Chapter 175

"Silver Moon Eye!" Vivian conjured a silver moon hanging in the sky, and the silhouette of the frost bone dragon atop the snow mountain peak was instantly refracted.

Named entities: Silver Moon Eye (technique), Vivian (Vivian), Snow Mountain Peak (place), Frost Bone Dragon. Also maybe Silver Moon appears but it's part of the technique.

I followed the traces left by the space teleportation and came here.

No named entities.

"Princess, we still need some time; we have to stop it!" Ailianna said solemnly. As Lily's personal maid who knows her best, she knows what magic Lily is preparing.

Named entities: Princess (title), Ailianna (Ailianna), Lily (Lily). Also maybe "personal maid" is not a name.

"Vivian, you stay behind; the three of us will go together!" Mu Yi said, making a quick decision upon hearing that.

Named entities: Vivian (Vivian), Mu Yi (Mu Yi).

"Alright!" Toraya's body was engulfed in scarlet light, clearly getting serious.

Named entities: Toraya (Toraya).

Vivian tore a magic scroll from her backpack, and the magical light fell on Mu Yi and his two companions, making Mu Yi feel light as if he had lost gravity's hold.

Named entities: Vivian (Vivian), Mu Yi (Mu Yi).

——Group Flight Technique

Named entity: Group Flight Technique (Group Flight Technique).

"Come on, don't let it get close!"

Named entities: Ailianna (Ailianna), Giant War Hammer (giant war hammer? maybe not a name), Frost Bone Dragon (Frost Bone Dragon).

——Thunder Fury

Named entity: Thunder Fury (Thunder Fury).

However, Mu Yi had put away his battle formation blade, and he already felt the surge of holy light and fire elements behind him.

Named entities: Mu Yi (Mu Yi), Battle Formation Blade (battle formation blade? maybe not a name), Holy Light Element (Holy Light Element), Fire Element (Fire Element). These might be considered elements but not named entities? They are generic.

Mu Yi furrowed his brows, using a shield wall again to block the ice breath for the two, then fired an arrow straight into the frost bone dragon's eye socket, provoking another roar.

Named entities: Mu Yi (Mu Yi), Shield Wall (shield wall? generic), Frost Bone Dragon (Frost Bone Dragon).

"Boom!"

No.

Mu Yi and Toraya were blown back by the gale, while Ailianna, wrapped in thunder, pierced through the wind-formed barrier and appeared directly above Safirion's head.

Named entities: Mu Yi (Mu Yi), Toraya (Toraya), Ailianna (Ailianna), Safirion (Safirion? maybe name). Also "thunder" maybe generic.

The ice breath exploded in the bone dragon's mouth, instantly blowing half of the already battered frost bone dragon's skull apart.

Named entities: Bone Dragon (bone dragon? generic), Frost Bone Dragon (Frost Bone Dragon).

A giant sword descended from the firmament to cleave the frost bone dragon Safirion.

Named entities: Giant Sword (giant sword? generic), Frost Bone Dragon Safirion (Frost Bone Dragon Safirion).

The next moment, a blue ice breath spewed from its mouth, aimed directly at Ailianna, who had crashed to the ground.

Named entities: Ailianna (Ailianna).

"Boom!"

No.

The explosive arrow detonated in the frost bone dragon's eye socket, the blazing fire igniting the dragon's soul; accompanied by Safirion's painful roar, its entire body crashed onto the snow.

Named entities: Explosive Arrow (explosive arrow? generic), Frost Bone Dragon (Frost Bone Dragon), Bone Dragon (bone dragon), Safirion (Safirion).

The frost bone dragon Safirion clearly noticed Mu Yi and his companions; flapping its wings stirred up a wind mixed with ice and snow.

Named entities: Frost Bone Dragon Safirion (Frost Bone Dragon Safirion), Mu Yi (Mu Yi).

"In the name of the Silver Moon!" Vivian clasped her hands and prayed to the firmament; a phantom silver moon appeared over Safirion's body, instantly slowing his movements as if sealed.

Named entities: Silver Moon's Name (Silver Moon's Name? maybe technique), Vivian (Vivian), Firmament (firmament? generic), Safirion (Safirion).

However, at that very moment of the Silver Moon Seal, it bought Toraya and Ailianna enough time; they rushed to the left and right of the frost bone dragon's bone wings and struck with all their might.

Named entities: Silver Moon Seal (Silver Moon Seal? technique), Toraya (Toraya), Ailianna (Ailianna), Frost Bone Dragon (Frost Bone Dragon).

Mu Yi picked up the card condensed after Safirion's death; compared to the previous Snow Monster King, the frost bone dragon Safirion is obviously far more precious.

Named entities: Mu Yi (Mu Yi), Safirion (Safirion), Snow Monster King (Snow Monster King? maybe a named monster), Frost Bone Dragon Safirion (Frost Bone Dragon Safirion).

"Event Tip: Complete the Sphinx's Fate Enlightenment to gain 10 personal points!"

From the firmament above, a huge phantom condensed from holy light extends downward, resembling a giant sword wrapped in sacred flames.

Named entities: Firmament (firmament), Holy Light (Holy Light), Giant Sword (giant sword).

"Roar!"

No.

Moreover, a thick layer of ice armor condensed on its exterior.

No.

"Boom!"

No.

Mu Yi condensed hundreds of Asura shields into a heavy shield wall in front of Ailianna, pushing both her and himself back dozens of meters by the ice breath, plowing two deep grooves into the ground with their feet.

Named entities: Mu Yi (Mu Yi), Asura Shield (Asura Shield), Shield Wall (shield wall), Ailianna (Ailianna), Ice Breath (ice breath? generic).

The massive explosive impact caused the snow mountain to tremble, dumping vast amounts of snow and creating an avalanche-like disaster that affected all living beings on the mountain.

Named entities: Snow Mountain (Snow Mountain), Avalanche (avalanche? generic).

The bone dragon plunged straight down from the sky to the ground, only stabilizing its posture upon impact and flinging Ailianna aside.

"Clang!"

No.

The heavy hammer came down with unstoppable force, striking the bone dragon's skull heavily.

Named entities: Heavy Hammer (heavy hammer? generic), Bone Dragon (bone dragon).

"Rumble!"

No.

The ice armor on the frost bone dragon Safirion began to melt even before the holy fire giant sword fully descended; Safirion became rigid under the holy light's glare, and as the sword came down completely, holy light burst forth, and the holy fire in the roar completely consumed Safirion.

Named entities: Frost Bone Dragon Safirion (Frost Bone Dragon Safirion), Holy Fire Giant Sword (Holy Fire Giant Sword), Holy Light (Holy Light), Giant Sword (giant sword), Holy Fire (Holy Fire).

The enraged bone dragon swung its tail, knocking Toraya flying; Vivian reached out to pull her back, preventing her from hitting the ground and suffering secondary damage.

Named entities: Bone Dragon (bone dragon), Toraya (Toraya), Vivian (Vivian).

However, the next moment the silver moon shattered, and the frost bone dragon flapped its bone wings, trying to take flight and return to the sky.

Named entities: Silver Moon (Silver Moon), Frost Bone Dragon (Frost Bone Dragon).

The icy blue dragon breath raged in the dust, directly forcing Toraya and Ailianna to retreat!

Named entities: Dragon Breath (dragon breath? generic), Toraya (Toraya), Ailianna (Ailianna).

The frost bone dragon roared, emitting endless icy blue light from its body.

Named entities: Frost Bone Dragon (Frost Bone Dragon).

Named entities: Snow Mountain Secret Realm Leader (Snow Mountain Secret Realm Leader? maybe title), Frost Bone Dragon Safirion (Frost Bone Dragon Safirion), Field Card·Snow Mountain (Field Card·Snow Mountain).

Bloody moonlight and flashing thunder struck the frost bone dragon back into the ground.

Named entities: Moonlight (moonlight), Thunder (thunder), Frost Bone Dragon (Frost Bone Dragon).

Giant dragons are the rulers of the sky; only there can they unleash their full power.

Named entities: Giant Dragon (Dragon).

The war hammer's blue patterns burst with arcs of electricity; an ancient yet heavy aura surged from it, and even against the frost bone dragon's sky‑covering form, this aura showed no sign of weakness.

Named entities: War Hammer (war hammer), Frost Bone Dragon (Frost Bone Dragon).

Within the icy blue glow, the frost bone dragon appeared to be repairing its damage—not only its broken wings, but also its shattered skull began to mend.

Named entities: Frost Bone Dragon (Frost Bone Dragon).

"Can it even withstand this?"

No.

【Frost Bone Dragon Safirion】

Named entity: Frost Bone Dragon Safirion (Frost Bone Dragon Safirion).

"Roar!"

Named entities: Fate Wheel (Fate Wheel), Fate Threads (Fate Threads), Sphinx (Sphinx).

"Roar!"

No.

They have bought time for Lily; now it's up to Lily's magic.

Named entities: Lily (Lily).

"Thud!" Toraya's body plummeted straight from the sky like a falling meteor, instantly snapping shut the frost bone dragon's gaping maw.

Named entities: Toraya (Toraya), Frost Bone Dragon (Frost Bone Dragon).

Mu Yi drew his bow, taking aim at the frost bone dragon as it began to take flight.

Named entities: Mu Yi (Mu Yi), Bow and Arrow (bow and arrow? generic), Frost Bone Dragon (Frost Bone Dragon).

Star Level: Nine-Star

No.

Special Effect:

No.

Safirion's soul fire in his eye sockets flickered; he lifted his head, took a deep breath, and the bone framework of his mouth slightly opened, preparing to unleash a second, more violent ice breath at Mu Yi.

Named entities: Safirion (Safirion), Soul Fire (soul fire? generic), Mu Yi (Mu Yi), Ice Breath (ice breath).

1. Upon successful summoning, directly summon the Field Card·Frost Snow Mountain from the deck.

Description: The dead Dragon, its lingering resentment revives amid frost and bitter cold, and once awakened it will carry out a thorough hunt of any intruder.

【Frosty Snow Mountain】

Type: Field Card

Effect: Within the Frosty Snow Mountain area, monsters that are not Ice attribute will suffer a continuous slowing effect and cold damage.

Description: A towering snow‑capped mountain blanketed by severe cold, home to abundant mountain creatures.

The party led by Harvest left the Snow Mountain secret realm, and after they departed, everything inside the realm rewound like time, restoring to its original state as if nothing had occurred.

"Pretty much as estimated. Next we split into two groups: you use these cards to clear the secret realm, we'll go to another realm to clear it, and accumulate points as fast as possible!"

After returning to the event hall, Lily handed all the cards she had obtained along the way to Mu Yi, though most were common cards; however, since they were all snow‑mountain creatures, they paired well with the field cards.

"To qualify for the next stage, the team needs only 1,000 total points; if all goes well, we'll gather them quickly!"

"If you encounter a ten‑star monster card, you can call us. Our goal isn't just clearing the secret realm, but also collecting as many high‑level cards as possible!"

The task was clear; Mu Yi nodded, took his deck, and walked toward the mysterious old man.

"Wheel of Fate, grant me enlightenment!" Mu Yi, imitating Lily's manner, whispered to the mysterious old man.

"Fate will bring enlightenment to all warriors!"

The mysterious old man tapped his cane on the floor.

The Wheel of Fate began to turn again, and this time, the statue of Anubis lit up.

"The worst is the best!"

The riddle‑like fate enlightenment made Mu Yi's brow twitch; weren't Anubis's enlightenments supposed to be positive? Why is this one so odd?

Nevertheless, despite his doubt, Mu Yi didn't linger and stepped through the Gate of Fate into the secret realm.

Upon entering the gate, Mu Yi felt a scorching heat wave sweep over him, the complete opposite of the previous snow mountain.

"... Such bad luck?"

Mu Yi scratched his head; this environment is clearly unsuitable for snow‑mountain tactics, entirely suppressed by the surroundings.

Mu Yi looked up at the almost blinding scorching sun overhead, then glanced forward.

The intense heat warped the air; in the endless desert lay two dunes with a plain between them, upon which stood a pyramid‑shaped structure, and in front of it were two towering giant Anubis stone statues.

While Mu Yi was observing, he noticed a figure appearing on the opposite dune.

He blinked, and Mu Yi instantly realized it was another Zongwang Player; beyond the initial secret realm, later realms may feature an unpredictable number of other Zongwang Players, since it's a large event and they can't just solo grind forever.

Another dune.

"I hate the desert!"

La Luo La stared at the distant figure, helplessly scratching his head; his main deck is a water‑type deck, and this blasted desert has reduced his combat power to trash.

"Let's start with a greeting!"

Even though his main deck was countered, as a veteran who's been in the event since the start, it didn't faze him; he swiftly prepared a deck.

"Quicksand!"

Seeing Mu Yi approach, already crossing the midfield line, La Luo La didn't hesitate to activate the magic card in his hand.

【Activity Notice: Another duelist wishes to challenge you; duel is about to begin】

【Please select your deck】

At the instant the magic card landed, Mu Yi received an activity notice, and then he saw all the cards he owned appear before him, all turning into particles that surged into the stars on his wrist.

He hasn't even collected forty cards yet.

However, Mu Yi also noticed the desert beneath his feet turning into a vortex, a strong pull emanating from it as if trying to draw him underground.

In a normal world, this would be powerless; even if Mu Yi were buried underground, he could smash through the soil with his strength.

But in this source world, an environment forged by divine power is not something he can destroy.

Mu Yi's form became a bolt of lightning, bursting out of the vortex.

"No cards? You can't be a rookie, can you?"

La Luo La watched the charging Mu Yi with some doubt, but as Mu Yi drew nearer, he pushed the doubts aside.

Regardless of what's on the other side, he just proceeds at his own pace.

Silently tossing a trap card, La Luo La drew a great axe from his pack and leapt down from the dune, charging at Mu Yi.

"Give me a slash!"

Gripping the axe shaft with both hands, he delivered a powerful jumping slash, striking Mu Yi from the front.

—— Guillotine

Mu Yi dodged the cleave, brandished his sword, and spun two silver crescent moons toward La Luo La.

However, when Mu Yi's sword landed on La Luo La, the trap card La Luo La had previously thrown to the ground suddenly activated, a burst of light emanating from it.

—— Trap Card: Reflective Mirror Force

A mirror appeared on La Luo La's body; the sword struck the mirror, which shattered in an instant, but Mu Yi was blasted away by a force, rolling twice on the ground before getting up.

Mu Yi, surprised, covered his chest; his attack was completely reflected back, and looking at the opponent, it seemed to cause no damage at all.

He couldn't block or dispel the previous attack at all, as if it were a fixed assault directly affecting him.

After all, it was an attack launched by divine power; he couldn't parry it at all.

Just as Mu Yi was about to regroup, he suddenly found his feet bound by quicksand, unable to break free.

Even as he struggled, he began sinking deeper into the quicksand.

"Oh no! Completely fallen into their trap!"

Mu Yi now understood that in this deck‑based battle, a non‑deck user like himself was at a clear disadvantage.

Having realized this, Mu Yi simply gave up struggling and tossed out an Ice Element monster card.

However, the visibly summoned Ice Element appeared shrunken, its size reduced noticeably due to the environment.

The Ice Element's hands clapped together, firing several ice spikes that forced the axe‑wielding La Luo La to retreat.

So you're also an unlucky fool restrained by the environment, but you only start using cards now—too late!

Mu Yi's monster card made La Luo La feel that they had uncovered some truth.

La Luo La tossed a monster card, and a creature resembling a wolf‑dog sprang from the card, then lunged toward the ice element.

La Luo La themselves charged at Mu Yi, gripping a great axe with both hands and hacking straight at Mu Yi.

But in the next second, the space abruptly shifted, and La Luo La found themselves pulled into a blood‑red space.

Mu Yi raised the blade and sword in hand, blocking the axe.

"Impossible!" La Luo La blurted, that was an environment formed of divine power; how could Mu Yi possibly break free of it?

Yet in the next instant, they reacted.

Ordinary attacks obviously won't work; to counter divine power, one needs divine power.

"Thank you for the lesson! Then... goodbye!"

After pushing La Luo La back, Mu Yi snapped his fingers, and an Asura‑form longsword coalesced from all eight directions, then speared toward La Luo La's body.

"What a... monster!"

La Luo La, pierced through from head to toe by the longsword, gazed at Mu Yi's figure and, with great effort, uttered a final word.

He now understood: Mu Yi is indeed a dueling novice, yet at the same time, Mu Yi is a powerful Transcendent monster.

To have even a single move pass through Mu Yi's hand is already a triumph for his deck!

In this world, the strong remain strong, and a deck merely gives the weak a sliver of a chance to reverse the situation.
