The Longevity Family: Starting from the Foundation Establishment Ancestor

The Bone Dragon stopped at the edge of the chaotic region, not venturing in rashly. Han Mu asked Han Li to first survey the area around the Temple of Time.

Han Li manipulated the detection array, and after a moment his expression turned serious.

"My lord, the Temple of Time is protected by a Time Array of extremely high quality, at least at the Great Luo level, and it is heavily guarded. There are over a hundred peak Taiyi cultivators alone, and at least five Great Luo Loose Immortals. Among them is the aura of a peak Great Luo Loose Immortal, who should be a general under the Time Venerable."

"Five Great Luo Immortals and one Great Luo Peak Immortal, this lineup is quite luxurious." Luo Feng clicked his tongue in amazement.

"We definitely can't force our way in. The four of us combined can't beat a peak Great Luo Immortal. We need to think of another way," Zhou Meng said.

Han Mu fell into deep thought. They had to enter the Temple of Time, as the last fragment was inside, but how to get in was the problem.

A direct assault is out of the question, and a forceful attack won't work either; the only option is to outsmart them.

"Han Li, can you break the Time Array?"

"Yes, but it will take time, and cracking it will alert the garrison, which will then surround us," Han Li analyzed.

"In other words, we only have one chance. We must break through the great formation, rush into the Temple of Time as quickly as possible, grab the fragment, and run," Zhou Meng said.

"That's right, but the premise is that we can break in and get the fragment. The fragment is definitely in Shi Zun's hands. Shi Zun is a Great Luo Golden Immortal. We can't beat him." Han Li shook his head.

"We have to fight even if we can't win; this is our only chance." Han Mu's eyes were resolute.

"My lord, I have an idea," Zhou Meng suddenly said.

"explain."

"There is a secret technique in the Time Guardian tradition that can temporarily obscure the perception of the Time Array, allowing us to infiltrate without alerting the guards. However, it can only be maintained for the time it takes for an incense stick to burn; after that, we will be discovered."

"One incense stick's time is enough. Han Li, you study the weak points of the Time Array. We'll infiltrate through those weak points. Zhou Meng, prepare the secret technique. Luo Feng, you're in charge of providing backup. If things go wrong, immediately activate the Bone Dragon to come and get us."

"Yes," the three replied.

Han Mu continued to comprehend the Time Dust Inheritance, and the Time Law had reached 99.9%, just one step away from breaking through to the Great Luo.

But this step is a dead end; no matter how hard I try to understand it, I can't break through.

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

Name: Han Mu

[True Realm: Peak of Taiyi Jade Immortal]

[Time Rule: 99.9%]

Status: Normal

[Celestial Aura: -3000 points]

[System Notification: 85% of the Time Dust Inheritance has been digested; the remaining 15% needs to be comprehended through actual combat.]

[Mission: Breakthrough to the Great Luo (In Progress)]

"It seems the only way to break through is through actual combat," Han Mu thought, closing the panel and making a decision.

Three days later, Han Li found the weak point of the Time Array, located on the east side of the temple. The defenses there were relatively weak, with only three Taiyi Peak experts patrolling.

Zhou Meng had also prepared his secret technique, but casting it required a large amount of time power, and with his current cultivation level, he could only maintain it for half an incense stick's time.

"Half an incense stick's time is running out, but there's no other way but to give it our all," Zhou Meng said through gritted teeth.

"Don't worry, with me here, half an incense stick's time will be enough." Han Mu patted Zhou Meng's shoulder.

As night fell, the Chaos Region was devoid of sun and moon, but the Time Temple was surrounded by arrays simulating the changes of day and night. It was the dead of night, and the guards were relatively lax.

The Bone Dragon silently approached the weak point on the eastern side of the Time Array, where Han Mu and his three companions lay in wait in the void.

"Now!" Zhou Meng shouted, forming a hand seal. An invisible wave spread out, covering an area of ​​a hundred feet in radius.

The operation of the Time Array paused for a moment, but it quickly resumed, and that was enough.

"Let's go." Han Mu led the three of them, transforming into four streaks of light, and entered the Time Array through its weakest point without alerting any guards.

After entering the formation, the four concealed their auras and stealthily made their way towards the core area of ​​the temple.

The Temple of Time is very large, divided into three layers: the outer layer is where the guards and servants live, the middle layer is the training ground for the generals and core disciples under the Time Lord, and the inner layer is the Time Lord's residence and treasure vault.

The last fragment must be in the inner layer.

The four of them carefully avoided the patrolling guards and soon arrived at the boundary between the middle and inner levels.

There was a gate here, tightly closed, with two guards standing in front of it, both of whom were at the early stage of the Great Luo Loose Immortal realm.

"Two Great Luo Immortals, this is a bit troublesome." Han Mu frowned.

"My lord, I'll draw them away," Luo Feng volunteered.

"No, it's too dangerous for you to go alone. Let's all four of us go together and finish this quickly," Han Mu decided.

The four attacked simultaneously: Han Mu attacked the Great Luo Immortal on the left, Zhou Meng and Han Li attacked the one on the right, and Luo Feng was responsible for finishing off the remaining enemies.

The two Great Luo Loose Immortals reacted extremely quickly and launched a counterattack instantly, but they did not expect that the strength of Han Mu and his group of four far exceeded that of their peers. In particular, Han Mu's time law was already infinitely close to that of a Great Luo, and his combat power was comparable to that of a mid-stage Great Luo Loose Immortal.

In just three moves, the Great Luo Immortal on the left was killed by Han Mu, his soul not even escaping.

On the other side, Zhou Meng and Han Li joined forces and also killed the Great Luo Immortal on the right, but the commotion was a bit too much and alerted the inner guards.

"Damn it, we've been discovered! Quick, rush in!" Han Mu made a decisive move, blasting open the door with a palm strike, and the four of them rushed into the inner layer.

The inner layer was heavily guarded, and more than a dozen Great Luo Loose Immortals rushed over. The leader was a woman in red, whose aura was clearly that of a peak Great Luo Loose Immortal.

"You audacious madman, how dare you trespass into the temple! Seize him!" the woman in red shouted, and more than a dozen Great Luo Immortals attacked simultaneously.

Han Mu's expression changed. With so many Grand Luo Immortals, a direct confrontation was definitely not an option.

"Split up and meet at the treasure vault." After Han Mu finished speaking, he turned and ran, and Zhou Meng and the other two also chose a direction to escape.

The woman in red sneered, not giving chase, but instead taking out a mirror and reflecting it in the direction Han Mu had fled.

"If time could turn back, where would you run to?"

Han Mu's image appeared in the mirror. No matter how Han Mu changed direction, the woman in red could accurately find his location.

Han Mu also noticed it, stopped and looked at the woman in red who had caught up.

"As expected of a general under the command of the Time Lord, you have some skill, but you're not enough to capture me."

Han Mu formed hand seals, and the laws of time were activated at full power. The flow of time around him began to change, accelerating in some places and decelerating in others, forming a chaotic time domain.

The woman in red rushed into the Time Realm, her body swayed, and her movements became sluggish.

"The Time Domain? You actually mastered the Time Domain. No wonder you dared to storm the temple." A hint of surprise flashed in the red-clad woman's eyes, but she quickly regained her composure.

"But do you think you can trap me like this? How naive."

The woman in red formed a hand seal, and a red sun appeared behind her, radiating intense light that gradually melted the realm of time.

"Great Sun Burning Heaven Technique, you are Burning Heaven Great Luo." Han Mu recognized the woman in red as Burning Heaven Great Luo, one of the three generals under Shi Zun, whose strength was second only to Shi Zun.

"Now that you know my name, why don't you surrender?" Burning Heaven Great Luo sneered, the red sun shone even brighter, and the time domain began to collapse.

Han Mu's expression was solemn. The strength of the Burning Heaven Grand Luo was far greater than that of the black-robed man; he couldn't defeat him.

"It seems I have no choice but to use my trump card." Han Mu gritted his teeth, took out seven fragments, and prepared to forcibly fuse them.

But at that moment, something unexpected happened.

A loud bang came from the depths of the Temple of Time, and then the entire temple began to shake, as if something was about to emerge.

Burning Heaven Great Luo's expression changed, and he turned to look into the depths of the temple.

"Oh no, the seal has loosened! We need to get back quickly!"

Ignoring Han Mu, the Burning Heaven Great Luo led his men into the depths of the temple.

Han Mu was stunned. The seal was loosening. What seal?

"My lord, look over there!" Zhou Meng suddenly transmitted his voice.

Han Mu looked in the direction Zhou Meng pointed and saw a golden light shooting out from the depths of the temple, within which a fragment could be vaguely seen floating.

The last piece of debris.

Han Mu's eyes lit up. It was truly a case of "searching high and low without finding it, only to have it come to him effortlessly."

"Let's go get the fragments." Han Mu transformed into a streak of light and rushed towards the golden light.

But just as they reached halfway, the golden light suddenly exploded, and a huge figure emerged from it, radiating a chilling aura.

"Time Lord, you can't hold me here, I'm out."
