While Li Qingshan was still observing, Demon Frog took action.
Boom!
Despite having only half a body, the Demon Frog was still formidable. The anger repressed for millions of years erupted fiercely. It brought forth a vast, pitch-black expanse, sweeping out and piercing through the cosmic void, overwhelming everything, shaking the ten directions, and collapsing the starlit sky.
“Lawson, today you will die!”
“Years ago, you split me in two. Today, I will tear you to pieces,” the Demon Frog roared, its body enveloped in starlight, thousands of threads of Dao shimmering like a silver waterfall, making it appear as a peerless fiend waging war across realms.
The half-bodied Demon Frog exuded an unparalleled battle intent, its form like a towering mountain, now possessing an awe-inspiring force, ready to confront Lawson like an ancient god reborn.
“I could split you in two back then, and I can do it again today. Don’t think that just because you are a rare species, I wouldn’t dare kill you,” Lawson’s voice was cold, steady, and composed. Standing beneath the starry sky, he was immovable.
The blood-red spear in his hand continued to emit a chilling killing intent.
“Hahaha, split me again? Who do you think you are? Just a Venerable, you’re nothing. Back then, I was just in my juvenile form, and you all struggled against me. Now, killing you is as easy as lifting a finger!” the Demon Frog responded coldly, full of arrogance. With its half-body, drenched in blood, it looked like a demon returned from Hell, seeking vengeance.
At that moment, the surge of killing intent was overwhelming, causing cracks to appear in the starry sky. A powerful aura like a breached dam exploded forth, shattering the cosmic expanse. The Demon Frog charged forward rapidly, splitting the vast starry sky in an instant.
“Kill!”
The Demon Frog roared, its voice swallowing mountains and rivers, making the starry sky tremble with its advance. It was terrifying to the extreme, like a massive demonic star crashing down.
Lawson also shouted, his body radiating the glow of a blood-red sun, his aura sweeping across the six directions, overwhelming everything in its path.
The battle between the Venerables was on the verge of eruption.
The Demon Frog unleashed its full might against Lawson, its terrifying aura crashing into Lawson’s black metallic divine armor, producing a clanging sound, as if tens of thousands of heavenly swords were striking it.
Boom boom boom!
At that moment, the sky collapsed around them, the starry sky split apart, and the dark universe was cleaved open, turning into a desolate wasteland with chaos and mist emerging from the ruptures.
This impact was extremely terrifying. An ordinary Emperor would be obliterated, their bones and body destroyed, if they even grazed such an attack.
Yet, in the face of this peerless assault, Lawson remained unharmed. Clad in armor, he stood firm under the starry sky.
“In those years, keeping you alive had now yielded results. I would kill you and then study you carefully. This would surely help me advance further on the Supreme Path,” Lawson had said, his entire body revealing only a pair of eyes, which glowed intensely. His gaze was cold, and his words were full of arrogant confidence.
Boom!
At that moment, Lawson had radiated divine power, possessing a sense of supreme dominance and a condescending attitude toward the world. He had charged forward, wielding a blood-colored spear with one hand.
The Demon Frog hadn’t retreated either, its aura growing immensely, burning like a raging fire. It had brought down its only claw to meet the blood-colored spear head-on.
The Demon Frog’s claw had been covered in scales, incredibly tough. In that ultimate clash, it had withstood the blood-colored spear, with their impacts creating sharp, resonating sounds.
Boom!
At that moment, the civilization behind the dam had trembled. The two figures had shone brilliantly, their murderous aura sweeping across all directions, tearing apart the chaos, their battle intent piercing through the universe.
The battle between the two Venerables had spelled disaster for the civilization behind the dam. Even a wisp of Venerable’s aura could crush the stars, and at that moment, countless miles had been destroyed by their conflict.
But Lawson hadn’t cared.
No matter how many people had died, it hadn’t compared to the immense benefit of killing the Demon Frog.
That civilization had grown in such a brutal yet competitive environment.
Thump!
The clash of metal reverberated as the blood-colored spear and black scales collided thousands of times in an instant, moving too fast for the eye to follow. Even an ordinary Emperor wouldn’t be able to keep up with such speed.
This was a peak battle between Venerables. Li Qingshan witnessed it for the first time, managing to follow their rhythm and watching in awe. Both the Demon Frog and Lawson were giving their all to overpower each other. The energy they unleashed, even for a moment, illuminated the universe, making all the stars fade in comparison.
This was the power of a Venerable.
At that moment, the Demon Frog roared, “Devour the Heavens and Earth!”
With only half of its body, the Demon Frog opened its massive maw.
This was a truly monstrous mouth.
In the next second, an incredibly powerful suction force erupted, trapping Lawson and dragging him toward the Demon Frog’s mouth.
Lawson was shocked. He hadn’t anticipated this move from the Demon Frog. He exerted all his strength, wielding his blood-colored spear with immense divine power, trying to break free.
But it was futile.
The Demon Frog’s gaping maw was intent on devouring Lawson whole.
“I’ll break through your body directly,” Lawson thought, reversing his strategy. With a low roar, purple mist surged around him, and the black metal armor enveloped him. He charged forward like a colossal star, delivering a devastating attack that shattered the starry sky and brought forth the Chaos mist.
Lawson intended to shatter the remaining half of the Demon Frog’s body.
But in the next second, to everyone’s astonishment, after swallowing Lawson, the Demon Frog began to chew without hesitation.
Crunch! Crunch! Crunch!
The sound of the chewing was terrifying. The mysterious armor that protected Roson was consumed entirely by the Demon Frog. To the disbelief of onlookers, the Venerable expert Roson was forcefully devoured by the Demon Frog.
At that moment, several other Venerable experts emerged from the civilization behind the dam, attempting to rescue Lawson, unable to accept that he had been eaten alive by the Demon Frog.
“Damned creature, stop!”
“Let go of our Ninth Brother!”
“After millions of years, who knew this Demon Frog had such a capability? Damn it!”
The other Venerables were extremely anxious, watching Lawson being continuously devoured. They found it hard to accept.
Lawson was also desperately trying to save himself.
As his armor was bitten through and his flesh consumed, his primordial spirit escaped, attempting to flee. But in the next second, the Demon Frog’s primordial spirit, mirroring its body with only half remaining, appeared and accurately bit down on Lawson’s primordial spirit, starting to chew.
Chewing both the body and the primordial spirit, the Demon Frog directly annihilated Lawson.
The other Venerables were always a step too late.
By the time they surrounded the Demon Frog, its primordial spirit had already merged with its body. The Demon Frog opened its blood-red maw, its large tongue lolling out, and laughed heartily.
“After millions of years, I’ve finally had a feast. The energy from a Venerable is indeed very satisfying,” the Demon Frog said contentedly.
The other Venerables were furious, their faces dark with anger as they glared at the Demon Frog.
It was too brutal!
Everyone who witnessed this scene felt a strong impression of the Demon Frog.
Brutality.
Behind the Demon Frog, Li Qingshan watched with fervent eyes. To him, there was nothing wrong with brutality. In this cold and dark universe, the law of the jungle prevailed—only the strong survived.
Kindness had no value in the universe.
He watched the Demon Frog make its move, devouring its opponent, utterly captivated by the entire process.
It was his first time witnessing a battle between Venerables.
As expected, it was incredibly powerful.
This only strengthened Li Qingshan’s resolve to break through the dam, enter the universe, and attain the Venerable level.
Suddenly, a line of words appeared in front of him.
[Your serious observation activated Maxed-Level Comprehension, and you’ve comprehended Devour the Heavens and Earth!]
Li Qingshan looked at the message in surprise.
He hadn’t anticipated that his maxed-level comprehension would be so powerful and effective, allowing him to understand the Demon Frog’s magnum opus just by watching.
Without hesitation, Li Qingshan accepted the comprehension.
The Demon Frog, with only half its body and half of its primordial spirit, executed this move and promptly killed a Venerable. Li Qingshan had no reason not to learn the lesson.
After receiving it, a vast amount of information about devouring heaven and earth, as well as insights into cultivation, appeared in Li Qingshan’s mind.
Li Qingshan began practicing Devour the Heavens and Earth, conducting his first cultivation within his own body.
Meanwhile, the Demon Frog, at this moment, was surrounded by three Venerables, their intent to kill palpable.
At the same time, in the civilized world behind the dam, five Venerables were awakening.
