Chapter 68 - Chapter 67: Gift of a Treasure

"Congratulations!"

Li Yu smiled as he offered his congratulations.

"Thanks to you."

Dugu Bo restrained the aura emanating from his body and walked toward Li Yu, his expression complex as he looked at him.

He no longer knew how to express the gratitude and excitement in his heart.

This day had been a long time coming!

"Each of us got what we needed."

Li Yu shook his head. He understood Dugu Bo nature and didn't want to say too much about it.

When he needed it, Dugu Bo would step forward.

Lingering over it now might have a counterproductive effect.

"Do you have any plans to establish your own force?"

Upon hearing this, Dugu Bo eyes revealed admiration as he shifted the conversation: "I mean, a force completely under your control."

Li Yu was momentarily stunned.

Establishing a force? That was not something he had considered.

Didn't he enjoy the freedom he had now?

And besides, he had Qian Renxue as his husband now.

Wasn't Qian Renxue essentially his?

All he needed to do was help Qian Renxue ascend to the throne, and that was it. He didn't want to think about anything else.

So he shook his head, saying, "I just want to help my husband inherit the throne."

He didn't give Dugu Bo the chance to respond and instead asked, "But now that your ailment is fully resolved, what are your plans next?"

As he spoke, his gaze subtly swept across the surrounding environment.

Dugu Bo paused, then immediately understood Li Yu intent.

He smiled, "This place was an unexpected find. Now that my ailment is completely cured, and even my martial soul shows signs of a second awakening, it's time to leave and seek out greater opportunities!"

After a pause, he added, "So, if you like this place, just treat it as your own."

"Heh heh!"

Li Yu smiled upon hearing this, appearing a bit foolish.

Dugu Bo, seeing this expression, was stunned, quickly averting his gaze.

Seeing Dugu Bo generous attitude, Li Yu didn't hide anything and spoke boldly, "You don't need to go searching for opportunities anymore."

"Hm?"

"Your opportunity is not far away—it's right here in front of you!"

Li Yu smiled and, with a thought, ten "carapace pieces" fell from his fingers, swiftly flying toward a certain spot.

Dugu Bo looked at this scene with some suspicion, not sure what Li Yu was planning.

With his Title Douluo perception, even without focusing on it, he had noticed some of Li Yu actions in the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.

He was also aware of how Li Yu used unknown herbs from this place to enhance his soul power.

But he had never asked about it.

One, he had promised that Li Yu could freely use any herbs in the area.

Two, everyone had their own secrets, and since Li Yu had helped him, he wouldn't pry into his affairs.

Thus, when Li Yu mentioned that his opportunity was right in front of him, besides feeling suspicious, Dugu Bo also felt an inexplicable emotion.

The opportunity was right here, and yet he had never noticed it!

How tragic!

But, was there really any herb or other treasure here that could help him, someone who had already reached the 93rd level as a Title Douluo?

He was skeptical!

But still, he waited in silence.

He didn't believe this place could have an opportunity valuable enough for a 93rd-level Title Douluo, but he trusted Li Yu.

Moments later, the carapace pieces returned, carrying an immortal herb.

The herb was crystal white, each leaf long and curved, resembling the neck of a swan.

Herb: Snow Swan Kiss.

"What's this?"

Dugu Bo eyes revealed confusion. He didn't sense any "opportunity" coming from this "weed."

"This is called 'Snow Swan Kiss,' it's an immortal herb!"

Li Yu repeated the answer that Tang San had given him: "Its effect is simple—it 'stimulates'!"

"It can amplify the toxins in your body by ten or even a hundred times!"

"Before, if you even touched this herb, the Jade Phosphor Serpent Emperor in your body would instantly be aggravated, and within moments, you'd die from poisoning!"

"But now it's different. The toxins in your body have been resolved at the root, and for you, this is no longer a 'poison,' but a tonic!"

"It can even trigger the second awakening of your martial soul!"

Dugu Bo looked at the herb being held up by the carapace pieces, a mix of disbelief and astonishment in his eyes.

There was such a treasure right under his nose!

If Li Yu was telling the truth, he might actually be able to make a huge breakthrough with this.

"This..."

Dugu Bo opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something but couldn't find the right words.

This favor was too great!

"You've just had the Jade Phosphor Serpent Emperor removed, and your soul power has just reached level 93, so it might not be suitable to use this right away. You should keep it for now."

Li Yu, noticing Dugu Bo hesitation, spoke as he moved the carapace pieces in front of him.

He added, "Don't touch it with your hands!"

Dugu Bo withdrew his hand and then took out a small pouch from his waist, just big enough to hold in one hand.

It was a spatial storage soul tool, the Wishful Hundred Treasure Purse.

Li Yu instantly recognized it but didn't think much of it.

With his [Elemental Spirit Domain], he didn't need a spatial storage soul tool.

After storing the herb, Dugu Bo eyes were filled with excitement.

But he still patiently said, "Now that your soul power has reached level 60, I'll go with you to hunt a suitable soul beast!"

After a pause, he added, "With your foundation, you might already be able to absorb a soul ring from a soul beast over 50,000 years old!"

"The Sunset Forest might not be enough..."

"We'll have to go to the Star Dou Forest!"

Li Yu nodded in agreement.

"Indeed..."

"But before that, there's something else!"

His gaze swept over the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well and the surrounding area.

Such a precious place—he couldn't leave it to others, especially not to let Tang San benefit from it.

So,

Anything that could be taken, must be taken!

Of course, he wasn't just picking a few rare immortal herbs like Tang San had done—he planned to take the entire thing!

The space contained within [Elemental Spirit Domain] was vast!

And it could grow larger as his spiritual power increased.

He could easily "transplant" the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, including the entire surrounding area!

Moreover, the elemental energy in his [Elemental Spirit Domain] was even richer than the Sunset Forest or the Star Dou Forest.

After "transplanting," the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well wouldn't be harmed; in fact, it might even develop better!

"Hm?"

Dugu Bo also noticed Li Yu gaze and thought there might be more valuable herbs left to collect, so he silently waited.

But the next moment, he saw Li Yu close his eyes.

Immediately, a strange aura radiated from Li Yu body, spreading outward.

Even Dugu Bo felt an unprecedented refreshing feeling.

This wasn't something he had ever experienced, even in the Star Dou Forest!
