The Longevity Family: Starting from the Foundation Establishment Ancestor

Upon hearing Han Mu's words, Phantom's eyes flashed with surprise and doubt. After a moment of silence, she said coldly.

"Do you know what level the Third Elder is? He's a late-stage Grand Luo Golden Immortal, with seven protectors under his command, three of whom are loyal to him. You're just a mid-stage Grand Luo Loose Immortal, what can you do to kill him?"

"Cultivation level doesn't represent everything. I can kill a Grand Luo Golden Immortal with a Chaos Body, so I'm confident I can kill the Third Elder. As for the seven guardians, four of them are opportunists. There are only three I really need to deal with, which isn't difficult," Han Mu said calmly.

Meiying's pupils contracted. She had never heard of the news that he had killed a Great Luo Golden Immortal in a Chaos Body, but judging from Ying Sanqian's respectful demeanor, it didn't seem fake.

"You claim you can cure the Soul-Devouring Poison, how can you prove it?"

Han Mu stretched out his hand, and the laws of time flowed in his palm, transforming into a golden vortex.

"The essence of the Soul-Devouring Poison is the erosion of time. The Third Elder used the laws of time to mix with the deadly poison and planted it in your soul. It will flare up every three days, causing unbearable pain. Am I right?"

Phantom trembled. Han Mu's words were exactly right. She did indeed have to endure the pain of her soul being eroded every three days, a pain that was worse than death.

"Do you have a solution?"

"The laws of time can cure the poison of time. I have mastered the ability to reverse time, which can reverse the poison in your soul back to a state before you were poisoned. However, you need to completely relax your mind and not resist in the slightest," Han Mu said.

Phantom hesitated. Relaxing her mind was tantamount to entrusting her life to the other party. If Han Mu had malicious intentions, she would surely die.

"You may not believe me, but this is your only chance. The Third Elder's Chaos Array will be activated in three days. At that time, all members of the Reverse Time Alliance will be sacrificed, including you. Rather than waiting to die, you might as well take a gamble," Han Mu said calmly.

Phantom took a deep breath, a resolute glint in her eyes.

"Fine, I'll believe you this once, but if you dare to lie to me, I'll destroy my own soul to take you down with me."

"Don't worry, I have no reason to lie to you. Even with Ying Sanqian's cultivation completely destroyed, I can still protect him. How much more so would I be able to protect someone as talented as you?" Han Mu said.

Without further hesitation, the phantom sat down cross-legged and completely relaxed.

Han Mu formed hand seals, and the laws of time surged into the Phantom's body, wandering through its soul to find the mark of the Soul-Devouring Poison. Time reversal was activated, and the poison subsided at a speed visible to the naked eye.

A quarter of an hour later, Phantom opened her eyes, feeling an unprecedented sense of ease in her soul; the Soul-Devouring Poison had truly been cured.

"The Soul-Devouring Poison has been neutralized. Now we can discuss cooperation." Han Mu withdrew his hand, his face slightly pale. The time reversal had taken a considerable toll.

Phantom stood up and bowed deeply to Han Mu.

"Many thanks to Senior Han for detoxifying me. I am willing to serve you like a dog."

"No need to be polite, it's just a matter of mutual benefit. I need the Third Elder's Chaos Array formation diagram, the more detailed the better," Han Mu said.

Phantom nodded, took out a jade slip, and handed it to Han Mu.

"This is the complete layout of the Chaos Array, including the location of 108 array eyes. The core array eye is located at the entrance of a tributary of the River of Time, which is personally guarded by the Third Elder. The Seven Guardians each guard one of the seven main array eyes. I am in charge of the third array eye on the west side."

Han Mu took the jade slip and probed it with his divine sense. Sure enough, he saw a detailed array diagram. Every array point was marked, and even the defensive forces were clearly written.

"Very good. With this map, it will be much easier to destroy the Chaos Array. Phantom, continue to lie in wait. When the array is activated in three days, cooperate with us from the inside and outside to destroy the array eye you are responsible for first, and then defeat them one by one," Han Mu said.

"No problem, but I can only hold off my own guards. I can't help with the other protectors," Phantom said.

"Leave the other protectors to us. You just need to do your job. Also, can you turn the other three protectors who were forced to defect?" Han Mu asked.

"We can try Ghost Hand and Poison Scorpion; they were also controlled by the Third Elder's poison. But Yin Sha won't work; he's the Third Elder's younger brother and won't betray us," Phantom said.

"My younger brother, no wonder. Then we'll just try to win over Ghost Hand and Poison Scorpion. Tell them I can cure their poison, on the condition that they betray the Third Elder and help us destroy the great formation," Han Mu said.

"I'll try my best, but they might not believe me."

"Bring them to me, and I will detoxify them in person. They will have no choice but to believe me."

Phantom nodded, turned and left to contact Ghost Hand and Poison Scorpion.

After the phantom left, Luo Feng scratched his head and asked.

"My lord, you really trust her. What if she turns against you?"

"She wouldn't dare. Although the Soul-Devouring Poison has been cured, I've planted a time imprint in her soul. If she harbors any disloyalty, I can annihilate her soul with a single thought," Han Mu said calmly.

"Your Majesty is brilliant. In this way, Phantom will not dare to betray us," Zhou Meng said admiringly.

"However, my lord, the Third Elder has seven Great Luo Loose Immortals. Even if Ghost Hand Poison Scorpion Phantom is turned against them, there are still four left, three of whom are loyal and difficult to deal with," Han Li analyzed.

"Four Great Luo Immortals, can the three of you hold them off?" Han Mu asked Zhou Meng and the other two.

"It's no problem to hold them off, but killing them will be difficult, after all, Great Luo Loose Immortals aren't as common as cabbages," Zhou Meng said.

"No need to kill them, just hold them off. I'll deal with the Third Elder first, then I'll take care of them. The Third Elder is a late-stage Great Luo Golden Immortal. Although he's a small realm higher than me, my Time Law is perfected, so I might have a fighting chance," Han Mu said.

"My lord, once the Chaos Array is activated, it will absorb the essence of the River of Time. At that time, the Third Elder's strength will surge, possibly breaking through to the peak of the Great Luo Golden Immortal, or even higher. We must destroy the core array eye before the array is activated," Han Li reminded him.

"I know, so we need to act within three days to destroy the core array eye and prevent the array from activating. Phantom has already agreed to cooperate, and if Ghost Hand and Poison Scorpion can be turned against us, our chances of winning will be even greater," Han Mu said.

Han Mu brought up the system panel.
