Im not sure I agree with you chop or more likely the person who told you this is what to do.
If you have the IF skills to keep descending and slow down and still keep it all upright then you also have the skills to climb and get away from the terrain and then radio a ATC falcility and get some help from them to get you safely back on the ground.
To keep descending and slowing down in IIMC is a recipe for disaster
