Chapter 172: Group Mobilization, Stunned Yu Hu (Two-in-One
Chapter 172: A collective attack, Yu Hu was stunned (two in one)
"Zezai...it's such a strange word. I've never heard it before."
Kanroji Mitsuri's big eyes were full of curiosity.
"You just joined the Demon Slayer Corps not long ago, so it's normal that you don't know." Yoya Shiki looked at the pillars, "This is a special phenomenon recorded in ancient books, which can be traced back to the first batch of demon slayers. The inheritance of the Breath of Time has not been cut off, and some swordsmen have unintentionally activated their patterns and gained extraordinary power.
With that kind of power, they can kill ghosts with ease, even on their strings.
But as time goes by, after the breath of the sun is completely cut off, the swordsmen who can activate the markings will also be submerged in the long river of history. This is why, for hundreds of years, no one has died on the string. With the help of this kind of power, even the pillars cannot compete with the first string of the twelve ghost moons. "
As he spoke, Ubuyashiki Yoshiya's eyes revealed a hint of reminiscence.
There is no doubt that that era was definitely the most prosperous era for the Demon Slayer Corps. Countless geniuses emerged one after another. Especially the existence of that man forced Wuhan and his demons to hide in the mountains to survive.
Even after the man died, the breath of the sun he left behind created the five basic breathing methods of water, rock, fire, wind, and thunder for future generations.
However, his death also means that the rising sun of the Demon Slayer Corps will eventually set.
Until now, not only has the inheritance of the Breath of the Sun disappeared, but even the strength of the Demon Slayer Corps has weakened to the extreme. It is hard to imagine that the Thunder Pillar of the Five Breathing Techniques can be absent. This has never happened before. Fortunately, He saw Xia and Shang, who suddenly appeared in an invincible manner just like Yuan Yi from Jiguo hundreds of years ago.
This made him have to suspect that Xia Shang was the destined son of this era.
Fortunately, Xia Shang couldn't hear what he was thinking, otherwise he would have shown the same sunny smile as the people of his motherland.
"So that's it. Doesn't it mean that as long as you can turn on the markings, you can have the power to kill the upper string." Immortal Kawa Saneya said excitedly.
As a result, the next second, Nagayashiki Yaoya poured cold water on his head.
"It is recorded in the ancient books that anyone who turns on the stripes will not live to be 25 years old, except for one person, and that is the founder of Breath of the Sun, Mr. Ji Guoyuan.
Although stripes can allow the opener to gain powerful power, this power requires overdraft of life in exchange for it. If possible, I hope you will consider it carefully. "
"Then what are you waiting for? Mr. Xia Shang, please tell me how to turn on the markings."
Purgatory Xingshoulang looked at Xia Shang sincerely.
"To turn on the markings, two conditions must be met. First, the body temperature must reach 39 degrees, and second, the pulse frequency must be above 200." Xia Shang said calmly.
"39 degrees? In this situation, it is very difficult for people to stay awake, let alone fight."
Butterfly Ninja was a little surprised. You must know that the normal body temperature of a person is between 36 and 37 degrees. Once it exceeds 37 degrees, it will cause discomfort to the human body, let alone 39 degrees. In situations like this, timely treatment is generally required. Otherwise it can easily endanger life.
"As long as you can overcome it, there is a high probability that you will be able to open the pattern. If you can't overcome it, that's your problem. Well, Mr. Yaoya, please come with me."
After saying that, Xia Shang took Uyashiki Yaoya to the side of the tree.
"Mr. Yaoya, I hope you can do me a favor."
"Please tell me." Yaozai nodded slightly.
"Help me find the blue Bana flower. This flower grows in the place where Jiguoyuan's wife is buried. It only blooms two or three times during the day in a year, and the growth conditions are very harsh. Once the environment is slightly damaged, groups of Bana flowers will bloom. All will die."
After all, only the Utanyashiki clan knows where Tsukuni Enichi and his wife are buried. Maybe Tanjiro's father and mother also know that their ancestors, Tankichi and Akiko, were good friends with Tsukuni Enichi. He told them where his wife was buried, but they were dead now.
The only ones who know the location so far are probably the Uyashiki family.
"No wonder Muzan couldn't find the blue Higan flower. It turns out that this kind of flower only blooms during the day." Then Uyashiki said the name of a mountain.
And that mountain happens to be where Tanjiro's family lives.
In other words, when Muzan attacked Tanjiro's family, he missed what he dreamed of. However, it was winter that day and it was snowy. It was normal that he couldn't find it. But if Muzan knew about it, he would have missed the blue Higan flower. , probably very angry.
"I will immediately send a turtle to search there. I hope I will find something." Ubuyashiki Yaoya decided to act secretly and sent a turtle who could not betray or leak information.
"After you get the blue Higan flower, remember to give me one." Xia Shang glanced at Zhu Shi holding an umbrella in the distance to avoid the sun, and then, led by the logistics staff, he walked towards the room arranged for him by Yao Zai.
the other side.
Immortal Sekawa Minya said disdainfully, "It doesn't sound difficult at all."
At this time, Tomioka Giyu spoke.
"It's not difficult for you to accept such harsh conditions. I really envy you for having a simple-thinking brain."
"Say it again if you have the guts." Immortal Sekawa Saneya said very unhappily.
Seeing this, Kanroji Mitsuri quickly stood up and changed the topic: "No, don't be angry, let's discuss how to start the pattern training."
"That's right, we don't have much time left." Tears flowed from the pale eyes of Beimingyu Xingming, "Even if Mitsuri's plan succeeds, it will be difficult to kill Muzan without sufficient strength. Once Muzan knows that the blue red spider lily we gave him is fake, he will definitely launch a more crazy counterattack."
"Hmph, for your sake, I won't bother with him." Fushigawa Shiya snorted coldly and turned to walk towards the training ground alone.
"Giyuu, you shouldn't say those words."
Rengoku Kyojuro didn't want to see conflicts between the pillars, especially at this critical moment.
Giyuu Tomioka was silent for a moment, then left silently.
…………
One day later, bad news continued.
Ubuyashiki Yoya looked at the crows flying outside the window, and his mood became heavier.
The black figures were like messengers delivering letters for the god of death. Whenever they appeared, it meant that a large number of people were killed by demons.
The atmosphere on the training ground was extremely dull.
Finally, it was still Busou who couldn't help it. He chopped the ground with a sword with a ferocious face and roared: "Why don't we take action! Are we going to be like cowards and watch those ghosts slaughtering humans at will!"
"How is the progress of Shinobu?"
Rengoku Kyojuro asked Mitsuri beside him.
"I heard that they are developing a potion that can turn ghosts into humans, and it should work on Muzan."
Suddenly, Xia Shang walked out of the room and exhaled the waste gas in his body. The corners of his mouth slightly raised, and he looked in a very good mood.
[Five brains and seven hearts are merging, and the current progress is 78%]
Currently, there are two hearts beating on both sides of his chest, and the other five hearts are in his arms, legs and neck. However, these hearts are still very immature and need a certain amount of time to strengthen before they can become heart engines.
As for the brain... For the time being, there is only one more, which is located in Xia Shang's abdomen.
It cannot think independently, but the memory and thinking are shared. Once Xia Shang's main brain is destroyed, this secondary brain will immediately become the main brain, which is equivalent to a backup power supply.
"It's getting dark, is there anyone who wants to go with me to hunt the upper rank?" Xia Shang's tone was quite calm.
It seemed that hunting the upper rank was as easy as discussing what to eat tonight.
"What?" Fuzugawa Shiya suspected that he had heard it wrong.
"Don't you think they are annoying? I don't want to be affected by them when fighting Muzan." Xia Shang tidied his clothes and prepared to set off.
"Mr. Xia Shang, if you act rashly, will it cause Muzan's displeasure and make him even more crazy? Otherwise, let's wait until our plan starts before we start." Rengoku Kyojuro advised.
"Kyojuro, do you want to hear what you are saying? Will he stop if we just sit back and do nothing like we are doing now? Then where did these crows come from?"
Fuzugawa Shiya strongly agreed with Xia Shang's idea. At this moment, if he didn't vent his anger, he would go crazy!
"Besides Fushigawa Shima, who else wants to go with me?" Xia Shang didn't expect them to help him, as long as they could help him stop the upper rank for a while, so that he could kill more efficiently. Otherwise, it would be a waste of time to chase and chase like Hantengou.
"Add me." Beimingyu Xingming took a step forward.
"And me."
Iguro Xiaobanai, who always appeared on the tree, touched the smooth head of the white snake and jumped down from the tree.
"Are you all going? Then I'll go too." Mitsuri raised her hand.
"In that case, I'll go too."
Rengoku Kyojuro's voice was loud.
…………
In a village near the sea, several children were playing with each other with a colorful pot.
"Let me play with it."
"No, you've already played it once."
Late at night, the parents of several children stood in front of the wooden house and waved them back to sleep.
"Erlang, I'll give you this pot for safekeeping. We'll try to raise fish with it tomorrow."
"What a great idea."
The sudden voice made one of the children ask in confusion: "Erlang, were you talking just now?"
"That's you, Tianxia."
Seeing several people shaking their heads, Tianjian, who was holding the colorful pot, couldn't help but frown, "Strange, the sound seems to come from the pot."
Unexpectedly, as soon as he finished speaking, a puff of black smoke poured out from the mouth of the pot.
"Ghost! Ghost!" When he saw the black smoke condense into a terrifying evil ghost with a pale body and purple fins on his head, Tianjian subconsciously threw the colorful pot out of his hand, "Hurry, run..."
"Don't you want to raise fish with my pot? I'll help you."
Yuhu took out a pot with waterweed patterns and covered Tianjian's head fiercely. Then, a bloated goldfish rushed out of the pot mouth. The goldfish opened its bloody mouth and actually bit off half of Tianjian's body in one bite.
Seeing such a horrifying scene, Erlang and his companions were instantly frightened.
"Swish, swish, swish, isn't it too late to run now? Your corpses can just be a new work of art for me."
Yu Hu's body was like sea water, entwined around the bodies of the few people. A pair of small ghost arms grew out of his body, which brutally tore the few people into pieces and put them into a pot. "I really don't know what the adults are thinking. You want me to share my blood with those ordinary people? I won't do that. They are only worthy of being my food."
"Go ahead, eat everything I see!" Yuhu's face showed a sick look.
Soon, pots with waterweed patterns emerged from under him. These pots were shaking, and goldfish swam out of the pots with their mouths puffed up, and finally rushed into the village with the pots.
Listening to the screams and cries coming from the front, Yuhu waved his arms intoxicatedly.
The scene came to Xia Shang.
Led by the crow, several people ran through the woods.
"The area ahead is the area where Yuhu appeared, everyone be careful." Rengoku Kyojuro followed behind Xia Shang and turned his head to say to the other pillars.
"Such a strong smell of blood."
"In front."
Except for Shinobu Kocho, everyone else came for this operation.
"Damn it! How many people did he kill!" As the wind pillar, Fuzuka Shima was extremely sensitive to the blood mixed in the sea breeze. This kind of richness was definitely not emitted from one or two people.
However, when they were about to arrive,
Yuhu seemed to have sensed something, and said to himself: "Swish, swish, it seems that there are several powerful auras rushing towards me. Is it the group of idiots from the Demon Slayer Corps? I didn't expect that the cowards would dare to show their heads."
"Breath of the Wind·Type 1 Dust Whirlwind·Slash!" A roar sounded from the forest, and then a wind column condensed by countless wind blades, like a high-speed rotating drill, plowed the soil on the ground and rushed towards Yuhu.
"Hey, it's rare to see a guy who can use Breath of the Wind so well."
Facing the oncoming strong wind, Yuhu leisurely took out a pot with wave patterns. The next second, a steady stream of water gushed out from the mouth of the pot, like a fountain, forming a water bowl to cover itself.
When the wind blade touched the water wall, countless ripples appeared immediately, but the water wall was much tougher than Fuzugawa Shiya imagined, and it seemed that it could change from soft to hard freely. Therefore, no matter how fierce the wind blade's attack was, it could not cut through the water wall at once. Soon, the wind blade was worn out.
"You are so rude. You actually attacked me. Is this the style of your Demon Slayer Corps?" At this time, Yuhu had not yet realized the seriousness of the matter. He didn't take it seriously at all.
"To deal with you, any means are not too much." Fuzugawa Shiya gripped the handle tightly, ready to attack again.
"No, how many people are there?"
Yuhu felt vaguely uneasy.
"Guess..."
Rengoku Kyojuro, Beiming Island Gyomei, Iguro Obanai... Xia Shang and the other five slowly walked out.
Almost all members of the Demon Slayer Corps were present!
Yuhu was stunned.
I am guilty of two chapters of water... (He bowed his head to admit his mistake and shed small pearls.)
