Unstoppable Martial Arts: Starting with brother's wife and young sister Chapter 1009 516: Earth-Shattering Strike!

Liu Sheng shot him a venomous glare.

Chen Xuan arched an eyebrow, was this a warning for him to mind his own business?

While others might not sense it, with Liu Sheng's clone present, how could he possibly miss his whereabouts?

"Did he do that intentionally?"

Chen Xuan’s gaze fell upon the Tenth Elder of the Tree-man Race, an individual he had nearly obliterated, only to see him consistently restored.

"On purpose!"

"What is he trying to achieve?"

Chen Xuan found himself utterly perplexed at this juncture.

"Three!"

Shi the Third bellowed.

"Get out of the way!"

Duke Yuan suddenly erupted in a terrifying crimson light, instantly bathing the entire outer city in a blood-red hue.

Path of Slaughter!

The aura intensified once more!

Transforming his palm into a blade, he instantly bisected Eleven!

Filled with terror, Eleven immediately abandoned half of his body, rapidly increasing the distance between them.

"Shi the Third, I can't hold on any longer."

Upon witnessing this!

Shi the Third steeled his resolve and fractured the Crystal Stone on his chest in two, one piece shattering with a loud crack.

"Activate!"

Utilizing half of the Crystal Stone granted him two crucial counts of time.

"Retreat!"

Everyone instantly disengaged from their adversaries. The Tenth Elder detonated the recovered portion of his body, momentarily impeding Liu Sheng's advance.

"Go!"

The white-yellow light emanating from Shi the Third enveloped them all, piercing through the passage.

"Die!"

A colossal blood blade descended from the heavens, striking the exact spot where Shi the Third had stood.

"Boom!"

The entire outer city was cleaved in twain by this devastating blow!

A chasm of unfathomable depth, stretching for dozens of miles, yawned open before them.

"So powerful!"

Chen Xuan's heart pounded, but it was too late; resistance was futile!

Meanwhile, Duke Yuan's eyes burned with a blood-red intensity, his body convulsed, and a chilling intent to kill radiated from him.

This was the Path of Slaughter.

Yet, even at full power, he struggled to maintain control.

"Calm yourself!"

Liu Sheng appeared behind him, placing a hand on his back. Spiritual power surged into Duke Yuan's body like a tidal wave, aiding his stabilization.

After a brief period, Duke Yuan's composure returned.

"If you wield this power so recklessly, aren't you afraid of becoming a mere puppet?"

Liu Sheng inquired with a cold tone.

"What now?"

Duke Yuan did not linger on the admonishment. With those individuals having rejoined the Stone Race, even if Li Mu were dealt with, the Stone Race would emerge even more formidable.

The Tree-man Race's regenerative capabilities were simply too potent.

"No need for concern, two cultivators at the eighth layer cannot alter the greater outcome."

Liu Sheng appeared unbothered.

"The Tree-man Race is merely difficult to kill; their offensive power at the same cultivation level is unremarkable. What is there to fear?"

"You remain here to stand guard; the Stone Cave must not be breached."

"Currently, the Hidden Forest Abyss poses the greatest peril!"

"Is the situation there truly so dire?"

Duke Yuan's countenance grew grim. He had merely permitted Guan Yao to cultivate the Path of Slaughter on the battlefield, never anticipating such a catastrophic outcome.

"What do you surmise!"

"Duke Liu is already positioned at the Hidden Forest Abyss."

"Zhan Tian is being driven to the brink of madness by Hidden Kill!"

"I am extinguishing fires across the board."

Liu Sheng cast a glance at him, acknowledging that he bore responsibility for initiating these events.

However, the ultimate strategy was conceived by their esteemed Majesty.

"But rest assured, Liu Hong is currently deploying the Celestial Fire Array, specifically designed to counter the Tree-man Race. It should mitigate the problem significantly."

"As for this location, maintain vigilance."

With his final words, Duke Yuan withdrew his clone.

"Regarding your clone, it is disappointingly weak, merely mid-eighth layer. It should at least be late stage, enabling it to withstand a peak-level opponent for a short duration."

Duke Yuan’s gaze bored into him coldly, a palpable desire to strike him down with a blade evident.

Despite being a mere difference in cultivation stage, the difficulty in achieving it was soul-crushing.

Not everyone possessed the extraordinary talent of himself and Zhan Tian, whose clones reached the peak of the late eighth layer; Zhan Tian, in particular, had both his main body and clone at the late eighth layer.

Truly abnormal!

Chen Xuan's spiritual power gradually subsided.

"What a formidable blade!"

His eyes narrowed slightly, the memory of that singular strike still vivid in his mind. Even a cultivator at the eighth peak of the Dao Realm would falter against it.

He was utterly astounded by Duke Yuan's devastating attack.

"Is this the Path of Slaughter?"

He whispered to himself.

In comparison, Guan Yao appeared like a mere child playing pretend, utterly outmatched.

However, the Tree-man Race's recuperative prowess was horrifying. Without a decisive finishing blow, they were akin to cockroaches, exceedingly difficult to eradicate.

This explained why two cultivators at the late eighth Dao Realm could delay Liu Sheng for several breaths.

Ordinarily, a cultivator at the eighth Dao Realm facing a master at the old eighth peak would be defeated within a handful of exchanges.

"Their offensive power is merely somewhat lacking."

Yet, this made sense; otherwise, this particular race would be far too overpowered.

"Proceed to Bright Moon Mansion and await my arrival!"

Just then, Liu Sheng's voice reached Chen Xuan's ears.

Yet, he felt no surprise, for while others might fail to locate him, Liu Sheng certainly could, especially since the clone was in his possession.

However... "The Chief Eunuch senses something is amiss!"

....

Stone Race Royal City.

Shi the Third and his entourage materialized without warning.

Confronting his foe head-on, Fury surged, and without a single word, he lunged towards Li Mu.

"Curses, how did they return!"

Li Mu unleashed his spiritual power whip, striking Shi the Third repeatedly. However, the bloodthirsty Shi disregarded the potential damage to his consciousness sea.

Pure hatred had stripped him of all reason.

Now, a singular objective consumed him: obliterate Li Mu!

Even if it meant mutual destruction, it would be a worthwhile price.

For if Li Mu perished, the Stone Race would truly be free to be the Stone Race.

"Bang bang bang..."

The grand hall trembled, its structure groaning under the shockwaves of their fierce battle, appearing on the verge of collapse.

Eleven observed the chaotic scene with a neutral expression.

"Eleven, shouldn't we intervene and put a stop to this?"
