Chapter 374
“Are you saying a living person can enter the Netherworld?” Zhu Shanguo asked, confused.
“Yes.”
“That’s incredibly difficult. The Netherworld simply can’t accommodate a mortal body; flesh is too heavy. It would sink straight to the bottom like a rock, unable to see or touch anything. Only by letting your mind-spirit and soul detach from the body can you truly touch and behold that mysterious realm,” Zhu Shanguo explained. “So if you want to go to the Netherworld, there are only two ways. First, discard your physical body and cultivate a ghost-path method. Second, wait until you’re dead.”
“Then what about people who can directly communicate with the Netherworld? I have some matters I want to investigate in depth,” Lin Hui said.
“For that, you’ll need a ghost hag. Abroad, that kind of natural-born psychic is called a spirit medium,” Zhu Shanguo replied.
“You can’t do it?”
“I can! I can do it! This old woman is a ghost hag.” The middle-aged woman standing off to the side finally found her chance to speak.
Though she looked no older than middle-aged, her voice turned harsh and ancient the moment she spoke.
“What does Master want to ask? When inquiring of the Netherworld, one usually asks about friends and family, the truth of a matter, or one’s fortune. It depends on what you want to divine.”
