Chapter 1631: Exterminating the High-level Demon Monarch
The Prince of Darkness Graz'zt resembles a human in appearance; he wears imperial attire, is tall, handsome, and radiates intense personal charisma, with dark skin and eyes that flicker with an eerie green light.
Aside from the Prince of Darkness Graz'zt, the rest were all mid-to-low-tier Demon Monarchs, posing little threat to Li Zhangsheng.
Before this group of Demon Monarchs could take action, Li Zhangsheng led his Demon Pets and charged straight toward them.
Seeing Li Zhangsheng's lineup of Demon Pets, even the Prince of Darkness Graz'zt felt a strong sense of crisis, let alone the Demon Monarchs, whose strength was significantly weaker.
Moreover, thanks to the Xuan Kun Creation Stele, Li Zhangsheng's strength had not been weakened much, while this group of Demon Monarchs was not as comfortable as they usually were.
Thus, the moment the two sides closed the distance, Li Zhangsheng waved his hand to unleash a streak of Innate Five-Colored Divine Light, which instantly appeared before the Prince of Darkness Graz'zt.
The Prince of Darkness Graz'zt had no time to react before being struck by the Innate Five-Colored Divine Light; the divine light spread instantly, completely enveloping his massive demonic body.
Even the Prince of Darkness Graz'zt could not break free from the restraints of the Innate Five-Colored Divine Light at the first moment.
Suddenly, space shattered, and the massive figure of the Ancestral Dragon charged out; accompanied by a piercing sonic boom, its thick, long Dragon Tail fiercely whipped into the Prince of Darkness Graz'zt, sending him flying as if he were a baseball.
While in flight, the Prince of Darkness Graz'zt struggled with all his might to break free from the restraints of the Innate Five-Colored Divine Light.
However, at this very moment, a frantic sound of Thunder erupted, and Adai charged straight toward the Prince of Darkness Graz'zt.
The Prince of Darkness Graz'zt wanted to dodge, but the Candle Dragon took the opportunity to hit him with a Time Deceleration, causing the movements of the Prince of Darkness Graz'zt to slow down significantly, losing the chance to dodge.
At this critical juncture, a black shield covered in Sharp Spikes appeared in the right hand of the Prince of Darkness Graz'zt, manifesting a black curtain of light that instantly wrapped around him.
Adai brandished his seven sharp claws, using Seven-Minded Control, and landed blow after blow on the light curtain as if in a frenzy.
Having mastered the rule of Annihilation, Adai tore through the energy-based defense almost instantly, revealing the terrified eyes of the Prince of Darkness Graz'zt.
Ssh-la—! Ssh-la—! Ssh-la—!
Amidst the painful screams of the Prince of Darkness Graz'zt, severed limbs and chunks of flesh flew everywhere.
At this moment of crisis, the Prince of Darkness Graz'zt struggled to dodge and protect his vital points, finally managing to hold on and about to break free from Adai's melee range.
Suddenly, a thick bolt of Purple Heaven Divine Thunder surged over and instantly submerged the Prince of Darkness Graz'zt; it was Lin Zu who had seized the opportunity.
Before the Purple Heaven Divine Thunder had even dissipated, the screams of the Prince of Darkness Graz'zt came to an abrupt end, and he fell to the ground like a pile of charred mud.
Adai had already severely wounded the Prince of Darkness Graz'zt, and combined with Lin Zu, who was a veritable nemesis of demons and whose damage to demons ranked at the top among all the Demon Pets, it directly resulted in the Prince of Darkness Graz'zt being killed without having been able to perform much at all.
As the most powerful Demon Monarch in the Endless Abyss, the Prince of Darkness Graz'zt only lasted for a few breaths before meeting his tragic demise.
Through premeditated coordination and cooperation, Li Zhangsheng utilized the forced sealing effect of the Innate Five-Colored Divine Light to directly cause the Prince of Darkness Graz'zt to lose the initiative, and coupled with the tacit cooperation of the Demon Pets, this was the reason why the Prince of Darkness Graz'zt fell so quickly.
If not for the Innate Five-Colored Divine Light, even though Li Zhangsheng would still have been confident in taking down the Prince of Darkness Graz'zt, it certainly would have taken some effort.
On the other side, the other few Demon Monarchs also suffered heavy losses, being besieged by the remaining Demon Pets.
Their numbers were already inferior to the Demon Pets, and with their individual strength being weaker, they could not hold out at all, let alone having any chance to escape.
In less than two minutes, this group of Demon Monarchs had all met their end.
Li Zhangsheng quickly looted the spoils of war while maximizing his perception, keeping a constant watch on the changes in the Abyss Plane.
Following the fall of the Prince of Darkness Graz'zt, some Demon Monarchs who were preparing to come and provide support naturally sensed it, and their hearts were filled with horror.
They never expected that the Prince of Darkness Graz'zt, recognized as one of the strongest Demon Monarchs, would actually fall.
This also caused these Demon Monarchs to become hesitant and indecisive; since even the Prince of Darkness Graz'zt had fallen, they were naturally no match for him either.
However, they were also extremely greedy for the rewards of the Abyss, which was the main reason for their hesitation.
These Demon Monarchs still rationally halted their advance, temporarily turning to wait and see.
At the same time, they began to gather; as long as they could assemble as many Demon Monarchs as possible, they would take action again.
Unfortunately, most of the Demon Monarchs were still in Baator Hell, and there were not many Demon Monarchs left behind; High-level Demon Monarchs were few and far between, and after losing the Prince of Darkness Graz'zt, they could be said to have temporarily lost their backbone.
Before they could gather enough strength, the Gate of Light and Darkness had already taken the first step by devouring all the Demonic Qi and Abyss Consciousness.
The next moment, Li Zhangsheng's Secret Realm emerged on this Abyss Plane.
The border regions of the two great worlds made contact, and as a large amount of World Power was continuously consumed, they began to merge.
The massive roots of the World Tree quickly plunged into the merging Abyss Plane, greatly accelerating the fusion of the two worlds.
Not long after, the fusion of the two worlds was completed, and the area of Li Zhangsheng's Secret Realm more than doubled.
Although it was not a case of a snake trying to swallow an elephant, swallowing an Abyss Plane larger than itself still caused some negative effects on the Secret Realm.
Fortunately, there was the World Tree, otherwise it would not have been easy to digest, and with the addition of a large amount of World Power, the negative effects had been reduced to the lowest point.
After completing the fusion, Li Zhangsheng immediately had the Secret Realm perform a Space Shift to leave this place of trouble.
Li Zhangsheng did not leave, nor did he head to the next target; instead, he rode the Ancestral Dragon to wander through several nearby Abyss Planes, actively wiping out those gathering Demon Monarchs.
After easily wiping out one gathering point of Demon Monarchs, the Demon Monarchs at the other gathering points received the news and immediately scattered like birds and beasts.
This is what demons are; they always carry out the philosophy of egoism.
Li Zhangsheng pursued them for a distance and killed a few more Demon Monarchs before he began to head toward the next Abyss Plane.
Rather than calling it a target, it was more of a lure, a lure to entice the Demon Monarchs.
His Secret Realm still needed some time to adapt and could not continue to merge for the time being, otherwise the Secret Realm would produce huge turmoil, which would be detrimental to its later advancement.
Additionally, to better execute his plan, he had to continue to weaken the top-tier power of the Endless Abyss.
Taking advantage of the fact that the Blood War was still ongoing, Li Zhangsheng had to seize this opportunity to grow as much as possible in a short period of time.
