This fact shocked Tanjiro Kamado and Sakonji Urokodaki, who couldn't understand how Chen Anxia could even eliminate his own scent.
Naturally, both Tanjiro Kamado and Sakonji Urokodaki noticed Chen Anxia, who was soaking wet.
Although water would block the smell, Chen Anxia wasn't actually soaked all over; there were always some areas that weren't wet or had already dried.
The scents emanating from these places were enough for Tanjiro Kamado and Sakonji Urokodaki to detect.
This also means that Chen Anxia's ability to block his own scent was not due to Chen Anxia's water.
Come to think of it, if Chen Anxia wanted to eliminate his own scent with water, he would have to be completely covered in water to make it possible.
'So, how did Anxia do it?'
This question popped into Tanjiro Kamado's mind, leaving him completely baffled.
As for Urokodaki Sakonji, after his initial stunned silence, he seemed to realize something, his pupils suddenly contracted, and he looked at Chen Anxia and asked in a trembling voice, "Anxia, could it be that you have reached the limit of the Water Breathing Technique?"
Tanjiro Kamado was stunned for a moment upon hearing this, and then a look of shock appeared on his face.
Although Tanjiro Kamado had never heard of the ultimate state of Water Breathing before, he was still able to understand what it meant through the text.
Chen Anxia nodded slightly and replied, "That's right, I have reached the limit of the Water Breathing Technique."
Upon receiving an affirmative answer, Urokodaki Sakonji's face lit up with delight, and he repeatedly exclaimed, "Good! Good! Good!"
"I never imagined that I would witness the ultimate state of the Water Breathing Technique in my lifetime."
As he spoke, Urokodaki Sakonji looked at Chen Anxia with a mixture of trepidation and anticipation and continued, "Anxia, could you please demonstrate the profound mysteries of the Limit Realm?"
Upon hearing this, Tanjiro Kamado, who was standing to the side, also looked at Chen Anxia with anticipation.
Upon seeing this, Chen Anxia nodded and replied, "Of course, no problem."
Without hesitation, Chen Anxia explained his views on the Limit Realm, which was the truth he had come to understand, while demonstrating the profound mysteries of the Limit Realm.
Tanjiro Kamado and Sakonji Urokodaki watched with rapt attention, lost in a state of enlightenment.
In this state, the passage of time is no longer perceived by them.
Even after Chen Anxia's preaching ended, they were still unable to withdraw from their enlightenment.
It wasn't until the sun rose the next day that they suddenly realized what had happened.
On this day, as promised, Tanjiro Kamado embarked on his journey to Mount Fujisake to participate in the final Demon Slayer Test.
Just as Tanjiro Kamado left, Sakonji Urokodaki, kneeling under the eaves and watching his departing figure with a smile, slowly spoke, "Anxia, I'm leaving. The children have come to pick me up..."
At the very moment those words were spoken, Urokodaki Sakonji passed away peacefully.
Chen Anxia, however, shed tears for the first time since coming into this world.
......
Chapter 506 Unexpected Change, Chen Anxia Makes His Appearance!
After handling the funeral arrangements for Urokodaki Sakonji, Chen Anxia finally visited Urokodaki Sakonji's grave to pay his respects.
"Mr. Urokodaki, I'm leaving now. The next memorial service will be after I have completely annihilated Muzan Kibutsuji."
"By then, we won't leave until we're completely drunk."
With that, Chen Anxia resolutely turned around and, with Jiguo Jingzi and Qian Weiyang, headed towards Tengxi Mountain.
At this moment, Chen Anxia was carrying a wooden backpack that Kamado Tanjiro had specially made for Kamado Nezuko.
Since Urokodaki Sakonji had passed away, Chen Anxia, who was about to leave, certainly could not leave Kamado Nezuko, who was still in a coma, unattended.
It just so happens that Chen Anxia is also going back to Tengxishan. He can find an opportunity to hand over Kamado Nezuko to Kamado Tanjiro then.
Time passes gradually.
About five days later, Tanjiro Kamado arrived at Tengshan.
Because Tanjiro Kamado wasn't familiar with the route, it took him a lot longer.
Although Chen Anxia set off a day later than Kamado Tanjiro, he knew the way and arrived at Tengxi Mountain shortly after Kamado Tanjiro.
Chen Anxia was originally worried that Jiguo Jingzi would not be able to stand the sea of wisteria flowers on Tengxi Mountain.
But when they arrived at the wisteria sea on Tengxi Mountain, Chen Anxia discovered that Jiguo Jingzi was neither affected by the sunlight nor by the wisteria flowers.
Chen Anxia could only attribute this to the bloodline of Kyoko Tsugikuni.
As for Nezuko Kamado, perhaps because she herself is also special, or perhaps because she is asleep, she cannot perceive the wisteria flower sea outside and remains in a deep sleep.
Chen Anxia knew that the reason why Nezuko Kamado had been asleep for nearly two years was because she was modifying her body on her own while asleep.
After her body was modified, Nezuko Kamado was able to recover her strength without relying on human flesh and blood, instead restoring it through sleep.
Although Kyoko Tsugikuni was very special from birth, able to withstand sunlight and wisteria flowers, she still needed human flesh and blood to recover her strength.
Of course, Chen Anxia would never actually let Jiguo Jingzi devour humans.
Chen Anxia had been using his own blood to help Jiguo Jingzi regain her strength.
Moreover, nourished by Chen Anxia's own blood, Kyoko Tsugikuni's strength grew stronger, her speech became clearer, and she became more able to control her demonic instincts.
The reason for this is that Chen Anxia's blood has an extremely strong effect on ghosts, even surpassing that of rare blood.
It should be noted that rare blood is a rarity among human blood types, and when consumed by demons, it can have the effect of consuming dozens or even hundreds of people.
The reason why Chen Anxia's blood has such effects is ultimately due to the system's reward of a physique that becomes stronger when facing stronger opponents.
If we were to use the language of fantasy worlds, Chen Anxia's physique, which becomes stronger when facing stronger opponents, would be a special physique, similar to a royal physique or a divine physique, so it wouldn't be surprising if he had this effect.
After entering the wisteria flower sea of Tengxi Mountain, Chen Anxia followed the scent left behind by Kamado Tanjiro and searched all the way there.
Chen Anxia's sense of smell has now been completely transformed.
During the time he spent with Urokodaki Sakonji, Chen Anxia not only learned the Water Breathing Technique from him, but also, through his constitution that makes him stronger when facing stronger opponents, perfectly evolved and gave birth to Urokodaki's extraordinary sense of smell within his own body.
In other words, Chen Anxia's sense of smell has now surpassed that of Kamado Tanjiro at this time, and is comparable to that of Urokodaki Sakonji.
Soon, Chen Anxia followed Tanjiro Kamado's scent and arrived at the meeting place for the Demon Slayer Final Test.
On the way, Chen Anxia heard the voices of the two examiners in charge of the final test for the Ghost Hunter.
"...In this Tengxi Mountain, many ghosts are imprisoned who were captured alive by ghost hunters, and those ghosts cannot leave this place."
"This is because the wisteria flowers, which those ghosts hate the most, bloom all year round, from the foot of the mountain to the belly of the mountain."
"But from here on, because there are no wisteria flowers, ghosts have been appearing."
"Surviving in this place for seven days is the qualification requirement for the final selection..."
Before he could finish speaking, the examiner noticed something, his gaze involuntarily turning towards the entrance, his expression slightly taken aback.
The examiner noticed the unusual situation and couldn't help but look over.
Not only the examiner standing to the side, but also all the demon hunter candidates participating in the final demon hunter test noticed the examiner's unusual behavior and turned their gazes toward the entrance.
Tanjiro Kamado was no exception.
In their field of vision, they saw Kyoko Tsugikuni carrying Miyo Inu slowly walking towards them.
Indeed, they all subconsciously overlooked Chen Anxia standing next to Kyoko Tsugikuni at first glance.
The reason for this is not because Kyoko Tsugikuni is more attractive to them.
Rather, it was because Chen Anxia was constantly activating the Transparent World and was fully enveloped in the Water Breathing Technique, having reached its limit and comprehended the essence of water, thus constantly eliminating his own fighting spirit, killing intent, and scent.
Because they only saw Kyoko Tsugikuni holding Mio Inui at first glance, everyone present except Tanjiro Kamado was stunned.
Their first thought was that Kyoko Tsugikuni had taken the wrong turn.
After all, who would bring a one-and-a-half-year-old girl to participate in such a dangerous final test?
After his initial shock, Tanjiro Kamado quickly recovered and exclaimed in surprise, "Anxia, Kyoko-nee, what brings you here?"
After hearing Tanjiro Kamado's words, the others suddenly noticed Chen Anxia, who had an extraordinary and outstanding demeanor and was carrying a large wooden box next to Kyoko Tsugikuni.
Upon hearing this, some of them suddenly changed their expressions, realizing something was amiss.
Among them, the timid Zenitsu couldn't help but mutter, "Who is he? Is he also a participant in this final test?"
"It's so strange that I didn't even notice his presence..."
"Will more bizarre things happen next? How scary..."
"As expected, I'm not cut out to be a demon slayer. Waaah, I want to go home..."
At the same time, Chen Anxia looked at Kamado Tanjiro and said, "Tanjiro, I came to tell you that after you finish the Demon Slayer final test, don't rush to leave. Wait for me here for a while. I have something to tell you."
At this moment, Tanjiro Kamado also saw the large wooden box that he had made on Chen Anxia's back.
Although he didn't understand what had happened, Tanjiro Kamado trusted Chen Anxia completely, and nodded vigorously in agreement after hearing Chen Anxia's words.
Seeing this, Chen Anxia prepared to leave and head to the headquarters of the Homecoming Organization.
Just then, Genya Shinazugawa, who had a naturally fierce face and an impatient personality, stepped forward, pointed his black double-barreled musket at Chen Anxia, and said fiercely, "Wait, don't you have something to explain?"
"It's like having a ghost following you around!"
......
Chapter 507: Cutting Bullets with Fingers, Surpassing the Pillars!
ghost!?
Everyone present was stunned for a moment after hearing Shinazugawa Genya's words, and then turned their gaze to Kyoko Tsugikuni next to Chen Anxia.
As for Qian Weiyang, who was only one and a half years old, they automatically ignored her.
Immediately, a heated discussion broke out at the scene.
"A ghost? No way, people actually carry ghosts with them?"
"That's fake, how could a human possibly carry a ghost, unless he himself is a ghost!"
"Yes, the ghost's instinct would make him keep devouring humans. If the woman next to him were a ghost, he would have been devoured long ago."
"Unless, he himself is a ghost!"
"Wait a minute, didn't the examiner just say that ghosts hate wisteria flowers? If that woman really is a ghost, how come she didn't make a single move in the sea of wisteria flowers?"
