Becoming a Saint Seiya since the Age of Mythology

On the other hand, after receiving the second holy sword made by Sasha, Hakurei immediately prepared to set off.

"Brother, Death has been plotting for a long time, so we must not be careless!" Saiqi solemnly warned.

"Don't worry, I'll be careful!" Bai Li slung the holy sword over his shoulder and nodded.

Then, he turned around, concentrated his inner power at his fingertips, and pointed forward.

"Sekishiki - Netherworld Wave"

Streams of silver energy flew from his fingertips, quickly disappearing into the void ahead, then finding the spatial node connecting to the Yellow Springs, and further connecting it.

Immediately, a dimensional portal leading to the underworld opened.

He had already made his plan. Given the current situation, it would be extremely difficult to directly approach the Yellow Springs Rift from above, so he chose to start from Yellow Springs Hirasaka.

Bypassing the Specters' frontal defenses from Yomotsu Hirasaka, approach the Yomotsu Rift from behind.

While the underworld side is unlikely to be foolish enough to completely abandon its defenses, the defensive forces behind them will inevitably be relatively weaker when they concentrate their efforts on protecting the ground array.

That was also the best place for him to strike.

"Lord Sasha, I'm off!"

After taking one last look at the girl seeing him off, Bai Li walked into the dimensional portal without turning back.

When he emerged from the dimensional portal again, the scene before him had changed.

The once bright temple has vanished, replaced by a dark and gloomy land where countless undead and zombies roam.

He has entered Yomotsu Hirasaka.

Looking at the familiar scene before him, he couldn't help but sigh, "It seems like it's been a long time since I last entered the Yellow Springs, hasn't it?"

"Coming back here again really brings back some memories, haha!"

At this point, he couldn't help but shake his head and chuckle.

Looking up at the sky again, a crack nearly a hundred meters long appeared in the gray sky, as if it had been violently torn open from the outside. Endless dimensional chaos flowed in from the void, further accelerating the expansion of the crack.

"Just as Lord Sasha said, it is not an easy task to make the Holy Domain sink into the Yellow Springs! Judging from the current situation, it will take at least some time before that crack can expand to a size large enough to accommodate the Holy Domain falling into the Yellow Springs!" Bai Li immediately made a judgment.

A crack nearly a hundred meters long is very long and large to a person, but it is too small for the vast size of the Holy Land. It probably couldn't even accommodate a temple falling in.

"But the rift to the underworld is far away in the sky, how am I supposed to get up there?" Bai Li was immediately worried.

With his strength, he could easily leap up if he put all his strength into it, but that would be too conspicuous.

Unless the Specters are blind, they will definitely notice his movements.

The real challenge lies in how to infiltrate it silently.

Suddenly, a rumbling sound came from the abyss not far away, as if some enormous creature was about to rush from the underworld into the Yellow Springs.

"what is that?"

Bai Li was startled and quickly concealed his aura, hiding behind a large rock.

Soon, as the rumbling grew stronger, a warship three hundred meters long rose from the Yellow Springs Abyss that connected to the Underworld.

"Flying warships? The Underworld has such good things?" Bai Li was somewhat surprised.

Because he had never seen such a thing during the last holy war.

Seeing the flying warship continue to ascend into the sky, Bai Li immediately guessed, "It seems they are sending people to the Yellow Springs Rift."

"Perhaps this is where my opportunity lies."

"I just don't know if they will continue to travel back and forth."

Hidden behind the boulder, watching the flying warship rise higher and higher, the old man couldn't help but sigh softly.

If he could board the Specters' flying warship, approaching the Yellow Springs Rift silently would be a piece of cake.

The problem was that the flying warship appeared too suddenly, and he was completely unprepared, so he dared not board the ship rashly.

"Anyway, let's get started on the preparations!"

Then, the old man turned and left, entering the underworld from the abyss of the Yellow Springs.

After killing a lone ghost messenger on the outskirts of the underworld, Bai Li immediately stripped the ghost messenger of his black armor.

It was an extremely rudimentary battle suit, far inferior to even the lowest-grade Bronze Cloth, and similar to the leather armor worn by apprentice Saints.

However, as it is a specialty of the underworld, it is imbued with a strong aura of death, and ordinary people cannot wear it.

To be precise, it means that ordinary people who wear the armor will be corroded by the armor's strong aura of death, which is harmful to their health.

"If you're going to put on a show, you have to go all the way!"

The old man muttered to himself as he draped the black armor over his shoulders.

After everything was completed, he actively gathered the surrounding death aura and poured it into himself to completely cover up the living aura on his body.

After all this was done, he had completely transformed into a living, breathing ghost messenger from the underworld.

"Next, we just need to wait for an opportunity!"

After throwing out a ball of ghostly flames to dispose of the ghost messenger's corpse, the old man turned and returned to the Yellow Springs Hirasaka.

After waiting for a long time, the flying warship that had been parked in the sky landed again and slowly sank into the abyss of the underworld, returning to the netherworld.

Bai Li didn't rush to board the ship because he didn't know if the flying warship would fly to the Yellow Springs Rift again.

So he hid in Yomotsu Hirasaka and waited patiently.

After waiting for three days, a familiar rumbling sound came again from the abyss of the underworld.

"coming!"

The old man's eyes lit up immediately, and he was filled with excitement.

He finally got what he'd been waiting for; it wasn't in vain that he'd spent these past few days here.

Bai Li dared not waste any time. Before the warship had completely entered the Yellow Springs, he immediately found a secluded spot near the Yellow Springs Abyss and hid there.

He needed to board the ship quickly to minimize the risk of exposure.

Soon, as the rumbling grew louder, the massive bow of the flying warship emerged from the abyss of the underworld, followed by its enormous hull and tall mast.

This time, because of the closer distance, Hakurei could clearly see that there were many Specters and Oni warriors standing on the warship.

However, their attention was mostly drawn to the Yellow Springs Crack in the sky, and they paid little attention to the ground.

Taking advantage of the moment when the flying warship flew out of the Abyss of the Underworld and its deck was almost level with the ground, Bai Li exerted force with his feet and instantly rushed to a dark corner on the right side of the warship's deck.

"Success!"

After confirming that no one had noticed him, the old man finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Just then, a demon star dressed in underworld robes walked over, perhaps thinking the old man was hiding in a corner slacking off, and immediately kicked him.

"Damn it, what are you still doing hiding here!"

"Go clean up right now!"

"This is Lord Aiacos's most beloved vehicle. If Lord Aiacos finds out, he'll skin you alive!"

Chapter 244 Secret Infiltration

"Yes, yes, thank you for reminding me, sir!"

Bai Li didn't dare to retaliate. He immediately bowed and scraped, then hurriedly turned around and went back to work.

However, upon hearing what that demon star had just said, he couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

"Aiacos of Tianxiong Star? He's quite a formidable opponent!"

That's one of the three giants of the underworld, his strength is extraordinary.

More importantly, this generation of Tianxiong Star is very special; he was originally a Giant Saint from the Sanctuary.

Later, due to the awakening of the Demon Star and some other reasons, he ultimately chose to devote himself to the Underworld and leave the Holy Land.

Having experience as a Saint Seiya warrior means that Aiacos of the Celestial Hero Star has a certain understanding of the Saint Seiya warriors in the Sanctuary, which is very disadvantageous to the Saint Seiya side during battles.

Moreover, he had met the other party when the other party was still the Giant, so the other party must know him.

"It seems I'll have to be careful and avoid him this time!" Bai Li secretly became vigilant.

Immediately, Bai Li followed the ghost messengers, pretending to tidy up the ship, and carefully avoided the demon stars to prevent his disguise from being exposed.

The flying warship broke free of the Abyss of the Underworld and continued to climb, flying higher and higher, towards the rift in the Underworld in the sky.

As he drew closer, Bai Li sensed a powerful pressure emanating from the area surrounding the crack.

Upon closer inspection, it was clear that a massive magic array enveloped the Yellow Springs Rift, with endless mysterious inscriptions covering the surrounding area, continuously expanding the rift and inhibiting the space's self-repair.

In addition, Bai Li also faintly sensed a divine pressure within the magic array.

Without a doubt, this was the work of the gods; mortals could not open and support such a large spatial rift passage with their own power.

"Will Thanatos, the god of death, be inside?" Bai Li couldn't help but wonder to himself.

Just then, a ghost messenger approached and whispered, "Hey, don't get distracted! If those demon stars see you, you're dead!"

In the underworld, these ghost messengers are only slightly higher in status than those mindless, dead beings.

But sometimes, they also envy those who die in a daze.

Because in their dazed and confused state, even in the worst circumstances, they will not feel any resentment.

But these ghost messengers were different. Although they had gained clear intelligence, they could also clearly feel the oppression and bullying from above.

If you encounter a particularly cruel superior, it's common for dozens of ghost messengers to die every day.

After all, the underworld has no shortage of dead people.

With a casual scoop, you can immediately pull out a bunch of low-class ghost messengers like them.

"Thanks for reminding me!"

Upon hearing the reminder, Bai Li immediately nodded his thanks, then looked up and continued to focus on the cleaning work at hand.

On the central deck of the warship, there was a tall and large throne, upon which Tianxiong Star Aiacos lay lazily.

"This is our sixth rotation, isn't it? Still no news about the Saints lately?" he asked the person next to him with a hint of helplessness.
