Urban Demon Refining System

The scene shifts back to Zhao Baichuan, who, prompted by Biluo, descends back into the well. Strangely, Zhao Chen and the others who were just pulled down have vanished.

“Tricolor lizard! Can you smell Professor Zhao and the others?” Zhao Baichuan couldn’t help but ask.

"Squeak!" The tricolor lizard lowered its head, sniffed the ground, and quickly crawled in one direction.

"Let's follow!" Zhao Baichuan's eyes lit up, and he quickly followed. Strangely, the tricolor lizard just spun around in place and refused to move forward.

"Hmm? What's wrong?" Zhao Baichuan asked, puzzled. "Could it be that the body of the King of Wuji Kingdom is hidden here?" Soon, he noticed something amiss, because there was a puddle of water there.

"This well has been dry for a long time. There wasn't a drop of water when I was teleported here. How come there's this puddle now?" He subconsciously stepped on it, and the next moment, the whole world spun around!

"What's going on!" When he regained consciousness, the surroundings had changed. It was no longer the broken well wall, but a closed room. In the center of the room was a red wooden coffin, and three figures were lying next to the coffin. They were Zhao Chen and the other two who had been pulled down!

"Professor Zhao?" Zhao Baichuan ran to Zhao Chen's side and examined him carefully. He found that Zhao Chen's face had turned a strange bluish-black color and his skin had become much more wrinkled.

"He's been poisoned by corpse poison!" Suddenly, the phone screen in her pocket lit up, and Baihua Xiu's figure appeared on it.

"Um, Princess Hundred Flowers, what's wrong with you...?"

"This is a rare place of profound Yin energy, perfect for my cultivation!" Baihua Xiu ignored his doubts and instead looked around the environment with great interest. "Not bad, not bad! If I can cultivate here for a hundred years, I will definitely be able to regain my former strength!"

"Princess Baihua! Are Professor Zhao and the others alright?" This was Zhao Baichuan's biggest concern at the moment. The situation outside was unclear, and he had to rescue Zhao Chen and the others first.

"Don't worry! This corpse poison is just an accumulated toxicity. Once we leave this place, the toxins will gradually subside!" Baihua Xiu said. "However, this wooden coffin is a bit troublesome!"

"What trouble?"

"This should be the body of the King of Wuji Kingdom. Judging from the appearance, he has been lying here for hundreds of years. I just wonder who was the one who impersonated the king back then?" Baihua Xiu was obviously still thinking about other questions. "Zhao Baichuan, can you open the coffin and let me take a look?"

"Open the coffin!" Zhao Baichuan felt a chill run down his spine; he had an instinctive fear of coffins.

"Don't worry! His soul is still outside; he won't come back to life!"

"Alright!" Zhao Baichuan gritted his teeth and slowly moved the coffin lid away. Strangely, there was no resistance at all during the process!

"Bang!" The coffin lid was flipped open, revealing the scene inside. Lying inside was a man wearing a crown!

"Is this the King of Wuji Kingdom? How can he be so young?" Zhao Baichuan was somewhat astonished. Journey to the West says that the King of Wuji Kingdom has an adult prince, who must be at least forty or fifty years old. However, the corpse that appears here has smooth and lustrous skin, and at most looks to be only twenty-five or twenty-six years old.

"The Youth-Preserving Pearl is indeed miraculous; it actually has the effect of reversing aging!" Baihua Xiu was also somewhat surprised, and it took her a while to react. She gently patted the chest of the King of Wuji Kingdom with her delicate hand, and a green pearl flew out from his body.

"Is this the Youth-Preserving Bead?" Zhao Baichuan asked, looking at the green bead. It looked no different from an ordinary glass ball.

"Of course! This tiny bead alone is enough to make most women in the world flock to it!" Baihua Xiu carefully examined the Youth-Preserving Bead. "To maintain eternal youth! What woman wouldn't want that? Unfortunately, even if you're beautiful, what good is it if no one appreciates it? This Youth-Preserving Bead is nothing but a useless trifle to me!" She sighed softly. "Your little lover seems to really like this. Why don't you take it and give it to her?"

With a flick of her finger, Baihua Xiu sent the Youth-Preserving Pearl into Zhao Baichuan's hand.

“This…” Zhao Baichuan scratched his head. What little lover? She’s a merman, okay? They’re even from different races!

Ignoring his self-pity, Baihua Xiu continued, "That mermaid girl is right, this corpse is indeed the key to suppressing that evil spirit, but before that, we need to stabilize his body!"

She made a complex hand gesture, and in an instant, a deluge of flower petals fell from the sky, covering the body of the King of Wuji Kingdom and quickly filling the wooden coffin.

"Read it as written!" Baihua Xiu flicked out a talisman and said to Zhao Baichuan.

"What is this thing?" He instinctively took it, but before he could ask, a sinister female voice rang out, "Ding! Congratulations, player, you have obtained the Summoning Spell! Learn it?"

"Confirm learning!"

"Ding! Congratulations to the player for learning the Summoning Spell!" Zhao Baichuan suddenly felt a sharp pain in his head, and a strange memory flooded in.

A series of awkward pronunciations came out of his mouth, and the talisman seemed to come alive, flying to the King of Wuji Kingdom's forehead and sticking there.

"Damn it! They actually disturbed my body!" Outside the well, the soul of the King of Wuji Kingdom, who had just been fighting with Biluo for control of his body, could no longer care about controlling Biluo. He flew out of her body and headed towards the bottom of the well.

"It actually worked!" Biluo felt a lightness in her body and slumped down, but she couldn't hide her surprise in her eyes. She never expected that he would actually find the body of the King of Wuji Kingdom!

"Damn it! Get away from my body!" As soon as the King of Wuji Kingdom's soul returned to the bottom of the well, he spotted Zhao Baichuan next to the wooden coffin and roared as he pounced on him.

"Keep reading! Don't stop!" Baihua Xiu placed her hand on his shoulder, signaling him not to be affected. "This guy is just bluffing right now. Without a new body to supply energy, his soul won't last long. Once he returns to his body, he'll be fish on the chopping block, not far from being slaughtered by us!"

Just as she expected, when the soul of the King of Wuji Kingdom saw that Zhao Baichuan had no intention of stopping his incantation, he became anxious and wanted to leave. However, the incantation was like a curse, guiding him to slowly move towards the corpse.

"No! I don't want to go back!" With a final, piercing scream from his soul, the King of Wuji Kingdom's body and soul finally merged into one, and his tightly closed eyes slowly opened!
