Chapter 2328 The Way of Ghosts

"Is this the prescription?" Upper String One finally got the prescription. Although it was just an ordinary combination of herbs, it had an unexpected effect: "With this, my power will become even stronger."

Finally, the path of the demon has reached its extreme. After taking the medicine, he will be the same as Muzan Kibutsuji. As a human, he can only be second, but as a demon, he must strive to be the first.

Without any hesitation, Upper String One immediately took the medicine according to the prescription, and then boiled the herbs and ate them directly.

Dongdong, the heartbeat sound came, and then there was severe pain, as if he was going to die. Muzan Kibutsuji killed the doctor because he suspected that the doctor had bad intentions. The side effects after taking the medicine were really uncomfortable.

Upper String One also knelt down and had to resist the power of the medicine with all his strength.

In this way, he was not on guard, and Upper String Three happened to pass by and took the prescription away. After Duran's encouragement, he is now fully motivated. Upper String 3 will also become stronger. He will not admit that he is a weak person, because being weak is equivalent to being mean, and he will never be a mean weak person.

So the two upper strings all took medicine and strengthened.

Muzan Kibutsuji found that his little notebook was missing, and he immediately became suspicious, because now he can't trust anyone. The Buddhist scriptures in his mind made him lose the ability to read the minds of lower-level ghosts. He knew that these lower-level ghosts were all bad people and could not be trusted. He didn't want to experience the story of the farmer and the snake.

So Muzan Kibutsuji had to step up his efforts to find the special blue red spider lily, because only in this way can he overcome the weakness of sunlight and become a truly perfect creature.

Now the sense of crisis has come. Since the appearance of the wizard, Muzan Kibutsuji has been tossing and turning: "Could it be that the wizard, like Yoriichi Tsugikoku, was sent by God to oppose me?" Muzan Kibutsuji absolutely does not admit this kind of thing. Ghosts are the evolution of humans, and they are beyond humans. They should not be suppressed.

Now, everything is in danger, and there are enemies everywhere. There are ambushes everywhere. We must think of a way. Muzan Kibutsuji was too leisurely before the Warring States Period, just like a big bad wolf living in a flock of sheep. There was no motivation for him to leave his comfortable environment and work hard. Until Tsugakuin Yoriichi came out of nowhere and forced the ghost ancestor to make progress.

He started to build his own power in the Edo period, but his thinking was still based on the old inertia. He said it was the Twelve Demon Moons, but in fact, the only ones who were really useful were the upper strings, and there was not enough trust between the master and the servant. If Tsugakuin Yoriichi really appeared, the upper strings would be nothing more than cannon fodder, which would only make it more decent for the ghost ancestor to escape.

"Even if they are upper strings, they still haven't given up the human part. In the final analysis, it's still the bad nature of human beings." The ghost ancestor knew that these subordinates could not be trusted now, because he knew that there was still some residual human nature in these subordinates, and human nature was the ugliest, which would make them retain their beautiful expectations for love, their ambition, and their desire to win. These were all evil and ugly and should not exist.

From the perspective of the Ghost Ancestor, the beautiful personalities of humans bring instability and should not exist in his subordinates. His subordinates should be his subordinates forever and ever, and he should be grateful that he turned them into ghosts.

Unfortunately, the Ghost Ancestor repeatedly reminded his subordinates to eliminate these bad human qualities, but no one listened. They hid these personalities in their hearts and looked at them from time to time. It can be said that "the body is like a bodhi tree, the heart is like a mirror, always wipe it diligently, and don't let it get dusty."

In this way, how can they completely become ghosts and go to the next level in the ghost way? Only by completely becoming a ghost can they pursue the ultimate ghost. The Ghost Ancestor believes that the upper strings are not capable enough because they are not "ghosts" enough. Only by completely abandoning all human nature can they pursue the ghost way.

The first step of the ghost way is to overcome the weakness of the neck. After abandoning human nature, the neck is no longer a weakness. Muzan Kibutsuji is not afraid of having his neck chopped off, because he is truly free from the vulgar interests of humans, a pure ghost who does not pursue what humans pursue, regards money as dirt, regards beautiful women as skeletons, and regards power as garbage. What he pursues is the limit of ghosts, and he is a perfect creature.

This is the way of ghosts.

Everything about human nature should be abandoned. A ghost who can't even do this is not qualified to make progress at all, and even if he steals the prescription, he can't surpass himself. Muzan Kibutsuji knows that the one who stole his prescription must be his subordinate, because this prescription has the greatest effect on ghosts, but the prescription is just a trigger, and abandoning human nature is the real way to become a ghost.

"Only stupid ghosts will think in a human way." Muzan Kibutsuji said coldly. He decided that since these people can't be trusted, then he will use them for the last time. Let them and the Demon Slayer Corps kill each other, which is a waste utilization.

Muzan Kibutsuji is also preparing for the final battle, because the current head is a good opponent, who has broken the situation that has remained unchanged for a hundred years. As a person, he is already very good. He has to meet him and see him off. Once the current head dies, the Demon Ancestor will launch a general attack and completely destroy the Demon Slayer Corps.

Muzan Kibutsuji came to the head's house as expected. Although this is a secret place, Muzan Kibutsuji has already investigated the families of half of the demon hunters. Seeing that the head who eliminated the upper string was so miserable, the Demon Ancestor was in a good mood.

"You really build your joy on the pain of others." Duran naturally would not miss this historic meeting.

Muzan Kibutsuji was teleported here using the space blood demon technique. At this time, the eldest and second daughters of the head of the courtyard were playing with a ball. His wife was taking care of the head of the courtyard, while the head of the courtyard was lying on the sickbed and dying. There was nothing unusual in the courtyard, at least that's what the ghost ancestor thought.

"Master, you are really haunting." The ghost ancestor was not afraid, anyway, he was here to see him off: "In the past hundred years, this head of the courtyard is the first person to break the situation. Before he dies, I want to see him off."

"I think you are here to gloat over misfortunes, but I won't blame you, because gloating over misfortunes is also one of human nature."

"Haha, don't compare me with humans. I am Muzan Kibutsuji, the first ghost, the source of all ghosts, and I have long been free from the evil tastes of humans." The ghost ancestor hates being discussed as a human being the most.

"When you are criticized with the truth, your true colors will be exposed. You are very humane. I didn't expect that although you have become a ghost, you have not forgotten your roots. This master is very pleased. Unlike some people who have not yet become ghosts, they shout "I don't want to be a human anymore". Such people are really annoying and funny, don't you think? So ghosts and humans should not forget their roots." Duran taught earnestly.

The ghost ancestor was very angry because he had already forgotten his roots. He was now walking the way of ghosts, which was contrary to the way of humans. He was not a human at all, but a ghost! He had to stay calm and must not be led by the master. Jiguo Yuanyi wanted to eliminate the ghost physically, so the master had to deny his ghost way mentally. He must not be fooled. Only by unswervingly practicing the way of ghosts, the master would definitely fail miserably.
