Becoming a Saint Seiya since the Age of Mythology

Before they could react, a strange force acted on them, and their shared body began to change rapidly.

He seemed to be getting shorter and shorter, the calluses on his hands were disappearing quickly, and even the skin on his body was becoming smooth.

What terrified them even more was that their inner cosmos was also rapidly declining, soon falling to the seventh sense, and there was a continuing downward trend.

"Oh no, he's rewinding time for us!"

"You want us to go back to the way things were in the past!" Defteros exclaimed in surprise.

"Quickly, interrupt him!"

Aspros quickly issued a warning, and then the two brothers simultaneously launched an attack on Tiankui Star.

"Double Galactic Explosion"

He crossed his hands and raised them high above his head, and immediately a burst of intense light erupted from his hands.

Then, a dazzling galaxy materialized above Aspros's head, and under his control, countless stars bombarded his opponent.

However, before their attacks could even land on their opponents, their bodies shrank at an incredible speed.

First she became twenty years old, then nineteen, then eighteen, and before she knew it, she had regressed to under ten years old.

At this point, their inner universes reverted to a state of complete non-cultivation, making them impossible to activate or utilize. Even their attacks dissipated completely in front of Yaoma due to this regressed state.

"Stop struggling!"

"Just obediently turn into dust in the long river of time!" Yao Ma smirked smugly and continued to urge the clock face above Gemini's head to turn.

Before our eyes, Defteros's body completely degenerated from a boy into a child, and then from a child into an infant.

In the end, they could no longer even maintain the infant state. To the horror of the Defteros brothers, their bodies further degenerated into a fertilized egg, and then from the fertilized egg into the most basic biological proteins, until they disappeared completely.

"Pity!"

"Such a powerful Gemini is actually a subordinate of Athena!"

Looking at the time dial that had disappeared along with Defteros, Yoma let out a long sigh.

Saints as powerful as Gemini are rare even in the earlier mythological era. They are among the top mortals below the gods and the strongest henchmen under the gods.

If he didn't have mastery over time, it would be really difficult to win over a Gemini like him.

"Pity!"

He sighed again and immediately prepared to turn and leave.

But at that moment, Yao Ma suddenly realized that he still couldn't escape this sealed-off special alternate dimension.

"what?"

He immediately frowned.

Things took a turn for the better than he expected.

Before he could figure it out, the time dial that should have disappeared along with Gemini reappeared behind him.

"What's going on??" Yao Ma's expression changed immediately.

After so many days of fighting, this was the first time he realized that things were getting out of control.

Immediately afterwards, the hands on that clock face, which had been stationary, started to turn again, but in the completely opposite direction.

Time, which had been flowing backward, began to flow forward again, and began to return to its original state.

"No, that's impossible!"

Yao Ma exclaimed in surprise and hurriedly released his cosmic power in an attempt to regain control of time.

However, because he had forcibly reversed time before, it was as if he had compressed a powerful spring to its limit. At this moment, the spring's rebound was irreversible and carried a powerful backlash.

His cosmic power had barely approached the time dial when it was violently shaken away by the time vibrations, unable to get any closer. Even the surrounding time was affected, with small-scale temporal turbulence appearing.

That is something even gods must be careful of; once you get involved, you may get lost in different dimensions of time.

No matter how angry or unwilling he was, Yao Ma could only retreat quickly, getting away from the area where the time turbulence had occurred.

At this moment, as the time dial rapidly restored itself, some substances appeared in the previously empty space. These substances then formed biological proteins, which in turn transformed into cells, and from cells into an infant.

Eventually, the baby grew up quickly and returned to the appearance of Gemini Defteros.

Chapter 499 Spatial Anchoring

"Hu-hu-hu-"

Having transformed back into human form from the most basic particles of matter, Defteros gasped for breath, his heart filled with lingering fear.

He was so close to not coming back.

"This—this is impossible!!"

Yao Ma was extremely shocked.

To this day, he has never seen anyone survive his 'life reversal' technique.

Because that was an unstoppable attack, directly reversing the opponent's life time, sending them back to before they were born, turning them back into the most basic particles of matter, where even cells no longer exist. Even gods would be terrified by this move.

However, he saw an exception today: a human who had never mastered time actually survived his attack and reversed time to return to normal.

“It seems that not only is ‘time freeze’ useless against me, but your other time-related techniques are also useless against me!” A smile appeared on Defteros’s face.

The theory of the unity of space and time that Wuxin taught him was a great help.

Originally, he only wanted to anchor himself in space and take advantage of the unique nature of spacetime integration so that he would be aware of being 'time frozen' by someone else, and not die silently.

But after being tested by Tian Kui Xing's "Life Reversal" technique, he discovered that the theory of the unity of space and time was more useful than he had imagined.

When faced with that move 'Life Reversal', he was completely unable to interfere with his opponent's actions, let alone stop the reversal of time.

They could only watch helplessly as they went from being adults to teenagers, then from teenagers to infants, and finally to the most basic particles of matter.

At that time, he felt an unprecedented sense of powerlessness and despair, and even considered giving up.

But in that bottomless despair, he suddenly discovered that he was still attached to a spatial anchor chain, anchoring him to the space before the time reversal.

That was the 'Prison of Self' that he initially used to bind Tiankui Xing Yaoma.

From the very beginning, he used this move to anchor himself and his opponent. As long as he was alive, his opponent would never be able to break free from this spatial lock.

Originally, this move was just a technique to restrict the opponent, but at the moment when he was reversed in time, it produced an incredible effect.

Because he wasn't killed directly by Tiankui Xing Yaoma, but rather time was reversed, the spatial anchor chain on his body remained intact.

It was precisely through spatial anchoring that he had the basic conditions to pull himself back to normal time.

At the same time, since one is forced to rewind from normal time and enter a different time dimension, this will generate a rebound inertia.

It's like a spring that's normally compressed; it will then rebound and recover.

The Defteros brothers, by combining these two approaches, managed to bring themselves back to normal time.

At the same time, this rare experience also confirmed another thing for him.

Even if one doesn't understand time, as long as one anchors in space, coupled with the characteristic of time and space being one, it will be meaningless to the opponent whether they use time to stop, rewind, or accelerate.

From this moment on, he and Tiankui Xing Yaoma truly stood on the same starting line.

There was no way his opponent could defeat him using that strange power of time; he could only rely on his own strength to defeat him little by little.

"This is impossible!"

Faced with a situation completely beyond his control, Tiankui Xing Yaoma was on the verge of a breakdown.

"The torrent of time"

In a fit of rage, he once again unleashed his time-manipulation technique, and yet another time dial materialized from Defteros's body.

Defteros did not stop them; instead, he curled the corners of his mouth and stood quietly in place, letting his opponent do as he pleased.

However, he didn't understand the power of time, so even if he wanted to interfere with his opponent's manipulation, he simply couldn't.

Immediately afterwards, under Yao Ma's control, the time hovering above Defteros's head began to rotate rapidly, but this time it did not reverse, but accelerated forward.

He can use this move to accelerate time, causing his opponent to experience a scale that life cannot bear in an instant, ultimately leading to their complete annihilation in the torrent of time.

Before our eyes, Defteros's body was aging rapidly under the accelerated passage of time, going from middle age to old age, and then from old age to twilight years, beginning to decay and perish at an incredible speed.

However, just as Defteros was about to completely enter a state of decay, he suddenly pulled on the spatial anchor chain on his body.

"Now!"

Using the momentum of time reversal, Defteros did his best to pull himself back to the normal time dimension.

He knew very well that if something like this happened at this moment, Tiankui Star would inevitably be devoured by time.

This was the opportunity he had been searching for.

And just as he had predicted, Deferros suddenly yanked the spatial anchor chain, and the Celestial Star, which was accelerating the flow of time, was like a speeding truck suddenly crashing into a roadblock.

In that instant, the powerful resistance shook him to his core, and as he forcibly accelerated normal time, the rebound of time also erupted at that moment.

"Um--"

He groaned, and a blush immediately appeared at the corner of his mouth.

He was consumed by time.

The person's movements involuntarily stopped, and their mind went blank for a brief moment.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Defteros, who had returned to normal time, launched a decisive attack.

You should know that he wasn't alone, but rather there were two of them.

While he was facing the 'flow of time' head-on, his brother Aspros was secretly preparing a fatal blow.

Because of their teamwork, their counterattack had absolutely no openings.

"Your time has come to an end, Tiankui Star!"

Aspros stepped forward and delivered a heavy punch to Tiankui Xing, who was still recovering from the backlash.

"The Passage of God"

He had never used this move in front of Tian Kui Xing before, saving it for the last moment when he was absolutely certain of killing his opponent.

In an instant, behind Tiankui Xingyao Ma, the dimensional space cracked open again, and a huge cylindrical channel appeared, with neat square stripes inside.
