The Longevity Family: Starting from the Foundation Establishment Ancestor

The second demonic figure appeared, and the atmosphere in the arena changed drastically.

The Grand Elder's face turned deathly pale. Although he was at the peak of his cultivation, he had no chance of winning against a demon god at the Great Perfection level.

"Retreat." The Grand Elder turned and fled without hesitation.

"Want to leave? I've been sealed away for a million years, and I'm just missing a few blood offerings to replenish my body." The demon god's true form sneered, reaching out to grab the Grand Elder, freezing the space around him and immobilizing him in mid-air.

"Big brother!" the second elder cried out, wanting to help, but the demon god's true form only glanced at him, and the second elder coughed up blood and flew backward, crashing into several mountain peaks.

"Even ants dare to be so presumptuous." The demon god withdrew his gaze and looked at the Grand Elder who was frozen in place.

"Senior, spare my life! I am willing to serve you!" the elder pleaded in terror.

"Serve? You're not worthy." The demon god's true form scoffed, and with a forceful twist of his five fingers, the elder's body began to contort and deform.

"No!" The elder screamed as his body exploded, turning into a blood mist, which was then swallowed whole by the demon god's true form.

"It tastes good. The flesh and blood of a Great Luo Golden Immortal is truly nourishing." The demon god licked his lips and looked at Han Mu and the other two watching the battle from afar.

Alarm bells rang in Han Mu's mind. This demon god's true form was too powerful; even the Grand Elder, a peak Great Luo Golden Immortal, had no power to resist.

"My lord, what should we do? This demon god looks dangerous." Luo Feng swallowed hard.

"He's not just not easy to mess with, all of us combined wouldn't even be enough to fill his teeth," Zhou Meng said with a wry smile.

"Don't panic. This demon god has just broken free of his seal and his strength has not fully recovered. Moreover, he needs time to digest the Grand Elder's devouring. This is our only chance," Han Mu said calmly.

"Even if his strength hasn't recovered, he's still a Great Luo Golden Immortal at the Great Perfection. We can't beat him," Luo Feng muttered.

"If you can't beat them, run. But before you run, you have to make him fight that lingering remnant first." Han Mu looked at the first demonic figure.

After the first demonic shadow devoured the fragment, its strength returned to its peak, and it is now watching the demon god's true form warily.

"What a pity, why don't you return to your place? Are you waiting for me to do it myself?" the demon god said coldly.

"Return to your place? Dream on! I have been sealed for millions of years and have long since developed my own independent consciousness. Why should I merge with you?" the first demonic figure roared.

"Because I am the true form, and you are merely a wisp of my lingering remnant, returning to the true form is your destiny." The demon god's true form's tone grew colder.

"Destiny? I don't believe in destiny. If you want to fight, then fight. Who's afraid of who?" The first demonic figure retorted defiantly.

"Fine, since you're courting death, I'll grant your wish." The demon god's true form made a move, striking the first demonic shadow with a palm.

The two demonic figures clashed instantly, their battle causing the heavens and earth to tremble and the entire endless abyss to shake.

Han Mu's eyes lit up; his opportunity had arrived.

"Now's the time, let's go." Han Mu shouted in a low voice, leading Zhou Meng and Luo Feng to quietly retreat.

"My lord, where are we going? Back to headquarters?" Luo Feng asked.

"No, we must go to the bottom of the Sealed Demon Well. There are clues to the Source of Time in the fragments; we must obtain them," Han Mu said.

"But the demons are fighting at the wellhead, how are we supposed to get down?" Zhou Meng frowned.

"Go around to the side. Han Li gave me this before." Han Mu took out an array plate, which was the tool that Han Li had prepared to break the array.

"The Void-Breaking Array Plate can teleport short distances, but it can only be used once, and the distance is limited," Han Mu explained.

"My lord intends to use the array plate to teleport to the bottom of the well, but can the array plate withstand the demonic energy at the bottom of the well?" Zhou Meng worried.

"Yes, there is a purification array set up by Han Li on the array plate, which can resist the erosion of demonic energy. However, we only have one incense stick's time. We must find the clues and leave within one incense stick's time," Han Mu said.

"Is one incense stick enough?" Luo Feng scratched his head.

"We have to try, no matter how many we have. We must get the clues to the Source of Time; it's the key to our fight against the Time Lord," Han Mu said firmly.

In the distance, the battle between the two demonic figures intensified. Although the demon god's true form was stronger, the first demonic figure, relying on its agility, was not at a disadvantage for the time being.

"What a pity, you think you can contend with me? What a joke." The demon god's true form suddenly erupted, his aura surging again, and he struck the first demonic shadow with a palm.

The first demonic figure coughed up blood and flew backward, its aura weakened.

"Oh no, the remnant is about to be defeated, we have to leave quickly." Han Mu activated the array plate, and the light enveloped the three of them, making them disappear instantly.

When it reappeared, it was already at the bottom of the Demon-Sealing Well.

The space at the bottom of the well is not large, only a hundred feet in diameter. In the center is a stone platform, on which sits a token that emits golden light. This token is the clue to the source of time.

"Found it." Han Mu's eyes lit up, and he rushed towards the stone platform.

"Be careful, there are restrictions," Zhou Meng warned.

Han Mu stopped and saw that there was a transparent barrier around the stone platform. Runes flowed on the barrier, emanating a terrifying aura.

"This is a restriction left by Senior Shi Shou, and only Shi Shou's successor can open it," Zhou Meng said.

"Come here," Han Mu said, looking at Zhou Meng.

Zhou Meng nodded, walked to the barrier, activated the Time Guardian Mark, and golden light merged into the barrier, causing it to slowly open.

Han Mu stepped forward and picked up the token. The token was warm to the touch, and a surge of information flooded into his mind.

"The Source of Time lies deep within the Chaotic Mist Sea. It requires the collection of six fragments of the Coffin of Origin to open it with the Key of Time."

"The Chaotic Mist Sea is one of the three most dangerous places; those who enter it face a near-certain death." Zhou Meng's expression was grim.

"No matter how dangerous it is, we have to go. We must obtain the Source of Time." Han Mu put away the token.

Suddenly, a roar came from the wellhead.

"You ant, daring to steal my things, you're asking for death."

The demon god dealt with the first demonic shadow, then discovered that Han Mu and his two companions had sneaked into the bottom of the well. Enraged, he slammed his palm down into the well.

"Hurry up." Han Mu activated the array plate, and with another flash of light, the three of them disappeared into the bottom of the well.

The demon god's true form struck empty air, creating a deep pit at the bottom of the well, but Han Mu and his two companions had already vanished.

"Time-space teleportation, you can't escape." Sensing the spatial fluctuations, the demon god tore through space and gave chase.

A hundred miles away, Han Mu and his two companions fell out of the void, their faces pale.

"My lord, the array plate has run out of energy," Zhou Meng said.

"It's alright, we've already escaped. The demon god's true form can't catch up for now." Han Mu looked into the distance, where the demon god's true form was tearing through space.

"My lord, where are we going now? Back to headquarters?" Luo Feng asked.

"We won't go back. The headquarters has a Heaven-Binding and Earth-Locking Formation. Going back would be like walking into a trap. We'll go to the Myriad Manifestations Heavenly City. There, Senior Shi Shou left a teleportation array that can teleport us to the vicinity of the Chaotic Mist Sea," Han Mu said.

"But Wanxiang Tiancheng is a million miles away from here, how do we get there?" Zhou Meng asked.

"Use this." Han Mu took out a palm-sized flying boat, which was the Sky-Piercing Boat he had obtained at the auction.

"The Celestial Boat can travel 100,000 li a day, and we will arrive at the Myriad Manifestations Heavenly City in ten days." Han Mu infused the flying boat with immortal power, making it larger. The three of them boarded the flying boat and disappeared into the horizon as they turned into streaks of light.

Behind them, the demon god's true form tore through space and appeared, his face grim as he watched the departing flying boat.

"A time-space artifact, interesting. I'd like to see where you can escape to."

The demon god's true form transformed into black mist and chased after the flying boat.

On the flying boat, Han Mu brought up the system panel.

Name: Han Mu

"The Chaotic Mist Sea looks like it's going to be another tough battle," Han Mu muttered to himself.

"My lord, the demon god is catching up," Zhou Meng suddenly said.

Han Mu turned around and saw billowing black mist on the horizon behind him, with the demon god's true form rapidly approaching.

"The speed of the Sky-Piercing Boat is not as fast as that of the Demon God. If this continues, it will be caught up soon." Han Mu frowned.

"My lord, ahead lies the Fallen God Mountain Range, where there are spatial turbulence that can block the Demon God." Han Li's voice suddenly came from the communication talisman.

"Han Li, how did you know where we were?" Han Mu asked.

"My lord, I have left tracking talismans on you, which can sense your location. I have just calculated that there will be spacetime turbulence in the Fallen God Mountains, which can be used to get rid of the demon god," Han Li said.

"Alright, let's go to the Fallen God Mountains." Han Mu steered the flying boat to turn and head towards the Fallen God Mountains.

Behind them, the true form of the demon god sneered.

"Trying to use the spacetime turbulence to get rid of me? Dream on! I'll play along."

The demon god accelerated, getting closer and closer to the airship.
