There is no answer. The only choice before everyone at this moment is 'believe' or 'disbelieve'.
"Can you believe it?"
Everyone looked at each other.
"Let's go."
Purgatory Xingjulang said after being silent for a while.
Tanjiro, Zenitsu and Inosuke also nodded slightly.
They still knew something about the winding ghost in front of them, with its back completely facing them at the moment.
This is a ‘fighting ghost’. Although it is a ghost, it is very pure.
They don't know what happened to this ghost, but that doesn't stop them from trusting a 'soldier' who will hand over his back to them.
What surprised everyone was that they stood still and did not stop them until they left Hei Death Mo safely.
In fact, it wasn't that Hei Shimo didn't want to stop him, but that he focused all his attention on Yi Wo Zuo.
At this moment, as the 'Luo Needle' unfolded, the ground beneath the Yiwo Seat cracked inch by inch, and its power had reached an unprecedented peak.
Such power even made Hei Deathmo feel threatened.
He no longer had the energy to stop these indifferent humans, because no matter how he looked at it, the Yiwo Zuo in front of him was serious about killing him.
"So...are you betraying? Yiwozuo."
"Betrayal? How can we talk about it?"
Yiwo Zuo raised his fist, "I have already said that I will kill you with my own hands."
"snort."
Listening to Yi Wo Zuo's sophistry, Hei Shimo snorted disdainfully.
His eyes did not pay attention to the Yiwo seat, but looked in another direction. There was no one there.
"Isn't the guy next to you still unwilling to show up?"
"Tsk."
An unhappy smacking sound came from the void.
A strange rune fell to the ground, and Yushiro's figure gradually emerged.
"I thought I didn't need to do anything anymore."
It's obvious that he has been hiding here from the beginning.
Ms. Tamashi asked him to follow the Demon Slayers into Mugen City and protect the safety of these humans when necessary.
The reason why he has not taken action is because it has not yet reached the real moment of life and death. As for these human beings being injured? Who cares? There is only Miss Zhushi in his heart. If it weren't for Miss Zhushi's order, he would not be too lazy to follow.
Minding your own business.
But now that it was discovered, there was nothing we could do.
"Hey, the ghosts over there are joining forces?"
Yushiro asked with an expressionless face towards Yi Wo Zuo.
"..."
Yiwozuo didn't answer, and his figure disappeared instantly.
"Tsk."
Yushiro looked at the back of Hei Shimo rushing towards him unhappily.
"What's your attitude? I'm not willing to help you?"
Well, actually he admitted that he wanted to call Yi Wo Zuo because he felt he couldn't defeat him alone, but Yi Wo Zuo didn't seem to appreciate it very much.
As Yiwozuo began to attack, Hei Shimo's figure also started to move.
In an instant, two figures violently collided with each other in the gradually collapsing Infinite City.
······
"You are indeed very strong! Black Death Mou!"
Yiwozuo shouted excitedly.
He originally thought that after he recalled himself, he was much stronger than before and should be evenly matched with Black Death Mou, but in fact, he still underestimated the guy in front of him.
The opponent's attacks were continuous, and the power of each sword was enough to make ordinary humans feel desperate.
The fast, accurate, cruel and sharp knife gave Yiwozuo no chance to dodge, and he could only resist the violent blows head-on.
He is now facing the same situation as the Demon Slayer Swordsmen, but there is one difference - he is a ghost.
"Hahahahahaha——"
Blood splattered everywhere, and his fist was cut open by the chops one after another, and then recovered instantly. Yiwozuo laughed wildly and punched as if he couldn't feel the pain.
"I'm sorry, Hei Simo, I will never lose today!"
The waving fists brought up countless afterimages, and endless fists came from all directions to suppress Black Death Mou.
Yiwozuo is a ghost and will not die just because his body is cut off, so he gave up defense from the beginning and only launched a desperate attack.
Yes, no matter what!
Punch after punch struck the ferocious ghost blade. The difference between fists and swords is that the attack path is shorter and the speed is faster. This may be a disadvantage for ordinary people, but for Yiwo at this moment
But it's not necessarily the case.
This is a battle without distinction between life and death, and neither side will die due to injuries.
Black Death Mo's swordsman-like combat method does have advantages against humans who can be injured and bleed, but it is a bit redundant when faced with powerful ghosts who also don't need defense.
"Click——"
Yiwozuo swung his fist wildly, and his fist hit Hei Shimo's blade from the side, making a clanging sound like iron being struck.
Finally, a crisp snapping sound was heard, and a bright smile appeared on his face.
"The opportunity has come!"
Hei Shimo's movements were slightly stagnant due to the breakage of the Ghost Blade. Although the Ghost Blade grew crazily and returned to its original state in the blink of an eye, the flaw at this moment was caught by Yiwozuo.
“Ahhhhh——”
Along with the roar, Yiwozuo punched faster and faster. Taking advantage of this fleeting flaw, he completely suppressed Hei Shimo.
The sound of cracking bones continued to sound, and his fists shattered again and again, but it still did not hinder his crazy offensive. He kept smashing down his bloody fists, forcing Hei Shimo to retreat.
"Don't be too... arrogant!"
Having been forced to retreat to the edge of the ruins, with no way to retreat, Hei Shimo's face showed an angry look for the first time. It seemed that he was really angry at Yiwo Zuo.
"bass--"
Along with the sound of breaking through the air, another ferocious long knife grew out of Hei Shimo's hand, and it was also covered with countless ferocious eyeballs and flesh.
The two long knives grew crazily, and the ten-meter-long giant blades brought up terrifying winds, seeming to split the Yiwo Seat apart along with everything visible in front of them.
Seeing this, Yiwozuo retreated quickly. He knew that he could be injured but could not be cut off by such a long sword, otherwise he would not have the slightest chance to resist.
The angry Hei Shimou looked at Yiwozuo who retreated and chased after him without hesitation.
Everything around them was collapsing, but they were not afraid at all, and a bloody fight was staged among the ruins that had no beginning and no end.
"I wonder, is this guy so fierce?"
Yushiro scratched his head before he could take action.
In his opinion, there is still a certain gap between the strength of Yi Wo Zuo and Hei Death Mou. He originally thought that this guy would have to join forces with him to suppress Hei Death Mou.
But at this moment, Yiwozuo was working harder than he imagined, and even Saburo had to step aside.
"Never mind it, go up and help me, and when you're done, hurry back to Miss Zhushi."
A faint golden light flashed in Yushiro's eyes, and his gaze suddenly became serious.
Of course, what he was worried about was not that the Hei Si Mo in front of him was difficult to deal with. After all, they were all ghosts, and there was no way to tell the outcome no matter how hard they fought. All he had to do was restrict the ghost's movements.
What he was worried about was Miss Zhushi's purpose of driving him away.
Although he had made an appointment with Miss Zhushi to find a place to live in seclusion when Wuhan was eliminated, he actually knew that Miss Zhushi had already had her death wish.
If Wuhan is eliminated, then the hatred that only supports Miss Zhushi's survival will be gone.
The worst-case scenario is that she will take the initiative to walk out into the sun and end her life.
Yushiro knew all this in his heart, but Miss Tamashii's orders to him were absolute, and he could not disobey Miss Tamashii no matter what.
So even though he knew he was specially sent away, he still came here.
But at the same time, he didn't want Miss Zhushi to die.
"It's really a headache..."
Yushiro kept looking at the surrounding environment. Infinite City was constantly collapsing. He had to plan a way to quickly reach the outside first.
The mission Miss Tamashi gave him was to protect these Demon Slayer swordsmen who were of no concern to him, and she did not want him to be wasted here with two unkillable Demon Swordsmen.
Just make sure those humans evacuate to a safe distance, and then he can leave!
He must find Miss Zhushi immediately after confirming Wuhan's death, because if it is true as he suspected, the moment Wuhan is eliminated is when Miss Zhushi goes to die.
But thinking of this, Yushiro felt that it was not the best choice for him to evacuate with the group of humans, because what these humans wanted to do now seemed to be just to evacuate here, and killing Muhan didn't seem to have much to do with them. Following them
It’s no use!
So how can we confirm a tragic death?
"It's really troublesome..."
Yushiro looked at Hei Shimo and Yiwo Zuo with gloomy eyes.
He suddenly remembered that the lives of these two ghosts should be connected to Wu Mei. When Wu Mei dies, they will also die.
He thought that if he was fast enough, he might still be able to stop Miss Zhushi from doing something stupid...
······
"Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!"
Wu Kai kept cursing resentfully.
"Where is this!?"
Behind him is the collapsed Infinite City, and the road ahead of him is an unknown space.
It was a battlefield filled with mountains of corpses and seas of blood. He had never set foot in it, and he didn't remember that there was such an area around it.
"Who can tell me what this is all about?"
Wu Kai roared angrily.
At this moment, he was alone in this space, as confused and panicked as a general who had thrown away his armor after a defeat.
"What's going on? What's going on? Why did it become like this!?"
He ran around in panic, but there seemed to be no end to it. No matter which direction he ran, there were corpses.
What frightened him even more was that these corpses were screaming, as if they would reach out to grab him at any time and drag him into the endless hell.
He didn't understand why he lost so completely.
The Infinite City collapsed, and almost all of his subordinates, who had been scorned for hundreds of years, were wiped out.
I originally thought that Hei Shimo was still reliable and might be able to help him after getting rid of those humans, but what? Yiwozuo!
What is Yiwozuo doing!?
"Why? Why did you betray me!?"
Wuxian asked confusedly, but no one would respond to him.
With a sinister look on his face, he tried to obliterate Yiwo Zuo through his will, but no matter how many times he tried, he found that it didn't work.
Because he is trapped here.
From the moment he escaped from Infinite City, he was trapped in this hell-like place.
Everything seems to be controlled by a huge hand.
"Damn it! Where is this place?"
"Of course it's where you are buried."
The sound came from high up, and the echoes lingered.
Wu Kuai raised his head in horror and finally discovered the figure that frightened him.
"when……"
He remembered that he was clearly in front of this guy and he had already escaped!
Yes, he escaped from Infinite City by running ahead of Xuan Hao.
But at this moment, the old man was sitting strangely on the mountain of corpses and sea of blood in front of him, as if he had been waiting for him here all along.
"what on earth is it?"
Wuxian had no idea what was going on. He preferred to believe that everything here was false and a dream.
"You don't really think you can escape if you appear in front of me, do you?"
The cold voice wiped away all Wu Kai's illusions. Everything was so real. He could even smell the strong smell of blood and feel the blazing temperature on the burning battlefield.
"Who...are you?"
Facing the pair of blazing golden eyes from above, Wu Mei fell into unprecedented despair, as if he was being burned by the sun.
Xuan Hao did not answer, but stepped down the stairs on the sea of blood.
He looked at Wuhan in front of him indifferently, like looking at an ant.
Just like what he said, it was impossible for Wu Mei to escape from his hands, because the trap had been set from the moment Infinite City unfolded.
No one can realize that the outside of Infinite City has long been enveloped by another force. This is Xuan Hao's 'domain'. Because it has not yet been completed, it can be called 'Nibelungen'.
It can be said that this battle is under Xuan Hao's control from beginning to end. The world shrouded by the Nibelungs is naturally his world, and everything that happens in it, including everything in Infinite City, will follow his will.
To put it simply, victory or defeat is determined from the beginning.
Although he didn't tell everyone in the Demon Slayer Squad, in fact these people would never die no matter how much they messed around, including Muzan's inability to kill Yiwozao with his thoughts because it was his will.
Strictly speaking, within his domain, this space no longer belongs to the original world, so the rules are naturally made by him.
Perhaps the only limitation is that you cannot influence people who are stronger than yourself, but unfortunately there are no such people in this world.
This is a power that neither humans nor ghosts in this world can understand. Because they cannot understand it, they are even more desperate.
Wumei, who escaped from the Infinite City, thought he could escape, but instead he stepped into a trap that had been prepared for him. He felt helpless and desperate as if he was being manipulated.
"You...you guys!"
Wu Kuan watched in horror as the old man slowly walked not far away from him. Not only the old man, but when he came back to his senses, he was surprised to find that he was suddenly surrounded.
At some point, the members of the Demon Slayer Squad who were supposed to be intercepted by Black Death Mou in Infinity City also came to this space and surrounded him indifferently.
