In another battle zone where Yu Hu was fighting, Zeng Potian was still making a lot of noise and banging.
Thump! Thump! Thump!
As the sound of drums rang out, one wooden dragon after another rose from the ground. Some of them did not charge directly at Qianxia but cleverly coordinated with each other.
The wooden dragons opened their mouths, and some of them emitted powerful sonic waves, while others emitted blinding lightning.
Fortunately, these things weren't particularly difficult to handle. Mitsuri tensed all her muscles, showcasing her talent of having eight times the muscle density to the fullest.
Her eight times the muscle density gave her not only strength, but more importantly, increased muscle hardness after flexing her muscles. Even if those sound waves and lightning hit her at close range, they might not be able to break through her physical defenses, let alone these ranged attacks.
Nezuko and Genya Shinazugawa, standing to the side, were also fighting with all their might.
Nezuko immediately entered her demon form, instantly boosting her strength to a level above that of Daki. Her "Exploding Blood!" technique ignited the oncoming wooden dragon.
Genya Shinazugawa, on the other hand, was firing wildly with a musket in one hand and a Nichirin Blade in the other. However, although his musket bullets were incredibly powerful, they were very precious and could not be wasted.
His Nichirin Blade's output was extremely low because he didn't know any breathing techniques. Without the support of breathing techniques, the Nichirin Blade was at most just a slightly sharp ordinary knife to the demons. Even if Zōhaten asked Genya to cut his own neck, Genya couldn't cut it.
However, Genmi also has a special ability that makes up for his poor physical condition due to his inability to use breathing techniques.
[Ghost transformation]!
Faced with the remains of the wooden dragon that Miri had chopped down, Xuanmi opened his mouth and began to gnaw on the "Wujian Karma Tree" with his good teeth.
With a "glug!" sound, he swallowed a mouthful of wood chips.
In Demon Slayer, there are five exceptionally gifted individuals, each corresponding to one of the five senses.
Tanjiro: Smell.
Inosuke: Touch.
Kanao: Visual.
Shan Yi: hearing.
Xuanmi: sense of taste.
With his excellent teeth and a special taste consumption system, Genya is able to devour the flesh and blood of demons, thereby temporarily transforming into a demon and gaining some of the demon's abilities!
Genmi's pupils contracted, revealing sharp demonic fangs. Veins bulged on his face, and his physical attributes increased exponentially.
Genya's move startled his teammates Mitsuri and Nezuko.
"Oh no!!! What's wrong with you?!"
Mitsuri stared in disbelief at Genya, while Nezuko's eyes also turned into beady pupils as she looked at Genya.
Genmi didn't explain; he simply demonstrated his stance through his actions.
He charged straight at Zeng Potian with his unblemished Nichirin Blade in hand, instantly transforming into a furious berserker, which startled Zeng Potian.
Who are these people?
First there was the muscular woman who looked strange, then there was the ghost who helped humans despite being a ghost, and now there's this oddball who was just a human but suddenly turned into a ghost and just barged in.
Zang Potian gritted his teeth, wondering why he had to suffer like this.
Despicable! Despicable! Despicable!
It's all that Yu Hu's fault. Right now, that guy is still carefree and playing with humans, isn't he? At worst, he'll only run into the two humans who ran away from us, which is one against two. We're facing three against one, and there's also a time bomb that's AFK and doing who-knows-what!
Thump! Thump! Thump!
Zeng Potian continued to beat the drum behind him. He was getting impatient. There was still an hour until dawn. If he couldn't finish it within an hour, he would be burned to ashes by the sun.
Although he was just a clone, he still had self-awareness. Being exposed to the sun was very painful, and he didn't want to endure that kind of suffering.
"Die!!!"
Zang Potian continued to increase the speed of drumming. Although he could not suppress Mitsuri and the others in a short time, the stamina of demons far exceeded that of humans. Even Mitsuri, who had activated her mark, could be dragged down by Zang Potian. Not to mention Mitsuri, who had not activated her mark.
If it weren't for Genya Shinazugawa and Nezuko being strong enough, Zōhaten would have won long ago. Of course, this is on the premise that Chika doesn't slack off. If she had joined forces with Mitsuri and the others, Zōhaten would have been crushed underfoot long ago.
Time passed second by second, and Mitsuri's strength gradually began to wane. Shinazugawa Genya's demon transformation could not be maintained indefinitely. Although Nezuko's strength was still abundant, the decline in Mitsuri and Genya's condition could not be compensated for by her alone.
"Chance!"
Thump!
A wooden dragon successfully bypassed Mitsuri and the others' defenses and arrived behind them, specifically behind Chinatsu.
"Take care of one first!"
Zeng Potian raised his head slightly. He could already sense that Mi Li and the others were starting to falter. If he eliminated one more person under these circumstances, Mi Li and the others' momentum would definitely drop significantly, making it much easier to eliminate them.
Zang Potian had a wonderful plan, and the wooden dragon rushed swiftly towards Qianxia.
"Oh no! Chinatsu!"
Realizing what was happening, Mitsuri turned around and saw a wooden dragon coming from behind her, her face showing a look of panic.
Just as the wooden dragon opened its mouth to tear Chika's belly apart, Chika, who had been keeping her eyes closed, opened them, turned around, and swung her sword.
"Hinokami Kagura: Flame Dance".
In an instant, two flashes of fire appeared.
The ferocious wooden dragon was cleaved into four pieces in a cross shape, stirring up clouds of dust.
Chika stood amidst the four sections of the wooden dragon's remains, enveloped in dust and mist. She turned calmly to face the direction of Sohaten, and the Nichirin Blade in her hand instantly transformed into a crimson blade of the same style as the one used by Yoriichi Tsugikuni.
She feels great right now, exceptionally good.
After giving up the option of entering the "Transparent World" of selflessness, Chika chose another realm and another path that was the opposite of it.
Sight, hearing, touch, smell, and taste.
These are the five senses, and further subdivisions can be made into various subtle senses.
With Chika choosing this path and working hard, everything fell into place naturally without any obstacles.
While attempting to develop towards a "transparent world," those unruly and disruptive senses are surprisingly obedient at this moment, allowing Chinatsu to command them at will.
The sense of incongruity disappeared.
By not abandoning any of her senses and elevating them all to their limits, and upon reaching the goal envisioned by Chika, Chika saw a new world completely different from the "Transparent World".
This is a very free world, allowing Chinatsu to roam freely within it, as if the entire world revolves around her. Everything in all directions is transformed into cheap information, which Chinatsu continuously captures.
In just a few breaths, Chika clearly sensed and locked onto the true form of the half-tengu that was hidden in a corner of the forest.
"I've found you."
