Chapter 56: Special Training of Rock Breathing

The temple where Gyomei Himejima practices is far from the Butterfly Mansion.

Chu Yang thought they would take the train, but he didn't expect Gyomei Himejima to take him back on foot! "Your physique is unusual and needs more severe polishing!"

This is the reason Gyomei Himejima gave Chu Yang.

But Chu Yang felt that the other party just wanted to save a train ticket.

"Ascetic monk..." Chu Yang felt a little hairy at the thought of this anti-human word. Gyomei Himejima is undoubtedly this kind of style.

Among the Hashira of the Demon Slayer Corps, the one with the strongest swordsmanship talent is Muichiro Tokito, and the one with the strongest physical talent is Gyomei Himejima.

Gyomei Himejima was originally an ordinary monk practicing in a temple and had never received the enlightenment of breathing styles.

But he was able to fight demons until dawn as an ordinary person and cause fatal damage to demons. This physical talent cannot be found in the entire *Demon Slayer* world. Because of this, Gyomei Himejima has been unable to find a suitable successor.

The sword skills he created based on his own conditions cannot be practiced by ordinary people.

After walking for a day and a night, Gyomei Himejima took Chu Yang into a deep mountain forest.

Walking to the middle of the mountain, Chu Yang saw a temple standing alone there.

Desolate and dilapidated.

Living in this kind of place, it is more difficult not to meet demons.

After entering, Chu Yang found that it was not as bad as he imagined.

The temple is not big, but the interior is clean and tidy, and even the fallen leaves in the yard are neatly swept aside and piled up.

It can be seen that Gyomei Himejima is very diligent on weekdays.

Gyomei Himejima lit all the lights in the temple.

He is a blind man, it doesn't matter whether the lights are on or not, this is to take care of Chu Yang.

After the lights were on, the small temple looked a bit warm.

"Tomorrow you will officially start swordsman training. I will give you a reminder first. The stronger the physical talent, the more serious the shackles encountered in the process of practicing breathing styles."

Gyomei Himejima said slowly in the bright light, "Breathing style is also called Total Concentration Breathing. It is a special technique created by humans to fight against demons, used to strengthen cardiopulmonary function, make blood contain a large amount of oxygen in a short time, and promote the improvement of physical functions."

Chu Yang nodded, indicating that he understood.

In fact, because Gyomei Himejima is limited by his own cognition, there is another aspect that he did not mention.

Breathing style has a certain stimulating effect on adrenaline.

Otherwise, it is difficult to raise human athletic ability to the level of demons just by increasing the oxygen content of the blood.

Gyomei Himejima continued, "Breathing is the instinct of human survival and also a necessary condition, but not everyone knows how to breathe. Next, I will teach you the correct way of breathing."

Chu Yang listened intently to Gyomei Himejima's explanation of the training method of breathing style.

After sharing talents with his "self" in other worlds, with Chu Yang's current memory and understanding ability, he only needed Gyomei Himejima to say it once, and he could deeply engrave the content in his mind.

Gyomei Himejima wanted to continue to explain in detail, but found that Chu Yang's chest was already rising and falling rhythmically like a bellows. Shallow white air currents were circulating in and out of Chu Yang's nose and mouth. This is a sign that the breathing style is running correctly.

Gyomei Himejima's pupils shrank suddenly.

Having joined the Demon Slayer Corps for so many years, he had never heard of anyone who could enter the state of Total Concentration Breathing so quickly.

Chu Yang's breathing was very steady and powerful, which is a characteristic of Rock Breathing.

Gyomei Himejima guarded quietly on the side. Beginners who breathe for the first time will not persist for a long time because the heart and lungs cannot stand long-term stimulation.

Only by continuous exercise can the breathing time be extended.

Finally, reach "Total Concentration Constant," which is to keep the body in a breathing state all the time.

And Chu Yang on the other side, every time he was about to fail to persist, a vitality would emerge from his body to nourish his heart and lungs, feeling like drinking a mouthful of ice water in midsummer, refreshing.

Chu Yang, who had been in a breathing state for a long time, not only didn't feel uncomfortable, but gradually began to enjoy it.

Time passed second by second...

Gyomei Himejima, who was guarding Chu Yang silently, noticed something wrong. Chu Yang had been in the breathing state for too long, far exceeding the average level. Based on past experience, he should have exited this state long ago.

But strangely, Chu Yang didn't seem to have any discomfort, and his face was even more ruddy than before, which puzzled Gyomei Himejima.

Gyomei Himejima could only chant Amitabha, sit in meditation quietly, and put part of his attention on Chu Yang, ready to deal with emergencies at any time.

Until dawn, Chu Yang lifted the breathing state and stretched comfortably.

At this time, Gyomei Himejima slowly opened his blind eyes and asked softly, "How do you feel? Is there any discomfort in your body?"

Chu Yang felt the state of his body and said, "My whole body is very warm, and there is no discomfort."

Gyomei Himejima felt the aura on Chu Yang, which was much stronger than before, and nodded with satisfaction, "Being able to master the breathing style quickly proves that your affinity for Rock Breathing is very high. In this way, we can save a lot of time and focus on the practice of sword skills."

Seemingly afraid that Chu Yang would be eager for success, Gyomei Himejima reminded again, "Although your first time entering the breathing state was longer than others, you must pay attention. If there is any discomfort in your body, you must interrupt the breathing style in time."

"I understand." Chu Yang asked excitedly, "When do we start practicing sword skills?"

Gyomei Himejima put his hands together and whispered, "I originally wanted you to rest, but you definitely can't sleep in your current state, so let's start now."

"Swordsmen who practice Rock Breathing have always been much stronger than other schools, so ordinary Nichirin swords are not suitable for us."

Speaking of this, Gyomei Himejima paused, "You don't seem to know what a Nichirin sword is yet, right?"

Chu Yang replied, "I have seen it when I was rescued, and I have also seen it in the injured swordsmen in the Butterfly Mansion, but everyone's Nichirin swords seem to be different?"

Gyomei Himejima nodded, "The style of Nichirin swords varies from person to person. When you officially become a swordsman of the Demon Slayer Corps, you will also have your own Nichirin sword."

"The material of the Nichirin sword is different from ordinary swords. It is taken from a mineral called Scarlet Ore. This ore can absorb the energy of the sun, so it can cause effective damage to demons."

"From ancient times to the present, no matter what kind of demon it is, the fear of the sun is consistent."
