I, the Lord of the Fifth Throne, am the source of all things!

"Of course, I..."

"Let's forget about Mr. Tanjuro. I already said before that he shouldn't do any strenuous exercise for the time being. Since it's a family-inherited ritual dance, Tanjiro will definitely dance it, right?"

"Ah? I... I can, but not as well as my father."

Upon hearing that he was to perform the Hinokami Kagura dance, Tanjiro Kamado scratched the back of his head, looking somewhat embarrassed.

It wasn't that he was unwilling; after all, Duanmu Lian was the benefactor who saved his father.

I just wanted to see the Kagura dance; it's no big deal.

Tanjiro himself lacked confidence in his ability to perform the Kagura dance well, fearing he would embarrass his family and father.

"It's alright, Tanjiro. Among all your younger siblings, you are the most proficient in Hinokami Kagura. You have already inherited it. This... is for you."

As a father, Tanjuro Kamado noticed his son's lack of confidence, so he gently and lovingly handed Tanjuro the family heirloom sun-shaped paper earrings.

Tanjiro naturally knew that these were his family's heirloom earrings, and his father had said more than once that he must pass on the Hinokami Kagura and the earrings.

Giving him the earrings now signifies Tanjuro's acceptance and recognition of him.

Tanjiro was deeply moved as he received the sunflower earring. His father's recognition and trust made all his insecurities disappear.

He hurriedly went to a room, took out his father's sacrificial clothes and the seven-branched wooden knife, and put them on.

Then, Tanjiro took a deep breath under the watchful eyes of his family and Duanmu Lian.

After catching his breath and recalling his father's teachings, Tanjiro began to dance in the courtyard of his home, performing the family's Hinokami Kagura dance.

......................

Having only observed for a short time, Duanmu Lian, who had already activated the chat group's analytical and computational functions and put her brain in an overclocked state, completely memorized the Fire God Kagura.

He broke down Tanjiro's movements in his mind and then memorized the other's breathing rhythm and cardiopulmonary function.

In half a day, he mastered the Hinokami Kagura, or rather, the Breath of the Sun.

However, he was not satisfied with the Breath of the Sun overall.

Like the previous demon-transformation potion, he felt that this breathing technique still had considerable room for improvement.

After healing Tanjuro Kamado and obtaining the blooming blue spider lily, Duanmu Ren bid farewell to the Kamado family.

Back at the base, Duanmu Lian began to modify the breathing technique using the knowledge and insights she had gained.

"Breathing...breathing. This breathing technique can emit the same energy as the sun, which is quite similar to the Ripple Qi Gong that I haven't obtained. The AI...intercepts electromagnetic radiation from all frequencies of the sun, compares and modifies this frequency with the breathing of the sun, and resonates with the human body's life magnetic field..."

Looking at the calculated results on the virtual screen in front of her, Duanmu Lian began to experiment herself.

He had prepared medical equipment in case something went wrong and he couldn't get timely treatment.

He used the immense computing power of the AI ​​and the chat group to modify the breathing technique, and the first thing that came to mind was Ripple Qigong.

Although his collection doesn't include anything from the JOJO world, since Ripple is a power derived from breathing, he should be able to apply it in a similar way.

"Huff...inhale...cough vomit—!"

Duanmu Lian tried to breathe at the new breathing frequency. At first, he felt his blood heat up, but the next moment he felt that the heat was very irritable and out of control.

In an instant, the medical equipment monitoring Duanmu Lian's condition sounded an alarm.

Subsequently, countless nanomedical devices poured into Duanmu Lian's bleeding mouth and nose, beginning to treat his internal injuries.

Although she was in very poor physical condition, Duanmu Lian wiped the blood from her mouth and nose and began to record the mistakes she had made in breathing.

He thought about the settings of JOJO's Ripple technique in his memory.

Breathing is related to blood because blood carries oxygen from the lungs, and the oxygen in the blood is related to cells, which are equivalent to the body.

Just as throwing a stone into water creates ripples, using a special breathing technique generates ripples within the body, thus producing powerful energy.

The so-called water ripples are resonance.

The resonance in the blood, the resonance in the flesh, the resonance in the life force!

Currently, Duanmulian has not yet found the exact resonant frequency.

If the wrong resonance frequency is used on the human body, the backlash that Duan Mulian experienced was only minimal.

After all, the human body is the most intricate machine, and even the slightest error can affect the whole.

"Pfft—!"

"Uhhhhh!!!"

"There's something wrong with his internal organs..."

Duanmu Lian spent the entire day in the base's medical room.

He first vomited blood from his mouth and nose, then his blood vessels burst, causing even more serious damage to his internal organs.

Fortunately, there was medical equipment that had been prepared in advance; otherwise, even if he had several lives, it wouldn't have been enough to sustain him.

Each failure brought Duanmu Lian closer to the most accurate breathing frequency.

Several hours later, Duanmu Lian finally achieved results by using the knowledge she had gained from the interior space and with the help of analytical calculations.

"The sun and moon rise and set, eras rise and fall, the world is formed, exists, decays and empties, all things grow and perish... They... are all breathing."

"With each exhale and inhale, each exhale and each exhale, the gains and losses of the human body, and the rise and fall of heaven and earth, are all contained within."

Before dawn the next day, the uninhabited forest was bathed in sunlight as bright as day.

Duanmu Lian sat cross-legged on the top floor of the base, breathing at a peculiar frequency with her eyes closed.

His entire body was like a reactor, with boundless golden light emanating from his body, making him look like a god or sun god descending to earth.

Then, the sunlight turned into moonlight, and under the interplay of the sunlight and moonlight, a dazzling array of colors was created.

At this moment, he achieved the feat of creating something from nothing, and his breathing technique has advanced a hundred steps, allowing his body to extract even more powerful energy from heaven and earth.

However, he already knew that this breathing technique was not some kind of ripple qigong.

After all... once Duanmu Lian extracted solar energy from her body's life force, she was no longer satisfied with the so-called sun.

This breathing technique is essentially a simulation of the sun in the sky, but the entire world and universe are not limited to solar energy as objects of simulation.

Therefore, he used the chat group's analytical calculation function, along with his own brain, to begin further deduction.

As he said, the whole world seemed to be breathing.

The human body is a microcosm, and the universe is a macrocosm of the human body.

The human body has yin and yang and the five elements; if these are imbalanced, diseases will arise.

The universe has Yin and Yang and the Five Elements; if they are disrupted, the world will undergo great changes.

Just as the universe changes, so too does the human body's breathing.

Time changes everything, much like the metabolism of the human body.

"Wonderful, wonderful!"

Duanmu Lian suddenly opened his eyes, concealing the seven-colored energy flowing across his body. A joyful smile graced his face as he exclaimed:

"Breathing, absorbing the essence of the sun and moon, breathing in the two energies of the universe, the mysteries of heaven and earth are all contained in this breathing. It is the circulation of metabolism in the body, expelling the old and taking in the new, so that life continues endlessly. The breathing of the universe is the rise and fall of each era, and the breathing of the human body is the metabolism of life. What else is 'breathing'?"

It's not that the computing power can't calculate it anymore, but rather that Duanmu Lian has reached her current limit, so she has stopped.

The new breathing method he modified, innovated, and summarized can no longer be described as the breathing of the sun.

Ripple Qigong is not qualified, and Lian is confident that her unique breathing method has surpassed it.

After all, the breathing technique modified by Duanmu Lian Shou is hundreds or thousands of times more powerful than the previous Sun Breathing and Ripple Technique.

So, if we were to name this entirely new breathing method...

Then let's call it...

"Seven Treasures Wonderful Breathing Method!"

After thinking for a moment, Duanmu Lian came up with this name for her breathing technique.

His breathing technique incorporates the seven elements of metal, wood, water, fire, earth, yin, and yang, hence it is called the Seven Treasures.

The inspiration comes from the Seven Treasures Tree, a magical artifact of the Taoist Zhunti in the novel "Investiture of the Gods".

The phrase "Seven Treasures' Wonderful Guidance" also implies that these seven treasures can miraculously bring out treasures beyond the seven treasures themselves.

According to Duanmu Lian, the Five Elements and Yin-Yang can also give rise to other attributes, such as time and space.

At this moment, Duanmu Lian looked down from the top of the base and leaped into the forest.

He came to a large, leafy tree and began to practice his breathing technique.

In the blink of an eye, streams of beautiful, rainbow-like energy overflowed from Duanmu Lian's body and then attached themselves to the trees and grass in front of her and around her.

And when these colorful energy streams detached from the plants and returned to Duanmu Lian's body.

Streams of life were drawn in by these seven-colored energies and entered Duanmu Lian's body.

With each breath, Lian swept away all the life force of the surrounding plants and trees, drawing it into her own body.

Reflected in his smiling eyes were all the natural scenes that had withered into tree trunks and grass ash.

Legend has it that the Seven Treasures Tree can brush away anything.

It is currently unknown whether Duanmu Lian's Seven Treasures Breathing Method can achieve that level of skill, but it already has the wonderful effect of drawing in the essence of substances into the body.

Having obtained the Ghost Transformation Formula and the Breathing Technique, the value of the entire world in Duanmu Lian's eyes gradually diminished.

He used radar to locate the veins of the gorilla-red sand iron and gorilla-red ore, and then mined and collected them.

In this way, there's no need to contact the Demon Slayer Corps anymore.

After all, his next move could be considered as making an enemy of the entire Demon Slayer Corps.

Because he released the products of his experiments, allowing them to prey on humans.

The Red-Eating Rabbits don't have the flaws that only devils want, like sunlight or wisteria flowers; they're currently catching people to eat in broad daylight.

The Japanese army, along with many others, were cruelly eaten by Zhu Shitu.
