Becoming a Saint Seiya since the Age of Mythology

He knew very well that he wouldn't have time to get up and fight before Wuxin arrived.

His best option is to use his bat clones to dodge the next attack or even escape.

As for retaliation, he no longer dared to think about it.

However, even gathering his cosmic power was extremely difficult for him due to his severe injuries. Before he could complete the preparations for creating his clone bat, Wuxin had already rushed in front of him.

"it's over!"

"Accumulated Corpse Qi - Ghostly Azure Flame"

He expressionlessly tossed the flame from his palm down.

boom!

The instant the fire touched Tian Shouxing, it was like a spark falling into a pool of oil; flames shot into the sky and engulfed the entire body.

"what--"

"You damned bastard!"

"Lord Tianlaoxing will definitely not let you go!"

The Celestial Longevity Star struggled desperately in the fire, letting out unwilling roars and curses, but in the end, it was burned to ashes by the Ghostly Azure Flame.

After clearing away the ghost messengers, Pegasus seemed to have discovered something and forcefully punched the sky.

Pegasus Meteor Fist

In an instant, countless meteors appeared, transforming into a torrential rain that bombarded the sky.

Wu Xin was somewhat surprised and immediately looked up at the sky, only to see a small bat dodging left and right in the meteor shower, quickly fleeing into the distance.

"not good!"

Wu Xin immediately understood that it must be a contingency plan left behind by the God of Longevity.

Although they didn't know what it was, it was definitely not a good thing for them.

"Sekishiki - Netherworld Wave"

He made a swift move, and five streams of corpse energy flew from his fingertips, rushing towards the small bat in the sky, like hungry pythons opening their bloody mouths at their weak prey.

Unfortunately, Tian Shouxing did it too secretly, and by the time he discovered it, the little bat had already flown very high.

Even though Wu Xin used all his strength to continuously drive the accumulated corpse energy upwards to catch it, he still couldn't catch the little bat. He could only watch helplessly as it disappeared into the sky.

Damn it!

Upon seeing this, Wuxin was so angry that he stomped his foot on the ground.

boom!

In an instant, the ground within a radius of tens of meters cracked and sank a large section, forming a huge pit centered on him.

Then, he looked at Pegasus who had come to join him and said seriously, "Pegasus, perhaps we need to adjust our plans!"

"Senior, how would you like to make the adjustments?" Pegasus was unusually serious.

Calming his anxious heart, Wu Xin let out a long breath and said, "That little bat escaped, and our information may very well have been transmitted."

"This also means that our disguises will no longer be able to fool the Specters as easily as before."

"We must be prepared to be discovered and ready to fight at any time."

"Yes, I understand!" Pegasus nodded solemnly.

"Besides that, there's one more thing!"

Wu Xin paused for a moment, then said solemnly, "If we encounter an insurmountable enemy, I will do my best to lure them away and provide you with a chance to escape."

"However, this means you'll have to go to the Blood Falls alone."

"That won't do!"

Tenma immediately objected, clenching his fist and saying, "No matter what, I will not abandon you and run away alone, senior!"

"I want to fight alongside you!"

"Even if I die in battle, I will have no regrets!"

"No!"

Wu Xin shook his head and said seriously, "You have more important tasks to complete. You cannot, and should not, die here!"

"Don't forget why we deliberately came to this depths of hell!"

As he spoke, he gave Pegasus a deep look.

"But...but..."

Upon recalling the demon-suppressing prayer beads that Wuxin had mentioned, Tianma was speechless.

Reason told him that he should choose to save himself and successfully obtain the fruit of the mulberry tree, but emotionally, he still found it difficult to accept the plan of sacrificing his own heart to save himself.

"Alright, that's settled then!"

Wu Xin patted Tianma on the shoulder, finalizing the next course of action.

Of course, he was not a noble or selfless person; the reason he came up with such a plan was entirely based on his own abilities.

The speed of light is a very special standard; even in this world, gods cannot break the speed of light.

This is the information Wuxin learned during his time cultivating in the Holy Realm.

It is precisely because of this that the Gold Saints who have awakened the Seventh Sense have the right to fight against the gods.

There won't be a situation like the Silver Saints overwhelming the Bronze Saints with a huge speed difference.

Of course, this is merely a qualification.

While there may be no difference in speed, in terms of strength, the Gold Saints with the Seventh Sense are far inferior to the gods.

Now, in the Garden of Rain, thanks to the blessing of the Queen of the Underworld, Wu Xin's strength has greatly increased, and with the help of the Giant Saint Cloth, he has reached a speed of nearly 800,000 times the speed of sound.

While not enough to fight off enemies with the Seventh Sense, it would suffice to buy time.

After all, the speed of light in the Seventh Sense is only about 880,000 times the speed of sound, so the difference between the two is not significant.

Furthermore, the unique Moon Essence Water of the Giant Saint Cloth can heal wounds, so Wuxin was fully confident in escaping from the Seventh Sense enemy. This was the source of his confidence in devising this bait plan.

Then, led by Wuxin, the two continued their journey along the River Styx.

"Listen, Pegasus!"

As he walked, he pointed to the river beside him and said, "This is the River Styx of Hell, connecting the human world and the underworld, guiding the dead from the human world into Hell. It is a strange river that flows in one direction only."

"That's why we can determine direction by observing the flow of the River Styx."

The flow of the River Styx draws the deathly aura of the entire hell deeper into hell, and it is for this reason that Wuxin can determine the direction by the flow of the deathly aura.

He continued speaking to Pegasus, "If we travel against the current along this River Styx, we can reach the boundary between the Sixth and Seventh Hells and see that great waterfall of blood."

"Once I act as bait to lure the enemy away, you will have no guide and will need to find your own way."

"The River Styx is your best guide!"

"Yes, I understand, senior!" Tenma replied heavily.

Wu Xin then reminded him, "You have no way to return to the human world, so after you arrive at the Blood Falls, you need to continue to hide yourself and not be discovered by the Specters!"

"Once I've shaken off the enemy, I'll come back to join you!"

"Yes, I will definitely protect myself!" Pegasus nodded bitterly.

He didn't want to be the one being protected, but given the circumstances, there was nothing he could do.

He had no better choice than to protect himself and avoid becoming a burden.

Chapter 70 Strict Secrecy

As Wuxin and the other person continued to approach the Great Waterfall of Blood, they gradually noticed that the number of ghost messengers and Specters patrolling the road seemed to have decreased.

"Have they given up?" Tianma asked, somewhat puzzled.

"No, I think they've reduced their forces and laid out a more solid blockade ahead of us!" Wu Xin shook his head.

Hell is too vast; even the underworld officials and Specters could not possibly conduct a thorough search of it.

Therefore, the best approach is to consolidate our forces and establish a more robust blockade.

He was almost certain that the commander of the entire Seventh Prison, Sky Prison Star Gordon, was waiting for them ahead.

Thinking of this, he said seriously to Tianma, "The enemy is tightening their defenses, which means it will be more difficult, or even impossible, for us to sneak around them."

"I think the time for me to implement that bait plan is coming soon!"

"Isn't it unnecessary for now, senior?"

Upon hearing this, Tianma was immediately startled and quickly said, "Even if the enemy contracts their defenses, it doesn't mean that the entire defense line is filled with enemies that we can't handle."

"As long as we avoid the strongest one and find a weak point to break through, we can easily get through!"

"It's not that simple!"

Wu Xin shook his head and sighed, "Following your method, we can indeed easily cross the enemy's blockade line."

"But have you thought about what happens after that?"

"What, after that?" Pegasus paused, taken aback.

Wu Xin continued, "We'll cross the blockade, but that also means our whereabouts will be exposed, and the commander of the Seventh Hell will follow closely behind."

"What should we do then?"

"This……"

Tianma's expression immediately changed.

He only thought about avoiding the enemy and crossing the blockade line, but he hadn't considered the possibility of being pursued by the enemy.

Because their mission didn't end just by crossing the blockade line.

They must continue onward to reach the Great Falls of Blood.

If the enemy pursues, even if the blockade line is temporarily broken, it will be meaningless.
