Chapter 609 Zhang Tianhao Battles the Celestial God Peak Taboo

In the blink of an eye, another year passed.

Although Cai Wankun and Lin Qianyan possessed terrifying talent, breaking through was not something that could be accomplished in a short time. Furthermore, the Realms above the God Realm placed an even greater emphasis on affinity; one could only break through when the right moment came, and if the timing was not right, one might not break through even after eons.

Coupled with Cai Wankun and Lin Qianyan being extremely anxious, it became even more impossible for them to break through in a short timeframe.

Watching this scene, Zhang Tianhao's expression turned extremely unsightly. His Divine Power was running dry, yet the surrounding Forbidden Creatures showed no sign of decreasing, still charging toward their location without fear of death.

Surrounding him, Zhou Zulong and Xiang Shaoyu looked at this scene with growing fear on their faces. Looking at Zhang Tianhao, they asked, "First Senior Brother, if Second Senior Brother and Third Senior Sister cannot break through, what should we do?"

"Don't worry, I believe they will definitely be able to do it."

Zhang Tianhao took a deep breath and spoke with an extremely serious expression. He was not just reassuring Zhou Zulong and Xiang Shaoyu, but truly believed in Cai Wankun and Lin Qianyan. After all, having spent so much time with them, he naturally believed they would not disappoint him.

Of course, Zhang Tianhao had also prepared his final resort. If Second Junior Brother and Third Junior Sister could not break through in time, he could only risk his life to send them out. After all, as the First Senior Brother, he had the duty to protect them.

At the same time, Cai Wankun and Lin Qianyan had both fallen into an extremely wondrous state. However, neither of their current situations was good; both were stuck in an extremely weird bottleneck, akin to wanting to soar into the sky but feeling like something was always missing.

"What exactly is missing? I just feel like I'm missing something."

Within his consciousness, Cai Wankun thought anxiously. During his previous Breakthroughs, he had never felt any obstacles, yet now he actually encountered one. This left Cai Wankun thoroughly baffled, but he could only exert all his effort to charge at the God King Realm.

Opposite him, Lin Qianyan was in the same state. Both of them were trapped in a situation where they wanted to break through but were powerless to do so.

Moreover, most importantly, even though they were striving for the God Emperor Realm, they could still clearly see the situation outside. Thus, their already anxious hearts became even more frantic.

In the blink of an eye, another year passed.

Cai Wankun and Lin Qianyan still had made no progress whatsoever. On the other hand, Zhang Tianhao felt like he was about to break through from the Nine-Turn True God Peak to the Early Stage Earth God Realm—no, it wasn't just a feeling; he was genuinely about to break through.

Sensing the unsuppressible cultivation within his body, Zhang Tianhao's expression grew extremely solemn. He had originally thought it would take a long time to break through to Earth God, which was why he had let Second Junior Brother and Third Junior Sister try to break through first. He hadn't expected that he would actually break through ahead of them. Since that was the case, he would do it himself.

Thinking of this, Zhang Tianhao hesitated no longer, looking at Cai Wankun and Lin Qianyan as he said, "Cover me and let me break through."

"Yes, First Senior Brother!"

As Zhang Tianhao's words fell, Cai Wankun and Lin Qianyan both withdrew from their meditative attempts at breaking through and opened their eyes. Their expressions were full of complexity, clearly blaming themselves for their failure.

However, Zhang Tianhao did not dwell on this at the moment. As he began to charge at the Earth God Realm, a terrifying aura surged from his body in the next second. Instantly, a surging Great Dao Tribulation emerged from the Void Realm, destroying everything around.

Seeing this scene, Cai Wankun and Lin Qianyan shouted, "Be careful!"

Immediately, the two directly resisted the Great Dao Tribulation while also protecting Xiang Shaoyu and Zhou Zulong. After all, Zhang Tianhao's Great Dao Tribulation was extremely terrifying; with Xiang Shaoyu and Zhou Zulong's strength, they could not withstand it at all. Even so, Zhou Zulong and Xiang Shaoyu's faces turned deathly pale. Clearly, the Lightning Tribulation was so terrifying that their strength could not prevent them from being affected.

However, Zhang Tianhao did not even try to resist such a terrifying Lightning Tribulation, allowing it to strike his body. Yet it had no impact on him whatsoever. After all, his strength had reached a whole new terrifying level, and ordinary Lightning Tribulations could not affect him at all.

The surrounding Forbidden Creatures were instantly annihilated by the terrifying power the moment they touched the Great Dao Lightning Tribulation, without even a chance to resist.

Seeing this, Zhang Tianhao shouted, "Follow me!"

With that, Zhang Tianhao headed toward the outside of the Patrol Sky Domain. The Great Dao Lightning Tribulation naturally followed. Wherever Zhang Tianhao went, the Forbidden Creatures were annihilated by the Great Dao Lightning Tribulation without exception. Seeing this, Cai Wankun and the others hurriedly followed behind. Although they looked somewhat disheveled, it was far better than being swarmed and torn to pieces by the Forbidden Creatures.

However, soon enough, Zhang Tianhao sensed something, and his expression turned extremely unsightly.

"Not good!"

As Zhang Tianhao's words fell, a figure appeared before him in the next second, its hands slashing toward Zhang Tianhao like sharp blades. Subconsciously, Zhang Tianhao wrapped his hands in Divine Power, intending to block the strike, but the moment contact was made, his hands were severed directly, spraying blood into the sky.

"What!"

Seeing this scene, Cai Wankun and the others following behind were filled with shock. They naturally knew how powerful First Senior Brother was, so seeing someone able to inflict such a terrifying injury on him, their confidence finally began to shake.

However, Zhang Tianhao did not care about what Cai Wankun and the others were thinking. His expression was extremely grave. His severed hands regrew in an instant, but he noticed a strange power entering his body along with the wound, which he had no way of expelling even if he wanted to.

Furthermore, there was no opportunity right now, so Zhang Tianhao could only suppress this power within his body and focus on dealing with the enemy in front of him first.

After his hands regrew, Zhang Tianhao carefully observed the creature that had attacked him earlier. Upon sensing the other party's aura, his heart sank.

"It has the strength to injure me at merely the Celestial God Peak. Just what is the origin of this creature?"

Before Zhang Tianhao could think further, the Forbidden Creature attacked again, launching a fierce assault at him. Seeing this, Zhang Tianhao could only passively endure the Great Dao Tribulation while focusing on dealing with the Forbidden Creature in front of him. The price for doing so was that the advantage he had gained completely vanished, and before long, the Forbidden Creatures surrounded Cai Wankun and the others once again.

Meanwhile, the Great Dao Tribulation continuously struck down on Zhang Tianhao and the Celestial God Peak Forbidden Creature, yet it had zero effect on them. After all, neither of them was at a level that an Earth God could harm, so they naturally didn't fear the Great Dao Tribulation of the Earth God rank. The two figures fought freely, bathed in the Great Dao Lightning Tribulation.

As for Cai Wankun and the others, looking at the Forbidden Creatures surrounding them once again, their brows tightly furrowed.

In their hearts, they had a premonition that today they would likely meet their end here.
