"Fellow Daoist Shen, what are you doing?" The Bull Demon King looked surprised.
"You said that by using this person, we can find a way to escape from the underworld. Are you serious?" Shen Luo waved his sleeves, released Qing Lu, and said.
After hearing this, Niu Mowang and Nie Caizhu's eyes lit up and they all looked at Qing Lu.
"I'm not completely sure either. This Wu Kun and I are ghost messengers of the same level. I have had some interactions with him and know him very well. I also know a secret of his. If I can make good use of it, perhaps I can find an opportunity to leave the underworld." Qing Lu shrank his head when he was stared at by several people and pointed at the man in gray and said.
"What's the secret? Tell me about it." Shen Luo said.
"This matter starts with the true form of Wu Kun. He is no ordinary ghost, but a member of the extremely rare ghost clan in the underworld. The ghost clan is born with an ability that can split the body and soul into two, forming two individuals that are independent of each other yet closely connected." Qing Lu explained.
"A magical power similar to that of a clone?" Shen Luo raised his eyebrows.
"The splitting ability of the Ghost-Fearing Clan is much more sophisticated than ordinary clones. Not only can it split into two individuals, but it can also use the opportunity of the split to transfer negative emotions such as greed, frivolity, and madness to the clone, leaving the main body with pure thoughts. This is extremely beneficial for cultivation." Qing Lu continued.
"There is such a talented race!" Shen Luo felt his eyes opened.
Niu Mowang and Nie Caizhu were also surprised.
"So, this Wu Kun is the split avatar? Who is his original body?" asked the Bull Demon King.
"Wu Kun's other body is named Wu Yu. His cultivation has reached the late stage of True Immortal and is not far from the Taiyi Realm. He holds a high position in the underworld. As far as I know, he is in charge of monitoring the Six Paths of Reincarnation Disk." Qing Lu continued.
"Even so, what can we do? Are we going to use this Wu Kun to threaten that Wu Yu?" Nie Caizhu shook her head disapprovingly.
"The two split bodies of the Ghost-Terror Clan have another characteristic, that is, no matter how far apart they are, their souls can influence each other. We can use this." Qing Lu smiled sinisterly.
"You mean, you want us to use some means to control Wu Kun, use the connection between the main body and the clone of the Ghost Clan, and then influence Wu Yu to let him open the Six Paths of Reincarnation Disk?" Shen Luo was quick-witted and immediately understood Qing Lu's plan.
"There is no need to open the Six Paths of Reincarnation Disk. As long as we can loosen the seal of the disk a little, we will have a chance to leave." Qing Lu said.
“I’m afraid that won’t work. The Six Paths of Reincarnation Disk is sealed, and the interface force of the underworld has been completely solidified. If the seal is just loosened a little, even if we work together, we won’t be able to tear through the void and escape.” The Bull Demon King shook his head. He had just tried to tear through the void to leave the underworld, and he knew best how tenacious the interface force here was.
"What you don't know, Great Sage Pingtian, is that the River Styx is an important spatial channel connecting the underworld to the human world. One of its tributaries goes directly to the vicinity of Chang'an City. There is a very strange place there that has an unusual resonance with the River Styx. The two attract each other, and over the years, a channel has been formed between the two, connecting the two worlds. This channel was not opened up by the Six Paths of Reincarnation Disk. Although Jiu Ming closed the Six Paths of Reincarnation Disk, the channel must not have been greatly affected. As long as we can loosen the seal of the Six Paths of Reincarnation Disk a little, we should be able to return to the human world." Qing Lu said.
