Not far away, a familiar white pavilion came into view.

Inside the pavilion, the lady in black veil was leisurely sipping red tea, chatting and laughing with the little fairies beside her.

"The Second Prison?"

He immediately realized that he had returned to the Rain Garden in the Second Prison.

However, he had no memory of how he returned. He only vaguely remembered that he was severely injured by a purple lightning bolt from the enemy and fell unconscious in the River Styx.

It seems that the lady in the garden noticed his situation and took the initiative to rescue him.

At the same time, seeing that Wuxin had awakened, the many little flower fairies in the flower bushes became excited.

"Master, Master, he's awake!"

They flapped their little wings vigorously and flew happily to the pavilion to deliver the message.

Chapter 106 Hidden Dangers Remain

"Oh, I see!"

The woman in the black veil nodded, put down her teacup, and looked at Wuxin with a leisurely air.

"Greetings, madam!"

Wu Xin strode to the outside of the pavilion and bowed, saying, "Thank you for your help, madam. Otherwise, I'm afraid I would have dissolved into the River Styx!"

"No need to thank me, consider this a reward for your mission!"

The woman in black waved her hand dismissively, saying with a playful tone, "However, you're quite bold, daring to refine the power of the Styx River for your own use."

"Little did you know, from the moment you refined the power of the Styx, you would never be able to escape the Styx for the rest of your life!"

Even if you die, your soul and flesh will return to the River Styx and become part of it!

Upon hearing this, Wuxin immediately recalled the chains that had deeply connected him when he tried to escape the River Styx.

He quickly checked his body, but found no trace of the chains.

"Thank you for your help, madam, which freed me from the shackles of the River Styx!" He bowed again to the pavilion in gratitude.

"You're celebrating too soon, kid!"

The woman in black veil rested her chin on her hand, a half-smile on her face, and said, "Your connection with the River Styx is linked by cause and effect."

"The power of the Styx you refined is the cause, and ultimately returning to the Styx is your effect."

"Although I have severed the physical chains binding you and allowed you to leave the River Styx, the karmic connection between you and the River Styx remains, and the outcome will not change."

"So that's how it is!" Wu Xin's expression turned much more serious.

But he quickly adjusted his mindset.

"In any case, being able to temporarily escape the River Styx and gain freedom is enough! As for my karma with the River Styx, we'll talk about that later!" he replied with a smile.

If he cannot escape the River Styx, he will die sooner or later if he stays there.

As for the remaining hidden dangers, they do not pose a threat for the time being, and he doesn't need to worry about them at all.

The woman in black veil smiled enigmatically and said, "Just a heads-up, the physical chains binding you have only been temporarily severed by me."

"If you come into contact with the waters of the River Styx again, those divine chains will be restored and may even become stronger."

"By then, even I will be unable to save you!"

Upon hearing this, Wu Xin's expression tightened, and she immediately replied, "Thank you for reminding me, madam. I'll remember that!"

"But then again, how did you end up in that place? Didn't you go to the Seventh Hell?" the woman in black asked, puzzled.

Tartarus lies deeper in Hell, isolated by a special barrier that even the Specters cannot reach.

Logically speaking, Wuxin shouldn't be there.

"I do not know either!"

Wu Xin shook his head, somewhat helplessly saying, "After returning to the Fiery Hell, I successfully obtained the seed of the Blazing Soul Flame from the craftsman god Hephaestus."

"But on my way back, I was ambushed."

He was severely injured with a single blow and fell into the River Styx.

"When I woke up again, I found myself inexplicably in that dark place."

"The River Styx runs through the entire underworld, and it is indeed possible to enter there by using the River Styx as a passage!"

The woman in black suddenly realized what was happening and asked, "Who attacked you? Did you see clearly?"

“It seems to be Tiankui Star!” Wuxin replied with a serious expression.

Of course, he didn't expose Tian Kui Xing's hidden identity; it wasn't something he should know.

"I almost ruined my plans, damn it!"

The woman in black veil immediately raised her eyebrows, then looked to the right of the pavilion and coldly said to Orpheus, "Tell Pandora to bring me the head of Tiankui Star!"

"Yes!"

Orpheus stopped playing and immediately got up to leave to deliver orders.

However, Wuxin knew that Pandora was destined not to deliver the head of Tiankui Star.

Beneath that disguise of a Specter lies a god.

But after this incident, Tiankui Star will inevitably come into this lady's view.

If he doesn't want to be targeted, Tiankui Star will probably stay quiet for a long time to come.

"Where is the fire? Offer it up!" The woman in black veil turned to Wuxin and said.

"Yes!"

Wu Xin then opened his right hand, silently burning his microcosm and injecting the power of his microcosm into the mark on his palm.

As he continued to inject his cosmic power, the mark was slowly activated, and a ball of light slowly emerged, containing a pale blue flame.

"This is the fire you requested, madam!" Wu Xin presented the fire with both hands.

"Ok!"

The woman in black nodded and took the fire into her hand.

Immediately afterwards, Wu Xin saw the sphere of light enveloping the fire dissipate, and a pale blue flame fell into the woman's palm.

"Finally...this day has come!"

Looking at the flame in her palm, the woman in black veil was extremely excited.

She then channeled her inner power into the spark, further stimulating its power.

In an instant, the flame that was originally only the size of a candle flame suddenly swelled up, completely engulfing her in a pale blue flame.

"It's on fire, it's on fire!"

"Master, danger! Danger!"

Many little flower fairies immediately cried out anxiously, and four of them even lifted the teacups on the table, trying to extinguish the flames on the black-veiled lady with tea.

"Don't be alarmed! These flames can't harm me!"

The woman in black veil waved her hand to stop the panicked little flower fairies, and then instructed, "All of you step back, be careful not to get hurt by the flames on my body!"

"Yes!"

The many little flower fairies immediately obeyed and retreated far away.

Wu Xin didn't dare to linger upon seeing this, and followed the other little flower fairies to the side.

The woman in black veil did not stop, continuing to pour in her own inner universe, unleashing the power of the Blazing Heart Flame.

Soon, the entire pavilion burst into flames, turning to ashes in the pale blue fire.

Seeing that the flowers and plants around the pavilion were also withering, Ms. Black Sand immediately set up a barrier around the area to prevent the fire from spreading further.

Then, her attention returned to the flames, and she manipulated them to focus the heat on her legs, scorching the green vines that were wrapped around her calves.

However, those green vines were extremely resilient, remaining lush and green even under the scorching heat of the divine fire, as if they had not been affected at all.

But the woman in black did not give up, continuously injecting energy into the divine fire and patiently scorching the green vines on her legs.

After an unknown amount of time, the vine leaves on the woman's calves finally showed a hint of yellowing, which greatly encouraged her, and she continued to grit her teeth and persevere.

Although it was a bit slow, it ultimately gave her hope.

At this moment, Orpheus also returned, but he was empty-handed, clearly having failed to obtain the head of Tiankui Xing.

However, he wasn't worried at all, because he knew that the lady was accomplishing something important and wouldn't be distracted by such a small matter.

He stood quietly to the side with Wuxin, patiently waiting for the lady to achieve her goal.

Chapter 107 Four Gold Saints

With this free time, Wuxin finally had a chance to check on his physical condition.

He had been in the River Styx for so long, and he was worried that there might be other hidden dangers.

Immediately, he used his spiritual perception to carefully examine every inch of his skin and every muscle on his body.

It took about ten minutes for Wuxin to finally complete his self-examination.

"Is this just my imagination? My health has actually improved?" He was secretly amazed.

After a thorough examination, he confirmed that he had no hidden dangers or injuries, and all his wounds had been completely healed by the Holy Water of Moon Essence.

But that's not the point. The point is that Wuxin discovered that his physical functions had improved significantly.

Whether it's the speed of self-recovery, endurance, or ability to withstand blows, all have been significantly improved.

Now, even without using his Cosmo power, he can easily subdue a Saint Seiya candidate who has just mastered the Cosmo power with his physical body alone.

"Is this a blessing in disguise?" He found it somewhat unbelievable.

At that moment, he couldn't help but think of a legendary figure—Achilles.

He was a great hero from the Greek mythological era. His mother was the sea goddess Thetis, and his father was the great hero Peleus.
