Feng Xun frowned when he heard that.
Zuo Qingluan was almost a Spiritual Lord now? That was unbelievably fast.
Back in the Dragon’s Gate, Feng Wu had finally managed to stop vomiting blood.
She raised her head to speak, but the war hammer was coming at her again.
All the energy seemed to have gathered around the war hammer, and it resembled a giant dragon!
“Oh, no!”
Feng Wu frowned and her heart raced.
There was no way she could withstand another strike.
She knew that General Zhongliang didn’t have much energy left, and he could only perform three more strikes at most.
Therefore, she had to stall for time.
But how?
What could she use to protect herself from the formidable war hammer?
Suddenly, Feng Wu’s eyes flickered.
Yes!
She had been suppressing her spiritual essence and stopping herself from making a breakthrough, but now, it was time!
When the war hammer struck down again, Feng Wu made her move.
Her dantian was wide open like a dam releasing a flood, and endless spiritual essence poured out, filling Feng Wu’s energy channels!
The moment the giant war hammer swung down —
Crack —
Lightning tore the sky open!
Rumble —
It struck down at Feng Wu’s head!
The formidable war hammer and the lightning tangled with each other in the air.
Beneath them, Feng Wu was untouched.
“That… that…”
“OMG… What’s going on here?”
“What happened?”
The flash of lightning illuminated everyone’s faces through the screen and covered them in white light.
Everyone exchanged bewildered looks.
In fact, they already had a guess, but they just didn’t want to admit it.
Finally, Feng Xun heaved a sigh and said, “Little Feng Wu is making a breakthrough, isn’t she?”
He was talking to Jun Linyuan.
The crown prince stood there with his hands behind his back, his long sleeves touching the ground.
“Yes.” He nodded.
Everyone was speechless.
Young Lord Feng and the crown prince had just said it out loud.
Hence, the crowd couldn’t deny it anymore.
The lightning which struck down at Feng Wu during her breakthrough had hit General Zhongliang’s war hammer instead.
As they clashed with each other, Feng Wu became the happy onlooker.
“But at Feng Wu’s current level, why would nature give her a lightning tribulation?”
“More importantly, how did she time it so well? No one can make a breakthrough just because they want to.”
“Is it possible that she’s been keeping herself from making a breakthrough all along?”
–
Feng Wu didn’t know about all the questions they had, but even if she did, she wouldn’t have had the time to answer.
That was because —
She was too busy making her breakthrough!
She had suppressed her spiritual essence for so long this time that once she unleashed it, it flooded into every part of her body, the impact almost paralyzing her.
The excruciating pain in her internal organs nearly knocked her out.
Sweat rolled down her cheeks and soaked her back.
Her face drained of all color, and she shook uncontrollably. She bit her lower lip so hard that blood trickled down from the corner of her mouth.
But that was the only way that she could remain conscious.
Moreover, she knew better than anyone else that this was only the beginning.
Whoosh —
Feng Wu finally made it. She was a Spiritual Elder now.
