Chapter 1259: This Is a Demon (First update, requesting everything)

When the radiance dissipated, the four Demon Commanders' eyes were wide with rage, still carrying a hint of confusion; severed limbs and arms were scattered everywhere, and without exception, they were all dead.

This was Li Zhangsheng's layout; utilizing the limitations of the Abyss Gate, he only needed to face a few Demon Commanders at a time, which allowed him to gradually deplete Bernama's forces.

However, this was not enough.

Although chaos breeds fools since ancient times, as a Demon Lord, Bernama was no idiot; he would likely only try a few more times at most.

For this reason, Li Zhangsheng's eyes darted around, and he had another idea in his heart.

After a quarter of an hour, Bernama, who had been waiting in vain for a response from his subordinates, understood that there was likely a powerful enemy on the other side, and the four Demon Commanders sent out were in grave danger.

However, he could not easily abandon the plan he had prepared.

On the surface, Bernama was avenging his concubine, the succubus Promia, but in reality, he had discovered that this Abyss Gate was already in precarious condition.

Not long ago, Bernama learned that the Abyss Consciousness and Demonic Qi leaking out through the Abyss Gate had disappeared by more than half for some unknown reason, and he knew that things had become serious.

Bernama valued this Abyss Gate highly; firstly, he could use the Abyss Gate to plunder the souls and resources of the Fairy World; secondly, he could establish merit for occupying the Fairy World as much as possible, thereby pleasing the Abyss and preparing for his promotion to Demon Monarch. Thirdly, the Abyss Gate was extremely important; once the Abyss Gate was damaged or lost, he feared he would lose the favor of the Abyss.

Although the possibility of the third point was minimal—after all, the Fairy World had never destroyed an Abyss Gate in over a hundred years—it did not mean that no effective methods had been researched, so he could not afford to be unprepared.

Therefore, Bernama wanted to settle it once and for all by sacrificing a million demons, including one Demon Commander, to forcibly make the Abyss Gate temporarily upgrade, so that he and his demon army could forcibly enter the Fairy World.

By that time, Bernama was confident that with his strength, unless the Three Sovereigns and Six Emperors of the Fairy World took action, everyone before him would be nothing but clay chickens and pottery dogs.

However, while the plan was good, it could not keep up with the changes; under the purification of the Gate of Light and Darkness, the upgrade of the Abyss Gate was greatly suppressed, and it was unknown whether it could meet Bernama's requirements in the end.

While Bernama was hesitating, suddenly, the Abyss Gate flickered a few times, and five heads with wide-eyed, angry glares rolled in; these were precisely the heads of the two batches of Demon Commanders that had entered one after another.

Demons are always irritable, and Bernama was naturally no exception, especially surrounded by his demon army; to him, this was no different from being slapped in the face in public.

However, Bernama did not act rashly, but waited until the Abyss Gate expanded a little more before sending in more personnel.

This time, Bernama sent out six Demon Commanders, which was also the current maximum limit of the Abyss Gate.

It must be said that in order to achieve success in one battle, these six Demon Commanders were the most capable ones in Bernama's hands; they all possessed noble bloodlines and were existences capable of fighting Demon Emperor Level Spirit Beasts without falling behind.

Unfortunately, while these six Demon Commanders were strong, they could only compare to ordinary Demon Emperor Level Spirit Beasts; with Guang Baitian, Hei Ye, and Kailan easily capable of taking on three at once, plus the other Spirit Beasts and the Hunyuan Heluo Forbidden Array, there was no way out for them.

But this time, Li Zhangsheng actually left them a way out—to be precise, a way out for the two Demon Commanders who were still lingering on after the first wave of long-range attacks.

These two Demon Commanders were an Abyssal Dragon and a Flame Demon, respectively; although they were lucky enough not to die in the first wave of attacks, they were severely wounded and on the verge of death.

The reason they were still alive, besides luck, had to do with them being thick-skinned and fleshy enough.

"Submit or perish?"

Li Zhangsheng hovered in front of them, using the language of demons.

He was not afraid of the two Demon Commanders backlashing; even if the Demon Commander-level Flame Demon self-destructed in front of him, he would not suffer the slightest injury.

"Submit!"

"Submit!"

As Li Zhangsheng's words fell, the two Demon Commanders decisively and eagerly switched sides.

Demons are all selfish, and they were naturally no exception; as long as they could continue to live, they did not mind the act of betrayal at all.

This is what a demon is!

If the demons could unite, I fear the Heavens and Myriad Worlds would have long since become their private property.

The Abyssal Dragon was named Pushikashi, and the Flame Demon was named Pasenka; they held relatively high status on the Abyss 175th Floor.

Li Zhangsheng kept the two of them mainly to have them send false information to Bernama, so that Bernama would send more Demon Commanders.

Pushikashi and Pasenka looked at each other and, without exception, chose to agree.

"Pushikashi, you go first, Pasenka will be left for the next wave! Let it be said in advance, if you cannot lure them out, do not blame this lord for being ruthless!"

The Abyssal Dragon Pushikashi was terrified and hurriedly used a special technique to transmit a message to the Demon Lord Bernama, who was still on the Abyss 175th Floor.

For the sake of his own life, Pushikashi had truly done his best.

"Respected, great Lord Bernama, Pushikashi reporting; after being teleported to the Fairy World, we were ambushed by more than ten Kings; Andi and Patelun were killed in a sneak attack on the spot. Please send reinforcements as soon as possible, Bernama; we cannot hold on much longer. Oh no, Maka is dead too! Lord Bernama, the opportunity is fleeting, please send reinforcements quickly."

Andrew Bernama received the message sent by Pushikashi; because Pushikashi sounded so urgent, he hurriedly sent a few more Demon Commanders.

This time, a total of four Demon Commanders entered, and no other Demon Commanders could enter, indicating that the upper limit had been reached.

"Four more have entered, which means another Demon Commander was killed just now," Bernama thought to himself, then hurriedly shouted to the group of Demon Commanders: "You must keep trying to enter; if you delay the opportunity for battle, this Lord will definitely make you pay."

"Yes, Lord Bernama!"

The group of Demon Commanders naturally dared not disobey; moreover, they were also very greedy for the souls of the Monster Tamers of the Fairy World. As long as they ate enough, they would have a chance to become a Demon Lord like Bernama.

Thus, one after another, they scrambled to try to enter the Abyss Gate, one after another rushing... to their deaths!

"Ah!" "Ah!" "Ah!" "Ah!"

With the cooperation of Pushikashi and Pasenka, in less than five minutes, nearly twenty Demon Commanders were killed by Li Zhangsheng one after another.

Of course, to avoid Bernama reacting, Li Zhangsheng simply slowed down the speed of the slaughter and did not kill multiple Demon Commanders at once again.

Having lost more than twenty Demon Commanders in a row, Bernama could not help but feel a bit worried.

However, when Pasenka's next message arrived, the worry in Bernama's heart was replaced by excitement, and he hurriedly sent out Demon Commanders again.
