"Haha, young hero, you've finally arrived."
"Lord Bai." Wang Ming was somewhat surprised to see Bai Xiao, not expecting him to come out to greet him personally.
"Haha, young hero, come on, let's go inside and talk."
"Alright, Lord Bai, please go first."
"Haha, please, young hero."
The two walked into the living room together. As soon as Wang Ming sat down, a group of maids brought out a table of delicious food.
"Haha, young hero, this is just a simple meal, I hope you won't find it offensive."
"Not at all, thank you for your hospitality, Lord Bai."
"Young hero, please stop calling me Lord Bai. I see that you are about the same age as me, and it sounds really awkward to me. Please just call me Bai Xiao."
Bai Xiao was a young man, about the same age as Wang Ming. Seeing how straightforward Bai Xiao was, Wang Ming didn't stand on ceremony.
"Alright, since Brother Bai has asked, I will respectfully accept. However, Brother Bai, please don't call me Young Hero anymore."
"My real name is Wang Ming."
"Wang Ming, is this your real name from your other world?"
"Yes."
"Alright, Brother Wang."
After a few rounds of drinks, Wang Ming got straight to the point.
"Brother Bai, I have come here today with a request."
"Oh, Brother Wang, you are my savior, and the savior of the entire Bai Zhou City. Let alone one thing, even ten or a hundred things, just give the order, and I, Bai Xiao, will do my best."
"Brother Bai, you flatter me." Wang Ming cupped his hands and continued, "Brother Bai, do you know anything about the Soul-Awakening Stone?"
"The Soul-Awakening Stone, Brother Wang, you know about this?"
Hmm, this looks promising! Looking at Bai Xiao's expression, Wang Ming knew he had come to the right place.
"good."
"To be honest, Brother Bai, my weapon is a growth-type weapon, and I need this item to upgrade it."
“When the Black Night City attacked, I saw Brother Bai take out the Cold Light Stone as a reward for fighting against the Black Night City. And this Cold Light Stone, like the Soul Awakening Stone, is also an essential material for upgrading my weapon, so I came here to ask about it.”
"Haha, I was wondering who would exchange for something like the Froststone, but it turns out it was Brother Wang who did it. Could it be that Wang Ming's weapon is also an Origin Treasure?"
"Oh? Brother Bai, do you also possess an Origin Treasure?"
"Haha, not bad, I also have an Origin Treasure."
"Alas, it's a pity that it's not the weapon I use. Otherwise, even if Ye Langtian had sided with the demons and used demonic techniques, I would still have been able to cut him down with my sword."
Wang Ming nodded. He knew the power of the Origin Treasure. If Bai Xiaozhen used this weapon, she could indeed kill Ye Langtian.
"Brother Wang is indeed a person of great fortune, otherwise he would not have possessed such a divine object of heaven and earth."
"It's just a coincidence. If Brother Wang had come looking for me before the great battle, I would still have the Soul Awakening Stone in my possession. But now, I no longer have the Soul Awakening Stone."
"What do you mean by that, Brother Bai?"
"Hey, Brother Wang, you'll see once you take a look." With that, Bai Xiao took out a staff and handed it to Wang Ming.
Wang Ming was puzzled, so he started checking the attributes of the staff.

In ancient times, during the great war between immortals and demons, the eight sects of the Yuan Domain gathered divine materials from heaven and earth to forge one of the eight divine artifacts of the Yuan Domain in order to resist the invasion of the demon race.
You can use Soul Awakening Stones and Crimson Stones to upgrade your level; they become bound after a single transaction.
“Brother Wang, in order to resist the powerful enemy during the sudden attack on Black Night City, I used the Soul Awakening Stone to upgrade this staff, intending for the people in the manor to use it. However, she ultimately failed to break through and did not enter the Nascent Soul stage, so she cannot use this item.”
Upon hearing this, Wang Ming realized that he had arrived too late.
However, if he had arrived before the faction war broke out, Bai Xiao wouldn't have recognized him. Let alone hearing about the Soul Awakening Stone, even entering the City Lord's Mansion would have been a problem.
“Brother Wang, don’t be discouraged. Although I don’t have any Soul Awakening Stones, I know where to find them,” Bai Xiao said again, seeing the disappointment on Wang Ming’s face.
"Hmm? Brother Bai, is what you say true?"
"nature."
"Since I cannot complete Brother Wang's task, I will inform Brother Wang of the news about the Soul Awakening Stone. Furthermore, I will also give Brother Wang this Origin Treasure."
"Um, Brother Bai, just tell me where the Soul Awakening Stone is. I can't take this Origin Treasure."
Although this staff is of a lower grade than the Chaos Origin Gauntlets and has one less trait, it is still a genuine artifact that can easily outclass other regular equipment.
Wang Ming wasn't greedy, and he didn't need the weapon, so he wasn't very interested.
“Oh, Brother Wang, please don’t refuse. My maid’s Dao heart is unstable, and she may not be able to reach the Nascent Soul stage. I cannot let this Origin Treasure go to waste in my hands.”
"This is a perfect opportunity to give to Brother Wang as a way of repaying the kindness shown to him at Bai Zhou City."
"If Brother Wang does not agree to accept this item, then I will not reveal the location of the Soul-Awakening Stone."
"Well, alright then, I'll accept your offer."
"Hehe, that's more like it."
"Brother Bai, what about the Soul-Awakening Stone...?"
"Brother Wang, do you know the origin of the Origin Treasure?"
"I know a little about it. It is said that this Origin Treasure was created in ancient times by the eight major sects in order to resist the invasion of the demon race by collecting spiritual objects from heaven and earth."
"Indeed, that is true. However, these spiritual treasures are not unique to our Yuanyu Continent. Among them, the Soul Awakening Stone and the Crimson Sky Stone are from the continent of other countries."
"Foreign lands? Other continents?"
"Yes."
"Originally, we only had one world, which was the Yuanyu Continent where we lived."
"But ever since the ancient war between gods and demons, the Yuanyu Continent has been affected by the war and has been torn apart into more than a dozen large and small continental plates."
"Besides our Yuanyu Continent being located at the center of the world, to the east are the East Hard Continent and the Americas Continent, to the north is the Cold Domain Continent, to the west is the Black Chief Continent, and to the south is the Indian Three Continent, and so on."
"After tens of thousands of years of development, the people on these continents have formed their own unique cultures and are no longer considered people of our Yuanyu Continent, so we call them foreigners."
"And these Soul-Awakening Stones and Crimson Stones are located on the Eastern Hard Continent."
