Yu-Gi-Oh!: This isn't a duel!

"Hmph, just based on that one monster?" Migu sneered, as if he had heard the biggest joke in the world.

Chapter 158 Six Spirits! They All Descend!

“One?” You Yang’s tone turned icy.

"Who told you I only have one?"

The moment he finished speaking, You Yang reached into his robes, and five cards emanating different auras fell into his hand like a shower of flowers from a celestial maiden.

Without even glancing at them, he slammed all five cards onto the Duel Disk!

"Come out, my friends!"

The first card responded immediately, and in an instant, lightning flashed and silver snakes danced wildly!

Amidst a blinding crimson glow, a colossal silver dragon, constructed from intricate machinery, roared as it descended, its body radiating destructive energy!

The Cyber ​​Dragon Infinity has arrived!

The second card unleashed a burst of magical power, and three ferocious dragon heads emerged from the magic circle, letting out deafening roars!

On the central dragon head, a mage with a staff in hand and a cold expression stood quietly, his icy gaze sweeping over all things in the world!

The Ultimate Dragon Magician has arrived!

The third card triggered a celestial phenomenon. High in the sky, the dark clouds that had been covering the sky were forcibly torn apart by an invisible force, and a cascade of golden light poured down from them!

A huge, metallic-looking figure slowly emerged from it, letting out a clear, high-pitched cry that could pierce the heavens!

The [Rapid Raptor - Ultimate Falcon] has arrived!

The fourth card transformed into a dazzling galaxy. Amidst the endless starlight, a colossal dragon, its entire body covered in black armor and seemingly composed of the hardest substance in the universe, let out a roar that shook the very fabric of time and space!

[No. 107 Galaxy Eye Time-Space Dragon] has arrived!

The last card transformed into a pure white aurora. A streamlined figure sped past in the aurora, moving so fast that it seemed to transcend space and time, instantly arriving in front of You Yang!

The Meteor Dragon has arrived!

Five legendary and powerful monsters, along with the [Elemental Hero: Shining New Universe Winged Knight] who was still standing on the field, formed six towering figures that firmly protected You Yang in the center!

"Tear this awful place down!"

Without hesitation, You Yang gave them the order!

Migu's smile froze instantly, and his face turned deathly pale.

He stared in disbelief at the miraculous scene before him, feeling the six terrifying auras that seemed to crush the very space around him. His voice trembled with extreme shock.

"You...your mental power...is so immense, capable of simultaneously maintaining six...six such powerful monsters?!"

You Yang merely glanced at him coldly, his eyes devoid of any pity, but he did not reply. To him, the struggle of a dying man was not worth wasting any words on.

The six majestic monsters had already obeyed their master's will, transforming into six streams of destructive light of different colors, rushing out in all directions!

They surged with terrifying energy powerful enough to tear space apart, and began to recklessly destroy everything created by the [Guardian Labyrinth]!

"Boom! Boom! Rumble—!"

The incredibly thick labyrinth walls were as fragile as paper before them, being repeatedly pierced and shattered.

With each beam of energy shot out, and each strike of claws and dragon breath, the cracks on the [Guardian Labyrinth] in Migu's hand grew larger and deeper.

The faint light that had rekindled quickly dimmed at a visible speed, eventually extinguishing completely and turning back into an ordinary, yellowish-brown cube.

At this moment, at the other end of the maze, Xie Wan'an was staring solemnly at the gradually collapsing wall in front of her. When the first ray of light that did not belong to the maze shone in, a relieved look finally appeared on her tense face.

In front of her, Jing's figure stood somewhat frail.

The maid outfit that was originally so neat and tidy now had many tears and scorch marks, and her originally rosy cheeks had turned pale, clearly a sign of excessive mental energy consumption.

Ahead of them, another girl, dressed in a maid outfit and as delicate as a doll, stood guard behind them. She stood in the shadows of the maze.

Every time a ferocious monster roared and pounced from the darkness, she would instantly kill it with overwhelming force. But with each move, Jing's face would grow paler.

Chen Yuan was with Tian Dao Lian, and the two of them were in a much more relaxed situation than Xie Wan'an and the others.

Instead of engaging in direct combat, they used the terrain to their advantage, maneuvering around the monsters and escaping under Tiandao Lian's command. Even so, the prolonged mental strain and constant running took their toll.

"Huff...ha...you tell me," Chen Yuan, panting heavily, leaned against the wall after narrowly dodging a sneak attack from the shadows, and asked Tian Dao Lian beside him.

"How long is this awful place going to last?"

Tiandao Lian quickly recalled the monster she had just summoned to defend against the attack, in order to conserve her mental energy. While observing her surroundings, she calmly replied:

"It should be soon."

"If I'm not mistaken, we must have fallen into some kind of elven realm."

"Moreover, this is an elf realm that is controlled by humans. That person deliberately separated us, wanting to defeat us one by one."

“However,” a confident smile curved Tiandao Ren’s lips, “I believe in him!”

After saying that, Tiandao Lian slowly closed her eyes, leaned against the wall, and planned to take advantage of this short and hard-won rest time to recover her mental energy as quickly as possible.

Even the slightest improvement brings a greater chance of survival.

The monsters in this elven realm are practically endless.

Moreover, they are practically immortal in this world.

Given enough time, these monsters will always recover, no matter how much damage they suffer.

Therefore, from the very beginning, Tiandao Lian wisely chose the tactic of taking Chen Yuan on a runaway journey.

There are only two ways to leave this owned elven realm.

Firstly, it is the will of this world that allows you to leave.

However, this elven realm clearly has an owner, and the owner deliberately trapped them here, so the possibility is basically zero.

Secondly, it is to directly defeat the core entity guarding this elven realm.

They also tried this option, summoning flying monsters to fly high into the sky for observation.

However, aside from attracting more frequent and intense attacks, they gained virtually nothing.

Because they discovered, to their despair, that the labyrinth was alive!

Even if they memorized the entire layout of the maze in that instant, when they reached the next fork in the road, they found that the original passage had already been sealed off by cold walls, and there might even be more deadly traps waiting for them in the new passage.

Despite the difficult circumstances, Tiandao Lian never gave up hope.

The reason is simple: Tiandao Lian believes that the man named You Yang can definitely do it!

Rumble~

Just then, the wall surrounding the two began to shake violently, and slowly collapsed and dissipated.

The two exchanged a surprised glance, their faces beaming with barely suppressed joy.

As the walls gradually dissipated into specks of light, Migu's aura grew weaker and weaker.

His once black hair had turned completely white in just a few minutes, and his face was covered with deep wrinkles, like a fruit that had been drained of its moisture.

He raised his cloudy eyes and looked at You Yang, who was still calm and composed, as if he hadn't done anything. A deep sense of envy welled up in his heart.

That's truly... a power so strong it's enviable.

If only I had possessed such power back then...

So, does that mean we can protect her?

Migu's thoughts were instantly pulled back to ten years ago.

At that time, he was far younger than You Yangda in front of him, probably only thirteen or fourteen years old, a fearless and daring young man.

His family was not famous and was extremely isolated, so Migu never saw any outsiders during his childhood.

But the ancient and oppressive rules within his family suffocated him—forcing him to spend his entire life guarding a broken labyrinth.

Unable to bear this fate any longer, Migu secretly escaped one night.

He thought that even if he would eventually have to guard that broken maze, at least for now, he should relax and have some fun.

However, Migu, who had lived in seclusion in his family for many years, soon made a huge fool of himself due to his ignorance of the ways of the world.

Within the family, he could simply reach out and grab whatever he wanted to eat.

Because he is the son of the patriarch, everything in this family will belong to him in the future.

But when he came to the outside world, he found that everything was so different.

He still reached for the food from the vendor as if it were his right, but he was soon given a stern lesson.

Although he didn't understand why he couldn't eat the delicious-looking food in front of him, looking at the aggressive and spittle-flecked stall owner across from him, young Migu knew that he was probably in the wrong.

Just as he stood there, bewildered and embarrassed, a clear voice came to his rescue.

"Boss, is this enough money?"

He turned his head and saw a girl handing a few coins to the stall owner.

She wasn't conventionally beautiful, and had a few faint freckles on her face, but the clean and gentle smile on her face as she handed over the money in the warm afternoon sunlight instantly dispelled all the gloom in his heart, becoming the most beautiful scene Migu had ever seen in his life.

The two, who were of similar age, quickly became inseparable friends.

The girl patiently taught Migu various life skills, while Migu proudly showed the girl his unique monster.

When that majestic, towering demon god first appeared before the girl, the look of awe and worship in her eyes filled Migu with unprecedented pride and joy.

That period was the most beautiful prelude to his life.

But the good times didn't last long, as Migu's cards soon attracted the attention of some ill-intentioned people.

At that time, Migu was still a novice and could not unleash the true power of the "Guardian of the Gate" deck. He was easily defeated in a conflict.

Thanks to the protection of the elves, Migu narrowly escaped death, but the girl who always smiled gently at him disappeared forever in a fire set by those people to vent their anger.

Afterwards, Migu returned to his family, seemingly a different person.

He worked diligently, studying day and night, and finally mastered the power of the Guardian of the Gate deck.

He also found the bandits who had taken everything from him and wiped them all out with overwhelming force.

But what's the use of that?
