Chapter 190 The Return of Dusk
"What, what is this..." Wang Hui's lips began to tremble.
He had never encountered such a situation since he started playing the flower deck.
Logically speaking, with three flowers on the field, the dream garden has also unfolded, and even his ace monster Higanbana has been summoned, the final victory must be in his hands!
Although his deck was indeed very afraid of fire-attribute area attack spell cards, he was well aware that Yu Cang's deck could not have a soul card that met the conditions and was powerful enough due to the conflicting attributes. The only possible card was Dragon's Breath of Flame, but he had already cut off the possibility of him activating it through his own operations.
But why?
First, he inexplicably summoned a rare Saint of Formation, which was not affected by any effects. Moreover, it moved very fast and dealt high damage. It couldn't even be affected by Mandragora's [Blue Flower Poison]!
Is this something a human can do?
Although the datura has not grown for too long, there are already seven or eight flowers on the stems and leaves. If so many datura flowers attack at the same time, let alone hiding, you may not even be able to see all the attacks clearly, right?
Although Yu Cang's operation was very impressive a year ago, and Wang Hui was prepared for Yu Cang to improve, it was only a year later, so it shouldn't be exaggerated to this extent, right?
That's fine, he admitted that this Saint of the Breach was very strong, and Yu Cang's operation was also very powerful, but if you are strong, you should also be reasonable. He even pulled out the red spider lily, so why can't he beat it?
His Higanbana card is indeed not very strong, mainly because of its disgusting effect. But no matter how weak it is, it is still an epic card. How can it not beat a rare card!
Even more so, the Saint of the Formation Breach killed his Red Spider Flower without any injuries...
Is it really that outrageous?
After Higanbana was killed, he was very panicked, but he quickly calmed down. He didn't believe that there was such a perfect soul card in the world.
In other words, even if there is such a perfect card, it cannot be a rare card!
And didn’t Yu Cang say at the beginning... that he had the Dragon’s Breath in order to trick out his Thousand Dust Burial, and after tricking out this move, he immediately summoned the Saint of the Formation.
This shows that Qianchen Explosion Burial can definitely restrain the Saint of the Formation!
Maybe, Saint of the Breach is the kind of soul card that has maxed out dodge points but very fragile health.
Therefore, after the cooldown of Thousand Dust Burial ended, he immediately launched it, just to quickly kill the Saint of the Formation.
But I didn’t expect that when he turned around, hey, hey, he’d upgraded!
No, it’s boring if you play like this.
A rare card becomes epic?
This red spider lily of my own consumed three sacrifices and a spell card.
Isn't it a bit too much to just release a single card?
That's fine.
Some epic cards have relatively simple summoning conditions. The strength of these cards is generally not very high, which is acceptable.
But you...how come you killed my three Flower Summoning Cards with one blow from such a distance?
One knife!
Although his three flower summoning cards had just been pulled out of the death cooldown, they had already occupied a considerable area. Flower summoning cards were inherently very tenacious. Normally, a summoned beast that used a knife, such as the Sword Saint of Dragon's Eye, would have to wait a long time to clear them all out even if the effects were ignored.
The result was just one knife!
And it’s so far away!
When his three flower summoned beasts shattered together, he felt his heart shattered as well.
To be honest, this scene was quite shocking. The stems, leaves and flowers within a radius of about five meters around him exploded in an instant, turning into soul card fragments that slowly dissipated.
But if possible, he really didn't want this kind of shock.
Across from him, Yu Cang smiled.
The soul cards that Wang Hui took out this time really surprised him.
His deck actually contained offensive soul cards like Mandragora, and it was also the first time he had seen that large red spider lily.
It is quite large, with branches and trunk like a blue dragon, and looks quite domineering.
Yu Cang thought that this should be a very powerful big brother, but he was exposed after fighting with the Saint of Breach.
Its attack power is unclear, but its defense is as weak as paper, and its speed is also very slow. Yu Cang doubts that even if he controls the Saint of Formation Breakthrough, he can fight it.
Not very good.
Yu Cang looked at Wang Hui and said with a smile, "Hey, Wang Hui. Didn't you say that your red spider lily is immortal? Where is the other person?"
Wang Hui: “…”
To say that he is immortal is actually a bit far-fetched.
As long as the Dream Garden is on the field, you can summon the flowers on death cooldown after the death of the red spider lily. At this time, activate "Irrigation to the Underworld" again to summon the red spider lily on death cooldown again.
It really looks immortal. Wang Hui has three copies of Irrigation of the Underworld in his deck. Logically speaking, as long as the resources are managed well, Higanbana can always stay on the field.
But Wang Hui really didn't expect that the Sword Saint of Dragon's Eye could kill his three sacrifices with just one sword.
This is a bit too exaggerated.
"Don't get complacent too soon!" Wang Hui pulled out a Soul Card. "I summon: Flower·Water Lily!"
The soul card shattered, and lotus leaves appeared on the ground, spreading rapidly under the power of the dream garden.
The ability of the water lily is [Dream Highlights], which can make the target that attacks it fall into a deep sleep.
Sleeping is also a very annoying negative effect. Once hit, the summoned beast will be unable to perform any actions immediately. As long as the summoned beast is not attacked, this sleep can last indefinitely.
As long as you rush into the water lily, there is no way to break free from this slumber.
Equally disgusting.
After Wang Hui summoned the water lily, his eyes suddenly lit up.
He suddenly discovered that his Dream Garden's [Flower Guardian] ability could lock onto the Sword Saint of Dragon's Eye!
By becoming an epic card, does it lose the ability to be unaffected by effects?
Very good.
Bring it to you!
Wang Hui decisively activated his ability, and the Sword Saint of Dragon's Eye immediately paused, then slowly turned around and cast his gaze towards Yu Cang.
Seeing that his ability was successfully activated, Wang Hui wiped the sweat from his forehead.
"Yu Cang... although your move just now was brilliant, it seems I still have the advantage..."
Wang Hui's breathing is now becoming heavier.
Now, his mental pressure is not low.
Normally, a level 4 soul card master would not be able to withstand such high mental pressure with an epic venue card, Dream Garden, and an epic summoning card, Higanbana.
But the flower deck is special.
The mental stress of the plant race is not high to begin with. If the Dream Garden meets certain conditions, it can not only reduce the mental stress, but also reduce the mental stress of the flower soul card, so it is possible to maintain two epic cards at the same time.
But things are different after the Sword Saint Bull of Dragon's Eye comes over.
Wang Hui and Yu Cang each had to bear half of the mental pressure of [Flower Guardian]. But even so, the epic mental pressure combined with the Dream Garden had already reduced Wang Hui's soul energy recovery speed to zero on the spot.
Although Wang Hui had a hard time maintaining it, his expression remained unchanged and he smiled very elegantly.
After carefully feeling the Sword Saint's ability for a moment, a hint of confusion flashed in Wang Hui's eyes.
"[Bu Ritian]? What is that thing..."
He could see that it was this ability that instantly killed his three flowers, but he really couldn't tell why.
After all, just looking at the name of [Bu Ri Tian], you can't imagine what its effect is.
"So this requires Dragon Might's ability... Well, I can't use it, but the basic ability of this Soul Card is already very strong." Wang Hui raised his hand, and several Soul Cards flew out of the special card box and floated in front of him. "Let me see, which spell card should I give to the Sword Saint..."
On the opposite side, Yu Cang was not panicked at all, and even yawned.
After the Sword Saint of Dragon Eye was defeated by Niu, Feng temporarily returned to chaos and was unable to control the Sword Saint.
"Come on, don't choose." Yu Cang waved his hand, "I just let you experience it, why do you take it so seriously?"
Spell Card: Return of Dragon's Eye, ability triggered!
This is exactly what Yu Cang obtained using the entry recorder a few days ago, and it can be used to target Wang Hui's soul card.
Wang Hui had a Dream Garden a year ago. Although his Dream Garden was still rare at that time, he used this trick of Flower Guardian to defeat his Unborn Dragon many times.
The Unborn Dragon is just an ordinary card before it evolves, so it’s not too easy for Wang Hui to defeat it.
Now that Wang Hui is back, how could he not be on guard against this move of his?
The formula for this spell card is: [Spell] + [Anchor Point] + [Guardian] + [Dragon Eye]!
Yu Cang tried the formula of two common, one rare and one epic many times before he got the soul card he wanted.
Soul Card Name: Return of the Dragon Eye
Category: Spell Card
Quality: Epic
Attributes: None
ability:
[Dragon's Eye]: Target a summoned beast and grant it [Dragon's Might] and [Dragonborn].
[Return]: Target a summoned beast, record its current state, and set a condition. When the condition is triggered or the summoned beast enters its death cooldown, it returns to its recorded state. At this time, [Dragon's Eye] and [Return] become ineffective.
…
The effect is really good.
When the Sword Saint of Dragon's Eye just appeared, Yu Cang had him use [Dragon's Eye's Insight] to select this card, obtain its ability, and successfully activate it.
The trigger condition he chose at that time was naturally: when his control rights changed!
Right now!
On the field, the Sword Saint of Dragon's Eye suddenly stopped, then turned around again and turned his gaze back to Wang Hui!
At this moment, the Sword Saint's state has returned to when he was just summoned. At this time, his control has not changed!
Wang Hui, who didn't know the truth: "..."
What's the meaning.
You are awesome, I am awesome, and your summoned beast is awesome?
broken.
Now [Flower Guardian] has just been used once and cannot be activated in the short term.
I can't stop an epic summoned beast during this period of time!
Yu Cang smiled and said, "Well, you still don't surrender?"
Wang Hui knew he was probably no match for him, but he still snorted disdainfully, "Surrender? You don't really think you can win, do you?"
"I see." Yu Cang nodded. "Feng, activate [Dragon Eye's Insight] and select 'Judgment Arrow Rain'."
[End of Sight] Successfully kills the target and can choose a new spell card.
The return of the Dragon Eye only resets the Sword Master's physical condition, but does not reset his ability usage.
Wang Hui's methods have been almost weakened, and the next step is to kill him, so Yu Cang directly chose this offensive soul card.
After regaining control, Feng returned to the Sword Saint's body.
He nodded gently, placed his free hand over the scabbard, and loosely gripped it. The next second, azure energy materialized from thin air, condensing in the Sword Saint's palm!
As Feng swung his hand, a long sword condensed from energy was pulled out from the scabbard!
Double swords!
This is not the end. After drawing out the long sword, more energy long swords flew out of the scabbard and hovered behind Feng one by one.
Yu Cang's eyes lit up.
He didn't expect that after Feng used the power of Judgment Arrow Rain for himself, the effect would be so cool!
Before he could sigh, Feng had already taken action.
He moved gracefully, with his reflection following behind him. He stepped into the flowers and quickly approached Wang Hui!
Unlike the Saint of Formation Breakthrough who was slashing crazily among the flowers, the Sword Saint of Dragon Eye passed by without touching the water lilies at all.
Even if there is an occasional touch, it is only a slight touch and does not constitute an "attack" at all.
Not a single leaf gets on you!
Wang Hui was frightened to death when he saw the Sword Saint rushing towards him, but he still did not give up. He raised his hands confidently, made a boxing stance, and his eyes became sharp.
"Look down on me? I'm the underground fighter of Tiandao...Ah!!"
…
afterwards.
Wang Hui sat next to the arena and sighed softly.
Lost.
No suspense.
At that time, Wang Hui had no means of resistance. Several important soul cards were killed by [End of the Sight] and directly entered double cooling. Moreover, his own soul energy was a little insufficient. Even if it was enough, he could not stop Feng who was playing with the "flying knife" after summoning flowers.
Feng's knife skills were so delicate that Wang Hui later summoned a flower and tried to wrap himself with its vines, but there were always gaps in the vines, and every gap would become the target of Feng's knife.
Wang Hui couldn't understand why there was such a sword technique... Normally, his Flower Soul Card should be least afraid of this kind of melee unit.
The dream garden had already been laid out, but it was destroyed by a man with a knife. This was a little hard for him to accept.
"It's okay, it's normal." Yu Cang patted Wang Hui's shoulder, "It's not shameful to lose to me."
To be precise, it is not shameful to lose to Feng.
Judging from his performance today, Feng is worthy of being called the "Sword Saint of the North Sky".
Even a being like the Saint of Formation Breakthrough, who could kill anyone who touched him, could achieve such an impressive record. Yu Cang broke out in a cold sweat watching from behind several times, but Feng solved the problem very easily.
He didn't know anything else, but one thing was that Feng was able to resolve these crises while still making his movements so handsome and calm...which meant that he definitely hadn't used his full strength yet.
It’s a pity that Feng is not very willing to participate in this kind of competition between students. Although Yu Cang can force him, there is no need.
Today's stop is also for Feng to stretch his muscles and to cool down Wang Hui's arrogance.
Humph… If Feng wasn't there, I could still win, but I'd definitely have to fight Wang Hui and be disgusted by his various flower abilities. In that case, even if I won in the end, only Wang Hui would be happy.
Therefore, he decided to rely on Feng and use this head-on crushing method to get rid of Wang Hui and not give him a chance to be happy.
His tactics were simple. He just had to trick Feng into using the unavoidable skill [Thousand Dust Burial] and then just watch Feng perform quietly.
As long as you pay attention and avoid Wang Hui when he activates [Flower Guardian], there will be no problem.
In fact, in order to deal with the [Flower Guardian], Yu Cang made a lot of soul cards, but in the end, the only one that could be used was the Return of the Dragon's Eye.
There is also a soul card with good effects:
Soul Card Name: Unfaithful Change
Category: Spell Card
Quality: Rare
Attributes: None
ability:
[Defection]: Select an enemy summoned beast of Rare or lower and gain control for ten seconds. After ten seconds, control of the summoned beast returns to the original operator. While [Defection] is in effect, the summoned beast's mental stress is shared by both operators.
…
The effect of this soul card is also good, but unfortunately it can only be applied to rare ones and cannot affect the Sword Saint of Dragon Eye.
If they could select the Sword Saint, it would be equivalent to directly taking back control. After all, after ten seconds, control would be returned to the original operator, and the original operator of the Sword Saint was Yu Cang.
The formula for this Soul Card is [Loyalty] + [Control] + [Migration]. Because no suitable Epic-level attributes were successfully implanted, this card can only be of Rare quality.
…
"Cheer up, brother." Yu Cang said with a smile, "Why aren't you smiling? Don't you love to laugh?"
Wang Hui: “…”
Seeing Wang Hui's silence, Yu Cang's smile grew even wider.
Sure enough, the smile doesn't disappear, it just shifts.
"But I really admire you," Yu Cang said. "Even though you knew you would lose, you still persevered until the duel shield was broken."
"Hmph, just the basic ethics of a duelist." Wang Hui composed himself. "Alas, I miscalculated... Yu Cang, how on earth have you been getting through this past year... I originally thought that since you got the Flame Emperor Medal, you must have focused all your attention on card making and would have neglected dueling. How come your skills have become even more powerful than before?"
"That's not me operating it." Yu Cang didn't hide what Wang Hui meant, "It's my soul card fighting for me."
Wang Hui: "...Okay, okay, I get it. This is your bond."
Seeing that Wang Hui didn't believe him, Yu Cang spread his hands.
You don’t even believe the truth?
At this time, Qi'er had also come to Yu Cang's side and threw herself into Yu Cang's arms: "Brother is so awesome!"
Seeing this scene, Wang Hui couldn't help but feel a flicker of envy in his eyes, but it quickly disappeared. "Tsk... I've noticed that after returning to the ancient capital, your life is even more comfortable than in the imperial capital. It's really a waste of my time worrying about you on Tiandao Island."
"I didn't see you call me for money even though I was worried."
"Ahem..." Wang Hui coughed a few times, took out a soul card from his pocket, and changed the subject. "Well, I lost the duel, I abide by the agreement, this soul card is yours."
"Let me see." Yu Cang took it and looked over.
Soul Card Name: Dusk Returns
Category: Spell Card
Quality: Rare
Attributes: Light/Dark
ability:
[Dusk]: After activation, select all equipment cards on the field whose current attributes are light or dark, and change the light attribute to dark attribute, and the dark attribute to light attribute.
[Return]: When a summoned beast equipped with a light or dark attribute equipment card is about to enter death cooldown, you can disconnect this card in death cooldown, thereby preventing the summoned beast from entering death cooldown and refreshing its status.
…
"This is it." Yu Cang raised his brows.
"I picked it especially for you. What do you think?" Wang Hui smiled. "Isn't it suitable for your performance as the Dragon of Light and Shadow?"
"...It is indeed suitable." Yu Cang nodded.
You should know that the dragon scales on the field are considered equipment cards.
In other words, this card's [Dusk] can be effective on dragon scales, meaning it can transform between black and white dragon scales!
This is undoubtedly a great enhancement for the Dragon of Light and Shadow.
[Second Coming] is even more powerful.
Here is a little knowledge: unborn dragons, or the current young true dragons, can be equipped with dragon scales, and after they complete their evolution, the black dragons and white dragons can also be regarded as equipped with dragon scales!
In other words, as long as this card is in death cooldown, it can protect the Black and White Dragon from one fatal damage, and directly refresh the status, allowing the Black and White Dragon to return to the time when it was first summoned!
Think about it, you finally managed to beat the black and white dragon to a low health level and were about to kill it, but the next second, its health was restored to full while your resources were almost exhausted. How desperate it is!
"But..." Yu Cang frowned slightly, "I remember this card being a Soul Card from a deck called 'Knights of Day and Night', right? This card should have Self-Suppression, so it can't be used in other decks."
Knights of Day and Night is also a very popular deck. This deck has added a large number of light and dark attribute equipment cards. The core summoning cards are several day and night knights. These knights will show different effects when equipped with light and dark attribute equipment. Some summoned beasts will also gain some more powerful abilities when the light and dark attributes of the equipment cards are converted.
This deck was quite popular abroad, and as a renowned light and dark attribute deck, Yu Cang had naturally done extensive research on it, and was also aware of this card, Dusk Resurrection. Initially, he had tried to overcome this card's self-respect, but even his teacher, Wu Chutai, had no idea how to do it, let alone him.
Although Wu Chutai's character is not very good, his card-making skills are still worthy of recognition - after all, his age and level are there.
"Hmm." Wang Hui waved his hand. "The Soul Card I gave you definitely didn't have Self-Avoidance... Here's the thing. I met a very talented card maker on Sky Island. I helped him out a little, and later discovered that he had a deep understanding of the Knights of Day and Night deck, so I asked him to remove Self-Avoidance—and hey, he actually managed to do it. So I brought this card back and gave it to you."
"Hmm..." Yu Cang didn't say anything.
Tiandao, who has a deep understanding of the Knights of Day and Night...
If he can get rid of Zisu, he must be at least stronger than Wu Chutai... He is most likely a guardian of the country.
Tiandao possesses a national guardian that resonates with light and dark attributes... Could it be that Wang Hui encountered the original author of Knights of Day and Night?!
If this is true... then Wang Hui must have spent a lot of money, and at that level, money is nothing. Wang Hui may have paid some other price.
Yu Cang turned his head and looked at Wang Hui's expression which remained the same as always.
"Okay, thanks, brother." Yu Cang patted Wang Hui's shoulder, "Let's go, it's my treat tonight."
