Chapter 209: The Birth of the Ghost King (Part )
"When I saw my wife's body, she was already...shrunken, like a mummy!"
Anger burned in the Ghost King's eyes.
"I heard from other demon hunters that the one who killed my wife was a demon that could suck the blood of others."
"According to the investigation of the Demon Hunter Academy, this demon came from the world of Demon Slayer, but even in the Book of Inheritance, there is no record of this demon beast."
"It likes to eat human blood. Although it is not very big, it is extremely powerful. Even my wife, who is already a six-star demon hunter, is no match for it."
"Its level has been determined to be a seven-star monster!"
Seven Stars!?
Qin Shi was shocked when he heard the Ghost King’s story.
The Seven-Star Monster is almost the strongest monster that humans have ever faced, and is the king among the seventh-level monsters.
If used to describe the level of disaster, it is also called "natural disaster level".
Every appearance of a seven-star monster is like a natural disaster.
I didn't expect that in the world of "Demon Slayer" with low spiritual power level, there would be monsters with strength rating of up to seven stars.
In history, there are only three seven-star monsters that humans have confronted head-on and successfully defeated.
One is the Nine-Tails, the strongest tailed beast from the world of Naruto, which was captured and sealed by the first dean of the Demon Hunting Academy.
The second was killed by the fourth-generation dean and the four gold medal lecturers of the academy. He was cunning by nature and hid among humans. He was the ultimate Digimon Joker King from the world of [Digimon].
The third is Bai Qi, the strongest dean of the Demon Hunting Academy, who inherited the Whitebeard from One Piece. He was killed during the beast tide invasion ten years ago. The elephant lord, who was as big as an island and came from the world of One Piece, was killed.
As for the Seven-Star Vampire that Ghost King Nai mentioned, who killed Lecturer Kikyo, Qin Shi also saw a brief introduction.
However, this seven-star monster was not killed by the teacher of the Monster Hunting Academy. Instead, it escaped back to the monster realm and disappeared from then on.
Could it be that this seven-star monster was killed by the Ghost King?
Qin Shi guessed in his heart.
However, Nai Lian was not even a demon hunter at that time, and had not yet grown into the future Ghost King. How could he kill the powerful Seven-Star Demon Beast?
"As you can imagine, I want to kill that vampire more than anyone else, but I am no match for it."
"But so what!!!"
"You murdered my wife, and now you want to escape into the demon realm after facing a joint attack from humans?"
"The demon hunters in the academy can let it go, but I can't!"
The Ghost King said coldly.
"I was determined to die, and I followed him all the way to the demon realm with the biological bomb I made, the [Rose of the Poor]."
"But when I found this vampire in the demon realm, it was already dying and motionless."
The Ghost King said slowly.
Qin Shi was stunned.
Is there a being that can actually defeat the Seven-Star Monster Vampire?
And according to the academy's records, the Seven-Star Vampire has the ability to heal itself instantly.
Even if your head is chopped off, you can regenerate quickly.
The entire Demon Hunting Academy has not found a way to kill the Seven-Star Vampire.
Therefore, even though the third-generation dean summoned a large number of demon hunters to encircle and suppress the Seven-Star Vampire, it still escaped into the demon realm.
Who could make such a powerful being almost die?
"I don't know who it is either..."
The Ghost King saw through Qin Shi’s thoughts again, and he closed his eyes and recalled.
"I only remember that there was a horse hoof-like mark on the ground. The area of the horse hoof mark was as large as a valley. I just stood in the mark and felt the pressure that made my knees weak."
"And the Seven Star Vampire is lying in the center of the horseshoe print."
"I guess it was simply stepped on by a giant monster in the demon realm. Although its body has recovered, its soul has been shattered."
"The soul of the Seven Star Vampire... was crushed alive!"
Hearing this, Qin Shi was horrified.
How powerful must this monster be to be able to crush the soul of a seven-star monster with one foot?
Eight stars? Nine stars? Or even stronger?
There is actually such a creature in the demon realm. If it intends to invade Jiuzhou, it will be a disaster that will destroy the world.
Without giving Qin Shi more time to think divergently, the Ghost King continued.
"The moment I found the Seven Star Vampire, anger rushed straight to my brain. This anger allowed me to quickly unlock the ability inherited by Inuyasha."
"I spent three whole days and three nights eating this seven-star vampire almost on instinct."
"And the [Naraku] inheritance can inherit the abilities of devoured monsters. Because of this, I also gained the power of the vampire in [Demon Slayer]."
"This power makes me immortal, allows me to heal myself instantly, and can grant blood to turn others into my followers. This is how I am now!"
After finishing his story in one breath, the Ghost King seemed a little dazed.
Qin Shi looked even more strange.
First of all, the opponent's ability is obviously the same as that of the Demon King Muzan in "Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba".
If there is a difference, his ability is more like an advanced version of [Muzan]'s ability.
Because judging from the ability of blood demon magic, the blood demon magic formed by the blood given by the Blue Star Demon King is far more perverted than the blood demon magic of the demons in [Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba].
I'm afraid that the six lower-rank demons that Qin Shi faces, who use lightning, can easily defeat the upper-rank demon Kokushibo if they appear in the world of Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba.
The explanation for the birth of the Demon King is also very different from the explanation in the anime "Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba".
In the anime "Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba", the Demon King Muzan was born because he took medicine made by a doctor when he was still a human, and eventually became an immortal demon.
But such an explanation also seems extremely strange in the entire animation setting.
Can you become the strongest ghost king by taking a pill from a human doctor?
It’s unreasonable. The explanation in the comics is too unreasonable.
Therefore, the reason for the birth of the Demon King has become the biggest mystery of the anime "Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba".
Qin Shi suddenly recalled the days when he was confronting others on the forum before he traveled through time.
Regarding the question of how Muzan became the Demon King, a forum friend put forward a guess.
[ID riding a snail chasing a rocket: Look at Muzan's abilities, afraid of sunlight, giving blood to others to create followers, super strong self-healing ability, isn't this the vampire in Western mythology? ]
[In the world of Demon Slayer, there must be a powerful vampire hiding behind the worldview. 】
[So I boldly speculate that the medicine that Muzan's doctor prepared for him must contain vampire blood. ]
[For example, when this doctor was collecting herbs in the forest, some of the herbs were contaminated by vampire blood. The doctor took them back and made them into pills, which were accidentally taken by Muzan, forming the first ghost king Muzan.]
[In other words, the reason why the Demon King Muzan obtained the ability of a vampire is simply because he also happened to be the one who was "given blood" by a real vampire]
[Muzan is just a follower of a powerful vampire. 】
When Qin Shi saw this speculation, he even went online to respond.
Now, after listening to the Ghost King Nai's self-narration, Qin Shi realized that the birth of the Ghost King might indeed be in line with the speculation of that bar friend.
This also explains why Muzan's abilities in "Demon Slayer" are not enough on the Blue Planet where there are many evil spirits.
But the Hundred Demons of Blue Star became the lifelong enemy of the Demon Hunting Academy.
Because Muzan in "Demon Slayer" is just a consumer of the blood of the Seven Star Vampires and one of their ordinary followers, the abilities of the demons that are bestowed with his blood are naturally more ordinary.
As for the Ghost King Nai of Blue Star, he completely devoured the Seven Star Vampires and became a human being who gained abilities close to those of a real vampire.
The demon king who devoured the seven-star monster vampires, and the followers formed by his blood, have abilities far beyond what the demons in "Demon Slayer" can compare to.
