Chapter 35

Tanjiro's knife scared the ghost and it quickly retreated.

Taking this opportunity, Tanjiro stood up and ran two steps, holding the knife not far from the ghost.

"Damn, his head was chopped off. I didn’t expect this guy was a swordsman of the Demon Slayer Corps."

The ghost, who thought he was going to disappear, cursed secretly, blaming himself for his carelessness and Tanjiro's insidiousness.

Since he was a swordsman of the Demon Slayer Corps, why did he pretend that he had never seen a ghost eating a person.

After waiting for a while, the ghost found something wrong. Why didn't it disappear?

Ji Qingfeng, who was hiding in the dark for fear of scaring the ghost away, was also amazed by Tanjiro's sword.

If it had been replaced with the Sunwheel Sword, the ghost would have died just now. Should he say that he is worthy of being the protagonist?

Strength, speed, courage, all are much stronger than him, an ordinary person. When he first came to this world, he couldn't kill the ghost even if he was given a weapon. Even if the ghost was careless, he couldn't cut off the ghost's neck. That required a lot of strength and skills.

Tanjiro in the original work should have been holding an axe at this time, because of the length problem, he couldn't chop off the ghost's head at once.

While Ji Qingfeng was thinking, Tanjiro's battle with the ghost continued.

After the ghost found out that it was not the Sunwheel Sword that chopped off his head, the ghost immediately controlled his body and put the head on the body

"I was so scared, I thought I was going to die."

"You damned little devil!"

With a roar, after the cut on his neck healed, the devil rushed towards Tanjiro.

Facing the repeated attacks of the devil, Tanjiro soon fell into a tough battle. Even though Tanjiro was the protagonist, he was untrained at this time, and he was no match for the devil no matter how hard he fought alone.

Shaking his head, Ji Qingfeng gradually placed his right hand on the handle of the Sun Blade, ready to step forward to rescue at any time.

Suddenly!

‘Who?! '

Ji Qingfeng, sensing someone approaching from behind, drew his sword and turned back.

After seeing who was coming, Ji Qingfeng relaxed, stopped the Sun Blade in his hand that had been unsheathed and slashing at the opponent, and sheathed it.

"Senior Urokodaki, can you make some noise next time? You can easily scare people to death like this."

Ji Qingfeng said unhappily to the Urokodaki Sakonji who was wearing a red long-nosed Crow Tengu mask behind him.

"The current Sound Pillar, Ji Qingfeng?"

Urokodaki Sakonji said in a flat tone, his eyes under the mask looking Ji Qingfeng up and down.

‘The current Sound Pillar is even stronger than Kuwajima Jigoro.

Ji Qingfeng nodded when he heard this. He didn't find it strange that Urokodaki Sakonji was here. People always disappeared in the nearby mountains. His sense of smell was good, so it was normal for him to find this place.

"Is he the child you mentioned who is suitable for water breathing?"

"Well, his name is Tanjiro Kamado. Senior Urokodaki is here just in time. Tanjiro is fighting a demon. Senior, you can observe whether he is suitable for water breathing and whether he is suitable to be your disciple."

Urokodaki Sakonji did not comment on what he said, and quietly watched Tanjiro fighting the demon in front of the gate of the temple. Ji

Qingfeng smiled helplessly when he saw this. This 'Teacher Jiraiya' didn't talk much.

During the time they talked, Tanjiro was almost unable to hold on.

He didn't expect the demon to be so strong, powerful, and fast. He was no match for it at all.

‘I remember Brother Qingfeng said that demons can only be killed by sunlight and the Nichirin Sword, so we have to think of a way.

Tanjiro could smell the scent of Ji Qingfeng and Urokodaki Sakonji beside him. This was probably a test to see if he could learn the breathing method.

Bang, Tanjiro was kicked out by the demon again.

After rolling on the ground for several times, Tanjiro stood up with a sword in one hand and his stomach covered with one hand.

‘No, no, it's too far off. All my attacks were dodged. Even if I hit them, it would be meaningless. Can I just wait until sunrise?

Tanjiro looked at the demon in the distance in a panic.

"Senior Urokodaki, I don't want to wait here until sunrise." Ji Qingfeng also saw that Tanjiro was too far behind the ghost now.

It was completely one-sided abuse, and there was no effect of training, but it was not completely without gain, at least it allowed Tanjiro to personally experience the power and speed of the ghost.

After Ji Qingfeng finished speaking, his body sank slightly, and his right hand was placed on the hilt of the knife.

Thunder Breathing, Form I, Thunderbolt flashed.

With a whoosh, Ji Qingfeng turned into purple-black lightning and rushed behind the ghost.

The ghost who heard the movement just wanted to look back, but its head fell to the ground with a thud, and rolled in front of Tanjiro.

"VariedWhat? What happened?"

Tanjiro looked down at the demon whose head was chopped off before he knew what happened, and his eyes widened in shock.

In the previous battle between Ji Qingfeng and Muzan, Tanjiro could not see clearly the last dozen or so slashes of Ji Qingfeng, so he had no idea how strong Ji Qingfeng was.

But today, this demon whose strength completely crushed him was killed so easily in Ji Qingfeng's hands, and the demon didn't even react. This made Tanjiro deeply realize the strength of Ji Qingfeng.

"What are you thinking about, Tanjiro?"

"No, nothing."

"Work hard and you will become as strong as I am now."Ji Qingfeng comforted Tanjiro, rubbed his head, and then turned to look at the

"Senior Urokodaki hasn't come out yet. Are you dissatisfied with this disciple?"

After hearing Ji Qingfeng's slightly teasing voice, Urokodaki Sakonji came back to his senses from the purple-black light just now. He remembered that Kuwajima Jigoro's Thunder Breathing Technique seemed to be a golden light.

After coming back to his senses, Urokodaki Sakonji stopped thinking about other people's problems.

Looking at Urokodaki Sakonji who walked out of the woods and appeared in front of him, Tanjiro looked at Ji Qingfeng inquiringly.

Seeing Ji Qingfeng nodded gently, Tanjiro took a deep breath, took two steps forward and came in front of Urokodaki Sakonji.

"I am Sakonji Urokodaki"

"My name is Tanjiro Kamado"

"Tanjiro, why do you want to join the Demon Slayer Corps? Urokodaki Sakonji asked Tanjiro Kamado in a serious tone.

Hearing this question, Tanjiro Kamado looked at Ji Qingfeng.

"Don't need to look at me, don't you know what you think?" Ji Qingfeng looked at Tanjiro with some helplessness, is this kid a little too dependent on me?

"I want to kill ghosts"

"My whole family, including my mother, Takeo, Nezuko, Shigeru, Hanako, and even myself, were almost killed by the demon."

"If it weren't for Brother Qingfeng who showed up in time to save us, I can't imagine what the scene would be like when I got home after selling charcoal."

"Will it be like this Buddhist temple?"
