Yu Zhongjin politely declined, and then added: "But if it's about slaying a demon, I will definitely help you in the name of God."
"Joining the Demon Slayer Corps and respecting me as the lord are not the same thing. The Demon Slayer Corps was established to slay evil demons, and I am just an ordinary person who happens to maintain this organization."
Ubuyashiki Yoshiya's voice was calm and gentle, and he continued: "If you don't mind, please take on the title of 'Pillar'. The Demon Slayer Corps will provide you with all the help you need."
In this war that has been going on for a thousand years between humans and demons, Ubuyashiki Yoya must strive for all the fighting power he can in order to compete with the Demon King Muzan.
"Since you have such a gracious invitation, I am afraid I have no reason to refuse."
Yuzenjin doesn't mind joining the Demon Slayer Corps. With the Demon Slayer Corps' intelligence network, he will be able to find and eliminate more demons, which will be of great help to the mission.
In addition, it is more portable.
"Xingming, there are some things I want to discuss with this witch lady alone."
Ubuyashiki Yoya signaled Beimeijima Gyomei to leave first.
Beimingyu Xingming stood up and walked out of the living room with heavy steps.
"Come to think of it, I haven't introduced myself yet. That's really rude."
Ubuyashiki Yoya then looked at Ootenzu and continued, "My name is Ubuyashiki Yoya, the head of the Ubuyashiki clan. I have learned your name from Gyoumei. You are Ootenzu, a miko from Inari Shrine."
"That way, it would be much more convenient for me."
Yuzhongjin skipped her self-introduction.
"Since you have decided to take on the title of 'Pillar', there are some things you should know. This is the shame and sin of our Ubuyashiki clan for thousands of years."
Ubuyashiki Yoya suddenly asked: "Do you know why ghosts are born?"
"..."
Mizoe Tsutomu did not speak, but waited for Ubuyashiki Yoya's answer.
Even though she knew everything, if she told it out loud, it would cause trouble later on.
"This is a secret that only our clan knows."
Ubuyashiki Yoya tells the truth: "The first demon was originally a human being, his name was Muzan, Kibutsuji Muzan."
"Although his last name is Muzan, his mother was born in the Ubuyashiki clan. The first demon, the demon king Muzan, is also a member of our clan."
"Thousands of years ago, Muzan became a demon for unknown reasons, and my Ubuyashiki clan has been cursed with sin ever since. My ancestors were born weak and prone to dying young. This is God's punishment for my clan's great sin."
"Later, with the help of the priests, I married their rare blood, which suppressed the curse a little. But even so, my clan could not survive past the age of thirty. The curse appeared when I was twelve years old, and it would erode my body step by step until it was completely destroyed."
Having said this, Ubuyashiki Yoya covered the scar on his forehead.
That is what happens after being cursed.
"Generally speaking, curses can be lifted."
Yuzenjin felt the power of the curse in Ubuyashiki Yoshiya's body, which came from the pollution of his blood.
Even with the dilution and resistance provided by thin blood, the effect is not satisfactory.
However, in Yuzhongjin's opinion, as long as it is a curse, there are several solutions.
The most direct and fundamental way to eradicate it is...
"Yes, a thousand years ago, the priests said that as long as the demon king Muzan is killed, the curse will disappear."
Ubuyashiki Yoya said: "However, the reason why our clan has been maintained until now is not just to lift the curse. If we want our descendants to no longer suffer from this, we can choose to sever our lineage. However, the mistakes of the past must have an end."
"Like the Demon King Muzan, the Demon Slayer Corps also has a history of a thousand years, but in the beginning, our power was far weaker than that of the demons."
"Demons transcend the limits of humans. Our ancestors could only rely on their perseverance and character. The rampant demons caused countless bloody fears. There were also countless people who joined the Demon Slayer Corps out of hatred. We relied on numbers and inferior swordsmanship to fight the demons again and again."
"Those were the darkest days, which lasted for more than five hundred years until the Warring States Period, when a human appeared and changed the situation like the sun."
"His name is Tsugikoku Yoriichi, the strongest swordsman and the founder of the breathing method. He taught the members of the Demon Slayer Corps the breathing method and changed the attribute structure of the breathing method according to their habits and personalities, giving us an advantage in the battle against demons."
"That's why the Demon King Muzan created the Twelve Demon Moons to fight against us."
"It's a pity that the swordsman was still a human after all, and died at the end of his life. The Demon King Muzan also launched a bloody war to cleanse all humans who were related to the 'Breath of the Sun' used by the swordsman."
"After that, until now, we have been at a disadvantage against the ghosts again."
……
Yuichi Tsugumi, born with markings, can see through the world.
He can be said to be the strongest swordsman during the Warring States Period.
This setting is the same as Kikyo, the strongest priestess in the Warring States Period.
Among millions of people, there will always be one or two exceptions who will change the world.
Men with natural psychic powers?
Born with extraordinary talents and powers.
You can learn all the moves just by watching.
Miotenzu had a basic judgment of Tsugumi Kuniichi, and then looked at Ubuyashiki Yoshiya, always feeling that the latter had something to say.
"Just like the swordsman back then, hundreds of years later, I encountered another special case."
The Ubuyashiki is so glorious. I looked back at the imperial feast.
“How come you see?”
Yuzhong Jin vaguely realized who the other party was talking about.
"The power of ghosts is not only beyond the physical functions of ordinary people, but also has a terrifying recovery ability. They are afraid of sunlight, so we found minerals that absorb sunlight energy and forged the Sun Blade with it. Only by chopping off the ghost's head with this sword can we truly kill it. But you didn't use the Sun Blade, but that lower-rank ghost was indeed killed by you. Xingming will not lie to me, and he will not make a mistake in his perception."
After saying that, Ubuyashiki Yoya moved back a short distance, placed his hands on the tatami in front of him, bowed down to the ground, and said solemnly: "Please teach us the method to exorcise the demon!"
Such a broad mind and an adaptable heart.
At that moment, Yu Zhuanjin also felt the other person's personal charm.
"I have no reason to refuse..."
This is the only thing Mizotsu can say to Ubuyashiki Yoya.
But this request itself is not a difficult task.
……
Joined the Demon Slayer Corps and became a non-staff pillar outside the nine pillars.
After all, Yuzhongjin doesn't use breathing techniques, so it's hard to think of a prefix of "Pillar", so just call him Pillar level.
In order to fulfill his promise to Ubuyashiki Yoshiya, Mitsukoshi must first understand the ability of breathing techniques.
"So, do you want to spar with me first?"
After hearing what Yuzhongjin said, Beimingyu Xingming couldn't help shedding two lines of tears. He bowed with one hand and said, "Such a generous and kind-hearted priestess really deserves our respect."
Although he knew the situation of Xingming on Beiming Island, Yuzhuanjin still couldn't help feeling ashamed.
"Then just wait and see. I won't show mercy."
Beiming Island Gyomei immediately became alert, and then took out his weapon, but it was not the Nichirin Sword that Ubuyashiki Yoya mentioned.
Because the power of Rock Pillar Gyoumei is too strong, ordinary Nichirin swords cannot even withstand his grip, so craftsmen were asked to specially create a large number of meteor hammers and chain axes made of Yang steel.
The breathing frequency began to change, and the khaki attribute power covered the meteor hammer.
——Breath of Rock.
Type 1: Serpentinite: Bipolar!
Beimingyu Xingming quickly threw out the meteor hammer and broad axe, attacking at the same time. Such a fierce attack made Yuzhuanjin shocked.
It seemed as if the space was rippling, and the heavy force was visible to the naked eye.
疾！
Yu Zhuanjin dodged immediately. At this moment, he could not defend himself with "Shield Guard". The pressure was very deep, although not as terrifying as the Yin Jiao he faced before.
Boom!
The meteor hammer created a big hole in the ground.
Breath of Rock.
Type 4: Rhyolite: Quick Expedition!
Turning the chains, Grievous Island Xingming spun quickly and swung the broadaxe and meteor hammer for a double attack.
Heavy, strong, and fast!
——Instant step!
Yu Zhuanjin quickly retreated to the back. She was observing the flow of the power in Beimingyu Xingming's body.
With the continuous mobilization of breathing techniques, Beimingyu Xingming's power is also constantly increasing.
It's just that something's wrong.
The power in the body can be mobilized by adjusting the breath, but this power is not magic power or spiritual power, but vitality.
By forcibly extracting vitality to gain super-human strength, this behavior can indeed gain strong combat power in the early stages, but once entering middle age, it will begin to fade, and the lack of vitality will only lead to a decline in combat power.
Moreover, humans who use the breathing method generally cannot live long. Even if there are occasionally people in their seventies or eighties, it is only because the vitality they have trained in their early years has not been depleted. If they do not use the breathing method, they can still live for another twenty or thirty years according to their physical condition.
The art of burning vitality...
"That's it."
Yuzhong Jin raised his hand to announce a ceasefire, and Beimingyu Xingming began to regulate his breathing.
Tsugikuni Yoriichi's ability is not applicable to everyone. It is a special case that only appears once every few hundred years. His physique and soul are very different from those of ordinary people.
Maybe it's a matter of traits.
For example, Chun's "evil omen" destined her to be able to make good use of curses, but others can only stay away from it, as they will suffer backlash if they are not careful.
The breathing method has side effects, and only Yoriichi Tsugakuin is completely immune to this side effect.
Therefore, Tsugumi Yoshiichi, who taught the breathing method, may not have been aware of this disadvantage, or he knew it and had said it, but the "pillars" of the Demon Slayer Corps who were in urgent need of strength chose to ignore that side effect.
If you can't even repel ghosts, your life may be even shorter.
Although Yuzhongjin wanted to teach more powerful skills such as "spells", this ability that required accumulation of experience could not be acquired quickly, and it would take at least several years to get started.
It was all over by then.
Yu Zhuanjin could only use the breathing method itself as the basis and then improve it, so he began to write, breaking down the steps of practicing magic power.
This practice can be integrated into breathing techniques.
Indirectly offset the side effect.
Tsugumi Yoshikazu is a genius, but he is just a human being after all. Even if it is Abe Haruaki, he would probably not be able to achieve the title of great Onmyoji without a teacher.
Yuzhongjin has the final experience summarized by countless Yamabushi sorcerers after hundreds and thousands of years. Just taking out a part of it is enough to guide the development process of the entire world.
It's like showing off the Panther tank during World War I.
But they can only produce this level of special equipment. If it comes to more advanced intercontinental missiles and nuclear weapons, no one can manufacture them even if they are available.
In other words, it will take several years to complete the technological progress and reach the standard basis.
……
Ps1: I only said to take a break, I didn’t say not to update.
Ps2: A special setting picture of Kikyo has been added in the related content of the work.
Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba Volume 153 (Part 4): Chapter Chapter Lower Rank Five [K]
……
This manuscript was given by Ooten to Ubuyashiki Yoya, but the head of the family knew nothing about fighting, and in the end it was taken over by Meijima Gyomei.
Having said that…
“…Can you see it?”
Yu Zhuanjin was very sad.
