Chapter 98 - Chapter 98: Testing Strength, the Green-haired Old Man

Shi Yu didn't know the answer; normally, it wouldn't be possible, but he wondered if history would be corrected or altered in some way.

After all, he had taken the Immortal Herb, causing some things to change, which could lead to a chain reaction and alter subsequent events.

For example, the original event of Xiao Wu sacrificing herself might not happen.

He wasn't sure how things would develop, and he was very curious, but none of this affected his decision to collect the Yearning Heartbroken Red.

Shi Yu's method of picking was rather simple: he used spatial power to separate it from its roots.

The preservation method was the same: he wrapped it in spatial power, like a fresh-keeping bag, and then placed it into his Storage Soul Tool.

He didn't know how much of the heavenly materials and earthly treasures' medicinal properties would be preserved or only slightly lost this way.

Anyway, there was no other method; this approach might cause a large loss of medicinal properties in some plants, but he couldn't think of a better way to preserve them.

Shi Yu continuously harvested, busy for most of the day, leaving the originally lush area somewhat barren.

The plants around the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well were swept clean by him, leaving nothing behind.

Looking at the barren herb garden, Shi Yu smiled; his gains from crossing into Tang San's era this time were already quite substantial.

If he were to return now, he wouldn't feel any regret.

"It's better to slip away quickly." Having obtained all the benefits, Shi Yu naturally didn't want to stay long; staying here longer would only mean waiting for Dugu Bo's arrival, with no other purpose.

Shi Yu took one last look at the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well; to say he had obtained all the benefits here was certainly not true.

Deep within these springs, there were still the bones and residual souls of the Ice Fire Dragon King; if utilized, the benefits they could bring him might even surpass what he had gained so far.

That involved two Dragon Kings; if they still had Spirit Bones left behind, the benefits one could obtain after getting them were imaginable.

"Unfortunately, my current strength is not yet suitable for coveting their Spirit Bones and residual souls." Shi Yu dispelled the idea of venturing deep into the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.

It was full of unknowns, and even with his faint Dragon God's Blood, he might not be safe.

He should wait until he was stronger before thinking about those things; he didn't want to court death now.

Before Tang San became a god, he could still come back and possibly obtain the treasures left by the Ice Fire Dragon King.

After Tang San became a god, he should have returned to this place, and with his strength at that time, he might have been able to sense the situation at the bottom of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, or even entered it.

If there were any Spirit Bones or other treasures left there, they might have all been taken by Tang San.

He might not be able to obtain the Ice Fire Dragon King's treasures during the Jue Shi Tang Men Period and Dragon King Legend, so he could only covet those things during this period.

There's no rush now; even if Tang San can still become a god, it will be more than a decade later, and this time should be enough for him to grow stronger.

Shi Yu retracted his gaze, Teleporting continuously, and left the peak where the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well was located.

Shi Yu ascended into the air with a joyful heart, graceful and unrestrained.

It was easy to be targeted by Spirit Beasts in the air, and soon a Flying Spirit Beast attacked him.

"This time, I won't run." Seeing that this Spirit Beast hadn't reached Ten Thousand Year, Shi Yu felt a surge of excitement, intending to test his current strength.

His Eight Spider Lances were released from behind, along with Dragon Scales and Dark Gold Terrorclaw, intending to fight with full power.

When the charging Flying Griffin was only a few meters away, he Teleported away, causing the Flying Griffin to lose its target.

Shi Yu appeared on the Flying Griffin's back, his right hand's Dark Gold Terrorclaw fiercely piercing into the Flying Griffin's body, and his Eight Spider Lances also stabbed out, instantly creating eight bloody holes on the Flying Griffin's back.

They continued to penetrate deeper, as deep as they could go, with venom furiously injected.

"Bang!" His left hand, transformed into a dragon claw, clenched and delivered a powerful punch, causing a large indentation in the Flying Griffin's thick muscles, shaped like a fist print.

The Flying Griffin shrieked, its body shaking violently, trying to shake Shi Yu off its back.

Shi Yu maintained firm contact with the Flying Griffin through his Dark Gold Terrorclaw and Eight Spider Lances, stabilizing his body, so no matter how the Flying Griffin thrashed, it couldn't shake him off.

He attacked relentlessly, furiously striking the Flying Griffin's back; the enormous Flying Griffin found it difficult to harm him.

The Flying Griffin began to tumble in the air, making it difficult for Shi Yu to maintain his balance.

Shi Yu Teleported away, avoiding being thrown off by the force.

The Flying Griffin roared in anger, fiercely charging at Shi Yu, who was suspended in mid-air.

Shi Yu remained calm; after the Flying Griffin got a bit closer, he Teleported away again, reappearing on its back, delivering a series of attacks that made the Flying Griffin shriek repeatedly.

Shi Yu vented his power to his heart's content; this was the emotion accumulated in his heart after his strength surged, and he had to let it out.

When the Flying Griffin's turning was about to throw Shi Yu off, Shi Yu would proactively leave; with his Teleportation ability, he almost toyed with the Flying Griffin.

The opponent found it difficult to harm him, while he could relatively easily harm the Flying Griffin; fighting like this, the Flying Griffin's condition naturally worsened.

The Flying Griffin was somewhat scared; after shaking Shi Yu off again, it didn't attack but fled in the opposite direction, flying unsteadily, blood continuously dripping from its body.

The poison even made its consciousness somewhat blurry; even if it escaped, it might not live much longer.

"I still have a great advantage against larger Spirit Beasts like this," Shi Yu thought to himself.

He had a certain understanding of his current abilities, but he still didn't know his limits.

His powerful spatial ability allowed him to fight above his level; that Flying Griffin, which was nearly seven thousand years old, was easily driven away by him, and he wondered if he could handle a Ten Thousand Year Phoenix.

Most likely, he could; even if he couldn't, he could basically leave with ease.

"Young man, your strength is quite impressive!" A sudden old yet powerful voice made Shi Yu jump in alarm, and he quickly looked towards the sound, then continuously Teleported backward, instantly moving nearly a thousand meters away.

Shi Yu stopped, gravely staring into the distance, where an old man slowly flew into the air from the forest.

His heart was shaken; when he was fighting just now, he had been quite vigilant of his surroundings, ready to leave immediately if there were any dangerous individuals or Spirit Beasts.

But he hadn't detected the old man's presence, which only indicated one thing: this person was much stronger than him.

"In this era, without releasing wings, only Titled Douluo can fly, it seems," Shi Yu thought, seeing the opponent could fly as easily as himself, his heart filled with awe.

He was quite special, possessing powerful spatial abilities, which allowed him to fly through the air.

But there seemed to be no spatial power on the opponent's body, or perhaps there was, but his strength far surpassed his own, so he couldn't sense it.

The tall, slightly thin old man with ink-green hair curiously scrutinized Shi Yu, as if he had discovered some rare treasure.
