Though this time had been extremely perilous for Ling Tian and the others, it had ultimately ended with everyone safe and sound. They had also gained considerable benefits. Ling Tian had acquired a bolt of Lightning Power, while the other cultivators had collected plenty of Ultimate Lightning Tribulation Power. Refining it would greatly improve their mastery of that power and increase their chances of successfully overcoming their tribulations in the future.
Most importantly, they now knew this method could no longer threaten Ling Tian. They no longer had to worry that someone might use it against him again—and, in fact, they hoped people would try. That way, Ling Tian could bind more bolts of lightning and gain even greater benefits.
"Even a cultivator at the mid-stage of the Near-Saint Nineteenth Heaven couldn't snatch the Phoenix Soul Fruit essence from us. I'm afraid no one will dare attack Ling Tian again," the Young Leader said, glancing at Ling Tian. "Besides, as time passes, Ling Tian will absorb more and more of the Phoenix Soul Fruit essence, leaving less and less behind. Naturally, fewer cultivators will try to attack him, until eventually no one does."
They all knew that as the Phoenix Soul Fruit essence dwindled, fewer cultivators would try to attack Ling Tian. That meant he would grow safer and safer. And knowing that he wasn't afraid of the Ultimate Lightning Tribulation's attacks, they finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Though they reasoned that no cultivator would rashly attack Ling Tian next, they still dared not let their guard down, just in case.
