Chapter 99

Mount Untori is located within the jurisdiction of Saitama Prefecture and is inaccessible. However, due to geographical factors, the town of Chichibu at the foot of the mountain prospered rapidly following the development of Kyoto after the Meiji Restoration. It is related to sericulture, silk reeling, and other silk products. Based on the industry, according to this momentum, it may be able to rise from a town to a city in the future.

In a small courtyard full of wisteria flowers.

"Lord Mirror!"

A Demon Slayer Swordsman handed the pamphlet to Ming Jing respectfully.

Not to mention that almost everyone knows that Ming Jing will soon become the next pillar. Based on Ming Jing's current status as a Grade A swordsman, it is higher than these ordinary swordsmen.

[In December of the first year of Taisho, the Japanese swordsman Maruta Nianhiro was slaying ghosts here. There were traces of the battle at the scene of his disappearance. 】

[In the same month, Level [-] swordsman Akiba Zuoji came here to investigate for the second time, but to no avail. He disappeared in Saitama Prefecture a month later, leaving traces of battle at the scene. 】

[In February of the second year of Taisho, Murakami Takeji, a second-class swordsman, disappeared in Yamanashi Prefecture, leaving traces of battle at the scene. 】

[In March of the second year of Taisho, the first-class swordsman Jiichiro Hirakawa traced the traces of ghosts all the way to Mount Untori. He was defeated and killed. It was suspected that the twelve ghost moons with activities centered on Mount Untori were haunted. 】

……

March, what happened in this month, was able to kill a Grade A swordsman, no wonder he was considered one of the Twelve Ghost Moons.

Further down, there is some more specific information, such as a more accurate time range of the disappearance and a more precise location.

"Is there any other news? Since there are ghosts, these ghosts must eat people. If there is information about other ordinary people encountering ghosts, the location of the ghosts can be further determined."

Ming Jing closed the book and asked the Demon Slayer swordsman in front of him.

"Mr. Hirakawa has also pursued this information, so we have also collected missing persons cases around here in the past year, which are on the back pages of that booklet."

Ming Jing opened the booklet again, turned to the last two pages and started reading.

The records here are very detailed, including the age, gender and family status of each missing person.

"Are they all adult men..."

Ming Jing raised his eyebrows.

There are two of these ghosts, and they all have weird quirks. Some only eat women, and some only eat children. However, women are generally not excluded. For those ghosts, young girls are their favorite.

But it just so happens that there is one person among the twelve ghost moons who will not attack women, and that is the third of the upper string, Yiwo constellation.

If it's this guy, it shouldn't be difficult to lure him out.

Because this guy is a guy who pursues the pinnacle of martial arts. As long as he is a strong man, he can sense the fighting spirit exuded by powerful creatures through his blood ghost technique and come to challenge him.

He only needs to show up a few more times in the places where the previous Demon Slayer Swordsmen have disappeared, and Yiwozao will definitely lose his temper and come looking for him.

If it was really this third person, Ming Jing would really like to use him to measure his own strength.

"I probably know it, and I will investigate further in the future."

Ming Jing nodded slightly and handed the book back to the swordsman.

It was not easy for him. He was still a newcomer. His relationship with the Grade-A swordsman Jiichiro Hirakawa who died in the battle was similar to Mitsuri Kanroji and Anjuro, who was still a Grade-A swordsman at the time. They learned their breathing techniques from each other. , he was just starting out but had the misfortune to meet the Twelve Ghost Moons, one of the three strongest among the Twelve Ghost Moons.

……

……

a few days later.

Chichibu Town, evening, the sun has set.

on the street.

Ming Jing held a basket of steamed buns he had just bought in his hand, and while eating, he walked to a remote bamboo forest on the edge of the town.He has been practicing swordsmanship in this bamboo forest recently.

From Yi Wo Zuo's point of view, everyone in this world has fighting spirit, unless they are babies with pure hearts. The stronger the person, the stronger the fighting spirit is.

In Der Spiegel's view, this so-called fighting spirit should be related to a person's will, momentum and other mental aspects. Just like when a person punches in a fight, you must first want to punch a certain part of the enemy, and then you will The signal is sent to the body through the nerves, allowing the hand to throw the punch.

If you can achieve a high degree of unity between fist and intention, and achieve a high degree of unity between the generation of thoughts and the swing of the fist, you will be considered a rare master in physical skills. However, no matter how fast you swing your fist, it will still be slower than your own. will.

Even subconscious muscle memory works the same way.

It takes time for nerves to transmit signals.

Only by mastering the transparent world can we naturally put away the fighting spirit released to the outside world.

Perhaps it was because Yi Wozuo could not sense the fighting spirit in the body of one of the top stringers, the Black Death Eye, that he continued to pursue this as the highest state of fighting spirit.

Ming Jing practices his sword in the bamboo forest in order to release his fighting spirit as much as possible to attract Yi Wo Zuo.

Anyone with strong fighting spirit will be challenged by Yi Wo Zuo if discovered.

"The steamed buns taste pretty good, but I feel like they're a bit oily and watery. I might try the one next door next time."

Ming Jing bit off the bun and muttered vaguely.

"Hey! If you want to fight, you don't mind waiting for me to finish the last bun, right?"

Ming Jing took out the last bun and said to a man with dark blue tattoos all over his body who appeared in the bamboo forest at some unknown time.

The person who came was none other than Yiwo Zuo.

It is estimated that as soon as the sun went down, he was already waiting for the mirror.

"The fighting spirit in you is very different from others, but it's very strong. It's so strong that even among the pillars I've fought against, there aren't many that can beat you in terms of fighting spirit. I like it very much."

An evil smile appeared on Yiwozuo's face, and he looked at the mirror with a satisfied expression.

"Say your name, you should be worthy of being remembered by me!"

"Hiccup~Uchiha Mirror."

Ming Jing swallowed the last bite of the bun and burped.

"Very good! Uchiha Mirror, remember, the person who killed you is Yiwozao!"

As soon as the words fell, Yiwozuo's feet erupted at a speed that was difficult to detect with the naked eye, and he punched Ming Jing with a punch.

And the bright mirror with the three magatama Sharingan can naturally clearly capture the movements of Yiwozao.

"The Breath of the Sun, the Type of Two, and the Sky of Blue Luo!"

The Sun Sword instantly unsheathed, drew a perfect arc, and split Yiwozuo's arm open with one strike.

"This kind of power!"

Yiwozuo's pupils suddenly shrank, he stopped his forward momentum and quickly retreated.

He could feel that after being slashed by this swordsman, his regeneration speed, which was far superior to that of other ghosts, was greatly reduced.

"Is it because of the breathing method?"

Although the Breath of the Sun and the Breath of the Flame are very similar, from the perspective of a Yiwozu martial arts master, one can naturally see the difference.
