The Longevity Family: Starting from the Foundation Establishment Ancestor

The Bone Dragon cruised smoothly through the Burning Sky Star Sea, moving away from the area of ​​the Molten Core that was still slowly collapsing.

Han Mu sat cross-legged in the center of the quiet room, with the fist-sized core of the Molten Heart floating in front of him. Its surface was interwoven with red gold and dark gray patterns, emitting terrifying high temperature and chaotic energy fluctuations.

Han Mu formed hand seals, and the gray-white power of time and the faint Daoist aura of origin intertwined to form a net, firmly enveloping the core and beginning to peel away the "reversed" power of time that had been corrupted by the erosion of time.

The process was very slow. The gray-black polluting energy was like a leech, deeply entangled with the core's fire elemental origin. Each strand had to be carefully peeled away to avoid damaging the core's origin.

Han Mu brought up the system panel and quickly scanned it.

Name: Han Mu

[True Realm: Late Stage of Taiyi Jade Immortal (Peak, Slight Backlash)]

[Time Rule: 92%]

[Status: In the process of removing the core contamination from the Molten Core, estimated to take six hours]

[Celestial Aura: -4500 points]

[System Notification: Clues to the "Burning Heaven Fire Craftsman" inheritance have been detected within the core. Analysis progress 15%... Decontamination removal will help reveal the clues]

Han Mu closed his eyes and concentrated, the power of time seeping into the depths of his core like fine threads.

Three hours later, the last wisp of gray-black polluting energy was forcibly extracted, condensing into a constantly twisting black ball of energy in Han Mu's palm, emitting a nauseating stench of decay.

Han Mu snorted coldly, and the power of origin surged out, causing the "rebellious" polluting energy to vanish into nothingness silently.

The core of the Molten Core has now completely transformed into a pure crimson gold color, with its temperature restrained and fine flame patterns appearing on its surface, faintly forming a star map.

"It's done."

Han Mu opened his eyes, reached out and grasped the core, probing it with his divine sense.

boom.

A vast and ancient thought surged into Han Mu's sea of ​​consciousness; it was a fragment of memory spanning hundreds of thousands of years.

In the scene, a burly old man with red hair and beard, standing nine feet tall, is forging something with starlight at the core of a huge lava star. The furnace fire reflects the old man's focused face, and his eyes seem to be able to see through the essence of all things.

"I am the Heavenly Firesmith, the third disciple of Master Ou Yezi, ordered to guard this starry sea and forge the 'Heart of Molten Fire' to suppress the gate..."

"Those destined to obtain this core in future generations will know the location of the 'Eternal Furnace.' Holding the core as proof, they can enter the furnace, receive my weapon-forging inheritance, and also learn the whereabouts of the sixth fragment of 'that thing'..."

"The coordinates are..."

An extremely complex set of star coordinates was imprinted into Han Mu's mind, involving 360 star nodes, 72 spatial folds, and finally pointing to an absolute forbidden zone in the deepest part of the Burning Heaven Star Sea that was not even recorded on a star map.

The thought also included a short description of "that thing," which referred to the sixth fragment of the Coffin of Origin, the tail section of the coffin.

Han Mu withdrew his divine sense, a glint of light flashing in his eyes.

The Heavenly Firesmith, a disciple of Ou Yezi, the Eternal Furnace, the sixth fragment.

The value of this clue far exceeded expectations.

A knock came from outside the quiet room, and Han Li's voice rang out.

"My lord, we have traveled three million miles from Molten Core. What should we do next?"

Han Mu got up and opened the door. Han Li, Zhou Meng, Luo Feng, Liu Ruyan and others were waiting outside.

"Come in and speak."

The group entered the quiet room, and Han Mu placed the purified core of the Molten Heart on the table, briefly explaining the coordinate information and inheritance clues he had obtained.

"The Eternal Forge, the ancestral home of the Heavenly Firesmiths, and the sixth fragment." Zhou Meng's eyes flashed with excitement. "My lord, the timing is perfect."

Han Li stared at the star pattern that appeared on the surface of the core, his brows furrowing slightly.

"My lord, the area these coordinates point to is one of the most famous forbidden zones in the Burning Heaven Star Sea, known in ancient texts as the 'Forbidden Zone of the Sea of ​​Fire.' It is said that even Great Luo Immortals dare not venture into it easily, as the spatial structure there is extremely unstable and filled with eternally extinguished chaotic fire."

Luo Feng scratched his head.

"The Chaos Fire, is that thing very powerful? It's even more intense than your grayish-white flames, my lord."

Han Mu shook his head.

"The Chaos Fire is a primordial flame that survived from the creation of the world, containing the laws of chaos. My current Origin Fire is still in its infancy, and it would indeed be troublesome if we encountered it head-on."

"Should we still go?" Luo Feng shrank back. "That doesn't sound good."

Liu Ruyan said softly.

"Fortune favors the bold. Now that our lord has obtained the coordinates, it would be a pity not to explore them. Moreover, the sixth fragment is of utmost importance."

Zhou Meng suddenly pressed his forehead; the Shi Shou mark was slightly hot.

"My lord, I sense an extremely ancient and faint fluctuation of time that resonates with these coordinates. This place should also have some connection with the lineage of the Time Guardians."

Han Li pondered for a moment, then secretly transmitted his voice to Han Mu.

"My lord, the coordinates should be accurate, but the danger is indeed extremely high. I suggest we return to Myriad Heavenly City first to replenish some special array plates and talismans to deal with the Chaos Flame and spatial disorder, and make full preparations before setting off again."

Han Mu tapped his fingers lightly on the table, his gaze sweeping over the star map on the core surface.

"No, let's go straight there."

Everyone was taken aback.

Han Mu said calmly.

"The Time-Shattering Eclipse will surely be noticed by the Reverse Time Alliance. Although they don't know that we have obtained clues to the inheritance of the Heavenly Fire Craftsman, the changes in the Heart of Molten Fire cannot be concealed. Soon, experts will come to investigate. If we return to the Myriad Manifestations City now, we may expose our whereabouts."

"Although the Eternal Furnace is dangerous, it is also the best place to hide. I can obtain inheritance and fragments there, improve my strength, and when I come out again, even if a Grand Luo Immortal from the Reverse Time Alliance comes, he may not be able to do anything to me."

"Moreover."

Han Mu grasped the core of the Molten Core.

"I have this as a token. Entering the Eternal Forge should grant me the protection left behind by the Firesmith of the Heavens, greatly reducing the danger."

Decisive and ruthless, without any hesitation—that's Han Mu's style.

Han Li nodded.

"My lord, your considerations are thorough. I will now adjust the Bone Dragon's course, with our destination the Eternal Forge."

"Wait a minute," Han Mu called out to Han Li.

"Activate all the concealment arrays on the Bone Dragon to the maximum to erase all traces of its voyage. We're not in a hurry; it's okay to be a little slow. The key is to remain hidden."

"Yes."

Han Li accepted the order and left.

Luo Feng chuckled.

"My lord, do you think that the legacy of the Heavenly Fire Craftsman includes a treasure hammer that can kill a Great Luo Immortal with a single blow?"

Han Mu glanced at Luo Feng.

"Maybe, but only if you can lift it."

Everyone laughed, and the atmosphere in the quiet room became much more relaxed.

Han Mu gazed at the deep starry sky outside the porthole, a profound light flashing in his eyes.

The Eternal Forge, the legacy of the Skyfire Craftsmen, the sixth fragment.

The harvest this time may be greater than expected.

But danger always coexists with opportunity.

The Bone Dragon changed direction and quietly headed towards the deepest part of the Burning Sky Star Sea, a forbidden zone known as the Sea of ​​Fire Forbidden Zone.
