after all.
Human beings have limits.
Only by not being a human being but becoming a ghost can one break through this limit and have a stronger body and strength.
"What a perfect swordsmanship, what a wonderful swordsmanship, but I feel sad because such an extreme swordsmanship is dying!"
Yiwozuo kept pumping his fists, fighting fiercely with Zhenshan, and said: "You are so young, you can continue to maintain such a peak, but how many years can you maintain it?"
"Thirty years? Forty years?"
"Become a ghost like me!"
"This way we can fight forever, and your perfect swordsmanship will not die! You are the one chosen by God to be able to practice such perfect swordsmanship, don't let it disappear like this!"
Along with the roars of the earth cracking, the fanatical voices of Yiwozuo continued to sound.
"Become... a ghost?"
Zhen Shi's eyes paused for a moment, and the previous scene of the cannibal covered in blood and ferocious cannibalism flashed through his mind.
She took a slight breath, held the sword in both hands, looked calmly, and said: "I will not become such a monster. Besides... I am not someone chosen by God. I am just a disciple chosen by the master."
Uh-huh!
As the words fell, she suddenly swung her sword, and the brilliant sword light tore through the earth.
Seeing that words could not move Zhen Yan, Yi Wo Zuo was slightly disappointed. Pieces of rune light spread out from his body and turned into a formation-like light curtain.
The technique unfolds—Destruction Kill·Luo Needle!
boom!
The two fought fiercely together again.
…
In an ancient house somewhere.
There was an oil lamp placed on the wooden floor of the corridor, its weak flame swaying in the wind, as if it would go out at any moment.
A man in a white robe was sitting in the corridor, looking at the night sky.
He is the current master of the Demon Slayer Corps—
Ubuyashiki Yoshiya!
"A powerful ghost suspected to be the Oni no Ue has appeared in a small town in the north... It must be one of the Ue Usu, but in the vicinity, the only Hashira who can get there is Kanae, and it is impossible to deal with it with just one Hashira. A devil of a man."
"Moreover, the Winded Ghost is fighting another person, and the battle is tense. Who is it that can confront a Winded Ghost head-on?"
Ubuyashiki Yoya murmured in a low voice, lowering his head in thought.
The Demon Slayer Corps has been fighting ghosts for hundreds of years. Although they don't have the same means as blood ghosts, they still have a lot of abilities to obtain intelligence, and they are spread all over the world.
Using this information, Yoya Shiki will assign different tasks to the members of the Demon Slayer Corps, allowing them to hunt down those man-eating evil spirits across the country.
He regards every member of the Demon Slayer Corps as his own child and will not let them die, so the tasks assigned are often ones that the members can handle.
If the opponent is Twelve Ghost Moon, then he will assign at least one pillar-level player to go there.
As for the winding ghost...
Although there was very little information, according to his calculations, at least three pillars must go together to have a certain chance of winning. One pillar alone would simply die in front of the winding ghost.
Under normal circumstances, after learning the information about the Winding Ghost and there were no more than three pillars nearby who could arrive in time, he would not make any response and would not let his team members die.
but.
This time the intelligence was different.
Although the ghost that appeared was a winding ghost, and the only person nearby who could arrive in time was Kanae the Style Butterfly, the other party seemed to be involved in a stalemate battle.
After learning this information, he was first surprised that there was someone who could fight the Demon Slayer head-on, and he was not a member of the Demon Slayer Corps, and then he was caught in a dilemma.
Because the person fighting the Demon Slayer was not a member of the Demon Slayer Corps and had no information, he was not sure what was going on with him.
If the opponent is a human who is determined to be the enemy of ghosts, then the situation is okay, but if the opponent is in the camp of ghosts, then if he lets Kanae pass, it is equivalent to letting the flower head die!
To know.
This situation is not uncommon!
Because every ghost, including Shangxian, was once human!
If the person fighting the Winding Ghost cannot withstand the temptation of immortal life and finally chooses to become a ghost, then their Demon Slayer Team will have to face another powerful enemy.
and.
Is there really anyone who can fight the ghost of the wind alone
“…”
Ubuyashiki Yaoya thought for a long time and finally made a decision and issued an order.
…
north.
In a small town somewhere.
In a relatively clean and tidy hotel, in a medium-sized room, various sundries were piled in the corner of the room.
In the center of the room, there were two beds neatly laid out, with a girl sleeping on each.
The two girls look similar, but one has long hair and the other has short hair. The girl with long hair is taller and has a more graceful figure, while the girl with short hair is much smaller and shrinks into a small ball.
They are... one of the current pillars of the Demon Slayer Corps, my sister, the flower pillar Butterfly Kanae!
And the future insect pillar, sister, butterfly ninja!
suddenly.
A faint light flashed across the room.
Kanae and Butterfly Ninja opened their eyes almost at the same time, suddenly woke up from their deep sleep, and immediately sat up.
The two of them looked in the direction of the window sill.
A black crow appeared on the windowsill, flapped its wings twice, and began to speak human words.
"Kanae, Kanae!"
"Forty miles to the north, a winding ghost appears and is fighting an unknown person. You need to go and investigate the situation. You are the only one on the nearby pillar. Don't fight with the opponent rashly!"
Hearing the instructions conveyed from the crow's mouth, Butterfly Kanae and her sister Butterfly Ninja were almost shocked. They looked at each other and saw the waves in each other's eyes.
The ghost of winding!
As the pillar of the Demon Slayer Corps, her status is second only to the head of the family, Ubuyashiki Yoshiya. In terms of strength, Butterfly Kanae, who has reached the top of the Demon Slayer Corps, is very aware of the power of the Uege no Oni!
Over the past hundreds of years, the Demon Slayer Squad and the Twelve Demon Slayers have fought countless times. I don’t know how many demons have been killed by the Demon Slayer Squad, and I don’t know how many pillars have fallen into the hands of the Twelve Demon Slayers. But so far, So far, no one has died!
The six winding ghosts seemed to be standing in front of Onibutsuji Muzan... the six towering giant peaks that are the most difficult to climb in the world!
"The ghost of winding..."
Butterfly Ren's eyes were tense, and after murmuring, he suddenly looked at Kanae next to him and said, "Sister! I'll go with you!"
Kanae calmed down her mind, and after thinking briefly, she said: "No, you stay here, the other party is a winded ghost, it is too dangerous for you."
"But… "
"Don't worry, the order this time is not to hunt the Winding Ghost, and there are not enough pillars nearby to act together, so it is just for me to go over and investigate the situation."
Butterfly Kanae's gentle tone stopped Butterfly Ninja's subsequent words.
Hearing Kanae's words, Butterfly couldn't help but clenched her fists.
Although her strength has become very strong, and she has mastered the full set of regular hits not long ago, she has not yet truly reached the pillar level.
She knew that in a situation like the Winding Ghost, if her strength was involved, not only would it not be of any help, but it might also drag Kanae down.
This is a fact both of them know.
But Kanae didn't say it directly. Even if she was about to face a dangerous existence like the Ghost of the Wind, she didn't say anything that would hit the butterfly ninja. This is Butterfly Kanae, in the eyes of the butterfly ninja... The gentlest sister in the world.
"Okay, I will be back at dawn at the latest."
Kanae put on the Demon Slayer uniform that was placed next to her, then smiled and touched the Butterfly Ninja's head, then jumped out from the window sill.
The Butterfly Ninja came to the window sill and watched Kanae's leaving figure from a distance.
"Please come back safely, sister."
There was nothing she could do but silently pray for Kanae in her heart.
Chapter 11 Kanae’s shock
boom! boom! boom!
On the outskirts of the town, bursts of explosions shook the earth. The residents of the town didn't know what happened. They all hid in their homes and shivered, not daring to go out to check the situation.
Zhen Shi also considered that fighting in a small town would be too easy to cause damage, so he deliberately suppressed Yi Wo Zao and moved the battlefield. After nearly two hours of fighting, the battlefield had been moved outside the town.
distance.
A graceful figure quickly approached the town.
It was Hanae who came to investigate the situation after receiving the order - Butterfly Kanae.
"What a terrifying ghost..."
Butterfly Kanae sensed the movement in front of her from a distance, her expression moved, her heart was filled with turmoil, and she murmured: "Is this the ghost of the winding string?"
Even though they were still thousands of meters apart, she could still clearly sense the full-scale terrifying ghost energy of the Yiwo constellation, which far exceeded any ghost she had ever seen.
even.
Even the lower-stringed ghost among the Twelve Ghost Moons that she had killed was far from being comparable to such a ghost energy. It was not on the same level at all!
Yiwo Zuo, who exploded with all his strength, was indeed terrifying.
Even before breaking through the boundaries of ghosts, Yiwozao was comparable to a world-class swordsman of Tongtou. This level was already the pinnacle of the world, and after breaking through the boundaries, even Tongtou could not defeat him.
In the world without Feng Ye's interference, the battle between Yi Wo Zuo and Yanzhu Purgatory Xing Julang lasted until dawn. It was entirely because Yi Wo Zuo kept letting go in order to enjoy the battle. Otherwise, if he had to compete with his life, it would not have started yet. There was no way the spotted Infernal Anjuro could last until dawn.
"it's wired."
While Kanae was shocked by the terrifying aura of Yi Wo Zuo, she was also surprised by another point.
With such huge fighting noise, she couldn't even feel the breath of another person!
If she was a breathing swordsman who could fight against such a terrifying winding ghost, she should be able to clearly feel the opponent's aura from this distance.
But she couldn't sense the unique fighting spirit of any breathing method at all. All she could sense was the sharpness filling the air.
The closer you get to the battlefield, the more sharp you can feel the air.
Uh-huh! Uh-huh!
Butterfly Kanae slowed down, gradually approached the battlefield, and finally stopped a few hundred meters away from the center of the battlefield, looking towards the center of the battlefield.
Just one glance made her, a pillar-level swordsman, feel heavy pressure.
"So strong..."
As a pillar-level swordsman, he has been immersed in the realm of Chang Zhong for many years, and his physique and strength have almost been improved to a level that is many times stronger than ordinary people.
But even so, she could only feel waves of strong oppression from the two figures fighting fiercely on the battlefield.
If she were to face either of the two, she would probably not be able to fight head-on. She would have to rely on her agility and speed to fight the opponent, and she probably wouldn't be able to delay it for long.
Kanae didn't wait long to observe.
She soon discovered something that shocked her even more, that is, the Shangxian Ghost, who was bursting with terrifying ghost energy, was actually suppressed at a disadvantage!
Yes!
The situation on the battlefield is extremely obvious. The ghost on the string is completely suppressed. Almost all attacks will be ruthlessly torn apart by Zhen Xiang's sword skills. Zhen Xiang is unable to cause any harm. Instead, Zhen Xiang's sword severely damages Yi Wo again and again. seat!
If it weren't for his almost immortal recovery ability, any injury would have completely determined the outcome of the battle.
The power of the winding ghost had already frightened her.
How powerful is the person who can suppress the ghost of winding!
