Darkness, boundless darkness...
When Chu Xuan's consciousness awoke, he was filled with confusion. He couldn't feel his body and didn't know where he was.
After pondering for a long time, he finally remembered that he should be dead.
Chu Xuan laughed at himself. Luckily, although he was dead, he hadn't reached the point of having his soul utterly destroyed, which meant there was still a chance for reincarnation.
As for Shangguan Yu, Chu Xuan wouldn't encounter him on the Yellow Springs Road.
This was because in the "Five Declines of Celestial Beings," one of them is the "Decline of Soul Essence." Shangguan Yu's soul had already turned into a soul essence, and since the soul essence was destroyed, he naturally dissipated completely.
However, a trace of his intangible true spirit might return to the heavens and earth. This sliver of true spirit is the original imprint of life, bearing no memories or emotions.
