Infinity Starting with Hikaru no Go

Chen Anxia refuted these points.

First, the transformation from a human to a ghost is not 100% successful; the possibility of failure is greater than the possibility of success.

Secondly, ordinary cannibals could never turn a person into a cannibal.

To them, humans are merely food that makes them stronger; they will devour any human they encounter. Do not attempt to transform into cannibals through them.

The third is the cannibal's weakness.

However, while human words can be frightening, ghostly words are even more terrifying.

Although most players gave up the idea after being persuaded by themselves, some players still chose to abandon their human form and join the demon camp under the sweet talk of Taotie.

Chen Anxia knew that the only way to truly cut off this path was to make the players stronger.

Only when players become stronger, stronger than ordinary ogres, will they no longer have such a choice.

The way to make players stronger is naturally through the Breathing Technique!

......

Chapter 509 The Essence of Water, The Truth of Water

It's definitely not enough for Chen Anxia to spread the word on his own; he doesn't have that much time and energy to devote to it either.

Therefore, Chen Anxia plans to create a group of preachers to travel across the continent in his place and teach players the Water Breathing Technique.

The members of the homecoming organization were the preacher candidates selected by Chen Anxia.

In fact, Chen Anxia originally planned to wait until the Returning Home organization grew stronger and its members learned the breathing technique before sending them to spread the word, so that more players could learn the breathing technique and become stronger.

This is just bringing the plan forward.

After Chen Anxia finished speaking, the players present did not show any unusual reaction.

Clearly, they already knew about this.

After witnessing Chen Anxia's power, they all realized that humans are capable of becoming stronger on their own, and there is no need to risk so many flaws and dangers to mutate into ghosts.

After observing the reactions of the organization members, Chen Anxia continued, "The appearance of player-generated ghosts like Taotie means that the players' survival situation will become more difficult and uncertain."

"In this situation, our primary task is to become stronger, and to continuously become stronger."

"Only when we ourselves are strong enough, and when our player community is strong enough, can we calmly face the more difficult current situation and the uncertain future."

After a slight pause, Chen Anxia continued under the watchful eyes of the organization members, "This time I have returned with a method to make you stronger."

"I hope that after you become stronger, you can pass on this method to more players, making the player community strong enough to completely eliminate the possibility of players turning into ghosts."

Chen Anxia's words caused a stir among the players present.

Because these words contained an important piece of information: Chen Anxia brought back a method that could make players stronger, even stronger than cannibals.

Players who realized this were greatly encouraged and had even greater hope for the future.

Seeing this, Chen Anxia did not stop and continued, "Actually, I have been speculating about what the method for players to return is all this time."

"After much thought, I believe that the method for players to return is related to the name of this world, namely, Demon Slayer."

"The company behind the game 'Gate of Truth' certainly wouldn't choose a name randomly. The reason they chose this name is very likely because it contains some hidden information."

"It's like information such as, 'Completely eradicate the ghosts of this world, and you can return to reality'..."

If Chen Anxia's previous words were like throwing a large rock into a lake, creating a huge splash...

Chen Anxia's words were like a bomb thrown into a lake, creating a huge uproar.

The raging waves completely ignited the excitement of the players present.

"The way to return is to completely annihilate all the ghosts in this world, is that true!?"

"I believe in the leader!"

"I believe it's true too!"

"We've been overlooking the name of this world until now. Just like the leader said, the Gate of Truth game company doesn't name things randomly, so this possibility is very high!"

"A leader is a leader indeed; he actually found a way to return!"

"Great! We finally have something to look forward to! We finally have hope of returning home!"

"Wait a minute, if our method of returning is to completely annihilate the demons of this world, then aren't those players who abandoned their human form and joined the demon camp going against our path?!"

Now that you mention it, it's true!

"No, we must stop more players from becoming ghosts!"

......

Feeling the genuine enthusiasm and motivation of the players before him, Chen Anxia nodded gently.

This is the effect Chen Anxia wanted.

As for this guess, Chen Anxia had actually thought of it long ago.

However, Chen Anxia was not sure if her guess was true, so she had not brought it up before.

The reason Chen Anxia brought this up now is that he hopes to help the members of the Homecoming Organization establish a direction so that the power of the ghosts cannot infiltrate the Homecoming Organization.

After a while, once everyone had calmed down a bit, Chen Anxia spoke again, "The method I brought back this time is called the Water Breathing Technique."

"Breathing techniques are a general term for the skills that humans have developed in this world in order to fight against demons with human bodies."

"And this time when I return, I will stay in the organization for seven days."

"During these seven days, I will teach you the Water Breathing Technique without reservation."

"I hope that within these seven days, you will all be able to achieve the basics of Water Breathing..."

After hearing Chen Anxia's words, everyone present turned their attention to him, holding their breath and waiting for him to begin his teachings.

Chen Anxia didn't keep them waiting long and quickly began teaching the Water Breathing Technique.

"The principle of this breathing technique is to strengthen the heart and lungs, thereby allowing the blood to absorb a large amount of oxygen, which can instantly and dramatically increase physical abilities, resulting in a fully concentrated breathing technique with physical strength comparable to that of a demon..."

"Next, I will demonstrate the ten sword forms of the Water Breathing Technique..."

"Water Breathing - First Form - Water Surface Slash!"

"Water Breathing - Second Form - Waterwheel!"

......

"Water Breathing - Tenth Form - Life Flow!"

Under everyone's watchful eyes, a stream of azure water-like sword energy bloomed in the void as Chen Anxia wielded his Nichirin Blade.

The azure water-like sword energy looked breathtakingly beautiful amidst the moonlit wisteria sea.

But this kind of beauty is indeed deadly.

Because they saw that under the sword energy of the flowing water, wisteria trees, the earth, and rocks all became as fragile as paper.

Besides the deadly beauty, they also seemed to hear a voice called 'truth' from this flowing sword energy.

This voice, named 'Truth,' was telling them the truth about the flowing water and sword energy.

However, most people cannot hear it clearly and cannot understand the voice of truth.

Only the Holy Son of Ao was able to comprehend the truth of the flowing water and sword energy, and felt the meaning of the flowing water. His face showed a look of sudden realization and bewilderment.

The voice of truth that everyone present heard was actually the water-based artistic conception that Chen Anxia unleashed while practicing the Water Breathing Technique.

The concept of water is derived from Chen Anxia's understanding and perception of the water breathing method, and contains Chen Anxia's true understanding of the water breathing method.

Without a doubt, Chen Anxia, ​​who wields the power of water, is far more effective at spreading the teachings than a nurturer who does not.

Soon, Chen Anxia performed all ten sword forms of the Water Breathing Technique.

At the same time, Chen Anxia also noticed the situation of the Holy Son of Ao.

As for how to build it...

It's time to open Pandora's box of monster slaying and leveling up!

...

Chapter 510 Pioneering a New Method, the Hunt Begins!

As night deepened, all the Ghost Hunter candidates participating in the final Ghost Hunter test entered the depths of Tengxi Mountain, their goal being to survive there for seven days.

Tanjiro Kamado was naturally among them.

Meanwhile, within the Homecoming organization, apart from the players on duty, most of the other players had gone to rest.

As for Ao Shengzi, he was left behind by Chen Anxia.

Looking at the two worn-out Nichirin Blades, one long and one short, in the hands of the Holy Son, Chen Anxia said, "Come on, show me your Niten Ichi-ryu style."

Although the Holy Son of Oku didn't know what Chen Anxia was going to do, he completely trusted Chen Anxia and picked up the Nichirin Blade at his waist without hesitation, and began to use the Niten Ichi-ryu style.

Throughout this process, Chen Anxia watched silently from the side, a beautiful scene reflected in her deep eyes.

In this scene, amidst a sea of ​​wisteria blossoms bathed in pinkish-purple light under the moonlight, the Holy Child of the Osaka is dancing with twin swords.

Although the dance of the Holy Child was beautiful, it contained an unspoken crisis.

In Chen Anxia's eyes, every time Ao Shengzi wielded his twin swords, an invisible burst of energy would erupt, causing the wisteria tree beside him to tremble.

After an unknown amount of time, the Holy Son of Ao stopped and sheathed his twin swords.

After that, Ao Shengzi let out a soft breath before walking towards Chen Anxia, ​​his heart filled with anticipation and trepidation, wondering what kind of evaluation Chen Anxia would give.

Amidst the anticipation and trepidation of the Holy Son, Chen Anxia spoke up, "Lend me your twin swords for a moment."

Upon hearing this, Ao Shengzi was taken aback, but without hesitation, he drew his twin swords from his waist again and handed them to Chen Anxia.

After receiving the twin swords from the Holy Son of Ao, Chen Anxia walked to the place where the Holy Son of Ao had danced before.

Under the watchful eyes of the Holy Son, Chen Anxia adopted a starting stance that felt both familiar and unfamiliar to him.

Before Ao Shengzi could think any further, Chen Anxia had already begun wielding his twin swords.

As Chen Anxia moved, Ao Shengzi's expression gradually changed, from initial stunnedness to surprise, and then to shock.
