Chapter 933: Challenging the Yeshen
Chapter 933: Challenging the Yeshen
Shin'enhou Uria, arise once more!
"So, the Huanmo is still lingering," Eradicator sneered, his tone dripping with contempt. It seemed that as an esteemed Yeshen, he held little regard for the Huanmo.
Shin'enhou Uria let out a defiant roar, but it was faint, as if afraid to make too much noise, sounding somewhat aggrieved.
"The effect of Shin'enhou Uria," You Xuan announced, "Scan and destroy all Trap Cards in the opponent's back row."
Trap Destruction!"
Uria unleashed its power once more, and transparent sound waves burst from its mouth. The two face-down cards in the Priest's back row responded, the face-down cards trembled slightly, indicating they were both Traps.
"As expected," Eradicator hummed, raising his hand.
"Then, in response to Uria's effect, I activate the face-down card, Trap Card 'Line of Defense'! Revive a monster in Defense Position from the Graveyard!"
"Again with this old trick?" You Xuan muttered.
"Tremble, mortal!" Eradicator laughed, "Once more, I summon myself from the Graveyard—
—Yeshen Eradicator, descend!"
The ground began to tremble, and the sky darkened. Thunder roared, as if the ultimate terror was about to awaken once more!
After Eradicator's revival, even though You Xuan had few cards on the field this turn, Eradicator's attack power wasn't high, but it still formed a formidable defense. No matter how it was defeated, the effect of sending all cards on the field to the Graveyard would be triggered immediately.
Furthermore, even if nothing was done, the divine being summoned at the end of the turn would be automatically sent to the Graveyard, triggering the ability of End of All. This would force You Xuan to face the opponent's turn with an empty field once again.
However, You Xuan had a countermeasure this time.
"I discard a monster, 'Executioner's Demon,' with Angel's Charity. This turn, I can activate a Trap Card from my hand."
You Xuan played the Trap Card from his hand.
"Trap Card 'Trap Nullification'! This turn, all Trap Cards on the field, except this one, become invalid!"
The invisible binding force of the Trap Prohibition field erupted, instantly suppressing Eradicator's activated Trap power. The thunderclouds in the sky dimmed, and the dark vortex of Eradicator's resurrection gradually dissipated.
"So, you've prepared a countermeasure for my Eradicator's revival combo," Eradicator chuckled, "But unfortunately for you, my tactics are even more formidable! I activate the second face-down card!
Trap Card 'Line of Defense'!"
"Oh?" You Xuan asked, "Is it the same Trap Card again?"
"Indeed!"
Eradicator burst into laughter.
"The second Line of Defense is chained to your Trap Nullification, so it was already processed before Trap Nullification took effect.
Once more, I revive myself from the Graveyard—
Yeshen Eradicator, descend!"
Endless darkness, as if the ultimate curse and hatred of the world, materialized into the ultimate evil form.
Yeshen Eradicator, summoned again!
[Yeshen Eradicator, Defense Points?]
"It's been summoned again," You Xuan muttered.
"Hahaha, a mere Huanmo, how can it stand against a Yeshen?" Eradicator smirked, "Well, do you still intend to attack?"
Indeed, although Shin'enhou Uria's attack power exceeded the opponent's, attacking would only result in mutual destruction. Eradicator would take Shin'enhou Uria down with him.
Moreover, summoning a new monster was futile; it couldn't get past Eradicator's defensive line.
And this turn, Shin'enhou Uria used its effect to revive itself, so if a new monster is summoned, Shin'enhou Uria will also be unable to attack due to its self-imposed restriction.
It's possible to use Shin'enhou Uria to defeat Eradicator, and then summon a new monster, but that would mean the Battle Phase is over, and this turn won't be able to deal effective damage to the opponent.
You Xuan slowly drew a card from his hand.
"No choice, I'll use this move." He smiled strangely, "Saiou-san, once again, lend me your power for a moment."
Eradicator: "?"
What is this kid muttering about again?
"Field Spell, 'Light Barrier'!"
A new field was inserted into the Duel Disk, and a blinding white light burst forth. The barrier quickly spread beneath both duelists, enveloping the entire duel field in a pure white domain!
Eradicator frowned, "What?"
"Light Barrier, a field exclusive to the Mystical Power cards." You Xuan smiled, "Within the Light Barrier, only Mystical Power monsters can use their monster effects. All other monster effects on both sides of the field become invalid." (Original Effect)
Eradicator: "Oh?"
"Although one side of our field has a God, and the other a Demon." You Xuan explained, "But Gods are affected by the effects of Spell Cards for one turn, and Demons must also accept the effects of Spell Cards activated this turn.
Therefore, for this turn only, Uria and Eradicator's monster effects become invalid."

Eradicator: "Our attack and defense power come from monster effects, if they are invalidated..."
[Shin'enhou Uria, 0 ATK]
[Yeshen Eradicator, 0 DEF]
"So what?" Eradicator scoffed, "The barrier only restricts the activation of monster effects on the field, but once I return to the Graveyard, the ability of End of All will still activate."
Indeed, Eradicator's critical ability activates in the Graveyard, and Light Barrier can't restrict it. The one severely restricted by this barrier is actually Shin'enhou Uria.
You Xuan calmly said, "Next, I activate the Equip Spell 'Premature Burial' from my hand, paying 800 Life Points to revive a monster in Attack Position from the Graveyard."
[You Xuan, LP 3500 → LP 2700]
"I revive the other card discarded by Angel's Charity.
The Mystic Power that manipulates the future and transcends time—
—Mystical Power 21 - World!"
[Mystical Power 21 - World, 3100 ATK]
"Mystical Power?" Eradicator coldly smiled, "So that's it, a card that once housed a certain power of light. But now it's just an empty shell with a remnant of power, and even if it wasn't, it's nothing to be afraid of.
Do you think this can defeat me?"
"Oh? You think it can't?"
You Xuan slowly played another card from his hand.
"Quick-Play Magic, 'Moonlight Book'!"
A massive book appeared on the field, its cover a dark, light blue with a crescent moon insignia. The mysterious pages slowly opened, and a new moon rose slowly above the book.
The mystical power was released, enveloping the Yeshen Eradicator, whose color had dimmed under the Light Barrier.
"Quick-Play Magic, 'Moonlight Book', changes a monster on the field to face-down defense position.
I turn 'Yeshen Eradicator' face-down."
