On the Three Stars Day, during the celebration of worshiping the gods, the great prophet Mukade of the Kuomu Beast Tribe stared at the sky covered by dark clouds, feeling extremely sad.
According to historical records, every four years at this time, three suns would rise simultaneously on the other side of the sea, forming a strange spectacle of three suns rising into the sky.
But the situation this time was extremely different. There were nothing but dark clouds in the sky, and a powerful thunderstorm could be vaguely seen condensing inside.
Such bad weather has lasted for hundreds of days, so that the platypuses of recent generations have never seen the sun from birth to death. The occasional heavy rains have posed a huge challenge to the survival and reproduction of the tribe.
Therefore, the great prophet Mukade has been waiting, waiting for the miracle of three days of soaring into the sky to dispel all the haze. But unfortunately, looking at the current celestial phenomena, Mukade suddenly realized that his idea would most likely fail.
Noisy 'grunting sounds' continued to echo along the coast. The broad-eyed beasts that gathered nearby and came to participate in the celebration were also somewhat uneasy. They stared at Mukade and others on the stage, expecting these prophets who had received divine revelation to give an explanation.
In particular, when will the gradually spreading thunderstorm weather subside? Good weather is required for hunting, fishing, animal husbandry and planting.
The great prophet Mukade stared at the anxious broad-eyed beast below with his empty eyes. After pondering for a moment, a loud voice soon rang out.
"This is a warning from God, my people!"
"Storms are the gods' cries, and thunder is the gods' wrath..."
"Obviously... this kind of weather is a punishment from the great god to the entire tribe!"
The words of the great prophet caused an uproar among the hundreds of thousands of broad-eyed beasts gathered here. Fear condensed in the minds of every broad-eyed beast. From time to time, someone nervously asked the great prophet what they had done wrong to offend the gods and thus bring down their anger.
The great prophet Mukad raised his scepter high to stop the noise, then raised his voice again and said compassionately, "The reason for this divine punishment is that there is a crack in our faith..."
"As the tribal territory and population expand, more and more broad-eyed beast tribes have deviated from their original intentions, and even disregarded the protection and guidance of the gods, provoking wars between tribes and wantonly creating killings... This is a betrayal of the grace of the gods!"
Mukade became more and more excited as he spoke, and the broad-eyed beasts gathered on the beach were soon immersed in it. They had no doubt about the words of the great prophet, because when the storm appeared and spread, the tribal war was at its most intense.
However, at this moment, a burst of violent shouting abruptly interrupted the great prophet's passionate words.
"Lies, these are all lies!"
The sharp and piercing sound instantly attracted everyone's attention, and the great prophet Mukade was no exception. He was extremely shocked and angry that someone dared to refute his words in public.
To everyone's surprise, the person who spoke was the leader of a large tribe.
"Do you want to question God's revelation, Shago?" The great prophet Mukade also recognized it. Although he was blind, the wind would always tell him the answer.
Mukade's rebuke was harsh enough to be described as blasphemy in the Kuromu tribe. Blasphemy was an unforgivable crime, and even the tribal leader would be subject to the most severe punishment.
However, Shago was not afraid at all and shouted angrily, "There is no divine revelation at all, Mukade! You deceived us! You deceived everyone..."
Mukade's calm expression suddenly became extremely ugly.
According to the prophets, magic is a gift from God, a gift given to the most devout believers. Only by offering the most precious eyes of the broad-eyed beast can one be qualified to learn and master it.
And now Shago has mastered magic without any guidance or God's grace from looking directly at the three suns! Seeing the flames erupting from Shago's palm, all the broad-eyed beasts present were horrified. Even some prophets had expressions of disbelief on their faces, and a crack appeared in their firm faith.
They gave up their proud farsightedness in order to gain the ability to control fire. Now Shago told them that they didn't need to endure the unspeakable pain. How could they accept this?
"Lies, these are all lies!" "There is no divine revelation at all. These prophets misinterpreted the divine will and angered the gods!" "They are the blasphemers!"
The leaders of other tribes also took the opportunity to attack, shouting loudly, and then led their guards to charge towards the platform.
This was undoubtedly a premeditated change of power.
Ever since the first prophets witnessed the miracles, theocracy has completely taken precedence over secular power. Even the appointment and dismissal of the leaders of the major tribes must obey the will of "God".
In the past, many tribal leaders were afraid of the power of God and could only swallow their anger. Now they have finally waited for this opportunity!

The bad weather has made the broad-eyed beasts living on this continent miserable, and the dozens of prayers and sacrifices of the prophets have not had any effect. Doubts have been heard one after another, so this grand celebration has become the best opportunity! "Kill these rebels for me!" The great prophet Mukade waved his scepter in anger, spraying a strong stream of fire, killing several broad-eyed beast warriors who were approaching.
However, the other prophets, who usually lived a life of luxury, were caught completely off guard.
Due to the bad rainy weather, the air became extremely humid, and the power of the flames was greatly weakened. Many prophets were stabbed to the ground by sharp bone spears before they could even cast magic...
Blood and wailing continued to echo along the coast, and tens of thousands of corpses dyed the nearby sea red.
In fact, this scene did not only happen on the coast. The leaders who had been prepared also arranged people in the tribe to kill the prophets' followers.
However, even if they seized the initiative at the grand celebration, they could not undermine the huge influence of these prophets who spoke in the name of God on the tribe.
An epic war soon broke out on this continent. In just a dozen days, the powerful alliance of the broad-eyed beast tribes instantly fell apart and fell into a protracted civil war.
The endless killing also gave birth to a huge amount of soul power. An unimaginably powerful energy was filling every corner of this continent.
At this time, Lin En's action of gathering the priesthood was also nearing its end...
