Chapter 262: The Path of Fate

Joo Joowon entered the faction shop and took a look. Aside from the class system that the Astral Palace had generously released for its members to practice, there were also many other advanced classes within it. However, most of them had evolved from Astrologers, Shamans, and Astronomers, while only a small portion were class systems that started from the Astral Diviner. Their selling prices were so high that they were somewhat astonishing.

The reason for this was probably that under this class system, players could reach the limit at every stage.

The limit of the first tier was Level 20, which the vast majority of basic classes could reach. However, most second tier classes reached their limit at Level 35 or 36, while under the advancement path of the Astral Diviner, almost all of them only met the breakthrough requirements at Level 39 or 40. The lower limit was high, and the upper limit was even higher.

However, after flipping through the options for a long time, he actually could not find a single path that had even the slightest overlap with his own. He could not help feeling that something was wrong. After carefully going through everything again, he still found nothing, so he could only go to the Astral Palace’s forum to see if he could find an answer.

Just a moment ago, he had still been thinking about how other players would be dumbfounded after choosing classes with no path forward. He never would have imagined that the clown seemed to be himself.

One had to know that the more special a class was, the more strange and specialized the cultivation materials required in the later stages would become. Some might even have already become extinct. For example, the requirement for advancing to a Dragon Knight was to possess a dragon that had signed a contract with oneself.

How could an ordinary player possibly meet such a requirement?

Therefore, even though he was still very far away from having to face such problems in the future, he had no choice but to prepare for them in advance.

Joo Joowon searched the forum for some keywords, and he finally found the knowledge he had been looking for. He could not help letting out a sigh of relief.

In a certain sense, Astral Diviners could be said to depend on the heavens for their livelihood. Aside from the well-known Main Stars, there were also many obscure Main Stars, such as Joo Joowon’s own Celestial Fiend Forsaken Star, or Byeol’s Heaven’s Pardon entering his destiny. Because of this, unlike the other systems, Astral Diviners each embarked on different paths from the very first stage after stepping into the supernatural realm.

Even though they were both have Celestial Fiend and Forsaken Stars, Byeol’s skills were different from him because the things they perceived from their Main Stars were not the same.

This was also one of the major characteristics of the Path of Fate.

The Age of Apocalypse divided classes into seven Paths, namely Life, Glory, Corruption, Ideal, Chaos, War, and Fate.

Most classes on the Path of Glory belonged to churches, such as Paladins, Priests, Angels, and the like, while the Path of Fate belonged to career paths like Joo Joowon’s, which were naturally compatible with a certain aspect from birth.

The Paths of Glory and Fate were also the ones that needed the least concern about their later advancement routes. The reason the Path of Glory did not need such worries was because their classes had already been designed by ’God’ from the very beginning. They only needed to steadily follow the steps, believe in the gods, and gain contributions. As for the Path of Fate, it was because their classes would be actively delivered to them under the interference of fate.

Take Astral Diviners for example. They only needed to communicate with their own Main Stars, and they could relatively easily obtain information about their advancement to the next stage.

Because everyone’s fate was different, even if they belonged to the same Main Star, the advanced classes they obtained would have subtle differences. Therefore, the Astral Palace’s shop only recorded some of the more common class paths, such as Main Stars like The Celestial Ruler, while those that were remote and obscure were not included.

Joo Joowon did not know whether he should be happy that he did not need to worry about his path ahead or troubled that his path had already been fixed. According to what was said on the forum, whether an Astral Diviner was strong or not depended entirely on their Main Star.

The Northern Dipper governed death, while the Southern Dipper governed life. Therefore, Astral Diviners whose Main Stars belonged to the Northern Dipper would usually have stronger offensive abilities, while those of the Southern Dipper might lean more toward support or possess more abilities that could help them preserve their lives.

As for the Celestial Fiend and Forsaken Star... it was in the Northern Dipper.

After thinking about it, Joo Joowon stopped worrying. With the destructive power of the Celestial Fiend and Forsaken Star, there was no way it could be considered weak. By the time he really had to consider these things, there might not necessarily be no way to solve the problem.

The stars did not remain unchanged forever either. In the beginning, it was the circumstances that created the hero, but in the future, there was no reason why the hero could not create the circumstances.

Hadn’t Byeol already broken free from its influence? Although, in Joo Joowon’s opinion, the price it had paid was still somewhat heavy.

After getting the information he wanted, Joo Joowon directly exited the faction interface. There would be plenty of time to learn about these things in the future, so there was no need to understand every single detail right now.

He had not forgotten what his original purpose had been.

But before that, he would first share the joy with Byeol and the others!
