Upon seeing this, Oyakata-sama was completely stunned, as he had never encountered such a situation before.
Each Demon Hunter's sword changes color according to their breathing technique; different breathing techniques will cause the sword's color to change, but this kind of gradient color is something he has never heard of before.
Furthermore, at a glance, four colors can be seen on the blade, and these four colors are constantly changing and transforming into other colors.
Oyakata-sama looked at Su Chen with a solemn expression. He noticed that Su Chen's breathing was indeed different from the others. His breathing was very strange. He tried to follow Su Chen's breathing, but after a while, he felt a sense of suffocation.
Could it be... that he was breathing several times simultaneously?
Oyakata-sama's pupils contracted slightly. He couldn't believe it. How could there be Demon Hunter with such terrifying talent in this world, perhaps even... reaching the level of Yoriichi Tsugikuni?
His eyes quickly revealed excitement and exhilaration.
Does that mean that the person before us is Muzan's nemesis, possessing enough power to kill him Muzan?
"Mr. Chen Tian, Demon Slayer Corps requests that you become a Pillar. Would you be willing?"
Chen Tian's current strength can be said to be the strongest among the Pillars, even surpassing that of the Stone Pillar. Becoming a Pillar is entirely within his reach.
Upon hearing this, the other pillars remained silent.
Judging from Su Chen's previous victory over the Wind Pillar, his strength is definitely above that of the Wind Pillar, and there is no problem with such a person becoming a pillar.
They had no complaints about it; in fact, they were happy about it.
Another pillar has been added.
Furthermore, he is a Pillar with terrifying strength, which means that the Demon Slayer Corps' strength has increased significantly.
"Certainly."
Su Chen smiled and nodded.
"However, I have one request."
Require?
Oyakata-sama immediately spoke up, "Please speak."
No matter the cost, he would do everything in his power to satisfy Su Chen.
Su Chen spoke calmly, "I have no interest in killing ordinary demons, so if you encounter Upper Rank demon, please tell me immediately. I am only interested in killing Upper Rank demons."
Upper Rank!
The Pillars present all changed color slightly. They all knew very well how terrifying the Upper Rank's strength was. If any of the Pillars present encountered Upper Rank, they could not guarantee that they could defeat Upper Rank. Yet, he specifically named and demanded to kill the Upper Rank.
However... he seems to have the ability.
Since Su Chen's Cultivation Level is currently sealed, he cannot directly detect the Upper Rank. Therefore, he can only rely on the Demon Slayer Corps to help him search. If he were to rely on himself, it would take forever.
"No problem." Oyakata-sama smiled. He had thought Su Chen would make some unreasonable request, but it turned out to be so simple.
It seems that this Chen Tian also has a deep-seated blood feud with ghosts.
But thinking about it, it makes sense; who among those who can join the Demon Slayer Corps doesn't have a blood feud with demons?
Oyakata-sama smiled and said, "Now that you've become a Pillar, have you thought about your title? Every Pillar in the Demon Slayer Corps has their own unique title."
Su Chen nodded. This title was similar to titles like Stone Pillar or Wind Pillar.
But what name should I choose for myself?
Five Elements Great Dao Pillars?
Shadow pillar?
These all sound rather unpleasant, mainly because the names themselves lack any prestige. Su Chen certainly didn't want his name to be so ordinary.
Heaven Pillar?
He shook his head; he really wasn't good at naming things.
Let's call it Heaven Pillar).
Heaven Pillar)
Oyakata-sama nodded.
Soon.
Su Chen becoming a Pillar became a fact, and the news spread in all directions. In a short time, everyone in the Demon Slayer Corps would know that another Pillar had been born in their ranks.
Just as he was about to leave, Wind Pillar suddenly appeared from behind. "Wait a minute."
Su Chen turned his head to look at the Wind Pillar, a faint smile on his face, "Is there something you need?"
He harbored little ill will towards the Wind Pillar.
Wind Pillar is indeed the kind of person who has a sharp tongue but a soft heart; he just has a rather volatile temper at times.
Wind Pillar seemed hesitant to speak, but after a long silence, he finally asked, "I want to know, how did you become so powerful? Is it because of some special cultivation method?"
As a cultivation fanatic, Wind Pillar was always eager to become stronger, so he naturally wouldn't let this opportunity slip by.
Su Chen smiled faintly, "No, it's simply a matter of talent."
Disappointment flashed in Wind Pillar's eyes. Talent is something that cannot be learned. He gritted his teeth, somewhat unwilling. The shock that Su Chen had brought him when he used Shadow Strike was too great.
He still finds it hard to forget and can't understand how that was done.
It was so fast that he barely saw it clearly.
And that Five Elements Breathing Technique —just hearing about it made his scalp tingle; he simply couldn't do it to that extent.
Do you really want to become stronger?
Su Chen wore a faint smile.
The Wind Pillar looked up at him, then nodded heavily. "I want to."
Su Chen's lips curled up slightly. "Want to cultivate with me? I can teach you Shadow Breathing. This breathing Dharma Form is much easier than the Five Elements Breathing Technique. Although it's still somewhat difficult for you, learning it shouldn't be a problem."
"Really!?" Wind Pillar's face immediately lit up with joy.
"This is troublesome!"
As he spoke, Wind Pillar knelt down, placed his hands on his forehead, and bowed to Su Chen, which seemed to be a common etiquette in their area.
Come see me tomorrow.
After Su Chen finished speaking, he turned and left, returning to the residence that Oyakata-sama had arranged for him, which was very close by.
The next day.
Early morning.
As dawn broke, Wind Pillar's figure appeared outside the Courtyard. He looked inside and saw Su Chen Chenpan sitting on the ground, breathing evenly.
Although Su Chen came to this world, he couldn't shake his old habits; he still habitually meditated at night.
However, he is now an ordinary person, and he definitely can't go without sleep, so Su Chen has developed a breathing method, which he hasn't named yet.
The purpose of this breathing technique is to induce a state of light sleep during meditation, which can enhance recovery, restore physical strength, and improve mental well-being, among other things.
It's more effective than sleeping.
Two or three hours of meditation a day can directly replace sleep.
"You've arrived?"
Su Chen slightly opened his eyes and looked towards the Wind Pillar.
He stood up.
Last night, Su Chen pondered all night how to teach the Wind Pillar the Shadow Breathing. This breathing method was not difficult for Su Chen, but it would be quite challenging for the Wind Pillar.
Su Chen first taught him the three moves of the Shadow Breathing Technique; these were the only three attacks available at the moment.
These are the First Form and Flash Step, which can temporarily increase speed, similar to teleportation, but with a shorter distance.
There's also the Second Form, Afterimage Step, which can significantly increase speed for a certain period of time.
Only the Third Form, Invisibility.
Fourth Form, Shadow Strike.
This move is actually similar to the First Form, which involves instantly appearing behind the enemy, then gathering all your strength to deliver a fatal blow.
This Shadow Strike is considered the most difficult, requiring not only speed and sufficient strength, but also, most importantly, 'killing intent'.
It can intimidate the enemy's killing intent.
This is quite difficult for Wind Pillar to cultivate. To put it bluntly, the number of ghosts Wind Pillar has killed is less than one ten-thousandth of the number of people Su Chen has killed.
Saying it's even one in ten thousand is giving him too much credit.
