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

An hour and a half.

"The seventy-eighth."

Tanjiro Kamado let out a breath, and burst out with all his inner strength, almost going around the entire Wisteria Mountain and eliminating all the evil spirits.

Now there is only one red dot left.

It has to be said that human potential is forced out. In order to obtain the method that Lin Yu mentioned, Tanjiro Kamado almost mobilized all the internal strength in his body.

At the same time, he used every inch of his internal strength sparingly, and in the process, tried to improve the way he used his internal strength.

For example, he discovered that if he wanted to speed up, he didn't need to pour all his internal energy into the area below his calves. He only needed to pour his internal energy into the muscles that needed to exert force.

Although the speed will be slower, the use of internal force is greatly reduced.

By learning from this, Tanjiro Kamado also figured out how to use his internal energy on the blade to kill evil spirits.

These are things he couldn't feel during his normal training.

As expected, what the master said was right. If you want to improve your skills, you have to improve them in battle.

"There is one last one. Half an hour should be enough, but this evil ghost looks a little special."

Tanjiro Kamado studied the map in his mind.

Why did he put this evil ghost last?
The answer is not only that the opponent is in the corner, but also that there is only one of them and it occupies a large area.

The other evil spirits seemed to have a tacit understanding and left a huge space for each other.

Evil ghosts all have a certain sense of territory, which means that this single evil ghost alone occupies a large area.

This at least proves that the other party should be the strongest among these evil spirits.

"The strongest one?"

Tanjiro Kamado did not show any fear. Instead, he was looking forward to having an equally powerful opponent.

He went straight towards the red dot.

Soon, he was only about a hundred meters away from the ghost.

His sensitive facial senses allowed him to hear the noisy sounds in the territory from hundreds of meters away.

There were screams, sounds of fighting, and roars...

Tanjiro Kamado frowned, wondering if the ghost had already started fighting with the evil ghost.

After walking forward for a few dozen meters, they vaguely saw a huge black shadow standing in the woods. At the same time, a burst of hurried footsteps sounded, and a figure came running towards them.

Tanjiro Kamado remembered this figure very clearly. He had seen him on the top of the mountain before. At that time, Tanjiro Kamado also noticed that the man had a fighting spirit on his face.

But now, that strong fighting spirit has completely disappeared, and instead, there is a fear that penetrates deep into the soul.

The moment he saw Tanjiro Kamado, he opened his mouth:

"Hurry up, the ghost behind you won't appear in the trial at all..."

Before he finished his words, a swift black shadow came from the huge black shadow behind him and instantly wrapped around the fleeing man's head.

Tanjiro Kamado could see clearly that it was not a black shadow at all, but a huge blue hand. The fingers of the hand were clasped on the throat of the fleeing man, making him unable to make any sound.

He could only use some simple lip movements to make a silent request to Tanjiro Kamado.

A cold light flashed in Tanjiro Kamado's eyes, and he stepped on the ground in an instant, and the whole person flew up. He raised his hand and slashed with his sword. A cold light passed by, and the green palm suddenly fell with a bang.

The escapee had escaped death and had no intention of expressing gratitude, so he just crawled away.

Tanjiro Kamado stood there without moving, because the black shadow opposite was approaching him rapidly.

While the dark shadow was still hidden by the trees, Tanjiro Kamado could already smell a strong fishy odor.

He frowned. The strong fishy smell meant that the other party had eaten countless people and ghosts.

He must kill this ghost.

He clenched his hand around the knife.

The black shadow also knocked down several large trees and came in front of Tanjiro Kamado.

Tanjiro Kamado's pupils shrank slightly, because the existence in front of him could no longer be called a human being, but a "monster" made up of giant hands entangled together.

The overlapping giant hands surged like tentacles, wantonly destroying everything around them.

Tanjiro Kamado frowned as he observed the other person, because he had not yet found where the other person's head was.

It is now late at night. If we can't find the end, I'm afraid the battle will last far longer than the time set by Lin Yu.

"Oh, I was wondering who was disturbing my hunting, it turned out to be you."

At this moment, a voice full of malice appeared, and among the overlapping giant hands, a green face appeared like the receding tide.

He let out a strange laugh and stared at Tanjiro Kamado with ill intentions.

"you know me?"

Tanjiro Kamado was not in a hurry to move. The only evil spirits he had seen before were humanoid ones. This was his first time facing this non-human monster and he was still a little unsure.

As he observed, he found a giant curled up hand under the other person's head, and the arm was wrapped around the part below the chin.

This actually made Tanjiro Kamado feel a little more relieved. After all, if it was protected, it would prove to a certain extent that that was the opponent's most fatal part.

However, Tanjiro Kamado did not believe it completely.

After all, some people's hearts are on the right side. If it is a ghost, it is not impossible to fake a neck.

"Hehe, how could I forget? I remember this mask of yours even in my dreams."

"I can tell from the first glance that you are the disciple of the Water Pillar, right?"

Tanjiro Kamado was stunned for a moment and asked in confusion:

"Water column?"

The hand ghost was also stunned, and countless hands became more entangled:
"Hmm? Isn't it? The water column is no longer Urokodaki now?"

"Mr. Urokodaki? He used to be a water pillar?"

Tanjiro Kamado was a little surprised. He naturally knew that the Pillar-level swordsmen were the most powerful in the Demon Slayer Corps, but he did not expect that Urokodaki Sakonji would be the Water Pillar.

"Wow, it seems like a long time has passed. Could it be that the guy has grown old?"

The hand ghost had been in the same environment for a long time, and his concept of time had begun to blur. He began to count on his fingers:

"One, two... thirteen. Hehehe, that's right. I killed thirteen of his disciples. This guy has taught so many disciples. He must be old now."

A total of three palms were spread out, with thirteen fingers stretched out, and the hand ghost laughed.

Tanjiro Kamado's eyes suddenly widened, and he suddenly thought of Satsuki and Makomo.

His previous guesses matched the current situation. He was wondering how they could die in the trial when the evil ghosts were so weak. The swordsmanship of Xuantu and Zhengu was not too weak. It turned out that they all died at the hands of a ghost.

"Oh it's you."

Tanjiro Kamado's voice became low, and beneath the suppressed voice was a surging anger.

"Haha, now you finally know how your brothers and sisters died, right? Ever since I was captured by Urokodaki and put into this cage, I have been thinking about breaking free and taking revenge on Urokodaki. Unfortunately, I can't escape at all, so I can only kill you, Urokodaki's disciples."

Seeing that Tanjiro Kamado was completely affected by his emotions, the hand demon continued to smile, and the palms wrapped around him kept trembling:

"I still vaguely remember two people who left a deep impression on me. One was a boy with superb swordsmanship, and the other was a girl with an agile figure. Their smells..."

Before he could finish his words, the hand demon suddenly discovered that Tanjiro Kamado had disappeared in front of him.

He was startled and looked around immediately, but did not see Tanjiro Kamado. The next second, he felt something and looked up suddenly.

There he saw a figure holding the Sun Blade high in his hand.

Water Breathing: Takitsubo Form 8!
The sword skills that he had practiced countless times were displayed in the hands of Tanjiro Kamado, but if Urokotaki was here, he would be surprised to find that Tanjiro Kamado was extremely fast, and the blade in his hand had fallen in almost the blink of an eye.

It was too late for the Hand Ghost to dodge completely, and he could only control his many arms to shift his body a few inches.

The next second, Tanjiro Kamado fell from the sky and his blade landed on the left side of the hand demon.

The hand ghost's body seemed to be hit by a heavy hammer, and his body sank suddenly. At the same time, the impact point exploded with a bang, and countless pieces of flesh and arm fragments flew everywhere.

Just by contact, such an effect has been achieved, and it is far from over.

Tanjiro Kamado roared, holding the blade in his hand, flipped his body again and spun in the air.

Water Breathing: Waterwheel Type 2!
It should have been a natural attack, but at this moment it was launched in a brutal and unreasonable manner in Tanjiro Kamado's hand. The quick slash landed on the wound of the hand demon and went straight down, completely cutting the opponent's body open.

The whole process took just a few seconds.

The hand ghost's eyes widened. He had just thought that Tanjiro Kamado would be in a panic under his attack, but now he completely understood that the young man in front of him was completely different from the previous ones.

He only felt countless pressure coming from the opponent, just like when he faced Urokodaki Sakonji, no, even worse than before!

If this goes on, he will die!

The hand ghost was panicked, and subconsciously, all the hands around him started moving.

He wanted to use numbers to attack the opponent in order to find the opponent's blind spot.

He has used this tactic many times and it has always worked.

But he must have miscalculated this time.

The Nichirin sword in Tanjiro Kamado's hand seemed to have eyes, cutting off all palms regardless of the direction.

At this time, Tanjiro Kamado no longer had any sword skills, and his only skill was extremely fast. The extremely fast sword formed an airtight cover around Tanjiro Kamado.

In a short while, all of the hand ghost's hands were chopped off.

The hand ghost was shocked throughout the whole process. He had never seen such a speed in his life.

When he came to his senses, he found that the arms he was so proud of had been cut off, and the only thing left was the arm he had left to protect himself.

"Are you ready for me to chop off your head?"

In shock, the hand ghost heard the deep voice of Tanjiro Kamado.

He raised his head and found that his opponent was already standing in front of him with a sword in hand. The raised blade was so close to him that it seemed that he could cut off his neck with just a slight move.

Of course, his current bloated body has a disadvantage, which is that he moves too slowly now, otherwise he would have devoured all the ghosts here long ago.

Faced with an existence like Tanjiro Kamado, he certainly couldn't escape.

In other words, he is now in a desperate situation.

In desperate situation, his survival instinct made him feel endless anger.

He has been working diligently to devour humans for so many years, just to be able to break through here one day and take revenge on Urokodaki Sakonji.

Now he is actually going to die at the hands of the opponent's disciples?

He roared:
"Impossible! I have strengthened my neck countless times over the years. Do you think you can cut off my neck?"

He released all the arms that were protecting his body, and clenched the palms at the ends of these arms into fists, smashing towards Tanjiro Kamado.

The hand demon was gambling that as long as Tanjiro Kamado's sword could not cut off his head, he would be able to smash Tanjiro Kamado into meat paste. In this way, he would not only survive, but also achieve the achievement of killing all fourteen disciples of Urokodaki.

"die!"

He roared angrily, but to Tanjiro Kamado's ears it sounded like a shrill cry.

If you look closely, you can see that although there is anger hidden in Tanjiro Kamado's eyes, deeper inside is endless calm.

Staying calm during a fight is something Lin Yu has always taught Tanjiro Kamado.

Tanjiro Kamado would naturally not let his reasoning be affected by the so-called anger.

He looked at the evil ghost's neck that was so close to him and the fist that was about to fall, and there was no trace of panic in his eyes.

In addition to Lin Yu's teachings, this is also due to his own self-confidence.

Because in his eyes, the hand ghost's speed was too slow.

In battle, if you are slow by one step, you will be slow everywhere.

And Tanjiro Kamado is much faster than Tekken.

So Tanjiro Kamado had almost no hesitation, and the Nichirin Sword in his hand had already slashed out, hitting the opponent's arm that was protecting his neck.

Then he changed direction without any hindrance and slashed countless times in several directions.

After doing all this, Tanjiro Kamado calmly put away his sword and dropped it to the ground.

At this moment, it was as if time had stopped, and the hand ghost's body completely stopped moving.

Until a gust of wind blew, countless blood lines emerged on the already broken body of the hand ghost. Blood suddenly appeared, and the evil ghost broke into countless pieces and fell to the ground.

A trace of blood also fell on Tanjiro Kamado's face.

He looked down and found the hand ghost's head rolling at his feet.

There was still disbelief in the hand ghost's eyes, which disappeared completely as the head turned into ashes.

Tanjiro Kamado sheathed his sword.

He felt a little disappointed. He could still see despair and a desire to live in the other person's eyes, and he couldn't help but feel pity for him.

He actually knew very well that these ghosts were once human beings, but when they succumbed to their desires and ate humans, they could never come back.

Therefore, the only outcome they faced was being beheaded.

Pity would not stop him from having the killing intent in his heart. (End of this chapter)
