When Muzan appeared before this weak man and heard this greeting, he couldn't help but laugh.

"How disgusting! Your body reeks of corpses, Ubuyashiki. This is the fate of my family that has been hindering me for thousands of years. Now I have no interest in killing you."

He had a pleasant voice and long, narrow pupils like a cat's. He appeared to be a man between 25 and 30 years old.

"You came here because of Nezuko, right?" Knowing Muzan's situation, Kagaya Ubuyashiki got straight to the point in one sentence.

"It seems you know the situation," Muzan said thoughtfully. "What I'm pursuing now is true immortality. Ubuyashiki, I did nothing wrong. The real reason for your punishment is yourselves."

"Eternal and indestructible?" The lord laughed, a laugh unlike his usual demeanor. "You'll soon find out whether you can be eternal."

After he finished speaking, a blazing fireball filled the entire house.

This explosion occurred even faster than in the original story, and with Rikka Takanashi adding more gunpowder, the explosive power increased exponentially.

For Muzan, this was a terrible disaster.

Boom——

The explosion sent a burst of light soaring into the sky, and all the approaching pillars saw the sudden flash of light in the darkness.

To create a dramatic explosion, Rikka used a lot of flashbangs to spread the blast light as far as possible to the approaching team members.

The first warriors to confront Muzan were his own clones.

"Ubuyashiki!" Muzan emerged from the explosion's light, half his head gone. The explosion was incredibly powerful, filled with cross-shaped nails that slowed his regeneration.

"I never imagined you could do this much."

He underestimated the other party's determination, and decided to take his wife and daughters with him, willing to pay any price to seriously injure him.

"Damn it, I can't think now, I can't waver, I need to recover my body quickly."

Muzan was on edge. For him, once he recovered from his injuries, the Demon Slayer Corps would no longer be a threat.

Chapter 181 Infinite City?

But... when the smoke cleared, standing in front of him was a petite girl holding a knife.

The other person curled the corners of their mouth, a faint smile appearing on their face.

"Hello, Muzan!"

She was an extremely cute girl with a beautiful voice, but Muzan knew that this girl, along with other Demon Slayer Corps warriors, had easily taken down several Upper Moons.

Even more alarming, in addition to the woman in front of them, even stranger lumps of flesh appeared around them.

"This is the seed of flesh, Blood Demon Art?" Muzan was shocked.

Upon hearing his voice, Hei Tong's expression changed slightly.

Pearl World?

She's one of the very few important characters in the story that Su Lin hasn't encountered since arriving in this world, and she's not human, but a demon who opposes Muzan. However, unlike most demons, Tamayo belongs to the good side, restraining her murderous desires and only drinking a very small amount of blood.

For many years, she has been dedicated to collecting demon blood, and eventually developed a drug to turn demons into humans in order to deal with Muzan.

This is a battle we must take action for.

Kurome knew that since they were all demons, if Muzan died, all the other demons would die as well. Therefore, Tamayo was already prepared to die.

However, considering that Nezuko is a female protagonist, there should be a way to avoid that kind of thing, right?

Muzan's sins are heinous, but it is his family and descendants who truly pay for them. For over a thousand years, the arrogant Muzan has killed countless innocent people. Most of those around him, whether human or demon, have met with bad ends, except for Muzan himself...

"It's not fair. Sometimes I wonder, how can the world be so unfair?"

The text doesn't mention the will of the world; it merely habitually points out the irrationality of the Demon Slayer worldview. This helps avoid detection by the forces of that world.

"That's the power of correction. No matter how logical it may seem, the world itself is moving toward a certain fixed outcome. If something goes off track, it will self-correct."

For worlds that are not of the original source—those worldviews that originate from fantasy—the laws are established by the very beings that created them. It can be said that all the injustices and sins of this world are determined at the level of thought.

It must be admitted that this is very idealistic, but from the perspective of the multiverse system, it is actually the truth. The development of all things is not about right or wrong, but only about cause and effect. The outcome of anything is not determined by judgment, but by its own inherent trend. This continuity is precisely the reason for the current situation.

Tamayo was determined to unleash her Blood Demon Art, even at the cost of her life, to eliminate Muzan.

At the same time, the rock pillar appeared and swung his chain hammer, smashing Muzan's neck in two.

"As expected, even with his neck severed, nothing happened. Muzan has indeed reached this level."

The others who arrived, whether they were Pillars or ordinary Demon Slayer Corps members, all took action.

"The breath of insects, the dance of butterflies." Shinobu's expression was unusually ferocious as the hatred she had suppressed inside her erupted.

"Serpent's Breath, Form One".

Even with emotional entanglements, the Serpent Pillar is willing to fight alongside his teammates when facing a common enemy.

"The Breath of Love, Form Five".

Love Pillar's aura broke through to its limit in an instant; her power completely exceeded the impression given by her appearance.

"Water Breathing, Third Form." This is Giyu Tomioka's breathing technique.

"Breath of the Wind, Seventh Form." The Wind Pillar suppressed his temper towards his teammates and focused on launching an attack.

"Kami Kagura of Fire, Yang Hua Sudden."

Essentially, it's a skill from the Sun Breathing technique, released from Tanjiro's hands.

"Hahaha." Faced with this situation, Muzan burst into maniacal laughter. "You think you can push me to the brink like this?"

He opened a portal to the Infinite City, and everyone simultaneously fell into a fully three-dimensional, interconnected ancient city.

Like a labyrinth, endless and dazzling. As Yukino descended into such a world, her spirit began to tense.

This city is controlled by Nakime's spatial abilities. If you can't kill her, seeing Muzan will be as difficult as climbing to heaven.

This is partly due to Rikka's reluctance to use sunlight to kill Muzan, but in Yukino's view, killing Muzan before he was at his weakest could lead to unforeseen circumstances. This hesitation ultimately resulted in the final battle in the Infinity Castle becoming a reality.

But how to put it... although he says that if Muzan dies, all demons will die, who knows what will actually happen after it happens. To be on the safe side and prevent any unforeseen circumstances, he wants to eliminate all the Upper Moons first before using his killing move on Muzan.

Otherwise, if Muzan dies, and the other Upper Moons undergo some kind of mutation, things could get really messy.

"There are so many ghosts here, and they are all of the Lower Moon level."

The number of enemies appearing before them is countless, most of whom are stronger than the Lower Moon Five they encountered at the beginning. This strength, which initially led ordinary members of the Demon Slayer Corps to hell, is now merely cannon fodder used to wear down their strength.

Many people fell into the city together, and the different pillars were separated into different spaces the moment they entered. However, because Su Lin's clones held the hands of the different pillars at the last moment, they were all teleported along with them.

For example, Kurome was right next to Shinobu Kocho.

"I'll fulfill my promise and help you kill Doma."

Kurohime's Yafusa is already +16, and the last-minute upgrade has made her weapon comparable to a Nichirin Blade.

Furthermore, he can summon several Upper Moon demons, making him almost the most troublesome opponent for Doma.

In the original story, if Muzan had gathered the demons together and defeated the Demon Slayer Corps members one by one, the outcome of this battle might have been rewritten.

But he didn't do that, and he still hasn't.

"That was easy. It wasn't so easy for me to kill the Lower Moon back then."

With a single slash, Kurohime severed three ferocious demons and ran forward with Shinobu Kocho.

Appearing beside him were Iwaza, Hantengu, Gyutaro, and the Daki siblings, who had once belonged to Muzan.

Killing demons with demons is often fruitless. That's why Kurohime will emotionlessly send the three Upper Moons to hold off Doma, while she unleashes her killing move, continuously slashing off his body and slowly killing him by relying on the demon-resistant properties of her weapon.

Furthermore, Yafusa was imbued with sunlight magic by Rikka Takanashi, which meant that during actual combat, Yafusa with Kurome had additional damage against demons.

This time, Upper Moon Two Doma, this emotionless guy, will die an exceptionally frustrating death.

Chapter 182 The Death of Upper Moon Two

"Oh, here come two girls. They've finally appeared before me?"

Beside a wooden bridge over a pond, Doma, whose eyes bear the mark of Upper Moon Two, wore a slightly morbid smile. He was gnawing on a human arm, surrounded by bound humans whose expressions were pained, as if they had suffered immense terror before their deaths.

As Kurome and Shinobu appeared, the three Upper Moons also appeared in front of them.

"Hey, who are these people? Weren't you all dead?"

Upon seeing his former companions, Doma's face showed a look of shock.

However, Kuroko knew that everything this guy did was an act. In reality, he had no emotions, no understanding of joy, anger, sorrow, or happiness. Any happiness or grief he showed was just a facade to please others.

Upon seeing the newcomers, a girl on the ground showed a look of fear and pleading, reaching out her hand and crying out, "Save me, save us!"

This seemed to displease Doma, who reached out and attacked her. Shinobu Kocho then instantly flashed forward and rescued the girl from his grasp.

"Wow, that's fast! Are you a Pillar? Also, Hantengu... weren't you supposed to be loyal? How could you betray us? Gyutaro, what about you?"

Amidst the laughter, Douma gradually revealed an expression of sudden realization: "I understand now, you've been controlled, haven't you? To actually manage to wrest control from Lord Muzan, you're the real demons, aren't you?"

"Didn't Muzan tell you about the situation?" Kurohime drew his sword, Yafusa, his left leg slightly bent, assuming a battle stance.

This level of combat was nothing to her; the difficulty lay in the fact that her opponent was a demon with exceptional regenerative abilities. She needed to repeatedly cut and disrupt its regeneration before she could finally kill it.

Comparatively speaking, the Nichirin Blades of the Demon Slayer Corps can quickly eliminate demons, but their strength is clearly inferior to that of the Upper Moon demons in most cases.

This is also why Shinobu Kocho kept the poison inside her body, hoping to kill Doma by having him devour her: because ordinary poison had little effect on Doma.

However, now that Kurome is here, how could she possibly let such a thing as the destruction of the pillars happen?

"Doma, I'm here to take your life this time, and your three former comrades will also be fighting you."

Without wasting words, Kuroko immediately ordered Akaza to rush forward and unleash the final move, Blue-Eye Chaotic Remnant Light, at the opponent.

"You started with a finishing move. Was it necessary to treat me like this? It seems you have no loyalty to Lord Muzan anymore."

Doma had no choice but to defend. After this attack, both of them were injured, but because they were both Upper Moon demons, their recovery speed was extremely fast, and they were completely healed in almost no time.

"You're too strong. It's really going to be very difficult to deal with someone like you."

Black Eyes took a deep breath, the weapon in his hand gleaming coldly, then held his breath and charged forward.

Fighting Doma is extremely dangerous. Just getting close to him could cause frostbite to the respiratory tract due to the extremely low temperature and various ice crystals. Kurome, however, doesn't care because she is a clone and has Nightingale's healing abilities. Even if she only has a breath left, she can be brought back to life.

But she has to consider Shinobu Kocho.

At this moment, the girl was filled with grief and indignation because of her sister's death, and she began to want to rush forward regardless of her own safety.

With lightning speed, Kurohime executed a quick draw, the blade grazing Doma's neck before landing beside him.

"Shinobu, step back for now. Doma is very strong. If you can't bring him to the brink of death, you won't be able to deliver the final blow. After all... you also want to avenge your sister, right?"

Upon hearing this voice, Shinobu Kocho, recalling the deaths of the other Upper Moons, decided to trust Yukino and began to back away.

"give it to you."

In fact, she was capable of fighting him, but Kurome's words further provoked her. If she could deliver the final blow to Doma and witness her death alive, her sister's spirit in heaven would surely be comforted.

Thus, the scene became a battle between three Upper Moons and one Snow Pillar clone, with Upper Moon Two Doma in the lead.

Upper Moon was used to block Doma's ultimate attack and protect Kurome herself, while Kurome constantly threatened her opponents with her ever-increasing speed and unpredictable assassination techniques.

From the very beginning of the battle, Doma understood how formidable his opponent was.

"You are even more terrifying than I imagined. You can control ghosts and you also have great strength."

The restraining force at his neck made him realize that Yatsufusa was not a Nichirin Blade, but a far more terrifying weapon, one that seemed to emanate a faint whisper of life, as if it wanted to devour his life.

"Blood Demon Art, Lotus Leaf Ice!"

Doma unleashes his first deadly move.

This was an attack with a small range, but it simultaneously enveloped Akaza, Daki, and Kurome, who were approaching.

The two demons were naturally injured, but Hachifusa, with his black eyes, merely flashed a cold light and swung a few swords, easily neutralizing his power.

"The Breath of Insects, the Dance of Centipedes, the Belly of Centipedes."

Shinobu's skill is a fusion of superb footwork, which greatly enhances Kurome's speed.

As the two closed the distance, the unpredictable blade moved with incredible speed, piercing the other's neck.

Originally, the strongest part of this move was to inject venom into Doma, but now it's unnecessary. As long as the effect of Yafusa's restraint on wounds is applied, the opponent will naturally become weaker and weaker. At least at this moment, Doma's healing speed has already decreased significantly.

"Doma, you have no feelings, no joy, anger, sorrow or happiness. Your smile on the surface can't hide your emptiness and loneliness. You envy other people who have feelings because you can't experience them yourself."

During the battle, Kurohime made sure to say these words to distract him.

Whether or not it really worked, Doma's condition was getting worse and worse. Before he could even unleash many of his killing moves, he felt that the wounds on his body were beyond his expectations, and his body's recovery speed had dropped to the level of a lower moon.

"You really are strong. You're the real demon, aren't you? I shouldn't have any emotions, but just now... I think I understand what fear feels like."
