Chapter 164: Swallowing Ghosts and Becoming Stronger
The group then began to collect the bodies in the house and buried their relatives next to their father's grave.

After a simple prayer, the group set off.

Nezuko had also woken up during this period, but because Ye Ming was holding her back, she did not go crazy, and she gradually regained consciousness.
Although he still can't speak and seems to have some amnesia, it's not a big problem.

Just like in the plot, Nezuko was made to bite a bamboo to prevent her from biting other people.

In order to facilitate movement, a large box was made for Nezuko to crawl into, and Tanjiro carried it on his back.

As for Ye Ming, his body was wrapped tightly in a layer of black cloth, just like a nightgown.

After just a day of walking, Ye Ming could no longer suppress his appetite, mainly because he was too hungry.

Tanjiro hurriedly supported Ye Ming, his eyes full of anxiety.

Tomioka Giyuu drew out the Nichirin sword in his hand and said, "If you are in pain, then let me help you get rid of it."

Ye Ming smiled bitterly and said, "Can you catch a pheasant for me?"

"Only human flesh and blood can make ghosts stop craving for it."

Having said that, Giyu Tomioka still went to catch pheasants.

Not long after, he shot a pheasant and threw it in front of Ye Ming.

Ye Mingming had no appetite for the pheasant in front of him, but the nine-headed dragon behind him pounced on it hungrily and tore the pheasant into pieces in just a moment.

As the Nine-Headed Dragon swallowed gurglingly, Ye Ming felt that his body was actually full.

The hunger I had felt before has disappeared, but the desire for flesh and blood has not. Fortunately, I have been able to suppress it.

Sure enough.

Ye Ming had an excited smile on his face. Relying on his strange body, he was indeed not controlled by the ghost's desire to devour.

Tanjiro also said excitedly: "My brother can really be controlled, that's great!"

Giyu Tomioka was also a little surprised that there really was a ghost that could suppress its desire for humans.

Looking at the nine heads gradually shrinking behind Ye Ming, Giyu Tomioka could roughly guess why Ye Ming could control his appetite.

This should be related to his blood magic, which allows him to devour the flesh and blood of others to replenish his own nutrition.

This can only be said to be an isolated case, but Giyu Tomioka has a new idea.

If a ghost can be made to stand on the side of humans, there is no way to let him infiltrate the ghost community. Perhaps the young man in front of him has great potential for training.

With Ye Ming and Shui Zhu working together, the journey was very safe. Although some ignorant little ghosts appeared, they were all dealt with by Ye Ming personally.

Ye Ming also discovered that the nine-headed dragon behind him had a new use, which was to eat ghosts.

The digestion ability of these nine dragons is a bit unreasonable. No matter how strong the ghost's regeneration ability is, once it is completely eaten, it will not be able to regenerate.

And after eating the ghost, Ye Ming found that he had become a little stronger, which made him find a way to become stronger.

Following Giyu Tomioka, he was eventually brought to Sagiri Mountain.

The previous generation Water Pillar, Urokodaki Sakonji, appeared in front of Ye Ming wearing a ferocious Tengu mask.

And a knife was silently placed on Ye Ming's neck. The opponent's speed was too fast, and cold sweat broke out on Ye Ming's forehead.

Even though his reaction speed was enhanced, he was still unable to avoid the knife. This world is really dangerous.

Tanjiro saw this and shouted: "Don't hurt my brother, he is a good ghost, he doesn't eat people!" "Is there a ghost that doesn't eat people?"

Tomioka Giyu nodded, and Ye Ming swallowed and said, “Well, uncle, I can suppress my desire for people.

But I need to eat some flesh and blood of other animals to make up for my own consumption."

Zuo Jinci looked at Ye Ming deeply, then put away the knife and said, "So, Yiyong, what is your purpose in bringing them here?"

"Their families were harmed by ghosts."

Tomioka Giyuu's words were always brief, and Sakonji knew what he meant.

"Okay, this is really interesting. I have never taught a ghost apprentice in my life, but as a ghost, if you want to learn my swordsmanship, you have to kill 100 ghosts for me before you come to me."

Sakonji stared at Ye Ming through the mask.

Although he acknowledged that Ye Ming did not eat humans and would not kill him, he did not think that Ye Ming would necessarily stand on the side of humans.

So Ye Ming had to surrender. Ye Ming nodded without complaint and said, "Okay, but it's hard to find the ghost. I want to work with Brother Yiyong in advance to kill the ghost!"

Tanjiro said worriedly: "Brother, are you really okay?"

Ye Ming smiled and said, "Of course, no problem. We still have to get rid of the last evil ghost!"

Sakonji looked at Ye Ming deeply. Is this ghost referring to Muzan?
If he simply stayed there to practice kendo, Ye Ming actually felt that his upgrading speed would slow down.

At this time, just go and kill the ghosts. As long as you keep killing ghosts, you will gain more and more power.

Ye Ming prefers to become stronger in battle, with his talent of doubling his agility, coupled with his own blood magic.

Ye Ming believed that it would be easy to deal with ordinary ghosts, especially since he had the water column to support him.

Giyu Tomioka certainly had no objection to letting Ye Ming follow him, although he had observed over the past few days that Ye Ming would indeed not attack anyone.

But I am still worried. After all, demons eat people, which is a deeply rooted impression in the Demon Slayer Corps.

So in the following period of time, Ye Mingdu and Tomioka Giyuu acted together, and all they did was kill ghosts.

And every time, Ye Ming would grab the kill, and when he encountered a ghost, he would go up and beat the ghost to a pulp.

Or let Giyu Tomioka beat the opponent first, and then Ye Ming will go up and eat this ghost.

As he devoured more and more ghosts, Ye Ming found that his body had also evolved.

Now Ye Ming can grab a head and directly turn it into a bone sword.

After obtaining the weapon, Ye Ming also learned swordsmanship with Tomioka Giyuu, and the other party did not hide it for himself.

He also taught Ye Ming the trick of water breathing, and he was very curious about how much Ye Ming could learn.

The breathing method of this world is a wonderful use of Qi. When Ye Ming used it for the first time, he realized that he could indeed use Qi.

Perhaps it was due to the ghost's physique, the water breathing he displayed directly turned into black water, which at first glance looked somewhat similar to oil.

After continuous killings, the number of ghosts killed by Ye Ming has actually exceeded 100.

As his physique grew stronger, Ye Ming's various stats were already able to crush Tomioka Giyuu, and he was finally no longer as frightened as before.

However, after two years of getting along, Giyu Tomioka gradually regarded Ye Ming as a friend.
