10,000 years is too long, I have to make the best use of all the time I have!
Song Shuhang tried to establish contact with the Inner World. As long as he could return to it, he would be able to use Senior White Two's world of the black lotus as a springboard, and then smuggle himself into the Netherworld Realm.
As long as he was able to get to the Netherworld Realm, there were many channels that he could use to return to the main world.
Song Shuhang was quickly able to establish contact with his Inner World.
However... he wasn't able to enter it.
He could sense it, and his consciousness could even enter it, but there was a barrier between him and the Inner World, one that blocked the entry and exit of all kinds of things.
He couldn't enter, nor could he take anything out of it.
Song Shuhang smiled bitterly, and said, "It's over. We're going to have to stay here for 10,000 years."
