The Longevity Family: Starting from the Foundation Establishment Ancestor

Shi Zun's voice was like thunder, shaking the entire dilapidated palace to the point of collapse. Zhou Meng and Luo Feng turned pale, the pressure of the peak of the Great Luo Golden Immortal made it difficult for them to even stand.

Han Mu endured the oppressive force and stored the core of the Source of Time in his storage ring. He could not refine the core now and had to leave this place.

"My lord, what should we do? Shi Zun is here." Zhou Meng's voice trembled.

"Go, leave immediately." Han Mu grabbed Zhou Meng and Luo Feng, used the law of time to accelerate, and rushed out of the palace.

Just as they rushed out of the palace, a massive, sky-covering palm print descended from the heavens, striking the location where the three of them were.

Han Mu's expression changed drastically. The power contained in this palm print far exceeded that of Shi Sha. If he were hit, he would surely die.

"Time Stop." Han Mu activated the Law of Time with all his might, slowing down the flow of time around him and reducing the speed at which his palm print fell. However, the reduction was only 30%, and it still fell with terrifying force.

"Damn it, the gap is too big." Han Mu gritted his teeth, took out the fragments of the Coffin of Origin, and the five fragments merged to form a shield above his head.

The palm print struck the shield, instantly cracking it. Han Mu spat out a mouthful of blood, but the palm print was blocked for a moment.

In that short time, Han Mu led Zhou Meng and Luo Feng thousands of miles away, escaping the range of the palm print.

Boom!

As the palm print fell, the entire dilapidated palace turned to dust, leaving a bottomless palm print on the earth.

"You escaped pretty quickly." Shi Zun's figure appeared in the air, wearing a golden robe, his face blurred, and time flowed around him, as if he did not belong to this time and space.

Han Mu glanced back and felt a chill run down his spine. Shi Zun was just a projection, not the real Shi Zun, but even as a projection, he was terrifyingly powerful.

"Han Mu, hand over the core of the Source of Time, and I will spare your corpse." The projection of the Time Lord spoke, his voice calm, yet containing boundless killing intent.

"Dream on." Han Mu quickened his pace and fled towards the outer reaches of the chaotic mist.

"Stubborn to the end." The projection of the Time Lord raised his hand and pointed, unleashing a blade of time that stopped time and froze space wherever it passed.

Han Mu sensed the impending death; he couldn't withstand this attack.

"My lord, use the core of the Source of Time; it can negate the attack of time," Zhou Meng said urgently.

Han Mu immediately took out the core of the Source of Time, infused it with immortal power, and the core emitted a dazzling white light, forming a light shield to protect the three of them.

The Blade of Time struck the light shield, causing it to tremble violently but not shatter. Han Mu seized the opportunity to rush tens of thousands of miles away.

"Interesting. You managed to block one of my attacks, but how many more can you withstand?" The projection of the Time Lord took a step forward and instantly appeared in front of Han Mu, blocking his path.

"Lord Shi, you dare not come in person, you only send a projection. Are you afraid of death?" Han Mu mocked.

"Provocation won't work on me. A single projection is enough to kill you." The Time Lord's projection struck again, this time with the Time Cage, intending to trap Han Mu.

Han Mu was prepared. He activated the core of the Source of Time at full power, transforming it into a beam of white light that forcibly tore open the cage of time and rushed out.

"My lord, the power of the Time Lord's projection is limited. As long as we escape the Chaotic Mist Sea, the projection will dissipate." Han Li's voice came from the transmission talisman.

"How do we escape? He's faster than me," Han Mu asked as he ran.

"Use the laws of time to create temporal turbulence, disrupt the projection's perception, and then take the opportunity to escape from the Sea of ​​Mist," Han Li said.

Han Mu nodded, and the Law of Time was activated. The surrounding time began to become disordered, with the past, present, and future intertwined, forming a temporal turbulence.

The projection of Shi Zun frowned slightly. The temporal turbulence interfered with his perception, making it impossible for him to pinpoint Han Mu's location for the time being.

"A mere trick." The projection of the Time Lord raised his hand and grabbed, forcibly smoothing out the turbulent flow of time, but Han Mu had already taken the opportunity to escape hundreds of thousands of miles away.

"My lord, the exit is just ahead. Speed ​​up!" Zhou Meng pointed ahead, where a bright light could be seen, marking the exit of the Chaotic Mist Sea.

Han Mu sprinted with all his might, but the projection of the Time Lord chased after him again, striking out with a palm that contained the power of time reversal, intending to send Han Mu back to his original position.

Han Mu's expression changed drastically. If he were hit, all the distance he had escaped would be wasted, and he would be seriously injured.

"I'll risk it all." Han Mu gritted his teeth, burned his essence blood, and his speed surged. He narrowly avoided the palm print and rushed out of the light.

The scene before them changed, and the three of them had left the chaotic misty sea and appeared in a starry sky.

The projection of Shi Zun chased to the exit, but stopped, unable to leave the chaotic misty sea, due to the restrictions of the rules.

"Han Mu, you can't escape. I will find you and tear you to pieces," the projection of the Time Venerable said coldly before disappearing.

Han Mu and his two companions collapsed in the starry sky, panting heavily. It had been too dangerous; they had almost died.

"My lord, are you alright?" Zhou Meng asked worriedly.

"I won't die, but my injuries have worsened, and I need immediate treatment." Han Mu wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth. The burning of his essence blood had exacerbated his injuries.

"My lord, where do we go now? Shi Zun will definitely not let this go easily," Luo Feng asked.

"Go to the Time Guardian Ruins. There are legacies left by the Time Guardian there that can help me heal my injuries and also enhance my strength," Han Mu said, looking at Zhou Meng.

The Time Guardian Mark in Zhou Meng's arms emitted a bright light, pointing towards the depths of the starry sky.

"My lord, the ruins of Shishou are over there, but they are very far away. At our current speed, it will take at least three months," Zhou Meng said.

"Three months it is. Let's find a place to heal first, and set off again when we've recovered." Han Mu brought up the system panel to check his status.

Name: Han Mu

[True Realm: Peak of the Great Luo Loose Immortal (Severely Injured)]

[Time Rule: 100% (Initial Control)]

[Status: 61% of meridians damaged, essence and blood depleted, immortal power exhausted; requires seclusion for healing]

[Possesses: Core of the Source of Time, Fragment of the Coffin of Origin x5, Fragment of the Key of Time x3, Core of the Molten Core (fragment), Token of the Netherworld Guardian, and the middle part of the Time Guardian's Legacy]

[System Notification: The Source of Time Core can be refined, but a safe environment is required.]

Han Mu closed the panel, took out several healing pills and swallowed them, then began to regulate his breathing.

"My lord, there's an abandoned planet nearby. We can go there to heal our wounds," Han Li said after surveying the surroundings.

"Okay, let's go to that planet." Han Mu nodded.

The three flew towards the abandoned planet. The planet was small and lifeless, but it had a relatively abundant spiritual energy, making it suitable for healing.

Han Mu found a cave, set up an array, and began to heal his injuries in seclusion, with Zhou Meng and Luo Feng acting as his protectors.

"Fatty, how long do you think the Master will be in seclusion this time?" Zhou Meng asked.

"At least a month, my lord's injuries are too severe, but with the core of the Source of Time, it should be faster," Luo Feng said.

"I hope our lord recovers quickly. The Emperor will definitely not give us much time," Zhou Meng sighed.

A month later, a powerful aura emanated from the cave. Han Mu had emerged from seclusion, his injuries healed, and his cultivation had improved even further, now only a step away from becoming a Great Luo Golden Immortal.

"My lord, you've broken through!" Zhou Meng exclaimed in delight.

"Not yet, but I could break through at any time. However, now is not the time. Let's head to the Shi Shou Ruins first." Han Mu walked out of the cave, his eyes gleaming.

"My lord, I sensed something amiss at the Time Guardian Ruins just now. It seems someone is attacking the ruins." Zhou Meng's expression was grave.

"Someone is attacking the ruins. Who is it?" Han Mu frowned.

"I don't know, but they're definitely not friends, my lord. We need to speed things up," Zhou Meng said.

"Let's go." Han Mu led the two of them and flew towards the Shi Shou Ruins.

During the flight, Han Mu refined the core of the Source of Time, completely mastering the laws of time. He could manipulate time with every move, and his strength increased dramatically.

"My lord, the Shishou Ruins are just ahead, but a group of people are surrounding them and attacking them," Zhou Meng pointed ahead.

Looking ahead, Han Mu saw a huge palace floating in the starry sky, surrounded by thousands of people attacking the palace's defensive formation.

"Who are these people?" Han Mu asked.

"They are Shi Zun's men, and the leader is another great general under Shi Zun, Shi Gui, a late-stage Great Luo Golden Immortal." Zhou Meng's face was grim.

"Late-stage Grand Luo Golden Immortal, a bit troublesome, but not insurmountable." A cold glint flashed in Han Mu's eyes. He had to enter the Time Guardian Ruins; anyone who tried to stop him would die.
