Chapter 356: Chapter 179: Dividing into Three Forces, The Battle of the Underworld! (Part 2)

In order to save Miss Saori, the five of them had escorted her to the Sanctuary and forcefully broken through the Twelve Temples of the Zodiac. Between the Scorpio and Sagittarius Temples, the Ophiuchus Temple had suddenly and mysteriously appeared, and it was Alex who had completely suppressed it.

Comparing that to their current understanding of the Gold Saints’ true strength, the five core Bronze Saints could not help but feel a bit ashamed. Back then, they truly did not know the true strength of gold saints.

"So, teacher, were you already planning for today back then?"

Hyoga’s blue eyes brightened. He clenched his fists, his gaze filled with fascination and reverence.

Not only did his teacher possess te strength to suppress an entire era, but his strategic foresight was also incredibly profound. As early as their very first arrival at the Sanctuary, he had already laid down an earth-shattering chessboard for the final Holy War!

Facing Hyoga’s worshipful gaze, Alex calmly nodded.

"The hidden backup plan I laid down requires the Goddess’s divine blood as a catalyst to activate. Once successful, it can rescue the heroic spirits of the past Gold Saints suppressed within the Underworld’s Cocytus!"

Alex looked at Mu and Aldebaran.

"Mu, use your psychokinesis to construct defenses for them. Aldebaran, your physical strength is tyrannical; you need to block the interference from the Titans."

Mu and Aldebaran nodded.

"You five must protect the Goddess’s blood and stop the endless attacks from the Specters!" Alex instructed the Bronze Saints. "My backup plan requires time to activate. Once you successfully awaken the sealed heroic spirits of the past Saints, we will gain an undead army capable of shaking the gods!"

The Saints were rendered completely speechless, thoroughly shocked by the grand scheme Alex had laid out across time.

At this moment, all remaining doubts about him in everyone’s hearts vanished entirely.

Even Dohko chuckled and shook his head.

"You kid... you even calculated what would happen after that guy Shion died!"

"By the way, you’ve arranged everything perfectly for us, but what are you going to do?"

"I..."

Alex stood with his back to the crowd, the corners of his mouth curling up slightly.

"I am going to snipe the gods... The God of Death and the God of Sleep will be my hunting targets!"

He turned around, his eyes as sharp as swords, as if piercing through the heavy layers of the Underworld directly to that eternal dark royal court: Elysium!

"The Battle of the Underworld is about to officially begin right now! It is not only to rescue Athena but also to eliminate future troubles forever! Even more so, it is to allow this earth to regain the freedom and peace that truly belongs to humanity!"

"The mission of the Saints will be completely rewritten by our hands!"

Inside the Pope’s Chamber, the air seemed to solidify before being thoroughly ignited by a fighting spirit burning to its absolute limit.

The confusion and grief in the eyes of all the Saints present vanished entirely. Taking their place was a point-of-no-return resolution and an unprecedentedly high, soaring fighting spirit!

Golden, azure, and crimson Cosmos erupted violently, responding to Alex’s declaration in their own respective ways.

Dohko, Saga, and the other six Gold Saints did not hesitate in the slightest. Transforming into eight golden meteors that tore through the darkness, they relied on their Eighth Sense Cosmos to directly enter Yomotsu Hirasaka!

Alex condensed the divine blood into a small cube and handed it to Seiya.

"Seiya, the Pegasus Saint is the only one capable of harming the true body of the King of the Underworld. I am entrusting the Goddess’s blood to you. After releasing the heroic spirits of the past, advance toward the deepest part of the Underworld as quickly as possible! Saori Kido is waiting for you there!"

Seiya nodded. Mu, Aldebaran, and the other four Bronze Saints surrounded him. Unleashing the full power of their Cosmos, everyone transformed into streams of light and entered the Underworld!

Having comprehended the Eighth Sense, the Saints could now break through the barrier between life and death and enter the Underworld with their physical bodies!

Alex stored Athena’s headless divine body into his inventory space, and his figure disappeared from the peak of the Sanctuary...
