Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba: The Second Sun after the Nation

I was born into a poor family and had the same opportunity to change my fate as normal people. However, compared to everything in your world, my opportunity to change my fate was more direct and cruel.

"Oh my god! He is actually a natural spiritual root, but it is a pity that he is of the earth element. If he were to be of any other color, this child would definitely achieve great things in the future!"

"It's a pity, it's a pity..."

"How ridiculous. So what if he has natural spiritual roots? I guess there won't be many peak masters willing to accept him as a disciple."

"Do you want this boy?"

"He is not suitable for us Danfeng."

"It's not very suitable for us at Qifeng."

"Don't look at me, how can the earth spirit root control the wild?"

"This child is too young to practice swordplay with me, so I won't accept him as the Sect Master."

"I have read so many picture books about the world of immortal cultivation, but I have never seen any protagonist with earth-type spiritual roots, let alone a powerful person with such spiritual roots, so he is destined to be a supporting role who gets slapped in the face."

"Go away! You guys, what a bunch of you, you are just making excuses, you are already a genius, why are you still trying to figure out the difference between spiritual roots? You old guys keep saying that you are practicing the ruthless way, saying that love is boundless and only ruthlessness can bring love, etc., it's so high-sounding, but I think sooner or later, you will all perish under the calamity of self-examination because of your emotions that you haven't dealt with cleanly."

"Zhen Yuanwan, you are so arrogant. Who do you think you are? You just got your Zhen Peak back and you dare to curse us. It seems that we were too lenient with you in the past."

"Really? How could that be? Why can't I see it? Don't say anything. Old man, if you keep doing this, you will have to spit out all the resources you've taken. Don't think I don't know how much you've taken. There's a saying that goes, 'The Yangtze River's back waves push the front waves, and the front waves are beaten to death on the beach.'"

"you you……"

"Hey, little guy, do you want to come with me? Don't worry, from now on, no one except me will make any ridicule at you. I promise that I will teach you better than any genius."

I don’t like wearing white clothes because I know my parents don’t like wearing them. Every time I wear them, my parents will be sad for several days. Also, white is easy to get dirty. I like dealing with dirt and I am laughed at by those kids every day. But at that moment, I finally changed my mind about white. Maybe white is not a derogatory word?

The master is a girl who looks like a banished immortal. The color white suits her very well. She is also very powerful, with a superb array formation skill, which always makes people lose their temper. According to her, one time she accidentally merged her spiritual root with a part of the array formation, and created a body of water that even cultivators could not cross. It was like the legendary Tianhe Ruoshui, where not even a feather could float. I once experienced the feeling of drowning, and I really don’t want to experience it again. However, the opposite happened. The master likes to train me this way.

While teaching me how to recognize all the formations she had set up, she also required me to take a magic sword and try to cut through the strongest formation she had set up. She said that if I could cut through the water, then cutting through anything would be easy.

When I was a child, I didn't quite understand why my master insisted that I learn both formation and sword skills together. It was not until later when I saw her natal spirit sword inserted into the ground every time she used formations that I suddenly realized what she was doing.

I began to ask her why she couldn't teach me the ability to arrange the spirit roots into the formation like her, but she always walked away in silence, saying that the secret must not be revealed, lest the apprentice starve to death. At the same time, in a place she thought I couldn't see, she looked at the sky with a lost look, tears rolling down her eyes from time to time.

I once thought that even if she didn't tell me, I would be able to crack the secret of the formation, as long as I did it a few more times. After all, I was extremely confident in my talent before. But since that day, even though I simulated your formation countless times, no one still sent me back to bed.

How can a small sect protect the next talented child? I have never thought about this question, because when I was a child, my understanding was very small, so small that I thought this ruined sect was worth living in for the rest of my life.

Before everything happened, I started to gain experience outside and made friends with all kinds of people, but most of them were independent cultivators. It's not that I felt that being among independent cultivators would make me stand out from the crowd, but I found that what my master said angrily against several peak masters was correct. After all, they could discriminate against me when they had no choice, not to mention what those disciples from large sects who thought they were the best would think.

I originally thought that I could hide from everyone and practice quietly by myself unless it was necessary. Although it is undeniable that I missed the liveliness of my master, I also knew that calming down was a necessary step in growth.

Until that day, I got a secret story...

Master's spiritual root had been deliberately damaged by someone, and the original Tianshui spiritual root was split into two halves. Although Master fought desperately to take back her spiritual root from the other party, it was broken and could not be put back into the body. After hearing the sad news that their daughter had become like this, Master's parents were so angry that they fainted. It was Master at that time who took her own half of the spiritual root, the spiritual sword that she had finally retrieved during her training, and a few rare treasures, and threw them all into the furnace, forging a unique spiritual sword in the world, a spiritual sword with a spiritual root.

Since then, she could no longer directly inject her abilities into the formation, even if the formation was guided by her natal sword.

Master's parents used to love their daughter very much, but they never stopped Master from moving forward, until that day when Master went out for a trip, and when she came back she saw that her parents had been killed by the guy who had taken away their spiritual roots, and no one in the sect where Master belonged came to help or set up a formation to protect the sect.

This is the most heartbreaking thing, right? I don't know what Master went through in that battle, I only know that Master's spiritual roots were completely healed, and the formation supported by the two water spiritual roots became what I was always familiar with.

According to legend, no living creatures can exist or live at the bottom of Ruoshui River. It is known as the most dangerous place of death in the world of immortal cultivation. It was the Queen Mother who drew a long river to separate the friends at that time. No one was allowed to pass through it because the river contained the tears of a man and a god. Now, the river appeared beside Master. Does it prove that there is one more tear in Ruoshui River?
