Tanjiro ran quickly on the mountainside of Mt. Sasagiri, heading towards the foothills.

After more than a month of training, his body is agile and dexterous, like an ape shuttling through the mountains and forests, walking on the ground.

"Whew!"

A whistling sound came from the right, and Tanjiro didn't think about it, and he bent down and dodged the mechanism.

I saw a wooden stake of two people hugging each other, and Duang crashed into another tree.

And the tree was connected to a faintly visible thin line, which was directly broken by the stake.

"Cards!"

As the line broke, several wooden arrows burst out of the shadows towards Tanjiro with a sharp cracking sound.

Tanjiro leaped forward, his body tumbling and twisting in the air, dodging all the wooden arrows.

But before he could be happy, as soon as he landed, he felt that the soles of his feet were empty, and the ground suddenly collapsed, revealing a hole of about four meters.

And Tanjiro was about to fall into the pothole, but he grabbed the edge of the hole with both hands in time, and jumped out of the hole with both arms.

After jumping out of the hole, he just took a breath, but he heard a whistling sound, and the wind stimulated Tanjiro's perception from top to bottom.

I saw a stone the size of a human head being thrown in, carrying a lot of strength and speed, and smashed it diagonally down at Tanjiro from above.

Tanjiro also noticed this, and he was about to turn his head sideways to dodge, but suddenly he had a bad premonition in his heart, as if someone was plotting against him.

Vaguely, Tanjiro seemed to see two figures, smiling maliciously at him.

"What's going on?"

As a result of this distraction, the rhythm of the water breath that he was trying to maintain suddenly stopped, and Tanjiro coughed violently, and his body stagnated.

"Oops, broken ...... again"

At this moment, the skull-sized stone was already so close that it was too late to dodge.

Seeing this, Tanjiro no longer tried to dodge, he threw his head back, and then slammed forward.

"Bang!"

Tanjiro's forehead slammed into the stone, but it was as if it had hit a tofu block.

The moment the stone clicked, countless spiderweb-like cracks spread, which were shattered and shattered, and the dignity of being a stone was completely lost.

Stone: "You should be a human being!! ”

(▼Dish▼#)

In the next second, along the crack, the stone shattered and cracked, and then unwillingly turned into a lot of small pieces of gravel that were overtaken by Tanjiro.

Tanjiro's forehead was not scarred, and it was shiny and intact.

Tanjiro paused for a moment, took a long breath, and then touched his forehead with palpitations.

"It's good that I'm iron...... Otherwise, you're going to get hurt. ”

"Master, this training ground that you have set up to improve people's vigilance and instinct...... It's really all about the machine. ”

"But I've been able to get through without any injuries this time, and it didn't take too long, which is a good result."

Although he passed through this densely packed area for the first time without injury, Tanjiro was not happy about it.

Because the breathing method was interrupted again.

He looked at the sky, a little melancholy, after worshipping Scales Takizuo as a teacher, Tanjiro was almost cultivating and cultivating in a desperate way.

But the foundation of the strength of all swordsmen in this world, the breathing method, he did not master it well.

Master Scales Zuo uses the breath of water, the breath is steady, continuous, balanced, soft and rigid.

However, Tanjiro always felt that he was not suitable for Water Breathing, and his physique did not match Water Breath well.

"If this continues, it may take me two years to master the breath of water......

And Tanjiro knew in his heart that even if he could master the breath of water proficiently, there would definitely be a lot of flaws.

When Master Tsutaki Zuo was teaching him swordsmanship and feeding him moves, the wooden knife in Tanjiro's hand broke many times......

After looking for the root of the problem, Tsutaki said, "Tanjiro, you have a good comprehension of sword moves, and you use sword moves perfectly. ”

"However, when you use the breathing method, it is always difficult for the breathing method and the sword move to fit perfectly."

"And this point is very fatal to the swordsman, you must find a way to fully master the breathing method, the breathing method is the foundation of everything."

Scales Zuo's words echoed in his ears, but Tanjiro could only sigh helplessly, but then raised his head: "Ahhhh ”

After motivating himself, Tanjiro gritted his teeth again and inhaled a lot of air.

These currents poured into his lungs, circulating and strengthening his body, allowing Tanjiro to keep running despite his exhaustion.

Running all the way to the foot of the mountain, Tanjiro could already vaguely see the master's wooden house.

He was exhausted now, and Tanjiro was exhausted by the non-stop training.

He was eager to go back to the house and rest for a while.

"It's just...... How does it smell like blood? ”

Tanjiro's heart instantly became alert, and the shadow left by the sight of his family's corpse when he returned home after selling charcoal made him a little uneasy.

"No...... The master is so strong, he will be fine with your beans. ”

With the strength of the scales left in the near future, what kind of ghost can threaten him?

Tanjiro didn't dare to imagine.

In desperation, Tanjiro quickened his pace, ignoring the bursts of exhaustion, and ran over as fast as he could.

After approaching the wooden house, the scene here appears in Tanjiro's field of vision.

His eyes immediately widened and he shouted, "Don't! ”

In Tanjiro's eyes, in front of the wooden house, in a flat open space where Tsutaki often practiced his swordsmanship with him.

There was a ghost with a metallic glow and scars all over his body, his face obscured by black thorns, making it impossible to see.

The ghost was taking a steady step as a stone, approaching the left and the left of the scales step by step, and the terrifying blade of the giant axe in his hand was flashing with a blinding cold light.

The smell of thorn juice smeared on the surface of the demon's body, making Tanjiro's sense of smell useless.

Scales were gasping for breath and half-kneeling on the ground, trying a few times but just couldn't stand up.

And the Nichiwa knife that was recently on the left side of the scale also fell to the ground on the side.

When he saw this scene, Tanjiro became more and more nervous.

Scales have recently said that at all times, you must hold the Nichiren knife in your hand.

If the man is separated from the sword, it means that the enemy is too strong to resist, and the man is not far from death.

Seeing Tanjiro's figure, Scales Zuo's voice was weak, but he said tremblingly: "Tanjiro, run away, he is not something you can deal with." ”

There was anxiety in the voice, with unbearability, with urging.

After saying that, Scales Zuo Jinji didn't seem to be able to support his body, and he staggered and almost fainted.

Under the mask formed by the entanglement of black thorns, he almost believed it with a tsk when the river flowed.

You're always an actor.

At this time, Kawatoki turned around, put his hands behind his back, and pressed against Tanjiro.

"Brother, don't blame me for being with your master."

"We need to know how you react when you face the invincible."

"Run away, or fight as hard as you can."

"And your choice will also determine our choice......"

moved his throat, and when he was in the impression, he said in a low, deep, depressing, and terrifying tone in his impression: "Human? ”

"Do you want to die?"
