Men have the Dao of Yang, ghosts have the Ghost Path of Yin.
In the Banner, brother Chu Xun's cultivation was stuck in the late stage of the Golden Core. Perhaps entering the Nether Spring could mark the beginning of a brilliant ghostly life where the sky is the limit, and the ocean's expanse is theirs to explore.
If this brother fails to make a name for himself below, Chen Dengming would only stick to his original plan, helping him find the two souls of the Mini Array Spirit and clues regarding Xu Wei.
However, if this brother thrives and even ascends to become a Ghost King, Chen Dengming would consult with him and attempt to support his struggle for supremacy in the Ghost Path beneath the Nether Spring, seizing the opportunity to become the Infernal Ghost Monarch.
Struggling for supremacy is, after all, a necessary path for Ghost Cultivators seeking strength, at least those in the Nether Spring.
