Chinatsu and Doma stared at each other. Just as Chinatsu took a step forward to rush towards Doma, Doma, with a smile on his face, waved his golden iron fan first.
[Blood Demon Art - Mist Ice - Water Lily Bodhisattva]!
[Blood Demon Art: Frosty White Princess]!
[Blood Demon Art: Crystal Child]!
In just a moment, while the Xuanbing Bodhisattva summoned by Doma had not disintegrated, two more Xuanbing Bodhisattvas of the same size rose from the ground on either side of the giant Xuanbing Bodhisattva.
Beneath these three Xuanbing Bodhisattvas, several ice lotuses carved with the upper bodies of young girls and countless miniature versions of Doma appeared.
An army of ice appeared before Chika!
"Impressive, isn't it! I couldn't have done this before. I feel like even if Lord Kokushibo were to be resurrected at his peak, he wouldn't be a match for me now!"
As Douma spoke excitedly, he spread his arms wide, proudly displaying his current strength, as if to say that he was the most worthy of being called one of the Upper Moon demons.
He is very strong now, there is no doubt about that.
only…………
"It's not necessarily better than Kokushibo."
Chinatsu's words stirred up Doma's competitive spirit, and his smile disappeared, replaced by a serious expression.
"Oh~ then please give it a try!"
With a powerful swing of his golden iron fan, Douma unleashed a violent frost tornado that swept towards Chinatsu, while the ice army he had summoned also launched a coordinated attack.
The enormous Xuanbing Bodhisattva opened its mouth, and a large amount of ice crystals flew out of its mouth. While spitting out ice crystals, its hands were not idle either, slapping Qianxia's location repeatedly.
The ice lotuses, resembling young girls, were pure damage dealers; they opened their lips and released an extremely large area of frost and cold air.
As for the miniature version of Doma, he directly became a self-destructing infantryman, releasing icy spikes of cold air as he flew towards Chinatsu.
In an instant, the area where Chika was located was completely swallowed up by the crystal-clear ice crystals, forming an ice hell.
Looking at the icy hell formed by his own power, Doma had a cheerful expression on his face, because he believed that the outcome was already decided.
Even if his Blood Demon Art's ice-based creations didn't inflict a fatal wound on Chika, it wouldn't matter. As long as she was breathing, she would inhale the floating ice crystals, damaging her lungs. And if she stopped breathing, a swordsman like her was still just a human, unable to escape this place...
Huh? Wait a minute? A human body?
Doma's smile vanished abruptly. Although he had already learned that Chinatsu was a demon, he still subconsciously switched to his usual attack mode when dealing with Demon Slayer Corps swordsmen the moment he saw her.
The next moment, Doma's smile didn't just froze; it completely vanished.
Suddenly, a sword aura flashed out from the gradually silent Ice Hell. Before Douma could react, the sword aura slashed open his neck, leaving a terrifying wound.
Because this wound was only a few centimeters away from completely severing his neck, it was as if Doma had just walked back and forth across the gates of death.
"Sword energy? That far? Wait... why hasn't this wound healed yet? And... it hurts so much!"
Doma immediately stretched out a hand to cover his neck, which was almost cut open. A burning pain came from the wound on his neck. His regenerative ability, which he was originally proud of, seemed to have failed at this moment, which made his head, which was supported by his neck, sway precariously.
What just happened?!
As Doma clutched his neck, a question arose in his mind, but almost instantly he understood half the answer to the question he had raised.
That sword energy that just hit my neck... it seems to be Lord Kokushibo's ability?
Lord Kokushibo... he's been resurrected?
Doma stared in horror at his gradually fading ice hell, where he saw Chinatsu standing almost unharmed.
While Doma's ice crystals could certainly destroy an ordinary person's lungs, was Chinatsu an ordinary person? She was an ultimate being that even her boss envied.
Even though Chinatsu's regeneration speed is not as fast as Muzan's, who has studied the way of demons for thousands of years, it is still perfectly capable of keeping up with the speed at which Doma's ice crystals are destroying his lungs.
If Chinatsu had a health bar above her head, then Douma would be surprised to find that Chinatsu's health bar was jumping back and forth wildly, and it was far from enough to completely destroy Chinatsu's lungs and prevent her from using breathing techniques.
Chinatsu was practicing Total Concentration Breathing without restraint in Doma's Ice Hell, but it wasn't Hinokami Kagura or Water Breathing, but rather...
"Breathing of the Moon - Eighth Form - Moon Dragon Tail!"
Chinatsu gripped the crimson sword tightly with both hands and swept it horizontally with an exaggerated amplitude. A huge arc-shaped sword aura rushed towards Doma, and countless crescent-shaped sword auras were mixed in with this arc-shaped sword aura.
If Doma was only wondering about Chinatsu's attack moves before, now that Chinatsu has unleashed this strike, Doma is 1000% certain that this is Kokushibo's ability.
Why would she know Lord Black Death's moves?!
Seeing the Moon Breathing Sword Qi rapidly approaching him, Doma's pupils widened, and he hurriedly raised his golden iron fan to adjust the position of a Xuanbing Bodhisattva in front of him.
The Moon-Summoning Sword Qi struck the Xuanbing Bodhisattva, and a deafening explosion rang out.
The ice sculpture of the Bodhisattva was instantly cleaved in two, and the crescent-shaped sword energy that followed completely shattered it into countless ice fragments that rolled to the ground.
Chinatsu remained unfazed. After using the "Eighth Form," she was already preparing for her next sword technique. When Doma's Genpyo Bosom was shattered by her own "Eighth Form," her next sword technique was already complete.
Doma can mass-produce ice creations "for free," but Chinatsu's sword energy is certainly not something that "costs money."
"Breath of the Moon - Land Form - Everlasting Night, Lonely Moon - Abyss!"
The next moment, a sky full of Moon Breathing Sword Qi rushed towards Doma. Doma had just breathed a sigh of relief after blocking Chinatsu's attack, but when he saw the sky full of Moon Breathing Sword Qi, his smiling face gradually froze.
"No... this can't be right..."
