Regardless of whether what the Demon Frog said was true or false, it seemed that it had been confined on the dam and survived despite being cleaved in half.

“Kid, get lost. His Master deceived and trapped me for millions of years. I’m going to take his life. If you interfere, don’t blame me for being ruthless,” The Demon Frog said coldly and slowly stood up. Even though it was only half its body, it was still as imposing as a towering mountain and had a terrifying aura.

The divine chains that bound him clinked ominously.

Li Qingshan looked at the divine chain and suddenly said, “Senior Demon Frog, the divine chain has trapped you in an inch of land. You can’t move to kill him.”

Xia Wuji’s worry was instantly relieved as he looked at Demon Frog.

Demon Frog’s angry expression froze. He lowered his head and looked at the divine chain that was firmly locking him. With a boom, he sat down and said frustratedly, “You guys can leave.”

As Li Qingshan had pointed out, the chains kept the Demon Frog confined to a small area, rendering it immobile. The civilization behind the dam was so confident of its security that it didn’t even bother to station guards.

“Senior, do you want to break free from the chains and gain freedom?” Li Qingshan thought carefully and then asked with temptation.

The Demon Frog abruptly stared at Li Qingshan, its eyes sharp. It exhaled a dense breath, like the scent of sulfur from molten rock, powerful and immense.

“Kid, are you mocking me?” the Demon Frog asked angrily.

“Why would I mock you, Senior?” Li Qingshan retorted.

“You know I can’t move, so you think you can make fun of me?” the Demon Frog snarled, leaning closer to Li Qingshan. Its gigantic half-face, terrifying and bloodied, loomed over him.

Xia Wuji took a step back, the visual impact up close was overwhelming.

Li Qingshan remained calm, studying the severed part of the Demon Frog, confirming a suspicion.

Not only had the Demon Frog been physically cleaved in half, but its primordial spirit as a Venerable had also been halved, leaving it with only half its power.

“Senior, what if I can cut the divine chains?” Li Qingshan looked at the mountain-like Demon Frog and said seriously.

“These chains are forged from cosmic celestial stone and Starry Sea Cold Iron, inscribed with Venerable runes. They are formidable. Even a Venerable expert can’t break them. And you, an Emperor, dare to boast?” The Demon Frog scoffed, staring at Li Qingshan with wide eyes.

But Li Qingshan noticed a hint of nervous anticipation in the Demon Frog’s eyes.

The Demon Frog’s inner thoughts were different from what he said.

He was also expecting something.

Even though this expectation wasn’t significant.

But… what if?

“No matter what material it’s made of, it can be cut,” Li Qingshan said seriously and firmly.

With 3,000 Rules in hand, Li Qingshan looked at the divine chain, feeling something deep inside.

He could cut it.

This feeling was so strong that Li Qingshan didn’t doubt it.

He was sure he could do it.

“Can you really cut it?” the Demon Frog asked seriously, looking at Li Qingshan.

“Of course!” Li Qingshan nodded seriously once more.

“If you can cut this divine chain, what price do I have to pay?” the Demon Frog asked, his heart excited. Li Qingshan’s determination made him believe more and more.

So, he asked about the price.

Li Qingshan wouldn’t cut the divine chain and free him without a reason; there had to be a price.

“Millions of years ago, the Kunlun Immortal invited you to attack the dam together, and that attempt ended in failure. Now, I invite you to attack the dam again,” Li Qingshan said.

The Demon Frog looked at Li Qingshan and shook his head, saying, “You’re daydreaming.”

“Why do you say that?” Li Qingshan didn’t rush to refute, instead asking curiously.

“The civilization behind this dam is the pinnacle of a first-level civilization history. With just a few small cats and dogs like you, thinking you can break through the dam’s blockade is daydreaming,” the Demon Frog said without hesitation.

First-level civilization history.

Li Qingshan blinked his eyes, noting this term in his mind. He didn’t rush to inquire about this, instead saying, “If several venerable experts join forces to attack the dam, is it possible?”

“Are you talking about those experts who have been lingering around the dam recently, thinking they’re hiding well?” the Demon Frog said disdainfully.

Li Qingshan understood that the people the Demon Frog mentioned were definitely Immortal Northstar and his group.

The Demon Frog, trapped on the dam and in a confined space, might have seemed asleep on the surface, but his keen observation had long noticed Immortal Northstar and his group’s actions of spying on the dam.

“Does senior Demon Frog think they can’t succeed?” Li Qingshan asked directly, frowning slightly.

“Back then, that damned Kunlun Immortal led a large group of experts to attack the dam and shattered it into pieces. They almost succeeded, but they ultimately failed. Do you know why?” Demon Frog asked Li Qingshan.

Sir Li shook his head and humbly inquired, “What’s the reason?”

“Because they were only attacking the dam. They didn’t go deep into the civilization behind the dam to destroy the core,” Demon Frog said coldly.

“What is the core of the civilization behind the dam?” Li Qingshan’s eyes lit up and he immediately asked.

Xia Wuji also listened attentively.

“The reason why the civilization behind the dam could grow to the peak of the first-level civilization history in this desolate star field is because of the Rebirth Spring,” Demon Frog said.

“What is the Rebirth Spring?” Li Qingshan asked immediately.

“Ordinary warriors, after dying in battle, will have their divine souls return to the cosmic void. Even Venerable experts are no exception. But with the Rebirth Spring, as long as a battle occurs near the dam, even if they fall, their divine souls won’t dissipate into the universe but will return to the Rebirth Spring, where they can rest and recover, eventually reforming their bodies and resurrecting.

“Back then, the Kunlun Immortal led a large group to attack the dam, persuading me to join. At that time, I didn’t know that this civilization had the Rebirth Spring. Even with his formidable strength, the Kunlun Immortal killed several Venerable experts, but ultimately, it was a pyrrhic victory. The Venerables he killed could recover and return after a few million years, but the Kunlun Immortal dissipated permanently.”

“That’s why we failed back then.”

“Now, if you want to attack the dam, no matter how many venerable experts and emperors you kill, you can’t change the fact that they will resurrect.

“If you really want to break the dam and breach the blockade, face this civilization head-on, you need to destroy the Rebirth Spring,” the Demon Frog revealed seriously.

After listening, Li Qingshan’s eyes brightened, and he asked the Demon Frog, “Senior, do you know where the Rebirth Spring is?”

The Demon Frog confusedly looked at Li Qingshan and asked, “Why do you ask?”

“I will break the divine chain and free you. In return, you help me destroy the Rebirth Spring. It will be a win-win situation,” Li Qingshan said seriously.

“I only have half my body; I don’t have the strength,” the Demon Frog refused directly.

“Then we’ll get your other half first, then go straight to destroy the Rebirth Spring. If we fight, we fight intensely; if we cause trouble, we cause upheaval. This arrogant civilization behind the dam has been too complacent for too long; it’s time for them to pay the price,” Li Qingshan said firmly.

The Demon Frog looked at Li Qingshan in astonishment and couldn’t help but ask, “Are you serious?”

“Of course!” Li Qingshan raised his head, speaking with determination.

“You’re just an Emperor,” the Demon Frog reminded Li Qingshan.

Li Qingshan merely smiled and then looked at the mysterious chain binding the Demon Frog.

This mysterious chain was extraordinary, something that even a Great Path Weapon couldn’t break. But Li Qingshan reached out and made a slicing motion.

Boom boom boom boom boom…

In an instant, the sound of 3,000 thunderclaps exploded. Under his hand, the interwoven, fused blade energy struck the mysterious chain.

Kacha!

The divine chain shattered instantly. The Demon Frog’s eyes widened in disbelief as he looked at Li Qingshan.

Then, excitedly, he jumped up on one leg, and with a boom, a terrifying aura, like a black cloud destroying a city, enveloped the area above the dam.

“I’m going to get my other half back!” the Demon Frog roared, exuding a formidable presence that shook the starry river.

Seeing this, Li Qingshan smiled happily and said to Xia Wuji, “Let’s go, we need to make a big scene this time!”
