Becoming a Saint Seiya since the Age of Mythology

However, opening a dimensional portal is not actually a necessary condition for summoning the dead.

Because the souls of the dead are not subject to the same special constraints as the living.

For example, they can enter the underworld on their own.

The underworld is the final resting place of all the dead, and all the living automatically gain the right to enter the underworld after death.

In contrast, it is extremely difficult for the living to enter the underworld; they need to go through all sorts of methods.

The dream world is also a special place similar to the underworld.

For the living, only deities with divine authority related to dreams can freely enter and exit the dream world.

However, as another final resting place for the departed souls, the deceased also have the right to freely enter the dream world.

Of course, they are different from the gods of dreams; they can enter but not leave.

Based on this characteristic, Hakurei does not need to open a passage between the Dream World and the Underworld; he only needs to summon Heroic Spirits, who can then descend here using their authority as the dead.

"It was indeed my oversight!"

Having also grasped the key point, Hypnos nodded, then sneered, "But so what?"

"Do you really expect those losers who have already died once to help you defeat a god?"

He had already seen the heroic spirits that had descended upon the dream world land behind Hakurei, manifesting as phantom images of warriors dressed in holy armor.

Clearly, those were Saint Seiya warriors who had died in battle, reappearing before everyone as heroic spirits.

"They were indeed losers in the past!"

Bai Li didn't mince words, replying loudly, "But they won't be defeated forever!"

"This time, I will lead them to continue challenging you, the God of Sleep!"

"Wash away the defeats and humiliations we suffered in the last holy war!"

As he spoke, the old man raised his right hand high above his head, and the heroic spirits of the Saint Seiya behind him revealed their fierce fighting spirit. Then, they transformed into streams of silver light and gathered in the old man's palm, condensing into a gradually growing bluish-white ball of light that emitted an extremely terrifying fluctuation.

Even though they were far away from the battlefield, Wu Xin and the other two were still terrified and trembling with fear, as if a single touch could easily tear their bodies apart and shatter their souls.

"It really is the 'Tenryuha'!"

Wu Xin recognized the move his teacher used; it was the only one he hadn't yet mastered—the ultimate move of the Sekishiki series.

This is the only trick the old man can use as his last resort.

But just then, he heard Manigoldo's anxious voice beside him.

"Junior brother, prepare to attack! Use 'Netherworld Wave'!"

As he spoke, Manigoldo quickly gathered his cosmic power into his right hand.

"Now?"

Faced with this sudden reminder, Wu Xin was somewhat taken aback, but still followed the instructions and quickly gathered the power of his cosmos in his right hand.

However, he didn't quite understand where Manigoldo and his group's confidence came from.

He admitted that his teacher Hakurei's move was very powerful and could easily kill any Gold Saint. Even those who had reached the Eighth Sense would have to treat this move with caution.

But it was still far from enough against Hypnos, the god of sleep.

This is not about boosting others' morale while diminishing our own; rather, it is the result of Wuxin's careful analysis.

According to Master Hakurei, at the end of the last Holy War, the Gemini Gods arrived to greet Hades' soul, descending upon the battlefield with unparalleled power and instantly annihilating most of the Saints.

This is still thanks to the protection of the previous Athena goddess.

Without the protection of the goddess, it's likely that not a single Saint would have survived to the end in that Holy War.

Moreover, in the last Holy War, the Sanctuary also had elders left over from the Holy War before that, such as Aquarius Krestor and Libra Itia.

Those two were also extraordinary in strength, both having reached the eighth sense and possessing combat experience from the last Holy War, far surpassing the Gold Saints of Hakurei's generation.

Although the timing of the Twin Gods' attack was suspiciously opportunistic, the people of the Holy Domain had not completely lost their fighting power at that time, especially with so many powerful figures gathered together, their strength should not be underestimated.

Even so, the people of the Holy Land still suffered a crushing defeat in the face of the Twin Gods' offensive.

Although Master Bai Li's move is very strong now, it is no match for the group of strong opponents back then.

Therefore, even with the use of the 'Tenryuha', Hakurei-sensei's strength is still far behind that of Hypnos.

Wu Xin was somewhat confused as to why Manigoldt believed this was the best time for them to make their move.

On the battlefield, after gathering the power of the previous generation of Saint Seiya's heroic spirits, Hakurei put his hands together and pushed the giant ball of light out.

"Feel the resentment and anger that has accumulated for over two hundred years, Hypnos—"

"Accumulated Corpse Qi - Transformation Wave"

In an instant, the enormous ball of light, more than ten meters in diameter, hurtled towards Hakurei and the previous generation of Saints like a falling meteor, carrying with it the boundless fighting spirit of Hakurei and the previous generation of Saints.

Wherever the ball of light passed, the earth cracked, space shattered, and endless dimensional turbulence surged forth, crushing the ravaged land into dust and leaving behind bottomless ravines.

Hypnos did not back down; the challenge of mortals had no right to frighten him.

"May you forever remain trapped in this dream world!"

"A fool who dares to challenge the gods!"

"Eternal Sleep"

He clasped his hands together, forming a lotus shape, and then a beam of pale blue light shot out from the lotus.

Unlike the extreme destructive power of the Transcendent Wave, this move by Shupunos is particularly bizarre.

Wherever the beam of light touched, the shattered earth instantly froze, and even the fractured space seemed to have been paused.

"Sleep? His power can actually put inanimate matter into a slumber?" Wu Xin was horrified.

“No, that’s no longer a dormant power! It’s a power that silences and stops everything, a realm that’s almost time and space!” Manigoldo, standing beside him, also looked serious.

Hearing this, Wuxin felt even more worried.

He didn't believe that the 'Tenryopa' could withstand Hypnos's attack.

But at that moment, a golden spear tip silently emerged from the void and, taking advantage of Hypnos's overconfidence, stabbed down from behind.

Puff!

Caught completely off guard, Shupunos was struck through the chest by this sudden attack.

Author's Note on the Launch of Chapter 149

It's back on sale again without me even realizing it, so I'll write a review as usual.

This book is mainly based on Greek mythology, so it's quite different from the previous Saint Seiya book. You don't need to worry that I'll include any strange or unusual things.

Furthermore, the main character might be somewhat of a background character, but their strength is insufficient, so this is the best they can do for now; getting some assistance is already their limit.

However, this volume of the story is nearing its end, and the sealing of the god of sleep is imminent.

Once this volume is finished, it will be time for him to awaken his seventh sense and become a key player in the Holy Land.

In the Saint Seiya arena... only those with the strength of Gold Saints can be the main force; those below Gold Saints are just cannon fodder.

As for the Saint Cloths, I personally don't really agree with changing them casually.

why?

I know that gold is definitely better than silver, but the Saint Cloth is like an identity badge, and it's not good to change it casually.

For example, when we mention Manigoldo, we immediately think of Cancer; when we mention Hasgard, we think of Taurus.

Their Saint Cloths are their symbol, containing extremely distinct personal characteristics.

The same applies to the protagonist.

When people mention him, they immediately think of the Giant Saint, but what if he wore a different Saint Cloth?

His title lost its uniqueness and became less eye-catching.

If he started from the Bronze level and upgraded his armor piece by piece, he would have at least three Saint Cloths.

As everyone knows, he belongs to the Cancer lineage, so his final choice of Saint Cloth will definitely be the Cancer Gold Cloth.

But if we replace it with Cancer, will people think of him first when they mention Cancer in the future?

No, most people would probably think of Manigoldo more.

Furthermore, in Kurumada's Saint Cloth concept, the Saint Cloths themselves have the potential for growth and evolution, so changing Saint Cloths would be somewhat of a waste of this concept.

Therefore, I will let the Giant Saint evolve later, gradually bringing it to the level of the Gold Cloth and God Cloth.

Okay, enough of that.

The book will be available today, and there will be five chapters later. That's all for now!

Hope you all support!

Chapter 150 Goddess of War

"Um--"

Because of the pain, Hypnos couldn't help but let out a muffled groan.

He immediately realized what was happening and mobilized a portion of his inner power, concentrating it on the wound in an attempt to expel the golden spear that had pierced through his body.

But then, a powerful divine force was released from the golden spear, instantly shattering the power of his gathered cosmos and further suppressing its operation.

"Athena—"

Upon recognizing that divine power, Xiupu Norston was speechless.

At the same time, he recognized that the golden spear that had pierced him was the famous 'Spear of Victory'.

Legend has it that this divine spear possesses the power to lead wars to victory.

The moment it strikes, the victory is already decided.

At the same time, behind Hypnos, a girl holding a golden spear and wearing a white gauze dress appeared.

Sasha, who infiltrated the dream world in the form of a soul, is the reincarnation of Athena.
