Chapter 274 Let this world grow again

That night, Long didn’t sleep at all.

When it was dawn outside the window, Tanping from the stove was finally the first to get up.

He simply put on his clothes, packed some things, and went out.

A moment later, a bonfire was lit outside, accompanied by the sound of wind chimes. Oboro followed closely behind, wearing a black haori and going outside the room.

As soon as he opened the door, he saw Tanping, who was already ready, standing next to the fire, wearing a mask on his face, looking at him.

Obviously, he was waiting for Long.

I also know that Long is still awake.

The two of them looked at each other silently, and Tanpei Kamado began the opening posture of the Kagura dance, holding the Kagura bell in his hand.

The bell rang continuously with his movements, making pleasant sounds.

The bonfire also fluctuated in size.

The simple sacrificial site was surrounded by a hemp rope.

Long walked closer and tightened his coat… He was observing Tanping’s breathing, the rhythm of his qi movement, and the effects of the qi entering his body on various parts.

Even though Tanpei was wearing clothes, Oboro was still able to determine the flow of his luck through some changes in his skin.

“Left foot…”

Long watched quietly for a moment, and when Tanping jumped to a move, he spoke softly.

Sure enough, the next second, Tanping raised his left foot and supported the ground with his right foot alone.

“Bend down.”

Then, Long muttered again.

Then, Tanping leaned over and twisted his waist and abdomen.

“After all, I’m not Yoriichi Tsugumi. Although I’ve learned the Sun Breathing, my flesh and blood can’t bear it… I have to rely on some movements to delay the harm of breathing to my body.” Thinking of this, Oboro shifted his attention from Tanpei’s breathing to appreciate his seemingly beautiful ‘dance’ alone.

At this time, Tan Ping was completely immersed in the process of praying.

Reached a state of selflessness.

Concentrate with all your heart.

His agile figure looks very artistic against the snowy world.

Time passed little by little, and soon several people in the room woke up one after another.

No one disturbed Tanpei, and Tanjiro stood beside his mother, quietly watching his father perform the Kagura dance.

His father had told him more than once that he should learn the Kagura dance and memorize every move, especially… the breathing.

The two maids who woke up walked to Long’s side without saying a word.

In their eyes, the dance performed by men was nothing special, and they didn’t know why it was worth their own adults to watch in person.

Many priests and shrine maidens in shrines also do this when they worship and pray for blessings.

After a while, the morning sun rose from one end of the mountain, the golden afterglow fell, and Tanping’s Kagura dance ended.

He took off his mask, with some tiny beads of sweat on his face. He looked at Long and smiled slightly.

it is more than words.

“Tankichi Kamado and Akemiko… are your ancestors. The Kagura dance you performed is actually a formalized movement that inherited the Sun Breathing.” Suddenly, Oboro said, “Although some of the inheritance is deeply rooted in memory, in order to avoid loss caused by the passage of time, a set of movements is used to form specific memory points, which can effectively avoid omissions.”

“Your ancestors kept their promise.”

“…”

Hearing this, Tanping was suddenly stunned.

But he soon recovered and said with a smile: “I can no longer remember anything about my ancestors…but this Kagura dance was passed down to me by my father, who asked me to keep it in mind. I am only practicing it.”

“You are proficient in the Breathing of the Sun. Although you cannot reach the ultimate level, you should have ‘seen’ him… He is the man I mentioned, Yoriichi Tsugukuni. The soul is also the carrier of inherited memories… Whether it was in a dream or a moment of trance, you have seen him after all.”

Long strolled forward, bent down, stepped over the hemp rope, and stepped into the field.

He extended a hand: “Your intuition is very accurate. Although I came here for the Breath of the Sun… I have no bad intentions, otherwise you wouldn’t show it.”

“I just want to confirm one thing through your breathing.”

Long smiled and said: “Let’s confirm, Tsugikoku Yoriichi’s level…”

“you do not mind?”

He waved his hand.

Tanpei thought about it, took off the mask and placed it in Long’s hand.

“grown ups…”

Seeing this, the two maids hurriedly tried to stop it.

They already knew what Long was going to do…

Wow.

Oboro tore off her haori and threw it away, wearing only a thin piece of underwear inside and put on the mask.

Then, all the movements of Tanping’s dance just now emerged in his mind, but not Tanping’s posture, but the flow map of air in his body with every movement and every breath.

“Sun Breathing is the origin of all breathing techniques… The original intention of breathing techniques is to strengthen the heart, lungs and other tissues and increase blood oxygen levels, so that physical energy can show an explosive trend in a short period of time. But Sun Breathing is too strong and not suitable for everyone… Therefore, just like the Kagura dance you dance, in order to adapt to the rhythm and rhythm of this breathing, you have to perform some movements to cooperate when using it to weaken the side effects of breathing.”

As he spoke, Long suddenly made a starting stance that was completely different from Tanpei’s.

“Relying on external movements to slow down the energy of breathing itself is too passive.”

“You are catering to your breath, not letting your breath cater to you… Remember, you are the master, the one who controls your breath. The breath should not be above you… This is wrong.”

“However, it is precisely because many people cannot understand the original meaning of ‘breathing’ that, like your ancestors, they choose to passively cater to it, relying on external movements and special training methods, etc., that a large number of different breathing methods have been derived…”

“It’s like two pieces of wood. In order to force them together, one of them must be ground off or corrected… and you chose to grind off yourself.”

“All breathing techniques are derived from the Breathing of the Sun…”

“What we really need to do is to move upwards… The Breath of the Sun should be a seed that grows vigorously upwards, not a long beard that takes root deeply downwards.”

Every word that Long said was like thunder in Tanping’s ears.

Because when Oboro was talking, it didn’t affect his movements at all, and… Tanping also noticed that Oboro’s dance moves were just random.

It is caused by the lack of circulation of Qi in the body.

He can move however he wants.

But it was obvious…Long’s body was weaker than his, yet he was not ‘injured’.

Under the sunlight, Long was like a bird bathing in golden clouds, as agile and light as Tan Ping just now, but with a touch of fiery and strongness!

Snapped!

Long’s waist was like a fully drawn bow. When it stretched and tumbled, the whole spine crackled. The footsteps were full of power, and each step could raise three feet of snow. If he hadn’t seen it with his own eyes, Tan Ping would have found it hard to imagine that Long’s thin body could burst out with such a vital “energy”.

Even the bonfire nearby seemed to be affected, and the flames surged higher…

“His breath…his energy can even affect external objects.”

A thought flashed through Tan Ping’s blank brain.

“Breathing is a piece of soil. What we need to do is addition…not subtraction.” Long said again.

After a while, Long put away his posture.

Everyone discovered that within a ten-meter radius centered on him, the thick snow around him had melted into ice water and seeped into the frozen soil.

It was because of his breathing that the heat from the campfire spread.

Tsugikoku Yoshiichi.

“If he joins Hunter x Hunter, he will definitely become a top Nen user… After all, here, he is a born prodigy. The level he has reached is incomprehensible to others. There is no way to start from him and move forward… We can only be compatible with him.”

Long took off his mask and thought to himself, “But if he wants to gain a foothold in the Dark Continent, with his level… it’s almost impossible.”

Sun Breathing… is considered to be relatively complicated among breathing techniques.

That’s all.

That being said, if we can use the power of Yoriichi Tsugumi as a starting point, and develop the breathing method from the bottom up, and derive various powers, then… Demon Slayer will no longer be a low-level world, it can at least reach the level of a mid-level world.

It is precisely because other breathing methods are mostly simplified versions that the strength system is very poor.

When he thought of this, Long seemed to sense something and suddenly looked up at the rising sun.

“You want me to… help you?”

A breeze blew on my face, my eyelids twitched, and I said lightly.

He saw a tree.

A small tree growing in a greenhouse.

The space inside the greenhouse is large enough for the tree to grow over five meters tall and flourish.

But at this time, the tree was less than three meters high, with sparse branches and withered shade.

Following the normal trajectory, it… still has room to grow.

“No wonder…I traveled through time and space here.”

I finally understood.

“Let’s make a deal. Accept my will of inheritance… and I will serve as the nutrients for your secondary growth. As for how much you can grow… it all depends on your fate.”

“I will make the power system of this world explode again in the form of ‘seeds’.”

Long calmly responded to what he felt with his heart.

After hearing this, the little tree swayed gently to express its gratitude.

“I originally wanted to use Tsugikoku Yoriichi as a starting point to create brilliant sparks…but I didn’t expect…it to go against my wishes.”

“The seeds were well selected, but unfortunately… whether they can grow well or not… is affected by many factors.”
