Outside Hyogo Prefecture, Yasui was lying in the grass, looking at the stars with a somewhat hollow expression.
He was about to die, but he was unwilling to do so.
Why is it that some people are born rich, while I can only live at the bottom of society?
Let others beat, scold and drive you!
This time, he just wanted to use a little money to pay off his gambling debts. It was just a little amount, which for that guy was just the amount he could easily give to a beggar if he was in a good mood.
But his legs were broken, beaten like this, and thrown into the wilderness!
"Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!"
His strength and stamina were slowly draining away. He closed his eyes and made a final curse to the wealthy businessman who asked him to beat him like this.
If there is still a chance, there is a chance...
puff--
At this moment, he suddenly felt as if his cheek had been cut open by something. The tingling sensations made his consciousness clear, and he felt that the power returned to his body, and it was stronger, stronger!
He opened his eyes in a daze, and his eyes were suddenly as red as bloodthirsty, and his expression was ferocious as if he wanted to bite people. At the same time, the injuries on his body healed quickly.
Half a minute later, he calmed down, jumped up with ecstasy, then half-knelt, and said to the figure standing next to him: "Thank you, sir!"
Ji Xing observed the young man who had received his blood, and asked him with a smile: "What do you want to do most now? Tell the truth."
The young man was stunned and said ferociously: "Well, eat up the whole family of the guy who almost killed me, and then follow you!"
Ji Xing nodded: "Awesome."
"...Uh-huh!
"
Screaming in confusion, the young man who had just turned into a ghost turned into ashes and disappeared in despair.
"Still not working?"
After testing the effect of the human-transforming drug, Ji Xing found several dying people to test the effect of his blood, but the results were not satisfactory.
Even if he overcomes the weakness of sunlight and can control his desire to eat people, the ghost he bleeds cannot do so unless he maintains control over the ghost at all times.
But too much may even affect him himself.
"Find two more people with good natures for testing? Forget it, let it happen." Ji Xing originally didn't want to create any ghost subordinates, he just gave it a try.
And now, there are more important things.
The performance of Butterfly Ninja's 'poisonous killing' of the six Shangxian siblings seemed to excite Wu Mei, and the decisive battle seemed to be coming earlier and more unexpectedly than he expected.
After looking into the distance, Ji Xing turned and walked towards a nearby town.
In the small town, Tanjiro, who had just finished his ghost hunting mission, was lying on the bed to rest. Nezuko, who could not sleep, was playing with his hair in boredom, making Tanjiro unable to sleep either.
"Nezuko, most people who become ghosts seem to be unwilling to do so. They are all pitiful..."
Nezuko nodded.
"Fortunately, the two of us were lucky enough to meet Mr. Tomioka, Mr. Kamishi, Mr. Nintaki, and Mr. Tamashi... Oh, it hurts!"
"Nezuko?!"
Nezuko held a piece of Tanjiro's hair with an innocent expression and pointed in the direction outside. Tanjiro sniffed lightly, and soon changed to an expression of surprise: "Is it Mr. Kamishi?"
He opened the door, saw Ji Xing's figure, and greeted happily: "How did Mr. Shangxi know that Nezuko and I were here?"
Nezuko also ran over happily, tiptoed to touch Ji Xing's head, but Ji Xing pushed him down with a backhand, and replied: "Feeling."
"Feel?"
Nezuko, who hadn't touched his head, whined in dissatisfaction. Suddenly her eyes moved, she stared at Ji Xing, and suddenly reached out and tore it apart.
Stab - Ji Xing's shirt was torn open and his chest was exposed. Tanjiro was shocked and scolded: "What are you doing, Nezuko?!"
"Hmm--" Nezuko pointed.
"...Huh?" Tanjiro was startled, and looked at Ji Xing's chest, and saw seven round holes there, with transparent front and back, forming a circle.
Tanjiro, who wiped Ji Xing's body while he was sleeping, was surprised: "What about the seven...seven balls that are discharged and seem to be alive?"
Ji Xing smiled: "I am.
"
Zila——
His figure suddenly turned into lightning, condensed into a blue charged thunderball, and got into Tanjiro's sleeve while he screamed.
"The night is not very quiet tonight, you two should be careful, I will protect you."
Tanjiro was stunned, then moved away Nezuko's hand that was pulling on his sleeve to find the ball, and hesitantly said: "Is this... Mr. Uishi's vampire technique? It's so powerful... but does it mean that the night is not peaceful?"
His nose suddenly sniffed heavily, and he frowned and looked at the night sky. Under the moonlight, he saw an eyeball flying in the distance.
And the eyeball also has ‘three’ written on it!
"Is this... a ghost?"
With his movements faster than his brain, Tanjiro drew out his Nichirin sword and slashed at him.
'Breath of the sun? Form of one? Round dance!'
Buzz--
The flames directly incinerated the eyeballs into ashes, but at the last moment, the eyeballs seemed to see the faces of Tanjiro and Nezuko.
"Vampire magic for detection?"
"Don't be nervous."
A voice came from Tanjiro's sleeve: "The ghost itself is far away and may not pay attention to you two. At most, it will only throw in a few ghosts of ordinary strength. Prepare to fight, Tanjiro."
…
"That earring...that kind of swordsmanship..."
In the Infinite City, one of the countless eyeball clones of Naru-san saw what had happened just now. Muzan's eyes sank slightly as he recalled some not-so-pleasant memories.
There is actually a swordsman in the Demon Slayer Squad who uses the Breath of the Sun? I really underestimated those guys before.
When he conducted indiscriminate exploration through Naruko's ability, he discovered that the Demon Slayers had unknowingly accumulated considerable power. Even if he was besieged, he would be in trouble.
It’s definitely time to clean up a batch!
No, it’s better to eliminate the root cause!
But right now, he really didn't have time to pay attention to Tanjiro, a guy like Tanjiro who had obviously just become a swordsman of the Demon Slayer Corps, so he only asked Narume to use her ability to throw two nearby ghosts who mastered the vampire technique.
The other demon slayer swordsmen found by Narume's eyeball clones were basically treated like ordinary demons, and they didn't care whether they won or lost.
"Have you not found the Demon Slayer Headquarters yet?"
This is his focus.
Naruto lowered her head and said nervously: "Soon, I will find it, Master Wuhan!"
Muzan was impatient and waited with his eyes closed. At the same time, he focused his attention on the Twelve Ghost Moons who were thrown next to the pillar-level swordsmen one by one.
…
Near Kyoto, train station.
Purgatory Anjuro held the handle of the knife in his hand and cast his bright eyes on the figure standing on the roof of the train, staring at the other person's penis.
There are words inside: ‘Wind the string’, ‘Shake!
"The new... one of the top stringers?"
He said solemnly: "This is really a difficult enemy! Even Shangxi can only die with one of his predecessor's upper strings, but why don't I feel too strong ghost energy in you?"
Mo Meng laughed: "It's because you are too weak, too weak, too weak! Swordsman!"
"Really?" Purgatory Anjuro drew his knife: "That's probably it. My talent is limited. Even now, I'm far inferior to Kamishi!"
Giyu Tomioka looked up at the white-haired boy fishing from a distant mountain approaching quickly with spider silk, and felt a strong sense of danger.
"Fifth of the lower string? At your level, only the fifth of the lower string?" He was a little confused.
Lei Danmo replied: "Don't disturb my reunion with my family, ghost hunter."
…
In the other two wilderness areas, Ganluji Mili and Yinhei Xiaobanai encountered the fourth half-tengu of the upper string and the fifth jade pot of the upper string respectively!
The battle is also about to break out.
Demon Slayer Headquarters.
Ubuyashiki Yōya sat quietly in the house, guarded by rock pillars and wind pillars.
Crows flew here and there, bringing them pieces of information. Fengzhu Immortal Kawan Saneya said in a low voice: "My lord, this place will be discovered by Wuhan at any time. Please move first."
Mingyu Xingming clasped his hands together and said, "Amitabha, my lord, are there any more arrangements? The swordsmen outside our headquarters do need the attention of the pillars, but your safety also needs to be guaranteed. Just the two of us cannot cope with the situation.
miserable."
Ubuyashiki Yōya smiled and said: "I'm sorry for keeping it secret from you, Xingmei, Saneya. We do have one of the strongest reinforcements, but we never showed up because we were worried that Muzan would notice."
Hmm? Who is the strongest reinforcement?
If Mingyu Xingmei was aware, he used the Transparent World to look at Ubuya Shiki Yaoya, and quickly clasped his hands together in wonder: "Amitabha."
At the same time, Immortal Sekawa Saneya turned his head to look outside, shot out, and returned with a sullen face half a minute later: "My lord, the location of the Demon Slayer Squad has been discovered!"
