After reading the detailed information about Daki, Lin Yi suddenly realized something.
He finally understood why the Demon Slayer Corps had been unable to make any substantial progress against the Upper-Rank Demons for more than a hundred years.
Whether in terms of attributes or skills, there is an insurmountable gap between the pillars of the Demon Slayer Corps and the upper-rank demons.
Unless they can wait until Tanjiro awakens his markings like in the original work and bring new powers to the Demon Slayer Corps, they will not be able to compete with the Upper-rank demons with the breathing techniques they have mastered now.
Butterfly calmly put her hands into the wide sleeves of her kimono and silently sprinkled the special medicine powder on the ground.
Dakimakami didn't pay attention to Shinobu Kocho's little movements. The irritation on her face became more and more obvious. The ribbons around her body began to twist restlessly, as if reflecting her emotions, as if conveying her inner dissatisfaction and anxiety.
Daki's eyes moved between Shinobu Kocho and Lin Yi. She waited for their responses, but both of them remained silent.
This kind of disregard pushed Daki's patience to its limit. She decided not to wait any longer and prepared to capture the two men for interrogation.
Daki swung her arms violently, and a ribbon behind her rushed towards the two of them like an arrow.
Lin Yi and Shinobu Kocho made the decision almost at the same moment and left the spot in a flash.
The ribbon carried a powerful impact, but it missed and only hit the place where they were originally standing.
With a loud bang, the originally hard bluestone slab instantly shattered into several pieces under the impact of the ribbon, and the fragments flew everywhere.
"Okay, just leave her to me."
In Lin Yi's eyes, Dakimakura was no longer a terrifying evil ghost, but a large number of world sources and treasure chests, which were important resources to help Black and White Rose advance.
After killing three of the Twelve Ghost Moons, the origin of death contained in the black rose in Lin Yi's hand has skyrocketed to 75%, and he is only one step away from promotion.
The appearance of Daki was undoubtedly a generous gift for him.
Shinobu Kocho seemed to want to say something, but looking into Lin Yi's eyes, she finally said nothing. She quietly stepped aside and left the battlefield to Lin Yi and Daki.
"Oh? Do you want to fight me in a duel?" A playful smile appeared on Daki's face, and her tone revealed contempt and provocation.
Although she has become an evil spirit, Daki does not dislike the plot in the story.
For Duji, this duel with Lin Yi was more like a game that she could fully devote herself to and enjoy.
"Demon Slayer Corps, Doctor."
"Upper Moon Land, Dakimaki."
After Lin Yi and Du Ji introduced themselves to each other, the chirping of insects around them seemed to have weakened a little due to the solemn atmosphere.
There was an inexplicable murderous intent in the air, which quietly invaded every corner of the mansion like a cold mist. Even Shinobu Kocho, who was on the brink of battle, could feel the biting chill.
Suddenly, the two figures disappeared almost at the same time, and two figures appeared in mid-air.
The ribbon in Du Ji's hand kept colliding with the black and white rose sword in Lin Yi's hand. Every collision made a sound of metal clashing, and sparks flew in the night sky, like gorgeous fireworks blooming continuously.
The figures of both sides intertwined, dodged, and attacked in the air at a speed that was too fast to keep up.
With his superb sword skills and keen observation, Lin Yi was able to resolve Daki's attacks time and time again.
And Daki was not to be outdone. She flexibly manipulated the ribbon in her hand, sometimes making it dance softly like a silk ribbon, and sometimes lashing like a steel whip.
Lin Yi frowned slightly. This battle was much more difficult than he had expected.
The black and white rose, which had always been invincible, seemed a little powerless when facing the ribbon of Dakimaki.
Every time the weapons of both sides collided, he needed to put in more strength to cut the ribbon.
Little did she know that Daki was also filled with shock.
Her ribbons have been blessed by vampire magic, and their toughness is comparable to that of steel.
Lin Yi was able to cut her ribbon so easily, which made her feel a little afraid and wary of Lin Yi.
Daki snorted softly, and as she waved her hands, she summoned ribbons that were even denser than before.
Under the moonlight, these ribbons looked like long snakes, tightly wrapped around Daki's body.
They dance along with Dakimakki's movements, not only enhancing her defense but also not affecting her movements in battle at all.
Du Ji raised her arm suddenly, and a ribbon was swung towards Lin Yi like a long whip.
The ribbon came towards Lin Yi with a whistling sound.
Lin Yi's eyes flashed, and he stepped forward with the black and white rose in his hand.
With a clang sound, several pieces of ribbon cut by the black and white rose slowly fell from the air like fallen leaves in autumn.
Daki didn't even look at the fallen ribbon fragments. She smiled gently, and new ribbons emerged behind her and wrapped around her body again.
Daki no longer held back and used all her strength to activate the blood demon art. Countless ribbons gathered behind her, forming a sea of ribbons that covered the sky and the sun.
The entire sky seemed to be covered by these ribbons, exuding a solemn and murderous atmosphere.
Following a delicate cry from Du Ji, dozens of ribbons shot towards Lin Yi like sharp arrows.
These ribbons are extremely fast and contain powerful force, as if they can tear the air apart.
