At this moment, she finally understood everything.
The Poseidon's body, which the Ghost Warriors stole from Atlantis, was just an unexpected bonus.
Eris, the goddess of discord, prepared for herself from the very beginning the physical body of Achilles, the immortal body of whom she was born.
Although it may not be a perfect match for one's soul, the powerful fundamental properties of an immortal body are enough to bridge any gap.
But later, Eris obtained the Sea God's body.
Originally, as the body of another god, it would naturally be extremely repulsed by him and would not be able to be used by him.
Coincidentally, Achilles' mother was a sea goddess, belonging to the same lineage as Poseidon, the god of the sea, and possessing similar power.
This also means that Achilles, who has the blood of the sea goddess flowing through his veins, is also an excellent bearer of the power of the sea god.
Eris then extracted the power from Poseidon's body to resurrect Achilles, leaving herself with an empty shell devoid of Poseidon's power.
Without the Sea Emperor's power that rejected her, the Sea Emperor's body could naturally accept her.
The reason the enemy chose this initial Atlantis as their base was to make it easier to utilize the terrain for their deployment, to use the Poseidon ruins to extract the Poseidon's power, and to assimilate Achilles' immortal body.
After all, that was a body that had already ascended to godhood; it wasn't so easy to possess.
At the same time, Sasha also figured out something else.
Although she had some advantages during the battle in the void, they were not significant, and it would take her a lot of time and effort to defeat Eris.
For some reason, the opponent suddenly revealed a fatal flaw, and she took the opportunity to deliver a fatal blow, but she was also severely injured by the opponent's counterattack.
Now, she has finally figured it out.
From the very beginning, Eris treated the Sea Emperor's body as a consumable to deal with himself.
There's no need to defeat him; just exchange wounds and severely injure him, and Eris will have achieved his goal.
She had no spare body to replace her, but Eris was prepared.
If Achilles were allowed to possess his immortal body while he himself was severely injured and unable to fight, the outcome would be predictable.
Upon hearing Sasha's words, the Saints immediately realized what was happening and turned to charge forward, launching another round of attacks.
"Giant Horn"
Pegasus Meteor Fist
Diamond Dust
……
Everyone unleashed their special moves, but they were all injured and their strength was greatly depleted, so their fighting ability was much weaker than before.
Rumble!
Their attacks came crashing down on Achilles and Eris like a tidal wave, but they couldn't budge them an inch. Eris easily blocked them with a small cosmic barrier.
"Don't hold back! Go all out!"
Seeing this, Shion became anxious and immediately spoke up to remind him. He gritted his teeth and further squeezed out his physical strength, forcibly driving his cosmos to attack.
"Stardust Rotation Technique"
Pegasus Comet Fist
……
Another, even more ferocious combined attack landed, and with a cracking sound, it shattered Eris's protective barrier, then engulfed the two people inside.
"Did it succeed??"
Everyone looked expectantly towards the center of the explosion.
As the dust settled, the scene at the center of the battlefield was revealed once more.
Achilles and Eris were finally forcibly separated, scattered on opposite sides of the battlefield.
However, as a gentle breeze swept across the battlefield, Eris, the goddess of discord, shattered into countless particles on the ground like a pile of sand, and then vanished from the battlefield, leaving only a golden spear in place.
"Be careful, she may have already succeeded!"
As a deity, Sasha quickly realized something was wrong and issued a warning.
Although the Goddess of Strife was severely injured by her divine spear, she shouldn't have been scattered by a mere breeze.
Therefore, there is only one answer: the other party has successfully replaced the body.
Without divine power, it was impossible for that mortal body to withstand her divine spear and the combined attack of numerous Saints.
Chapter 439 Fate Stifles
Sure enough, no sooner had Sasha finished speaking than Achilles, who had been lying on the ground not far away, suddenly stood up straight.
Before anyone could react, an extremely powerful cosmic fluctuation suddenly emanated from him, even stronger than Achilles' previous one.
boom!
The already exhausted Saint Seiya warriors were powerless to resist, and they all coughed up blood as they were thrown away by the shockwave.
"Athena, your era has ended!"
Achilles, or rather, the goddess of discord who had taken over Sasha's body, stared at her from afar, her face full of smugness, and said, "From now on, I, the goddess of discord and conflict, will rule the earth in your place!"
"And you will become the sacrifice of this holy war, to ripen that fruit that has been cultivated for countless centuries!"
"Just accept your fate!"
"Hahaha--"
At this point, she couldn't help but burst into laughter.
Perhaps due to the severe injuries she sustained in her previous battle with Sasha, or perhaps because Achilles' immortal body was too powerful, she had not completely assimilated into that body at this moment, and had only managed to change the way she spoke.
However, the fact that such a sharp female voice could come from a heroic male body sounded very strange and sent chills down one's spine.
"No, you haven't won yet!"
Sasha remained calm and said seriously, "Even if you have changed your body, your soul has been injured by my divine spear, and you cannot fully exert your strength!"
"You're not much stronger than Achilles was just now!"
“That is indeed the case, but killing you is enough!” Eris said with murderous intent, releasing his vast inner universe.
In an instant, the world changed color, and endless dark clouds gathered above the Sahara Desert, completely blocking out the sunlight and turning the earth into darkness. Only the radiant light of their own inner universes struggled to stay afloat, like candle flames flickering in the wind.
At that moment, a sense of despair involuntarily arose in everyone's mind.
But at that moment, Sasha used her cosmic power to build a communication network and used the ease of communication to reassure everyone.
"Don't be afraid, everyone!"
"Things haven't gotten to their worst yet!"
"Lord Sasha, is there any other way we can defeat this goddess of discord?" Aries Shion asked anxiously.
"Of course there are solutions!"
Sasha paused for a moment, then said seriously, "Eris seized Achilles' immortal body, but at the same time inherited Achilles' most fatal weakness!"
Wu Xin's heart skipped a beat, and he tentatively asked, "Is the one you're talking about, sir, Achilles' right ankle?"
Apart from that ankle, there probably isn't another fatal weakness.
“That’s it!” Sasha replied.
"But Lord Sasha, Achilles' immortal body is far too strong. Even his most vulnerable right ankle is not something we can easily break through!" Pegasus immediately complained.
Sasha said earnestly, "With your strength, it is indeed difficult to break through the weaknesses of the immortal body, let alone kill it with a single blow."
"But all of this is not entirely hopeless!"
"Lord Sasha, how exactly do we exploit Achilles' weakness to deliver a fatal blow?" Taurus Hasgard pressed.
"Destiny!"
Sasha slowly uttered two words.
"Destiny?"
The crowd was quite puzzled.
Sasha explained earnestly, "In the mythological era, Achilles' death was not simply due to his weakness being exploited."
"After all, even if a being has a weakness, it is impossible for them to die instantly from a single touch."
Upon hearing this, Wu Xin nodded secretly.
There was indeed something fishy about Achilles' death.
Previously, during his battle with Achilles, he discovered that although he and Defteros had twice severely injured Achilles, leaving him battered and bruised, even damaging his right ankle, they still hadn't been able to truly kill him.
From that time on, he suspected that the legend was incomplete, or that someone had deliberately concealed the true cause of Achilles' death.
Achilles' death was not simply caused by an arrow striking his right ankle, a vulnerable spot.
Sasha continued to explain, "To defeat the demigod Achilles, three conditions must be met."
"Firstly, you must have sufficient power, something you should all understand deeply."
"Even the opponent's most vulnerable weakness cannot be broken without sufficient strength, let alone used to kill them with a single blow."
"Secondly, the place where the demigod Achilles was defeated had to be on the battlefield."
"This is his fate."
"Achilles can only die on the battlefield; there is no other place where he can truly be killed!"
"Leaving the battlefield, even if you deliver a fatal blow to his weakness, you can only severely injure him, not truly kill him!"
"Thirdly, and this is the most important point."
"Achilles' fate shows that he will only die from arrows!"
"That's why he was possessed by the sun god Apollo back then, who shot him in the ankle with the sun god's arrow, ultimately destroying his divine body and killing him!"
"And if we want to defeat Achilles now, we also need to rely on the power of destiny!"
"So that's how it is!"
