The Heavens: One World, One Superpower

Tanjiro put on his clothes.

Listen attentively to Su Chen's explanation of the Hinokami Kagura.

He felt a little absurd.

An outsider actually wants to explain his family's more than 400-year-old heritage.

Doesn't he know it better than anyone else?

But he respected Su Chen very much.

We waited with bated breath and listened attentively.

Urokodaki Sakonji also had nothing to do.

I might as well listen to Su Chen's explanation.

He knew Su Chen was no ordinary person.

Not only does he have a special physique, but he also seems to know a lot of secrets.

Ni Douzi then lay down.

She slid herself onto Tanjiro's lap, staring at him with wide eyes, thoroughly enjoying herself.

But her eyelids drooped from time to time.

She forced her eyes open again.

She seemed unwilling to fall asleep, wanting to keep a close eye on her brother, worried that he might leave her.

Su Chen smiled slightly and shared some information he had gathered from the Demon Slayer storyline.

"Hinokami Kagura has another name, Sun Breathing."

"What?" Urokodaki Sakonji was shocked.

Tanjiro also looked incredulous.

Su Chen continued, "Mr. Linlong once said that there was a remarkable person in the Warring States period who created the first breathing technique in the world. Due to the long passage of time, his name is unknown, as is the name of this breathing technique."

"That person's name is actually Yoriichi Tsugikuni, and that breathing technique is called Sun Breathing."

"During the Warring States period, two male infants were born into the Tsugikuni clan. In that era, two male infants meant a struggle for the family property and were a sign of the family's downfall. When Tsugikuni Yoriichi was born, he had a birthmark on his forehead, a body temperature of 39 degrees Celsius, and a heartbeat that was several times faster than normal."

At this point, Su Chen and Urokodaki Sakonji couldn't help but look at Tanjiro.

Tanjiro was at a loss.

He had just mentioned that his father also had this trait from birth.

"Yoichi's father took this as an ominous sign and wanted to abandon Yoichi to prevent the two sons from fighting over the family property in the future. Fortunately, Yoichi's mother pleaded with him and protected him with her life, which allowed Yoichi to stay."

"Jikoku Enichi was born with markings, and his physique was different from that of ordinary people. He also possessed a divine perception that ordinary people did not have, which allowed him to see through the internal organs and the flow of energy in the human body. This was called the Transparent World."

"As Yoriichi Tsugikuni grew up, he used his talent to observe the movement of the sun and comprehend the universe, thus creating the Breathing of the Sun. At that time, the Demon Slayer Corps did not have a Breathing Technique and was suppressed by the forces of demons. Thanks to Yoriichi Tsugikuni's joining, he brought the Breathing Technique and guided everyone to master it, creating the five major Breathing Technique schools. This laid the foundation for the Demon Slayer Corps for a thousand years."

"Later, Muzan Kibutsuji encountered Yoriichi Tsugikuni, who injured him with the Sun Breathing sword technique. Just as Muzan was about to be defeated, he self-destructed and split into more than 1,800 pieces. Yoriichi destroyed more than 1,500 of them, but more than 300 pieces escaped. It was at this moment that Muzan Kibutsuji was severely injured, and it was also at this moment that Tamayo broke free from the control of the demon."

"At that time, Yoriichi's twin brother, Kokushibo, had already joined the Demon Slayer Corps through Yoriichi's introduction. He created the Breath of the Moon and became an extremely powerful swordsman."

"Yoriichi Tsugikuni was known as the Swordsman of Destiny, and Kokusatsu Tsugikuni was known as the Swordsman of Unparalleled Strength. The two brothers originally dedicated their lives to the Demon Slayer Corps together. However, Kokusatsu Tsugikuni betrayed the Demon Slayer Corps at this time, devoured Muzan Kibutsuji's blood, and became a demon, who is now Upper Moon One: Kokushibo."

Su Chen did not reveal that Kokushiro Tsugikatsu had killed the then-leader of the Demon Slayer Corps.

Otherwise, Urokodaki Sakonji definitely wouldn't be able to handle it.

This old man was extremely loyal to the Demon Slayer cause, a loyalty that had permeated his entire life.

Tanjiro was unaware of Upper Moon One's significance, so he was only shocked by the betrayal of the Demon Slayer Corps swordsmen.

But Sakonji Urokodaki was almost speechless with shock.

The first time he learned about Upper Moon One's origins, he discovered that he was a Demon Slayer who had betrayed the Demon Slayer Corps more than four hundred years ago.

He is also the elder brother of that extraordinary person.

This is absolutely outrageous, it's outrageous to the extreme.

"Yoriichi Tsugikuni, disheartened, returned to his residence, which was Mount Kumotori. He had rescued the ancestors of the Kamado family from demons and housed them in his home. After returning home, he left behind the legacy of the Breath of the Sun and then disappeared."

"The Kamado family has passed down the Breath of the Sun, which they named Hinokami Kagura. To prevent evil spirits from knowing about it, they have never severed the lineage."

"Later, the demons indeed launched a massacre against the Demon Slayer Corps targeting the Breath of the Sun. Everyone who knew about the Breath of the Sun was killed, except for the Kamado family, who passed it down in the name of the Hinokami Kagura."

Su Chen finished speaking.

I raised my teacup and slowly took a sip of tea.

Tanjiro and Sakonji Urokodaki were left with a lingering sense of nostalgia.

Ni Douzi had already fallen into a deep sleep.

After a long silence, Urokodaki Sakonji sighed and said, "This matter must remain a secret, and I will not even tell my lord. Otherwise, once the news gets out, I fear the demons will target Tanjiro again and carry out another massacre."

Su Chen nodded.

He knew that Urokodaki Sakonji was right.

He wouldn't have revealed what he knew if it weren't for Tanjiro teaching him Hinokami Kagura.

The secrets of the law must not be passed on to six ears.

Once the secret is passed on to six people, it is equivalent to breaking the secret.

Once a secret is revealed, it's no longer a secret.

Tanjiro only now realized that his family's heritage had such a profound origin.

It's simply unbelievable.

No wonder his father said it was a miraculous secret art and wanted him to pass it down.

Su Chen looked at Tanjiro. Actually, Tanjiro's father, Kamado Tanjuro, was the second Destiny Swordsman.

If people had come into contact with the Demon Slayer Corps earlier, perhaps they could have controlled their illness with their help.

And then they launched a second campaign to overthrow the forces of evil spirits.

It seems Muzan Kibutsuji is about to dream back to over 400 years ago and hide in the Infinity Castle again, too afraid to come out.

Unfortunately, Tanjuro Kamado died young.

Although it also broke the curse that those with the markings would not live past twenty-five.

Tanjiro looked at Su Chen and solemnly said, "I am willing to pass on the Hinokami Kagura to you."
