Chapter 1 Star Chart Sign

Brilliant star charts lit up beneath the feet of the five members of the Shan Gui (Mountain Ghost) camp, then contracted, splitting into five streams of light that converged into the five bamboo sticks.

Bai Wu Jin Ji (No Taboos) held up the bamboo sticks, gazing at the faces. The light retracted, and a line of small characters rapidly appeared on the surface of each stick, flashing like a slide, imprinted in the minds of the five stick-holders:

"Star Sign: Supreme Luck!"

"Yuanshi Tianzun (Celestial Worthy of Primordial Beginning) has cast the Heart of the Forest. Once the gem returns to its place, all four arrays will be activated, the seal will be initiated, the blood pool will be completely isolated, the Shan Gui (Mountain Ghost) camp will have no more chances to throw in blood jade, and they will undoubtedly lose.

"Bai Wu Jin Ji (No Taboos), aware of the crisis, drew his Blood Demon Bow and shot at the Heart of the Forest, trying to prevent the gem from returning to the array. His item possesses the ability to mark, guaranteeing a hit. Bai Wu Jin Ji (No Taboos) is confident that he can deflect the gem.

"However, Jiang Jingwei, having witnessed the power of this item, threw a fireball, displaying fire manipulation, inconsiderately planning to intercept the Blood Demon Arrow with her own flesh and blood. At the critical moment, 'Wei Wo Du Zun' (I Alone Am Supreme), melting part of the ice, restored his water control ability and erected a water wall, extinguishing Jiang Jingwei's fireball.

"The Blood Demon Arrow successfully struck the Heart of the Forest, preventing it from returning to the array eye."

The sign's text flashed through his mind. Bai Wu Jin Ji (No Taboos) unhesitatingly took out the red great bow, aimed at the Heart of the Forest flying towards the stone palm, and drew the bow like a full moon.

"Boom!"

The arrow whistled away, drawing a red line in the air.

At that moment, a scorching fireball, like a cannonball, smashed towards the inevitable path of the arrow.

The fireball came from Jiang Jingwei. When Bai Wu Jin Ji (No Taboos) took out the great bow, she, with her extraordinary combat talent, immediately realized the opponent's purpose. Her body's instincts were faster than her brain, and she threw out the fireball.

Immediately afterwards, a crimson flame rose from Jiang Jingwei's body, enveloping her.

Wei Wo Du Zun (I Alone Am Supreme) seemed to have anticipated this step. When Jiang Jingwei threw out the fireball, he held up the Water God Seal and erected a water wall on the fireball's flight path.

With a series of "hiss" sounds, the fireball was extinguished before it could explode, and thick steam rose.

The flames on Jiang Jingwei's body rose, but because she lost the medium of "fire manipulation," it was a futile effort, and soon dissipated. "Ding!"

The arrow, condensed from essence blood, struck the verdant gem squarely, knocking it away at an angle.

All of this happened too quickly and suddenly. Bai Wu Jin Ji (No Taboos) and Wei Wo Du Zun (I Alone Am Supreme) seemed to have practiced it thousands of times. Without thinking, without observing, they stopped the Heart of the Forest from returning with unparalleled cooperation.

At this time, Yuanshi Tianzun (Celestial Worthy of Primordial Beginning), Guan Ya, and the others had just reacted. Including Jiang Jingwei, her thoughts were still focused on using fire manipulation to stop the arrow.

The enemy seemed to have predicted the future.

That's right, they predicted the future.

The item used by the five members of Bai Wu Jin Ji (No Taboos) is called the Star Chart Five Signs, a rule-based item, integrating the Star Official and a foreign professional characteristic, possessing the ability to predict the future.

To be precise, this item can select the most beneficial route for the user from countless changes in the future. If the user acts according to the instructions on the bamboo stick, the future development will perfectly match their own expectations.

The future shown in the Star Chart Five Signs cannot be interfered with or changed.

This item comes from Dark Rose and is an important item for killing Yuanshi Tianzun (Celestial Worthy of Primordial Beginning).

There are two prices for using it: First, the first four signs are supremely auspicious for the user, and the last sign is extremely ominous.

In other words, the user must eliminate the enemy in the first four signs; otherwise, they will suffer extremely terrible backlash. Second, the number of people present when using this item cannot exceed fifteen.

Dark Rose's explanation is that the more people there are, the more complex the karma, the greater the variables in the future. If there are more than fifteen people, the Star Chart Five Signs cannot accurately calculate the future direction.

Therefore, in the ambush in the Maze Forest, the Shan Gui (Mountain Ghost) camp did not use this item because the number of people at that time had exceeded the limit.

The same was true for the Mountain God Temple's defense.

Otherwise, Bai Wu Jin Ji (No Taboos) would have definitely used the Star Chart Five Signs decisively in the Maze Forest to nip Yuanshi Tianzun (Celestial Worthy of Primordial Beginning), this confidant's great problem, in the bud.

Killing him would complete half of the mission of this killing instance.

Killing him, how could the rabble of the Mountain God camp contend with them? However, it is not too late now.

The Heart of the Forest tumbled and flew into the distance. Seeing this, Hong Wei held up her bamboo stick, gazing at the sign face. The image of the future, in the form of text, flashed through the minds of the five people like a slide show:

"Star Sign Two: Supreme Luck!"

"Watching the 'Heart of the Forest' being knocked away, Yuanshi Tianzun (Celestial Worthy of Primordial Beginning) drove his spirit servant to compete for it. His spirit servant possesses strength surpassing the Extraordinary realm and is one of his dependencies. Fortunately, Hong Wei's Soul-Seizing Mirror happens to restrain spirit servants. She shone the mirror light on the Heart of the Forest, fixing Yuanshi Tianzun's (Celestial Worthy of Primordial Beginning) spirit servant in place.

"Zhao Chenghuang used Night Wander, silently approaching the Heart of the Forest, wanting to seize this mission item. Night Wander concealed him from everyone's eyes, but Wei Wo Du Zun (I Alone Am Supreme) drove the river, stirring up waves, making him nowhere to hide.

"Bai Wu Jin Ji (No Taboos) aimed for an opportunity, drew his bow and shot two arrows in succession, severely injuring Zhao Chenghuang. The Heart of the Forest rolled to the ground and was snatched away by a small spirit servant skilled at treasure hunting. Seeing this, A-Yi flapped his wings and chased after it, but was intercepted by Yuanshi Tianzun (Celestial Worthy of Primordial Beginning), Guan Ya, and Zhao Chenghuang's Yin corpse.

"Jiu Lou Yu (Nine Leaks Fish) took the opportunity to pursue the Heart of the Forest, encountering Kou Beiyue's obstruction. The two sides engaged in a deadly battle."

"They all fell for a diversion. The little monster A-Yi nurtured blocked the little spirit servant's path and successfully scared it into crying, successfully seizing the gem." "Array activation crisis resolved."

The Ghost Bride quietly emerged, capturing the Heart of the Forest in its ejected state. Just as she was about to return to her husband's side with the mission item, a yellow mirror light shone on her impartially.

Hong Wei seemed to have foreseen this step.

The Ghost Bride's body stiffened, frozen in mid-air.

The Heart of the Forest passed through her body and continued to fly into the distance.

At the same time that Hong Wei cast the mirror light, Wei Wo Du Zun (I Alone Am Supreme) manipulated the Water God Seal, stirring up a wave from the ground, sweeping towards the front. With a "boom," the wave hit an invisible figure.

Almost simultaneously, Bai Wu Jin Ji (No Taboos) continuously drew his bow and shot two arrows made of essence blood, hitting Zhao Chenghuang in the distance.

The latter grunted, his chest stained with blood mist, his clothes and skin rapidly festering, blood oozing from the corners of his mouth, seemingly suffering from serious internal injuries.

Zhao Chenghuang was completely stunned. *Thud*

The Heart of the Forest landed on the ground, then floated a dozen centimeters again, rapidly drifting towards the other end of the park.

At the same time, Jiu Lou Yu (Nine Leaks Fish) lunged out, wielding a knife, vying for the Heart of the Forest. He didn't have the ability to predict the future, but that didn't prevent him from making the right choice.

Seeing this, Kou Beiyue darted out like a cheetah, kicking Jiu Lou Yu (Nine Leaks Fish) back. The two quickly engaged in close combat. "Buzz!"

According to the sign, A-Yi, while manipulating the little monster to outflank the Heart of the Forest, flapped his wings and flew up, chasing after the small spirit servant skilled at treasure hunting.

As expected, as soon as he took off, he was immediately besieged by Guan Ya, Yuanshi Tianzun (Celestial Worthy of Primordial Beginning), and the Level 4 Yin corpse.

A-Yi calmly sprayed a stream of highly corrosive poison, while switching to a form with earthworm-like rings growing on his skin. Relying on his powerful vitality and self-healing ability, he tangled (was beaten) with the three experts.

At this time, the three little monsters succeeded in outflanking, surrounding the Heart of the Forest.

The green gem floated back and forth in the air, seemingly not knowing which side to break through.

One of the little monsters hissed, baring its teeth. The green gem paused, then *thudded* to the ground. Zhang Yuanqing abruptly turned his head and saw the wailing little simpleton, flailing its limbs, crawling towards him like a fly.

The Heart of the Forest was held in the hands of a little Gu beast.

Seeing this, A-Yi quickly switched forms, spread his elytra, flew high into the air, passed Guan Ya and the Yin corpse, and joined up with the little Gu beast.

Zhang Yuanqing, Guan Ya, and Zhao Chenghuang did not pursue, but looked at each other in horror. Zhao Chenghuang took a deep breath:

"Something's wrong. They seem to have calculated all our actions. No matter what we do, they can predict it in advance."

Guan Ya said in disbelief, "Predict the future?"

Zhang Yuanqing nodded with a solemn expression, "It seems so."

They were not stupid. In the first round of confrontation, they hadn't yet figured out the specifics. When the second round of confrontation ended, they saw through the secrets of the Shan Gui (Mountain Ghost) camp.

"What do we do?" Guan Ya asked in a low voice. Zhao Chenghuang frowned, thought for a few seconds, and said:

"This should be the ability of a Star Official, but not entirely. As far as I know, Star Officials have a certain predictive ability about the future. It is said that when they cultivate to the highest level, they can see the direction of fate.

"However, this prediction is vague, predicting the general trend, the signs. If it is a rule-based item, then there is no way."

Zhang Yuanqing suddenly realized, "Like fortune-telling?"

As he spoke, he couldn't help but think of Xia Houxin's death.

Zhao Chenghuang shook his head, then nodded again: "A bit like it, but also not. You'll understand when you become a Star Official yourself if we can still advance to Saint."

Old bro, what you said sounds very pessimistic. Zhang Yuanqing felt heavy in his heart, thought for a while, and said, "Can we avoid being predicted by eliminating distractions and fighting instinctively?"

Zhao Chenghuang glanced at him, "Predicting the future and reading minds are two different things." On the other side, Wei Wo Du Zun (I Alone Am Supreme) held up the bamboo stick and saw the future: "Star Sign Three: Supreme Luck!"

"Realizing that the Shan Gui (Mountain Ghost) camp could predict the future, Yuanshi Tianzun (Celestial Worthy of Primordial Beginning), Zhao Chenghuang, and Guan Ya dared not act rashly, which was undoubtedly a good opportunity to throw in blood jade.

"Wei Wo Du Zun (I Alone Am Supreme) ran towards the blood pool with the blood jade, trying to summon the monster in the pool. Seeing this, Yuanshi Tianzun (Celestial Worthy of Primordial Beginning) used the Yin Jade Doll on him. This item is a rule-based item, unavoidable, unstoppable. Wei Wo Du Zun (I Alone Am Supreme) failed to throw in the blood jade and barely maneuvered around the Yin Jade Doll using his Water Ghost characteristics.

"Seeing his companion being hindered, A-Yi flew towards the blood pool, preparing to throw the blood jade into it. Yuanshi Tianzun (Celestial Worthy of Primordial Beginning) released a large illusion again. Fortunately, Liang Chen Zhe Zhu Er Shi (Good Minister Chooses Master to Serve) covered him and Si Po Jie (Killing to Break) saw through the enemy's tricks, dispelling the illusion with the Six Soul Banner.

"Yuanshi Tianzun (Celestial Worthy of Primordial Beginning), whose trick failed, used the Yin-Yang Robe, using fire manipulation to close the distance and trap A-Yi in an array. At this time, Wei Wo Du Zun (I Alone Am Supreme) was controlled by the Yin Jade Doll and could not extinguish the fire. Yuanshi Tianzun (Celestial Worthy of Primordial Beginning) succeeded, and A-Yi failed to throw in the blood jade.

"Bai Wu Jin Ji (No Taboos), who controlled the last piece of blood jade, was besieged by Guan Ya, Zhao Chenghuang, and Jiang Jingwei. Helplessly, he had to throw the blood jade to Liang Chen Zhe Zhu Er Shi (Good Minister Chooses Master to Serve), letting him break through with the blood jade.

"Liang Chen Zhe Zhu Er Shi (Good Minister Chooses Master to Serve) was immediately besieged by Zhao Chenghuang's Yin corpse and Yuanshi Tianzun's (Celestial Worthy of Primordial Beginning) spirit servant, his life hanging by a thread. However, the blood jade in his hand was an illusion, a fake.

"Yuanshi Tianzun (Celestial Worthy of Primordial Beginning), who should have been meticulous, forgot to apply purification to his companions due to a moment of carelessness, so that no one saw through the illusion. In fact, the real blood jade was thrown to Hong Wei.

"At this time, no one in the Mountain God camp could stop Hong Wei anymore. She successfully broke through with the blood jade and threw it into the blood pool. 'The supreme existence in the darkness awakens!'"
