The three dared not delay and immediately activated their inner universes to block the sonic waves from impacting them.

Even so, it could not completely negate the penetration of the sound waves, and everyone's heartbeats were gradually affected and began to become disordered.

"Um--"

Cardia, who had a heart condition, groaned and clutched his chest, his face turning pale.

Wu Xin originally wanted to take the initiative to attack and interrupt Farao's playing, but due to the suppression of the magic circle and the fact that his opponent was blessed, he had to give up this risky idea.

On the other side, although Pharaoh was enhanced by the magic circle and his strength was improved, he did not dare to approach Wuxin and the other two rashly, and could only harass them from a distance with his zither music.

After witnessing Wu Xin's move, he completely abandoned the idea of ​​taking the initiative to attack.

Meanwhile, Aiacos of the Celestial Beast Star was seriously injured and did not make any rash moves. He stood quietly at the back, waiting for the situation to change.

For a time, the two sides reached a stalemate.

“The situation has changed. I think we should retreat for now!” Regulus said with some concern, seeing that Cardia’s expression was becoming increasingly grim.

"I agree!"

Wu Xin immediately agreed, adding, "This 'Severance Array' is beyond our expectations. We should retreat and discuss it further to find a solution."

"A rash attack will only result in pointless sacrifices."

Seeing that both of them intended to retreat, Cardia, who was already in poor health, had no objections. The three of them immediately reached a consensus and carefully began to retreat.

Farah had intended to intercept them, but considering the strength of the three, he decisively chose to give up.

He is still somewhat inferior to Tianxiong Star at his peak, and he really doesn't have much confidence in facing Wuxin and the other two.

If Tianxiongxing Aiacos hadn't been injured, the two of them combined would have been quite confident in capturing them.

Unfortunately, plans don't always go as expected. Tianxiong Star Aiacos was unexpectedly injured by Crater Star Wuxin and can't be of much help in the short term.

And so, he could only watch helplessly as the three of them calmly withdrew from the direct range of the magic array.

As Wu Xin and his two companions retreated, Regulus also signaled a retreat to his comrades on the other battlefields.

Since their battle had ended, neither Tian Shou Xing nor Tian Xiong Xing could be subdued.

If you only care about yourself and don't notify others in time, your other comrades who are fighting may be attacked by Tian Shou Xing and Tian Xiong Xing.

Such a situation must naturally be avoided.

Chapter 258 Report on the Battle Situation

However, even with Regulus's reminder, the retreat of the Saints on the other battlefields still took considerable effort.

Because, after realizing the effect of Pharaoh of the Celestial Beast Star using the 'Severance Array', the Specters guarding the other arrays also decisively activated their array effects.

Faced with this unexpected situation, the Gold Saints on other battlefields immediately suffered a great loss. Fortunately, Sagittarius Sisyphus provided timely support with his golden arrows, forcing the enemy back and allowing them to successfully withdraw from the battlefield.

"That was close! That was close! We almost didn't make it back!" After reuniting with the others, Shion immediately began to complain.

With the help of the magic array, the opponent's strength suddenly increased, while he was suppressed. If it weren't for Sisyphus' golden arrow coming to the rescue in time, he might not have been able to return.

“Indeed, that magic circle is really too troublesome!” Degel also sighed.

His Aquarius Gold Cloth had many cracks and gaps, and he himself was also seriously injured.

"I never expected them to have such a trick up their sleeve! If it weren't for the sudden return of the Giant Constellation, breaking the stalemate on the battlefield, I'm afraid we would have kept hiding for who knows how long!" Taurus Hasgard glanced meaningfully at Wuxin.

If the Specters were to save this tactic for a crucial moment and suddenly unleash it on them, the consequences would be unimaginable.

“The Giant Throne was indeed a great help!” Cardia nodded in agreement.

If it weren't for the timely arrival of the Giant King, he would have had to fight Pharaoh to the death.

"By the way, did you find the Star Sand when you went to the Temple of the Moon?" Regulus suddenly asked Wuxin, and the other Gold Saints also looked at Wuxin with questioning eyes.

"We found some! But many more Star Sands were destroyed in the battle!" Wu Xin said regretfully, taking out an ice crystal bottle.

That was a bottle he made using his own frozen energy, specifically for holding stardust.

"It's good that the items were brought back; El Cid's injuries can be healed!" Hasgard nodded.

“However, on this trip to the Temple of the Moon, I encountered those evil spirit warriors again!” Wuxin said, putting away the ice crystal bottle.

"What? Evil forces have already infiltrated the Temple of the Moon?" The Gold Saints were shocked.

That was the abode of a god, and although that god had vanished, it was absolutely not to be violated.

Especially since it was a benevolent deity who stood on the same side as the goddess Athena, which enraged the Gold Saints.

"Everyone, please don't get agitated!"

Wu Xin quickly reassured him, replying with a smile, "I have eliminated all the evil spirit warriors who entered the Temple of the Moon this time, including the blasphemers!"

"What?! You killed the Blasphemer too?" Regulus exclaimed in surprise.

He had long heard that the man was a powerful fighter whose strength had reached the peak of the Seventh Sense, and few in the entire Holy Domain could rival him.

"Yes, I used the divine talisman bestowed by Lord Sasha to take him down!" Wu Xin nodded, making no attempt to hide anything.

"So it was a divine talisman bestowed by Lord Sasha!" The Gold Saints suddenly realized.

Given the strength of the Giant, it would be difficult for him to directly kill a fighter at the peak of the Seventh Sense, but with the assistance of a divine rune, it would be a different story.

“Now that the blasphemer has been beheaded, Manigoldo’s spirit can finally rest in peace!” Shion sighed deeply.

Their respective mentors are Bai Li and Sai Qi, and because of this connection, the two have always had a fairly good relationship.

He was genuinely happy that the blasphemer had been beheaded.

However, the thought of his mentor Hakurei instantly swept away Shion's joy, replacing it with a heavy feeling.

He glanced at Wuxin, wanting to say something, but felt it wasn't the right time, so he swallowed back the words that were already on the tip of his tongue.

Completely oblivious to Shion's odd behavior, Wuxin continued, "Besides defeating the evil spirit warriors during our trip to the Moon Temple, I also gleaned a lot of interesting information from them."

"We might even uncover the blasphemers' mysterious identities and further peek into the gods hidden behind them!"

"You already have a suspect?" Degel immediately looked over.

"No! I only saw his face! And made some guesses based on his conversation! Perhaps only the goddess knows the more specific answer!" Wu Xin glanced towards the Holy Mountain.

"A goddess?"

The mood of the gold-digging group immediately became much heavier.

Only the goddess could possibly know their origins. Without a doubt, those evil spirit warriors have a powerful background, which also means that they are a huge problem.

Unfortunately, they are currently in the midst of a holy war, and they simply don't have the resources to spare to deal with this matter, nor do they want to provoke those powerful enemies.

The news that Wuxin brought back was truly a headache.

Then, with heavy hearts, the group of Gold Saints ascended the holy mountain and came before the goddess's throne to report on the battle situation. Even Sisyphus and the others who were responsible for staying behind followed to listen.

"Greetings, Lord Sasha! Greetings, Your Holiness the Pope!" Everyone bowed in unison.

"Get up, all of you!"

Sasha gently raised her hand and released a gentle burst of mental energy to help everyone up.

"How badly are you injured?" she asked Caldia and the others with concern.

"It's nothing serious, just some superficial injuries! I'll be fine after a while! Thank you for your concern, sir!" Degel replied readily.

The others also said that they were all fine.

Subsequently, Regulus and the other Gold Saints began to report on the battle situation, especially focusing on the intelligence of the 'Severance Array', and used their telekinesis to project the actual situation they saw on the battlefield.

"No wonder I always felt that those magic arrays were missing something; it turns out they were hiding the function of empowering oneself and suppressing one's opponent!" Pope Sage exclaimed with a sigh.

"Without appropriate checks and balances, we are no match for those Specters guarding the magic array! Destroying the magic array is a distant dream!" Taurus Hasgard said solemnly.

Pope Sage thought for a moment, then asked in a low voice, "Lord Sasha, could we distribute some divine talismans to each of them, using their power to counteract the suppression of the magic array?"

That's far from enough!

Sasha shook his head and said seriously, "The power of the divine rune can only hold out for a short time; the duration is too short."

"Especially in an environment completely enveloped by a magic array, the power of the divine talisman will be consumed more quickly and cannot be used as a means to resist the suppression of the magic array for a long time."

"That--"

Just as Sage was about to ask if there were any other solutions, Sasha smiled and said, "Divine runes cannot be used for a long time, but sacred objects can!"

"I intend to retrieve the golden weapons kept by Libra, imbue them with divine power, and temporarily transform them into sacred artifacts."

"Furthermore, based on the information you brought back, I have deduced some of the key nodes of the magic array."

"As long as these sacred artifacts are implanted into the nodes, the blessing and suppression effects of the 'Severance Array' can be temporarily nullified."

"At that time, the Specters will return to the same starting point as everyone else."

Chapter 259 Desecrating the True Form

"That's wonderful!"

The gold was overjoyed.

"As expected of the 'Goddess of War and Wisdom,' she deduced the structure of the magic array from just a partial view and even found a solution!" Wu Xin secretly praised.

After dealing with the battle situation outside, Sasha turned her attention to Wuxin and asked with concern, "How did the operation at the Temple of the Moon go?"

"There were some hiccups, but overall it went smoothly!"

Wu Xin nodded and continued, "Moreover, on this trip to the Temple of the Moon, I also encountered evil spirit warriors led by the Blasphemer, as well as the lingering resentment of the priestess Iphigenia who remained in the Temple of the Moon!"

He then recounted in detail his battles with the two opposing forces.

“The Blasphemer seems to have a past grudge against the Moon Priestess Iphigenia, so I suspect that the Blasphemer is likely a figure from the same mythological era as her!” Wuxin solemnly stated his deduction.

The others nodded slightly in agreement.

Based on Wuxin's description, this possibility is very high.

After all, those evil spirit warriors claimed to be resurrected people returning to collect debts.

Although the mythological era is ancient, the dead people of that era are still the dead, and there is nothing wrong with them.

Upon hearing this, Sasha's expression became much more serious, and she continued to ask, "Then what else did you find out?"
