Chapter 987 A Journey of a Thousand Miles Begins with a Single Step
The Ghost Emperor Statue, or the Heart Demon Body, is separated from the human body's luck, so the Heart Demon Body is not affected by the majestic human luck and can use its own magic power.
Looking around, there are enemies everywhere, and only the Heart Demon Body can be trusted. It is really a great irony to Wu Yi's efforts in the past few months.
With the help of Shen Congyue's believers, the Heart Demon Body can be transformed into a physical body in a short time, but the Heart Demon Body is a newcomer after all, with a shallow foundation, and what it can do is extremely limited.
Even if it is established, it is impossible to fight against Zhang Tianwen, unless one day, the Heart Demon Body can be enthroned as the righteous god of the Great Ji Dynasty, and with the support of the magnificent humanity, it will be worshipped by thousands of people. That would be a step to heaven.
This righteous path is basically impossible to achieve. It is not that Wu Yi is self-deprecating. If it is really that simple, so many Taoist sects in the upper realm will not sit idly by and watch the rise of the Great Ji Dynasty.
After the establishment of the Daji Dynasty, there were countless restrictions on the extraordinary people. All officials had to break away from them. Both the immortals and the gods had to take the folk route.
The folk route was not that simple. All Taoist temples and Buddhist monks needed to be listed in the genealogy and reported regularly.
The monks' fields and Taoist fields were meager and could not support many people. Not to mention the nine monks and ten Taoists who were promoted in society on weekdays, which belittled their social status.
There were naturally few people willing to be Taoists and monks without fame and profit. This was the case with the Qingfeng Temple that Wu Yi encountered when he first entered the Daji Dynasty. The Taoist Fengqing, who was profound in Taoism, even had difficulty finding a successor.
Of course, there were also some famous grand temples in the countryside. They were popular on weekdays and became a trend for a while. The court wanted to abolish them, but there was still a lot of pressure. For such grand temples, the court imposed heavy taxes. In short, it was to suppress your growth.
The confrontation between the human and immortals was so fierce. After the immortals established their ruling position, they conferred the gods and used Taoist priests to supervise the country. The human was the same. They did their best to attack those who would threaten their ruling position.
It was precisely relying on this series of means that the Daji Dynasty was unstoppable and grew rapidly. Now it has the qualifications to be on par with the million-year-old sects.
It was extremely difficult for the Taoist sect to intervene, which could be said to be impossible to penetrate.
When Wu Yi summoned the inner demon body, he did not think of making the inner demon body the righteous god of the Daji Dynasty, because Wu Yi understood that the Daji Dynasty would not allow the gods who could interfere with the rule to appear.
If the inner demon body was really conferred by the Daji Dynasty, it would be like putting a bridle on his head, and he might not even have a chance to escape in the future.
Therefore, Wu Yi did not take the right path. The upright path in the eyes of others was a dead end in Wu Yi's eyes, and there was no hope at all. On the contrary, those so-called side paths might be able to make a name for themselves.
It is also very easy for the inner demon to take these unorthodox paths. After all, the inner demon is born from ghosts and is good at manipulating people's hearts. It is definitely an evil demon from outer space.
However, the inner demon has the Mingyue Realm as its fundamental place. Unlike those demons that are like rootless duckweed, its purpose is not pure devouring and destruction, but a transformation.
Pure devouring and destroying will definitely lead to backlash and self-destruction. Even if it is happy for a while, it will definitely be killed. This is the case with the evil demon from outer space that Wu Yi met in Tianyu City of the Sushen clan.
After killing this evil demon from outer space, Wu Yi also received the reward of heaven and earth. It can be seen that pure devouring and destruction are not a long-term path. Of course, if you have the strength to suppress the creatures of the entire realm and ignore everything, then just ignore what I said.
If the transformation of the inner demon body follows the trend of world promotion, it may not be unsupported by heaven and earth, enjoy the crown of luck, and walk out its own brilliance in the unorthodox paths.
It is not necessary to achieve the position of the righteous god of the Great Ji Dynasty, but it must not go against the overall situation of the world's promotion! This is the goal, or policy, that Wu Yi set for the inner demon body, which is a guide to action.
The human body carries the fate and cause and effect of the Yiqi Sect, and needs to consider the interests of the Yiqi Sect, but the inner demon body does not need to do so and acts much more freely.
As the saying goes, a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. After the inner demon body can transform, it must think about solving the difficulties in front of it.
What is the difficulty in front of it? It is nothing more than Zhang Tianwen's suppression, or hiding. Zhang Tianwen's existence, even if he did not speak directly, but only hinted, would destroy all the arrangements made by the human body before.
It is unlikely to make Zhang Tianwen withdraw his mind. Since he thinks Wu Yi needs to be beaten, this method will not end.
What Wu Yi can do to ease the situation a little is to re-acquire his old subordinates and consolidate his basic base. The inner demon body planted the seeds of evil thoughts deep in Shen Congyue's sea of consciousness before, which was a beginning.
Through Shen Congyue, countless evil thoughts were spread to all directions. When the inner demon body recovered itself, it also meant that Shen Congyue's root was controlled by Wu Yi.
At this moment, Wu Yi could have made this matter clear. The so-called people are the masters of the gods. His own believers are controlled by others. The gods are like turtles in a jar, and they can't stir up any tricks.
If there was only Shen Congyue, it would not be impossible to do so. It is simple and crude, and it is effective, saving time and effort.
But with the addition of a tiger roaring knife demon, it is not possible to do so. Although the evil thoughts are secretive, they are not without flaws. They can scare Shen Congyue, but they may not be able to scare the tiger roaring knife demon.
Although there is an additional tiger roaring knife demon, the problem is not much troublesome for the inner demon body. The inner demon body is a master of manipulating people's hearts. In terms of means, it is not inferior to the Buddhist way of salvation. Specifically, it is even more difficult to detect.
The people are the masters of the gods, and the gods can be influenced through the believers. With the experience of controlling the Mingyue Realm, the inner demon body is very familiar with this.
At first, Shen Congyue only had a hazy figure in his mind. This figure could not even see the specific face. Then, he felt that this figure was inexplicably tall and majestic, and he had a sense of worship.
The thoughts of the believers returned to Shen Congyue's heart without any error, just like psychological hints. Even if the hints have many flaws, after countless repetitions, it is difficult not to shake people's hearts.
If you still don't understand, you can refer to the saying that three people make a tiger. When a tiger appears in the street, people with a little wisdom will think it is nonsense, but countless people spread it by word of mouth and panic trample on it. Will you go against the current and be "trampled to death" or go with the flow?
The process of "persuading" Shen Congyue was much easier than Wu Yi expected, and it only took one day.
In addition to the fact that Kaixin Demon Body was experienced and had the advantage of controlling Shen Congyue's followers, the other party's lack of divine knowledge and changeable thoughts were also a major shortcoming, which made it so easy for Wu Yi to take advantage of it.
