Chapter 178 The God Takes Shape, Gui Yi Offers a Plan

The appearance of the sixteen gods gradually became clear. Among them, the appearance of the twelve zodiac guardian gods looked normal, but the four gods, namely Gen, Xun, Qian, and Kun, each had some characteristics of the other four gods, which was a four-in-one.

The current sixteen gods are all evolved from Yin Qi, so to a certain extent they can be said to be ghosts. Since they are ghosts, they gather and disperse like smoke, so the appearance is not so important.

As a cultivator, Wu Yi is more concerned about the essence. As long as the appearance does not affect the performance of strength, it is fine.

Each of the sixteen gods is three feet tall, with a clear appearance and looks majestic, but the dull body reveals that their strength is actually very low. The spiritual consciousness senses that the breath is just barely spiritual, which is equivalent to the state of the cultivator's breath, which is a little better than the evil ghost.

This does not mean that Wu Yi is unable to visualize the sixteen gods equivalent to the foundation-building level, but Wu Yi's practice of "Taiyi Divine Numbers" is not good enough, and the way of calculation and deduction is not enough to visualize more powerful gods.

If he was willing, Wu Yi could just smash the Yinsha Essence he got from Li Bi into the bodies of the sixteen gods, and it would not be impossible to forcibly raise the strength of several gods to the foundation-building level.

However, the sixteen gods pushed up in that way are no different from ghosts and monsters. They are purely used for fighting and have no other use. They can no longer be said to be the external manifestation of the Taoism of "Taiyi Shenshu".

The current sixteen gods are just embryos, and Wu Yi needs to use the art of calculation to perfect them.

The sixteen gods visualized by Wu Yi naturally feel very close to Wu Yi, and they are circling around Wu Yi. They are extremely simple-minded, and their intelligence is similar to that of human children of several months old, innocent and naive.

After they were tired of playing, they flew to a place with relatively strong Yin Qi and slowly devoured it. Wu Yi threw out a Yin Sha essence the size of a fingernail and merged it into this place. After swallowing the Yin Sha essence, the weak sixteen gods seemed to be drunk, staggering to the ground, and their bodies slowly shrank, and could be held in one hand. They became much more solid, curled up together, and began a slow digestion process.

After Wu Yi dealt with the sixteen gods, he isolated them from many ghosts. The strength of the sixteen gods was still very low. If those stupid ghosts swallowed the sixteen gods that Wu Yi had visualized with great difficulty, Wu Yi's painstaking efforts would be in vain. How could he let such a thing happen?

At this time, the stone tablet world, the balance that Wu Yi had carefully set up at the beginning, had collapsed with the appearance of a large number of evil ghosts such as ghosts and monsters, and existed in name only. The strength of the ghost pet was no longer able to suppress these ghosts, and was squeezed to the other side of the Yin Sha Lake and avoided them far away, and did not dare to take the opportunity to devour the native ghosts as before.

If the number of these ghosts had not reached the upper limit of the stone tablet world, and there were still stocks to fight for, Wu Yi had no doubt that the ghosts would fight for it, just like when he first visualized the stone tablet world.

When Wu Yi first visualized the stone tablet world, his strength was low, and there was very little Yin Qi in the stone tablet world, while there were slightly more ghosts. The extra ghosts had no Yin Qi to absorb, which was not only a problem of stagnating cultivation, but also a problem of not being able to maintain their Yin bodies. Under such circumstances, fighting was inevitable.

In fact, whether it was ghosts or cultivators, once the resources were insufficient, fighting was inevitable. The resources of heaven and earth have their own fixed number, but the human heart is infinite. This is the root cause of the struggle between heaven and man.

In order to solve this problem, Wu Yi first occupied the top of Lingxiu Peak and used the blood food on it to temporarily relieve it. Finally, he found a way to make the evil ghosts the bad guys, swallowed the extra ghosts, and used this to provoke the fight between the two sides, promoting the improvement of the ghosts' fighting experience.

This method can be used at that time, but not now. Wu Yi frowned and glanced at the many ghosts below with a calm look, thinking about how to solve the problem of ghost growth.

If Wu Yi practiced the Dao alone, he would not have this worry, but he was destined to not spend all his time to take care of the number of ghosts in the stone tablet world. Once the ghosts started fighting when he was negligent, Wu Yi's army of ghosts would be destroyed.

Wu Yi's strength is strong, but two fists can't beat four hands. The advantage in numbers can sometimes make up for the gap in cultivation, especially the organized advantage in numbers can even reverse the attack, the most typical of which is the formation.

Just like what Wu Yi did before when he crossed the monster forest outside the Yiqi Gate, hundreds of ghosts set off a small monster tide, which attracted several real people to suppress the beast tide. In short, the ghost army is one of Wu Yi's most important means at present, and he has no intention of giving up.

I need to find someone in charge to manage the ghosts in the stone tablet world on my behalf. Wu Yi thought for a long time and made this decision. As for the person, no, the ghost, Wu Yi also had some arrangements in mind.

Wu Yi looked at the evil ghost Gui Yi, that is, the ghost that Wu Yi named after him because of his firm determination. The "biased" Wu Yi even passed his own six dusts to Gui Yi, and used a lot of resources on him.

Perhaps because his gaze stayed for a long time, Gui Yi sensed Wu Yi's arrival, prostrated himself on the ground, and bowed to the sky from a distance, extremely respectful.

Since he was discovered, Wu Yi didn't need to hide in his own little world. His mind fell to Gui Yi's side, but it blocked the sight of other ghosts. Only Gui Yi could see it.

Seeing Wu Yi's true body, but the ghosts around him seemed not to see it. The surprised Gui Yi soon realized Wu Yi's purpose and did not make a sound. He also got up early to avoid attracting attention.

Wu Yi nodded slightly. Just as he thought at the beginning, Gui Yi's strength might not be very high, but his intelligence was not bad at all. He was much higher than other ghosts. He was familiar with some human relationships, but these were not used at all in the world of ghosts. The strong had everything, and life and death were all up to their will.

There was no need to beat around the bush with Gui Yi. If he did, Gui Yi might not understand. Wu Yi got straight to the point and conveyed his intention to Gui Yi with his spiritual consciousness.

To Wu Yi's surprise, Gui Yi actually sent back a refusal, but after Wu Yi checked carefully, he found that Gui Yi did not want to do it, but wanted Wu Yi to give him some real power, not just verbal support.

Gui Yi revealed several times that the strength of the other evil ghosts was stronger than his, hoping that Wu Yi could tell the other evil ghosts to obey his orders, and also hoped that Wu Yi would give him the control of the Yinsha Lake to punish those ghosts who did not obey his orders.

Wu Yi laughed in his heart. Although Gui Yi's words and thoughts seemed very naive, he had already realized the truth that those who wanted to be in power must manage both personnel and finances in this small stone tablet world. It can be said that he was not uncivilized. Given time, Gui Yi would manage this group of ghosts to become his subordinates and become the king of ghosts, and Wu Yi would not be curious.

As for the worry that Gui Yi would get out of his control, Wu Yi did not have it, but he quickly put it behind his mind. He used Gui Yi to describe the scene of the stone tablet world after his governance for him, which was just the form of establishing a tribal alliance to restrain the behavior of each ghost.

This idea can indeed solve Wu Yi's urgent needs. When Gui Yi described the beautiful picture of the tribal alliance for Wu Yi, Wu Yi had already decided to adopt its method. The previous decentralized "clan" organizational form is no longer suitable for the changes in the situation, but these ghosts are not qualified to establish a more advanced national form. The tribal alliance is the best form.

A half-step ahead is a genius, and a step ahead is a fool. Wu Yi will not show off his insight from the big world. Leaving the foundation and not thinking will only backfire.

According to the idea proposed by Gui Yi, Wu Yi summoned several other evil ghosts and arranged this method. He endorsed Gui Yi with his own prestige. As for how it will be implemented in the end, it depends on Gui Yi's own means.

After dealing with the ghosts in the stele world, Wu Yi seemed to have removed a big stone from his heart. He felt much more comfortable. His mind left the stele world and returned to his body.

Now, he has to learn the methods of the Eight Trigrams and Nine Palaces, the Five Elements and Six Periods to perfect the way of calculation.

I remember when Sanren wrote about Gui Yi, a reader asked Sanren whether he had raised the status of this ghost too high. That reader, do you still think so now?
