Chapter 279: Chapter 141: The Descent of the Twin Gods, Treasure of Heaven! (Part 1)

Saga’s Galaxian Explosion and Shaka’s Tenma Kofuku were like two brilliant meteors, streaking straight toward the core of Hades Castle.

This black castle, standing in the rift between the human realm and the Underworld, was ultimately a mortal structure despite being built from Underworld rock. If struck by the full-powered ultimate techniques of Gold Saints, it would inevitably collapse in an instant.

At this critical moment, two furious shouts imbued with supreme divine might exploded like thunder above Hades Castle, shattering the surrounding space like a fragile mirror!

"Audacious ants!"

"Don’t even think about it!"

Two terrifying figures, radiating Cosmos that far surpassed those of the Three Judges, stepped out from the void rifts.

The divine power surrounding them threw the entire space off balance.

The figure on the left wore a silver and white robe. An aura of death wrapped around him like a physical black mist; every breath he took seemed to harvest life. It was none other than Thanatos, the God of Death.

The figure on the right wore a robe interwoven with gold and white. As his eyes opened and closed, waves of eternal slumber that could sink one into oblivion permeated the air, slowing even the light around him. It was Hypnos, the God of Sleep.

The moment the Twin Gods appeared, the power of Hades’ Barrier abruptly surged threefold!

The Gold Saints, already locked in a bitter struggle, instantly felt as though towering mountains had been pressed onto their backs. The flow of their Cosmos became sluggish, and even breathing became difficult.

Facing the ultimate techniques of Saga and Shaka, the faces of the Twin Gods showed no ripples of emotion.

Thanatos waved a single hand, and an arc of deathly light, black as ink, materialized out of thin air, slashing precisely toward the Galaxian Explosion.

The moment the golden energy sphere collided with the black arc of light, the former shattered like a bubble, not even stirring a single ripple.

Hypnos twitched his fingertips, and misty, expanding halos of purple light rippled outward. Like the thickest of nightmares, they instantly entangled the Buddhist light of Tenma Kofuku. The golden light rapidly dimmed within the halos before finally vanishing without a trace.

Boom!

Two attacks capable of destroying planets were effortlessly dismantled by the casual gestures of the Twin Gods.

A massive energy shockwave rebounded. Saga and Shaka let out muffled groans as they were sent flying backward like kites with broken strings. They crashed heavily against the walls of Hades Castle. Prominent cracks appeared on their Gold Cloths as blood dripped down the armor plates.

"Hmph! Overestimating your own capabilities!"

Thanatos’s gaze was as cold as a blade, locking firmly onto Saga.

"Mere humans dare to covet the domain of the gods? Who gave you the courage to come to Hades Castle to throw your lives away!"

He raised his right hand, and purple-black energy condensed in his palm.

"Saga, according to my prophecy, you should have died long ago. Now, return to your destiny!"

"Terrible Providence!"

A tyrannical shockwave of energy blasted straight toward Saga. Its speed was pushed to the absolute limit, descending like a scythe reaping souls.

Not daring to be careless, Saga burned his Cosmo with all his might and unleashed the Galaxian Explosion once more.

However, this power capable of destroying galaxies was like a soap bubble before the God of Death’s ultimate technique, shredded in an instant.

Saga was viciously struck by the shockwave and crashed heavily to the ground. The helmet of the Gemini Cloth completely shattered, and blood continuously poured from his forehead.

Hypnos, on the other hand, turned his gaze toward Shaka. A ray of gray light illuminated at his fingertip.

"Sleep, Shaka. This is a grudge between us and Athena; you should never have interfered."

"Fall into an eternal slumber!"

The gray light darted straight for the center of Shaka’s brow like a venomous snake.

Sitting cross-legged, Shaka hovered in the air. A lotus-shaped Cosmo suddenly lit up beneath his feet, and miraculous illusions of Buddha preaching and the twenty-four Devas of India materialized behind him.

Countless rays of golden light expanded outward with him at the center, illuminating the entirety of Hades’ Barrier. The gray light dissipated inch by inch within the golden radiance.

"Tenma Kofuku!"

The sound of Buddhist chanting echoed through the air, and the God of Sleep’s eternal slumber was completely neutralized.

"The Saint closest to godhood truly has some skill."

A hint of surprise flashed in Hypnos’s eyes, quickly replaced by displeasure.

"But you are ultimately just human!"

Thanatos also abandoned the heavily injured Saga, joining Hypnos to attack Shaka.

The God of Death’s arc of deathly light intertwined with the God of Sleep’s nightmare halos, forming a massive net of death that firmly enveloped Shaka.
