The Dark Anomaly : Moon Breathing
Where every Breathing technique was created for protect human and humanity , there is have one breathing style that is only for its destruction . Yes I’m taking about moon breathing .
This breathing style mainly used by Kokushibo , the Upper Rank one demon. He is the twin brother of legendary Sun breathing technique user Yoriichi Tsugikuni. A long time ago , when kokushibo was a human demon slayer , he was attempt to learn the legendary sun breathing technique from his brother but I told you previously Performing sun breathing technique need to endure immense amount of physical stress and physical power but unfortunately Kokushibo has not the ability to perform sun breathing technique.

For this reason he was jealous of brother because yoriichi has the god like talent to perform sun breathing technique. After that kokushibo created a his own breathing style which is suitable for his body type that’s called Moon breathing. This technique is dark mirror of his brothers sun breathing Technique.

Upon abandoning humanity and jealousy for his own brother to defeat him , he was becoming a demon by muzan kibutsuji’s ( the demon king) manipulation. After becoming a demon kokushibo combines his moon breathing technique with his blood demon art. His sword was build from his own flesh and it emits moon shaped blade with every swing.
Conclusion :
In Demon slayer demons are gifted immense amount of strength , god like regeneration power and speed also by consuming muzan’s blood. They are not trained , their strength is shortcut way by abandoning their humanity. But the demon slayers are much push their limits and their mortal bodies to stand on same battlefield . They are destroying their lungs , breaking their bones for the save humanity.
