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

"Senior Suzaku, could this seemingly real prison be the Dream Realm?"

"Well, that should be right."

Upon hearing this, Suzaku looked solemnly at the Dream Realm and said with great concern:

"Jia Long must be fighting in this dream world right now! Being in such a strange place and facing such a powerful opponent, it must be a fierce and bitter battle. I wonder if this little man can hold on!"

"I believe he can pull through!"

Chang'e said with a firm gaze, "Although Jia Long may seem carefree and unruly, he is actually a man of great pride. Even if it's just for the sake of his dignity, he will definitely survive this fierce battle and defeat his opponents, leaving them screaming in agony..."

Upon hearing this, Zhuque looked at Chang'e in surprise:

"Chang'e, why do you have so much confidence in this young man?"

"A woman's intuition!"

Chapter 254 A Bountiful Harvest! The True God Slayer

Within the dream world.

"You despicable, shameless, and vile bastard, I, Pandora, will never let you get away with this again!"

With a hateful curse, Pandora's beautiful face still held a trace of lingering emotion as her newly donned Eternal Night Armor flashed and her figure vanished into the void.

"Next time?!"

Watching Pandora disappear, Jia Long, who had been quite satisfied, suddenly felt that something was amiss.

Although Pandora's behavior is similar to that in her spiritual world.

But this is reality!

Pandora was not only conscious, but the Eternal Night Armor she was wearing was not taken off by Jia Long. If she really wanted to escape just now, Jia Long felt that he had no way to stop her... right?

"Sigh, I was so blinded by her beauty that I didn't notice anything unusual about her."

After a wise man's regret.

Jia Long, clutching his back, stood up wearily.

"Well, she is, after all, the most beautiful woman created by the gods. But why do I have this feeling that I've lost out, even though I'm not at a disadvantage?"

"Uh~"

……

Inside the Palace of the God of War.

Without the support of the Dream God's power, the dream world, which was both real and illusory, could no longer be maintained and began to gradually collapse and disintegrate.

"He won!"

Upon seeing this, Chang'e and Zhuque were overjoyed.

Chang'e, in particular, was extremely excited: "I knew he would win, a man like him..."

"Yes, he really is a tough little man!"

Suzaku was also deeply moved.

Judging by the time, Jia Long fought inside for more than an hour. To dare to engage in a protracted battle with a god and win is a feat that cannot be described simply as toughness.

Boom~

As the dream realm collapsed, Jia Long's golden figure appeared. Although he was exhausted and his Saint Cloth was covered in bloodstains, this did not diminish his imposing image in the eyes of the two women.

The two women couldn't contain their excitement and went to greet them.

"Jia Long, did you really defeat that guy?"

"Ah."

"It must be very hard, right?"

"Ugh, I'm tired!"

"Just tired?"

"This one……"

"Jia Long, it seems Chang'e was right. You are indeed a man who will never back down! That must be why you were able to defeat the God of Dreams, right?"

"Huh, you're asking about the God of Dreams?!"

"Aren't you talking about the God of Dreams?"

"Uh...it's him."

Jia Long didn't mention Pandora; let their foolishness fade away with the wind.

He appeased the curiosity of Chang'e and Zhuque.

Jia Long focused his gaze on the scattered fragments of Chi You's soul within the space. These fragments, devoid of vitality and seemingly in a state of slumber, were clearly attacked by the Hypnos Mirror Image.

Jia Long summoned all the stars in the heavens to extract all the divine power from these fragments of divine souls, and then sent Chi You's divine soul into the Nibelungen Ring.

At this point, Jia Long had obtained all the divine souls he desired.

Besides Night Owl Patita, Jia Long obtained a total of eleven divine souls on the third level of the Demon Suppression Tower. Adding to the divine souls of Medusa and Indra that he had obtained before, the number of gods he had sealed was as high as thirteen.

He can be called a true god-slayer!

Of course, Jia Long also knew that this was because none of the gods in the Demon Suppression Tower had the ability to resist. In fact, the only god he defeated in this tower was the Dream God, and he only managed to win by using the Hypnos Mirror Image.

His true level of understanding is still far from that of a deity.

Jia Long has a clear understanding of this.

However, this did not diminish his joy at the gains he had made. The rewards from this trip to the Demon Suppression Tower far exceeded Jia Long's expectations.

He seemed to see the twelve golden lions' ultimate roar beckoning to him...

After sealing Chi You, Jia Long and his two companions left the Palace of the God of War and summoned the Howling Celestial Dog, who was frolicking outside. The three of them and the dog prepared to leave the third level of the Demon Suppression Tower.

However, at that moment, the sky inside the third layer suddenly changed color, and a huge eye broke through the void and appeared.

This giant eye that suddenly appeared was so large that it almost occupied the entire sky, and the divine power contained within it seemed to dominate this world. When it was open, it was daytime; when it was closed, it was night, giving people a feeling that it was impossible to resist.

"It's the Yin spirits who guard the prison; they've finally arrived."

Just as Jia Long became wary, Zhu Que showed a respectful expression and indicated to Jia Long and Chang'e that they were allies.

Sure enough, the giant eye's gaze softened as it swept over the immortal robes of Jia Long and the other two.

Then a majestic voice resounded through the void.

"My fellow warriors, I am very pleased that you were able to defeat the Dream God on your own. I thank you for your help in reinforcing the Demon Suppression Tower this time."

"Senior King of Wheels, you're too kind. This is a mission that our Biyou Palace has inherited since ancient times!"

The Vermilion Bird seemed to recognize the giant eye and immediately responded respectfully upon hearing the voice.

"It's good that you still remember your mission, but you won't need to come back in ten years."

Why did you say that, senior?

"Because this Demon Suppression Tower can't hold out for another ten years. After ten years, we will be reduced to ashes along with the Demon Suppression Tower. And with the appearance of the nine stars in alignment, the gaze of the abyss is destined to arrive!"

"?!"

"Celestial Warriors, depart! Remember, from this day forward, your mission is no longer to reinforce the Demon-Suppressing Tower, but to prepare for the Holy War and do your utmost to prevent the alignment of the nine stars..."

Just as Jia Long and the other two were completely baffled, King Yama stopped talking and his giant eye disappeared in an instant as the void closed.

It was as if he had never existed.

The sky above the third level cleared up again.

Jia Long and the other two looked at each other in bewilderment. This man called King of the Wheel had come and gone inexplicably, and what he said was even more inexplicable.

"Senior Suzaku, what did King Yama mean by what he just said?"

"Senior King Yama was a powerful human who entered this Demon Suppression Tower a very, very long time ago. Their inner universe has merged with the Demon Suppression Tower, giving them near-immortality within the tower. That's why they have survived until now, and that's why they are called the Yin Gods who suppress the prison!"

Seeing the curiosity on Jia Long and Chang'e's faces, Zhuque explained:

"Within this Demon-Suppressing Tower, there are ten powerful beings like King Yama. Their duty is to suppress the demonic stars and divine souls within the tower, while also guarding against the abyss beneath the tower spying on the earth. This abyss is closely related to the gods and the upcoming Holy War..."

"In short, it's very complicated, and I don't really understand it either. Let's talk about it after we get out!"

Zhuque couldn't explain it clearly at the moment, and since the first passage had already been opened, she decided to wait until she got out before discussing it with Jia Long and the others in detail.

Just as the three people and the dog were walking towards the time portal.

Pandora, who had left earlier, had already returned to the second floor ahead of them.

"Lady Pandora!"

Chapter 255 Departure! The Golden Saint Dog

"Lady Pandora!"

Seeing Pandora return safely, all the demons breathed a sigh of relief.

However, when they saw Pandora's exhausted and disheveled appearance, the demon stars' hearts clenched again, and they all showed expressions of deep concern.

"Lady Pandora, you encountered that damned Saint Seiya and even fought him?"

"Ah."

"You've successfully assassinated him?"

"No."

"Did you fail? It's alright, as long as you're alright. It's all our fault for being incompetent, unable to enter the third level, and forced to watch you risk your life alone to fight that Saint Seiya. As guardians, we are truly ashamed!"

"Don't blame yourself. This has nothing to do with you. Besides, even if you went to the third floor, you wouldn't be able to help me."

"How could we not be able to help you? Even if we are limited in our abilities and cannot be of assistance, we can still cheer you on from the sidelines!"

"Well, I'm tired, I'll head back now. I'll leave this place to you."

Unable to withstand the Demon Star's harassment, Pandora gave a few simple instructions and then turned and left with a languid expression.
