The Destiny Arc is the fourth arc of The Adventure of Dai. It covers the origins of the Dragon Knight and the battle against Baran and the Dragon Legion.

Avan's special chapter is generally included with this arc in volume publications.

In the 2020 volume series, it is combined with the Holy Sword Arc into a Dragon Knights saga.
