Chapter 2312: Spiritual Communication
The sun gives people an infinite sense of security. The members of the Demon Slayer Corps have just recovered from what happened last night. The mage is heading towards the rising sun, leaving the scene, leaving behind a long shadow and a lonely back.
The ghost hunters haven't figured out what happened yet. They don't know that Duran has successfully inspired Upper String 3's ambition, letting him know that there is no way out if he doesn't become stronger. He has to be stronger than the Demon Ancestor. How to do it? Obviously stealing the prescription is the only way, because the Demon Ancestor will no longer continue to improve their strength, and it is not realistic to improve their strength by eating people. They have already eaten many people, and the effect of eating people is minimal.
"We have to become stronger too." The Flame Pillar suddenly said. He found that his strength could not be compared with the mage. The mage completely suppressed the ghosts and did not give them any chance at all. He protected all the passengers. This kind of strength is his goal. Only with this kind of power can he better protect humans.
The other three thought so too. The ghosts they encountered this time were very powerful and beyond their ability. They could not expect the enemy's mercy, but could only improve their own abilities.
Overnight, everyone began to look for ways to become stronger.
Duran went to find Upper String One according to the original plan. He was also the strongest of the Twelve Demon Moons and the brother of Tsugakuin Yoriichi. When he became a demon, he was severely slapped in the face by Tsugakuin Yoriichi. It has been almost three hundred years now. The Warring States period has ended. He has experienced the Edo period, the Meiji period, and has come to the Taisho period. He is a lonely swordsman without even an opponent. He always thinks alone and seeks the ultimate in swordsmanship.
Unfortunately, after thinking for three hundred years, he still hasn't reached the upper limit of Tsugakuin Yoriichi. The more he thinks about it, the more he feels that his brother is too incredible. Three hundred years have allowed Upper String One's breathing, swordsmanship, and blood demon arts to merge, but this level still can't satisfy him, because he has seen with his own eyes how his brother is cheating. Compared with the cheating, his efforts are really not worth mentioning.
"You have been following your brother's footsteps. The realm you have reached is what your brother has already reached three hundred years ago." Duran came and opened the scar of the strongest upper string as soon as he opened his mouth, letting him know that three hundred years is just for his brother to barely keep up with his brother's footsteps.
Three hundred years, this is the gap between mortals and geniuses.
Seeing the wizard suddenly appear, Upper String One was not surprised, because he knew that the wizard was very mysterious and definitely not a human. He suspected that the wizard was either a ghost or a demon. Since there are ghosts in this world, there may also be demons. Anyway, it is not a normal person, because normal people cannot live from the Warring States Period to the present.
Duran's words were very hurtful, but he could not refute them, because Upper String One knew the gap between himself and his brother better than anyone else. When he was a human, he could not beat his brother. After he became a ghost, he still could not beat his brother. He still could not understand that unreasonable strength.
"Do you want to know where you and your brother are different?"
Upper String One and Three looked at Duran, and they felt like Cthulhu. After he became a ghost, he had four more eyes. Now his face was full of eyes, which was very scary.
"Although you didn't say anything, I know you definitely want to know. It's talent. Your brother is a genius picked from thousands of people. There is no one before and no one after him. So no matter how hard you try, you can't compare with him."
"He is just a mortal. His body has turned to dust, but I am still standing here and will continue to live in the future. There is no end to my swordsmanship. Sooner or later, I will surpass him." Upper String One said coldly.
"Look at your achievements. Why don't you compare with a newborn baby? If you want to compare, you have to compare on the same starting line. With your brother's talent, if he becomes a ghost and lives to this day, he can become a sword god in three hundred years. I know that he has actually realized that supreme realm, but he knows it but can't do it because of his physical limit. If he becomes a ghost, then he has broken the limit of his body and is a real sword god. You can't do it at all."
Duran's contempt is blatant, and he is also provoking and angering the other party. Because Duran likes to see his opponent angry but can't do anything about him.
Upper String One was indeed angry and wanted to take action, but he had lived for three hundred years and knew that the sudden appearance of the wizard to provoke him must have an ulterior motive. If he followed the wizard's idea, he would definitely suffer.
Although he was confident in his own strength, the other party might have a magic trick and he had to be on guard.
However, seeing that the other party did not take action, Duran naturally had a way. Duran knew how to force Upper String One to take action: "Do you know the art of spiritualism?"
Spiritualism? Of course he knew this, and Upper String One had a bad premonition.
"It seems that you know, then you must also know that there is the underworld, and the dead are waiting to be reincarnated in the underworld, and your brother and his family are also in the underworld. Now I can communicate with the spirit and ask your brother to possess my body, so that he can use my body to perform his dreamlike swordsmanship again."
His fists clenched involuntarily. Thinking that he would meet his brother again, the long-lost sense of oppression came back again. After three hundred years, he still couldn't get out of the psychological shadow brought to him by his brother.
Having such a genius younger brother, no matter how hard I try, all the praise and achievements go to my younger brother, and I am always just a foil. Who can understand the resentment and anger?
If my younger brother appears again, how should I deal with it? Can I surpass him after three hundred years of hard work? I am not sure, because my younger brother is a person who breaks common sense. When everyone thought that children were no match for adults, my younger brother had defeated the kendo teacher. When everyone thought that ghosts were invincible, my younger brother invented the breathing method. When everyone thought that the spotted warriors would not live beyond the age of twenty-five, my younger brother lived to more than seventy and crushed me, a ghost, with his old body.
The existence of my younger brother must not be thought of with common sense. If my younger brother appears again, no one knows what he will become. Perhaps in the eyes of my younger brother, three hundred years of hard work is not worth mentioning at all, and he can easily break it.
Because I have experienced the younger brother's era, I know how terrible my younger brother is. The elder brother does not dare to face his younger brother again, for fear that his last bit of confidence will also be broken.
However, whether to communicate with spirits is ultimately decided by Duran, because the upper string one is not ready to take action, so Duran can only call out Jiguo Yuanyi and let him use his body to exert the power of the sword.
With Tsukuni Yuichi's talent combined with Duran's body, he is estimated to be able to defeat everyone in seconds. It's just right for Duran to learn and see if there is any potential in his body that has not been tapped, so that a true genius can tap it.
As soon as he said it, a baseball-sized ball of light appeared in Duran's hand. This is the soul of Tsukuni Yuichi that was summoned.
It's the breath of his younger brother. The ball of light is his younger brother. Upper Rank One was so nervous that his muscles were stiff.
"Tsukuni Yuichi in Duran!" Duran slapped the ball of light on his chest, and the ball of light merged into his body, bursting with fierce sword energy.
