A thousand winds howled, mingled with the austere, profound light of a thousand baleful forces.
As a bright Heavenly Star rose overhead, its light as clear as moonlight, True Lord Yuanyi sensed a change in True Lord Lingfeng's aura.
It was broad daylight, when the great sun should have bathed everything in its radiance.
Yet a bright moon hung in the sky. Its luminous glow even outshone the sun, creating the strange sight of sun and moon shining together.
True Lord Yuanyi gazed at the Heavenly Star, so like a clear moon. His expression turned solemn, but the smile never left his commanding face. "Your fate star is in the sky. Next come Three Flowers Gathering at the Crown and Five Qi Converging at the Origin, I suppose?"
Though all were fate stars, those manifested at Void Refinement, Integration, Mahayana, and Pure Yang were entirely different.
For an immortal adept at Void Refinement, even the brightest fate star was merely a star. Of all things in the All Heavens and Myriad Worlds, bright stars were hardly scarce.
At Integration, the fate stars of Five Calamities True Lords who had attained Three Flowers Gathering at the Crown and Five Qi Converging at the Origin were no longer great stars, but radiant moons.
A bright moon hanging high shone in every direction, vying with the sun itself.
Only when Five Calamities True Lords failed to break through to Pure Yang and had no choice but to advance to Mahayana would those moons gradually fade back into great stars, albeit brighter than the fate stars of ordinary Void Refinement and Integration True Lords.
For a Pure Yang being, the fate star was a great sun, high in the sky, reigning over all beneath heaven: supremely exalted, supremely noble, its majesty reaching every quarter.
