Chapter 348: Chapter 175: Dohko’s Resolution, The Misopetha-Menos! (Part 2)

"Dohko, your opponent is me!"

Just then, a figure walked into the Libra Temple, blocking the path of Sisyphus and the others.

It was none other than Shion, clad in the Aries Surplice!

His face was as calm as still water. Looking at the rejuvenated Dohko, a barely imperceptible ripple flashed in his eyes, but it was immediately covered by an empty, deathly stillness.

"Dohko..."

Shion’s voice was deep and unfamiliar.

"It has been 243 years. Believe in me one more time! Step aside, or... die!"

"Shion!"

Dohko’s furious roar exploded like thunder, the anger in his heart completely erupting.

"You traitor! Did 243 years result in nothing but betrayal?"

He wasted no more words. Clenching his fists tightly, the Libra Gold Cloth erupted with a dazzling light.

Dohko did not even use his weapons, directly unleashing the Rozan Hyaku Ryu Ha (One Hundred Dragons of Rozan)!

A hundred giant dragons roared as they lunged at Shion!

Shion similarly burned his powerful Cosmo. His purple-black Surplice flickered with light as starlight gathered between his palms!

Stardust Revolution met the attack head-on!

Boom!

The two comrades who had fought side-by-side 243 years ago—representing the pride of the Sanctuary’s previous era, the Pope and the Libra Saint—finally collided at this moment in the most intense and resolute manner!

The terrifying energy shockwave instantly swept across the plaza of the Libra Temple, forcing Sisyphus and the others to temporarily retreat and avoid its sharp edge!

"I’ll hold him off; you all go on ahead! Hurry, there isn’t much time left!"

Shion had just concluded his battle with Mu. His Surplice was covered in cracks, but even so, he had not given up on fighting!

Kardia watched the two in fierce combat, the scarlet poison needle at his fingertip quietly lighting up.

Sisyphus placed a hand on his shoulder and shook his head. The group dashed out of the Libra Temple, feeling their way along the path as they hurried toward the Scorpio Temple!

It had been 243 years, and the paths of the sacred mountain had been rebuilt countless times. Having lost their sight, they found every single step to be incredibly difficult!

Before long, a voice rang out!

"Senior Kardia, your opponent is me."

The five raised their sightless eyes. In their perception, a giant golden scorpion exuding a powerful threat blocked their path.

The current Scorpio Gold Saint, Milo, had appeared on their path of advance at some unknown time.

Wearing a bright red cape, his ice-blue eyes—like the purest ice—locked tightly onto Kardia.

Scarlet light gathered at his fingertip, his gaze as sharp as a needle.

Kardia looked at Milo, sensing a Cloth containing the same lethal poison as his own.

Feeling the other party’s undisguised fighting spirit and resolve, the corners of Kardia’s mouth slowly curled up into a wild smile—the kind of excitement that only surfaced when meeting a worthy opponent.

"Interesting! Kid, state your name!"

Kardia pointed at Milo, the red light at his fingertip growing even brighter.

"Scorpio Gold Saint, Milo!"

"Hahahaha! Good! Then let me see if the inheritor of this generation’s Scarlet Needle is qualified!"

Kardia let out a wild laugh. His figure transformed into a burning flame, instantly charging up the steps.

"Take this! Scarlet Needle: Katakeo Antares!"

A scarlet beam of light, capable of burning through the soul, shot straight for Milo’s vital heart like the gaze of the grim reaper!

Milo’s eyes were as sharp as an eagle’s, and his fingertip similarly lit up with a lethal scarlet light: "Scarlet Needle!"

The exact same starting posture, the exact same core ultimate technique!

Two Scarlet Needles, symbolizing the absolute penetration and destruction of Scorpio, crashed into each other with a resounding boom on the stairs leading from the Libra Temple to the Scorpio Temple in an instant!
