Although upset, the remaining bronze saints realize they don't have the time to grieve for their brave friend Shiryu, and they hurry off to the next house, the house of Aquarius. Inside, they encounter the gold saint of Aquarius, Camus. To prove his great mentor wrong (for freezing him in the large block of ice, because he felt Cygnus could never achieve his seventh sense) Cygnus Hyoga wants to fight Camus alone. So, he tells Shun and Seiya to go on ahead to defeat Arles without him. Camus's powers are great; he is far superior to Cygnus and easily defeats him. But respecting his prodigy, Camus again chooses to freeze Cygnus inside a large block of ice rather than killing him ruthlessly. This time, however, to Camus's surprise Cygnus is able to summon his seventh sense power and break out of the ice coffin. A greater battle ensues and both saints destroyed one another, altering the number of fallen bronze saints to three.

The Bronze Saints arrive at the Virgo Temple. There, they meet Shaka, the man whose power is the closest to God's power. Yet, he doesn't seem to notice the saints in front of him. Seiya tries to attack him, but Shaka hits him hard and Seiya goes to the ground. The same happens with Shiryu and Shun, and finally Shaka defeats all of them with his technique: TenMaKou Fuku (Devil Lord's Blessing). When Shaka is about to kill Shun, a Phoenix Feather cuts his hand. Phoenix Ikki has arrived. Since Ikki hurt Shaka's hand, the Gold Saint creates a river of blood, where Ikki will drown unless he gives up and becomes a follower of Shaka, but Ikki uses his flaming cosmo to vaporize the blood river. However, Ikki still can't attack Shaka, who paralyses him the same way as before. Then, Shaka uses his Rikudo Rinne (Cycle of the Six Worlds) attack, sending Ikki's spirit to the nothingness.

In sadistic fashion, Shaka tortures Phoenix with his incredible gold saint powers, but even after ridding Phoenix of his senses and leaving him physically destroyed, Shaka cannot seem to finish off the strong-willed bronze saint. Shun comes-to and tries to help his ailing brother, but through communicative thoughts, Phoenix tells him to back off; 'this is his fight.' Shaka continues his attack on a defenseless Phoenix, but now he seems unable to do any damage to him, like he's protected by an unknown force field. Shaka has never seen anything like this before. Who is protecting Phoenix? And why? It turns out that Phoenix's is protecting himself with his awesome brainpower. Angered and frustrated, Shaka tries to destroy Phoenix's brain as well, but he is too late. Phoenix has been down so low that he cannot go any deeper. He has searched his soul and found his inner seventh-sense power. Due to his inner goodness and pure heart, Phoenix becomes more powerful than Shaka could ever dream of becoming and he begins to overpower Shaka. But Phoenix knows that the only way he can truly destroy Shaka is by sacrificing his own life to take Shaka's. So he does just that. Phoenix grabs hold of a stunned Shaka and burns up all of his powerful energy in an intense heat. By building up a massive burst of energy Phoenix explodes and takes Shaka with him, into a million bits. Shun and the others shed a tear for their fallen friend, but they know he died for them and they must now rush off to save Saari, as they only have six hours left.
