Saint Seiya: This Gemini is a bit of a trap.

As the terrifying Queen of Flies, Veronica's strongest tactic is to fight with a swarm of demonic flies that combines offense and defense.

However, he forgot that there was also the Celestial Hound in the other dimension.

This dog loves eating fly larvae!

As soon as Veronica's magic fly formation appeared, the Celestial Hound, smelling the aroma, immediately began to drool. In order to eat the delicious magic flies, it even risked taking a string attack from the Celestial Beast Star Pharaoh, and then turned around and used the Celestial Dog Eats the Sun technique to swallow all of Veronica's magic flies into its mouth.

It got its fun, but it ruined Veronica's life. Jia Long's obsessive clone took the opportunity to step forward and unleashed a barrage of ferocious Illusionary Demon Emperor Fists on her face.

Although Veronica is immortal and can regenerate even if she is blown to pieces, she is not immune to mind control.

Under the attack of the Illusionary Demon Emperor Fist, illusions instantly flooded his mind, and he fell into a state of malfunction. As a result, he was easily defeated by Jia Long's obsession clone, who used the Heavenly Star Seal to intercept the power of his cosmos.

In an instant, only Lune of the Heavenly Hero Star and Pharaoh of the Heavenly Beast Star remained of the four Specters.

At this moment, Jia Long no longer needed to be distracted and could focus all his attention on dealing with Luni in front of him.

Listen to the mournful cry of shattered stars!

"Reincarnation~"

Faced with the focused Jalong, Luni felt the pressure increase and had no choice but to unleash his ultimate technique, transforming into a blazing fire demon.

Balrogs, also known as powerful demons in mythology, possess flames capable of burning souls, and no undead spirit can withstand the scorching heat of these flames.

With the Book of the Underworld, which allows him to look up the life stories of the dead, Luni is practically invincible in Hell!

However, the alternate dimension is not hell.

Jia Long is not a ghost.

Luni's ability to be the nemesis of the dead had no effect on Jalong. At this moment, his Balrog form was nothing more than a target covered in flames in Jalong's eyes.

"Shatter for me, Demon Emperor Starfall Fist!"

"Flaming Lash~"

With the power of the Flame Demon's Body, Luni's Flame Whip was almost doubled in power. Amidst the raging flames, his whip tore through space, carrying a sharp and shrill whistle like the howl of a demon, and pierced straight towards Jalong.

Like a bolt of fire and lightning, it contains the power of a microcosm of judgment!

However, no physical attack is immune to the Demon Emperor's Star-Powdering Fist. As countless energy celestial bodies fell from the sky, the all-destroying Demon Emperor's Star-Powdering Fist crashed headlong into the Flaming Whip.

boom!

Rumble~

The explosion of stars was like the collapse of the sky and the cracking of the earth. Under the bombardment of the power of the Pink Star Fist, the long whip, which was like a fire demon, shattered section by section, and then the rolling meteors completely covered Luni's entire body.

"what!"

The piercing screams were like the wailing of demons.

Under the endless, terrifying bombardment of stars, Luni's shrill screams were instantly shattered, turning into specks of purple light that drifted into the other dimension.

Then, half of his body was blasted into countless pieces of flesh that flew everywhere.

"Luni!"

This terrifying scene made Pharaoh, the only one still fighting, tremble with fear. Even the dull and oppressive music was affected, becoming broken and discordant.

"Gemini, you deserve to die!"

“Ever since Lord Anubis and the others left this world to escape the abyss, during the lonely years I guarded the pyramids alone, Luni was the only person in the world willing to listen to the music of my magic harp. He was the only confidant of my Sphinx Pharaoh!”

"Now you've made me lose my only confidant, it's unforgivable, unforgivable!"

"Gemini, listen to the symphony of death's balance~"

The music grew increasingly violent, making hearts pound. As Pharaoh played rapidly, countless black notes leaped from the magic harp as if they were tangible, coalescing in the air into a phantom image of a wolf-headed mummy shrouded in black mist.

"Today I will have Lord Anubis remove your heart and weigh it on the scales! The Curse of Balance!!"

With a fierce roar, the wolf-headed mummy flew towards Jalong, billowing black smoke. The boundless aura of death surrounded it, giving people an overwhelming sense of oppression, as if facing the Grim Reaper.

Anubis was the god of the dead of the Kemet people, the clan whose territory the pyramids were located in, and also the son of Osiris, the chief god of the Kemet. His status was equivalent to that of the god of death in the underworld.

In the ancient legend of Kemet, the heart records all the good and bad deeds a person has done in their lifetime.

When a human dies, Anubis, the god of the dead, takes out his heart and places it on the scales of Mat, the goddess of truth. If the weight of the human heart is equal to the weight of the feather of truth, then heaven will open its gates to the deceased.

If the heart becomes unbalanced, the deceased will be devoured by the beast god Amit and never be reincarnated!

Weighing the heart is a horrific death ritual; it is a judgment of one's conscience!

This trial ceremony is also the greatest mystery of Pharaoh, the Celestial Beast Star. In mythology, the Sphinx is the guardian beast of hell kept by Anubis, responsible for guiding the dead.

"Gemini, prepare yourself! No human can refuse the judgment of Anubis, the god of the dead..."

"Wang~"

Yes, no human can refuse Anubis's judgment, but Pharaoh, blinded by hatred, forgot that the Anubis he conjured had to get past the Celestial Hound before he could attack Jalong.

The Celestial Hound is a dog.

"Oh!"

Anubis's power clearly had no effect on Xiaotian Dog. Xiaotian Dog leaped and shattered Anubis's phantom, then pounced on the astonished Pharaoh and began to bite him viciously.

"Foolish fellow, trying to weigh a dog's conscience. If dogs had a conscience, there wouldn't be the saying that a dog ate one's conscience..."

Jia Long shook his head and walked towards Pharaoh, casually unleashing a Galactic Explosion on him.

Even without the Howling Celestial Dog, it wouldn't have been difficult for Jia Long to defeat Pharaoh.

In Jia Long's view, the so-called Curse of Balance is a kind of targeted mental attack. This kind of mental attack may be very effective against pure physical fighters, but it poses no threat to Jia Long.

In the manga, Orpheus's Lyre Sonata can solve the problem.

Not to mention Jia Long's Illusionary Demon Emperor Fist.

"Sealing of All Stars and Constellations!"

As starlight shone in the other dimension, the 1v4 battle came to an end, with Jia Long, his obsessive clone, his consciousness, and his dog achieving final victory.

At this point, all the demonic stars on the second floor of the Demon Suppression Tower had been cleared, and Jia Long had obtained enough power to perform the God Conferring Technique.

They also retrieved the Nibelungen Ring from Nezha, the Dragon-Binder.

Although there were some minor setbacks along the way, the journey was generally very smooth, and only one of Jia Long's three major goals for his Dao Domain trip remained.

"Repair the Mirror of Time!"

Chapter 239 An Attempt! My First Experience in Conferred Godhood

After taking stock of my haul, I found I had acquired four more pieces of Tianxing Sand, and each one was of very high quality.

Adding to the three from the Raptors Legion and the two from Nezha and Guangcheng, Jia Long has now obtained a total of nine Heavenly Star Sands on this trip to the Forest of Death.

He possessed over forty grains of stardust, nearly half of which were Seven Senses Heavenly Stardust, demonstrating that he single-handedly inflicted heavy losses on the Underworld Army.

"That's enough!"

Jia Long did not rush to leave the other-dimensional space, but instead fused all the star sand he had obtained into the Kang Jinlong Immortal Robe.

Now that Jia Long has donned the Gold Cloth again, this Golden Dragon Armor has regained its original function—a container for storing power. Moreover, its original form was a golden armband. Jia Long wears it above the arm guards of the Cloth, which not only does not affect his combat but also matches the Gold Cloth perfectly, making it look exceptionally beautiful.

"What powerful strength..."

As an unimaginably vast power of the microcosm merged in, the dragon-shaped patterns on Kang Jinlong's arm ring seemed to come alive, as if they were about to transform into a real five-clawed golden dragon and fly into the sky at any moment.

Quantitative changes lead to qualitative changes!

This power has far surpassed the limits of the seven senses. Jia Long felt that if he could use this power, he would be confident that he could even go toe-to-toe with a true god.

"Use the weak to defeat the strong!"

Jia Long gained a more personal understanding of the records on the statue of Nuwa. The idea of ​​this demon race predecessor in creating the seal of the stars in the heavens was similar to that of the goddess Athena's A.E.

"And this magic ring..."

After putting on the golden dragon armlet, Jalon took out the Ring of the Nibelungen.

The Ring felt to Jalong like a monster that would devour its prey, full of boundless ferocity. However, at this moment, it did not affect Jalong's mind; on the contrary, he remained calm.

It's like being full and digesting food.

"Is it because of Medusa's spirit?"

Hilda had previously stated that the Ring contained a seed from the World Tree, which needed to be fed with the souls of gods to grow into the legendary Spear of Eternity.

Jalong attempted to enter the Ring with his consciousness and indeed saw an incredibly large, ancient tree inside.

Beneath the tree lay a giant dragon, the very same Fafnir spirit that Jalong had encountered before, though this dragon seemed to have fallen into a deep sleep.

"These are the seeds of the World Tree?"

Jia Long didn't know much about the World Tree. What interested him more than the magical tree itself was that he actually saw Medusa's soul on the tree.

This powerful Medusa Queen, the mother of Pegasus, and an eternal and indestructible deity, now hung on the branches of the World Tree like a fruit. She appeared to have lost consciousness, and her body was gradually disappearing, as if she were being absorbed and transformed by the World Tree.

This tree is terrifying; it can actually absorb and transform divine souls!

However, this is exactly what Jia Long needs. Putting aside whether the World Tree can produce the Eternal Spear, its ability to transform divine souls alone is a great supplement to Jia Long's Heavenly Star Seal.

Defeat the gods, seize their power, create mirror images, and transform their souls!

With this magic ring, Jalong's methods for dealing with gods formed a closed loop, allowing him to completely control a god from beginning to end.

With this in mind, Jalon put the magic ring on his finger and took out the crystal coffin, inside which was a useless soul that he could use to test the effects of the magic ring.

"Come forth, Indra!"

"Humble humans..."

"Athena's Exclamation!"

After a perfectly executed A·E, Jia Long shattered Indra's soul into pieces. However, this time, Jia Long did not rush to seal the fragments of his soul into the crystal coffin. Instead, he used the natural power within the Golden Dragon Armband to condense an exceptionally large star.

"Sealing of All Stars and Constellations!"

As the stars appeared, the remaining divine power within the fragment of Indra's divine soul rapidly dissipated. Due to the excessive number of times it was refreshed, this divine power was quickly intercepted by all the stars in the heavens and transformed into a glittering stardust that fell to the ground.

Divine Star Sand!

Catching the stardust, Jia Long raised the magic ring again towards the countless fragments of divine souls scattered across the sky.
