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

Chapter 334 A Consensus That Was Destined to Be Unreachable! The Third Battle! The Unsealed Royal Palace and the King's Guards!

The dazzling virtual data radiance, like a living, flowing stream of water, swirled and intertwined wildly around You Yang.

These dazzling lights eventually coalesced in mid-air, transforming into brand-new card phantoms that combined with the cards in his hand, creating a completely new deck in the Duel Disk!

"Now that I have gained their trust, I will never let them down."

You Yang's cold voice echoed in the wind.

He turned his head slightly, his gaze passing over the raging wind, and looked back at the familiar faces behind him, a soft look flashing in his eyes.

Then, turning back to look at Gu Qingyuan in front of her, the tenderness in her eyes vanished in an instant, replaced by utter resolute determination.

Looking directly at Gu Qingyuan, he declared in a cold voice, enunciating each word clearly: "Moreover, I said it."

"In this world, there are people I need to protect!"

"Therefore, we are destined to be unable to reach a consensus!"

"So—round three, let's go!"

With a furious shout, You Yang suddenly raised his arm and slammed the brand-new deck into the duel disk.

boom!

The dazzling seven-colored light erupted from his body like a volcanic eruption, and the elven power that had been dormant within him was completely awakened at this moment!

"Stubborn to the end!"

Seeing You Yang's determined resistance, a violent and ferocious look appeared on Gu Qingyuan's ordinary face.

A violent black power, like thick ink, surged violently on Gu Qingyuan's body, and a drop of black liquid, exuding endless death energy, flew rapidly from high above.

The drop of liquid instantly combined with the card in his hand, and with a strange writhing motion, it also transformed into a deck exuding an aura of calamity.

"Since you want to protect all of this, then I will destroy it!"

Gu Qingyuan's eyes flashed with a fierce light. "This time, I won't hold back!"

The terrifying aura of the Great Evil God surged wildly from Gu Qingyuan's body. With the resolve to destroy everything, he also slammed his deck into the Duel Disk.

Two roars, each brimming with extreme killing intent, resounded across the sky simultaneously: "The duel begins!"

As the duel was declared, a coin, one side radiating divine light and the other exuding deep darkness, soared high from the scorched earth.

Without the slightest hesitation, the two simultaneously stretched out their palms, and the elven power within them began to surge wildly like two colliding beasts.

Feeling the terrifying pressure that could tear space apart, everyone watching held their breath. Everyone could see that the two of them were now truly getting serious.

With the combined terrifying power of the two individuals, the coin in mid-air began to spin wildly at a speed that was impossible for the naked eye to perceive.

However, this contest of power did not last long. In the end, Gu Qingyuan's expression darkened, and he was forced to withdraw his hand first.

He looked down at the bloody mess above his palm, his eyes dark and brooding, and couldn't help but let out a low, angry spit: "Tsk!"

In his mind, he should have won this match based on the rules.

After all, the power of the mere Red Dragon is no match for the Great Evil God Zorc.

However, during that brief but dangerous confrontation, Gu Qingyuan was shocked to discover that, apart from the pure white light and the violent lightning power, which were originally part of the Youyang energy, there was also something else.

There is also an enormous power, a dark power capable of creating and changing everything!

That power was even somewhat similar to a certain power hidden within his own body!

Having won the first move through a battle of hidden forces, You Yang showed no mercy and drew his first five cards from the top of his deck like a whirlwind sweeping away fallen leaves.

Unfolding his five cards, You Yang quickly glanced at them, then without hesitation drew a card and placed it into the empty slot that popped up on the duel disk, loudly announcing:

"Then it's my turn. I activate the Field Spell Card 'Royal Tomb Wall' from my hand!"

Rumble—!

The tall, heavy stone wall rose up from behind Youyang as if by divine intervention, swiftly blocking the dim light shining into the golden palace with an overbearing manner.

In an instant, the sky above where the two were located was completely surrounded by four pale yellow stone walls that exuded ancient majesty.

"The special effect of 【The Stone Wall of the King's Tomb】 is that while this card is in the Field Zone, its name is treated as "The King's Coffin".

You Yang's eyes blazed, and he suddenly pointed a finger: "However, now I'm going to activate its first effect!"

"It can only be activated during its main phase."

Add 1 "Horus" monster from your Deck to your hand.

"As a price, I will choose one card from my hand and return it to the bottom of my deck."

"I choose to add [Horus's Glory - Imset] to my hand from my deck!"

After adding a card from his deck to his hand, You Yang didn't hesitate for a moment before placing an unwanted card at the bottom of his deck.

Then, You Yang brought his long, slender fingers together, instantly picking up two cards and loudly declaring war:

"I activate the effect of [Horus's Glory - Imset] in my hand!"

You can activate this effect by sending two cards from your hand, including this card, to the Graveyard at the same time.

Add 1 "Coffin of the King" from your deck to your hand.

"After that, you can draw one card yourself."

With a flick of his wrist, You Yang mercilessly shoved two cards into the graveyard:

"I send the [Glory of Horus - Imset] and the [Bridge of Salvation] into the grave from my hands."

"Add the Continuous Spell Card [Coffin of the King] from your deck to your hand, then draw a card."

Standing on the opposite side, Gu Qingyuan frowned as he watched You Yang send two cards from his hand to the graveyard and then draw two more cards from his deck.

Gu Qingyuan's brain began to work frantically, analyzing You Yang's dueling strategy.

But soon, his face darkened, because he was shocked to find that he couldn't do it at all—he had no idea what kind of effect the card You Yang was using was hiding!

The cards that You Yang had used earlier were all within his expectations.

Having lived in this world for so long, he naturally memorized many card effects.

But the King's Coffin series?

A hint of surprise and uncertainty finally appeared on Gu Qingyuan's usually indifferent face.

In all his long years, he had never heard of a deck with such a name before!

He was completely unaware of the strange hidden effects contained within the so-called "King's Coffin" and those "Horus" monsters.

The only thing he knows for sure right now is the effect of the trap card that You Yang just sent to the graveyard as a price—[Bridge of Salvation].

Just as Gu Qingyuan was trying to analyze the situation, You Yang's cold and sharp voice rang out in the strong wind!

"Then, I immediately activated the effect of the trap card 'Bridge of Salvation' in my graveyard!"

You Yang's gaze was sharp as lightning. "You can activate this by banishing this card from the graveyard as a cost."

"Add 1 'Crystal Beast' monster and 1 Field Spell Card from your Deck to your hand."

A card phantom suddenly popped out of the graveyard of the Duel Disk, and Youyang sent it to the banished zone without hesitation:

"I banish it and add the monster [Crystal Beast Jade Turtle] and the Field Spell Card [Kingta Beach Area] to my hand from my deck!"

As two streaks of light precisely converged, You Yang's hand of cards instantly reached a terrifying six.

Without any hesitation, You Yang drew a card and slammed it into the Spell/Trap Zone with lightning speed:

"Then, I activated the Continuous Spell Card from my hand—[Coffin of the King]!"

Boom!

As You Yang slammed the card down, the earth trembled violently.

A massive golden coffin, made entirely of pure gold, engraved with countless ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs, and shimmering with a pale green, dim fluorescence, appeared before You Yang with an ancient majesty.

"Sleeping Pharaoh's Guardians, heed the call that has echoed across millennia!"

"I activate the powerful effect of the Continuous Spell Card [Coffin of the King]!"

Yu Yang loudly proclaimed, "You can only activate this card by sending one card from your hand to the graveyard as a price."

Send 1 "Horus" monster directly from your Deck to the Graveyard.

You Yang exerted force with his fingertips, ruthlessly discarding the cards he had just retrieved:

"As a price, I send [Jade Turtle] from my hand to the graveyard, and then send [Horus's Blessing - Domtef] from my deck to the abyss of the graveyard as well!"

Having accepted the offering, the enormous golden coffin began to shine intensely, and the pale green fluorescence surrounding it instantly became even more dazzling.

Only after those two cards were completely sent to the graveyard to complete their effect resolution did its violent light dim slightly, restoring its original depth and mystery.

"Then, now is the time for the ancient guardians to awaken!"

You Yang's eyes were as sharp as a hawk's, pointing straight ahead. "I activate the special effect of [Horus's Blessing - Domteif] in the graveyard!"

"This card can be Special Summoned directly from the Graveyard without conditions, as long as you control 'King's Coffin'."

"Break free from the shackles of the River Styx, appear! [Horus's Blessing - Domteif]!"

Accompanied by a roar that echoed across the battlefield, a towering ancient guardian with broad golden wings and a majestic cat-faced human body descended fiercely from the shadows of the graveyard!

It gripped a giant bow engraved with mysterious runes tightly in its hand, the deadly weapon it used to pierce through all enemies!

Horus's Blessing - Domteef [8 stars]

[Water/Beast] [Attack: 0 / Defense: 0]

"Attack power is 0?!"

Seeing the pitiful stats on the monster's panel, Gu Qingyuan's expression instantly turned extremely ugly.

After all, in his many years of brutal duels, those guys with attack 0 and defense 0 written on their panels were often terrifying monsters with heaven-defying abilities!

Not to mention that this was a mysterious monster that he had never seen or understood before.

Heaven knows just how powerful and deadly special effects are hidden beneath its fragile exterior.

You Yang did not answer him, but instead raised his arm again and said loudly:

"The battle to defend is not over yet!"

"I will then activate the special effect of [Horus's Glory - Imset] in the graveyard!"
