Chapter 182 : Hades takes over another body, Li Yu ambushes!
Deathmask's weak, yet clear shouts, like a lighthouse in the darkness, instantly pointed the way for the Saints.
"Over there!"
Seiya's eyes blazed with light as he pointed in the direction of the voice.
The seven of them, like arrows shot from a bow, charged deep into the ice field, enduring the Specters' frantic counterattacks!
However, just as they were about to approach Deathmask's frozen location, an unexpected change occurred!
Boom!
The endless ice field of Cocytus trembled violently, as if an ancient giant beast had suddenly awakened!
A teeth-grinding cracking sound came from the ice, followed by an unimaginably huge rock foot, walking from a distance, shaking the earth with every step!
This giant's body was covered in arms, and its head had dozens of them!
"It's Briareus, the Hundred-Handed Giant who guards Cocytus!"
Mr. Mu's face changed drastically; he recognized this legendary monster of the Underworld.
Briareus, the Hundred-Handed Giant, was a descendant of Uranus, the God of Sky, and Gaia, Mother Earth. Although he did not obtain divinity or ascend to godhood, he was still a powerful being far surpassing ordinary Specters!
"Little bugs, this is my territory, all of you obediently stay here!"
Briareus stretched out dozens of huge arms and grabbed at the crowd; human bodies were not even bigger than one of his fingers.
"Seiya, you go first, Aldebaran and I will block him!"
Mr. Mu shouted, the aquarius gold cloth shone brightly, and layers of crystal clear Crystal Wall instantly unfolded in front of him, forming an indestructible barrier to meet the world-destroying giant palm!
"Leave it to us! Seiya, Titan's Nova!"
Aldebaran roared, burning his Cosmo to the extreme, using the latest ultimate technique he had just learned from Hadesgate!
His massive body transformed into a golden giant bull, standing in front of the Bronze Five.
His fists became a pair of bull horns, carrying the power to crush stars, and he slammed them head-on into the giant palm!
Boom!!
A deafening roar exploded on the ice field!
Mr. Mu's Crystal Wall shattered inch by inch under the terrifying power of the two, turning into a sky full of crystalline powder!
Mr. Mu grunted, blood spilling from the corner of his mouth, his body sent flying backward by the huge impact, but the layers of defense he constructed ultimately bought them precious time!
Aldebaran's Titan's Nova struck the edge of the giant palm, and the violent force caused the giant palm's trajectory to shift, sweeping past the heads of the Bronze Five and crashing down, shattering a large area of the ice field, ice shards swirling like a storm, and a magnificent rainbow appeared over Cocytus!!
"Mr. Mu! Aldebaran!"
Seiya and the others' eyes were splitting with rage.
"We're fine! Go find Deathmask quickly!"
Mr. Mu struggled to his feet, burning his Cosmo again, his psychokinesis transforming into invisible ropes, tightlyentanglement the Hundred-Eyed Giant's arm as he tried to raise it again.
Aldebaran roared, using his body to firmly hold back another finger of the giant; the Taurus Gold Cloth groaned under such immense force!
Taking advantage of the momentary gap created by the two Gold Saints with their lives.
The Bronze Five gritted their teeth, unleashed their last strength, and like five meteors, rushed to where Deathmask was frozen!
"Deathmask!"
"I'm here!"
Deathmask shouted loudly, his eyes filled with hope, his disheveled hair particularly noticeable on the vast ice field!
Just as Seiya and the others arrived beside Deathmask, a wisp of golden light suddenly appeared from beneath the ice field, and the ice crystal cube in Seiya's hand glowed!
The ice crystal emitted infinite light, and wherever the light shone, the millennia-old ice of Cocytus began to slowly melt.
Deathmask was the first to benefit; in just a moment, his arms were unfrozen, and he let out a surprised cry.
"Haha, I'm finally free!"
More heroic souls, feeling the warm power of Athena's blood, slowly awoke from their slumber!
However, just as victory was within reach, an indescribably cold, eerie, and utterly terrifying pressure suddenly descended!
Om!
Time seemed to freeze!
Hyoga, Shiryu, Ikki, and Seiya's movements instantly stiffened, a huge fear originating from the depths of their souls gripped them.
They turned their heads in horror, looking at the source of the power, Shun, who was beside them.
They saw Shun's body, which had somehow floated three feet off the ground!
His emerald green hair faded and lightened at a visible speed, finally turning into a cold, luxuriouspitch black.
The gentle, worried expression on his face vanished, replaced by a ruthless demeanor like an ancient frozen lake.
His clear eyes opened, and in his pupils burned a chilling greenHellfire, capable of freezing souls!
Although his body was still Shun's, every inch of his skin exuded the divine majesty of a god who controlled life and death, looking down on all living beings!
"Shun, what on earth happened to you!"
Shiryu exclaimed in shock, his voice incredibly faint under this pressure.
"No!"
Ikki's heart felt as if it had been squeezed by a cold hand, instantly stopping its beat!
Buried memories were awakened; in his childhood, he held Shun, escaping the orphanage, only to be stopped by a little girl.
"Your brother's body has been chosen by the great Hades, accept it, this is his destiny!"
Ikki understood what had happened: Hades' soul had descended and occupied his brother's body!
"Hmph, trying to use Athena's blood to melt Cocytus? You have quite a scheme!"
"Let me guess, this is Li Yu's plan!"
Shun, or rather, Hades' human vessel, spoke in a cold voice, with a tone of judgment!
His gaze, burning withHellfire, precisely fell on the cube in the air, which was emitting infinite light.
Under his gaze, the cube actually stopped emitting light, and the melted Cocytus instantly froze, as if everything that had just happened was merely an illusion of the crowd.
Despair, like the deepest ice, instantly froze the hearts of the four Bronze Saints!
In front, the Hundred-Handed Giant held back the two Gold Saints; behind, Hades' true soul had descended and possessed Shun, and the five of them were already at their limit!
The spark of hope that had just ignited was like a candle that could be extinguished at any moment before the absolute divine power!
...The moment Hades' soul possessed Shun, the Twin Gods, who had just passed through the Wall of Sighs and were preparing to rush to the Eighth Prison to suppress the rebellion.
They passed through the Wall of Sighs with their physical bodies, their speed far inferior to Hades' soul, which could teleport.
Thanatos, God of Death, and Hypnos, God of Sleep, suddenly stopped in their tracks!
An extreme chill that stung their souls enveloped their surroundings without warning!
The space of the Underworld seemed to freeze, and even the divine power of the Underworld emanating from the Wall of Sighs became sluggish!
"This is Absolute Zero?"
A trace of astonishment flashed in Hypnos's golden eyes.
This was the Wall of Sighs, the deepest part of the Underworld, how could Absolute Zero appear here!
"If I'm not mistaken, Li Yu must have arrived!"
Thanatos, who had once been injured by this power, spoke with deep apprehension and cold killing intent in his voice.
Om!
The space trembled violently, and a gap was torn in the divine realm of the Underworld.
In front of the Twin Gods, a figure had quietly stood at some unknown time.
He wore the aquarius gold cloth, shining with a deep blue-gold light, and a white cape fluttered behind him.
Even in front of the Twin Gods, his prestige did not yield in the slightest; instead, it directly overshadowed the two Twin Gods!
"My Lord Hades! Save me!"
Thanatos, without thinking, immediately sent a plea for help to Hades' Temple in Elysium.
Li Yu's words made him feel as if he had fallen into an ice cellar!
"Don't waste your divine power, Hades probably doesn't have time for you now!"
Li Yu turned around, his dark eyes, like an ancient glacier, exuded an astonishing chill!
