Chapter 1307: God of War

Chapter 1307: God of War

Looking into Su Kexin’s soulful eyes, Lin Nuo rubbed his forehead.

They say a love-struck brain shouldn’t come out to fight BOSSes. I only meant to get a little involved; if you can’t hold on, I’m bound for the heavens.

Now that the atmosphere was set, I hoped to boost your spirit like an energy drink.

The two pushed against the odds, charging through a meteor shower. Su Kexin was a melee god of war but fell short at long range. Lin Nuo recalled that legendary strike from years past, a force unable to be withstood.

I hope you can land a blow like that on Aike, rather than squabble in my lair.

Why call it a lair squabble? Back then, I didn’t even have a lair; I was just foolish.

Lin Nuo absorbed fragments using the Dark Swirl, bouncing them back to minimize consumption. Unfortunately, the fragments were overflowing, and he felt like he might explode.

Su Kexin erupted with fury, charging through the onslaught, her body riddled with injuries, blood already staining her pale pink battle skirt.

Yet her abilities only grew stronger with each setback, her wounds igniting an inexhaustible potential.

Lin Nuo still had no idea where Su Kexin’s limits lay or whether she would perish.

Finally, she advanced through the falling meteor shower, right before Aike.

Kill!

With indomitable will, Su Kexin swung her Spirit Sword, aiming for Aike. To her dismay, a tough turtle shell emerged around Aike.

Bang!

It was the Turtle Beast’s defense, augmented by Aike’s formidable Demon Soul Power, immensely tough.

“Heh, you can’t break through.”

Aike sneered coldly, the dual souls roaring, unleashing a powerful force that repelled them.

“Ah!”

Su Kexin fell from the sky in pain, and Lin Nuo rushed to catch her.

This worthless thing is impossible to break!

“Senior Martial Brother, I can do this!”

Su Kexin, unwilling to surrender, stood up again after the setback, ready to kill.

Lin Nuo couldn’t stop her; she charged at Aike once more, swinging fiercely.

Still no luck; another powerful force sent her bouncing back, more wounds exploding on her body.

But her resolve only grew more tenacious; one word—unyielding—even after countless setbacks, she pressed forward.

“A strong will, but so what? It’s just recklessness.”

Aike looked down on her. No matter how strong she seemed, it wouldn’t change the situation. It was merely a bit of last dignity.

“Mm? Lin Nuo?”

Aike noticed Lin Nuo unleashing a ki blast from the side, reflexively turning to block it.

“I worried for nothing. This level of attack is truly insignificant. I overestimated you.”

The turtle shell had three layers, and Lin Nuo hadn’t even scratched the first. He was too cautious, expecting some new trick from Lin Nuo.

Lin Nuo fired off multiple ki blasts, but the result was the same—completely useless against the outermost layer of the turtle shell.

Seizing the moment, Su Kexin swung her sword again. This strike was heavier than all the previous ones, cracking a small portion of the turtle shell’s outer layer.

“This woman…”

Aike realized something was amiss. Su Kexin had sustained multiple injuries but showed no signs of weakness; instead, she was getting stronger.

“Has she… gone mad?”

Aike quickly pushed Su Kexin away, having fully adapted to the power of the Four Beasts’ souls. It was time to finish this.

He had merely warmed up, becoming accustomed to his new powers. Now, it was time to conclude matters.

“This threat must be eliminated.”

Aike extended his right hand, the power of the four souls coalescing into a long, sharp scythe.

“Die.”

Aike swung the scythe down, striking Su Kexin.

“Ah!!!”

Su Kexin cried out in pain, blood spewing from her mouth as her Spirit Sword slipped from her grasp, collapsing into a pool of blood.

“!!”

Lin Nuo was astonished—was she really going to die?

He rushed to Su Kexin’s side. Her injuries were severe; only a faint breath remained, as if it would cease at any moment.

Lin Nuo had never seen Su Kexin in such dire condition. While he had crippled her in the past life, she had not been on the brink of death.

Now, Su Kexin had actively unleashed her power before facing Aike; if she couldn’t hold on, she might truly be finished.

In the mortal realm, you are a protagonist; here, it’s not guaranteed.

“Lin Nuo, this farce should come to an end.”

Aike’s scythe was now locked on Lin Nuo. Though quick, Lin Nuo felt trapped in a cage; no matter how fast he moved, he would eventually run out of stamina.

“End? ”

Countless people had told him that before, but in the end, it never came to pass. The only ending he wanted to convey was something similar to Su Kexin.

Lin Nuo picked up Su Kexin, his expression calm. Having died once, death held no fear for him.

He retrieved Su Kexin’s sword, now soaked in blood, just like its master.

Aike’s sharp scythe came down again, and if it fell, Su Kexin would be completely cleaved.

Bang!

The scythe descended swiftly, but Lin Nuo nonetheless mustered the last of his strength to dodge.

“Desperate struggle.”

Aike swung repeatedly, fast as lightning. With the slightest misstep, Lin Nuo would be torn apart.

His stamina was nearly depleted, and his agility waned. After several rounds of evasion, he could not escape the next strike.

Bang!

Just as he was about to be hit, Su Kexin’s sword shot out unexpectedly to block the scythe.

“What?”

Aike was shocked; this sword had actually managed to withstand his blow without breaking.

Lin Nuo: “Hmm?”

Lin Nuo felt something was wrong. An unknown force began to swirl around the barely conscious Su Kexin.

He hurriedly released her; if that power burst forth, he might evaporate on the spot.

Soon, the Phoenix Sword flew back into Su Kexin’s hands, and she stood up again.

But her eyes had lost their color, becoming cold and merciless.

“Not dead? Heh, since that’s the case, then…”

Aike was about to swing his scythe again at Su Kexin, only to find her bracing for his strike head-on.

Blood splattered once more, but there was no sign of pain on Su Kexin’s face.

Bang!

Su Kexin swung fiercely, striking the turtle shell, yet failed to break through.

“Useless.”

The force from the turtle shell tried to shove Su Kexin back, but she retreated only to charge forward once more.

Her strikes were rapid, entirely unlike what one would expect from someone on the verge of death.

“This woman, how…”

A chill ran down Aike’s spine. The terror Su Kexin embodied was beyond his expectations.

Bang!

Finally, Su Kexin shattered the outer shell.

Aike quickly retreated, but Su Kexin struck again, this time landing a blow on him.

“Damn woman!”

Aike took a hit, blood bursting forth, but he quickly self-healed.

Yet Su Kexin charged again—another strike. Aike healed again swiftly, but then came another blow, enduring the pain time and again.

“So what if this happens? You can’t kill me.”

Aike remained proud of his self-healing abilities but failed to notice Lin Nuo had stealthily approached, placing the final magic fu on his scythe, a top-tier talisman.

“What?”

Aike reacted just in time, but Lin Nuo had already slipped away.

The final Punishment of the Sinful Beast.
