Chapter 472: Volume 10: Thunderous Movements and Winds Rising, - 7: Rebirth of the Devil
The withered and flourishing face slowly merged into the entire forcefield coming from the sky, the power of the Starry Sky was being incessantly guided and converged here, the fragile body on the wheelchair seemed suddenly to become elusive and indistinct, from afar, the body embraced by the interplay of light and shadows seemed somewhat blurred, even showing tendencies toward transparency.
The Great Prophecy Spell was not some particular magic spell, rather it was a general term for a capability, however, the conditions required to cast this kind of magic were exceptionally demanding, the requirements for magic ability were enough to discourage any Mage or even Archmage from entertaining such fantasies, and more stringent yet was the mental fortitude required for casting this spell, meaning the conditions for spiritual power were extraordinarily strict.
After all, to know the future through time and space involves performing an almost unimaginable spell, if your mental strength is insufficient you would drive the Mage into madness right away, and perfect prevention measures and protection are also indispensable and high expectations.
To peer into the divine will was inherently an act against the heavenly order and was certain to attract divine punishment, and at this time, the caster was at their most vulnerable, without powerful Divine Artifacts and Sacred Artifacts to resist the Heavenly Destruction Power, the instantaneous force was enough to obliterate both body and spirit of the caster.
On the whole continent, those who could cast such a spell were conservatively estimated to be no more than three people, His Holiness the Pope not included, of course.
The immense energy slowly soaked into his entire body, Julius II could feel how potent the power guided through his Star Magic was, and the slightest deviation in his balance would instantly turn his frail body into dust.
However, he was not worried, he had already experienced this Great Prophecy Spell twice, though the last time he performed it was already more than a decade ago, the uncertainty of the continent’s situation at that time compelled him to cast it, and now it seemed he was becoming increasingly skeptical, increasingly lacking in confidence — so much so that he was spurred by some premonition in his Spiritual Sense to enact the Great Prophecy Spell, perhaps he was indeed too old and it was time to pass on the mantle?
A fleeting thought quietly flowed through the heart of Julius II.
