Infinity Starting with Hikaru no Go

As for other breathing techniques, Chen Anxia wanted them too, but the place names in the original work were very scarce.

As of now, Chen Anxia only knows the address where Urokodaki Sakonji is living in seclusion.

Therefore, Chen Anxia had no choice but to come to Xiawu Mountain first.

Then I'll try to get the addresses of other trainers through Urokodaki Sakonji.

Upon arriving at Narrow Mist Mountain, Chen Anxia did not rush into the mountain. Instead, he took a deep breath at the foot of the mountain and stepped into the territory of Narrow Mist Mountain with a solemn expression.

Kyoko Tsugikuni, who had been silently following Chen Anxia, ​​still retained her ability to think independently, even though she had become a ghost.

This was the first time that Kyoko Tsugikuni had seen Chen Anxia with such an expression, and she couldn't help but feel curious, but she obediently didn't ask any more questions.

As for Qian Weiyang, who was only one and a half years old, she had been in poor spirits due to the continuous journey and was now fast asleep in Jiguo Jingzi's arms.

To be honest, Chen Anxia really enjoyed watching Qian Weiyang's sleeping face.

Chen Anxia felt that Qian Weiyang's adorable sleeping face could heal people's hearts without them even realizing it.

Here, Chen Anxia, ​​leading Kyoko Tsugikuni and Miyo Inui, had barely stepped into the Sagiri Mountain territory when Urokodaki Sakonji, who was living in seclusion in a wooden house at the foot of Sagiri Mountain, seemed to sense something. His brows furrowed slightly, and he murmured, "This scent..."

"There are ghosts, and people, and um, babies..."

With that, Urokodaki Sakonji glanced inside the room, then stood up and vanished in a flash.

Soon, Urokodaki Sakonji followed the scent and found Chen Anxia and the other two.

However, Urokodaki Sakonji did not show himself. Instead, he silently observed from a corner, his expression revealing an uncontrollable shock and disbelief.

The reason why Urokodaki Sakonji felt shocked and incredulous was not because of the strange human-demon combination of Chen Anxia, ​​Tsugikuni Kyoko, and Inui Miyo.

To be honest, Sakonji Urokodaki has developed a certain immunity to the human-demon combination.

Two years ago, Sakonji Urokodaki encountered Tanjiro Kamado and Nezuko Kamado, a human-demon duo.

Sakonji Urokodaki not only took Tanjiro Kamado in as a disciple, but also took care of Nezuko Kamado, who had become a demon and was in a coma all day.

What truly shocked and amazed Urokodaki Sakonji was that it was daytime, and a bright, sunny day at that.

Under the scorching sun, Kyoko Tsugikuni, a demon, was able to move freely. She didn't feel any discomfort whatsoever, let alone turn to ashes in the sunlight.

This completely contradicted Urokodaki Sakonji's understanding of demons, causing a great upheaval in his mind.

Just then, Chen Anxia stopped and looked at the big tree beside him. With a solemn expression, he said, "Come out."

Because the Transparent World was always open, Chen Anxia had already noticed Urokodaki Sakonji's presence when he approached.

However, Urokodaki Sakonji was unaware of this and thought he had hidden it very well.

However, Urokodaki Sakonji, who was initially shaken by Kyoko Tsugikuni, calmed down after hearing Chen Anxia's words.

Without hesitation, Urokodaki Sakonji slowly emerged from behind the large tree.

In Kyoko's eyes, a mysterious old man wearing a tengu mask slowly emerged from behind a large tree.

Although the mysterious old man was unremarkable, he posed a great threat to Kyoko Tsugikuni, causing her to instantly become alert and her original human body to begin to transform into a demon.

Chen Anxia sensed the change in Kyoko Tsugikuni, but instead of turning around, he called out, "Kyoko."

Under Urokodaki Sakonji's astonished gaze, Kyoko Tsugikuni, who was about to turn into a demon, actually calmed down after Chen Anxia called out to her.

This time, Urokodaki Sakonji finally couldn't contain his curiosity and confusion, and looked at Chen Anxia, ​​asking, "Who are you? What is your purpose in coming here?"

As he spoke, Urokodaki Sakonji turned his gaze to Tsugikuni Kyoko and continued to ask, "And what's her situation? Why is she able to move freely in the sunlight?"

Through the Transparent World, Chen Anxia was able to sense the fighting spirit, or killing intent, that Urokodaki Sakonji was trying his best to conceal.

The murderous intent was so terrifying that it sent shivers down Chen Anxia's spine, and a strong sense of threat welled up in his heart.

Using the Eye of Analysis (incomplete), Chen Anxia analyzed the data information of Urokodaki Sakonji.

According to the data from the incomplete Eye of Analysis, Urokodaki Sakonji is now 72 years old and his overall physical condition is no longer at its peak.

However, although Urokodaki Sakonji's overall physical abilities are not at their peak, he is still stronger than an ordinary person.

Moreover, Chen Anxia knew that Urokodaki Sakonji's true strength did not lie in his overall physical abilities.

Sakonji Urokodaki's true strength lies in his extensive experience in countless battles, his unfathomable Water Breathing technique, and his unique and keen sense of smell, just like Tanjiro Kamado's.

This unique and keen sense of smell endows Urokodaki Sakonji with the ability not only to judge a person's emotions by their scent, but also to distinguish a demon disguised as a human.

You can even smell the gaps on the ghost's body that represent its weaknesses.

Therefore, Urokodaki Sakonji's strength is beyond doubt.

Even Chen Anxia, ​​who has now opened the Transparent World, does not have absolute confidence that he can defeat Urokodaki Sakonji.

Chen Anxia was unaware of the current timeline, and did not know whether Urokodaki Sakon had met Kamado Tanjiro and Kamado Nezuko, the brother and sister pair, for the first time.

Therefore, in Chen Anxia's predicted future, there is a possibility that he will have a chance to meet Urokodaki Sakon again because of Tsugikuni Kyoko.

This is why Chen Anxia would prepare himself mentally before entering the mountains.

At this moment, after hearing Urokodaki Sakonji's question, Chen Anxia secretly breathed a sigh of relief and then said, "My name is Chen Anxia. I came here specifically to learn the Water Breathing Technique in order to become the strongest demon slayer."

As she spoke, Chen Anxia first glanced at Kyoko Tsugikuni and Miyo Inui behind her, and then, under the watchful gaze of Sakonji Urokodaki, slowly recounted what had happened to them.

Even Urokodaki Sakonji, who had witnessed countless human tragedies, couldn't help but be moved at this moment and couldn't help but feel deep respect for Tsugikuni Kyoko's great maternal love.

At the same time, Urokodaki Sakonji's gaze towards Tsugikuni Kyoko softened, and the killing intent in his heart disappeared.

However, Urokodaki Sakonji was still puzzled and couldn't understand how Tsugikuni Kyoko was able to do it.

Chen Anxia noticed Urokodaki Sakonji's confusion and, without beating around the bush, looked at him with her deep eyes and said, "Kyoko's special nature may be related to her surname."

As she spoke, amidst Urokodaki Sakonji's curious gaze, Chen Anxia continued, "Her surname is... Tsugikuni!"

Upon hearing this, Urokodaki Sakonji was taken aback at first, then as if he had realized something, his eyes widened suddenly, his pupils trembled, and he murmured involuntarily, "Tsugukuni... Tsugukuni..."

"Could she be that legendary figure... Yoriichi Tsugikuni...?"

......

Chapter 492 The Truth of What Happened Back Then, A Shocking Killing Intent! (Please Subscribe!)

In this world, perhaps only the surname 'Tsugikuni' could elicit such a reaction from Urokodaki Sakonji, who has already tasted all the flavors of life.

Kyoko Tsugikuni, who possesses independent thinking abilities, couldn't help but look puzzled after seeing Sakonji Urokodaki's reaction.

Because she became a demon, Kyoko Tsugikuni's overall physical abilities were greatly enhanced, including her hearing.

Therefore, Kyoko Tsugikuni heard Sakonji Urokodaki's mutterings and the name 'Yoichi Tsugikuni'.

However, judging from Kyoko Tsugikuni's expression and reaction, she was clearly unfamiliar with Yoriichi Tsugikuni, as if she knew nothing about this legendary figure.

Amidst Kyoko Tsugikuni's bewilderment, Sakonji Urokodaki took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down.

Throughout this, Urokodaki Sakonji's gaze couldn't help but drift towards Tsugikuni Kyoko, thinking to himself, 'If she truly is a descendant of Tsugikuni Yoriichi, with his blood flowing through her veins, then her fearlessness of sunlight becomes understandable.'

'In legend, Yoriichi Tsugikuni possessed the power of the sun, making him the strongest demon slayer in history and the only one to corner Muzan Kibutsuji...'

Thinking about it, Urokodaki Sakonji couldn't help but look at Chen Anxia, ​​his eyes flashing with incomprehension and confusion.

Chen Anxia's previous words revealed that he not only knew that he was living in seclusion in the Sagiri Mountains, but also knew about Yoriichi Tsugikuni.

Logically speaking, only members of the Demon Slayer Corps should know this information.

Although Chen Anxia carried a sword, he was not wearing the Demon Slayer Corps' uniform. Furthermore, Chen Anxia's purpose in coming here was to learn the Water Breathing Technique.

Therefore, Chen Anxia is clearly not a member of the Demon Slayer Corps.

If Chen Anxia is a member of the Demon Slayer Corps, it means that Chen Anxia has passed the final test of the Demon Slayer Corps.

Anyone who is able to participate in the final Demon Slayer test must have been recommended by a Demon Slayer Corps trainer and learned breathing techniques from that trainer.

A demon slayer can only master one breathing technique; this is an unspoken rule of the Demon Slayer Corps.

This is not only because trying to do too much at once is counterproductive, but also because breathing techniques are difficult to switch between in combat, let alone combine or integrate.

Over the years, Sakonji Urokodaki had also seen several genius demon slayers who attempted to combine and integrate various breathing techniques.

But the final result is either giving up or something goes wrong, backfiring on oneself and causing irreversible consequences to the body.

Therefore, Sakonji Urokodaki was able to conclude that Anxia Chen was not a member of the Demon Slayer Corps.

So, where did Chen Anxia get this information from?

Chen Anxia noticed Urokodaki Sakonji's confusion and bewilderment.

Chen Anxia also knew that the players' existence would inevitably be exposed.

However, Chen Anxia is not prepared to reveal that he is a player.

It wasn't that Chen Anxia didn't trust Urokodaki Sakonji, nor that Chen Anxia had any concerns about the players' identities; rather, explaining the players' identities seemed too troublesome to Chen Anxia.

Chen Anxia didn't want to waste time on this.

Without responding to Urokodaki Sakonji's confusion and bewilderment, Chen Anxia handed two broken Nichirin Blades to Urokodaki Sakonji.

Urokodaki Sakonji looked puzzled, but still reached out and took the two Nichirin swords.

The moment Urokodaki Sakonji received the Nichirin Blades, he knew they were not ordinary swords, but Nichirin Blades used by demon slayers.

This fact surprised Urokodaki Sakonji.

Before Urokodaki Sakonji could think any further, he saw the names engraved on the ends of the two Nichirin Blades: Sabito and Makomo.

Upon seeing this, Urokodaki Sakonji's body trembled uncontrollably, his eyes instantly turning red, and he asked in a trembling voice, "How did these two Nichirin Blades end up in your hands?"

Upon hearing this, Chen Anxia replied directly, "Sabito and Makomo, your former disciples, unfortunately lost their lives while participating in the final test of the Tengxi Mountain Ghost Hunter."

As he spoke, Chen Anxia asked, "Over the years, haven't you ever wondered why Sabito and Makomo, with their strength, perished in the Demon Slayer's final test?"

Urokodaki Sakonji shuddered upon hearing this.

Urokodaki Sakonji had never actually thought about this question.

Because death is the norm in the final test of the Demon Slayer.

Although Urokodaki Sakonji was saddened by the death of his beloved disciple, he simply assumed that they were unlucky and had died in the final test of the Demon Slayers, and did not think much of it.

Now, listening to Chen Anxia's words, it seems that Sabito and Makomo's deaths had other reasons. How could this not stir up Urokodaki Sakonji's heart?

It's important to know that Urokodaki Sakonji treated Sabito and Makomo, as well as all the disciples he had taught in the past, as if they were his own children.

In his mind, Sabito and Makomo's voices and smiles reappeared, making Urokodaki Sakonji reminisce while also feeling extremely sad.
