Finding a suitable place to settle down was no problem for him at all.

Soon, he brought Shion to the edge of a floating island directly east of Hades City.

"Lord Sasha, we have found a stable place to settle down. You may now open the dimensional portal!" Shion replied respectfully.

"Okay, got it!"

Sasha responded and then turned to look at the Saints below the throne.

"Defteros, how are the arrangements for the Bronze and Silver Saints going?" she asked to confirm.

Defteros replied earnestly, "I have sent them all out to help evacuate the people and minimize the damage caused by that 'Paradise Lost' painting."

"And I have already given them orders that they don't need to participate in the next battles; they just need to handle the troubles within their own capabilities!"

"This arrangement is excellent!"

Sasha nodded, glanced at everyone again, and asked, "The final battle is about to begin. I'd like to confirm with everyone one last time, are you all ready?"

"Ready, Lord Sasha!" everyone responded in unison.

"Then, follow me into battle, Saints!"

After taking one last look at everyone, Sasha stepped down from the throne and went to the open space in front.

She then used the Saint Cloths on Pegasus and Shion as anchor points, and gently moved the scepter in her hand forward slightly.

"open!"

With a delicate shout, the space in front of her was like a calm lake being struck by a scepter, instantly rippling outwards in waves.

Immediately afterwards, at the very center of the ripples, a dimensional portal slowly opened.

At the same time, deep within Hades City, Hades Aaron sensed Sasha's attack.

"Has it finally arrived?"

"If you think I'm wrong, then prove me wrong!"

"Only by defeating me can you prove yourself right, prove yourself worthy of saving the world, Sasha!" He muttered to himself, looking in the direction the dimensional portal had opened.

However, as his gaze traversed the endless void and he saw Defteros and his companions at the head of the group, he couldn't help but chuckle.

"Sacred Robe?"

"No wonder you were so confident to come to my door on your own initiative!"

He immediately saw through the confidence of the Saint Seiya warriors.

Under normal circumstances, the four eighth senses, plus the Saints with God Cloths, are indeed a terrifying force that cannot be ignored.

Looking at their own side, apart from Radamanthys and the deeply hidden Tiankui Star, the other Specters would indeed have a hard time resisting these people.

After thinking for a moment, he gently called out towards the door.

"Pandora—"

As the sound waves were transmitted and spread by telekinesis, Pandora, who was playing the piano in the rest room, received the call and immediately came to Aaron's studio.

"Lord Hades, what are your orders?" Pandora knelt on the ground, her long skirt trailing behind her.

"Athena and her Saints are coming!" Hades Aaron warned first.

"The enemy is coming?"

Pandora, who had not yet received any news from the front lines, was taken aback and quickly bowed her head, saying, "Please forgive our negligence, Lord Hades!"

"No, this isn't your fault! They're still outside the barrier, so it's normal that the Specters below didn't notice!"

Hades Aaron, unperturbed, continued, "I want to tell you something else."

"Athena bestowed upon her the Saint Cloth, a battle suit that can rival the Eighth Sense and make the Saint even stronger."

"Therefore, I also intend to strengthen your power to fight against those Saint Seiya!"

As he spoke, he slowly dipped his paintbrush into the paint bucket beside him, then pulled it out abruptly. Using the empty space in front of him as a canvas, he quickly wrote nine large characters: Water, Metal, Earth, Fire, Wood, Soil, Heaven, Sea, and Darkness.

As he wrote the last word, the nine large characters instantly transformed into nine orbs of light that surrounded Pandora.

Pluto Aaron immediately introduced, "You should know that this sky city was created by me by combining the power of the nine planets."

"And the power of these nine planets is also the foundation of the entire 'Paradise Lost' canvas."

"Now, in order to help you better resist the Saints, I have decided to distribute the cores of the power of the nine planets to you!"

"As long as you are in the corresponding star palace and possess the corresponding power core, you can receive the blessing of planetary power, which will further enhance your strength."

"As for how much you can improve, that depends on your own capacity!"

Chapter 461 Above the Sea of ​​Clouds

“But the core of the power of the nine planets has been given to us, so what about you, my lord?” Pandora asked subconsciously, somewhat worried.

"Do you think I still need such a thing?" Hades Aaron asked, narrowing his eyes.

Sensing Hades' displeasure, Pandora quickly bowed and said in a flustered manner, "Please forgive me, Your Majesty, I misspoke!"

"Alright, hurry up and distribute the nine cores. Athena and the Saints will be here soon!" Hades Aaron didn't pursue the matter and waved his hand to dismiss them.

"Yes!"

Pandora nodded repeatedly, then left the central studio with the nine core members.

On the other side, after passing through the dimensional portal, Sasha led Wuxin and the others to the sky.

Their landing point was a floating plot of land, or rather a floating island, on the very edge of Hades City.

All around was a sea of ​​clouds, making it almost impossible to see the ground. Above the sea of ​​clouds, lifelike images of heavenly angels appeared, seemingly alive and playing.

But upon closer inspection, one can see that the clouds are floating under the influence of air currents, creating the illusion of angels playing.

Aside from the angels of heaven, the most eye-catching feature above the sea of ​​clouds is the floating islands centered around Hades City.

Those pieces of land surrounding Hades City that had been swept up into the sky shattered into pieces, floating around like islands, like loyal soldiers guarding their commander.

Wu Xin could clearly sense the fluctuations of the Specters' aura on those floating islands.

Clearly, the Underworld has deployed Specters to defend the area above.

However, when Wuxin concentrated his eyes to try to see the situation deeper in front of him, he could no longer see clearly. It was as if some force was blocking his investigation, allowing him to only see the outermost area.

Beside them, after replenishing Pegasus and Shion with divine blood and removing the evolutionary shackles from their Cloths, Sasha finally spoke up and asked, "You've been scouting here for so long, how much do you know about the situation here?"

Shion immediately replied, "Lord Sasha, according to our observations, after interrogating a few more scattered Specters, we have finally confirmed this."

"This is the Lost Paradise in the Sky, created by Hades, with Hades City at its core, and it shares the same name as the painting above the sea of ​​clouds."

"We are currently on the verge of losing paradise, but we have not yet truly entered it."

"Once you pass through those towering floating islands, you will reach the depths of Paradise Lost, a place known as the 'Star Palace'."

"According to our intelligence, that is the center of Paradise Lost, sculpted by Hades with the power of the nine planets."

"Pluto used the power of the nine planets to forge the Demon Palace, and together with the guardians of the Demon Palace, formed an extremely powerful barrier."

"To reach Hades' city, where Hades resides, we must first breach the nine demon palaces!"

"As for more specific information about the Nine Demon Palaces, we haven't been able to find out!"

“It’s okay, you’ve done more than enough!” Sasha comforted her with a smile.

"In that case, let's set off!"

Regulus locked onto a floating island ahead with great enthusiasm, then bent his knees, preparing to leap over it.

"Don't rush!"

Shion quickly stopped Leo.

"What's wrong?" Regulus looked over in confusion.

Pegasus stepped forward, looked at the sea of ​​clouds ahead, and said seriously, "The sea of ​​clouds in this area is extraordinary. It contains the projection of the River Styx, and we cannot cross it directly."

“We have personally witnessed a flock of birds flying over there and falling directly into the sea of ​​clouds, where they were then dissolved by the projection of the River Styx.”

Upon hearing this, Wu Xin's heart stirred, and he tentatively asked, "So, if we want to cross the sea of ​​clouds, wouldn't the only option be to rely on Charon's Netherworld Ship?"

"Junior brother, you know about this too?" Shion was somewhat taken aback.

Wu Xin said somewhat helplessly, "Senior brother, have you forgotten? I once went into Hell to rescue Pegasus, so I know more about the situation there than most of you."

"The River Styx, also known as the River of Three Crossings, is the boundary between life and death, so it is not a place that ordinary people can cross."

"Only the boatmen on the River Styx, Charon's ship of the celestial star, can freely travel between the two banks of the River Styx."

"If the projection of the River Styx overlaps here, then the only way to cross is by relying on the Netherworld Ship of the Celestial Star!"

"That's right!"

Shion nodded and said seriously, "Based on our observations these past few days, it seems that only Charon's ghost ship from the Celestial Star can travel freely above this sea of ​​clouds!"

Pegasus continued, "Charon of the Celestial Star is very greedy. We just need to lure him over, capture him, and then use threats and inducements to get him to ride his ghost ship across the sea of ​​clouds."

"No need for that!"

Defteros shook his head and said seriously, "You just need to find a way to lure him here, and I have a way to make him obediently lead us across the sea of ​​clouds!"

Upon hearing this, Shion seemed to realize something, and his gaze towards Defteros became more enlightened.

After a moment's thought, Wu Xin and the others instantly understood Defteros's plan.

Although it is somewhat inhumane, there is no better way.

"In that case, let's hide quickly!"

"Let Pegasus summon the Celestial Star alone!"

“Otherwise, if he notices the presence of so many of us, he will absolutely not come any closer!” Shion immediately suggested.

"Row!"

Everyone nodded and immediately retreated into the clouds behind them, concealing themselves.

Despite still being somewhat confused, Pegasus took a few steps forward, reached the edge of the floating island, and shouted ahead.

Is anyone there?
