This is the Glorious Realm, the Crown Star Church.
Dozens of radiant temples stand layer upon layer deep within the starry sky. Within each temple, a beam of light pierces the void, guiding the starlight. This fallen starlight illuminates the dark world as if it were daylight.
On the day of star convergence, there is no night, only day, illuminating thousands of realms.
All the Transcendents living in the Glorious Realm understand upon witnessing this magical spectacle⌠the biannual Star Watching Day has arrived.
Star Watching Day is one of the greatest events in the entire Southern Domain Wizard World.
Such a significant event, naturally, is not ordinary; it implies that everyone in the Wizardsâ Realm is paying attention, and even the smallest change can affect the larger picture and perhaps leave a deep mark in the annals of history.
Star Watching Day is such a grand event with the potential to alter the course of history!
Whenever Star Watching Day is held, almost all the Prophet Wizards of the Southern Domain gather at the Crown Star Church. They do so to enter the Stargazing Hall and glimpse the Star Map of the future.
Today is no exception. Originally quiet, Crown Star Church is now bustling with the influx of Prophet Wizards from all directions.
If one were to look down from above, they would notice on usually deserted roads, there are now small black dots like ants, each representing a Prophet Wizard.
They are slowly climbing, heading towards the peak of the highest mountain of the Crown Star Church, converging at the great hall that emits endless starlight.
That is the Stargazing Hall!
Just as the Research and Development Institute holds an irrefutable status for Alchemists, the Stargazing Hall is an undisputed Holy Land for Prophet Wizards!
All travel to the Stargazing Hall on foot. Even though the Crown Star Church has not issued any prohibition against flying here, these Prophet Wizards still choose to walk. This is out of respect for the Holy Land and a kind of devotion to their faith.
On this long road to the Stargazing Hall, an old lady with a cane and a tall young man are slowly moving towards the mountain peak.
These two are the Maya Witch and Dodolo from the Barbarian Cave.
"Remember this: once the Mystery of the Stars is activated, no matter what information you receive, do not, as you did last time, reveal any abnormal reactions. The spiritual sense of Prophet Wizards is very keen; even the smallest of gestures might lead them to conclude you have discovered something." The Maya Witch solemnly instructed Dodolo.
Dodolo did not reply, merely nodding slightly.
The Maya Witch glanced at the calm expression of Dodolo, sighing softly in her heart. This boy is good in every way, except heâs too indifferent, as if devoid of emotion.
For Prophet Wizards, excessive unnecessary emotions can indeed affect the judgment of results, but if one is entirely devoid of emotion, they still cannot arrive at accurate answers.
The Maya Witch thought of advising him, but ultimately, after weighing her options, she chose to remain silent.
Dodolo is unlike other Prophet Wizards. He should conduct his prophecies in a manner comfortable to himselfâŚ
"Have you decided this time? What do you plan to divine from the Mystery of the Stars?" Maya asked curiously.
Dodolo did not answer, but instead, a mocking voice came from the side: "What? Does the Maya Witch think that he, an Apprentice, can glean any prophecy from the Mystery of the Stars?"
Looking back, Maya saw that, unbeknownst to her, a burly man with dark skin appeared nearby.
This man was large and rugged-looking, with the only remarkable feature on his face being blue scales beneath his eyes. They resembled tear drops or⌠a crying Joker.
This "black man," whose appearance was entirely unlike that of a Prophet Wizard, was indeed a Prophet Wizard. Moreover, his ability ranked high among the Prophet Wizards.
He was Tuvalule, a Prophet Wizard from the Song of the Deep Sea, who believed in the "Clock of Inquiry" prophecy school.
"So itâs Tuvalule." Maya glanced indifferently at the mocking Tuvalule and softly said, "I only heard that Yimagan has an eavesdropping habit. Since when did you pick it up?"
Yimagan is also a wizard from the Song of the Deep Sea. However, rumors suggest that his relations with some great titans of the Otherworld are superb, with suspicions that Yimagan is an Otherworld spy.
Tuvalule belongs to a different faction within the Song of the Deep Sea than Yimagan, and he even dislikes Yimagan. But, ultimately, as they both are part of the Song of the Deep Sea, Tuvalule had to stand by Yimagan due to Mayaâs retort.
Tuvalule, somewhat displeased, said, "If you spoke in whispers, naturally I wouldnât have heard. But since you were conversing aloud, of course, I can listen freely."
"However, upon hearing your conversation, Iâm tempted to clean my ears; it was utterly uninteresting." Tuvalule turned his gaze to Dodolo: "Especially him, an apprentice wishing to challenge the Mystery of the Stars? Dream on."
Maya replied, "You shouldnât be so sure. You must know that in this world, many have exceptionally good luck."
"Are you referring to him?" Tuvalule pointed at Dodolo.
Maya nodded, "If you donât believe it, you might as well ask the Clock of Inquiry for a solution. Or, perhaps, a prophecy?"
Tuvalule: "Everyone knows that itâs forbidden to use any spell techniques on this path. Are you inciting me?"
Maya: "Iâm only making a suggestion."
Tuvalule sneered, "The Maya Witchâs eloquence has improved much from before."
Maya: "Thank you."
Tuvalule: "I wasnât complimenting you. I came over just to tell you that the task assigned to me by the Sea God, I will complete. But if you want information from me, itâll come at a certain price."
As for what price, Tuvalule didnât say, but rather left with a proud demeanor.
Maya looked at Tuvaluleâs departing figure, her brow slightly furrowing: "It seems heâs raising the price on the spot."
Dodolo, who had yet to speak, finally spoke: "Mentor, what did he mean?"
Maya shook her head: "Just a shared prophecy message, nothing to mind. Letâs return to the previous topic. What you wish to prophesy, I wonât ask. But you must remember, you are someone favored by fate, and you need to discern the scenes you see. Sometimes, some information in the scenes might not be beneficial to you."
Pausing, Maya added, "Also, do not gaze for too long. Even favored by heaven, there will come a day when oneâs luck runs out."
Dodolo nodded.
"Enough talk, weâre here." Maya stopped, looking at the grand palace in the starlight, a hint of awe flickering in her eyes.
After a moment of silence, Maya patted Dodolo on the shoulder: "Letâs go in."

As Maya and Dodolo entered the Stargazing Hall, Angel also arrived at Pat Manor in the Wilderness of Dreams.
Angel came searching for Sanders this time, initially intending to inquire about "virtual magic power" and to discuss it with Sanders.
However, upon seeing Angel, Sanders spoke first, "Other matters can wait. First, return to reality; the time to watch the stars is upon us."
