Reincarnation as Lower Rank Five in Demon Slayer

Chapter 147 The First Revealing of True Nature

The camera then shifts to Li Lei, who, after becoming completely familiar with the shadow wolf in front of him, lets it return to its shadow with satisfaction.

"Pelang's Blood Demon Art is really quite impressive." Li Lei, who had obtained Pelang's Blood Demon Art, happily kept trying out various uses of it.

Watching the Shadow Wolf sink into his shadow, Li Lei was very satisfied. He then began to control the shadow beneath him, enveloping himself and forming a black battle suit resembling the Venom suit from Marvel.

In addition to his existing Blood Demon Thread Technique, Li Lei at this moment resembled Venom even more.

After doing all that, Li Lei immediately controlled his tentacles to take out a mirror from his alternate dimension and started looking at himself.

Looking closely at his strange appearance, Li Lei in the mirror looked like a pitch-black figure with human eyes, like a shadow.

Oh no, he's now looking like the little black character that often appears in Detective Conan.

Li Lei: "..."

Li Lei was speechless. In the mirror, his body was all black, and he had a pair of standard human eyes. He didn't look like a good person at all.

It's not that it resembles Venom, but rather that apart from being entirely black, it has absolutely nothing to do with the villainous hero Venom, which is quite baffling.

However, when he thought about how his black outfit was formed by Pero's Blood Demon Art and was fundamentally different from Marvel's alien symbiote, he realized that it was a different matter altogether.

The black cloak he was wearing was now ignited as soon as it came into contact with sunlight because it was made of blood demon magic.

It is fundamentally different from symbiotes that are not afraid of the sun but are afraid of sound waves.

Thinking about all this, Li Lei felt much more at ease. Next, he continued to study Pei Lang's Blood Demon Art, wanting to master the newly acquired Blood Demon Art as soon as possible.

As Li Lei became more familiar with the Wolf-Slaying Blood Demon Technique, the shadow cloak he wore began to change. It became angular and sharp, resembling a suit of armor—a black wolf-head armor. Behind the armor was a constantly fluttering black shadow cloak.

Using the Blood Demon Art of controlling shadows with Pei Lang, the hastily created shadow armor looked incredibly cool. Li Lei gazed at the shadow armor on his body, quite satisfied.

Although the armor's strength is vastly different from his own Blood Silk Battle Suit, like the difference between a wooden plank and an iron plate, making it rather ordinary as a weapon, it's—so cool!

As the saying goes, a man is a boy until he dies, and being handsome is a lifelong thing.

In high spirits, Li Lei kept fiddling with the armor on his body, quite satisfied with his masterpiece.

Just then, Li Lei suddenly felt that the armor seemed to be missing something.

Oh, right! Weapons. The special weapons for the armor haven't been manufactured yet.

As a suit of armor, it's impossible to function without weapons. Armor without weapons isn't complete armor, and it loses half its coolness.

With that thought in mind, Li Lei mustered his courage and thrust his hand into the shadow beneath him, his face serious. At that moment, he felt incredibly cool.

"Come forth, my kingly power!"

Suddenly, the earth shook violently, the sea surged, and dark clouds that blotted out the sun plunged the world into darkness. Countless white lightning bolts crisscrossed the sky, as if it were the end of the world.

Clad in black armor and wielding a 5-meter-long black greatsword, Li Lei unleashed the overwhelming pressure of a peerless powerhouse amidst the backdrop of countless thunderbolts in the sky above the island nation.

Looking at the thousands of Japanese soldiers displaying their ugly behavior at his feet, Li Lei smiled contemptuously and raised his hand to unleash a slash that could travel ten thousand miles.

The island nation was instantly destroyed, and countless Japanese soldiers were reduced to ashes in the aftermath of the attack.

"Haha, I'm so amazing."

In the alternate dimension where walls were made of flesh and blood, Li Lei fantasized about his unparalleled divine power in slaughtering beasts, and laughed incessantly.

Everything that just happened, except for the five-meter-long black greatsword formed by the shadow in his hand, was real; everything else was just Li Lei's own delusional fantasy.

There was no cataclysmic event, no apocalypse, and no absolute power that could dominate an entire world.

Fortunately, no one was around when Li Lei was lost in his fantasies, otherwise he would definitely have been mistaken for a madman.
