It's really hard to describe Chika's current state, but one thing is certain: Zang Potian is no longer an opponent who can stop her.
As Qianxia thought this, she turned her head slightly and glanced at Zeng Potian not far behind her. Zeng Potian, who was being stared at, couldn't help but tremble, cold sweat poured down his face, and his body entered an extremely unusual state of alertness.
Am I... afraid of this woman?
It wasn't because there were many of them, but simply because they were afraid of this one woman!
Even Zeng Potian himself couldn't believe his current state. He swallowed hard and took a deep breath, ready to unleash the "Raging Pressure Wave" as soon as Qianxia got close.
But just as Zang Potian was nervously shedding tears, Qianxia's face, which was looking at Zang Potian, revealed a contemptuous expression. After a faint smile, she even turned her head back and continued to look in the direction where the Half-Heaven Dog's true form was.
What does this mean? Is this a sign of looking down on me?
Mere humans!!!
Zeng Potian's face was contorted with bulging veins, and he pounded the drumstick in his hand on the taiko drum as if he wanted to smash it to pieces.
Thump!!
A drumbeat even louder than before rang out, and Mili and the others tensed up. The next moment, a wooden dragon several sizes larger than a regular wooden dragon rose from the ground, its ferocious maw opening wide as it charged toward Qianxia.
"Go get him..."
Whoosh!
A flash of flame in Zeng Potian's eyes obscured his vision. As the flames disappeared, the wooden dragon he had just summoned was vertically cleaved in two and crashed heavily to the ground.
All of this happened so suddenly, so unbelievably. Zang Potian stared blankly at his wooden dragon, which had been cut in two, and fell into silence.
Did this woman possess such formidable strength from the very beginning?
Impossible, absolutely impossible!
If she truly possessed such strength from the beginning, she could have defeated me in an instant, or even... I wouldn't have had a chance to even appear!
But if she didn't have such strength in the first place, what did she do during the time she stayed in one place, and why did such a huge change occur?
Zeng Potian gritted his teeth and didn't dare to move, while Qianxia calmly said to Mili and the others on her side, "This ghost is just an avatar. I've found the location of the main body. You guys keep dealing with him for a while, and I'll go and take care of the main body right away."
Upon hearing this, Mitsuri suddenly realized that the reason Chika hadn't moved earlier was because she was looking for the location of the main demon. Although she didn't know how Chika did it... well, that's amazing!
Mitsuri took a step and stood between Chinatsu and Souhaten, holding her Nichirin Blade and smiling confidently, saying, "Chinatsu, you go ahead, leave this to us!"
After Mitsuri finished speaking, Nezuko and Genya beside her nodded and stepped forward. Chinatsu's actions greatly boosted their morale. Genya even felt his appetite increase, as he could take several more big bites of the wood chips from the Avici Tree.
Chika nodded with satisfaction, then turned her attention back to the Half-Heaven Dog's true form, which was still on its escape route.
500 meters...600 meters...700 meters...
They run pretty fast. In that case, let's try that trick.
She lowered her stance slightly, concentrating her power in her legs, and recalled Zenitsu's instructions to Tanjiro in the original work, regarding the technique of Thunder Breathing's first form, "Thunderbolt Flash".
"Thunder Breathing is the breathing technique that focuses most on the legs. We don't really understand our own anatomy or the shape of each muscle. My grandfather, who trained me, once said, 'Only by knowing yourself can you achieve true total concentration.'"
Concentrate your mind on your legs, directing your concentrated breath towards every muscle fiber and every blood vessel, allowing the breathing technique to perfectly match and resonate with the muscle contraction and relaxation, building up power before unleashing it in one breath.
The technique of Thunder Breathing was not "difficult" for Chika at this moment. The whole process was natural and she mastered and applied it instantly.
"Hinokami Kagura: Round Dance Flash!"
The sound of lightning and thunder and the roar of flames resounded together. In the blink of an eye, Chika had disappeared from the battlefield between Miri and Zang Potian and rushed swiftly towards the true form of the Half-Heaven Dog, who was running around in a mess in a corner of the forest.
The Half-Heaven Dog's true form is extremely small, like a doll, and it is also very good at concealing its aura. At this moment, its small body is running on the ground. Although it has already run a long distance, its heart cannot calm down and instead becomes more and more panicked.
"Lord Muzan, Lord Muzan, you're not really giving up on me, are you? I've served you for so long, I've done my part, even if I haven't done anything great! Can't you send someone like Lord Doma to help me out?!"
Hantengu kept calling out Muzan's name in his heart, but this time he wasn't as lucky as before. Muzan didn't answer his "calls" at all, as if he had put him on a blacklist. A sense of despair welled up in Hantengu's heart.
Jade Pot! You've really put me in a terrible situation!!!
Hantengu dared not direct his hatred at Muzan, so he could only transfer all his hatred, with interest, to Gyokko.
If Gyokko hadn't found the sword-forging village, and if Gyokko hadn't suddenly brought this up during the Upper Moon meeting, then Lord Muzan wouldn't have made me come with Gyokko, and I wouldn't be in such a sorry state.
That's right! It's all Yu Hu's fault!
And those human swordsmen...
"Thirty years east of the river, thirty years west of the river; I, Half-Heaven Dog, will definitely avenge this humiliation!!!"
As Bantiangou was thinking this, suddenly, a roaring sound mixed with flames and thunder came from a distance behind him.
Hantengu subconsciously turned his head to look behind him, and in that instant, he saw a terrifying scene that he would tremble with fear whenever he thought about it after he went to hell.
One second ago, there was no one around.
In that instant, Chika, wielding the crimson blade, suddenly appeared behind him like a demon god, her crimson blade already swung out and only centimeters away from his neck.
"Don't bully..."
Whoosh!
The super-defense-breaking combo of the Crimson Blade and the God of Fire, Kagura, struck Hantengu's neck squarely. With a smooth horizontal slash, Hantengu's head was severed and sent flying, leaving a rather tragic arc in the air.
Chika came to a steady stop, and with a flick of her wrist, she swung the Crimson Blade to the ground, splattering a small amount of Hantengu's blood onto the ground.
She turned to look at the bewildered half-headed dog who had rolled to the ground from the air, and said to him indifferently, "You're not getting any flashback scenes, so hurry up and go to hell."
