Fox Demon: God rewards hard work, I will eventually master martial arts and become a god

Tanjiro Kamado's journey has not been an easy one.

Nezuko didn't want to be exposed to the sun at all, so the two of them could only hurry on their journey when the sun went down.

Of course, these difficulties are nothing to Tanjiro Kamado.

Instead, the mysterious body-refining technique given to him by the mysterious person in his mind caused him a lot of trouble.

Because the various formulas contained words that he didn't know and were difficult to understand, he could only ask Lin Yu carefully every time.

Although Lin Yu, who seemed to have a bad temper, helped him answer these questions every time, but in return, Lin Yu had many more requirements for him.

It was another day of daily travel. Although the nights were long in early winter, the thick snow and low temperature forced Tanjiro Kamado to walk and listen for a while.

This was often the time when he listened to Lin Yu explain the body refining technique.

Lin Yu's voice echoed in his mind for almost an hour. When he came back to his senses from Lin Yu's explanation, he found that a ray of light appeared in the cave he was in.

Dawn was breaking outside.

Tanjiro Kamado subconsciously looked at Nezuko beside him, and immediately found that she was carefully avoiding the sunlight and looking at him timidly.

"Okay, let's rest here first, and then we'll continue our journey when it gets dark."

Tanjiro Kamado smiled and patted Nezuko's head.

Nezuko nodded and curled up in the corner without moving.

"Okay, let's get started here too."

At the same time, Lin Yu's voice sounded again in Tanjiro Kamado's mind.

The other party's face suddenly froze.

"It's been so many days. Is it going to be like this every day?"

"Of course, such cold weather only occurs in winter."

Lin Yu took it for granted.

Tanjiro Kamado gritted his teeth and began to take off his upper body clothes, revealing his still strong body.

Then he walked into the snow and began waving his arms methodically.

Each punch drove the air to flow in the cold air.

This is just the most common boxing technique without any extraordinary effects. Naturally, it is not difficult for Tanjiro Kamado.

But from the moment he took off his clothes, the cold began to deprive him of his body temperature.

Feeling the loss of body temperature, Tanjiro Kamado's arms gradually became stiff. His heavy breathing also accelerated the cold air taking away the temperature from his lungs, making him feel as if his lungs were stabbed.

But he couldn't help but think of what Lin Yu said before:

“If you want to ensure that you can keep punching in this environment, you have to be fast.”

Subconsciously, Tanjiro Kamado increased the speed of his punches.

He didn't stop until he had punched a thousand times, gasping for breath.

Now I saw that his whole body was emitting heat and sweat was constantly flowing down from the surface of his skin.

However, despite being tired, Tanjiro Kamado did not dare to slack off in the slightest and hurried back to the cave he had just entered.

Although the body's metabolism raises the body temperature after strenuous exercise, when the metabolism returns to normal levels, the alternation between cold and heat will definitely cause you to catch a cold and get sick.

After the first exercise, if the mysterious man hadn’t lit a fire in front of me, I would have fallen ill that day.

However, after gaining experience, Tanjiro Kamado will consciously collect some dry firewood.

When we entered the cave, we found that a fire had already started in the cave.

Nezuko, who had just been hiding in a corner without moving, was busy lighting the fire.

"Oh, Nezuko, you are really capable."

Tanjiro Kamado made an exclamation sound, smiled and touched Nezuko's head.

After traveling for this period of time, he has discovered that Nezuko's temperament is almost the same as before.

He just couldn't speak, but his physical strength also increased a lot.

Seems like you've become more capable?

Roasting by the fire and feeling his body gradually warming up, Tanjiro Kamado's thoughts wandered.

After traveling for such a long time, he naturally passed through several villages. He consciously inquired about the news about ghosts and had learned a lot.

Although many of these news are hearsay, without exception, ghosts are described as extremely cruel monsters by people.

Now that Nezuko has become a demon, she has not changed much from before. Tanjiro Kamado has realized that Nezuko may be very special.

"Could it be that the mysterious person helped?"

Tanjiro Kamado guessed.

Just as this thought came to his mind, a new voice sounded in his mind:
"Your guess is only half right."

Lin Yu appeared like a ghost, but Tanjiro Kamado had gradually gotten used to Lin Yu's elusiveness, so he was not scared at all. Instead, he waited quietly for Lin Yu's next move.

"Your sister is very special. Although I took action, I only accelerated the process of your sister regaining consciousness."

Lin Yu told the truth, he was not afraid that Tanjiro Kamado would have other thoughts.

Not to mention that the other party had no ability to resist in his hands, just the fact that after so many days of getting along with each other, there was absolutely no problem with Tanjiro Kamado's character.

"I see, but why can't my sister still speak?"

Tanjiro Kamado didn't think about anything else at all, and his whole mind was focused on Nezuko.

"Mental abnormalities can be eliminated, but physical changes are irreversible. It can be said that your sister is now physically no different from a ghost."

Lin Yu explained carefully.

The main reason is that he is very bored now.

The pocket-sized alien demon had died long ago. The substances in Nezuko's blood had a significant effect on the alien demon, and it died completely on the second day.

Before Lin Yu had the time to study too many things, the extraterritorial demon died.

"Then can my sister turn back into a human?"

Tanjiro Kamado suddenly became nervous and frowned deeply.

"You're wrong. In fact, ghosts can still be considered a kind of human." Lin Yu said coldly, "It's just that their habit is to eat people. To put it bluntly, they are born with malice towards humans."

"So, there are ghosts who are friendly to humans?"

Tanjiro Kamado was thoughtful.

"It doesn't matter whether it's a ghost or not. What matters is whether those intelligent beings have ill will towards you. If you encounter those who want to kill you, just kill them directly."

Lin Yu sneered: "Sometimes people can be scarier than ghosts."

As soon as Lin Yu finished speaking, Tanjiro Kamado felt a strong murderous intent coming towards him.

Although he subconsciously disliked killing people, Tanjiro Kamado felt that what Lin Yu said made sense.

"Okay, you will naturally encounter these things later. What's important now is that your first phase of training is over."

Lin Yu naturally knew that Tanjiro Kamado was against killing people, but he didn't care, because some things need to be experienced before they can be understood. Now, what is more important for Tanjiro Kamado is to improve his strength.

"it's over?"

Tanjiro Kamado was stunned for a moment, then he subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief. Although he knew that Lin Yu must have his reasons for doing this, such a painful way still left him with lingering fears.

Now that he heard Lin Yu say it was over, he couldn't help but feel a little happy.

"It's just that you don't have to punch anymore. The training from now on will only be harder." Lin Yu smiled, "If you can't hold on, you don't have to do it."

Hearing that it would be even more difficult in the future, Tanjiro Kamado's face froze.

But after thinking for a while, Tanjiro Kamado's eyes became firm. He looked at Nezuko who remained motionless after being patted on the head, and said firmly:
"No matter how hard it is, I will persevere. Revenge requires strength, right?"

Hearing what Tanjiro Kamado said, Lin Yu nodded with satisfaction.

After spending so many days together, Lin Yu naturally knew that Tanjiro Kamado had a pure heart. Once he made up his mind, he would be steadfast and would do things directly from his heart.

From the perspective of character, this kind of person is born to practice martial arts.

"Okay then," Lin Yu nodded, "After this, I will formally teach you how to practice. What you learned before was just foundation building, but what you learned later will be considered real skills."

Having said that, Lin Yu paused. Tanjiro Kamado knew what Lin Yu meant.

He immediately knelt on the ground and said loudly:

"Master, please accept my disciple's bow."

Lin Yu was very satisfied with Tanjiro Kamado's performance.

"Very good. I will tell you how to do it in the next training. However, before the next training, you need to prepare as much food as possible."

Tanjiro Kamado is already a teenager and it is the time for him to grow. Now he needs to increase the intensity of his training in the future, so he naturally needs to supplement his nutrition in time.

"But we have been traveling for so many days, and the money we brought from home is not enough."

Tanjiro Kamado was a little embarrassed.

He didn't know how long it would take him to reach Narrow Mist Mountain. He had been very careful with his money and spent the minimum amount every day. Now that Lin Yu asked him to prepare as much food as possible, he naturally didn't have enough money.

"Don't worry, I have a way."

Lin Yu pretended to be mysterious and Tanjiro Kamado didn't ask any more questions.

Soon, he was enveloped by deep sleepiness and fell into a deep sleep.

When I woke up again, the snow had stopped, but the snow was deeper. The previous traces had been covered by new snow. It was dark, and I was hungry.

Tanjiro Kamado could actually feel that his appetite had slowly grown over the past few days.

He always felt hungry when he was on the road every day. Now that he heard that Lin Yu had a solution, he was naturally very excited.

He couldn't help but ask:
"Master, what shall we do today?"

"It's not far from the next town. I'll take you there tonight to do some work."

Lin Yu's voice rang out on time.

Tanjiro Kamado nodded without any doubt, and called out to Nezuko to go with him.

The two disappeared in the snow.

…………

Snow fell again, and noisy sounds came from the gambling house in the town.

But these were not laughter, but screams.

A group of young people in the town owed a huge debt. They were desperate and got together and decided to attack the gambling house.

They broke into the gambling house and smashed everything. When they saw people in the gambling house, they stabbed them with hoes and sickles.

The gambling house naturally would not give up, and soon a group of people gathered together. The two gangs, totaling dozens of people, fought together, resulting in a melee.

At this moment, no one noticed that two figures quietly mixed into the melee scene.

"Master, are you sure there is no problem?"

Tanjiro Kamado felt a little uneasy facing such a chaotic scene.

"I'll watch you, just do as I say."

Lin Yu said.

"That's not what I'm talking about."

Tanjiro Kamado clenched the axe in his hand. If he did as Lin Yu had just said to him, there would definitely be a massacre.

"I know what you're talking about. But as I said before, some people may not be human. Do you think the people who are fighting with each other now are good people?"

Lin Yu said coldly:
"The people in the gambling house are cruel and ruthless. They have forced many people to death in order to collect debts. These desperate gamblers not only sold their wives for gambling, but now they are also going to kill people violently."

"Everyone here has a way to die."

"Although your goal is to seize the money in the gambling house, getting rid of these people can also be regarded as getting rid of harm to the town."

After listening to Lin Yu's words, Tanjiro Kamado was still hesitant.

At this moment, a gambler killed a gambling house clerk. He was so angry that he looked around and found Tanjiro Kamado, who was a complete stranger.

He immediately swung the long sword he had just snatched from the waiter and slashed at Tanjiro Kamado.

Tanjiro Kamado, who had his back to the gambler, did not notice it, but Nezuko, who was standing next to him, noticed it and kicked the gambler away.

The gambler vomited blood and fell to the ground, but got up again after a while.

He cursed and aimed his sights at Nezuko, swinging his sword at her.

When Tanjiro Kamado noticed this scene, the scene he had seen in his home before suddenly emerged in his mind.

Hatred surged, his eyes became bloodshot, and his hesitant heart completely calmed down. He raised the hand axe at his waist and chopped it down on the opponent's back with a clean blow.

Blood splattered, the hand axe was deeply inserted into the opponent's body, and blood splattered on Tanjiro Kamado's face.

The gambler screamed and fell to the ground, soon dying.

Tanjiro Kamado's mind went blank. He didn't expect that a life would disappear in his hands so easily.

"See, this is the true face of these people. If you don't deal with him, you and Nezuko will die."

Lin Yu said coldly, and every word he said sounded like thunder in Tanjiro Kamado's ears.

He suddenly understood something.

Just as his family was so gentle, they were also inexplicably attacked by ghosts. Now, he was just standing here, and the gambler was going to kill him and Nezuko.

He had already seen clearly that the people in front of him were the same ghosts that had inexplicably attacked his family.

In order to protect your family from harm, you must take action first!
Tanjiro Kamado was angry, but calmer.

He now finds that his movements have become much more precise after daily training. The movements of those who have not received combat training appear extremely clumsy in his eyes.

Plus what Lin Yu just said to him.

He suddenly felt that dealing with so many people was not that difficult. (End of this chapter)
