Life at Hunter x Hunter

Chapter 452: Ghostly Appearance, Lower Moon

Qingping Town.

The Demon Slayer Corps' Hashira has been here for five days.

Action must be taken today.

I originally wanted to see if I could find any trace of the ghost's actions, but I can only say that the other party was hiding very well.

They all have heavy responsibilities on their shoulders and cannot stay here for long.

It was Rinryu Sakonji who was directly "acting" the role, playing the role of an evil businessman who came here.

He's the right age, too.

According to their observations, although the ghost did not appear, it definitely exists, and even the local villagers in this small town may have connections with it.

Otherwise, the opponent will definitely not be able to carry out a precise attack.

That night, Rinryu Sakonji was waiting alone in the room, while the other pillars were hiding nearby, concealing their auras so as not to be noticed.

This "unique" skill can be mastered even if you don't know how to recite it, to hide your own aura.

Of course, the power of Nen also has the effect of improving recovery.

Although he pretended to read a book, Linlong Sakonji was actually always on guard.

Suddenly, fog began to appear in the room.

Mist?

Linlong Sakonji stood up immediately.

The fog is very dense and goes away quickly.

Linlong Sakonji also discovered the source of the fog, which was a painting of a mountain hanging on the wall in the room.

The fog dissipated, and Linlong Zuo Jinci had disappeared in the room.

As expected, although it was hidden, Zhu discovered it immediately.

Because the breath in the room disappeared.

The various means provided by Lucci have played a very important role. Pure combat ability is not enough, and various abilities are needed to assist in order to fight better.

The previous absoluteness and current perception ability are like this.

This can be considered a prerequisite ability to see through the world.

"It's a blood vampire technique, a space-type blood vampire technique. It's really more troublesome."

The Twelve Demon Moons that were killed before only had strong combat capabilities and many demons under their command, but they had not yet developed blood demon arts with spatial abilities.

This kind of vampire magic has been rehearsed, so if the opponent wants to escape, there is a high possibility that he can escape.

"There are two types of spatial ability blood vampire arts, one is the real space, and the other is the different space."

The difficulty level is naturally the latter. If it is the latter, then Linryu Sakonji will be in danger.

And their actions will become very troublesome because ghosts can always hide in different spaces.

But soon, they won't have to worry anymore.

Because of the sound of fireworks exploding in the sky, everyone immediately appeared on the roof and looked in the direction of the fireworks.

It is located in a mountain near Qingping Town. The mountain is densely forested, but because a valuable medicinal herb has recently appeared, it has also attracted many people.

This firework is a special firework of the Demon Slayer Corps. It can be regarded as an emergency command. It can be used when encountering danger or demons. When the members of the Demon Slayer Corps see it, they will rush to provide support.

This is also a change brought about by Lucci.

If it was facing a single demon in the past, it was actually very useful, but with Muzan's changes, this kind of firework arrow also has side effects.

If people can see it, ghosts can certainly see it. Ghosts can now live in groups, which may cause ghosts to move faster, and instead of seeking help, they will fall into a worse situation.

All pillars take action immediately, and the crows also deliver the information immediately.

In this unknown mountain, Linlong Sakonji was currently caught in a fierce battle.

Being besieged by ghosts.

When he appeared here, a ghost immediately appeared.

The still young Rinryu Sakonji is very powerful, and it is not yet the time when he becomes old and his strength declines as in the plot.

Maybe this group of ghosts were not careful enough at the beginning, and two of them were directly killed by Linlong Sakonji.

But they soon reacted.

"Demon Slayer Corps!"

When these ghosts see the beheaded ghosts, they will naturally react immediately.

These ghosts are all ghosts who have mastered blood vampire magic. Fortunately, they are not particularly powerful, they are only physical blood vampire magic.

If there were only one or two, Linlong Sakonji could definitely chop them up, but there are too many of them here.

There are at least a dozen.

Linlong Zuo Jinci did not dare to reveal the slightest flaw, as his words told him that there were still hidden ghosts nearby.

Is it the Twelve Ghost Months?

Although he didn't want to admit it, based on the situation two years ago, the pillar of the Demon Slayer Corps did not have the ability to kill the Twelve Kizuki alone.

The ghost is much more powerful.

Now he just had to wait for the others to arrive.

But sometimes it doesn't go as planned.

Suddenly, a wind blade cut through Linlong Zuo Jinci's shoulder, but because he dodged in time, only a small wound was left.

Then the ghost began to retreat and a figure walked out.

"So everything is just a cover. You are a member of the Demon Slayer Corps and that's why you lured us into taking action!" A middle-aged man came out with a sickle for cutting grass in his hand.

It was obvious that the wind blade just now was emitted by him.

Judging from its appearance, it looks like an ordinary human being, completely different from the strange-looking ghosts around it.

Linlong Sakonji looked into the other person's eyes, but did not see the symbol of the Twelve Demon Moons.

Is the intelligence wrong?

No, the blood magic that the opponent just used has nothing to do with spatial ability.

There are other ghosts.

Ida Temple was a very shameless person and had acted very carefully, but he still attracted the Demon Slayer Corps.

If possible, he really didn't want to fight with the Demon Slayer Corps.

But I saw the fireworks just now, so I’m afraid I can’t hide it here.

"What are you hesitating about? Why don't you take action? What about the Demon Slayer Corps?" A crisp girl's voice appeared.

A girl of about twelve or thirteen came out, and as she walked, a light mist spread from all around her.

It seems that the previous spatial ability originated from this girl ghost.

The symbol of the Twelve Demon Moons was also not seen in the other person's eyes.

Following the girl's orders, the surrounding ghosts began to attack again.

And other ghosts also appeared, and these ghosts were stronger, and their number suddenly reached more than thirty.

Linlong Sakonji simply ran away without any intention of fighting.

It's not suitable to fight now, of course there is also a reason why he is no match for the opponent.

Once the number of demons reaches a certain level, even if they don't cooperate well, the increased abilities of blood demon magic can still be very troublesome.

Once he gets injured, he's basically doomed to die.

Especially since there are still two powerful ghosts who have not taken action yet.

Suddenly, a hand stretched out from the ground and grabbed Linlong Zuojinci's ankle. Although Linlong Zuojinci reacted in time, his ankle was also scratched. He immediately used breathing techniques to stop the bleeding.

It became even more inconvenient to move, and the ghosts also surrounded us.

There's nowhere to run.

"With this kind of strength and this age, you don't seem to be an ordinary member of the Demon Slayer Corps. Could you be a Pillar?" A burly man emerged from the ground, another powerful demon.

It's dangerous!

"Someone is going up the mountain!" They were about to surround Linlong Sakonci, but the ghost girl immediately said.

"Didn't you see the fireworks just now? It looks like we're going to have a large number of Demon Slayers. This is going to be trouble!"

"What's the trouble? Just kill them all. Then you can have a good meal." The cute girl said the terrible words.

"I have never eaten anyone from the Demon Slayer Corps, so I'd like to let you have a taste of it."

Obviously, he did not take the so-called Demon Slayer Corps seriously.

But they soon realized they were wrong, because the ghosts on the mountain were being killed quickly, and the girl's face immediately changed.

Because of her abilities, she knows the situation of this mountain.

"How can he be so strong?" The girl was frightened.

"Ahhh!" Two screams were heard.

"I'm here just in time." A figure came as fast as lightning, killed two ghosts, and came to the side of Linlong Sakonji, standing back to back with him.

It was none other than the Sound Pillar, Jigoro Kuwashima.

"Just right!" Seeing his companions coming to his aid, Linlong Sakonji felt a little relieved.

There were unexpectedly many ghosts in the mountains. Ghosts appeared as soon as the pillars entered the forest. Of course, these ghosts had no power to fight back against the pillars.

"how come?"

Are the Demon Slayer Corps really that strong?

She was a little panicked. The girl ghost had never seen such a situation before and was a little scared.

"Let's retreat first." Ida Temple pushed the girl.

The girl immediately used blood demon magic, and fog began to appear, and the density increased rapidly. All the pillars quickly became alert.

Soon the mountain became deserted.

All the ghosts around disappeared.

It turned out to be a blood demon art with spatial ability.

The fog did not dissipate, but instead surged towards the depths of the mountain, also guiding the direction for the pillars.

The columns will be and.

"Do you want to continue?" The question was mainly directed to Xia Zhu and Dong Zhu.

"Now that we're here, we can only fight." I originally thought that the battle would take place in the town, but now it seems that I was overthinking.

In that case, why not just join the battle?

While running, Linlong Sakonji also informed what had happened just now, mainly the abilities of the three ghosts.

Although no one did much, some clues could be seen.

One uses a sickle to perform wind blade attacks, one has the ability to use foggy space, and one has the ability to burrow underground.

Of course, it was also emphasized that there was an adult behind them, and it was very likely that it was the Lower Moon of the Twelve Demon Moons.

Not to mention these, there were probably close to a hundred ghosts in the mountain just now, and each one was stronger than ordinary ghosts.

The scale is even greater than it was two years ago.

If a single pillar comes here, he will only leave a mark, not to mention the Demon Slayer Corps members of other levels.

The situation is worse than they had imagined. This is only the Lower Moon, and they cannot imagine what the other twelve demon moons are like.

And is that all the spatial ability you have?

This mountain is as big as Tengxi Mountain, but it is covered with dense forests and rarely visited by people, so it is not easy to walk on it. The only difference is that they are strong enough to jump on the trees to move around.

Otherwise, you might lose track of the other person.

The depths of the mountain are filled with a thin mist.

The situation has changed here. Although there are still many trees and jungles, some traces of human footsteps can be seen.

Soon they arrived at their destination. There were ten huge trees lined up, with many vines woven together. A huge "log house nest" appeared in front of them.

There are also many blue flowers near the nest, which are the special medicinal herbs that have been spread during this period.

The visibility here is very poor. If it weren't for the sporadic moonlight, it would be pitch black.

All the pillars looked towards the center of the "wooden house". A man with a gentle appearance was standing there, also looking at them.

The sparse moonlight allowed the pillars to see each other's eyes clearly.

Upper Sixth Moon, the information is not wrong.

"Now that you're here, don't even think about running away." The ghost girl said with a big smile on her face, without any of the fear she had before.

The surrounding vines began to spread, blocking the road behind.

And the sky is also covered by vines, and soon there will be no light left.

Fire type!

The first to attack was Rengoku Makijuro. His opponent had already launched the blood demon technique, so there was no way he could let him succeed.

The other pillars also started to work, chopping down all the surrounding trees and vines first.

Although the breathing method is powerful, it is not enough to give them the ability of night vision.

Once their vision is deprived, their combat effectiveness will be greatly affected.

The battle was fierce, but basically one-sided, with unequal strength. What was surprising was that the Lower Moon Lu didn't do much.

Until the Pillar Killer arrived in front of him and "killed" the Lower String.

It turned out to be just a wooden puppet.

"Haha, you've been fooled." The girl ghost laughed.

"Since you have discovered us, the adults said we can't stay here any longer. Unfortunately, the town we have cultivated hasn't developed to the point of true prosperity yet, so we have to eat it up in advance."

The girl ghost villain's speech revealed some information.

At this time, there was another crow calling loudly.

"The Lower Moon Land appears in Qingping Town, all pillars return to defense as soon as possible."

And Ida Temple was shocked: "Reiko, what is going on?"

Obviously he was calling the name of the ghost girl.

"Don't you understand? The master asked you to develop your hometown so that you can eat as much as you want at some point. It's a pity that it was destroyed by these Demon Slayer Corps."

"And you will just fight to the death with the Demon Slayer Corps here. You have been abandoned by the adults." As he said this, mist appeared and disappeared with the underground demon.

Ida Temple, the middle-aged man holding a knife.

"No, no, no!" He tried to rush into the fog, but it was useless.

Then he gave up fighting and rushed towards the town regardless of anything.

When the remaining ghosts saw this situation, they knew they were abandoned and ran away quickly.

"Leave this to us, you guys go and provide support." Chun Zhu spoke first.

Although the other ghosts are not very strong, they cannot be let go.

In Qingping Town, it was now a ghost town. The originally peaceful scene was completely destroyed, and all kinds of screams were heard in the town.

The original wisteria trees also turned into scary "tree monsters" that devoured people.

A fire was also set in the town, in an attempt to burn these strange trees.

Of course, there are other members of the Demon Slayer Corps fighting as well.

But the situation is not good.

"Why is this?" The mayor stood in front of Xiaxian Lu.

"Why, you are nothing but food that I raise in captivity. Even though something went wrong, now it is time for me to taste the food. You know, I have been patient for a long time."

A vine opened its huge mouth and swallowed the mayor directly.
