Chapter 2029 Did She Succeed? Three days passed fast. During these days, Leng Shaoting was practicing with Gu Ning to help her improve her skills in real fights. At the same time, she was accumulating magical power in the Fusion Stage. In these three days, Jing Yunyao kept on trying to break through the barrier to the next level, but hadn't succeeded yet. At 5 pm, when Gu Ning and the others were about to make some food, the blue sky suddenly became dark. "Did Yunyao succeed?" The next second, Shangguan Yang turned around and directly flew down from the window of the tower, then stopped 10 meters away from the wooden room where Jing Yunyao was. Leng Shaoting and Gu Ning closely followed him, staring at the wooden room anxiously. They were worried that Jing Yunyao might be hurt. However, she could only rely on herself to pass the test. Other people couldn't help her. Gu Ning held Leng Shaoting's hand, trying to comfort him, but she was actually very nervous too. The sky darkened quickly. Within seconds, it was filled with clouds. Afterwards, there was a lightning blast, followed by another lightning bolt, which directly hit the wooden room. In an instant, the wooden room was split to pieces. Jing Yunyao was physically weak right after breaking the barrier, but she regained some strength with the help of the magical pill that Shangguan Yang gave her, so she avoided the hit. She didn't have time to rest, so she was still very weak and the loud thunder kept coming. Before she successfully got to the next level, she needed to go through the lightning tribulation 4 times in all. From turning the power into qi to turn qi into energy, the lightning tribulation was Level 4, including heavenly lightning 9 times. From turning qi into energy to the stage from concrete to abstract, there was heavenly lightning 25 times. From concrete to abstract to free spirit, there was heavenly lightning 49 times. In the last round of the test of thunder, there was heavenly lightning 81 times. This time, Jing Yunyao needed to go through heavenly lightning 25 times, which was quite difficult. Heavenly lightning came with a scary flash again and again. Jing Yunyao did her best to avoid it. Although she succeeded at the beginning a few times, she became powerless afterwards. Left with no choice, she kept on avoiding it. As time went by, Jing Yunyao was recovering her energy. After all, she had made it to the next level, so she became much stronger. She was only weak for a while and was soon filled with energy again. Therefore, Jing Yunyao gradually relaxed in the lightning tribulation, but it wasn't easy to deal with. Because the thunder didn't always come alone and it might come with flashes sometimes, it was harder for Jing Yunyao to pass the test. All of a sudden, Jing Yunyao failed to avoid several flashes mixed with the lightning and was hit on the left arm. Jing Yunyao shook from the pain and released a moan. Seeing that, Leng Shaoting and the others got nervous. If it was possible, Leng Shaoting wouldn't hesitate to suffer the consequences for Jing Yunyao. Unfortunately, he could only watch from the side. The flashes hit Jing Yunyao badly, but she didn't fall due to the protection of her magical energy. However, she still lost a lot of energy. As a result, it again became difficult for her to avoid the following lightning bolts. There were only a few lightning bolts left, but Jing Yunyao almost lost all her energy at this moment. Therefore, she was accurately hit by the thunder and seriously injured, falling straight to the ground. Unfortunately, the last lightning bolt was coming, but Jing Yunyao could barely gather magical energy to protect herself. If she was hit again, her life might be in danger. Leng Shaoting clenched his fists tight as his eyes turned bloody red. His whole body was trembling. He had an urge to rush ahead. However, the cultivator must go through the test on his or her own, and other people couldn't do it for him or her. An idea dawned on Gu Ning, but she wasn't sure whether it was useful. Anyway, she couldn't watch Jing Yunyao being hit by the thunder again, so she decided to try it. Without hesitation, Gu Ning gathered her magical energy and passed it on to Jing Yunyao. She wanted to help Jing Yunyao. Since she couldn't stop the heavenly thunder, she could only give her magical energy to help her recover and reduce the harm after being hit by the heavenly thunder. "Ningning." "Ningning!" Both Leng Shaoting and Shangguan Yang were scared when they found what Gu Ning was doing, but it was too late for them to stop her. They supported Gu Ning if she wanted to help Jing Yunyao, but what she was doing was too dangerous. It could help Jing Yunyao recover, but the lightning would be conveyed to Gu Ning's body. Given Gu Ning's level now, she might not be able to accept it. The magical energy Gu Ning passed on to Jing Yunyao's body indeed helped the injured Jing Yunyao recover a little, then the lightning came right away. When the flash almost touched Jing Yunyao, it suddenly changed direction and moved towards Gu Ning. "Ningning." "Ningning!" Leng Shaoting and Shangguan Yang were terrified, but Gu Ning quickly avoided it, so they were relieved. However, it wasn't over yet. More and more thunder mixed with flashes came one after another. This time, they all went straight to hit Gu Ning. "Master, what's happening here?" Leng Shaoting was in sheer panic. "I don't know." Shangguan Yang was anxious as well. Although he was at a high level, he didn't know everything. There were some things that he had never seen before, so he had no idea about them. "Don't worry, Ningning has the Blood of the Phoenix in her body. She'll be fine," said Shangguan Yang. He had confidence in that, but he was still worried because he couldn't make sure that Gu Ning would be completely fine. The thunder and lightning came fast and heavily, so it took Gu Ning a lot of effort to avoid them. Because both Leng Shaoting and Shangguan Yang were worried about Gu Ning now, they didn't go to check on Jing Yunyao's condition. It wasn't because they didn't care about her, but because they now focused on Gu Ning. Even after the thunder and lightning came a few times, it didn't stop. "What's going on now? Is Ningning going to enter the next level?" Shangguan Yang guessed. Because the Blood of the Phoenix was in Gu Ning's body, other people couldn't see her level. After witnessing the thundering and flashes, Shangguan Yang had that idea. A cultivator didn't need to break the barrier into the next level on his or her own every time. Sometimes, it could suddenly happen in a certain situation, but it was very rare. It was also quite dangerous, especially in such a situation where Gu Ning made a large leap forward. After making a large step forward, she needed to meditate to stabilize her magical energy within a short time. If the magical energy couldn't be stabilized, it would fall into disorder and hurt her. Accordingly, it was quite dangerous for Gu Ning to break into the next level at this moment.
