In the cold, tranquil universe, a vast dam stretched endlessly forward into the unknown. Majestic and grand, it cut off the path ahead.
Standing before the dam, Li Qingshan and Xia Wuji appeared incredibly small, like ants.
“This is enormous,” Xia Wuji exclaimed.
Li Qingshan was equally astonished. He had never seen such a magnificent structure. Every brick on the dam was a rare treasure, made of materials that could be used to forge Great Path Weapons for Emperors.
The civilization behind the dam had gone to great lengths to seal off the Immortal Plane.
Gazing at the dam, Li Qingshan looked left and right but found no signs of life.
“Should we go up and take a look?” Xia Wuji pointed to the top of the dam.
“Let’s check it out.” Li Qingshan agreed. He immediately took Xia Wuji and swiftly flew to the top of the dam.
Despite his current power, it still took him a full minute to reach the top.
Landing at the summit of the dam, they looked around and saw what seemed like a vast land. Li Qingshan remembered seeing a similar dam in the Stele World within the forbidden land of the Heaven-defying family.
It was identical to this one.
In that Stele World, he had witnessed an expert from the Barbarian Clan retrieving Qingqing’s mother’s body and burying it in the Forbidden Land of the Heaven-defying family.
That was many years ago.
There were no signs of life on the dam. Li Qingshan and Xia Wuji walked on it, unnoticed, as no one would pay attention to two ants on such an expansive land.
Xia Wuji even struck the dam with all his might.
Boom!
Having inherited the Kunlun Immortal’s power, Xia Wuji’s strength was unfathomable. His full-force attack echoed through the dam.
But the dam remained unscathed.
“How is this possible?” Xia Wuji couldn’t believe it. Even with his immense power, far beyond that of an ordinary Emperor, he couldn’t leave any marks on the dam.
Li Qingshan silently observed, noticing the ancient runes that had briefly flickered on the dam.
“Don’t waste your energy. This dam is inscribed with a massive formation of runes. It can’t be destroyed by the strength of one or two people,” Li Qingshan advised, warning Xia Wuji not to exhaust himself needlessly and risk exposing them to the civilization behind the dam.
Understanding the situation, Xia Wuji stopped. Without breaking the formation, they couldn’t easily destroy the dam.
“Where are Immortal Northstar and the others?” Xia Wuji looked around the dam.
Li Qingshan also searched.
The immense dam stretched across the universe like a vast plain. Carefully searching with their Emperor primordial spirits, they found no trace of Immortal Northstar.
“Let’s keep looking along the dam. We should find them eventually,” Li Qingshan said softly, undeterred.
The dam spanned countless miles across the universe. It was understandable that Immortal Northstar and the others weren’t in this section.
Walking along the dam, Li Qingshan and Xia Wuji moved quickly, observing various marks along the way.
“These marks were left by ancient weapons. Even with the formation’s protection, the dam still suffered damage.” Xia Wuji noted this after careful examination.
Li Qingshan nodded. Despite the protection of the formation, the Ancient Celestial Court had once launched an all-out assault on the dam, causing permanent damage.
The numerous scars on the dam were remnants of those battles.
In ancient times, under the leadership of the Kunlun Immortal, the Ancient Celestial Court fiercely attacked the dam, clashing with the civilization behind it.
That battle had left the dam with indelible scars.
Even now, those damages remain.
Touching these scars, Xia Wuji sighed, “If Master and the others had succeeded back then, the Immortal Plane would be very different now.”
Li Qingshan patted his shoulder, saying, “What our predecessors couldn’t finish, we will.”
As they continued along the dam, Li Qingshan and Xia Wuji saw no signs of life. In the vast universe, with no sky above or ground below, time seemed meaningless.
They pressed on.
Finally, they saw a figure.
In a section of the dam, a terrifying scene unfolded.
An ancient demon lay coiled on the dam, its presence engulfing the surroundings. Hidden in the darkness of the universe, its massive body emitted a sinister aura.
This ancient demon was incredibly powerful. Xia Wuji, seeing it, trembled and quickly stood behind Li Qingshan.
“Very terrifying,” Xia Wuji said seriously.
Li Qingshan enveloped them in his aura, masking their presence. They watched the ancient demon from a distance, not daring to approach and risk-provoking it.
Even with his current strength, Li Qingshan found the ancient demon extremely formidable.
Lurking in the universe’s darkness, the demon resembled a colossal mountain, its aura like thunder, dormant but capable of unleashing a cataclysmic storm at any moment.
Observing closely, Li Qingshan suddenly realized that the ancient demon had the form of a gigantic frog.
