Becoming a Saint Seiya since the Age of Mythology

Perhaps due to anger, the beetle became noticeably more solid this time, exuding a murderous aura.

Even the solid ground undulated under its immense weight, creating waves that resembled ripples on a calm lake.

"Good, good, good!"

Hasgard exclaimed "Good!" three times in a row, his fighting spirit growing even stronger.

To be honest, apart from the last time with the Lone Star Violet, he hasn't encountered a purely strength-based opponent in a long time.

This pure clash of forces gave him a sense of immense satisfaction and fascination.

"Giant Horn"

Seeing the black beetle enter its optimal attack range, he launched another counterattack.

The golden bull reappears, colliding once again with the black beetle.

boom!

The two sides remained evenly matched, and the shockwaves sent them both flying.

"Again!"

Hasgard got up, ignoring his injuries, and launched another attack with high morale.

Immediately, the two fighters, renowned for their strength, engaged in a brutal, hand-to-hand combat.

Meanwhile, after leaving the Jupiter Demon Palace, Wuxin and the others continued forward.

However, as they got closer to the next demon palace, they gradually felt an extremely oppressive aura coming from above.

Just like the previous Tianbao Star, an extremely terrifying enemy appeared in the Demon Palace ahead.

Even before officially entering the Demon Palace, the powerful aura emanating from the opponent had already spread to the cloud-like staircase.

"Another terrifying guy!"

Odysseus, the constellation Ophiuchus, glanced ahead with a solemn expression.

This extremely oppressive aura is no less powerful than that of the previous Tianbao Star.

"I feel like there's a vicious dragon lurking in front of us, waiting for us to come to us!" Pegasus said with a sense of unease.

Sasha glanced at him using his divine vision and said solemnly, "That's a Specter with a touch of divinity. His physical body is extremely powerful, unlike anything else!"

"Only one level below Achilles back then!"

"That's Rhadamanthus, the Heavenly Fierce Star!"

Wu Xin immediately made a judgment and continued, "According to the intelligence we gathered on the battlefield, we heard that he was severely injured by Orpheus in the Forest of the God of War and is on the verge of death."

"Finally, he was given a drop of divine blood by Hades, which saved him from the brink of death and used it to create an extremely powerful physical body."

"I fought him before, back in the Yellow Springs Rift battlefield. He is an extremely terrifying and troublesome enemy."

"Speaking of which, Senior Wuxin, you also received a drop of divine blood from the goddess, right? How come your physical body seems to be inferior to that of Rhadamanthus, the Heavenly Fierce Star?" Pegasus glanced at him.

"Absorbing divine blood is not as simple as you imagine, Pegasus!"

Wu Xin gave a wry smile and patiently explained, "Divine blood itself contains enormous energy and a trace of divinity. For mortals like us, it is an excellent tonic, but at the same time, it is also a potent poison."

"If one can fully absorb the blood of the gods, one's life will naturally be elevated, like Rhadamanthus, who elevated his physical body to an incredible level."

"But that immense energy and extraordinary divinity are beyond the capacity of ordinary people, especially for mortals with weak physical bodies."

"Based on my estimation, I'm afraid that out of ten thousand people, perhaps only one will be able to truly refine and absorb the divine blood."

"Your estimate is still too conservative, Critics!"

Odysseus, who was walking beside him, chimed in, saying, "As early as the age of mythology, some bored gods had conducted such tests."

"As a result, only about one in 100,000 people can refine and absorb divine blood."

"Others could not withstand the energy brought by the divine blood and the burden of physical transformation, and eventually died from their bodies exploding."

"My goodness, this is way too difficult!" Pegasus exclaimed in shock.

Wu Xin was also quite frightened by the data reported by Odysseus.

Fortunately, he didn't act rashly when refining the divine blood and chose to absorb it indirectly.

After calming down, Wu Xin continued, "Because I foresaw the terrifying difficulty of refining and absorbing divine blood, I gave up on directly absorbing divine blood."

"I choose to use the Giant Saint Cloth as a medium to refine the divine blood through indirect absorption."

"In the end, the divinity contained in the divine blood was absorbed by the Saint Cloth, while I absorbed most of the energy of the divine blood to improve myself."

"Therefore, despite having the same refined divine blood, my physical strength is far inferior to that of Radamanthys of Tianmeng Star."

"So that's how it is!" Pegasus finally understood everything.

“It seems this Tianmeng Star will have to be handled by you!” Odysseus glanced at Wuxin again.

“Yes, leave it to me!” Wu Xin did not refuse.

Originally, according to his plan, Radamanthys of the Heavenly Fierce Star was his opponent.

With his current strength, even if he can't kill that dragon, he can still maintain an undefeated situation.

But if someone else were to face that dragon, the outcome would be uncertain.

"However, I'll stay behind to hold off Tianmengxing, and the rest of the journey will depend on the two of you!" Wuxin looked at the two of them solemnly.

Having reached this point, Sasha was left with only himself, Pegasus, and Odysseus, but there were still four more demon palaces to pass through.

Odysseus smiled and waved his hand, saying, "I'm fine. As long as I don't encounter a strange guy like Tiankui Xing, I'll definitely be able to protect myself."

"Tianma is a bit worrying, though!"

As he spoke, he glanced at Pegasus with concern.

Pegasus's strength is not outstanding among the Seventh Senses, and he would definitely be no match for Demon Star, who is empowered by planetary forces.

This point has already been demonstrated in previous encounters with the guardians of the Demon Palace.

"You don't need to worry about Pegasus!"

Sasha looked ahead and gently shook her head, saying, "He has his own destiny!"

She could already sense that behind Saturn's Demon Palace, in the Seventh Uranus Demon Palace, there was a familiar microcosm.

Her intuition told her that there must be some special connection between that little universe and Pegasus.

Upon hearing this, Wu Xin suddenly remembered that Pegasus's mother, Night Owl Partita, also existed in the Nine Star Demon Palace.

That's Pegasus's destined opponent, so there's really no need for them to worry about it.

“But there is another demon palace behind us, and we have no one left to help Lord Sasha share the cost of passing through! Please slow down, my lord, and do not try to force your way through alone!” Wuxin said solemnly to the girl.

He had no doubt about Sasha's strength; in this Nine Star Demon Palace, no one could stop the reincarnation of this goddess.

However, when no one shares the cost of passage, a single person passing through the Demon Palace will inevitably bear a significant reduction in their strength.

Although it was unknown how much this weakening would be, Wuxin did not want Sasha to gamble on the outcome.

Hades was already powerful, and even the Goddess of War could only barely match him. If they were to rashly storm the Nine Star Demon Palace and face Hades with a weakened state, the outcome would be predictable.

"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing! You don't need to worry!"

Sasha glanced at the three of them and said, "On the contrary, you should all be careful!"

"Don't let carelessness lead to your downfall at the hands of the Specters!"

"I hope that after I defeat Hades, I can see everyone again and lead you all back to the Sanctuary!"

"Most definitely!"

Wu Xin and the other two nodded in unison.

Although everyone knew it was unlikely, everyone was hoping for a miracle and that everyone could return to the Sanctuary safely.

As they were talking, the group had already arrived outside the Saturn Demon Palace.

The entire Demon Palace was shrouded in an extremely wild and fierce aura, completely different from the scorching Demon Palace where Tianbao Star was located.

"Let's go see that 'old friend'!"

Wu Xin stepped forward and placed his hand on the tightly closed gates of the Demon Palace.

rumble!

With just a little force, the two stone doors slowly opened inwards.

Of course, it didn't take much effort for Wuxin, but for others, such a stone gate was quite heavy, so they couldn't do it as easily as he did.

As the gates of the Demon Palace were opened, the pent-up wild energy within immediately poured out, causing the group to momentarily halt in their tracks.

Even Pegasus's expression changed drastically, and he was terrified.

"Still too weak!"

Wu Xin saw this and couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

Such a celestial horse is of little use whatsoever.

Fortunately, there was still Night Owl Partita behind him, so he didn't need to worry about that.

Then, he strode forward and walked into the depths of the Demon Palace.

Tianma and the others followed closely behind, their expressions serious, already on high alert.

Before long, the group arrived at the center of the Demon Palace's main hall.

There sat Rhadamanthus, the Heavenly Fierce Star, with his hands on his knees and his chin resting on them, coldly staring at the group of people who had entered.

Like the other Specters, he also has a miniature purple six-pointed star magic circle between his eyebrows, and the character '土' (earth) is printed in the center of the magic circle.

The already powerful Tianmeng Star gained even more strength after obtaining planetary power.

Wu Xin could clearly see that the overflowing power of the microcosm on Radamanthys' body had almost solidified into a tangible form, vaguely resembling a flying dragon.

Upon seeing the group arrive, the phantom of the flying dragon immediately let out a deafening roar.

"Hooho-"
