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

Fine cracks began to appear on their indestructible armor, and finally, with a resentful roar, they vanished into nothingness.

All that remained was the enormous, blood-red body of the [Kusha Nuwei Clan's Shangri-La Cocoon] high in the sky.

But even it, the last starlight surrounding it, representing the excess material, completely dissipated under the impact of this force!

The dark barrier, constructed with divine power, that had enveloped the two figures, dissolved with a roar, like a burst bubble. The two opposing figures finally appeared clearly in the sight of those outside the barrier.

Looking at the two figures on the field, one enveloped in dark purple ghostly light and the other surrounded by raging purple lightning.

An absurd illusion arose in everyone's mind.

Are these two people in front of me really still mortals?

Or perhaps, they are both gods who stepped out of mythology, legends...!

Among this group of people, only Ling Shiyao's pupils suddenly dilated!

She stared intently at the figure of the girl bathed in divine light opposite Youyang.

Although the girl's face was twisted and contorted with anger, that familiar face instantly awakened Ling Shiyao's long-forgotten memories.

"Shiqing...?"

The two people on the field had no time to pay attention to any changes outside the barrier.

You Yang continued without hesitation, his voice like a death knell:

"However, this effect has a follow-up!"

"—This will inflict damage on the opponent equal to the sum of the original ATK of the monsters destroyed by this effect!"

"You have a total of three monsters destroyed on your field!"

"They are, respectively, the [Kusha Wrathful Unicorn] with an attack power of 2500 points!"

"[Fenrir Wolf of the Kusha Wrath Clan] with an attack power of 2400!"

"And, [Kusha's Wrathful Clan - Aleshardt], with an attack power of 3000 points!"

"Total... 7900 points of damage!!"

"False gods, prepare for your death!"

You Yang's furious roar was like thunder, exploding with a deafening roar!

"what?!"

The perfect body of the Earthbound God Veracocha Raska suddenly trembled, and the arrogant expression on his face shattered completely, replaced by a pure, almost mortal terror.

He uncontrollably staggered back several steps, his steps faltering, almost losing his balance.

Method?

Method?

How could He possibly have a way out?!

No...no...there's another way!

As if it were the last straw, a thought suddenly flashed through His mind, which was in chaos due to fear!

The next second, the possessed girl's body rolled its eyes, instantly losing all its power, collapsing to the ground like a puppet with its strings cut, completely unconscious.

High in the sky, the enormous vulture that blotted out the sun suddenly revealed a cunning yet panicked light of wisdom in its eyes, which had been burning with dark purple karmic fire!

It let out a shriek filled with fear and rage, and its huge wings, which could cover half the city, suddenly flapped. It no longer had any desire to fight, and with a gust of wind that tore through the air, it fled in panic toward the distant horizon!

He is God!

It is the strongest Earthbound God!

How could I... how could I be defeated here by a mere mortal!

To escape!

We must...escape!!!

Everyone outside the barrier was dumbfounded by this incredibly dramatic scene.

What...what did they just see?

A genuine god who had almost driven them to the brink of despair actually... actually ran away because he was frightened by a mortal?

Can they escape?

You Yang's icy gaze, like a hawk locking onto its prey, watched the enormous figure fleeing in a disheveled state.

He slowly raised his hands together, thumbs raised, like a sniper wielding divine punishment, and slowly aimed at the giant vulture that was rapidly flying into the distance in the sky.

"唳——!!!"

A sharp screech, piercing through the clouds and seemingly capable of splitting rocks, tore through the entire night!

【Rapid Raptor - Winged Rebellious Falcon】as if sensing its master's will, it spreads its wings once more!

The violent purple lightning on its body gathered once again at this moment!

Its radiance was so great that it illuminated this decaying, dark night shrouded by the gods as bright as day!

Endless purple lightning, like a surging river, poured wildly into its enormous core. The immense lightning gathered and compressed here, transforming into an energy singularity exuding an aura of destruction!

This time, the target was no longer the unconscious body of the girl on the ground.

Instead, it was the vulture high in the sky, representing the true form of the deity, fleeing in panic!

As the energy was compressed to its limit, the killing intent in You Yang's eyes also reached its peak.

He swung his hands down with a sudden, powerful motion, uttering the final words of judgment!

"—Ultimate Glory Flash!"

boom--!!!

[Rapid Strike Raptor - Winged Rebellious Falcon] Thunder roared from its chest!

What a magnificent bolt of lightning it was! Its power and force were comparable to the true might of the heavens!

The massive true form of the Earthbound God, Veracocha Rascana, turned around in mid-air in terror, desperately trying to flap its wings to dodge, but it was already too late.

This bolt of lightning was too fast, too fast, even...

It far exceeds the speed of sound!

Before everyone's shocked eyes, the incredibly massive body of the Earthbound God, Veracocha Raska, was instantly pierced through from head to toe by that purple pillar of lightning!

"grumble--!!!"

A heart-wrenching scream, unlike anything any living being could pierce the air, trembled noticeably and was filled with ultimate despair, as if it were the most unwilling cry of life at its last moment!

His remaining life points on the Duel Disk were reduced to zero at that moment!

【Earthbound God Viracocha Raska: LP 0】

[Youyang: Victory!]

The enormous divine body suddenly froze in mid-air, then fell helplessly from the sky like a kite with a broken string.

Chapter 181 The Defeat of the Gods!

However, it failed to cause any damage to the ground.

Instead, it began to rapidly disintegrate mid-air as it fell, its massive body transforming into countless points of starlight. Rays of light, representing the origin of life, scattered from its body and flew in all directions of the city.

When all the radiance completely dissipated, the enormous divine body ultimately transformed into a thin card, swirling in the air before slowly drifting down.

You Yang frowned slightly and threw out his last card, [Rapid Raptor - Strangling Shrike].

The card materialized instantly in mid-air, transforming into a silver-white mechanical shrike. It let out a joyful cry and shot out like a silver lightning bolt, flying towards the falling card.

High in the sky, the enormous figure of the [Rapid Raptor - Winged Rebellious Falcon] slowly descended, eventually hovering beside You Yang, using its massive body to shield him from the falling debris.

The scorched earth that had been corrupted by the Earthbound God Veracocha Raska and turned into a Netherworld was instantly purified as the all-purifying power of lightning descended from the [Rapid Raptor - Winged Rebellious Falcon].

The putrid miasma was blown away by the gale, the dim halo vanished, and the earth returned to its former state.

Although it is still a dilapidated ruin, it is not bad.

With a joyful cry, [Rapid Raptor - Strangling Shrike] carried the card and flew steadily back to You Yang's side.

It gently placed the card in its paw, then affectionately rubbed its cool, metallic beak against Youyang's cheek before transforming back into a card and disappearing.

Looking at the [Earthbound God Veracocha Raska] and the [Rapid Raptor - Strangling Shrike] in his hand, You Yang slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air.

"call--!"

It's finally over!

"Come back too."

You Yang patted the towering, terrifying [Rapid Assault Raptor - Winged Rebellious Falcon] beside him, which resembled a small mountain, and finally revealed a tired smile on his face, speaking softly.

【Rapid Raptor - Winged Rebellious Falcon】as if it understood his words, its scarlet electronic eyes flashed, its massive body nodded, and then transformed into a dazzling bolt of lightning, reforging a brand new card that fell into You Yang's hands.

Meanwhile, the card on the Yu Yang Duel Disk that had been rewritten by lightning was restored to its original design as [Dark Soul Xyz Dragon].

As You Yang removed the cards one by one, the magnificent duel disk composed of golden starlight transformed into wisps of gentle mist, slowly dissipating into the air.

As the sacred lightning completely dissipated, specks of golden starlight, like warm summer rain, slowly drifted down from the high sky.

The points of light fell upon the charred ruins, and the figures of those who had been devoured by the power of the Earthbound God and turned into purple streams of light began to re-condense and reappear within the points of light.

Chen Yuan, Liu Zi, and all the people who had disappeared from various corners of the city all reappeared in the same place.

Apart from his face appearing somewhat pale due to the momentary detachment of his soul, there were no obvious injuries on his body.

"elder brother?!"

Chen Yuexi's bloodshot eyes widened suddenly as she stared in disbelief at the familiar figure that appeared not far away, looking around blankly.

That cry, suppressing endless sorrow and ecstasy, was heart-wrenching.

Overjoyed, she burst into tears and practically tumbled forward, pulling Chen Yuan into a tight embrace with all her might, as if trying to meld him into her very being, afraid that it was just another illusion.

"Brother! Brother..."

Although Chen Yuan was still somewhat confused about what had happened, he instinctively reached out and hugged his most cherished sister tightly, whose body was trembling violently from the shock. He gently patted her back with his palm.
