In this wasteland world reshaped by card rules, duel is no longer a game, but a cruel law of survival.
In every duel, both sides will be forced into an alien space. The loser will be turned into a crystal "soul crystal", which will become the winner's trophy and life-extending prop. Collect 100 crystals to open the legendary "Door of Return" and return to your homeland.
Dongfang Shuo, a time traveler from Blue Star, fell into this desperate purgatory at the beginning. His duel plate was empty.
The iron rules of "high-speed duel" are followed here: streamlined decks, limited venues, and extra decks that determine life and death. Every card may be a life-saving straw or a life-saving charm.
From struggling to survive in the ruins to thrilling hunts in the wilderness of beasts, Dongfang Shuo step by step embarks on this road to the throne of thorns. Not only does he have to face greedy duelists and ferocious wild monsters, but he also has to explore the ultimate secret behind this world about the materialization of cards and the collapse of civilization.
When he finally held the cursed demon, Yubel, in his arms, he understood that what he was pursuing was not just a way home, but a throne above the rules.
