Chapter 1207: The Coordination of the Two

Chapter 1207: The Coordination of the Two

This was a new attempt, one that Lin Nuo couldn’t accomplish alone.

No choice—his original sword had already recognized Liu Shuqin as its master.

As for his new sword, it wasn’t a pure Demon Sword; its composition was a mishmash of everything, with a dilute lineage. While it was flexible and useful, when it came to limits, it was certainly not on par with the original sword.

He could only rely on Liu Shuqin’s strength.

The two worked in tandem.

To be honest, the last time there was talk about their cooperation, it involved Su Kexin.

It was a complete mess; their moves were completely out of sync—talk about coordination, it was chaos!

But it did yield some results.

Perhaps the Phoenix Twin Swords were originally meant for partners; as long as both wielders were in sync, they could unleash their true potential.

Now, could Liu Shuqin’s Demon Sword possibly blend with his mixed-bag sword? These weren’t even partner swords to begin with.

It felt like gambling, and Lin Nuo was putting in his bet.

Yes, he was betting on the ability to display their might.

After all, he felt there was something special about combining both swords during his dual-wielding practice.

“Synchronization? This… Junior Martial Brother, I’m afraid I can’t… How could I ever keep up with your rhythm…?”

Liu Shuqin was self-aware; who in the world could match Lin Nuo’s pace?

No one, absolutely no one. His combat rhythm was extremely fast, and his moves were unpredictable—who could foresee what he would do next?

She certainly couldn’t.

If she couldn’t, how could they synchronize?

“It’s fine, just let me keep up with your rhythm.”

“You tracking my rhythm… doesn’t that mean torture for you, Junior Martial Brother…? It completely constrains you…”

“Stop pushing back! If it doesn’t work, we’ll hang here together.”

Lin Nuo was no longer speaking kindly to Liu Shuqin. With her personality, being humble and deferential was one thing, but now she was pushing back!

He, Lin Nuo, wasn’t going to spend time going back and forth like Tai Chi with her.

“All you need to do is perform as you usually do; don’t worry about anything else. I’ll adapt to your rhythm.”

“Alright, I’ll give it a try.”

Liu Shuqin took a deep breath. She felt a tremendous pressure; after all, it was about Lin Nuo adapting to her instead. Who was she to receive such trust?

Moreover, this was a critical step, and if she messed up, the blame would be heavy.

But looking at it from another angle, being entrusted with such an important task was a form of trust from her Junior Martial Brother, wasn’t it?

Exactly, so she just needed to give it her all. She was certain that she and her Junior Martial Brother could coordinate well.

Liu Shuqin gathered her strength and suddenly dashed forward. Although Lin Nuo told her to proceed normally, her nerves made her hyper-aware of him.

So when she swung her sword, it wasn’t as fluid, and Lin Nuo struggled to keep up with her rhythm. Her anxiety made it difficult for him to synchronize with her tense pace.

Their twin swords struck but were repelled by Master Cong’s energy.

“Are you nervous?” Lin Nuo asked.

“Ah… Junior Martial Brother, I’m sorry, I couldn’t manage…”

“Don’t blame yourself; I don’t need that from you. Just relax and act as you would normally. Forget about me! You just need to display your flair. Of course, it’s fine if you mess up; if one try doesn’t work, we have another. We’re not limited to just one chance.”

Lin Nuo spoke patiently, trying to ease Liu Shuqin’s tension. If she couldn’t relax and remained nervous, it would be tough for him to coordinate.

Liu Shuqin took another deep breath, adjusting her mental state and relaxing her body.

Don’t overthink; her Junior Martial Brother would handle it. All she needed to do was act as she normally would.

Alright, strike!

Liu Shuqin focused completely, channeling her spirit power into the Spirit Sword, rushing forward, gripping her sword tightly.

And Lin Nuo had an exceptional ability to learn; having watched Liu Shuqin wield her sword, he swiftly grasped her rhythm and adapted accordingly.

Adapt quickly, or take it slow; who could complain about being fast?

He should have been the quickest.

Of course, his speed of action!

As Liu Shuqin’s Spirit Sword descended, a soul of a magic dragon surged forth, far fiercer than any previous sword strikes.

Turns out, one could only unleash potential when following their master.

Lin Nuo intentionally slowed his pace, syncing with Liu Shuqin’s rhythm as they both struck.

His dragon soul surged out too, and this time, it was even more ferocious than before.

The plan was working.

“Good, just like that.”

Suddenly, Lin Nuo grasped Liu Shuqin’s hand. Like demonic partners, united against a common foe, bound together, their dual dragon souls intertwined as one, charging straight towards Master Cong.

Master Cong’s eyes turned bloodier, powerful energy continued to surge from his body, attempting to separate Lin Nuo and Liu Shuqin.

But this time, the dual dragons weren’t pushed back; against Master Cong’s energy assault, they pressed on toward him.

“Ah!!!”

Master Cong, like a puppet, let out a blood-curdling scream. Lin Nuo and Liu Shuqin’s synchronized sword strikes yielded unexpected results, completely overwhelming him.

Though Master Cong’s body sustained no damage, his soul had been shattered by the dual dragons.

A direct attack on the soul through the body; the dual dragon souls surged forth, unstoppable.

“This… ah!”

Zhang Yuanxu felt an excruciating pain in his chest. Having cast a spell, he was tied to Master Cong; as long as Master Cong was fine, his soul would remain intact.

But Master Cong’s soul had already been crushed by Lin Nuo and Liu Shuqin’s dual dragon souls, and naturally, his defenses fell as well.

“You… you guys! Haha! Even if I perish completely, I’ll…!”

Zhang Yuanxu intended to trigger a self-detonation of his soul, without any regard—after all, he couldn’t use whatever means he had left to trouble Lin Nuo.

But could he trigger a self-detonation so smoothly? Lin Nuo had seen this self-detonation technique countless times.

Of course, a detonating soul wasn’t something to swallow. Swallow a bomb? That’s just asking for death!

He encapsulated him, letting him explode.

Lin Nuo quickly ran to Zhang Yuanxu’s side, drew a circle around him, and immediately cast a spell, forming a barrier that enclosed Zhang Yuanxu.

Let it blow up in there.

“This…!”

Zhang Yuanxu realized there was no time left—it was about to explode.

Boom!

A massive noise erupted, shaking Hunyung Hall violently, teetering on the brink of collapse, while the vengeful spirits dared not act recklessly any longer; they paused for a moment.

“That old guy is completely done for.”

Lin Nuo thought, wondering if this could revive him with dirty earth, feeling the need to report it—this was just too disgusting.

Fortunately, there was none of that; Zhang Yuanxu was genuinely and completely gone, devoid of any soul.

Silence fell instantly.

But Lin Nuo couldn’t let his guard down; something still lay ahead.

That was the Crack of the Demon Realm.

This was the crux of the matter.

“Junior Martial Brother, moving on…”

“One more time, I believe our swords can shatter it.”

Lin Nuo pointed at the Crack of the Demon Realm and said to Liu Shuqin.
