"Stay here? Do you want to borrow the power of this sacred ginkgo tree to dissolve the mind-trapping restriction that the Nine-headed Insect has planted in your body?" The Mirage Demon also looked puzzled, but immediately understood.
"Yes, now that I have rebelled against the Nine-Headed Insect, I naturally have to take advantage of its retreat to quickly dissolve the restrictions in its body and then fly away. The Qiankun Xuanjin formation around here is a magic formation that it painstakingly refined. He left his mental mark in it. If it knew that the restriction has been broken, it might come out of retreat in advance. By then, we will all die without a burial place, so I just stopped this human Taoist from breaking the restriction." Bashe said quickly.
"So that's how it is." The mirage monster nodded slowly.
"No, I have already broken through this Qiankun Xuanjin formation twice. If the Nine-headed Insect really had a mental imprint left in this formation, he would have known it long ago." Shen Luo suddenly said.
"When fellow Daoist broke the formation from the outside earlier, I cast a spell to suppress the restrictions within the formation and prevented the situation of the restriction being broken from being transmitted. As for the yellow cloud that you just broke for the second time, it was just a magical power derived from the Qiankun Xuanjin formation. It has nothing to do with breaking it. It is very difficult to suppress the restrictions of the formation, and once is already my limit. If fellow Daoist breaks the restriction for a second time, the Nine-headed Insect will certainly know." Bashe said with a smile.
When Shen Luo heard these words, his eyes flickered, and he didn't know whether to believe what the other party said.
"It won't take me much time to break the restrictions in my body with the help of the sacred ginkgo tree. It will be done in about a quarter of an hour. Please wait for me for a moment, fellow Taoists." The Bashen bowed to Shen Luo and the Mirage Monster, and pleaded in a gentle voice, looking quite pitiful.
"Mirage Demon, what do you think of the Bashen's proposal?" Shen Luo looked indifferent. He ignored the Bashen's pleading and communicated with the Mirage Demon through voice transmission.
"As far as I know, what the Basher said is mostly true. If you break the formation a second time, I'm afraid it will really attract the Nine-Headed Insect." The Mirage Demon replied in a voice transmission.
"Let it be attracted. The Nine-headed Insect has injuries. We should split up once we leave this place. It may not be able to catch us. What's more, even if we wait here for the Ba Snake to use the power of the sacred tree to dissolve the restrictions in its body, we still have to break through the Qiankun Xuanjin formation before we can leave, which will still attract the Nine-headed Insect." Shen Luo replied with narrowed eyes.
“This…” The Mirage Demon hadn’t expected this and was speechless.
"Fellow Daoist, are you worried that after I dissolve the restriction, I will still have to break the surrounding formation and attract the Nine-headed Insect? You can rest assured about this matter. As long as I dissolve the restriction in my body, my strength will increase a lot. Then I will be able to suppress the Qiankun Xuanban formation for the second time and the Nine-headed Insect will not notice it." Bashe seemed to guess what Shen Luo and the others were talking about, and said with a smile.
"Your Excellency's words make sense, but how do I know that you are not deliberately delaying time so that reinforcements can arrive and capture both of us in one fell swoop? Mirage Demon, my opinion is that we should leave now. What do you think?" Shen Luo said indifferently, without a trace of emotion on his face.
When Bashe heard this, a flash of hostility appeared in his eyes, but he did not attack immediately and also looked at the mirage monster.
The Mirage Demon was stared at by the two men, and after a slight turn of his eyes, he said, "Fellow Daoist Bashe, although Fellow Daoist Shen's words are a bit blunt, they may not be without reason. However, Fellow Daoist Shen's proposal is also a bit risky. How about this, the two of you take a step back, and we can wait here for a while, but Fellow Daoist Bashe must swear by his inner demon that what he just said is true, and give Fellow Daoist Shen and me two generous gifts as compensation. After all, we are taking a huge risk by staying here to wait for you."
