Becoming a Saint Seiya since the Age of Mythology

Defteros turned and looked over.

In the instant their eyes met, Wu Xin clearly sensed that each of Defteros's eyes contained a different emotion.

One was a joke, the other a gesture of gratitude.

"Of course I am Aspros!"

"Of course I am Defteros!"

Defteros opened his mouth slowly, but two very similar but different sounds came out at the same time.

"you--"

At this moment, whether it was Wuxin, Rhadamanthus, or Death, they were all stunned.

It was at this moment that Defteros's voice once again entered Wuxin's heart.

"Give me just five more seconds. Just five seconds to hold off Death is all it takes!"

Although still somewhat confused, Wuxin immediately agreed.

"no problem!"

"But what about Rhadamanthus?" Wuxin asked another question.

"Ignore him, just help me stop Death!" Defteros silently transmitted the message.

"it is good!"

Wu Xin responded again, then turned around and decisively charged toward Death, who was not far away.

Radamanthys, the Heavenly Fierce Star, originally wanted to continue the unfinished battle with Wuxin, but when he saw Wuxin suddenly abandon him and rush towards Death, he was completely dumbfounded.

He hesitated for a moment and did not chase after him.

Because, given Death's nature, it will not allow others to interfere in its affairs.

"Let me have a go at you, Thanatos!"

Wu Xin shouted, and a ball of energy emanating a chilling aura condensed in his hand.

"The cold moon casts its shadow"

He lifted the energy ball with one hand and sent it soaring into the sky, whereupon a bright moon materialized within the Yellow Springs rift.

Meanwhile, Thanatos, the god of death, casually gathered his cosmos power with one hand, and then launched a counterattack with seemingly slow but actually fast movements.

Because of El Cid's previous sword strike, he can now only use his left hand.

"What an overconfident fool!"

"You should learn to be humble before the gods!"

"Ultimate Heavenly Might"

With a wave of his hand, the power of his cosmos, which had been gathered in his palm, poured out instantly, transforming into a terrifying purple light wave that spread outwards.

However, as the offensive side, Wuxin had the speed advantage.

The moment the purple light wave spread from Death's palm, the faint moonlight fell upon Death.

In an instant, Thanatoston felt a chill run through his body, and his body heat began to dissipate uncontrollably, until he was completely frozen solid.

But a god is a god. Wu Xin's ultimate move, which can directly freeze and kill a seventh sense warrior, poses no threat to the Grim Reaper.

The purple light wave that was spreading paused for a moment, then suddenly erupted, instantly shattering the ice seal on the Grim Reaper's body, and continued to spread toward Wuxin.

Sensing the danger emanating from him, Wu Xin didn't dare to confront it head-on and quickly created distance to avoid it.

Rumble!

Wherever the light wave passed, space shattered inch by inch, and then was crushed flat again by its powerful force.

At the same time, while Death was distracted by Goshin, Defteros's gaze fell on the Gemini Surplice that originally belonged to Aspros on the ground.

Since the life Aspros was given was a false life, his soulless body had turned into a pile of dust, leaving only the empty Gemini Surplice.

He released his mental power and gently reached into the shrine robe, from which a miniature statue the size of a palm was pulled out.

That was Athena's divine armor, which Aspros had previously stolen.

As Athena's divine armor appeared, the Grim Reaper, who was not far away, seemed to notice and subconsciously looked up.

"Is that Athena's divine armor?"

He recognized it at a glance, and no longer caring about Wuxin in front of him, he immediately changed his target and prepared to take it by force.

"Lord Thanatos, please practice with me some more!"

Wu Xin immediately blocked Death's path and launched another attack.

"Go away!"

At this moment, Thanatos had completely lost his patience and had no intention of getting entangled with Wuxin.

He had previously arranged for Aspros to lie in ambush, so he wasn't worried at all that the Goddess of Harvest would be rescued by the Saints.

Even if the Goddess of Harvest were to escape, it would only give the Saints a possibility of breaking the God-Slaying Jar, not the ability to directly break the jar.

But now things are different. Defteros's unusual behavior made him realize that Aspros might have betrayed them.

If that sacred garment were to return to Athena's hands, with the help of both inside and outside forces, Athena might very well break the magic jar directly.

He especially remembered that the Giant Throne possessed a combat technique that could counter the opponent's moves, just like Sage had just done.

Although it poses no real threat to him, it can be used to stall him with that strange combat technique.

Therefore, Thanatos, the god of death, launched a decisive attack.

"Turn into dust in the endless dimensional turbulence, you lowly mortal!"

"The Passage of God"

With a single gesture, a strange dimensional portal, its interior grid-like structure unfolding from the Grim Reaper at its center, rapidly expanded outwards.

Chapter 353 Burning Away the Glory

"not good!"

Faced with this move, Wu Xin felt a chill run down his spine.

His Soul Burial Break has the ability to counter the opponent's combat skills, but not all combat skills and ultimate moves can be countered; the Divine Passage before him is one of them.

Strictly speaking, it's not an offensive technique at all; it's just a dimensional passage that people can pass through, so it can't be countered by Soul Burial Break.

However, the dimensional space power inside the passage is too strong, and non-divine objects cannot pass through. Once mortal objects fall into it, they will be annihilated by the powerful dimensional space power, so it is used as an offensive combat technique.

Even though he possessed a technique like Soul Burial Break, Wu Xin had no way to counter it.

"wrong!"

"Others might not be able to, but I should be able to!"

Suddenly, Wu Xin remembered the divine blood he had refined before.

In the era of Pegasus Seiya, the Saints broke through the Wailing Wall but were blocked by a divine passage. Seiya and his companions were able to successfully travel together only thanks to the protection of Athena's divine blood.

Now that he has refined a drop of divine blood, he should theoretically be unafraid of this divine passage.

However, before Wu Xin could even try to verify it, the rapidly expanding divine passage suddenly stopped and began to shrink back at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"This is?"

Wu Xin was puzzled, but upon closer inspection, he saw dozens of divine talismans floating and attaching themselves to the inside of the divine passage.

"combine--"

Then he heard an old and hoarse voice.

Countless divine runes simultaneously unleashed their divine power, releasing bolts of golden lightning that forcibly closed the entire divine passage.

He looked in the direction of the sound and saw Pope Sage lying on his back on the ground, with several talismans tucked between his fingers, smiling at him.

"It seems... my old bones... can still... play some role..."

At this moment, the divine passage was closed, and at this critical juncture, it was once again obstructed, which enraged Death.

"Damn old man!"

He roared, and a bolt of purple lightning shot down from above his head.

Sage was already seriously injured, and activating the divine rune had exhausted his last bit of strength. Even though he still had the divine rune in his hand, he couldn't use it at all.

"The future... is entrusted to..."

He smiled and looked at Wuxin, wanting to say a final goodbye, but it was too late.

"Do not--"

Wu Xin was too late to rescue him and could only watch helplessly as Sai Qi was engulfed in the purple lightning.

When the lightning dissipated, only a charred corpse remained on the ground.

Thanatos—

Wu Xin transformed his grief into strength, pointing a finger at Death from afar.

"Sekishiki - Netherworld Wave"

He knew very well that this move wouldn't hurt Death, but it could shake Death's soul.

He hadn't expected this move to cause any real damage to Death, but the brief momentary shock was enough to help him create the five seconds Defteros needed.

Because of Sage's delaying and obstruction, more than half of those five seconds had already passed.

At the same time, because he was distracted by attacking Sage on the ground, the enraged Grim Reaper was unable to defend himself in time and was immediately hit by Goshin's Sekishiki.

"Come out!!!"

Wu Xin suddenly exerted his strength, using the Six Paths of Corpse Qi to trap the Grim Reaper's soul and drag it straight out of his body.

In that instant, Wu Xin felt as if he had trapped a mountain with his accumulated corpse energy, and every inch he dragged it felt extremely difficult.

Even so, he did not give up. Instead, he gritted his teeth and dragged the object out with all his might.

Seeing his soul separate from his body, and unable to stop Defteros who was not far away, Thanatos's soul immediately gave an order to Tianmengxing, who was still confused.
