The three calamities are celestial calamity, earthly calamity, and human calamity. By that time, Baobao was only seventeen, but she had already endured the celestial and earthly calamities, with only the final human calamity remaining. However, this last trial was related to the will of heaven and was almost certainly a situation that would lead to death unless they could find six men with uniquely fateful birth charts and bind them together with Baobao. In doing so, perhaps they could help break Baobao’s conclusive death trial. The nun mumbled cryptically, and at first meeting, Dong Feiyan had some doubts about her, always feeling that she seemed like a charlatan. But this person could calculate all kinds of encounters in one’s life just by counting on her fingers, predicting everything accurately and without error, including even those things that only Dong Feiyan knew or had long forgotten; the nun could deduce them all. In any case, this person was truly mystical, and Dong Feiyan felt that the nun might actually be a demi-goddess. Afterwards, Dong Feiyan considered for a long time, and decided to follow what the nun had said, collecting the birthdates of some men. Upon examining these birthdates, the nun pointed to one of them and said, "These six men happen to be brothers. The eldest has the destiny of Tian Quan, with the temperament of a hero, yet is dragged down by his blood relatives. His life is difficult to endure; he will either die or go mad." "The second brother has the destiny of Tian Xuan, originally fated to die young; however, due to human effort, it’s remarkable that he has lived until now. But looking at the second brother’s birth chart, his lifespan is indeed short. He won’t live long." "The third brother, born with wealth, has the destiny of Tian Shu. This destiny is also known as the Greedy Wolf, which should bring him enormous wealth and prosperity, but he has offended someone of lower status who not only blocks his path to wealth but will also plot against him in the future, leading to an extremely tragic death." "This fourth brother will live a long life; a person of extreme martial prowess, born under Kai Yang’s command. But his life is marked by calamity, likely to be a figure who wades through a sea of corpses and blood. In his old age, he will be lonely and without companionship." "The fifth brother, under the destiny of Yu Heng, lacks water in his birth chart, with an excess of the fire element. He must be someone impulsive, and ultimately, this temperament will lead to his demise, likely to be a gruesome scene where he is shattered to pieces, dying without a complete corpse." "The sixth brother, this man has the destiny of Tian Ji, originally meant to enjoy fortune and rank, but he has tasted the suffering of life and death, separation and reunion. And I seem to see that this person is turned into a human pig, his limbs chopped off, eyes gouged out, deafened with copper poured into his ears, and made mute by a silencing drug poured down his throat, his tongue cut out so he cannot speak... Finally, he will be left to soak in a cold pool, unable to live or die, thus suffering tremendously." After the nun had said so much, Dong Feiyan still couldn’t understand. Although she was literate, she knew not much, but there was one thing she did understand. "If, as you say, none of the six brothers is good?" The nun spoke leisurely, "If these seven people come together, they would precisely be Tian Quan, Tian Xuan, Tian Shu, Kai Yang, Yu Heng, Tian Ji, and Yao Guang—the stars of the Big Dipper in the heavens!" "Yao Guang, also known as the Defeated Army, your daughter has the destiny of the Defeated Army. And what is the Defeated Army? A general who roams the world! All seven celestial stars are essential, and although each bears a cruel and defeated destiny, if the seven stars unite, they can complement and aid each other, possibly resolving their respective tribulations." "Heaven has its own will, and although I do not know what it would look like if the seven stars come together, I am certain that if you forsake these six celestial stars, your daughter is undoubtedly doomed. This final human calamity belongs to heavenly fate, and the will of heaven is most difficult to predict. Even if the seven stars of the Big Dipper are assembled, there is only the slimmest chance of survival. Whether they live or die is all up to the destiny of these seven people." After this event, Dong Feiyan thought for a long time.
