Shen Lue and the other two turned around.

This is a very young boy, with a bit of immaturity in his handsome appearance. He looks about the same age as them, probably just an adult.

"Ah, I forgot to introduce myself.

"I'm Zenitsu!"

The boy has short, orange, semi-length hair. The ends of his hair are folded at each end, making him look like a layer of thunderclouds.

Huicong opened his mouth wide:

"Zhenyi?

"Is it because you are often scared to sleep when encountering ghosts, and only make up for it when you are occasionally awakened? The current Thunder Pillar - my wife Zenitsu?"

As a loyal fan of Demon Slayer Squad, Hui Chong is very familiar with important figures and deeds.

The appearance of the person in front of me is very similar to the Thunder Pillar in the album.

It's just that the facial features don't look alike.

Shanyi's eyes widened and he quickly waved his hand:

"what the hell!

"It's not what you said!

“Well—well, that’s not important.

"That Thunder Pillar is called my wife Zenitsu, and this is my grandson Zenitsu. We just happen to have the same name. In fact, it doesn't matter at all."

Huicong looked at him carefully:

"But your style, hair, and clothes are all similar to those of Lei Zhu."

Zenitsu touched his hair:

"Ah? This

"I am a follower of the wise, mighty, invincible, handsome, brave and fearless Lei Zhu! That's why I dress up like him~"

He pulled at his face hard:

"Look, he and I look completely different!

"I'm just like you, just an ordinary participant in this runoff."

Shen was a little doubtful, so he took a deep breath.

Well, when Zenitsu came to me, the oxygen concentration in the air became significantly lower.

It proves that his attainments in breathing techniques are very profound.

Shen Lue nodded and agreed:

"Okay, let's take action together after we enter Tengxi Mountain."

Of course, the stronger the partner, the better.

As for whether he is a Lei Zhu or not, and what relationship he has with the current Lei Zhu, it doesn't matter.

"Fellow swordsmen."

At this time, two girls in kimonos walked out from the entrance of the wisteria forest. They glanced around and began to read out the rules expressionlessly:

"You need to survive in the mountains for seven days and seven nights. Only the swordsmen who come out alive can become official team members.

"Those who pass will directly obtain the status of Gui-level team member.

"At the same time, you will get the Demon Slayer uniform, the exclusive messenger crow, and the metal materials to make the new Nichirin sword."

Two girls gave way to the entrance:

“The runoff begins now.

"I wish all the swordsmen good luck."

"Let's go!"

Shen Lue and the two of them took the lead and started walking through the wisteria forest.

Zenitsu followed closely behind the two.

When he passed the entrance, the two girls who had just read out the rules covered their mouths and seemed very surprised by his arrival:

"How are you?"

Shhh——

"I'm here to carry out the tasks assigned by the Lord."

He quickly put his index finger to his lips to signal them to be silent, and then quickly followed Shen Lue and Hui Cong who were about to leave.

The swordsmen quickly dispersed according to regulations, with no more than two or three people forming a team.

Passing through the flower forest, the scene inside the Tengxi Mountain appeared in front of them.

"Hiss~

"It's a bit spooky."

Huicong shuddered and began to recite Buddhist scriptures silently.

There are ancient trees of unknown age growing in the mountain. The light is already dim at night, and the moonlight is blocked by the thick shade of the trees, making the place look even more terrifying.

Shen Lue looked around:

"It's so quiet."

"We just passed through the flower forest, so of course it was quiet."

Zenitsu chuckled: "Wisteria flowers have a very strong restraint effect on ghosts, so they don't dare to get close to the edge. The closer to the center, the more ghosts there are.

"Do not worry!"

He patted his chest vigorously:

"I can guarantee that as long as you stay in the outer circle, the probability of encountering a ghost is zero."

Roar--

Before he finished speaking, a hoarse growl came.

Shanyi: (ΦωΦ)?

He was stunned immediately.

Shen blinked slightly, and he saw Shan Yi's expression change from confident, to surprised, and finally turned pale with shock.

"This this"

Shan Yi pointed behind Shen Lue with his eyes wide open:

"Why would a ghost appear here?

"Whoa, ah, ah, run quickly——"

Before he could run away, the ghost that had just roared rushed out of the dark night and blocked the path of the three of them.

"Roar~"

This ghost has gray skin, huge and swollen eye sockets, and a skinny body.

He kept growling and didn't seem to be able to speak.

Although Monk Huicong had been studying for a long time, this was the first time he encountered a real ghost. His legs were shaking nervously, and it took a lot of effort before he pulled out the Sun Lun Dao:

"No, don't be afraid!

"This ghost can't even speak and is very weak. As long as we join forces, we will definitely be able to do it."

He looked back:

"Eh?

"What are you doing!"

My grandson Shanyi was already frothing at the mouth, his eyes rolled until only the whites of his eyes were left, and he collapsed on the ground covered in soft tissue.

Hulu~

He even dozed off.

And Shen Lue stood quietly on the spot, holding Rilun Dao in his arms casually:

"Forehead--

"Master Huicong, you should be able to deal with this kind of ghost yourself."

Monk Huicong couldn't help but cover his face.

God, what kind of teammates did I meet?

So he had to go up to it himself.

"Breath of Wind, Type Two, Claw Kodo Wind!"

Huicong swung the sun blade and simultaneously slashed out four sharp blade-like winds. They lined up in a row and clawed at the evil ghost like a tiger's claws.

However, due to nervousness, the speed of the knife was slower.

The evil ghost just jumped and escaped from the attack range.

Click!

The strong wind slashed at the ancient trees behind, cutting the ancient tree trunks as thick as a hug into four sections.

Shen slightly raised his eyebrows:

"Oh, that's okay."

Although he didn't successfully hit the target, he could still see the strength of Huicong's attack. It can be seen that he has benefited a lot from training with Fengzhu Immortal Kawa Saneya over the years.

Soon, one man and one ghost began to confront each other head-on.

HC is obviously stronger.

But perhaps because he had never experienced actual combat, his whole body was trembling due to nervousness, which resulted in him being dodged by more than ten swords in a row.

Ouch——

Ouch——

The sound of fighting quickly attracted the attention of other ghosts. In the surrounding dark jungle, the low roars of many ghosts gradually appeared, as if countless pairs of eyes were watching.

Hearing the roar of the ghost, Huicong became even more nervous.

Beads of sweat kept dripping from his forehead, and his breathing technique was no longer smooth.

Shen slightly frowned:

"It's a bit troublesome to delay it like this."

Seeing that the battle situation was getting tense, he drew out his Nichirin sword and stepped forward.

CHUA!

A flash of red light.

The next second, Huicong looked at the head that fell to the ground in disbelief: "This"

He looked at Shen Lue.

At this time, Shen Lue's Sun Lun Sword was hung steadily on his waist, as if it had never been taken out of its sheath:

"solve."

"Jing, Jingze benefactor.

"So you, you are so much better than me!"

Huicong was very surprised.

I originally thought that after two years of hard training, I could catch up with the footsteps of Jingze Donor, and even wanted to proudly show off my skills in front of him.

Unexpectedly, the gap is getting wider and wider.

"Well"

The ghost head that did not dissipate immediately opened its blood-red eyes and moved desperately towards the wisteria forest.

Perhaps because it was too weak, it did not get rid of its ghost transformation and return to human form when it was about to die.

Huicong touched his bald head:

"Huh?

"Ghosts should be afraid of wisteria flowers. How do they behave?

"A little eager?"
