Becoming a Saint Seiya since the Age of Mythology

"Because of my recent actions, we don't have much time left! Pegasus, hurry up and make the Mulan Tree bloom and bear fruit!" Asmita floated out and said.

"Yes, my lord!"

Pegasus nodded and walked to a large tree next to the waterfall.

It was a large, verdant tree growing on the edge of a cliff. Its thick branches, like nails, were deeply embedded in the rock face, which prevented it from falling off the cliff.

In fact, on the surface, it is nothing special and no different from some old trees in the human world.

But what's strange about it is that it grows in such a special environment as hell.

This is the underworld, filled with filthy death energy, a forbidden place for all normal life. The fact that it can grow here proves its uniqueness.

Looking up at the dense canopy, Pegasus suppressed his excitement and placed one hand on the trunk, burning his cosmos and pouring his cosmic power into it, attempting to resonate with the divine tree.

Behind them, Wuxin whispered to Virgo, "Excuse me, sir, how do you know that only a celestial horse can catalyze this divine tree to flower and bear fruit?"

"Because before Pegasus arrived here, we had already tested it many times! Not a single Saint's Cosmo could resonate with this divine tree!"

Asmita shook his head helplessly and added, "As for why it must be Pegasus, we don't know either."

"That's what the divine messenger who sent us the method for forging the Demon-Suppressing Prayer Beads told us."

"A divine messenger?"

Wu Xin frowned upon hearing this and pressed further, "You came in a rather rushed manner before, and the Pope did not offer any explanation."

"I would like to ask, who exactly is that divine messenger?"

The method of forging the demon-suppressing prayer beads sent by this divine messenger was crucial, but he was completely unaware of it.

This truly piqued Wuxin's curiosity.

Ashmita looked thoughtful and slowly said, "I have also asked the Pope about this question, but the Pope said he did not know the origin of that messenger either."

All we know is that the divine messenger called himself the 'Welcoming Spring Messenger'.

“The Spring Welcoming Envoy? It sounds like it’s related to the seasons. Could it be under the command of a god who controls time?” Wu Xin immediately had a guess.

Titles are not given arbitrarily, especially for people like divine messengers.

Titles often represent their special identifiers.

"Perhaps! If you have the chance in the future, you can ask him!" Asmita sighed softly, not really caring. His attention was mostly focused on the Pegasus in front of him.

At this moment, Pegasus continuously poured his cosmic power into the divine tree, but still failed to resonate with it.

All the power of his inner universe that he poured in was like mud sinking into the ocean, making no ripple.

"Why is there no movement?"

"That shouldn't be the case!"

"Sasha, the Pope, and Senior Wuxin wouldn't lie to me!" Pegasus withdrew his hand in frustration, feeling extremely down and experiencing severe self-doubt.

Seeing this, Asmita couldn't help but remind him, "It's because your cosmic power is too weak, so it's not enough to make the divine tree resonate with you."

"Then may I ask, sir, what kind of microcosm do I need to reach to make the divine tree blossom and bear fruit?" Pegasus asked expectantly as he turned around.

“You need to push your inner universe to its limit, at least to the peak of your sixth sense!” Asmita replied earnestly.

"This...this is impossible!" Pegasus exclaimed in shock.

Currently, he has only just reached the threshold of the Silver level, and is still a long way from the peak of the Sixth Sense.

This is not something that can be achieved in a short period of time.

Nothing is impossible!

Asmita shook his head and said seriously, "The power of the microcosm needs the guidance of spiritual power, and spiritual power comes from each person's spiritual will, or rather, their mind!"

"The stronger one's mental power, the stronger one's inner cosmic power will naturally be!"

"But if you think it's impossible for you, and you deny the condition in your mind from the very beginning, putting a mental shackle on yourself, then it really will never be possible!"

"So the power of the microcosm has such a secret!" Wuxin was astonished upon hearing this.

Although he knew a lot of things, this was the first time he had ever heard of what Asmita had just described.

Ashmita continued, “Human emotions are constantly changing, not constant, and the power of the human mind naturally fluctuates as well.”

"It is very strong when you are excited, and very weak when you are depressed."

"This also means that the strength of each person's inner cosmos will vary depending on their mood during battle!"

"So that's how it is! So that's how it is!" Wuxin suddenly realized.

No wonder people's inner power explodes so powerfully when they get excited.

After all that, it turns out that the power of the cosmos itself also has a kind of idealistic attribute.

However, on the other hand, in his original world, 'idealism' refers to illusion and fantasy, but here, 'idealism' truly exists and can indeed demonstrate its power.

The same word can have two completely different meanings in two different worlds.

"Thank you for your guidance, sir!"

Upon hearing the teachings, Pegasus's previous disappointment and frustration vanished, and he immediately placed his hand on the trunk of the divine tree again.

"Burn, my inner universe!"

He roared and once again ignited his inner universe, desperately channeling its power into the divine tree.

It must be said that Asmita's guidance was very helpful. Pegasus' confidence soared, and he became extremely excited. This time, the power of his cosmos far exceeded that of before.

110,000 times the speed of sound, 120,000 times the speed of sound, 130,000 times the speed of sound...

His cosmic power surged, quickly reaching nearly 200,000 times the speed of sound, but it was still a long way from catalyzing the divine tree to blossom and bear fruit.

"It still doesn't work!"

Upon seeing this, Wuxin spoke up to remind him, "Pegasus, don't directly inject your cosmic power!"

"Treat the divine tree before you as your enemy, unleash the power of your inner universe, and launch your strongest attack at it!"

Chapter 76 Asmita (Part 1)

"Won't this damage the divine tree, senior?" Pegasus turned around in surprise.

“Don’t worry, with your strength, you are not enough to destroy the divine tree!” Asmita replied.

Long before Tianma arrived, several of their Gold Saints, including him, had tried to catalyze the Divine Tree to bloom and bear fruit, but they all failed and did not manage to harm the Divine Tree in the slightest.

Given Pegasus's current strength, it's also impossible for it to harm the Divine Tree.

"Well, I see!"

Pegasus nodded, immediately took a few steps back, and then began to gather strength in his fist.

Immediately afterwards, Wuxin clearly felt that the Pegasus's cosmic energy was rapidly increasing and becoming stronger.

When that aura reached its peak, Pegasus unleashed a long-awaited punch at the trunk of the divine tree in front of him.

Pegasus Comet Fist

Unlike his usual 'Meteor Fist', this 'Comet Fist' is more concentrated and therefore more powerful.

Before our eyes, a silver glow appeared on his fist, like a falling comet, striking the trunk of the Mulanzi Divine Tree.

boom!

With a deafening roar, the comet burst into a dazzling silver light, completely engulfing the entire tree.

However, as the radiance faded, the divine tree remained unchanged, showing no signs of blossoming or bearing fruit. Instead, Pegasus's gauntlet shattered, and bright red blood flowed from his fist.

He still failed.

"How could this happen!" Pegasus's heart sank to the bottom.

All the hopes of everyone rested on his shoulders, and he was full of confidence and enthusiasm, wanting to share the pressure with Sasha and contribute to the Holy Land, but reality gave him a cruel slap in the face.

He has let everyone down!

Wu Xin whispered, "Lord Asmita, Pegasus's basic strength is still insufficient. Even with his maximum burst of power, it's still difficult to reach the limit of the Sixth Sense!"

"Has His Holiness the Pope taken any remedial measures?"

He believed that Pope Sage and his associates could not possibly be unaware of this and should have other preparations in place.

"Have!"

Asmita nodded and said seriously, "However, that's not a good method for Pegasus!"

"I don't want to use it unless absolutely necessary!"

"But given the current situation, I have no other choice!"

As he spoke, he slowly floated towards the Pegasus.

"What are you planning to do?" Wu Xin asked curiously.

Asmita replied calmly, "The power of the cosmos is related to the power of the mind, and the power of the mind is related to emotions. All we need to do is raise Pegasus's emotions to an extremely high level!"

"For example, hatred is an emotion that can be easily stirred up!"

As he spoke, he formed a hand seal and slowly released a burst of cosmic power, silently enveloping the Pegasus.

If he hadn't been a third party, Wuxin would have been completely unaware of Asmita's actions.

Or perhaps, the other party never intended to hide it from him at all.

Upon hearing these words, Wuxin finally understood what Asmita and the Pope were planning to do.

"I see!" He nodded.

Virgo Asmita, like him, was adept at using the power of the soul.

However, unlike Wuxin and the others who are skilled at direct killing with their accumulated corpse energy, Asmita is more adept at manipulating souls.

For example, the opponent's ultimate move, "Six Paths of Reincarnation," is a move that directly traps the opponent's soul and will, and then uses six kinds of hellish punishments to wear down the opponent's soul and will.

If the opponent cannot withstand the onslaught of the Six Paths of Reincarnation, their soul will be obliterated and their will will collapse, just like the Heavenly Prison Star who was previously affected.

Even if they manage to withstand it, their soul and will be severely damaged, resulting in a significant reduction in their strength.

Based on this kind of control, Asmita was naturally also skilled in illusions and deception.
