Chapter 1370: Power of Immortality

Red-haired twin-tailed loli... I didn't expect you to be such a Sacred Beast.

Fujiki You Xuan pondered.

He had roughly confirmed it. Grandpa said that since meeting that twin-tailed loli, Saya's illness seemed to have naturally improved, which was probably also Uria's credit.

Sacred Beasts have a lot of experience in health management, and Principal Sheppard in the original work undoubtedly has the most say in this.

The chapter where the three Sacred Beasts appeared in the anime was originally because Principal Sheppard of the Duel Academy was old and frail, suffering from an incurable disease and could only rely on life-support equipment to continue his life.

But after getting the Sacred Beast card, the old man in the life-support pod recovered to his prime in the blink of an eye, all his illnesses were cleared, and he was resurrected in full state on the spot, becoming energetic and even stronger than his peak period.

This is also one of the incidental abilities of the Sacred Beasts. People who get Sacred Beast cards can almost be said to be immortal, free from all diseases, and immortal...

Well, it's a bit exaggerated to say so. In fact, it's not true "immortality". Because longevity is not without a price.

When Sheppard controlled the Sacred Beasts in the anime, he used the Sacred Beasts to absorb the life force of other Duel Monster spirits, took away the life of the monsters and converted it into his own energy, so he could clear all the illnesses on his body and change from a dying old man to his prime in one breath.

So the power of the Sacred Beasts is not creating life out of thin air, nor can it make duelists immortal indefinitely. In a strict sense, this supplemented life is plundered from others or other spirits.

The true ability of the Sacred Beasts is actually to absorb and take away life energy.

However, although it is not true longevity, it is conceivable that this special nature is enough to be heaven-defying, and enough to make the hegemons of various worlds in history crazy.

Relying on plundering to live forever, for the heroes who don't care about the lives of others, it is equivalent to living as long as heaven and earth. In any worldview, this is an astonishing ability enough to cause the world's pattern to fluctuate.

It is even more conceivable that the mere existence of such an ability is enough to cause a sensation and become the fuse of troubled times.

And the attribute of "plundering life" itself sounds very evil. No matter what era it is, once exposed, it is very easy to be classified into the camp of "evil ways".

Perhaps it is precisely because of this that the three Sacred Beasts have always been crowned with titles like "Demon King of the World" in various legends, including in the GX dimension. When Principal Sheppard introduced the concept of the three Sacred Beasts to Jaden and others, he said that this was a card that would bring endless chaos and darkness to the world.

"What happened later?" Fujiki You Xuan asked. "How did you know that the girl was a Sacred Beast?"

The old man showed a look of surprise instantly.

"You... how do you know...?"

He hadn't even mentioned that the girl named Uria was a Sacred Beast, but Fujiki You Xuan seemed to have guessed it, and there was no surprise at all throughout the process.

You know, the fact that "Sacred Beast is a loli" was a serious impact on the worldview even for the old man, and it took a while to slow down.

However, he also realized that this duelist was not an ordinary person, so he continued: "Ah, yes. It was just recently..."

He looked at Saya behind him with some melancholy and sighed.

"Actually, recently, the village seems to have come with some other forces. Although I am just a mortal, I can feel it slightly..."

The old man's expression was serious.

"And that girl who claimed to be Uria stood up at that time."

Fujiki You Xuan roughly understood.

It means that the village was threatened by some kind of foreign invaders. So Uria revealed her true body and stood up to confront the unknown enemy.

"But since then, her identity has been exposed, and she has never appeared in front of Saya again," the old man sighed. "To be honest, I even had a fluke idea at that time. In the legend, Sacred Beasts are all heinous monsters. Although it is the image of a girl, contacting Saya still makes me feel uneasy. And the villagers are also afraid of Sacred Beasts... No, even they probably still think that the Sacred Beast is cursing and harming our village, bringing down a curse on this village, just like the disaster that happened many years ago."

Saya looked up: "Uria is very good! She was clearly trying to protect everyone..."

The old man shook his head and didn't speak.

He actually believed this statement in his heart, but who would believe it if he said it?

The Sacred Beast, which is ominous in the legend, has been passed down from generation to generation that it will bring disaster as long as it appears in the world, is actually fighting to protect this village? Such a thing would only be suspected by others that the old man is too old and mentally confused if he said it.

Even if he knew it was the truth.

"So Uria... no, or should it be Uria? Has been busy with this recently." Fujiki You Xuan thought.

So the power of the Uria card in his hand felt weakened?

No, it's still a bit strange.

Sacred Beast cards are cards with spirits, but the spirit body is actually still in the Spirit World, just like most other spirits. Generally speaking, the spirits summoned by duelists are in a state of clone projection, although they borrow the power of the main body, it does not affect the main body's life and fighting in its own world.

But now Fujiki You Xuan could feel that the power of Uria was obviously weakened. Could it be that Uria was beaten in the recent battle?

But this is a Sacred Beast. Although it is not the strongest, it is already a top-level strong person in the Duel Monster world. Who can make it eat shriveled in such a village?

Just thinking about this, Fujiki You Xuan felt that the deck he was carrying seemed to have some reaction again.

He sensed it slightly, and realized that it was the other two Sacred Beasts, Hamon, Lord of Striking Thunder, and Raviel, Lord of Phantasms, talking to him.

However, they didn't clearly say anything to him, but just gave him a rough reminder.

Uria is near Fujiki You Xuan, and is releasing pressure, perhaps fighting.

Fujiki You Xuan felt it, got up and pushed the door out.

At this time, there was thunder outside, and the dark clouds seemed to be pressing down. Not far away, the figure of the red giant dragon flashed by, and it seemed to be facing a boundless darkness, like a demon god gathered by black clouds.

And the red giant dragon was slowly falling, as if exhausted, gradually turning into a phantom and dissipating.

Did it lose?

Fujiki You Xuan thought for a moment, stepped forward, and walked towards the direction where the chaos was raging and the thunder was flashing.

The closer he got, the more he felt invisible resistance, and the wind seemed to be releasing invisible resistance to prevent him from moving forward. But Fujiki You Xuan was not afraid, and he didn't need his order at all. Silent had already appeared and waved his staff, releasing a pale transparent barrier to offset all the pressure for Fujiki You Xuan.

A good secretary is to understand the leader's eyes and not always wait for the other party to speak.

Fujiki You Xuan walked closer, and saw from afar a petite red-haired twin-tailed figure kneeling on the ground, looking panting with sweat.
