A strong gray wind swept in, several times stronger than the maple leaf fan attack wielded by Karaku.
"Shooting!"
Several massive shockwaves were launched, each powerful enough to create a large hole in a person's body.
This was the most powerful concentrated attack launched by Zohakuten after combining the Demon Blood Art, including Ji Jikan.
"Scribe, die!"
With immense anger on his face, Zohakuten shouted loudly.
"You demon!"
In the blink of an eye, four completely different attacks arrived in front of the Scribe.
The Scribe exhaled a faint breath of white air and then moved.
The flames gradually coalesced, forming the shape of a dragon's head behind him.
Dragon body, dragon tail, dragon claws.
In the blink of an eye, a massive Fire Dragon, exuding a terrifying aura, appeared before Zohakuten's eyes.
"How can Wood Dragon be compared to Fire Dragon?"
Leaning slightly forward, the Scribe vanished from her spot.
At this moment, the attack from Zohakuten also arrived.
But no matter the Mad Roar, the Lightning Kill, the Wind Pressure, or the gunshots, they all vanish into nothingness the moment they touch the Fire Dragon.
"What? How is this possible!"
Seeing his attack rendered ineffective, Zohakuten was greatly alarmed.
"What is this thing?"
Holding a drumstick, he struck the taiko drum behind him. Unwilling to give up, Zohakuten jumped back and used the Blood Demon Art once again.
"Blood Demon Art * Boundless Karma Tree"
Numerous skinks sprouted from behind, roaring as they charged toward the Scribe.
In Zohakuten's view, even the most powerful attack has a duration.
The skink's attack range is 66 feet, and each skink can regenerate new skinks from its mouth, thus extending its attack range.
"At this distance and length, there's no way you could not touch me!"
With wide eyes, Zohakuten stared intently at the increasingly distant Scribe.
"It seems you are unaware of your crime."
As the Scribe sped along, he slightly raised his head; he had already guessed what Zohakuten was thinking.
"Then, disappear."
As soon as he finished speaking, the Fire Dragon broke off from the Scribe's body and flew straight ahead.
Wherever it went, the skinks were ignited.
They couldn't even stop the Fire Dragon for a second.
In an instant, the Fire Dragon caught up with the fleeing Zohakuten.
Open your mouth and then take a bite.
"Bang!"
Zohakuten's figure disappeared into the Fire Dragon's mouth, while the Fire Dragon's enormous body continued to move forward.
After passing through the Zohakuten, they continued flying into the forest.
Finally, the Fire Dragon plunged into the forest, causing a massive explosion.
Sparks flew, igniting the dry wood.
In just a few seconds, the fire escalated.
Zohakuten, whose body was charred black, knelt on the ground.
It made strange sounds, like wailing or whispering.
"Tap tap tap~"
The Scribe took a step and walked towards Zohakuten.
"Go to hell with your sins."
After saying that, he picked up the Nichirin Blade and gently patted Zohakuten on the head.
At the moment of contact, Zohakuten's body turned into ashes and scattered in the air.
After eliminating the clone of the Hantengu, the Scribe turned to look at the burning forest.
Although Zohakuten possesses the ability to think independently and has his own personality, he can never escape the fate of being an avatar.
As the true form of the Cowardly Demon, it is impossible for it to be too far from the Zohakuten.
Their general area of activity is on this mountain.
Kyojuro and the others had just run down the mountain, and now the Scribe has set a fire at the top of the mountain.
By using a two-pronged approach, we can quickly force the Cowardly Demon out.
Somewhere in the forest.
"How scary, how scary!"
The Cowardly Demon, hiding in the grass, sensed the death of Zohakuten and spoke with a trembling voice.
"I don't want to die! I don't want to die!"
With a scream, it burst into astonishing speed and fled down the mountain.
As long as you can escape to the vicinity of that river, you won't have to Heart Fire.
But the Cowardly Demon did not expect that this was exactly what the Scribe had planned.
"Found it! I found the ghost!"
Just as the Cowardly Demon was dodging and weaving, a swordsman from the Demon Slayer Corps spotted it.
Upon hearing the sound, the surrounding swordsmen immediately rushed over.
Not only that, the Cowardly Demon also sensed four other, even more powerful auras.
"It's a pillar, it's a pillar!"
Sensing that the pillar was approaching, the Cowardly Demon increased its speed once again.
With a whoosh, it leaped onto a tree and, without the slightest hesitation, continued its escape into the distance.
"Wind Breathing..."
At that moment, a slash was unleashed, shattering the tree where the Cowardly Demon had just been standing.
Kuronose Chikan, a Class A swordsman of the Demon Slayer Corps and a user of the Wind Breathing, has arrived.
"Run! You must run!"
Looking back, the Cowardly Demon knew he was no match for it.
During their continued escape, Sabito and Kanroji Mitsuri both made attempts to attack, but they were both evaded.
"Flame Breathing * First Form * Fire Train"
As the explosion rang out, a burst of flames not far away roared like a moving Fire Train.
Rengoku KyoJuro moved at high speed, quickly approaching the Cowardly Demon.
"Cut!"
The Nichirin Blade in his hand slashed at the neck of the Cowardly Demon, precise and full of power.
"Ughhhhh!"
Upon contact, the Cowardly Demon immediately let out a miserable wail.
But Kyojuro also noticed that the seemingly weak demon in front of him had an incredibly hard neck.
The feeling of that chopping motion made him wonder if he was chopping diamonds.
Even with his own arm strength, he could only cut it off little by little.
However, the Cowardly Demon stopped after its wailing.
Its rat-sized body instantly expanded, with a large number of bones and muscles appearing out of thin air.
Soon, a two- or three-meter-tall demon was formed, resembling an enlarged version of the Cowardly Demon.
Hate Demon.
"Don't bully the weak!"
The moment the Hate Demon was born, it immediately pulled the Nichirin Blade from its neck.
He threw a punch, slamming it heavily towards Kyojuro was standing right in front of him.
Faced with the sudden attack, Kyojuro instinctively took a defensive stance.
As he swung his Nichirin Blade, severing the arm, he took a few steps back.
"Another one? Just how many clones does this guy have?"
Just then, the Scribe emerged from behind a nearby tree, leaving a puzzled look.
"This is the last one."
Chapter 618 The Gyokko Escaped Again
"Mister Scribe!"
Upon seeing the Scribe appear, Kyojuro's face lit up with joy.
"You've arrived. What about the one from before..."
"They've already been wiped out by me."
The Scribe nodded, then snapped his fingers.
Then, Kuronose Chikan, Sabito, Mitsuri, and the others appeared from another direction and surrounded the Hate Demon.
Moreover, even more swordsmen are on their way from afar.
The Hate Demon has fallen into a desperate situation.
"Heh~~~"
It let out a low growl with an unclear meaning, and the Hate Demon seemed to realize its own predicament.
"I just want to live!"
With a loud shout, it swung its fist and charged at the Scribe.
But in the next second, it was sliced in two by the sharp blade.
Even the Cowardly Demon within her was the same.
With a thud, he fell to the ground, a look of disbelief still lingering in the eyes of the Hate Demon.
"I just... want... to live."
Before he could finish speaking, the Scribe walked up to it and said coldly.
"Don't the others want to live too?"
His pupils contracted slightly, and the Hate Demon wanted to say something more.
But as its life came to an end, it had no more chances.
Watching the ashes slowly dissipate, the Scribe knew that Upper Rank Four's Hantengu was completely dead.
"Finally dead."
Among the swordsmen who rushed over, one male swordsman collapsed to the ground upon seeing the death of the Hantengu.
