Yu-Gi-Oh! 5Ds: Duelists Beyond Light

“Boom——————————————”

Pegasus Star unleashed a magic card, causing a gap to appear in the dark clouds above. With a deafening roar, a gigantic fist descended from the sky, shattering the only monster on the field with unstoppable force!
Debris from the explosion flew in all directions, and Tianma Xingdou revealed a cruel and sinister smile. He seemed to already see You Qing defeated by him and ultimately consumed by the Earth-Binding Fire...

What he didn't expect was that the monster summoned by You Qing—the Dragon Rider Legion's weapon, the Calamity Demon Sword—possessed abilities completely unexpected by him!

The Earth Shattering Spell shattered the Dragon Riders' weapon, the Calamity Sword, but immediately afterward, the dragon monster armed with it—the Giant Fang Dragon—roared and flapped its wings, flying down from the magic trap area, once again stirring up a terrifying storm and lightning!
“Bang bang————————————”

Pegasus Star's ace card—Supreme Sun—along with a face-down card in the back row, was suddenly shattered by a thunderstorm. He was startled, and when the storm subsided, he saw the Giant Tooth Dragon roaring and howling incessantly!
"The effect of the Dragon Riders' weapon, the Calamity Sword!!" You Qing exclaimed, "When this card is sent to the Graveyard by an opponent's card effect, target one monster in your or your opponent's Graveyard that is equipped with this card, and Special Summon that monster!!"

"With this ability, I will Special Summon the Giant Fang Dragon equipped on the Dragon Rider's weapon, the Calamity Sword, to the field!!"

"When the Giant Tooth Dragon is successfully Special Summoned, it can destroy up to two cards on the field, and each of them gains 600 ATK!!!"

Tianma Xingdou's eyes turned cold.

It seems that You Qing has won this contest slightly.

He initially thought that You Qing deliberately gave up high attack power in order to lure him into launching an attack, thereby activating some combat-related traps.

In reality, he did this to trick himself into destroying the Dragon Riders' weapon, the Calamity Sword, through a destructive effect, thereby triggering the Giant Fang Dragon's ability to counterattack.

but……

Hehehe...

Such tricks are meaningless to the Supreme Sun!

"Then, activate the Continuous Spell Card—Fragment of Survival!!" Pegasus Star swung the card and sneered, "End of turn!!"

A precious talisman for survival?!

You Qing didn't pay much attention at first, but when he looked up in a daze, he was shocked to find that the image on the card was extremely ancient!
I am afraid……

This card is just like that precious card that fell from the sky...

These are all extremely rare cards that have been passed down from the era of Yugi Muto!!

"Still surprised, Yu Qing?" Pegasus Star sneered. "As someone who came from the International Illusion Society, and once controlled the most powerful force in the entire Neo-Domino City~"

"You shouldn't be surprised that such a card exists, right?"

"That's right, this card is the original version of the Survival Card!!"

"Whenever a monster is resurrected from the Graveyard on either side of the field, I can draw three cards!!"

"As a duelist, you must know the classic combo that allowed the Duelist King to defeat Sky Dragon Osiris, but if you're thinking of imitating it, you should probably give up on that idea."

"In this day and age, there's practically no way to achieve an infinite loop anymore."

What Tianma Xingdou said was not without reason.

The era in which 5Ds was very awkward. The card effects were better than those during Yugi Muto's time, but it lacked many of the powerful cards that were popular at the time, such as Pot of Greed. However, since dueling had not yet developed to the point of being close to the OCG, the card effects were far inferior to those of later generations.

Whether it was the earliest era of Yugi Muto or countless eras later, achieving an infinite loop is always easier than it is at this stage.

The chances of achieving a decisive victory by imitating the Pharaoh are slim, especially since Pegasus Star's deck seems to have far more than forty cards...

Pegasus Star continued to sneer, "I can tell you in advance that the Supreme Sun is an immortal monster. Once it's destroyed, it can be resurrected from the graveyard during my next preparation phase by discarding a card from my hand." "And the cost of a card is nothing to me, with my Survival Treasure Card."

"A ten-star monster with an attack power of 3000 and infinite regeneration..."

"This is the slave I use to obey the Earthbound God!!"

"It won't be long before I can gather all the conditions to summon the Earthbound God Chaku Charya again!!"

"At that time, despair and fear will spread throughout the land, and the souls of everyone around will be consumed by this colossal painting!!!"

After the duel had gone on for so long, You Qing finally responded to this crazy guy. He shook his head disdainfully and sneered back, "Stop pretending."

“What…” Pegasus Star was taken aback.

You Qing chuckled coldly, "What 'coming from the International Illusion Society,' what 'controlling the Pegasus Society'... those are just your self-deceiving claims."

Do you think nobody knows?

"To Pegasus, you're like a stray dog ​​he adopted from the street!!"

"To the Pegasus Society, you're just a scapegoat used by the masterminds behind the scenes!"

To put it bluntly, your value... no, you have absolutely no value!

"Because in this world, nobody cares about a bastard like you!!"

"You crave bonds, but no one ever responds, so you can only feign this cruelty, committing those heinous acts!!!"

Tianma Xingdou couldn't help but shout angrily, "Shut up!!!"

His face was pale, his long, light purple hair was disheveled in the wind, his lips were moving, and his body was trembling uncontrollably.

You Qing glanced at him with the look one would give a vicious dog, then drew a card from his deck and said:
"Now, it's my turn. Draw a card!!"

"You have no monsters on your field!!"

"Then, Megalodon!! Attack directly!!!"

With his old wounds reopened in a bloody mess, Pegasus Star revealed his only card and roared, "You're overthinking it! You Qing!!"

"The instant you attack, I activate the Quick-Play Spell Card—Time Leap!!"

"This card will halt all current chains and resolutions, advancing both players' turn counts by three consecutive turns!!"

"During this process, neither duelist can draw cards during the draw phase, but the effects of the corresponding turn phase will still be calculated!!"

"I use this card to block your attack, and because my next Standby Phase is approaching, I can discard a card from my hand to revive Supreme Sun from my Graveyard!!"

"At the same time, the Survival Talisman effect has been triggered!!"

"Draw three cards from your deck!!!"

"Swish swish swish————————————————" (End of Chapter)
