Unstoppable Martial Arts: Starting with brother's wife and young sister Chapter 1008 515: Sudden Upheaval! (Part 4)

"Boom!"

With a surge from the ground, Shi the Third reappeared, albeit with a pallid complexion. On his chest, a crimson handprint served as a stark reminder of Liu Sheng's recent palm strike, its residual Qi wreaking havoc within him.

"I'm safe!"

Wu Guang's body went slack as he descended from the skies, barely able to remain upright. Had Liu Sheng been even a moment slower, his life would have surely been forfeit.

"General!"

Several Dao Realm experts rushed to his side, supporting him. "I am unharmed!"

He couldn't display any weakness before his soldiers, so he brushed off their hands and stood tall, prepared to fight.

"You presume to trespass in the Stone Cave, mere rabble?"

Liu Sheng's gaze swept over Brother Shi and his companions with disdain. "Only two at the Late Stage of Dao Realm Eighth Layer? Are you courting death?"

The others didn't even warrant a second glance from him.

Brother Shi's expression turned grim; a Tree-man Race expert, a formidable force at the Eighth Layer's peak, had just fallen.

Such a loss, even for the might of the Tree-man Race, was deeply felt.

"How much longer will it take?"

"Ten breaths!"

Shi the Third transmitted his reply. He had been in the process of sensing the Holy Land and initiating the portal's opening, but Liu Sheng's timely strike had interrupted him.

Reopening it would not require re-sensing the Holy Land's location.

This would also conserve precious time.

"Excellent, I shall engage them. You focus on opening the portal!"

Brother Shi made an immediate decision. With an Eighth Layer Peak expert already lost, they could not afford to hold back against the Human Race; giving their all was their only recourse.

"You alone?"

Shi the Third's heart constricted. Facing two experts at the very peak of the Eighth Layer, could he truly manage alone?

"You concentrate on opening the portal!"

With that declaration, a verdant mass erupted from him, instantly manifesting as a green-skinned Tree-man before all onlookers.

He was at the Later Stage of Dao Realm Eighth Layer, and what's more... he seemed to be on the verge of breaking through to the peak.

"Brother Shi, I'll leave this one to you!"

The Tenth Elder of the Tree-man Race, who was also his elder brother.

"Half an incense stick's time is not an issue!"

Even when confronted by Liu Sheng, he remained composed, stepping forward as a brilliant green aura radiated from his form.

In an instant!

The two combatants clashed fiercely.

"Defeat them if you can, otherwise, simply keep them occupied!"

Brother Shi commanded, then surged forward to confront Duke Yuan.

The battle reignited with renewed ferocity.

The already fractured space tore open once more.

"Another Dao Realm Eighth Layer expert!"

Chen Xuan exclaimed in astonishment.

The Tree-man Race truly lived up to its reputation as the second most dangerous territory, unleashing so many Eighth Layer experts simultaneously.

"Boom!"

Shi the Third reactivated the transmission channel, his entire being suffused with a blinding white-yellow radiance.

Simultaneously, within the king's palace, the Holy Land began to tremble softly.

Instantly!

Li Mu made his appearance, his brow deeply furrowed as he observed the fragmented Stone Race Sacred Land hanging in the sky.

"Is it about to shatter?"

Little did he know, this Holy Land represented the Great Ancestor of the Stone Race. Shi the Third was currently unifying his will with the ancestor's remnant power, working in tandem to forge a passage through their unique Stone Race methods.

This was a technique previously employed by their Great Ancestor.

It was understood that their Stone Race ancestors had indeed left behind power within the Tree-man Race's domain.

Within Stone Cave City.

The space around Shi the Third began to ripple slowly.

"Hurry!"

"I can't hold on much longer!"

Brother Shi bellowed. If not for the Tree-man Race's remarkable regenerative capabilities, Duke Yuan would have long since obliterated him.

The situation concerning the Tenth Elder was even more dire.

Despite his potent recovery abilities, only his upper body remained intact.

Yet, he showed no sign of fear, firmly pinning Liu Sheng down and preventing him from approaching Shi the Third.

"Five!"

"Four!"

"Not good, Liu Sheng, where is your clone?"

Duke Yuan's face drained of color. With his profound power, he could distinctly sense the spatial channel on the verge of opening.

"Pighead, didn't I tell you it was destroyed last time?!"
