Under the threat of death, he dared not continue to seek out artists, but instead began to turn ordinary people into cannibalistic monsters.
Because the pot is mostly kept indoors, where the house blocks out the sunlight, he can commit crimes in other people's homes even during the day.
A town quickly fell into his hands.
With the Crescent Moons exerting their power, the situation, which had just begun to improve, immediately deteriorated within a few days.
In particular, the two Upper Moon demons, Kokushibo and Akaza, suddenly joined forces and destroyed an army that was trying to subdue them, as well as the Demon Slayer Corps' Flame Pillar, Kyojuro Rengoku.
They gathered thousands of cannibalistic demons and made a show of advancing on Tokyo.
War raged, and demons devoured people.
In this situation, the news of cannibalistic demons could not be hidden at all and spread like wildfire.
Panic gripped the Taisho era, and ordinary people lived in constant fear at night, dreading the arrival of evil spirits.
……
While major battles were being waged in various places, Xia Zhi was also very busy.
Using the magic of the Asura incarnation, he split into nine, appearing in the battlefield between humans and ghosts, absorbing the souls of the dead.
Nine is the ultimate number. Each time Xia Zhi uses the Asura Incarnation, she has to give up one-tenth of her essence blood, so she can only have a maximum of nine Asura Incarnations.
Controlling ten lines simultaneously also puts some pressure on him, as he cannot use his divine sense.
After playing for a week, Wuming's body was taken back by him. She herself returned to a busy state of cultivation.
During this time, Xia Zhi discovered that hell exists in this world.
If he does not take the souls of the dead with him, their souls will go to hell.
However, it seems that there is no administrator in this hell, so some souls that have long since died can still appear in the human world.
Summer Solstice caught more than a dozen such souls, including two little guys named Tu and Makomo.
From their memories, Xia Zhi located Teng Xishan and decided to take action.
There are hundreds of demons in the Fujishiki Mountains. Although the number is not large, even a mosquito is still meat.
So, riding the Crimson Light Sword, he came to Mount Tengxi.
……
From Sabito and Makomo's memories, Natsumi learns that the selection process for a new batch of official Demon Slayer Corps members is currently underway.
Among them, Samurai and Makomo's junior apprentice, a boy named Kamado Tanjiro, also came to Fujikasane Mountain to participate in the selection.
Tengxi Mountain is a mountain surrounded by wisteria flowers, which bloom all year round.
Wisteria flowers contain a poison that is effective against ghosts. If a ghost trapped in the mountains tries to escape through a wisteria grove, it will be poisoned to death by the flowers.
The demons here don't know blood demon magic; they've only eaten two or three people. They were captured by the Demon Slayer Corps and deliberately thrown into the mountains.
The selection process for official members of the Demon Slayer Corps involves surviving for seven days in this mountain full of demons; those who survive become official members of the Demon Slayer Corps.
Those that die will become food for evil spirits.
Because they hadn't eaten for a long time, the evil spirits inside were in a state of extreme hunger, and they would go completely mad if they smelled human scent.
"This selection method is so similar to my demonic path. To defeat evil spirits, one must become even more evil than them?"
Xia Zhi sighed in the mountains, spreading the fragrance of his body to attract evil spirits.
"This is truly a practice that aligns with the values and beliefs of this nation!"
In the Fujikasa Mountains, the selection trials for official members of the Demon Slayer Corps have not yet begun.
However, many young men and women who had participated in the trials had already arrived at the foot of the mountain, waiting for the trials to begin.
Tanjiro Kamado, the green-clad boy who had just arrived, suddenly sniffed his nose and asked in confusion.
"What a strange smell. Amidst the rich fragrance of wisteria blossoms, there's a strong, sweet, fishy odor. What is that?"
Chapter 90: Arrogant
When Kamado Tanjiro smelled it, he found the smell strange.
But for the demons in Fujikasa Mountain who only get to taste meat once a year during the Demon Slayer Corps' official member selection, it's like someone who hasn't drunk water for a day and a night in the desert suddenly discovering an oasis with a sizable lake in it!
"Where is this fragrance coming from?"
What smells so good?
"It smells so good! It smells amazing!"
A large number of cannibalistic demons emerged from the caves and shady trees where they had been hiding.
Due to prolonged lack of food, they all entered a berserk state, with their IQ decreasing by 50 and their combat power increasing by 30.
These ghosts all had bloodshot eyes and bulging veins on their foreheads. They were inhaling the fragrance in the air with ecstasy, their hearts filled with joy!
"Has the Demon Slayer Corps selection begun?"
"Mine! This fragrance must be mine!"
"I want to eat! I want to eat!"
In the vine-covered mountains, numerous evil spirits suddenly charged like a pack of beasts!
From the sky, one could see man-eating demons emerging from all parts of Fujikasa Mountain, all rushing towards a certain direction.
Tonight, the Taisho and Demon Slayer Corps have a plan to defeat Enmu, one of the Lower Moons.
Nightmare's Blood Demon Art allows humans to have the beautiful dreams they want, which is the ability to customize dreams.
If you are poor and destitute, you will be rich in your dreams.
If you are lonely, you will have a happy family in your dreams.
If you're a pervert, then in your dreams you're the king of the red-light district.
In this situation, even knowing that Nightmare is a man-eating demon, many humans are still willing to do things for him, only hoping to immerse themselves in the dream afterward.
Such collusion between humans and cannibalistic demons is a major taboo, and such situations will be immediately targeted upon discovery.
However, at the same time, Zero, Kokushibo, and Akaza also have plans to attack human towns.
On the summer solstice, he would send out several clones to various places to collect the souls of those who died in battle.
"With another ten million blood offerings and souls, I can advance to the Nascent Soul stage. Although my foundation might be unstable, flesh-and-blood demonic cultivators are least afraid of an unstable foundation. Besides, I have the White Bone Foundation as a safety net. At worst, I can go into seclusion for a hundred years to stabilize my foundation."
Although the spiritual energy content of this world is very low, it is surprisingly a world with medium spiritual energy.
A lower-level spiritual world cannot possibly contain hell.
However, because this world is too close to the Type-Moon world, its spiritual energy has been largely absorbed by the other world, causing it to fall from a medium-level spiritual energy world to a low-level one.
Although the concentration of spiritual energy has decreased and the world consciousness has fallen into slumber, the foundation remains.
He was large enough to break through to the Nascent Soul stage by the summer solstice.
Grasping the bone sword that grew from her right arm, Xia Zhi grew two blood-red wings behind her, which fluttered gently in the night wind.
"After the Nascent Soul stage, we can try to recover from the injuries to our primordial spirit. This weakened state is truly terrifying to the demon, leaving him with no sense of security whatsoever."
In the dark forest, a young man with magnificent silver hair, a handsome and masculine appearance, and dressed in a snow-white robe with cloud patterns, quietly awaited the arrival of tonight's victims.
"coming."
Soon, hearing the rustling sound of the bushes being shoved through the woods, Xia Zhi suddenly swung the bone sword in his right hand.
puff!
Boom!
The three-foot-long sword pierced through the forehead of a demon, pinning him to a large tree.
"hateful!"
The demon reached out and grabbed the bone sword on its forehead, trying to pull it out.
Unexpectedly, the bone sword was incredibly sharp, and its blade easily sliced off the demon's finger as easily as cutting tofu.
"It smells so good! It smells so good!"
Despite having its finger cut off, the demon seemed completely unconcerned.
His eyes were fixed on Xia Zhi, his severed fingers grew back rapidly, and saliva flowed from his mouth like a waterfall.
Upon realizing he couldn't remove the sword from his head, the ghost, his face contorted with madness and intoxication, simply gave up trying to pull it out and strode forward.
If you can't draw the sword, then drawing your own sword won't hurt either.
As he advanced, blood, along with white brain matter, flowed out of the wound.
But for a ghost, this is just a minor injury.
Xia Zhi lightly touched the ground with her right foot, like a bird leaping forward, and arrived in front of this man-eating demon.
As the cannibalistic demon's expression shifted from surprise to terror, Xia Zhi's left blood-red wing suddenly swelled in size, transforming into a massive, fleshy hand.
The large hand tightly enveloped the ghost, turning it into a large cocoon of flesh and blood.
"Waaaaah! Waaaah!!"
From within the blood cocoon came the sounds of bones being chewed and bones being crushed, as well as the muffled screams of evil spirits.
In just a few breaths, the blood cocoon retracted on its own and transformed back into wings.
Xia Zhi pulled out the bone sword that had been stuck more than a foot into the tree trunk, twirled it, and drew a plum blossom in mid-air.
"Since I have nothing better to do, I'll keep you company for a bit."
There are quite a few evil spirits in the Fujikashi Mountain.
Just as one was defeated, two more evil spirits appeared simultaneously.
"mine!"
"its mine!"
These evil spirits from the old era, unlike the evil spirits of the new era, do not know how to unite and cooperate; instead, they rush to the summer solstice amidst all the noise.
However, upon seeing the pair of blood-red wings behind Xia Zhi, they all showed expressions of astonishment.
"Are you a ghost too?"
But soon, cruel and tyrannical expressions appeared on the faces of the two ghosts.
"Even if it's a ghost, we'll eat it!"
"It would be even better if you were a ghost! I could eat you many times over if I kept you!"
They clearly didn't realize one thing—a skilled hunter often appears as the prey.
Xia Zhi's state of mind was no longer affected by the two words of such a minor character.
Those he takes seriously are either strong individuals or disciples or useful subordinates.
The rest are all ants.
He channeled his magic into the bone sword and swung it twice at the two man-eating demons from a distance.
In the mountains and forests, invisible sword energy crisscrossed, disappearing in a flash!
The two evil spirits wanted to mock Xia Zhi for swinging his sword from a distance, but the next moment, their bodies split in two.
Fresh blood poured out of their bodies, their hearts, livers, spleens, lungs, kidneys, intestines, and stomachs scattered all over the ground.
Looking down at the disgusting mess scattered on the ground, Xia Zhi shook her head slightly and took away the souls of the two evil spirits.
"Forget it, we don't need these two piles of meat."
It highlights his arrogance.
More than thirty years have passed, and he is no longer the penniless demon who wouldn't even spare a single goblin corpse.
……
The two ghosts died here, and the smell of blood wafted out.
Many other ghosts smelled it.
Thinking that a ghost had gotten there first, their expressions twisted, they quickened their pace and arrived in front of Xia Zhi.
