In this chapter, we learn that the primordial spirit is not restored after it has been consumed. In fact, the only thing that can restore the spirit is to help someone else. In this case, it's the ghost of the dead father. The ghost tells us that he will try his best to help li zhu get out of the underworld. He says that he's heard that hell river is dangerous, but he doesn't want to worry about him if he goes alone. He's just not cruel enough, the ghost says. The two of them need to figure out what's really going on and figure out a way to help the ghost. They need to help him realize that the three realms are falling apart and that there's only one person that he can never overpower.
