Chapter 524 Pleading with the Immortal to Bestow the Dharma!

big brother?

Tanjiro was taken aback upon hearing this, then exclaimed with delight, "Mr. Sword... is he your elder brother?"

Yun Ye smiled slightly at the surprise on his face and casually tossed the Nichirin Blade back.

Tanjiro quickly caught it, hesitated for a moment, then looked up and said, "Sir, this sword was left by Mr. Sword. I'm just temporarily keeping it safe. Since Mr. Sword is your elder brother, perhaps..."

With that, he forced himself to hold back and raised the Nichirin Blade in his hand.

Yun Ye looked at him with interest and said, "Is that why you've been trying so hard to avoid becoming dependent on this Nichirin Blade?"

"..."

Tanjiro nodded somewhat embarrassedly: "That's part of the reason."

"No need!" Yun Ye waved his hand dismissively, "Since it's a gift from your elder brother, just accept it and don't bother returning it!"

Tanjiro exclaimed in surprise, "Really?"

Yun Ye nodded with a smile. They were all now at the Primordial Foundation Establishment stage, possessing great strength. This sword was Lin Yu's early work. Although it had a variety of abilities and was quite outstanding, its rank was not high enough to warrant coveting it.

"but……"

Yun Ye turned around, looked at Akaza who was still being brutally beaten by Fan Xian in the sky, and chuckled, "This Upper Moon demon will belong to me and that guy in the sky, okay?"

Tanjiro quickly replied, "Of course, no problem—right, Rengoku-san!"

"..."

Rengoku Kyojuro remained silent for a moment before slowly saying, "Gentlemen, you..."

"boom!!"

Before he finished speaking, an incredibly violent shockwave came from the open ground in front of him.

Yun Ye flicked his sleeve, stirring the air and easily blocking the shockwave coming from the front.

Tanjiro and Kyojuro instinctively raised their hands to shield themselves, but when they realized that the gust of wind had not passed over them, they lowered their arms and looked ahead in shock.

Not far away, a huge crater, tens of meters in diameter, was clearly visible on the ground.

Dressed in white, Fan Xian stood quietly at the bottom of the pit, his body spotless and untouched by dust. Standing atop Akaza's remaining head, he spoke softly:

"Are you awake now?"

"..."

Akaza's face was contorted, and his eyes, which were etched with the characters 'Upper Moon' and 'Three,' trembled violently, filled with unbelievable horror and incomprehensible madness.

Clearly, even with only its head remaining, this ferocious ghost still retained a sliver of life.

"This...how...is this possible?!"

A faint but frantic voice came from his blood-stained mouth.

Fan Xian sneered, kicked his head back, and stared directly into his eyes, saying:
"How is it impossible?"

"You mere ghosts? With your frail bodies that can't even withstand sunlight, how dare you compare to the human body that has been tempered and refined over thousands of years?"

The idea that ghosts are superior to humans is nothing but the fantasy of evil spirits before they are baked to death by the sun!

As we all know, the sun is the largest energy source that can be accessed in the starting village of Earth.

If even the energy of sunlight cannot be utilized, that's the limit of a ghost's power!
Hearing Fan Xian's words, which contradicted the Heavenly Gang yet were full of self-righteousness, Yiwo felt extremely aggrieved, but he didn't know how to refute them.

He vaguely realized that he had made the wrong choice.

Perhaps human warriors truly possess a potential greater than that of demons…

But since things had come to this, there was nothing he could change. He could only feel frustrated, fearful, resentful, and regretful as Fan Xian casually put him into a crystal ball.

After taking in the Upper Moon demon, Fan Xian leaped and landed in front of Yun Ye.

Yun Ye waved his hand to remove the barrier, and asked worriedly, "Were you not killed?"

Fan Xian shook his head and said, "Don't worry, I know what I'm doing. Besides, this Upper Moon demon has extremely strong regenerative abilities. As long as it is given sufficient life energy, it will recover to its original state very quickly."

After saying that, he turned his head and looked at the Nichirin Blade in Tanjiro's hand.

"Is this what my elder brother left behind in this world?"

this world?

Rengoku Kyojuro paused slightly, as if he had realized something.

Yun Ye smiled and nodded, "That's right!"

Fan Xian's eyes gleamed with golden light as he carefully examined the blade for a few moments. He then said thoughtfully, "Judging from the blood patterns on this sword, it seems to possess some kind of power similar to a summoning technique. If I'm not mistaken, this sword should have already contracted with a demon. Tanjiro, why don't I see you using the demon's power?"

"This……"

Tanjiro hesitated and said, "I've never been comfortable using Blood Demon Art, and besides..."

He turned his head and looked at the overturned train behind him, and the passengers beside the train carriages, some unconscious and some slowly waking up.

Fan Xian followed his gaze and immediately understood.

This little guy already hated demons intensely, and having witnessed how people treated his sister Nezuko, he naturally worried that the Blood Demon Art might cause misunderstandings and lead people to mistake him for a demon as well.

That's why, even when the battle was fierce, he subconsciously forgot about this ability.

It's estimated that he would only choose to use Blood Demon Art when the situation is so dire that he has no choice but to...

"In such a perilous situation, still thinking about these things, what a blockhead!" Fan Xian shook his head, then turned to look at Rengoku Kyojuro and said:

"Now that the demons have been defeated, how does the Demon Slayer Corps plan to handle the aftermath?"

"..."

Kyojuro Rengoku regained his composure, steadied himself, and said in a deep voice, "Follow the normal procedures. Have the nearest member of the Demon Slayer Corps handle the aftermath, treat the wounded, eliminate traces, and try to avoid public panic."

Tanjiro nodded, and then said with some pride, "You two gentlemen may not know, but before the train derailed, Mr. Rengoku used a lot of techniques to neutralize the force of the carriage overturning."

"Two hundred passengers, and not a single one died. That's something not everyone can do!"

"Is that so?" Fan Xian looked at Kyojuro with a hint of appreciation. "Not bad!"

Kyojuro Rengoku shook his head and said calmly, "This may be a great feat for others, but for you two gentlemen, it should be nothing more than a simple act."

"Not bad!"

Yun Ye smiled broadly and accepted Rengoku Kyojuro's compliments without any hesitation.

Kyojuro Rengoku didn't care and continued to stare at the two of them, saying in a deep voice, "Several months ago, during the battle at Mount Natagumo, the mysterious swordsman suddenly appeared, eliminated the evil spirits in the mountain, and then quickly left, leaving behind only Tanjiro's Nichirin Blade and a body that had been strengthened by a mysterious power."

"The former goes without saying, but only Tanjiro and you two can use it."

"The latter was taken back to the base by the Demon Slayer Corps. After several months of research, it was discovered that it did not seem to rely on external forces, but rather on a power that the human body itself possesses."

"This power is so mysterious that it is far beyond what the Demon Slayer Corps can currently detect."

"But after perusing the Central Plains classics in my lord's collection, I discovered that the Chinese Taoists had long ago discovered this power and called this mysterious power the Primordial Qi..."

At this point, Kyojuro Rengoku took a deep breath, and then, under Tanjiro's bewildered gaze, said in a deep voice, "If I'm not mistaken, the reason you two are so powerful must be related to this power, right?"

Well, how should I put it? It is and it isn't!

The primordial path of cultivation integrates various power systems from all the heavens and myriad realms.

During the Qi cultivation period, it has little to do with the innate Qi, but the establishment of the immortal foundation does indeed utilize the innate Qi.

"Not bad~"

Yun Ye looked at Rengoku Kyojuro with some surprise.

"I never expected you could investigate to this extent!"

"You flatter me, sir!"

Rengoku Kyojuro shook his head and said, "The world has changed drastically, and ideas are surging. Foreign merchants and Western ideas are spreading all over the world. However, the cultural influence of the past thousand years cannot be easily changed."

"Noble families like my lord still retain a large number of classic texts from the Central Plains."

"It was my lord who first discovered the clues; it had nothing to do with me..."

The Demon Slayer Corps leader... is that Ubuyashiki Kagaya?
Yun Ye and Fan Xian exchanged a glance, both able to see the interest on each other's faces.

"So..." Fan Xian asked with a light laugh, "what exactly are you trying to say?"

Rengoku Kyojuro steadied himself and looked intently at the two of them, saying:
"Gentlemen... are you perhaps the immortals of Chinese legend?"

"..."

Fan Xian and Yun Ye were both taken aback, then said with great interest:
"Why do you say that?"

"In the path of Qi cultivation, only the legendary immortals who have ascended to heaven can compare to you two. In addition, considering the 'world' that this gentleman just mentioned, I dare to guess that you two may not be from this world!"

Kyojuro Rengoku stated his speculation with absolute certainty.

Yun Ye smiled and looked at the fiery young man with great appreciation.

He knew that the reason why Kyojuro Rengoku was able to analyze this information was most likely due to the large amount of information accumulated by the Demon Slayer Corps through investigation and research over the past few months.

Ultimately, it was the butterfly effect caused by the body left behind by Lin Yu.

Regardless, the fact that he was able to gather all this information and draw such a fairly accurate conclusion from Fan Xian's momentary slip of the tongue is enough to prove his keen intuition and accurate judgment.

"What if... I admitted that I am an immortal?"

"thump!"

Without hesitation, Rengoku Kyojuro knelt down, his forehead pressed against the ground, and earnestly said:

"Flame Pillar of the Demon Slayer Corps, we humbly request the Sage to bestow upon us the art of exorcising demons!"

"...Mr. Purgatory!"

Tanjiro looked astonished, seemingly not expecting Mr. Rengoku to be so decisive.

After a moment's thought, he gritted his teeth and knelt down along with Kyojuro Rengoku, begging the two to grant him the power to help the Demon Slayer Corps completely eradicate evil spirits from the world.

Seeing this, Yun Ye's lips twitched, and he couldn't help but exchange a glance with Fan Xian.

The two communicated telepathically, asking, "What do you mean?"

“I think it’s possible to agree,” Yun Ye said thoughtfully. “After all, this world is from the early 20th century. There are too many overly dazzling names in China. If you and I were to go back and develop it, I wouldn’t be able to bring myself to do it.”

"In that case, why not abandon China for now and only cooperate with them, providing them with ideological and military assistance?"

"As for global development, it should be carried out in countries around the world outside of China."

"But this is, after all, the world of Demon Slayer. If we want to find a starting point for a large-scale crossover, it has to be this land beneath our feet!"
