198 Night Is Coming

Time flies by.

In the blink of an eye, another month has passed.

During this month, the entire Demon Slayer team has been involved in a very tense and lively training atmosphere, so that the training ground is filled with a large number of people every day.

Li Ge acted as if nothing had happened, and continued to use the nine-pins as a sparring partner. He also used the nine-pins as a sparring partner, and had heated battles every day.

Under such circumstances, among the pillars, someone finally successfully opened the transparent world.

This person is Bei Ming Yu Xing Ming.

He opens the transparent world on the third day of this month.

As the ceiling and strongest member of the Demon Slayer Corps, Mingyu Xingming used practical actions to tell others that he was not in vain, which greatly stimulated the other pillars who had not successfully opened the transparent world.

As a result, the pillars opened up the transparent world one after another while redoubling their efforts and training.

On about the seventh day, Yin Hei Xiaobanei successfully opened the transparent world.

On about the tenth day, Tokidou Muichiro successfully opened the transparent world.

These two people, like Mingming Island Xingming, both successfully opened the pillar of the transparent world at the end of the original work. Now with Li Ge's guidance, these three people were the first to open the transparent world.

Of course, the other pillars are not to be outdone.

On about the thirteenth day, Immortal Kawa Saneya successfully opened the transparent world.

On about the sixteenth day, Tomioka Yoshiyuki successfully opened the transparent world.

About the twenty-second day, Purgatory Anjuro successfully opened the transparent world.

At this point, six of the nine pillars of the Demon Slayer Corps have entered the supreme realm, awakening all three-piece abilities.

Only Butterfly Ninja, Kanroji Mitsuri, and Utsuo Tengen were left. It seemed that they were not born with this material, and they never succeeded in opening the transparent world.

This made the three of them seem very depressed and discouraged. Even the Butterfly Ninja, who always had a smile on his face, could see a hint of gloom flashing in his eyes from time to time.

Kanroji Mitsuri also often looked tearful, which made a certain Snake Pillar stop watching. He began to secretly take her to start a small stove, personally give her more training, and teach her the principles of understanding the world step by step. .

Yu Zhuan Tianyuan was thinking about it all day long, sitting on the tree with his thick arms, eyes closed, not knowing what he was thinking.

Obviously, the successive successes of their colleagues made the remaining three people a little impatient.

Although Li Ge saw this situation, he could not do anything.

"I've said it before, world penetration is different from the other two abilities. It can't be turned on by just turning it on."

No matter how you say it, this is the end point of martial arts and swordsmanship. It is known as the realm of the highest realm. If it really doesn't work, then it doesn't work. There is no shortcut.

Yiwozuo has been pursuing this realm for hundreds of years but has not succeeded in entering it, which proves that it is really impossible to force it.

At least, from Li Ge's own point of view, it has reached this point, and the Butterfly Ninja and others still have not been able to successfully open the transparent world, so there is probably really little hope.

"They can only look at themselves."

Li Ge thought this silently.

During this period, Ubuyashiki Yaoya summoned Li Ge and asked Li Ge to meet with him.

When we met Uyashiki Yoshiya again, the situation of the leader of the Demon Slayer Corps had become quite bad.

He has been completely unable to get out of bed. Now he lies in bed all day long. It takes a lot of effort to even say a word. It seems that he is really in trouble.

I said so myself.

"I probably don't have much time left, so I'll try my best to say everything I need to say..."

When he said this, Uyashiki Yoshiya looked like he might die at any time.

Li Ge frowned, but there was nothing he could do.

He had already treated Ubuya Shiki Yōya.

[Dia Frater] is the highest level of healing magic. It can not only heal injuries, but also expel curses.

With this magic, at first, Li Ge thought he could cure Uyashiki Yaoya's illness.

Because the disease on Ubuya Shiki Yōya's body is a curse, a curse born of Onibatsuji Muzan.

Thousands of years ago during the Heian Era, Onibatsuji Mumei, who had not yet become a ghost, was actually a member of the Ubuyashiki family.

In other words, the Ubuyashiki family and Muzan Kibutsuji are related by blood.

Thousands of years ago, after Onibatsuji Muzan became a ghost, the Ubuyashiki family seemed to be collectively cursed. No matter who they were, the children they gave birth to would become frail and sick and die soon after.

Especially boys, the probability of dying in infancy is extremely high, almost severing the bloodline of the Ubuyashiki family.

Later, generations of the Ubuyashiki clan married girls from priest families, in this way to delay the effects of the curse and extend the lives of their descendants.

But even so, no one in the Ubuyashiki family can successfully live to the age of 30.

Therefore, all members of the Ubuyashiki family were weak and sick, and all died young, without exception.

Ubuyashiki Yoya is only 23 years old this year, but he is already seriously ill and will die from this serious illness in the near future.

Li Ge originally thought that with the effect of [Dia Frater] that could expel the curse, he should be able to remove the curse from Ubuyashiki Yōya.

But he failed.

This curse is not imposed on an individual, but on the entire family's bloodline.

In other words, if Li Ge wants to get rid of this curse, the curse of the entire Ubuyashiki family must be removed at once.

But Muzan Kibutsuji was also a member of the Ubuyashiki family, and was even the source of the curse.

In his absence, even if Li Ge removes other people's curses, the power of this curse will be like gangrene attached to the bones, regenerating from the blood of the Ubuyashiki family again.

As a result, the curse on Uyashiki Yōya could not be removed at all. His body became weaker and weaker, and he became more and more emaciated.

This time, Ubuyashiki Yaoya called Li Ge with the idea of ​​leaving his last words.

He first told Li Ge some information.

"Recently, there have been frequent incidents of human disappearances in cities and towns everywhere..."

Most of the missing persons are violent perpetrators or armed fighters, and some are even felons who have committed serious crimes and are about to be executed.

Without exception, they all disappeared suddenly without any warning. Some disappeared at home, and some did not come back after leaving the house, causing quite a disturbance in the society.

According to the intelligence network of the Demon Slayer Squad, most of these people had brief contact with ghosts before disappearing.

At first, the Demon Slayers thought they were all eaten by ghosts, but then they realized something was wrong.

After all, these people all have a common characteristic, that is, they are either armed or have a certain degree of violent tendencies.

This attracted great attention from the Demon Slayer Corps, and eventually the information was passed to Uyashiki Yōya.

"Also, not long ago, everyone in a small town to the east disappeared. Thousands of people, men, women, old and young, all disappeared without a trace overnight..."

Ubuyashiki Yaoya told Rige such information again, which made Rige frown.

"Are so many people missing?"

This is definitely not a good thing.

You must know that humans are a precious resource to ghosts in every aspect.

They can be used as food to supplement ghosts' nutrition and enhance their strength.

They can also become ghosts. As long as Ghost Dance Tsuji Muzan gives them blood, they can immediately break away from their human identity and join the ghost camp.

Now, there are a large number of human beings missing collectively. If there is no ghost handiwork in this, Li Ge will never believe it.

Regardless of whether they become the food of ghosts, used by ghosts to increase their strength, or used as combat power to transform into new ghosts, for the Demon Slayer Team, it is an extremely bad thing.

That's what Ubuyashiki Yōya said.

"I can feel that Kibutsuji Mumei's power is rapidly increasing..."

It is precisely because of this that Ubuyashiki Yaoya's physical condition becomes worse and worse.

This is a sign that the curse in the bloodline is getting stronger.

The strengthening of the curse means that Tsuji Muzan, the source of the curse, is becoming stronger and stronger.

"You have to be careful..."

Ubuya Shiki Yoya was lying on the bed with a towel covering his face, and his almost rotten face could not be seen clearly.

"We are preparing for war, and the ghosts are also preparing for war..."

"The decisive battle is coming, and the battle that will determine the future between humans and ghosts is getting closer..."

"And you are the key to this decisive battle..."

As if squeezing out the last of his strength, Ubuyashiki Yaoya smiled and left his last words to Rige.

"I don't know if I can wait until that day. If not, the Demon Slayer Squad and everything will be left to you..."

After leaving such words, Ubuyashiki Yoshiya lost consciousness.

"Yaoya-sama!"

Ubuyashiki Yōya's wife immediately rushed in with her daughter.

Li Ge also stepped forward, glanced at Uyashiki Yoshiya, and found that he only lost consciousness and did not die directly.

But his breath was like a candle in the wind, very, very weak and could be extinguished at any time.

Even after Li Ge opened the transparent world, he took a look at the condition inside Ubuyashiki Yoya's body, and what he saw was an extremely horrific scene.

"Are we running out of time...?"

Li Ge clearly realized this and silently exited the room while looking at the nervous people rushing around to give birth to Yashiki Yaoya.

On this day, it was rare that the Demon Slayer Pillars did not show up at the training ground. They all came here and stayed with Uyashiki Yōya for a day, and did not leave until the next day.

Li Ge was sitting in the hall of his home, looking out through the courtyard and staring at the bright moon in the night sky.

The bright moon hung high in the sky, but at some point, it seemed to be stained with blood.

…………

At the same time, in the castle with an upside-down space and a strange layout, the ghost king, covered in blood, quietly appeared.

He was also looking at the night sky and the bright moon, and the blood stains remaining on the corners of his mouth were so obvious.

"about there……"

The Ghost King showed a cruel smile.

"It's time to fulfill this long-cherished wish that has lasted for thousands of years."
