant from the Aphotic Sea. If it weren’t for the Fischer family’s maritime business in the Aphotic Sea, it would have been very difficult to obtain it.
However, when advancing to “Prophet,” the sacrificed Extraordinary Material was the “White Demon’s Eye.”
It belongs to a demon from hell named “White Demon” that can foresee danger; it resembles a snowball filled with tiny tentacles, containing three hundred and sixty-one eyes.
The White Demon is quite weak, prefers to devour corpses, and its flesh tastes similar to human girls, serving as a primary food source for many powerful demons.
The only part of it that qualifies as a Class 3 Extraordinary Material is its main eye, the size of a fist, with those smaller eyes merely considered Class 1 Extraordinary Material.
Through trade with some Lorne citizens, the Fischer family acquired several White Demon eyes, including two main eyes.
“Prophet” is a highly pure Consecution, endowing an Extraordinary Exponent with 70% Spiritual Power and provides no enhancement to physical attributes.
Upon becoming a “Prophet,” one would obtain three destiny spells—powerful and consuming of significant amounts of Spiritual Power.
A “Prophet” can make prophecies about the future in three ways.
The first type of destiny spell is the “Dream Prophecy,” which often activates passively. For instance, a “Prophet” might see strange fragments in their dreams.
These fragments represent a future that is likely to occur, but many of the dream fragments lack logic and are difficult to interpret.
At the same time, “Prophets” can also ingest special drugs to induce dreams, attempting to actively seek glimpses of the future within the dream.
“Dream Prophecy” tends to focus more on predicting “dangers” and “opportunities.”
The second type is “Tarot Prophecy,” simply put, a “Prophet” can draw Tarot cards or other mystical cards to predict the future to some extent, and the meanings contained in these cards also need interpretation.
The results of “Tarot Prophecy” are more geared towards “career,” “love,” “fortune,” and such aspects.
The last type of destiny spell is “Precise Prophecy,” which yields much more accurate foresight than the previous two. The fates and futures deduced are difficult to alter without proactive measures.
However, only Spiritual Power is depleted by the first two prophecy spells.
But to cast a “Precise Prophecy,” the “Prophet” must burn away their own lifespan, and the more important and accurate the foresight, the more of the “Prophet’s” life is consumed.
In theory, “Precise Prophecy” can lead directly to the “Prophet’s” death.
And regardless, fate has a way of playing tricks.
“Fate Behemoth”
It represents five o’clock in the morning.
It is also one of the great otherworldly gods.
It is the embodiment of fate itself— revered in human speech—a colossal spider in the void with countless limbs, manipulating the invisible threads of destiny.
Ultimately, it will mock all living beings equally.
A “Prophet” is but mere dust in the endless expanse of the cosmic river and can never truly control their own fate.

Emerald Lake Province.
The manor of the “Dragon Taming Lord” Aldrich.
He paced back and forth in a study room that was not luxurious but filled with abundant, neatly arranged books, calmly pondering many events from recent years.
Years ago, Aldrich promptly returned to Cyart’s southern province and reported the affair of the Words of Tranquility Order in full to Duke Romann and the Cyart King.
Duke Romann was then silent, contemplating something.
After hearing everything, the Cyart King flew into a rage.
“I will never allow those heretics to run amok in my kingdom!”
“Whatever the cost, I will fulfill my promise and lead the Cyart people to the pinnacle!”
He was vehement in his stance and took the matter very seriously, expressing on the spot that he would have the court mage “Silver Poet” pursue the Words of Tranquility Order with all her might.
Aldrich raised no objections, as he was quite familiar with the capabilities of Madam Aphrodus, “Silver Poet.
She is a silver descendant and genius who broke through to the Monarch Level in a limited lifespan, now the most trusted confidant of the Cyart King.
“Silver Poet” Aphrodus, a highly exceptional and wise woman, commands respect.
