The passage upwards was easy to find, located on the other side of the floor, but the iron gate had already been locked shut.
Zhu Wenwu inspected the gate lock and said:
"The material of the gate is quite strong; breaking it by force would take some effort... Any of you know how to pick a lock?"
No one answered; evidently, none of the people present had this skill.
Su Changxing thought for a moment and said, "No need, I should be able to open it."
Evil Spirits can partially phantomize their bodies, so opening a door wouldn't be difficult. Besides, ghost-type creatures can pass through ordinary barriers.
The Fallen Evil Pendant has a special space that can accommodate ghost-type creatures. It's a space that's neither too big nor too small, where aside from the ones Su Changxing controlled, an Evil Spirit already existed.
