Gu Lan suddenly smiled and said, "Thank you for your kindness, Demon Lord. I just don't know if this bundle of immortal ropes is useful. Why don't I try it on you?"

Before she finished her words, she threw the rope towards the Demon Lord. The Demon Lord never expected her sudden attack and was frightened, but did not run away.

The bundle of fairy ropes was shining with golden light. Although it was close to her body, it did not tie her up, but flew back to Gu Lan's hand.

Gu Lan held the flying immortal rope and said, "This immortal rope must be fake."

The demon lord folded his arms and snorted, knowing that you have bad intentions!

"Of course it's real, but this isn't my real body, so the Immortal Binding Rope is useless. You, my disciple, are really ungrateful. I offered you my treasure out of kindness, but you treated me like this."

You are not offering the treasure out of kindness, you are just trying to seduce me to help you.

Although Gu Lan thought so in her heart, she didn't dare to say it out loud. At this moment, she was still in her illusion. If she exposed it and angered her, it would not end well for her.

Gu Lan's eyes turned and he said, "You also know that I am poor and have little experience, so naturally I don't know what treasures are. What if I get cheated? There is no one else here, so I have to try you. You are the demon lord who commands a region, so you will definitely not get angry over such a small matter, right?"

"Hmph!" Although she knew that the other party was a smooth talker, she did not dare to say anything final as he needed her help. When she was about to say something else, the sound of the flute suddenly came again. She felt a splitting headache, her face turned pale, and she almost fell down.

As soon as the sound of the flute stopped, she covered her head and sat up straight again.

At this moment, the expression on her face became honest and simple, no longer as evil as before.

Gu Lan looked at the Demon Lord in surprise, whose expression changed faster than turning the pages of a book, and blinked, not understanding what was going on.

"You didn't promise her, did you?" she suddenly asked anxiously.

Gu Lan shook his head hesitantly.

Seeing that Gu Lan didn't understand, he explained, "Don't be afraid. I was originally a reincarnated tree here. I cultivated for a thousand years with the spiritual energy of the Tianyin Sect, and then I became conscious. Who would have thought that this monster would see me and take over my body, sucking up all the spiritual energy here. Every midnight, it attracts people to come here to offer sacrifices, and it has killed many cultivators and done many unscrupulous things, destroying my thousand-year cultivation. He wants to borrow your body to cultivate immortality, so you must not agree, otherwise he will take over your body."

Gu Lan saw that part of what she said was true, and for a moment he couldn't tell whether she was really reincarnated as wood, so he cautiously didn't say anything.

The reincarnation wood continued, "I don't have much time left, so the monster wants to find a monk to quickly transfer, but I won't let him succeed even if I die. Just now, I saw you risking your life to save the disciples of Tianyan Sect in that temple, and I know that you are a kind and righteous person. I wonder if you can do me a favor?"

Oh my goodness, another one asking for help. Could it be that the demon lord is playing tricks again because he sees that she is unwilling to help?

Gu Lan was not sure, and looked suspicious. Then he started to talk: "How do I know that what you said is true? Besides, you asked me for help, what if you are still the demon lord and lied to me?"

"Of course not."

Seeing that Gu Lan didn't believe him, Zhuanshengmu sat on the mat with his face flushed with anxiety, but he really had no way to prove his innocence. He also thought about the fact that he had been possessed by this monster and had killed countless lives, and he would definitely be punished by heaven. The monster knew that he would be punished by thunder soon, so he was anxious to take over her body and didn't care about her life or death. It was a pity that her cultivation was not easy, but she was destroyed in the hands of the monster.

The more he thought about it, the sadder he became, and the reincarnated wood began to sob.

Seeing her crying, Gu Lan felt sorry for her. Although he had some doubts in his heart, he decided to listen to what the favor was. If it was a favor that was not in his favor, he could just refuse it. It didn't matter.

So he asked, "What help? To save you?"

Tsunami shook her head. "You can't save me." She was obviously disappointed. "I'm dying too, but I have a friend. He's a mermaid I met while traveling. His name is Jing Lian. Now he's trapped in a cave and can't get out. Maybe you can help him."

"But you're holding me now, how can I save him?" Gu Lan found it unbelievable. He was already in prison and about to die, but he was still thinking about his friend, and that friend was not around. How could he save him?

Seeing that Gu Lan's tone had softened, the reincarnated wood became happy again, wiped his tears, and spoke more cheerfully.

"That's easy. I still have some strength. I can use my roots to teleport you over. Remember to let him go and ask him for a mermaid tear. I will then use my roots to teleport you back. Then you hand me the mermaid tear. I will swallow it and we will die together with the monster!"

"That doesn't seem difficult, but what if you lie to me?"

Tenseibo thought about it and pulled out a cluster of purple flames from his body.

He said, "This is my spiritual fire. We are reincarnated as wood beings with spiritual fire. If we have another thousand years, we will be able to become cultivators. By then, we will be cultivators with fire spiritual roots. We can also transcend the calamity and ascend to heaven by practicing again. Unfortunately, I am unlucky and my body has been occupied by this monster. I will soon be punished by heaven. Now I will separate a branch of my spiritual fire and put it into your body. Then you can control me at any time. If I do anything to hurt you, you can take out my spiritual fire and put it in water, and I will die immediately."

Seeing her do this, Gu Lan believed it most of the time. Seeing that she still cared about her friends before her death, she couldn't help but respect her.

"I don't want your spiritual fire, let's get started."

"You don't want my spiritual fire?" Zhuanshengmu couldn't believe it. He didn't believe me before, so why did he believe me now? He didn't want his own spiritual fire. But no matter what, she agreed!

Gu Lan nodded, "I believe you. A person who cares about his friend's safety until his death... must be a good person."

"Thank you." Tsunami was very happy and put the spiritual fire back into his body, "Then let's get started."

The Reincarnation Wood called Gu Lan to come to its side and put its hand on Gu Lan's hand. A little golden light emerged from the Reincarnation Wood's hand, and the golden light was like a small snake, swimming in Gu Lan's meridians.

"Don't be afraid, I won't hurt you." Zhuanshengmu saw that Gu Lan's breathing became a little faster, so he comforted her.

The golden light swam to the heart and began to swirl.

Zhuanshengmu nodded, and Gu Lan also nodded. She felt a strange power, which surged like a spring tide and made her very excited.

Then she floated in the air, the golden light stimulating her entire meridians, bursting out with a powerful life force.

Seeing that the time was ripe, Reincarnation Wood shouted, "Go!" and pushed with both hands, and Gu Lan followed this force into another wonderful space.

It was a long and narrow tunnel. The colorful light inside the tunnel was splashing like a spring. In just a blink of an eye, Gu Lan fell into another room with a thud.
