Infinity Starting with Hikaru no Go

Even Kagaya Ubuyashiki, the head of the Demon Slayer Corps, had only seen records related to the Transparent World in the history of the Demon Slayer Corps.

Kagaya Ubuyashiki never expected that Chen Anxia would actually possess the method to open the Transparent World.

At the same time, Kagaya Ubuyashiki was also filled with excitement.

Kagaya Ubuyashiki knew that if the Pillars of the Demon Slayer Corps could open the Transparent World, then the chances of defeating Muzan Kibutsuji would be even greater.

For the next few days, Chen Anxia and Kyoko Tsugikuni and her daughter stayed at the Demon Slayer Corps headquarters.

In these few days, Jiuzhu witnessed Chen Anxia's terrifying talent for the first time.

They could hardly believe that someone in the world could master their breathing technique completely after just one viewing, and to a degree comparable to their own.

Therefore, on just the first day, Chen Anxia had completely mastered the Nine Pillars Breathing Method.

Because Chen Anxia had already reached the limit of the Water Breathing Technique, his mastery of the Nine-Pillar Breathing Technique was rapidly increasing through analogy.

In just a few days, Chen Anxia's mastery of the Nine-Pillar Breathing Technique had surpassed that of the Nine-Pillar Technique.

This fact caused Jiuzhu's perception and worldview to collapse once again.

In their hearts, even the legendary demon slayer Yoriichi Tsugikuni's talent was not as strong as Chen Anxia's.

Time passed slowly, and seven days later, the hunt for the Twelve Demon Moons officially began.

......

Chapter 533 The war is about to break out!

During these seven days, not only Chen Anxia gained something, but all nine pillars also gained something to varying degrees.

The one who reaped the greatest reward was the Mist Hashira, Muichiro Tokito.

After seven days of preaching by Chen Anxia, ​​Tokito Muichiro was able to barely open the Transparent World.

Chen Anxia was not surprised by this.

Chen Anxia, ​​who had read the original work, knew that Tokito Muichiro could be said to be the most talented genius of this era, and even Kamado Tanjiro's talent could not compare to Tokito Muichiro's.

Muichiro Tokito is a boy with long black hair and an expressionless face. He became a Pillar-level swordsman after only two months of wielding a sword.

This talent is truly astonishing.

The reason why Muichiro Tokito possesses such talent is also related to his bloodline.

Tracing back to his origins, Muichiro Tokito is a descendant of Kokushibo, the Upper Moon One of the Twelve Demon Moons.

When Kokushibo was human, he was Yoriichi Tsugikuni's younger brother.

Therefore, Muichiro Tokito has the blood of the Tsugumi family flowing through his veins.

In response, Chen Anxia had to acknowledge the strength of the national bloodline.

Because Kyoko Tsugikuni also has the blood of the Tsugikuni family flowing through her veins, this is one of the reasons why her strength was able to grow rapidly after becoming a demon, and why she was able to break through the various limitations of demons.

Apart from Muichiro Tokito, the other eight pillars, while unable to open the Transparent World, already possessed a profound and mysterious feeling.

This mysterious feeling told them that given the right opportunity, they could unlock the world of clarity.

They also realized that the right opportunity should lie in the battle against the Twelve Demon Moons.

......

Guided by Kyoko Tsugikuni's Blood Demon Art - Blood Lure, Chen Anxia, ​​Jiuzhu, and several other players embarked on a journey to hunt the Twelve Demon Moons.

According to the established plan, Chen Anxia and Jiuzhu will start their hunt from the top down, beginning with the waxing crescent moon, and ultimately eliminate the twelve ghost moons in one fell swoop.

The reason for starting the hunt with the upper moon is that Muzan Kibutsuji can foresee the deaths of the Twelve Demon Moons.

If the hunt begins with the waning moon, then Muzan Kibutsuji might gather all the waning moons together.

By then, it will be impossible to eradicate the Twelve Demon Moons one by one.

Moreover, with his newfound vigilance, Muzan Kibutsuji will become even more difficult to deal with, leading to more unpredictable events in the future.

If the hunt begins with the Upper Moon, the Upper Moons can be eliminated one by one before Muzan Kibutsuji can react.

By then, even if Muzan Kibutsuji gathers all the waning moons, it will be to no avail.

Although the power of the waning moon has reached the level of a pillar, it is still far inferior to that of the nine pillars who have experienced countless battles.

Another week passed, and Chen Anxia and Jiuzhu finally arrived at their first destination with the help of the Blood Guide.

This is the geisha district of Yoshiwara.

Here, the Upper Moon Sixth of the Twelve Demon Moons exists, namely the twin demons—Gyutaro and Daki.

According to the hunting plan, the Water Pillar - Giyu Tomioka, the Sound Pillar - Tengen Uzui, and the Wind Pillar - Sanemi Shinazugawa will stay behind to lie in wait for the right opportunity.

Although Chen Anxia and Jiuzhu can work together to quickly and forcefully annihilate the Twin Ghosts.

But doing so would alert the enemy.

To ensure the hunting plan ran perfectly, Chen Anxia and the others decided to split into three groups, each hunting an Upper Moon demon simultaneously.

Therefore, the right time that Tomioka Giyuu and his two companions were waiting for was when the other two groups were all in position.

At that time, the three groups will communicate in real time through the system thinking network of fellow players to confirm the timing.

After bidding farewell to the three men, Tomioka Giyu and his companions, who remained behind to lie in wait, Chen Anxia and his group set off again under the guidance of the Blood Guide.

Because transportation in this world is underdeveloped, it took Chen Anxia and his group almost two weeks to reach the location of the Eternal Bliss Sect.

Guided by the Bloodline, the Upper Moon Two of the Twelve Demon Moons, the Ice Demon - Doma, is currently in the Eternal Paradise Cult.

According to the hunting plan, the Insect Pillar - Shinobu Kocho, the Mist Pillar - Muichiro Tokito, and the Stone Pillar - Gyomei Himejima remained here, lurking nearby, waiting for the players to contact each other to confirm.

Afterwards, Chen Anxia, ​​Flame Pillar - Rengoku Kyojuro, Love Pillar - Kanroji Mitsuri, and Serpent Pillar - Iguro Obanai set off again, guided by the Blood Guide, to the location of the next Upper Moon Demon.

It's worth mentioning that Chen Anxia and the others didn't choose the Upper Moon demons they hunted based on their strength, but rather on the distance between them.

Although the island nation's landmass is very small compared to the world as a whole, it is still incredibly vast for humankind.

In this era of underdeveloped transportation, it might take several months, or even longer, to reach the location of the farthest Upper Moon demon.

Clearly, this was not what Chen Anxia and the Demon Slayer Corps wanted.

Time slips away quietly, and before we know it, another month or so has passed.

Finally, Chen Anxia and his group arrived at the destination guided by the bloodline.

This place is a vast, uninhabited primeval forest.

If it weren't for the blood guide, the Demon Slayer Corps and the player's intelligence network alone probably wouldn't have been able to find this place.

As Chen Anxia and his group arrived, deep within the primeval forest, a ghost with short, peach-pink hair, golden eyes, and pale skin, covered in countless dark blue tattoos representing sinners, closed its eyes, seemingly contemplating something.

This demon is the Upper Moon Three of the Twelve Demon Moons, the Fighting Demon - Akaza.

Akaza admires the strong and despises the weak. After becoming a demon, he constantly seeks out powerful opponents in order to become stronger.

In the original story, the Flame Pillar, Kyojuro Rengoku, was tragically killed by Akaza.

This also shows how terrifying Akaza is.

Meanwhile, around Akaza, under the hazy moonlight, were rows of eerie, cold fires glowing with a green light.

If you look closely, you'll find that these eerie green flames are actually the eyes of vicious wolves.

Clearly, these dozens of hungry wolves had already regarded the Wowo seat in front of them as their food.

However, these dozens of wolves had no idea what a terrifying monster they were about to face.

Although Akaza had his eyes closed, he was fully aware of his surroundings.

The reason for this is that after Akaza became a demon, he constantly fought against the successive Pillars of the Demon Slayer Corps, and in doing so, he cultivated an extremely powerful fighting spirit, or rather, killing intent.

Moreover, Akaza is also able to detect extremely subtle killing intent.

Therefore, Akaza perfectly knew the location of the dozens of vicious wolves around him who made no attempt to conceal their murderous intent.

Akaza appeared in this primeval forest to seek out and fight ferocious beasts, attempting to reach the supreme realm where he could freely conceal his fighting spirit—the Transparent World.

It was under these circumstances that Akaza opened his tightly closed eyes and looked up at the dark sky.

There, Akaza saw blood pigeons formed from blood.

Then, as if sensing something, Akaza's lips curled into a bloodthirsty smile.

The war is about to break out!

......

Chapter 534 Chen Anxia's Information, the Rise and Fall of Players!

"I sensed three powerful fighting energies, their strength comparable to that of the Demon Slayer Corps' Pillars..."

As Akaza spoke, he couldn't help but look up at the blood pigeon in the sky again, an uncontrollable smile on his face, and said, "This blood pigeon has the aura of Blood Demon Art..."

"It seems that a demon has betrayed Lord Muzan Kibutsuji and joined the Demon Slayer Corps..."

"Interesting, very interesting..."

"The battle with three Pillar-level swordsmen should bring me one step closer to the Transparent World..."

After speaking, Akaza lost interest in the pack of wolves surrounding him.

Akaza assumed his own unique martial arts stance and softly uttered, "Shūshiki!"

The next moment, a twelve-pointed array of pure white snowflakes appeared beneath Akaza's feet.

This array of pure white snowflakes is the core of Akaza's Blood Demon Art - Destruction Kill, named Destruction Kill: Compass.

After Akaza uses Destruction Kill: Compass, he can sense his opponent's fighting spirit like a compass, making his attacks and evasions as precise as if he were attracted by a magnet.

Furthermore, the stronger the opponent's fighting spirit, the stronger the compass's reaction, and the higher its strength and accuracy.

Over the years, Akaza has killed several Pillar-level swordsmen with the power of his Blood Demon Art - Destruction Kill.

Just after Akaza unleashed the Destruction Kill: Compass, his body seemed to be guided, and powerful martial arts strikes erupted from Akaza's hands and feet, bombarding the surrounding pack of wolves.

Before long, the area around Akaza was littered with the remains and fragments of wolves, resembling a scene from hell.

At that moment, Chen Anxia and his group, following the guidance of the blood pigeon, arrived at the location of Akaza.
