Chapter 1188: Chapter 1185: The Agreement Chapter 1188: Chapter 1185: The Agreement “Stay here? You want to use the power of the Ginkgo Divine Tree to resolve the Heart Prohibition that the Nine-Headed Insect implanted in your body?” The Mirage Demon looked puzzled but quickly understood.

“Exactly. Now that I have rebelled against the Nine-Headed Insect, I naturally want to take advantage of its seclusion to quickly remove the prohibition inside my body and then flee far away. The Qiankun Xuanjin Array surrounding this area is an array that it painstakingly refined. It has left a Divine Sense Mark within it, and if it learns that the prohibition has been broken, it might exit seclusion early and come after us. By then, we would have nowhere to bury our dead bodies, which is why I just stopped this Human companion from breaking the prohibition,” Bashe said hurriedly.

“So that's the case,” the Mirage Demon nodded slowly.

“No, I have already broken through the Qiankun Xuanjin Array twice just now. If the Nine-Headed Insect really left a Divine Sense Mark within the array, it would have known by now,” Shen Luo suddenly said.

“When Daoist friend broke through the Great Formation from outside earlier, I cast spells to suppress the prohibitions within the Formation, preventing the circumstances of the prohibition being broken from being transmitted. As for the second time you just broke the yellow clouds, that was merely a divine ability derived from the Qiankun Xuanjin Array, and breaking it does not matter. Suppressing the Formation's prohibitions is extremely taxing, and doing it once is already my limit. If Daoist friend breaks through a second time, the Nine-Headed Insect will definitely be alerted,” Bashe explained with a chuckle.

Upon hearing these words, Shen Luo's gaze flickered, unsure whether to believe the other party or not.

“I only need a bit of time to resolve the prohibition in my body with the help of the Ginkgo Divine Tree. It should take about a quarter of an hour to finish. I request the two Daoist friends to wait for me a moment,” Bashe said as he gave a bow to Shen Luo and the Mirage Demon, pleading in a soft voice and looking quite pitiful.

“Mirage Demon, what do you think of Bashe's proposal?” Shen Luo asked indifferently, directly ignoring Bashe's plea and communicating with the Mirage Demon through a psychic transmission.

“From what I know, most of what Bashe said is true. If Daoist friend breaks the Formation a second time, it might indeed attract the Nine-Headed Insect,” the Mirage Demon transmitted back.

“Let it come. The Nine-Headed Insect is injured. Once we leave this place and split up immediately, it may not catch us. What's more, even if we wait here for Bashe to use the power of the Divine Tree to dissolve the prohibition in his body, we will still have to break the Qiankun Xuanjin Array to leave, which will attract the Nine-Headed Insect just the same,” Shen Luo replied, narrowing his eyes.

“This…” The Mirage Demon hadn't considered this point and was rendered speechless.

“Daoist friend, are you worried that after I dissolve the prohibition, we will still need to break the surrounding Great Formation, thus attracting the Nine-Headed Insect? Rest assured, once I remove the prohibition inside my body, my strength will significantly increase. Then I can suppress the Qiankun Xuanjin Array a second time without the Nine-Headed Insect noticing,” Bashe said with a tight-lipped smile, seemingly guessing what Shen Luo and the Demon were discussing.

“Your Excellency makes a fair point. However, how am I to know that you're not deliberately stalling for time, waiting for reinforcements to arrive and capture us both at once? Mirage Demon, my opinion is to leave now. What do you say?” Shen Luo said with an indifferent expression, showing no sign of emotional fluctuation.

Upon hearing these words, a flash of malice appeared in Bashe's eyes, but he didn't immediately react and instead looked towards the Mirage Demon.

Being stared at by both of them, the Mirage Demon thought for a moment and then said, “Daoist friend Bashe, Daoist Shen's words may be blunt, but they aren't without reason. However, Daoist Shen's suggestion is also somewhat risky. How about this compromise: we will wait here for a moment, but Daoist friend Bashe, you must take a Heart Demon Oath to guarantee that everything you just said is the truth. Moreover, you should offer two valuable gifts to me and Daoist Shen as compensation, since we are bearing a significant risk by staying here to wait for you.”

“No problem, I'm willing to take the Heart Demon Oath. As for compensation, that is only natural. We stand together as friends, and a greeting gift is certainly indispensable,” Bashe said without hesitation, taking out two Storage Magical Tools and tossing one each to Shen Luo and the Mirage Demon.

Shen Luo caught the Storage Magical Tool, gave Bashe a glance, and his Divine Sense entered the Tool. A look of surprise flashed across his face.

The Storage Magical Tool contained many precious Spiritual Materials and Spirit Grasses, all seemingly special products of Yunmeng Marsh, and there were also a large number of Immortal Jades, amounting to as many as ten thousand, which was indeed a generous gift.

The Mirage Demon also probed the Storage Magical Tool with his Divine Sense and appeared pleased, clearly finding ample items inside.

“I, with a Heart Demon Oath, declare that all I have spoken earlier is the absolute truth. Should there be a half-word of falsehood, I am willing to have my soul scattered and die without a place for my remains,” Bashe said solemnly, making an oath with a single hand raised.

Shen Luo, seeing Bashe take such a venomous oath, also fell silent. After pondering for a moment, he spoke, “Since the Mirage Demon Elder has made such a request, I naturally should show some courtesy. Let it be so.”

“Thank you, Daoist friend, for your understanding. I shall complete the task as soon as possible,” Bashe replied joyfully, turning to fly into the Ginkgo Divine Tree. Her body lit up with dazzling blue electro-light and directly merged with the interior of the Ginkgo Divine Tree, vanishing from sight.

Shen Luo frowned and hurriedly operated his Divine Sense to penetrate the Ginkgo Divine Tree, keeping a close watch on Bashe.

“No need to worry. Bashe has used a Secret Method to attach her body inside the Ginkgo Divine Tree, borrowing the millenniold wooden spirit power of this Divine Tree to dissolve the prohibition that Nine-Headed Insect planted in her body. She will not escape,” said the Mirage Demon.

Shen Luo's Divine Sense did indeed sense Bashe hiding inside the Ginkgo Divine Tree and not taking the opportunity to leave. He sighed in relief, flew up to the Divine Tree, and sat down in a spot.

At this moment, the Ginkgo Divine Tree was emitting streaks of golden light, unleashing astonishing spiritual power fluctuations.

He raised his eyebrows; the amazing spiritual power fluctuations were the wooden spirit force accumulated over countless years by the Ginkgo Divine Tree. Bashe was actually able to harness this power for her own use, a formidable feat indeed.

The Mirage Demon also found a place to sit and started to cultivate, with blue light from her body flickering bright and dim.

Shen Luo, however, did not cultivate. He closed his eyes and silently operated the Peeping Spirit Secret Technique, using the Magnetic Heart Wood Seeds to investigate the situation below.

Since the Mirage Demon came up here, the white mist in the space below gradually dissipated. The members of the He Mountain Sect and Lian Shan, Gui Cang finally saw their surroundings clearly and resumed their intense battle.

Without Bashe's assistance, Lian Shan and Gui Cang were no match for the members of the He Mountain Sect, especially after the Great Elder took action. Within a few exchanges, the two demons were grievously injured and captured.

“Bind their demon power, but do not kill them just yet, they might be useful later on,” the Great Elder commanded.

“Yes.” The one who responded was the cunning gray-haired old man, who had managed to free himself from the Blue Silk Prohibition at some point.

He took out a set of ghostly blue needles, over a hundred of them. After chanting spells, he pointed his finger, and all the ghostly blue needles shot out, piercing Lian Shan and Gui Cang's bodies all over.

The two demons groaned softly, trembling as they fell to the ground. The demon power within their bodies was completely bound, and not a trace could be stirred.

“Elder Zhuo's Ghostly Blue Needle has become even more exquisite. I'm impressed,” Poison Lady said, her eyes flashing with admiration.

“It's just a little skill, nothing compared to your Thousand Poisons Technique, Poison Lady,” the gray-haired old man said with a laugh.

The Proud Youth heard the exchange and snorted. He flew towards the Great Elder and said, “I'm not sure if Tian Tiesheng didn't dare to come in, or if something else happened, but now there's no sign of him. The passageway has already closed. What should we do next?”
