The Territory Lord now only wished their cultivator could pass. The rank wasn't a priority any longer. They all knew that the test this time was harder than they thought it would be, and asking for rank on top of this hard difficulty was too greedy!
Meanwhile, Yi Tianyun was still meditating, ignoring everything around him. Divine Thunder and Tribulation Fire fused together and hit the ground, forming a huge beam of thunder, not missing any participant on the ground.
The entire God Fighting Field shook as the thunder seemed to shake its core. The scream of the participant was completely inaudible as the thunder strike was too loud, impairing everyone's hearing for a few seconds.
The Territory Lords kept their eyes on their cultivators. They wanted to see whether their disciple was still there or not.
As the smokes dissipated, the number of participants dwindled once more. Now, there were less than half of the previous number as barely 200 cultivators were left in the arena now. Some seemed to barely hold on as their body was already charred from the thunderstrike earlier. However, they quickly took their medicinal pills without any hesitation.
While some were barely holding on, some others didn't seem to be bothered by the thunder at all.
Earth Monarch Tian Qing that covered her body with Sacred Fire didn't seem to be injured by the thunder. It seemed her fire burned the thunder before it could even hit her body.
Earth Monarch Yun Lei also seemed to be fine, but he no longer just endured the thunder with his bare skin this time as a dense Thunder Shield was formed like an umbrella on top of his head.
"It wasn't that hard!" Earth Monarch Yun Lei said as look over towards Yi Tianyun's position. But he couldn't hide his shock as he saw Yi Tianyun didn't seem to use any defensive mechanism to block both the Heavenly Thunder and Tribulation Fire.
"Are you kidding me?" Heavenly Edict Territory Lord said as he, too, was shocked to see Yi Tianyun didn't use anything. He thought that Yi Tianyun was using some kind of abilities to resist the thunder, but now that didn't seem to be the case.
Everyone speculated that Yi Tianyun had Heavenly Thunder Body, but now they weren't sure anymore as Heavenly Thunder Body was weak to the Tribulation Fire.
"Territory Lord, have you forgotten that he has two Demon Fires within him?" Nian Ciyu said casually. Heavenly Edict Territory Lord immediately sat back in relief as he now remembered that Yi Tianyun had two Demon Fires which meant that the Tribulation Fire wouldn't do anything to him! Heavenly Edict Territory Lord just smiled as he knew Yi Tianyun would pass this Stage just fine.
Heavenly Thunder and Tribulation Fire bombarded the arena once again, but Yi Tianyun still endured them just fine. He was wearing Evil Demon God Suit and Desolate Ancient Set. He already had a high Defensive power. He didn't need something like Heavenly Thunder Body to withstand this much Heavenly Thunder.
Even if the Heavenly Thunder penetrated his skin, his body would absorb it just fine. He was in no rush to use any defensive technique to withstand the thunder that came his way. Other cultivators weren't so fortunate as they couldn't allow the Heavenly Thunder to penetrate their skin as it would cause severe damage to their internal system.
After an hour, the 5th Level was finally over. There were 150 cultivators left in the arena, which meant only 150 cultivators would continue to the next Stage! Still, this number was amazing as more than 100 cultivators passed this arduous test.
"We passed!" the cultivators that managed to survive the 5th Level cheered in satisfaction. But still, some cultivators didn't seem to be satisfied with the result. Earth Monarch Tian Qing, in particular, didn't show any emotion at all regarding her result.
"What a bunch of idiots! What are you so happy about?" Earth Monarch Yao Tong coldly said as he looked over towards the cultivators that cheered for their success in passing the 2nd Stage. These geniuses that rarely shared anything with anyone else naturally despised people who did everything in their power and barely passed like them.
Yi Tianyun himself looked over at Xiao Murong's spot as he knew that Heavenly Thunder and Tribulation Fire wasn't something that she could naturally resist. But Yi Tianyun was surprised that Xiao Murong had also passed, despite facing her elemental weakness! Yuan Tianyou also held his ground, but it seemed he was injured by the last Heavenly Thunder!
Ling Yunfeng and Yu Qingling both also passed the 2nd Stage, and they both seemed to be supporting each other.
"Brother Tianyun, what's your secret? You just withstand all Heavenly Thunder with your body!" Xiao Murong asked curiously.
"It's nothing! You just have to keep your eyes open." Yi Tianyun said with a smile on his face. But suddenly, a flash of thunder blinded everyone again. It was a sign that the next Level would start. Although everyone had already reached the Level where they had already passed the 2nd Stage, the 2nd Stage itself wasn't over just yet!
Elder Gou Huang just smiled on top of the observation seat. He wanted to start the 6th Level immediately as he didn't want to give any rest to the participants. Everyone here had passed the 2nd Stage, but the 2nd Stage had up to the 9th Level.
"The 6th Level is about to begin, prepare yourself!" Elder Gou Huang reminded everyone. The cultivators that were rejoicing and cheering as they had already passed the 2nd Stage prepared themselves again as the Heavenly Thunder was about to strike once more.
A golden flash of light appeared, and the thunder immediately struck the ground! There was no doubt in everyone's mind that the golden color came from Metal Attributed Energy.
Sure enough, this Heavenly Thunder was mixed with Metal Energy, and now, it was like a very sharp long spear mixed with Tribulation Fire, making it very hot too! Everyone was shocked by the powerful thunder as it wasn't easy to resist this time.
Yi Tianyun looked up into the sky with his Appraisal Eye and saw that the Heavenly Thunder, this time, had 180.000 Star Power. Yi Tianyun shook his head as this much wasn't even a big deal for him.
But for most of the cultivators here, this much power was already a nightmare!
"If I am only a normal cultivator, I might choose to retire here. This Stage is really too much to handle." Yi Tianyun shook his head. But as he said, this was beyond what a normal Earth Monarch cultivator could handle.
