Becoming a Saint Seiya since the Age of Mythology

Chapter 256 Countering Tianxiong

"No need to hold back anymore, let them witness the power of the 'Severance Array'!" Aiacos gestured to Celestial Beast Star.

"Yes!"

Farao's dejection vanished, replaced by brimming confidence.

Not far away, Leo Regulus, while on guard, whispered to Wuxin and the other, "I'll hold off Aiacos of Tianxiong Star, while you two work together to deal with Pharaoh of Tianshou Star as soon as possible."

"As long as you can deal with Pharaoh's return to support us as soon as possible, we will have a great chance to completely capture Tianxiongxing, one of the three giants of the underworld!"

“No problem, leave it to us!” Wu Xin nodded immediately.

Cardia had no objection and immediately said to Wuxin, "You will attack from the front, and I will support you from the side."

"Row!"

Wu Xin nodded again, and the three of them hastily decided on a new attack plan.

Just as they were preparing to launch a new attack, they discovered that Pharaoh of the Celestial Beast Star had walked to the center of the magic circle.

What is he trying to do?

Seeing this, Wu Xin was somewhat puzzled, and then quickly asked Scorpio next to him, "Does this magic array beneath our feet have any special functions?"

He had just returned to the Sanctuary and was completely clueless about the situation there. He could only place his hopes on Scorpio and the others who had fought the Specters earlier than him.

Cardia was also somewhat puzzled and said, "In these days, we have fought these Specters dozens of times, with each side winning and losing, but we have never seen them manipulate or use the magic circle in any way."

"Never mind, let's stop him first!" Without saying another word, Regulus charged straight toward Tianxiong Star.

Seeing this, Wu Xin and the other person exchanged a glance, and then immediately followed.

"Have you noticed anything? But, can you even get through this?!"

Aiacos sneered, then ignited his cosmos, emanating a chilling aura from his entire body.

"Watch out, he's about to use his ultimate move!"

Regulus quickly reminded him, and also gathered his cosmos power in his hands, preparing to meet the attack head-on.

Without hesitation, Wu Xin and the other two began to gather their strength, preparing for the upcoming fierce battle.

"Behold the immense power of the collision between the worlds of 'Galaxy' and 'Illusion,' you pathetic Saints!"

As his power reached its peak, Aiacos accelerated forward, blocking the way for everyone. Then, he raised both hands, palms overlapping, and unleashed his signature move, which he was very proud of.

"The Great Cosmic Illusion"

In an instant, an endless galaxy materialized before him, enveloping him in a dazzling array of stars. Behind him, one after another enormous, eerie demonic eye materialized, transforming into a distorted wall of demonic eyes.

That represents the power of the real Milky Way and starry sky, as well as the illusory and distorted power of mental illusion.

Under his control, the two forces collided, instantly unleashing a series of terrifying shockwaves.

The demonic eye shattered, the stars vanished, and a more terrifying turbulent current swept towards the three of them.

Seeing this, Wu Xin accelerated forward, overtaking Regulus who was at the front, and sent a message reminding him: "I will break his moves. You guys try and see if you can take him down in one fell swoop!"

With such a good opportunity, he decisively abandoned Farao of the Beast Star, which was originally his primary target.

In comparison, if one of the three giants could be taken down directly, that would be a huge win.

Caught off guard by Wu Xin's sudden change of plans, Regulus and his companion could only follow behind and cooperate as he began to act.

Seeing the terrifying turbulent currents sweeping towards him, Wu Xin's right fist glowed with a pale light, and he threw a punch without hesitation to meet it.

"Accumulated Corpse Qi - Soul Burial Break"

That pale glimmer of light collided instantly with the surging, turbulent currents.

To Regulus and the other man's surprise, the pale glow on Wuxin's fist, which looked very weak and could be easily blown out, stubbornly remained intact the moment it came into contact with the turbulent current.

What shocked them even more was that the pale glow seemed to have a special contagious quality, quickly penetrating, mixing, and merging into it in turn.

As Wu Xin's fist began, that pale color rapidly spread along the mixed turbulence.

"what!!!"

Aiacos, who was behind, was greatly surprised.

He never expected that his prized special move would be blocked by such a young Saint.

But what surprised him even more was yet to come.

As that pale glow rapidly spread, he was horrified to discover that he had lost control of the 'Cosmic Illusion,' and a sharp, piercing pain shot through his mind.

"I've been attacked by the backlash?" Aiacos was utterly astonished.

Before he could react, the mixed turbulence, which had been stained with pale light, exploded instantly, and a terrifying shockwave combining the powers of both surged back.

"Ahhh-"

Aiacos's Surplice shattered instantly, countless wounds bursting open on his body, spurting out bright red blood as he screamed and flew backward.

"There's a chance!"

Regulus and the other man following behind Wuxin immediately brightened up.

They didn't have much confidence in Wuxin at first, hoping he could just hold off Aiacos's attack and give them a moment's chance.

Who would have thought that Wuxin not only blocked Aiacos's powerful attack, but also directly countered it, pushing it back down.

"Is this 'Soul Burial Break'? It really is a powerful trump card!" Regulus couldn't help but exclaim.

In fact, he had also been involved in the cultivation of corpse energy, but he only learned some of the most basic things and did not go any further.

He had heard about the 'Soul Burial Break' technique from Cancer Manigoldo, but he had never actually seen it.

He originally wanted Manigold to demonstrate it, but Manigold said that the move was too dangerous to demonstrate, so he only saw it for the first time today.

"No wonder Manigold was so unwilling to demonstrate it to me. It turns out that this is a move that can counter the opponent and turn the opponent's power into one's own. It is indeed extremely dangerous!" He saw through the trick at a glance.

Theoretically speaking, this move is stronger against strong opponents and weaker against weak opponents.

If you're not careful, even if you encounter a stronger opponent, you could be defeated by this counterattack.

Of course, another reason why Manigold was unwilling to demonstrate it to him was that the other party was unwilling to easily reveal his trump card.

"Let's go!"

Seeing the shockwave from the explosion quickly subside, Regulus gave Cardia, who was not far away, a wink, and then accelerated toward Aiacos's landing spot.

This is a golden opportunity to take down one of the Big Three, and we absolutely cannot let it slip by.

Chapter 257 The Severing Array

"Lightning Speed ​​Fist"

Regulus threw a powerful punch, and countless golden lightning bolts materialized, then converged in front of him into a golden ball of lightning, which shot rapidly toward Aiacos with an aura that seemed capable of destroying everything.

Scarlet Needle

Cardia also pointed a finger, and a sharp needle flew out from his fingertip, silently heading towards Tianxiong Star.

His poison needles weren't very lethal, but in this severely injured state, Tianxiongxing should have a hard time enduring the excruciating pain from the poison needles, and might even further enhance the attack effects of Regulus and Wuxin.

However, just as the two were overjoyed and thought their attack was sure to hit, something strange happened on the side of Farao from the Beast Star behind them.

"Feel the power of the 'Severance Array,' you despicable Saints!" Pharaoh laughed loudly.

Suddenly, the runes on the magic array beneath its feet brightened by nearly double, their light dazzling, and the radiance emitted by the entire pillar of light also became exceptionally brilliant.

Wu Xin and the others were inside the pillar of light, and the sudden increase in light made their eyes sting.

Moreover, Wu Xin noticed that the magic array inscriptions on the ground seemed to come alive, climbing up the Heavenly Beast Star's feet and onto its body, displaying strange patterns on its surface, as if they had merged with it.

Immediately afterwards, a new change occurred inside the pillar of light. The magic array inscriptions on the ground were projected into the air, causing the entire interior of the pillar of light to be shrouded in those mysterious inscriptions.

Then, a strange force descended from above, and Wu Xin suddenly felt as if an invisible shackle had been placed on his body, causing his use of the power of the microcosm to become stagnant out of thin air.

"Oh no, this magic array also has a suppressive effect. My strength has decreased by at least 30%!" Wu Xin was immediately taken aback.

Not only him, but Leo Regulus and Scorpio Cardia were also suppressed by a mysterious force, and even their attacks suddenly weakened by three points.

Before their attacks could even land on Aiacos of the Celestial Hero Star, Pharaoh of the Celestial Beast Star arrived at lightning speed and blocked them in time, catching Regulus and Cardia's attacks with just one hand.

"what!!!"

Wu Xin and the other two were all greatly surprised.

Although Regulus and his companion's attacks were weakened by the power of the magic circle, they shouldn't have been blocked so easily.

It should be noted that the strength of Pharaoh of the Beast Star is far inferior to that of Aiacos of the Hero Star.

Just then, Wu Xin suddenly sensed that the aura emanating from Tian Shou Xing Farao was significantly stronger than before, almost reaching the level of Tian Xiong Xing.

"Oh no! This magic array not only suppressed our strength, but also further strengthened itself!" Wu Xin hurriedly reminded the two Leo members.

"This is a huge problem!"

Having failed to achieve their goal, Regulus and his companion immediately stopped.

Meanwhile, with the help of Pharaoh from the Celestial Beast Star, Aiacos from the Celestial Hero Star finally recovered and got up from the ground again.

However, having taken a direct hit from Wu Xin's 'Soul Burial Break', he was seriously injured and clearly somewhat listless.

"Be careful, there's something strange about that kid wearing the Giant Saint Cloth! His moves seem to be able to counter our combat techniques!" He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and solemnly warned Pharaoh beside him.

Although the Saint Cloth on Wuxin's body was completely different from the Giant Saint Cloth in his memory, as the previous generation's Giant Saint, he still recognized it as his former Saint Cloth at a glance.

Having already witnessed the tragic state of Aiacos, Pharaoh naturally did not want to follow in his footsteps, and immediately nodded seriously.

"Well, I remembered it!"

Then, he raised his hand and punched, shattering the ice that had sealed the harp on the ground not far away, and used his telekinesis to pull the harp back to his side.

To be on the safe side, he did not rashly use any overly powerful moves, but simply gently plucked the remaining strings, continuously emitting invisible sound waves that impacted the three of them.

Dangdang Dangdang!

Upon hearing the melodious zither music, Wu Xin and the other two suddenly felt invisible waves crashing against them from all around, like ocean waves crashing against them one after another.

Although the damage wasn't very strong, it was enough to make them feel a dull ache all over their bodies, especially their internal organs, which felt as if they were being pricked with needles.
