Becoming a Saint Seiya since the Age of Mythology

Perhaps it was the stimulation of pain that sparked a flash of inspiration in him, and he immediately had an idea.

He immediately dispersed his consciousness, attempting to break free from the tentacles' bindings in an invisible manner.

However, after he transformed his consciousness into a misty, gaseous state, he found that he still could not break free from the restraints.

An invisible barrier was released from the tentacles, completely trapping him in the middle.

"A barrier??"

It was only at this moment that Wuxin realized that these tentacles not only relied on their binding ability to grab people, but also had the ability to create barriers to trap people.

Moreover, even when he transformed into an invisible form, the terrifying heads on those tentacles could still devour him.

They seemed to be greedily inhaling some sweet fragrance, gulping down his intangible form.

"Do not--"

Wu Xin was terrified but helpless, and could only watch as his formless body rapidly shrank as they devoured him.

As he was consumed, his consciousness grew weaker and weaker, becoming increasingly blurred.

Finally, he fell into a complete coma.

At this moment, Iphigenia also used her tentacles to drag the invisible entity that had been transformed from the mind to her front.

"Come, merge with me, become a part of us!" She gazed at the shrinking, invisible gas, a dreamy smile on her face.

At that moment, a faint golden light suddenly flashed at the center of Wuxin's formless body.

Although it was very faint, Iphigenia was certain she hadn't misread it.

"what is that?"

She was somewhat confused, but instead of stopping her devouring, she accelerated the process.

She wanted to see what else was hidden deep within Wuxin's consciousness.

Soon, that pale gold color appeared.

It was something like a grain of gold dust, but it was even finer than ordinary sand, so fine that it couldn't even be described as sand; it was clearly a speck of dust!

A golden speck of dust!

Although it was small, Iphigenia sensed a faint divine aura emanating from it.

"Divine particles left behind by a god or demigod?" She immediately recognized the nature of the golden dust.

"This is really good stuff!"

To the gods, this thing is like roadside dust, not worth paying attention to at all, but to a mortal like her, it is an excellent tonic.

As long as it can be devoured, one's own fragmented consciousness can also grow rapidly and be repaired to a certain extent, eventually growing into a true independent spirit.

Not only her, but even the rest of the lingering remnants that were part of her body felt the fatal attraction to it.

Although they were limited by their own understanding and did not recognize what it was, their instincts told them that swallowing that golden dust would be of great benefit to them.

In an instant, the numerous remnants of the spirits went berserk, all rushing towards that golden speck of dust, opening their mouths wide in an attempt to swallow it.

Seeing this, Iphigenia did not hesitate and joined the scramble for it as well.

But at that moment, perhaps stimulated by the scramble of many lingering resentments, the originally stable golden dust suddenly burst forth with a dazzling golden radiance.

The golden radiance was not only dazzling, but also possessed terrifying destructive power, like golden swords that instantly pierced through Iphigenia and its many lingering tentacles.

"Ahhh-"

Caught completely off guard, the Moon Priestess and the many lingering spirits screamed in unison and involuntarily loosened their control over Wuxin.

Chapter 226 A Flash of Inspiration

At the same time, Wuxin, who was in a state of unconsciousness, suddenly awoke.

A mysterious force awakened him.

"I'm not dead yet?" he asked in astonishment.

Soon, he also noticed that the power that had awakened him came from a golden particle, as tiny as a speck of dust, yet it released a powerful force.

At that moment, the weakness in his consciousness vanished, and he was filled with vitality once again.

"escape!"

Without the slightest hesitation, taking advantage of the fact that Iphigenia and her lingering tentacles were severely injured and the barrier was left unattended, he instantly gathered his power and transformed the remaining invisible consciousness into a sharp arrow that broke through the blockade and escaped.

He only stopped temporarily after establishing a safe distance again.

"What should we do next?"

Looking at his consciousness, which was less than one-tenth of its original size, Wuxin was somewhat worried.

In a sense, he is now a remnant soul. If it weren't for the blessing of that golden particle, it would be difficult for him to even maintain a conscious self, let alone expel Iphigenia, who has invaded his body.

Suddenly, he sensed something within Iphigenia's body drawing him in, making him instinctively want to take it back.

"That's... the part of my consciousness that was devoured?" Wu Xin suddenly realized.

Moreover, with the blessing of that golden particle, he vaguely sensed that his devoured consciousness had not been digested by his opponent, but rather had merged into the opponent's body in a fusion form.

"Perhaps... I can still recall them?" Wu Xin suddenly had a thought.

Coincidentally, he was also skilled at using the power of death, and summoning spirits was one of his specialties.

It seems that recalling the other consciousness that already resonates with him to some extent should be even less of a problem.

At this moment, Iphigenia, who had been severely injured by the golden particles, finally recovered.

"I didn't expect that not only is your physical body excellent, but your soul is also quite remarkable!"

She gazed greedily at Wuxin, involuntarily licking her rotting lips, and said, "Although some unexpected things happened, the outcome will still not change!"

"Stop struggling, accept your fate, Saint Seiya of Athena!"

"Ten Thousand Souls Devour the Body"

After saying that, she launched another attack, releasing countless terrifying tentacles from her body.

Faced with the attack, Wu Xin did not dodge this time. He transformed his consciousness back into human form, took a deep breath, and, following that mysterious feeling, solemnly pointed a finger forward.

"Come back, everyone!"

"Sekishiki - Netherworld Wave"

Six streams of corpse energy flew from his fingertips, like six agile silver snakes, heading towards the endless tentacles.

Iphigenia didn't care at all and immediately summoned six tentacles to block the six streams of corpse energy.

However, just as she was about to crush Wuxin's accumulated corpse energy as before, she suddenly felt something was wrong with her body.

The consciousness that had just been devoured by him, originating from Wuxin, suddenly became restless.

"not good!"

She realized something was wrong and hurriedly tried to suppress the restlessness in her mind.

In fact, she herself is composed of countless lingering resentments, and situations like this happen almost every moment; it's commonplace for her.

But at this critical moment, the consciousness of the devoured opponent suddenly became restless, which was clearly not a coincidence.

She absolutely cannot let this happen.

However, it was too late.

Whether it was due to the blessing of that golden particle, the special connection between the ego and the consciousness, or the characteristics of the corpse energy technique, Wu Xin was able to successfully activate the part of his consciousness that had been devoured this time.

"Come back, all of you! Return to my side! Let us be one again!"

At his summons, his devoured consciousness surged from within Iphigenia, coordinating with the accumulated corpse energy to launch a coordinated attack from within and without, instantly shattering Iphigenia's tentacles.

Before his eyes, those shattered fragments of consciousness transformed into fireflies and flew out of the priestess's body, guided by the accumulated corpse energy, returning to him.

"Ah-"

Faced with this unexpected turn of events, Iphigenia's attack was broken, and she suffered a backlash once again. Completely unable to attack Wuxin again, she involuntarily let out a scream.

As the fragmented consciousness gradually returned, Wuxin gathered it back together, restoring it to a complete state of mind once again.

However, along with the corpse energy, what was recalled was not only his fragmented consciousness, but also the lingering resentment of other vengeful spirits within Iphigenia.

"How come even they were summoned?" Wu Xin was somewhat taken aback.

However, he also noticed that the vengeful spirits he had summoned were not as violent as he had imagined. Instead, they were like obedient children, allowing him to wrap them in corpse energy and command them at will.

"Perhaps... I can try that move?"

At this moment, Wuxin thought of the profound meaning of the accumulated corpse energy that he had never been able to master.

Teacher Bai Li once told him that the profound meaning of the accumulated corpse energy does not have many profound changes or connotations; it only involves the ultimate control and application of the accumulated corpse energy.

Although he didn't quite understand what was happening to him, his intuition told him that he seemed to have reached the threshold for using that move.

"However, with my strength, I am simply not strong enough to break the seal of the Moon Goddess and summon the heroic spirits from the outside world."

"If I can't summon the heroic spirits, I can't unleash the true power of that move at all!" Wuxin began to worry once again.

Not far away, Iphigenia had already restored order to the various resentments that had been swirling within it.

Having suffered several losses at Wuxin's hands, she could no longer suppress her anger.

Originally, resentment is a product of negative emotions, and naturally it's not something to be proud of.

She was only able to maintain her identity and become the main consciousness of all resentment by relying on the traces of divine aura left by her original body.

Now, having suffered repeated losses at Wuxin's hands, she could no longer suppress her brutal nature and roared as she lunged at Wuxin.

"Damn brat! I'll tear your soul apart!"

At that very moment, noticing the tentacles flying around Iphigenia, Wuxin suddenly had an inspiration.

"Although I cannot break the seal of the Moon Goddess and summon heroic spirits from the outside world to serve me, I can directly draw upon her to summon those resentful remnant souls to control!"

"In this way, we can not only strengthen ourselves by using the power of those resentful remnant souls, but also weaken our opponents!"

Thinking of this, he was immediately excited. He retreated and dodged while once again gathering the power of his cosmos.

Soon, Wu Xin finished accumulating power and pointed a finger at Iphigenia, who was hot on his heels.
