The demon monk in the second dimension

With a cold, murderous voice, Muzan Kibutsuji dropped a drop of his own blood onto the bamboo slip.

Chapter 81 Burning the bridge across the river

When the blood dripped onto the bamboo slip, Muzan Kibutsuji suddenly froze.

"This is?!"

He discovered that the text he couldn't understand just moments before suddenly became understandable.

Muzan Kibutsuji frowned and reached out to wipe away his own blood.

The next moment, he found that he could not understand the words on the bamboo slips again.

Even if you've just memorized some information, you'll forget it very quickly.

"Ha, interesting!"

Kibutsuji Muzan laughed out loud.

A rare look of curiosity and excitement appeared in his eyes as he slashed his wrist and smeared his blood onto the bamboo slips like water.

This time, Muzan Kibutsuji only stopped after reading the entire bamboo scroll.

After reading it, his eyes revealed a burning and greedy light.

"Demon Blood Technique? A technique that only ghosts can cultivate?"

Muzan Kibutsuji paid particular attention to the description of the "invisible robe," and his eyes flashed with a sharp light.

After reading "The Demon Blood Technique," Muzan Kibutsuji's first reaction was to kill Doma.

He suddenly raised his head, his gaze towards Xia Zhi filled with murderous intent.

A chilling killing intent emanated from Muzan Kibutsuji, causing even Nakime beside him to fall silent and dare not move.

Xia Zhi simply smiled, and even dared to tease him.

"Oh dear, are you going to kill me? I'm so scared! Should I beg for mercy now?"

"……snort!"

Looking at that punchable face, Muzan Kibutsuji abandoned his plan to kill Natsumi.

Does anyone know if there are any problems with this "Demon Blood Technique"?

He has lived for over a thousand years and has never encountered or even heard of such a thing.

How did Douma discover it?

Muzan Kibutsuji is extremely afraid of losing his life.

He stopped looking at Xia Zhi and put away the bamboo slips to think.

"Could it be that ghosts existed long ago? This thing was created by the ghosts back then? It seems that the doctor treated me according to ancient books, which is why I was turned into a ghost."

"Is this the way to allow demons to walk safely under the sun even in the absence of blue spider lilies?"

Why did the ghost disappear?

The five brains inside Muzan Kibutsuji's body were working hard.

Driven by the allure of living in the sunlight and becoming stronger, he subconsciously tried to justify his actions.

"I'm afraid that a ghost cultivated a technique and then devoured all the other ghosts, and then died unexpectedly, which is why there are no ghosts in this world. There was a legend of a hundred ghosts walking at night before I was born, and I hadn't become a ghost yet, so it can't be just a rumor."

Especially these strange bamboo slips.

It requires the blood of a demon to decipher the writing, but once the blood disappears and dries, the content will be forgotten.

Such a bizarre thing, Muzan Kibutsuji had never seen anything like it before!

Therefore, he believed that the "Demon Blood Technique" must be genuine.

"In short, let's test the authenticity of the 'Demon Blood Technique' first."

His eyes flashed with a fierce light, clearly indicating that he wasn't thinking anything good.

"If this cultivation technique is genuine, then kill Tong Mo! Only I can cultivate this 'Demon Blood Technique'! Only I can know this secret!"

Thinking of this, Kizuji Muzan said to Xia Zhi.

"You go first, I'll study this bamboo slip."

Before Xia Zhi could answer, Kibutsuji Muzan once again gave an order to Nakime, who had been completely invisible the whole time.

"Narika, take him back."

With the sound of a pipa, the scene before Xia Zhi changed, and she returned to Tong Mo's room.

……

On the seventh day after leaving the Infinite Castle, Xia Zhi, who was traveling between cities and devouring the souls of sinners to restore her magic power, realized that the curse planted by Kibutsuji Muzan within the painted skin made by Douma on her body had been activated.

It's not surprising that it's the summer solstice.

"Discarding a used tool after it has served its purpose is a common practice in the demonic path."

A day earlier, he discovered that the nobleman who had "presented" the bamboo slips and was also turned into a ghost by him had disappeared.

It is highly likely that Muzan had Nakime take her away.

Given his extremely cautious nature, he would surely investigate the origin of the bamboo slips, and it wouldn't be difficult to find this nobleman from "Tongmo's" memories.

Given Muzan Kibutsuji's personality, once he confirms the authenticity of the "Demon Blood Technique," it would be strange if he didn't kill everyone else who knew the secret!

That's exactly what happened.

During these seven days, Maikiji had Nakime randomly grab two demons and ordered them to try smearing blood on the bamboo slips.

Similarly, these two ghosts also saw the "Demon Blood Technique".

Muzan also discovered that after smearing demon blood on the bamboo slips, other demons could also recognize the characters on the bamboo slips.

They later died because they "knew too much".

At the same time, Kizuji Maimuzan also recruited humans to conduct experiments on.

As a result, even if it were human blood or blood donated by a demon, they still wouldn't be able to understand the characters on the bamboo slips.

This confirmed to Mai Kizuji that this bamboo scroll only worked on demons!

The writing on the bamboo slips must be ghost script that only ghosts can understand!

This is very likely a cultivation method that was specially recorded by the ghosts before him, a method that only ghosts can read!

Then, Kizuji Maimuzan finally dared to be bold for once.

He summoned the noble ghost and learned the whole story from him.

After confirming that Doma obtaining the bamboo slip was merely a "coincidence," and that the noble demon's "ancestral" bamboo slip was stolen from a farmer who had even dug it out of the ground, Kizuji Muzan felt much more at ease and directly allowed the noble demon to cultivate the "Demon Blood Technique."

He made the noble ghost drink the blood of two other "know-it-all" ogres, and devour their flesh, discovering that the noble ghost had indeed become much stronger.

According to Muzan Kibutsuji's assessment, a noble demon would need to eat about ten people to reach its current strength.

Moreover, there was a strange flow of energy within this cannibal's body, which involuntarily reminded him of the breathing technique of the insects in the Demon Slayer Corps.

Muzan, whose mood suddenly soured, transformed his right hand into a giant python-like alien and devoured the noble demon who thought he was favored by Lord Muzan and even dreamed of stepping on Doma's head.

However, now that it has been proven that the "Demon Blood Technique" is real, Muzan Kibutsuji will certainly not allow Doma to continue living.

……

Sensing that the curse within the painted skin had been triggered, Xia Zhi took the opportunity to completely devour the painted skin with her own body.

He summoned the Crimson Light Sword from his dantian, cast an invisibility spell on himself, and smiled.

"Fortunately, I was prepared."

When Xia Zhi was summoned to the Infinity Castle by Nakime last time, he left the coordinates.

The Crimson Sword cleaved through space, carrying Xia Zhi into it.

When Xia Zhi arrived at the Infinity Castle, in addition to Muzan Kibutsuji and Nakime, he also saw twelve demons.

This is the twelve-crescent moon.

But why are there still twelve demons even though Doma is dead?

Because Upper Moon Six consists of two demons, a brother and sister.

At this time, among the twelve ghost moons, the waxing crescent moon is still relatively healthy.

The waning crescent moon mostly appeared somewhat frightened.

Because they didn't know why Muzan Kizuji had suddenly summoned them.

Chapter 82 Restrictions Lifted

Seeing the several waning crescent moons trembling like quails, their faces filled with panic, Muzan Kibutsuji helplessly covered his forehead and couldn't help but laugh in exasperation.

"Heh heh heh, this is my waning crescent moon? A bunch of trash!"

His voice was filled with anger and murderous intent, which made the waning crescent moons even more afraid.

"In the past hundred years, only the Upper Moon has changed recently, and the only one who has killed the Pillars of the Demon Slayer Corps has always been the Upper Moon."

"The candidates for the Lower Moon have been changing all the time, and not a single Pillar has been killed in the past hundred years."

Hearing the thoughts in the Lower Moon's head, Kizuji Maimuzan became increasingly angry.

His murderous intent sent chills down the spines of the Lower Moons.

"I really can't see what use you lower moons are."

Inside the Infinite Castle, upon hearing what Muzan Kizuji said, neither the Upper Moon nor the Lower Moon dared to breathe loudly.

They believed that if they made the slightest move, their heads would roll the next moment.

After a short while, the anger in Kizuji Muzan's eyes gradually subsided as he looked at the bamboo scroll inscribed with the "Demon Blood Technique" in his hand.

That's enough. If I still can't do these lower moons well, then I'll turn them into sustenance for my cultivation.

For Muzan Onitsuji, a cannibal, demonic techniques were quite suited to his nature.

He flung his hand away and shook his head in disappointment.

"If I didn't need you now, you would all be dead!"

Because the Lower Moon demons changed so frequently, they were unaware that Muzan Kitsuji could hear their thoughts.

Some Lower Moon demons were relieved to have escaped death, while others believed that if they could obtain more of Muzan's blood, they could become stronger and defeat the Pillars of the Demon Slayer Corps.

Then there's Gyokko, the fifth Upper Moon, who's currently basking in the glory of having killed several Pillars.

Upon hearing these sounds, a vein bulged on Muzan's forehead.

"For hundreds of years, you Upper Moons haven't even been able to find a single blue spider lily, and you're still happy about it? A bunch of fools!"

In a fit of rage, he unleashed the curses within all the demons present except for Nakime.

The flesh and blood on these ghosts suddenly became uncontrollable, bulging up in clumps as if rats were scurrying under their skin.

"what!"

"Spare your life! My lord, spare your life!"

The six Lower Moon demons screamed and rolled on the ground.

The Upper Moons grunted, gritting their teeth and enduring the pain, giving Xia Zhi a good show.

However, in Upper Moon Six, Gyutaro, as the older brother, was able to endure the pain, while Daki, as the younger sister, could not.

"Ah! Brother! Brother!"

She screamed in agony, which made Taro feel a pang of heartache. He whispered something in her ear.

"I'm here! My brother's here!"

After tormenting his subordinates, Muzan Kibutsuji stopped activating the curse.

Now that he needed manpower, he had no intention of killing his subordinates, but only gave them a slight warning.

"Remember this pain. If you fail to meet my demands, this pain will increase tenfold or a hundredfold!"
