Legendary Domain?
The Price of Evil are intended for those who try to exploit the system, which is why there are no rewards for triggering this task, and there are even penalties.
Even if you try your best, you will eventually fail to suppress it with ornaments.
Then Blue Fatty will have no choice but to use his treasure, the stone that Old Wang obtained, to help suppress the Evil Spirit.
After some effort, the Evil Spirit will be defeated by the Player.
Player will not have a chance to obtain the Blue Fatty's stone if they complete these two quests normally.
Even if they had a Legendary Light Element treasure to replace the stone, they wouldn't have the chance to use it.
Even someone like Old Wang, who uses Legendary Equipment to swap out that item during a quest, might not necessarily have the chance.
Old Wang had only just realized that the reason the Evil Spirit was able to break free of the seal was because the Security Chief in Fairy City wanted to suppress Dark Night and General Huang's faction.
He suffered an undeserved misfortune and wasted a great deal of time.
Meanwhile, Blue Fatty misjudged Old Wang, causing him to become nervous and forget about his treasure.
After defeating the Evil Spirit, he left this thing behind as a reward for Old Wang.
To obtain this item requires a combination of luck, kindness, and skill.
As for what this stone is, it's quite something; this stone is called the [Divine Heart], an Epic item.
His sole purpose is to allow Mecha capable of controlling Divine Element to randomly acquire a Divine Element skill.
Old Wang happens to possess the ability to control Divine Element, and the skill he mastered is called [Wish-Fulfilling Golden-Hooped Rod].

Old Wang couldn't be more satisfied with this skill. After all, who didn't have an idol named Great Sage Equal to Heaven when they were a kid?
After putting away the bottle that had truly turned into a collectible, Wang Qianduo headed to the Dark Night Bar.
He was paraded through the streets in Handcuffs; he couldn't escape their influence. He couldn't afford to pay for it without receiving some bribes.
However, considering Alan's good intentions, Wang Qianduo only asked them to investigate Bai Tianyu's weaknesses for free.
~~~
The next day
Before any news came from the Dark Night side, Old Wang, who had just acquired another powerful skill, led his team confidently into the Instance Dungeon.
He felt confident that they would be fine today; the Wish-Fulfilling Golden-Hooped Rod) gave him great confidence, and he felt like he was the Great Sage Equal to Heaven!
This skill is indeed powerful. After the Wish-Fulfilling Golden-Hooped Rod, made of golden energy, appeared in his hand, Old Wang's output exploded.
He doesn't usually use it for damage output; instead, he uses it as a staff.
Old Wang's instant-cast skill, combined with the Golden Cudgel's Ignore defense and its high attack bonus, nearly allowed him to kill the Spider Robot with 2/3 of its health in 15 seconds.
But what no one expected was that the final boss battle had only just begun after the Spider Robot was destroyed.
After the Spider Robot was defeated, the three Maka Baka also left the stage; they were originally one with the Spider Robot.
Then the entire castle began to collapse, and as everyone fled, a game cutscene played, showing them the life of Black Shark Pirates Bai Tianyu.
"Hello, judges! My name is Bai Tianyu!"
The animation opens with a large-scale talent show, where Bai Tianyu is introducing himself to the judges.
However, the judges were clearly not interested in this person who had an average appearance and temperament, so unsurprisingly, he was eliminated.
Unwilling to give up, Bai Tianyu came up with a very rudimentary plan: he wanted to intercept the judge and beg him to give him another chance, because he really loved music.
But by sheer coincidence, he witnessed a dirty deal between a judge and a contestant, and then he was caught.
The judge told him not to tell anyone, and that he would give him a chance.
He agreed, which became the turning point in his tragic life.
On the day of the competition, after he finished singing, he was greeted not with flowers and applause, but with police.
He was framed by that judge for theft and sent to the infamous Heavenly Prison Star.
This Planet is a Prison, holding the most notorious people in the entire Starry Sky.
Theft should never have been sent here; the reason he was sent here is self-evident.
For a weak person like him, Heavenly Prison Star was a true Prison earth.
Fortunately, a powerful figure who enjoyed his taste saved his life, but his voice was completely ruined.
The mental and physical torment nearly broke him, and hatred continued to fester in the Abyss of suffering.
He learned from all sorts of people in the Prison, and soon, with his extraordinary talent for bioengineering, he achieved remarkable results.
In his sixth year in Prison, Bai Tianyu used his hard-earned skills to poison two-thirds of the Prison and escaped in the chaos by piloting a stolen spaceship.
He also became the first prisoner to escape from Heavenly Prison Star, leaving the Alliance with a huge mess.
After escaping from Prison, Bai Tianyu's first action was not to seek revenge, but to go home.
But what happened next plunged him into Abyss: his home was destroyed by war, and none of his family members survived.
Perhaps it was divine retribution that made him witness the Alliance warships clashing in space with a notorious rebel Rebels, the conflict spilling over into his homeland.
With the last vestige of hope in his heart destroyed, Bai Tianyu became completely corrupted.
He first tormented the judge who framed him for a week, then killed the entire family in front of him before finally getting rid of him.
But having avenged himself, he did not stop; he vowed to make everyone feel the same pain he had endured.
So he formed the ruthless Black Shark Pirate Group and began developing weapons capable of destroying the world.
Er Duo killed the parents of these children, and he also led the massacre of Momedga's family.
From that day on, killing became his only pleasure!
Bai Tianyu's life ended there. After everyone escaped from the castle, the entire castle collapsed underground.
Soon, a half-giant boss, similar in type to the second phase of Momeidejia, emerged from underground.
His size was far beyond that of Momedega; his massive, mountain-like body brought an unimaginable sense of oppression to everyone.
Then an energy shock that covered the entire Instance Dungeon erupted from his body, clearing everyone except Old Wang out of the Instance Dungeon.
Old Wang managed to withstand the attack by Magic Energy Burst, but he was unable to move. He was then struck by a Sound Wave from the giant's mouth, which triggered a Desperate Counterattack, resulting in his instant death.
Even though the Magic Energy Burst was constantly restoring his health, he still couldn't withstand the instant-kill damage.
"This is a boss we can't possibly beat at this stage!" Sword of Miracles said after everyone revived for the third time.
Wang Qianduo nodded. Bai Tianyu's second stage was indeed so strong that it was despair-inducing; they saw absolutely no hope of defeating him.
This is different from his first phase. Although the three hanging things in the first phase were torturous, they were not without any hope.
But with his halberd form, there's absolutely no hope of winning the game.
"That's all for today, everyone disperse!" Lin Qimeng said to the group.
There's no point in wasting time with him until we figure out how to deal with him at this stage.
After the team disbanded, Old Wang led Lin Qimeng and the others to the Night Wharf, where Scarface, Alan, and Yuan Wuji greeted them.
"Sir, we've made progress on the three robots you asked us to investigate," Scarface said directly after Wang Qianduo arrived at Dark Night.
Tell me about it.
"We don't actually have much information about Black Shark Bai Tianyu, and we've never heard of him having these three robots."
But we found out that he discovered an Ancient Starry Sky Ruins some time ago.
Regarding that ruin, we found this Legendary.
It was a powerful kingdom from Ancient Era, and the kingdom's Legendary spoke of a nearly invincible Guardian Knight.
The people they protect are hard to harm as long as they are alive.
Our further investigation revealed that these so-called Guardian Knight were actually Witchcraft Puppet made from humans.
This puppet basically matches what you described..."
Scarface explained to Wang Qianduo that Dark Night was indeed powerful; they had investigated and solved the matter in just one day.
"Actually, we not only found out their origins, but also the weaknesses of these puppets," Yuan Wuji.
"Tell me?" Wang Qianduo
Of course!
Although Black Shark's puppets use the bodies of modern robots, they are essentially still Witchcraft Puppet.
The means to counter these ancient witchcrafts are the way to deal with them.
"The simplest of these methods is to kill the caster, and the next simplest is to use the Demon-Breaking Cone to nail their souls!" Yuan Wuli said to the others.
Killing the caster is out of the question; if they could kill Bai Tianyu, they wouldn't have come here to gather information.
Therefore, they can only use the Demon-Breaking Cone, which is only found in certain special places.
"Thanks! By the way, have you ever heard of an aura skill that can cover a very wide area?" Wang Qianduo asked after describing Bai Tianyu's second-stage skill to the group.
"Why does this sound so much like the Domain Skill of Legendary powerful figures?" Yuan Wuji asked.
"Field?!"
"That's right, the Domain is a skill that can only be mastered by Legendary- level Mecha, and it is also an important means for Legendary Mecha to crush other Mecha."
Moreover, a domain can only be used to deal with another domain; those without a domain will find it difficult to move an inch in someone else's domain.
"But aren't you supposed to be dealing with Black Shark Bai Tianyu? He's still a long way from becoming Legendary, isn't he?" Scarface.
"It won't last long. That freakish killer Black Shark had already reached the Half-Step Legendary by some unknown means when I left Angu," Yuan Wuji.
"No wonder, we really have no way to deal with this. The only thing that can deal with a true Domain is a Domain!" Scarface.
