And the reason why the Pillars of the Demon Slayer Corps were not afraid of this was because their mission itself was full of danger, if they did not master a method that could make them stronger, they would only die faster.
In this way, activating the Mark was the choice that could allow them to live a little longer, and it was also the choice that could more likely kill the Upper Moons and Muzan Kibutsuji.
Secondly, mastering the activation method and activating the Mark were two different concepts, mastering the activation method meant that they could try to activate it at the critical moment of life and death, if the activation was successful, then they might be able to live.
However, after hearing the news that they would not live past 25 years old, Ryuji immediately inquired about his lifespan from the system, and after inquiring that he still had 78 years of lifespan, Ryuji was not so worried.
At least this curse would not affect him, but Ryuji was still curious and asked Gyomei Himejima: "Then Himejima-aniki, how old are you this year?"
Ryuji's call of "aniki" was naturally to show respect for Gyomei Himejima, and Gyomei Himejima's giant physique was also suitable for the title of aniki, at the same time, Ryuji also knew from Shinobu Kocho that Gyomei Himejima was the oldest in the Demon Slayer Corps.
"Twenty-seven!" Gyomei Himejima replied indifferently.
Hearing these words, Ryuji was somewhat surprised, wasn't it said that they would not live past 25 years old? Now he had lived to 27, hadn't he?
Seeming to know that Ryuji was somewhat puzzled, Gyomei Himejima then said again: "There are exceptions to everything, but this does not mean that I can live a long life, perhaps if I activate the Mark again next time, I will die, it's hard to say."
Ryuji also understood at once, this situation varied from person to person, it was possible that most of the swordsmen who had activated the Mark before had died at the age of 25.
Ryuji felt that the reason why Gyomei Himejima could live past 25 years old might be related to his physique, after all, Gyomei Himejima's giant, burly, and strong physique was not something that ordinary people could have.
"Could it be because of the body's strength? Maybe if you train the body to be strong enough, perhaps activating the Mark will not damage the lifespan." Ryuji then said his speculation.
"This also has some truth, I have also pondered the reasons for this before. It's just that it is difficult for someone to train their body to my level!" Gyomei Himejima also expressed his agreement with this.
And the conversation between Ryuji and Gyomei Himejima was actually something that others could not interject in, because the others had not activated the Mark, and did not know the specific conditions for how to activate the Mark, the only thing they could do was to quietly receive the useful information in Ryuji and Gyomei Himejima's words.
"Let's stop talking about the Mark for now! Because there are too few records about the Mark, perhaps the Mark has not been perfected yet, that's why it causes people to shorten their lifespan."
"I think what Ryuji and Himejima said is very reasonable, before you activate the Mark, you can start by strengthening your body first."
Kagaya Ubuyashiki then spoke at this time to temporarily pull the topic back.
Hearing these words, Ryuji and Gyomei Himejima no longer talked about it.
"Ryuji, I still have something to ask you, the news also said that you have mastered a magical healing technique, and you also used this magical healing technique to reattach the severed limbs of Shinobu, Rengoku, and Uzui, can you talk about this healing technique?" Kagaya Ubuyashiki then continued to ask Ryuji.
