Destiny

## Introduction

Destiny(命运) was one of the Three Realms Six Daos from the Heavens Sect. It was claimed Destiny mastered the power to peer into the past, present and future and was unpredictable.

## Description

Destiny was a disciple of the Origin Progenitor alongside Wu Tian and God of Death. When she became a Progenitor, she created the art of divination.

Destiny created the art of divination, which allows one to see through the past and future to view the experiences of those around them. She also created a total of 108 pieces of fatesand, as well as the two parts of Heaven’s Enigma, Inverse Enigma, and the Books of Destiny. All together, these things make up Destiny’s inheritance.

## Story

Destiny was one of the ancient Progenitor that existed in history but the knowledge if Destiny had existed was lost in the Fifth Mainland. The only thing that remained were fatesand which cultivators could have obtained and had miraculous effects.

Some fatesand could be used to lock the physical elements and it can awaken a special ability, but also suppress the physical body. It is up to fate whether the fatesand awakens, which it could perhaps it will be one day, perhaps a year, or perhaps never. One will never be able to use it if it does not awaken, and the consumption of vigor and star energy will be extremely overbearing as long as it does not. After it awakens, they'll be able to use the Fatesand to battle, and their physical strength will also explode while its consumption of their strength and star energy will decrease. Some have never been able to awaken it and were forced to bear with the Fatesand’s effects their entire lives. Those people were never able to even compare to a regular person, and even a genius can suffer from such a fate. Lu Yin received fatesand from Mister Mu and it sealed his physical strength, with Lu Yin able to unlock the fatesand with the Stonewall Scripture (Origin Progenitor's Sutra).

The Starsibyl Sect were the first party which Lu Yin encountered the practiced and predicted destiny and fate, with Starsibyl unable to determine Lu Yin's fate, only those around him. Starsibyl predicted that the day in which Nightking Zhenwu was challenged by Lu Yin is a turning point, the point where his cultivation path took off, or the downfall of Nightking Zhenwu (without telling him). After Nightking Zhenwu was killed by Lu Yin, Starsibyl had supported Lu Yin in various ways such as seeing how Undying Yushan had not truly been dead. Although Starsibyl Sect practiced divination, they had claimed to not believe that Destiny had existed to Lu Yin. Inverse Enigma can be regarded as the entry-level divination method left behind by Destiny. It’s the method that’s used by most of whom have received Destiny’s inheritances, including the members of the Starsibyl Sect.

Although Xuan Jiu was from the Starsibyl Sect, he believed that destiny should not be triggered, the more closer one was to Destiny, the more terrible luck one would have, and tried his best to avoid it.

When the Aeternals invaded the Fifth Mainland through the Starfall Sea, Arch-Elder Zen permitted the release of the frozen sourcebox array located in the Fifth Mainland, which contained a generation of cultivators from the Heavens Sect era, and Destina was part of the Divining Heavenly Gate, Destiny's disciple. Destiny had trained Destina, though no one knew if there were other disciples as well since Destiny had always been unpredictable. Lu Buzheng through the tricky of the Lu ancestor, managed to obtain Destiny as one of the Tri-Yang Ancestral Qi clones. Although Lu Buzheng couldn't summon Destiny, it allowed Lu Buzheng to gain insight during key moments.

The ‘Books of Destiny’ are three strange books that were written by Destiny. They are some of the greatest treasures she left behind, and as far as many people are concerned, they are beyond priceless. The books are, respectively, Past, Present, and Future. The one in Skymender's possession is Destiny’s Book of the Present, which gives him access to certain knowledge. Xiao Shi had managed to obtain a book that was hidden in the library of the Hall of Honor, while Bai Xian'er had acquired the last book.

Destiny had a bracelet of pearls that she wore, there were only eleven pearls of the original thirteen, since Destiny had given away two of them. One was given to a child, while the other was given as a gift to the Lu family after Lu Tianyi was selected as a Dao Chosen. The Astral Combat Academy had the Stargazing Deck for each of the Astral Academies, and under each of the Stargazing Decks had the pearls under them.
