Chapter 238 Blue Spider Lily

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

Amidst a series of sonic booms, the sword energy was completely shattered. Kokushibo's six eyes contracted simultaneously, an incomprehensible feeling welling up inside him.

He could sense something blocking Dio's way, but his gaze couldn't catch any physical form.

"What is this?" Kokushibo gripped the Hollow Cry Blade tightly, the blade trembling all over his body. "An invisible power?"

Dio stomped his foot, and the ground instantly cracked. He charged towards Kokushibo like a cannonball.

"kill!"

Kokushibo's six eyes lit up simultaneously, and the Hollow Cry God Blade drew a perfect arc in the air.

"Breath of the Moon, Sixteenth Form, Moonbow, Crescent Moon!"

The blade flashed, transforming into a blood moon, and the sword energy poured down like a cascading silver river. The air was torn apart, emitting a sharp whistling sound.

"THE WORLD!!!"

Dio let out a roar, and time froze at that moment.

The flying shards of stone froze in mid-air, even the dust in the air remained still. The sword energy solidified less than a meter from Dio.

Dio's figure moved through frozen time, appearing behind Kokushibo in the blink of an eye.

"Even though it's only for a second, it's enough for me, Dio!" A fanatical light flashed in Dio's eyes.

A golden Stand appeared instantly, its fists raining down on Kokushibo's entire body. Each punch struck a vital spot, the speed so fast that only countless golden afterimages could be seen.

"Mudamudaimudai!"

Kokushibo's body was riddled with dents. The sound of bones shattering could be clearly heard.

"Time begins to flow!" Dio shouted in a low voice.

The moment the world began to spin again, all the damage erupted simultaneously.

"boom!"

Kokushibo's body was struck as if by an invisible giant hammer, and he was thrown forward. Large amounts of blood gushed out, drawing blood arcs in the air.

He flew backward like a kite with a broken string, crashing heavily into a wall in the distance.

Countless bone spurs pierced out of his body, attempting to stabilize his shattered form, but the damage was too severe, and even his proud regenerative abilities couldn't repair it in time.

"How is this possible?" A look of shock flashed in Kokushibo's six eyes.

He hadn't felt this powerlessness since Yoriichi Tsugikuni's death. A long-forgotten sense of fear welled up inside him.

"This is the power of a Stand!" Dio laughed wildly. "Before me, Dio, your Moon Breathing is nothing but a child's play!"

Tanjiro and Gyomei Himejima, who were watching from a distance, were so shocked that they were speechless.

Himejima Gyoumei was the first to react. He swung his right hand out, and the meteor hammer, accompanied by a whistling wind, smashed towards Dio.

"Breath of Rock, First Form, Serpentine, Bipolar!"

The enormous iron ball sliced ​​through the air with a sharp whistling sound. But just as the flail was about to strike, Dio's figure suddenly vanished from the spot.

In the next instant, Dio appeared next to the flail and grabbed the chain with his hand.

"What?!" Beimingyu Xingming's expression changed drastically.

Dio yanked the chain sharply with his right hand. The sudden force caused Himejima Gyomei to lose his balance completely, and he flew forward uncontrollably.

Just then, a burst of fire came from the side, and Tanjiro had already arrived in front of them without anyone noticing.

"Breath of the Sun, Form of Three, Mirror of the Blazing Sun!"

Tanjiro's Nichirin Blade sliced ​​through the air, flames erupting from the blade and transforming into a crimson streak.

"Too weak!" Dio laughed wildly. "You think you can hurt me, Dio, with an attack of this level?"

A golden world instantly appeared before Dio. With a flick of his right hand, he easily deflected Tanjiro's blade.

Before Tanjiro could sheathe his sword and change his attack, Sekai's left fist slammed into his abdomen.

"Bang!"

A dull thud rang out. The world's fist, like a cannonball, pierced straight through Tanjiro's abdomen.

Blood splattered, and the sound of internal organs shattering was clearly audible. Tanjiro's body instantly bent into a bow shape, his eyes almost bulging out of their sockets.

"cough!"

A mouthful of blood gushed from his mouth, and he flew backward like a cannonball, rolling a long distance on the ground before coming to a stop.

"Tanjiro!"

Beimingyu Xingming roared angrily. He gripped his weapon tightly with both hands, his muscles tensed instantly, and the blue markings on his forehead became even more distinct.

"Dio!"

Although Beimingyu Xingming was blind, his aura surged at this moment, and his killing intent almost materialized.

"I'm going to crush you!"

With a roar, Beimingyu Xingming gripped his broad axe tightly in his right hand and stomped his foot hard.

"Rock Breathing, Seventh Form: Rock Fracture!"

The broadsword drew a sharp arc in the air, slashing towards Dio with terrifying force, the blade cutting through the air with a piercing whistling sound.

This attack is more powerful than any of the previous ones.

"Your anger. Very well!" Dio's lips curled into a cruel smile. "But too slow! THE WORLD!"

Time stopped again. Himejima Gyomei's figure remained frozen in mid-air.

The chain that Dio was holding in his left hand suddenly started to move violently.

Under the world's manipulation, the chains coiled around Himejima Gyoumei like serpents. The tough steel chains wrapped around his body several times, binding him firmly.

"Time begins to flow!"

"What?!" Beiming Yuxingming's expression changed drastically.

He suddenly felt something tightly binding his whole body, and before he could react, a tremendous force came from the chains.

"Snap!"

With a crisp sound of bones shattering, Himejima Gyoumei's body was twisted in two by the chains.

Large amounts of blood gushed out, with internal organs and bone fragments scattered all over the ground.

"No, no!!" Tanjiro struggled to lift his head, and upon seeing this scene, his pupils contracted sharply, and tears welled up in his eyes.

He tried to stand up by supporting himself with his hands, but the wound in his abdomen made him almost faint even with the slightest movement.

At that moment, Dio stood before him, arms outstretched in an exaggerated pose: "An immortal body, eternal youth!"

"And this unprecedented Stand power!" A golden world appeared behind him, radiating a suffocating sense of oppression.

"WRYYYYY!" Dio roared to the sky, "There is nothing in this world that can threaten me, Dio!"

Just then, a violent killing intent erupted from the ruins. Kokushibo's body burst out from the rubble, his six eyes glowing blood red.

"I, Kokushibo, the First Upper Moon One," his voice deep and cold, "how dare I stop here!"

"Clang!"

A sharp metallic scraping sound echoed throughout the underground palace.

The Void Crying God Blade streaked through the air with a silver light, and the eyeballs on its blade simultaneously opened: "Breath of the Moon, Form of the Six Realms, Moon Rainbow Crescent!"

Countless crescent-shaped sword energies roared out, weaving into an impenetrable net of death in the air.

"Useless, useless, useless, useless!" Dio laughed, and the world's fists rained down like a storm.

Each punch precisely shattered the sword energy, creating ripples in the air.

"THE WORLD!"

In the instant time stood still, Dio flashed in front of Kokushibo, and The World's right fist slammed heavily into his chin, sending him flying into the air.

"Time begins to flow!"

"boom!"

Kokushibo's body was sent flying by the immense force, and before he could adjust his posture in mid-air, countless fist shadows had already enveloped his entire body.

"Ora ora ora ora!"

Amidst the relentless pounding of punches, Kokushibo's body was shattered by each blow.

Bones snapped, flesh flew everywhere, and even the once-proud regenerative abilities were completely rendered ineffective by this ferocious attack.

"Let me see," Dio looked up at the shattered Kokushibo in mid-air, "what the blood of Upper Moon One really tastes like!"

Dior's blood vessels suddenly swelled, bursting forth from his body as if alive.

I'm currently reading the error-free version! This is my first novel. (Reading)

The dense network of blood vessels split in the air, turning into countless tiny branches that tightly bound every piece of Kokushibo's flesh and blood.

"No!" Kokushibo roared in despair, but it was too late. His blood vessels throbbed, absorbing his flesh and blood bit by bit.

Every drop of blood was assimilated by Dio's cells, becoming part of his power.

The battlefield in the distance suddenly fell silent.

At this moment, the surrounding smoke completely dissipated, and the moonlight poured down like water.

The Demon Slayer Corps members in battle, the other Pillars, and even the Lower Moons sent by Muzan—all eyes were focused on Dio.

Moonlight pierced through the clouds and shone on the broken dome of the underground palace, with a beam of silvery light shining directly on Dio.

Dior spread his arms, letting the moonlight shine on his perfect body. His muscles sculpted like marble in the moonlight, exuding a suffocating sense of oppression.

He could clearly feel that his Stand ability was evolving, and the limit of time stop was being greatly extended.

Seeing that things were not going well, Doma and Hantengu, who were in the distance, turned around and fled without hesitation.

"Trying to escape?"

Dior sneered, "In front of me, Dior, you don't even have the right to run away!"

He slammed his right foot into the ground, bursting forward like lightning. In the instant time stood still, Dio was already standing in front of the basil.

"What's going on?!" Doma's vision blurred, and by the time he realized what was happening, Dio was already right in front of him.

"Blood Demon Art: Mist Ice: Water Lily Bodhisattva!" Douma unleashed the Blood Demon Art without hesitation.

In an instant, three enormous ice bodhisattvas solidified in the air and launched an attack on Dio simultaneously.

"Muda muda muda!" Dio let out his signature maniacal laughter.

A golden world instantly appeared before him, and he unleashed a barrage of punches.

"Bang bang bang!" The wind from the punches howled, and the three Ice and Snow Bodhisattvas were instantly shattered.

Ice shards danced in the air, and before the ice crystals reflecting the moonlight could even hit the ground, the world's fist had already slammed into Doma.

"This power... is impossible!" Doma's expression changed drastically. Just as he was about to unleash his Blood Demon Art, the world's fist rain poured down.

Amidst the relentless pounding of punches, Doma's body was smashed to pieces, blood and flesh flying everywhere.

Dio's veins bulged once more, coiling around Doma's fragments like hungry serpents. The veins writhed, absorbing his flesh and blood bit by bit.

"THE WORLD!"

With a roar, Dio conjured a golden world. A torrent of punches rained down like a storm, shattering Hantengu's body into pieces.

But just as the world's fist was about to completely crush Hantengu, a strange light flashed in Dio's eyes; the feel of this body was a little off.

He leaped up suddenly, and the world's eyes instantly locked onto his surroundings. In a corner of the ruins, a figure no bigger than a rat was frantically fleeing.

"I see." Dio sneered. "No wonder you were able to escape from me last time."

Dior instantly rushed to the side of that small figure.

The world's hand shot out like lightning and grabbed the body that was only the size of a mouse.

Dior squeezed hard with his right hand, and blood spurted out from between his fingers.

"Ahhh! Please let me go!" Half-day Dog let out a sharp scream.

"I'll let you go!"

Dio sneered, and the tip of his right hand suddenly became sharp, piercing directly into the skull of the tengu. Fleshy buds extended from the fingertip, instantly taking control of the tengu's nerves.

"Tell me information about Muzan! His weaknesses! His goals!"

"No Infinite City." Hantengu managed to utter the words amidst excruciating pain, "Blue Spider Lily from Another Dimension. Perfect."

Before he could finish speaking, the Half-Headed Dog's body suddenly began to disintegrate. His skin began to crack, and in the blink of an eye, he turned into a pile of ashes that drifted down from Dio's fingers.

"Eliminated?" Dio's eyes narrowed. Even with his mind under his control, Muzan could still remotely eliminate an Upper Moon.

But these words had already piqued his interest.

"Infinite Castle Alternate Dimension. Blue Spider Lily." Dio repeated these words in a low voice, "Is this your secret, Muzan?"

He turned around and glanced at the remaining Demon Slayer Corps members.

"I'll give you a chance." Dio opened his arms, his figure like a demon in the moonlight. "Submit to me, Dio, and I can grant you the power of eternal life."

"Stop joking!" Water Pillar Giyu Tomioka coughed up blood, but still stood up straight. He slowly raised his Nichirin Blade, the tip pointing directly at Dio.

"Even if you kill us all," Shinobu Kocho raised her head, "the Demon Slayer Corps will never disappear! One day, someone will completely eradicate monsters like you!"

Kanroji Mitsuri gritted her teeth and said, "New swordsmen will rise. Humanity will never surrender; there will always be those who stand up against monsters like you!"

The four pillars supported each other, struggling to stand in a row.

They were all severely wounded, but their hands holding the swords remained motionless. The four Nichirin swords gleamed coldly in the moonlight.

"Interesting." Dio's lips curled into a cruel smile. "Then let me see how long your resolve can last! WRYYYYY!"

"Since you've chosen death," a cruel glint flashed in Dio's eyes, "then so be it! THE WORLD!"

In the instant time stood still, the world bent down and picked up several Nichirin Blades scattered on the ground. The golden Stand casually weighed the blades in its hand, then hurled them away.

The blade flew out in the still air and finally stopped in front of the four Pillars, the tip of the blade only a few centimeters away from their bodies.

Time begins to flow!

"puff!"

Four Nichirin Blades pierced their bodies almost simultaneously, blood splattered, and they fell to the ground at the same time.

Dio slowly walked to the corpse, and suddenly the blood vessel in his right hand ruptured, dripping blood onto the four people.

"Now, are you willing to submit to me?" Dio's voice held a hint of amusement. "This is the new life I have bestowed upon you."

The four men's bodies began to convulse, and something seemed to wriggle beneath their skin. A moment later, they opened their eyes.

"Master." The four knelt on the ground and bowed their heads in greeting.

Dio nodded in satisfaction, his gaze shifting to the deep crater created by the explosion. Two people lay there—a severely wounded Tanjiro and Gyomei Himejima, who had been cut in half at the waist.

Dio leaped into the pit, but the next moment, his expression suddenly froze.

"What?!"

Dio's pupils contracted sharply. He saw only the corpse of Gyomei Himejima on the ground, while Tanjiro, who should have been lying there, had vanished.
