The blood vessels in my temples started gushing blood.
"You really have no other way to help me?! Don't be ridiculous!"
Perhaps due to the drop in blood pressure, or perhaps forced by the impending threat, Muzan forced himself to calm down.
He vigorously swung the whips and barbs on his body, temporarily forcing back the pillars that were attacking him.
Then, as if gathering strength in place, he struck a Super Saiyan transformation pose, his body trembling slightly, as if he was enduring something.
His nonchalant attitude made him seem as if he had suddenly been poisoned, which was very deceptive.
"His movements have stopped! Now's the time to chop him into mincemeat!"
Sanemi Shinazugawa charged forward first, his eyes bloodshot, his intense killing intent almost overflowing, and his expression even more ferocious than that of a demon.
When it comes to hatred for demons, there are few in the entire Demon Slayer Corps who can surpass him!
When Xuanmi saw his brother initiate a team fight with Flash, he followed without saying a word.
If Shinazugawa Sanemi's expression was merely ferocious, resembling that of a demon, then Genya at this moment truly looked exactly like a demon.
The original black rooster-comb hairstyle turned yellow at the ends.
Its mouth sprouted hideous fangs that were indistinguishable from those of a demon, and its eyes had turned into demonic eyes with black backgrounds and yellow pupils.
His height increased dramatically to over 1.8 meters, making him appear a size larger out of thin air.
With the help of Tamayo and Kanae's research, his Demon Eater physique was developed to the maximum extent. He no longer needed to eat demons as before; he only needed a small amount of demon blood to gain great power.
And clearly, the basement of Xia Yan's house has no shortage of ghost blood.
I've collected all the Upper Moon Six to Upper Moon Two.
While running, Xuanmi took out a blood-red capsule from his waist bag and put it in his mouth.
The next second, he became like a berserker wielding dual swords, his blood vessels bulged, his skin turned bright red, and a layer of blood mist even faintly lingered around his body.
His eyes were like red light bulbs, and his whole mental state appeared extremely excited.
Its speed increased dramatically, and it rushed directly in front of Shinazugawa Sanemi.
His aura was even stronger than that of his older brother, Shinazugawa Sanemi, the Wind Pillar.
The main ingredient in that capsule was Xia Yan's blood.
A couple of years ago, when he was bored, Xia Yan conducted an experiment with ghosts. His blood was a hundred times more delicious to ghosts than rare blood, and it also had the effect of a stimulant.
It greatly enhances the physical functions of demons in a short period of time.
As the only demon in the family to have tasted Natsuhiko's blood, and arguably one who was lured back by Natsuhiko with his blood, Tamayo naturally wouldn't forget that.
They made it into pills and gave them to Sanemi Shinazugawa as a means of unleashing his power.
Xia Yan jokingly referred to it as the "drug-taking tactic."
"Don't be too impulsive. It might be Muzan's trick. Be careful!"
Obanai Iguro, the Serpent Pillar who was closest to Sanemi Shinazugawa and also hated demons the most, was slightly behind in position, but 660 also launched a pincer attack from other directions.
However, he was more composed, and while attacking, he reminded the Shinazugawa brothers to be careful not to fall into a trap.
This reminder was indeed of great help!
boom--
A powerful shockwave spread outwards in all directions from Muzan's center.
It's like a miniature version of Shinra Tensei.
Genya, who was the fastest runner and within reach of Muzan, had a body strength exceeding that of a diamond after his demon transformation, yet half of his body was blasted apart in an instant.
But precisely because of this, Sanemi Shinazugawa, who was behind him, did not suffer a great deal of impact!
Just like Obanai Iguro, she was instantly stunned, lost consciousness, and flew backward.
The other pillars, who were a step slower, did not fall into a coma or fly backward, but they were as if struck by an electric current, their nervous systems in chaos, and they convulsed uncontrollably.
Clearly, they are incapable of fighting for the time being.
Having just gained the upper hand, a single move almost completely reversed the situation.
Only Kanae and Tamayo were present. Thanks to the demon's powerful regenerative abilities, they quickly recovered and cautiously watched Muzan.
Chapter 446 Kill me, or be killed by me
Even Upper Moon demons like Akaza and Kokushibo, who possess powerful combat skills, essentially fight using Blood Demon Art.
But Muzan is different!
As the progenitor of demons, Muzan's near-perfect, powerful physique has always been something he is proud of!
Every inch of his muscle and skin is the most terrifying weapon in the world.
Even a casual lash from the whip behind him could unleash terrifying destructive power like a mortar, easily destroying a three-story building.
Therefore, he was too lazy to develop blood demon magic for combat, preferring to fight with his powerful body.
However, this does not mean that Muzan will not use Blood Demon Art.
He simply disdained developing blood demon arts that he considered merely flashy and impractical.
This also means that the Blood Demon Art he retains must be incredibly powerful!
Muzan has not yet named this Blood Demon Technique.
To be precise, this is the first time it has been used since Muzan developed it!
After being nearly killed by Yoriichi, Muzan managed to escape through splitting and hid for sixty years, outliving Yoriichi Tsugikuni by virtue of his demonic lifespan.
However, he was also left with an indelible fear that was even etched deep into every cell of his body.
Therefore, he was also thinking about what would happen if he encountered Yoriichi Tsugikuni again and was unable to escape.
How should I deal with this?
The answer is this Blood Demon Technique.
It forms a powerful, all-encompassing shockwave centered on itself to counter Yoriichi Tsugikuni's speed.
It can also disrupt the nervous system throughout the body, causing spasms, rendering a person unable to move, and leading to death.
Even if Yoriichi Tsugikuni really dodged the shockwave, he would definitely be affected to some extent.
Even if we are outmatched, we can still buy more time to escape.
Previously, it was just a prototype, merely a concept of Blood Demon Art, but it had never been put into practice.
Because it's completely unnecessary.
And now, the effect is indeed as powerful as Muzan predicted. Even in his current extremely weakened state, he still managed to reverse the situation instantly.
Although the situation was reversed, Muzan only glanced deeply at Kanae and Tamayo not far away, as if he wanted to engrave their appearance and aura in his heart.
"Remember this... Haa... Haa... It absolutely won't end that easily!!!"
Although it was only a short sentence, Muzan spoke it intermittently, accompanied by heavy breathing.
It was like an old man who was terminally ill and could barely breathe.
If he were still in normal condition, this move, although very taxing, would only require him to catch his breath and recover.
But now, he can barely breathe.
After leaving behind those harsh words, Muzan turned around and, without the slightest hesitation, staggered and ran towards the mountains and forests.
As for the pillars lying on the ground, completely unable to resist, he didn't even glance at them.
Without the slightest hesitation, he considered finishing off the enemy.
There is no other reason,
He sensed Xia Yan was already close before he even used his move, so he couldn't afford to waste even a second!
However, even though he didn't suffer for a moment and immediately fled the battlefield, he still couldn't escape from Xia Yan's grasp!
"Yo~, long time no see, it's been about twenty minutes..."
"Kibutsuji Muzan!"
Xia Yan leaned against a tall tree, his two fingers slightly together, paused briefly at the corner of his eye, and then slid forward, giving an awkward Polish military salute.
"Ming Shenyue...Xia Yan..."
Looking at the tall figure leaning against the tree, pretending to be nonchalant, Muzan felt a chill run through his hands and feet.
In his eyes, poison, Nichirin Blade, and those swordsmen who sacrificed themselves for righteousness after activating their markings were all worthless trash.
Xia Yan was the only one he dared not and was unwilling to face!
Even just through the sensations Kokushibo experienced before his death, he realized just how terrifying that dazzling golden spark truly was to him!
Just one glance was enough to etch it deeply into every cell of his being.
When he saw Xia Yan, he felt like a mouse seeing a cat, his legs trembling with fear.
"You bastard... how did you find me! I've already escaped all the way here! You shouldn't have been able to find me!"
Muzan looked around at the dense forest and said through gritted teeth.
Although he was extremely weak, and even felt as if he had returned to a thousand years ago, before he took the potion and became a demon, it was ultimately just an illusion.
In fact, he escaped at a speed far exceeding that of steam trains of that era!
In less than a minute, they had already left the battlefield far behind, and theoretically they shouldn't have been discovered!
"Ah, that's what you're talking about."
"Having lived for over a thousand years, you should know that there are some people in the world with very special physical constitutions who possess abilities that surpass those of ordinary people, right?"
"Some people have a very keen sense of smell, some people have exceptionally good hearing, and some people can even gain power by eating ghosts."
Xia Yan's attitude was casual, as if he had a good relationship with Muzan.
"Mine is my eyes!" He pointed to his eyes. "My eyes are special!"
"I can easily see through everything for tens of kilometers. I just glanced at where you were moving and, based on your speed and route, predicted your location and waited here in advance."
