Chapter 92 Blood Demon Art: Killing Eye Cage
Chapter 92 Blood Demon Art: Killing Eye Cage
Rui's pupils contracted sharply, and he stared at Tanjiro in disbelief. He had completely underestimated Tanjiro's recovery ability.
They never expected that their opponent could unleash such terrifying power.
He subconsciously looked down at his severed arm, a burning pain spreading along the wound, and the blood at the cut was constantly dissipating as it sizzled and burned.
What's going on? What did he do? Why is my healing ability slowing down? Is this the power of his Blood Demon Art?
A storm raged through my heart, and the burning sensation at the severed limb grew stronger. It was a self-healing heat that could suppress the demon, a heat that penetrated deep into my bones.
He suddenly looked up at Tanjiro, his body trembling uncontrollably, and panic appeared in his scarlet eyes for the first time.
[I'm scared? Impossible! I'm Lower Moon Five, how could I be afraid of a demon...]
Despite his exhaustion, he gritted his teeth and pushed his body to recover, and his severed arm healed at a speed visible to the naked eye.
However, a burn scar remained on the healed arm.
Nezuko, who was standing to the side, propped herself up on the ground, her eyes fixed on Tanjiro. When she heard the name of the technique he mentioned, she was shocked and her eyes were filled with astonishment.
[The Fire God's Kagura? The Kagura dance? Isn't that the dance our father passed down to my brother, used to worship the Fire God?]
Childhood memories flooded my mind instantly, including the first time my older brother performed the Kagura dance completely when I was little.
She clapped and cheered at the gate of the courtyard, and her father smiled and patted her head, saying that the Kagura dance was a tradition of the Kamado family.
Could it be that...?
Midouzi's heart surged. The sacrificial dance steps she had seen countless times since childhood replayed in her mind again and again, as if she had grasped some key point.
Tanjiro had already assumed a fighting stance, his Nichirin Blade raised high above his head, the crimson and gold flames burning even more intensely.
[Father, I'm sorry, I almost forgot the Kamado family tradition. Thank you for allowing me to inherit the Kagura dance, which gives me the ability to protect Nezuko.]
He silently recited the words in his heart, his gaze first falling on Mi Douzi, full of concern and certainty.
He then abruptly turned to Lei, his blood-red eyes filled with nothing but killing intent.
"call--!"
A piercing yet steady breathing sound exploded from Tanjiro's mouth as the raging flames of the Blood Demon Art merged completely with the power of the Hinokami Kagura.
His figure transformed into a long dragon of red and gold flames, rushing towards Lei at lightning speed. The vegetation along the way was ignited by the heat wave, and the ground was scorched by his trampling.
Lei reacted extremely quickly, instantly suppressing the panic in his eyes, his fingertips flying across the keyboard.
"Blood Demon Art: Engraved Line Prison!"
Countless black threads surged again, rushing towards Tanjiro like a tidal wave, attempting to replicate the technique that had previously trapped Nezuko, and firmly imprison him.
But this time, Tanjiro swung his Nichirin Blade, which was wrapped in red and gold flames, and the moment the blade fell...
The once indestructible spider web was easily severed, black smoke rising from the cut, before turning to ashes in an instant.
"What?!"
Exhausted, he cried out in surprise, his feet retreating rapidly, his face filled with shock.
What is this? This isn't ordinary Blood Demon Art!
Black threads flowed continuously from his fingertips, but they were all easily cut by Tanjiro's sword light. Wherever the red and gold flames passed, the threads were burned to ashes.
Tanjiro's figure approached like a ghost, each step sending shivers down Rui's spine.
Tanjiro's breathing grew heavier and heavier. The intense breathing technique of Hinokami Kagura was putting an extreme strain on his lungs. He felt as if his lungs were about to explode, and the pain was unbearable.
But the next second, the self-healing ability of the demonic body started working at high speed, and the damage to the lungs was repaired instantly, without leaving even a trace of discomfort.
I never imagined becoming a ghost would have such advantages.
Tanjiro sighed inwardly, then quickened his breathing again, making Kagura's dance steps even faster, his figure elusive and as elusive as a flame.
"Hinokami Kagura: Waltz!"
The crimson and gold blade drew a perfect arc, and blazing flames swept around. Tanjiro spun around, instantly forcing Rui back far away and completely widening the distance between him and Nezuko.
Immediately afterwards, the blade flashed and precisely slashed at the silk threads binding the beans.
The silk threads broke and vanished instantly upon encountering Kagami Kagura's flames.
"Nie Douzi, are you alright?"
Tanjiro rushed to Nezuko's side, his voice full of concern, but his gaze swept over her wounds, and his killing intent intensified.
"I'm fine, brother!"
Midouzi shook her head, gripping the broken half of the knife tightly in her hand!
"You rest for a bit, wait for me..."
Tanjiro was interrupted by a cold, angry shout before he could finish speaking.
"Waiting for what? Waiting for you to kill me?"
His face was so gloomy from exhaustion that it looked like it could drip water. Looking at the rescued Midouzi, his eyes were filled with a mixture of obsession and anger.
He quickly raised his hands to his chest, his fingertips slashing fiercely, and dark blood seeped out, staining the silk threads.
The originally jet-black threads instantly turned into an eerie dark red, exuding a deadly danger.
His hands flew, weaving rapidly like cat's cradle, dark red threads intertwining in his palms to form intricate patterns, and a pungent and dangerous aura wafted over.
Tanjiro's nose twitched slightly as he instantly sensed the terrifying power contained within the threads, and his expression changed drastically.
Midouzi tensed up instantly, his hair standing on end, instinctively sensing a deadly crisis.
Before the two could react, Lei's eyes flashed with killing intent, and he shouted in a deep voice.
"Blood Demon Art: Killing Eye Cage!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the dark red threads stained with blood suddenly swelled up and rapidly wove in front of the brother and sister, transforming into a giant net with no blind spots. The mesh of the net was as fine as needles, and it crushed down on the two of them with the power to strangle everything.
Wherever the giant net passed, trees were easily snapped in half, and rubble flew everywhere. A terrifying sense of oppression instantly enveloped the entire area.
Upon seeing this, Tanjiro immediately placed the sword in front of Nezuko and swung it out.
"Hinokami Kagura: Crimson Mirror of the Blazing Sun!"
Crimson and gold flames erupted with a roar, the blade enveloped in dazzling golden light, instantly transforming into a massive shield of flames, like a blazing sun hanging in the sky, blocking the two of them.
Flames surged at the edge of the red mirror, scorching the surrounding air and distorting its intense heat. Its fierce aura forcefully withstood the crushing force of the giant net that enveloped the killing eyes.
Sizzle—!
The moment the dark red thread struck the blazing red mirror of the sun, a deafening, piercing burning sound erupted, billowing black and red smoke rose, and the thread was continuously melted by the flames.
But then, under Lei's control, it kept replenishing itself, and the giant net continued to press down on the flame shield.
Every thread was straining, trying to shred the barrier of flames.
As Mizuko watched her brother continuously use the Kagura Dance, all the memories in her mind were recalled at that moment.
She then looked up at the endless red silk threads, and her breathing suddenly became heavier, even more so than her previous water breathing.
[Father, Mother, Takeo, Shigeru, Rokuta, Hanako, please bless me so I can help my brother!]
"call--"
As her breathing became heavier, Mizuko gripped the hilt of her Nichirin Blade tightly with both hands, making the hilt creak. The pressure from her lungs caused the veins on her forehead to bulge.
As Rui watched Tanjiro struggle against the threads, he turned his gaze to Nezuko, but the next second, his pupils dilated in shock.
"Hinokami Kagura: Azure Heaven!"
