Chapter 115 Tanjiro Kyoto
Becoming the Demon Slayer Thunder Pillar, Ji Xing is not only for the starlight, but also to have the authority to read the numerous historical materials of the Demon Slayer Corps.
This book records many experiences of the Demon Slayer Swordsman when hunting ghosts, which allowed him to gradually deepen his understanding of ghosts and gradually make bold conjectures.
“All the mysteries of the ghost-destroying world lie in the balance between spiritual and physical energy. This is true for the stripes and the transparent world, and it is also true for humans and ghosts.
Mainly based on body energy, it is a human being.
If it is dominated by spiritual energy, then it is a ghost? "
The more you search, the more certain you become.
Time flies, the special training for the pillars has been going on for two months. Through very arduous strength and physical training, the pillars have improved. Most of them have found the feeling of turning on the markings, but among them, only Yanzhu is 100% sure to turn on the markings. .
As for the transparency of the world, it is still early.
At the same time, Ji Xing also finished reading the information.
…
While the Demon Slayer Pillars are undergoing arduous training, Kamado Tanjiro is also making arduous efforts to become a swordsman.
Eight months have passed since the whole family was killed by ghosts and the only sister Nezuko turned into a ghost. Under the recommendation of Suihuashi Tomioka Giyu, he has been practicing at the former Suishuho Hinataki Sakonji for almost eight months.
Zhawu Mountain, the mountain is as its name suggests.
The mountain is covered with miasma, which will make it difficult to breathe if you stay there for a long time, and there are many traps set up by Nintaki Sakonji, which is very dangerous. Kamado Tanjiro has to go back and forth here several times every day.
The traps change every day, but after the initial embarrassment, Kamado Tanjiro, who is extremely talented and has an innate sense of smell, has been able to avoid most of the traps with ease.
Not as embarrassed as before.
On this day, he was training to climb the mountain as usual. Just when he was about to reach the top of the mountain, his nose suddenly moved and he stopped in surprise.
“Is there someone? An unfamiliar smell.”
How could there be anyone in such a dangerous mountain?
Looking through the fog, he saw a blurry figure whose face could not be seen clearly, but he could confirm that the person had blond hair and a knife on his waist. He was also agile and could easily avoid traps and shuttles. Extremely fast.
‘A swordsman from the Demon Slayer Squad? ’ Kamado Tanjiro murmured to himself, “Hello? Be careful, there are many traps on this mountain!”
The swordsman on the opposite side turned to look at him, nodded slightly as a greeting, and continued down the mountain.
Kamado Tanjiro smiled and secretly said that he is a formal swordsman, but he is better than me anyway. What should I worry about? I am going to continue his training.
The next moment, his expression stiffened again.
'etc? That direction...'
not good!
He is a swordsman! Nezuko is a ghost!
He looked frightened, but when he turned around, the swordsman was no longer there. He sniffed hard and chased wildly in the direction of the blond swordsman.
“Stop! Please stop!”
Ji Xing smiled and started running. He even made a clang sound and drew the sun blade in his hand.
“No! Don’t! There’s no ghost over there!”
The body's potential was instantly stimulated. The handsome young man with a scar on his left forehead and wearing a sun disk earring was chased wildly and climbed the mountain at a speed that was far faster than before, but... he couldn't catch up.
He bit Ji Xing's tail all the way, but he was still only thirty or forty meters away. What made his heart gradually sink was that the direction in which the blond swordsman was running in front of him was the same as the home of his master, Nezuko Sakonji, and where Nezuko was sleeping. The place is exactly the same!
That was really his goal!
How did he know about Nezuko?
Before he had time to think, he shouted: "Please stop! No! No! That's my sister! That's not a ghost!"
“Stop! Please stop!”
Ignoring the consumption of physical energy, Tanjiro shouted hoarsely, smashing traps everywhere, all the way back to the home of Nintaki Sakonji.
But what made him despair was that Rintaki Sakonji seemed not at home, and the blond swordsman had already broken in first, brandishing the Nichirin Sword!
“No! Please!”
The fantasy scene of Nezuko being beheaded magnified in front of his eyes, and tears burst into Kamado Tanjiro's eyes - No, no, I have to stop him!
Breath of water...it's too late!
There is a way, I must have a way!
Suddenly, the image of his father dancing during the sacrifice was magnified in front of his eyes, and Kamado Tanjiro brandished his sword.
‘The God of Fire Kagura Dance·One Type·Wound Dance! ’
His body seemed to be ignited with flames. He burst out with astonishing speed in an instant, and rushed into the house in a flash, slashing a blazing arc of flames on his sword!
Ji Xing Heng Dao.
—
With the crisp collision sound, the rushing flames were easily extinguished. Tanjiro's pupils dilated and he wanted to continue attacking, but he felt his body go weak.
No, no strength?
How did I just... do it?
no! Nezuko!
With his knees on the ground, Tanjiro jumped up like a fish and hit Ji Xing with his forehead!
Ji Xing punched with his left hand, Duang!
Tanjiro's eyes turned white and he fell to the ground. Ji Xing shook his wrist, looked at Tanjiro's forehead, which was completely unscathed, and said with a smile: "What kind of material is this head made of?"
“Just now...what was that?” Konji Konji, a man wearing a Tengu mask, appeared at the door at some unknown time and asked, “That sword from Tanjiro.”
Hintagisa's body was shaken for the last time.
“Legendary…”
…
Half an hour later. Tanjiro Kamado, who was lying on the bed, suddenly woke up and shouted in horror: "Nezuko!"
He struggled to hold himself up and looked around. His expression quickly became confused, and he looked a little confused.
Nezuko, who began to fall asleep after turning into a ghost, was lying on the bed next to her. Her long black hair was spread out and she was biting a bamboo tube. She was sleeping sweetly and cutely.
“Huh...are you okay? Is it a dream?”
Tanjiro took a long breath and moved his arms that were still sore and weak, feeling a little confused.
Until he saw Naitaki Sakonji and Ji Xing standing side by side after opening the door.
"woke up?"
“You...this, what on earth is this...”
Ji Xing smiled and said, "I'm sorry, did you scare me before? I'm just trying to push your potential. I have no ill intentions towards your sister."
"Forcing my potential?" Tanjiro opened his mouth blankly, and after realizing it, he was not angry, but grateful: "Thank you, thank you for being tolerant of Nezuko who turned into a ghost! She will never eat people!"
This is a young man with extremely upright views. He knows that it is the duty of a ghost hunter to kill ghosts, even if that ghost is his biological sister.
Hintagaki Sakonji introduced: "This is Lord Lei Zhu of the Demon Slayer Squad, and I'm going to Xi Shiya Kong."
“Thunder...pillar?”
“Pillar is a title that can only be obtained by the swordsman with the strongest breath method. Thunder Pillar means that he is the strongest swordsman of Thunder Breath, and he is also one of the strongest in the entire Demon Slayer Squad.”
"The strongest?" Tanjiro exclaimed, recalling the desperate blow he made before he fell into coma, and Ji Xing's casual blow. He was indeed so strong...
Hey, Kagura Dance, the God of Fire?
"Remember?" Ji Xing said: "More than four hundred years ago, the strongest swordsman of the Demon Slayer Corps, Enichi Ji, created the ancestral breathing method, Breath of the Sun.
All subsequent breathing methods are derived from the breathing of the sun.
Later, due to some reasons, this breathing method was not passed down in the Demon Slayer Squad. According to the records, Enichi Tsukuni seemed to have taught it to a family with Nichirin earrings. "
Tanjiro touched the earrings: "The fire **** Kagura my father danced...is that...breath of the sun?"
Does our family still have such a heritage?
"It looks like this." Ji Xing said: "I learned about your brothers and sisters from Tomioka Yoshiyuki, so I came here specially, and it was not in vain."
"I..." Tanjiro was at a loss and said: "If the Demon Slayer Corps needs Kagura, the God of Fire..."
"No, that is not a skill that ordinary people can master. I just want to remind you that you have the strongest breath of the sun and can become a very strong swordsman. You must work harder. I hope to see you at the Demon Slayer Headquarters soon. .You are still too weak now and are not as useful as your sister."
Tanjiro was startled: "Nezuko?"
Ji Xing said: "After turning into a ghost, she stopped eating people, got rid of the control of the ghost king, and made up for the loss through sleeping. There has never been such a precedent. She has strong research value."
“…Research?!” Tanjiro said nervously.
"Don't be nervous, I just need a tube of blood from her. I know a very good doctor and I want to see her to test what is different about your sister." Ji Xing said.
"That's it..." Tanjiro murmured softly, and soon said excitedly: "Well... Lord Lei Zhu, can you please ask the doctor if there is a way to turn Nezuko back into a human?"
“Well, I’ll ask.”
…
Ji Xing, who met Tanjiro and collected blood from Nezuko, went straight to Kyoto.
He is going to find Dr. Tamashi, who has been a ghost for more than 500 years and has escaped Mukai's control, to test the condition of Nezuko's blood.
It was already night when we arrived.
However, this center and most prosperous city in Japan is always brightly lit, with countless pedestrians on the street and it is very lively.
The place is big and there are many ghosts.
Ji Xing casually cleaned up two of them.
At the same time, in a certain neighborhood, the pale-skinned young man suddenly stopped. The human wife next to him asked him doubtfully: "What's wrong? Yue Yan."
"It's nothing, I suddenly feel a little uncomfortable in my stomach. Let's go home." The young man smiled gently.
After returning home, he lay on the bed to rest under the care of his wife. There was only one person left in the room. He suddenly sat up and looked at the window.
A figure jumped in.
He has short pink hair, blue tattoos all over his body, and his golden pupils have the words ‘Shangxian’ and ‘Shangsan’ written on them respectively, which is the three-year-old nest of Shangxian!
His expression was a little nervous. He knelt down on one knee respectfully and called out: "Master Wuhan!"
Wukai asked softly: "Yiwozuo, do you know why I asked you to come here?"
“…Yes!” Yiwozuo said, “Please give me a little more time, Lord Wuhan!”
"Give you a little more time?" Wu Kai laughed lowly: "It's been two months, and you still haven't found Shangxi Shiye Kong."
“But he has almost found me!”
Yiwozuo's pupils shrank suddenly, and an extreme pain exploded in his body. He didn't dare to cry out, twisted and knelt on the ground, sweat dripping.
More than ten minutes later, he limped away from Wuhan's home with a serious look in his eyes - Did that guy actually come to Kyoto on his own initiative? !
In the courtyard, a woman's concerned voice came: "Yueyan? Are you okay? I seem to hear a sound in your room?"
“It’s okay, it’s just a mouse.”
Two chapters, 6,000+, don’t rush, don’t rush, I’m still trying my best to write, the preliminary preparation and introduction of Demon Slayer World are almost done, the plot will take off soon...
In addition, there seemed to be a bug yesterday. It was the book review section that reminded Feng Zhu that Butterfly Kanahui was not dead at that time. I made a mistake in the timeline of Feng Zhu’s promotion mission. Please forgive me.
