The Longevity Family: Starting from the Foundation Establishment Ancestor

Han Mu didn't know how long he had been unconscious. When he woke up, he found himself lying on a simple wooden bed, surrounded by a makeshift tent. There was a lot of noise coming from outside the tent; some people were moving things, and others were arguing.

"He's awake, our lord is awake." Luo Feng's voice came from outside the tent. Immediately afterwards, the tent flap was lifted, and Luo Feng, Zhou Meng, and Han Li filed in, all with joy on their faces.

"My lord, you've finally woken up! You've been unconscious for three days!" Zhou Meng exclaimed excitedly.

"Three days, that's a long time." Han Mu struggled to sit up, feeling sore all over. His meridians were broken in many places, and his very essence was also damaged. His condition was not optimistic.

"My lord, don't move around. Your injuries are severe, and you need to rest." Han Li quickly helped Han Mu up.

"How is the Holy Domain? What are the casualties among your clansmen?" Han Mu asked.

Zhou Meng's face darkened, and he remained silent for a moment before speaking: "The Holy Domain has been destroyed, and more than half of our clansmen have been killed or injured. Elder Han Xiaotian and several elders have been seriously injured and are currently recuperating."

Han Mu closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and remembered the debt he owed to the Lord of Chaos.

"Where are Lei Di and the others?" Han Mu asked again.

"They are helping to rebuild the Holy Land. We are so grateful to them these past few days, otherwise we wouldn't even have a place to stay," Zhou Meng said.

"Take me out for a look." Han Mu got out of bed and walked out of the tent with Zhou Meng's help.

Outside the tent, a bustling scene unfolded. On the ruins of the Holy Land, the surviving clansmen were clearing rubble and rebuilding houses. The four emperors, Thunder Emperor, Flame Emperor, Ice Emperor, and War Emperor, were also helping, using their magic to move boulders and repair damaged buildings.

Seeing Han Mu come out, Lei Di put down what he was doing and walked over.

"Brother Han, you're awake. How are you feeling?" Lei Di asked with concern.

"I won't die. Thank you all for your help these past few days." Han Mu cupped his hands in thanks.

"Don't mention it. We're allies, it's only right that we help each other," Thunder Emperor waved his hand and said.

"Is there any movement from the Lord of Chaos?" Han Mu asked.

"No, he hasn't shown up since he left that day, but I'm worried he won't let it go and is definitely brewing a bigger conspiracy." Lei Di's expression was solemn.

"I know, so I must recover my strength as soon as possible and then find a way to deal with him," Han Mu said. Although he has now broken through to the peak of the Sovereign, he is still far inferior to the Lord of Chaos.

"Brother Han, there's something I'm not sure if I should say," Hyotei suddenly spoke, his expression somewhat hesitant.

"Hyotei, please speak," Han Mu said.

"I've heard some rumors about the Lord of Chaos. It's said that he's not a native of the Chaos Sea, but comes from outside the Chaos," said the Ice Emperor.

"Beyond the Chaos." Han Mu frowned.

"That's right. It is said that the Lord of Chaos was originally a powerful being outside of Chaos. For some reason, he came to the Chaos Sea and became its master. Every once in a while, he harvests a batch of the origin of the rulers to maintain his power," said the Ice Emperor.

"Harvesting the origin of the sovereign." Han Mu was startled. He thought of the Time Lord, who was also harvesting the origin of time. Could it be that the Lord of Chaos and the Time Lord had some kind of relationship?

"I've heard this rumor too," Emperor Yan interjected. "It's said that the reason the Lord of Chaos can maintain strength beyond the Sovereign Realm is because he constantly devours the origins of other Sovereigns. In his eyes, we Sovereigns are nothing more than nourishment."

"Nourishment." Han Mu clenched his fist. It turned out that in the eyes of the Lord of Chaos, they were all lambs to the slaughter.

"Therefore we must unite, otherwise we will be devoured one by one by the Lord of Chaos sooner or later," said the Thunder Emperor.

"I agree. We should form an alliance to fight against the Lord of Chaos," Emperor Yan echoed.

"Count me in," the War Emperor chimed in.

"I'll join too." Hyotei nodded.

Han Mu looked at the four rulers and was moved. They knew the power of the Lord of Chaos, yet they were still willing to fight alongside him.

"Alright, then let's form the Chaos Alliance and fight against the Lord of Chaos together." Han Mu stretched out his hand, and the Thunder Emperor, Flame Emperor, Ice Emperor, and War Emperor also stretched out their hands. The five hands clasped together, symbolizing the establishment of the alliance.

"But before that, I need to recover from my injuries and then find a way to further improve my strength," Han Mu said. He is currently at the peak of the Dominator realm, and if he wants to advance further, he must break through to the Chaos Lord realm, but that is too difficult.

"Brother Han, you've swallowed the Nine-Colored Divine Lotus, and its medicinal power hasn't been fully digested yet. If you can completely refine the medicinal power of the Nine-Colored Divine Lotus, you might be able to break through to the Chaos Lord realm," the Thunder Emperor reminded him.

"Nine-Colored Divine Lotus." Han Mu then remembered that after he swallowed the Nine-Colored Divine Lotus, he was only focused on fighting and had no time to refine it. Most of the medicinal power was still stored in his body.

"That's right, the Nine-Colored Divine Lotus is a supreme treasure of chaos, containing the origin of chaos. If one can completely refine it, breaking through to the level of the Lord of Chaos is not impossible," said Emperor Yan.

"Alright, then I'll go into seclusion to refine the Nine-Colored Divine Lotus. I'll leave the reconstruction of the Holy Domain to you all," Han Mu said.

"Don't worry about going into seclusion, we'll take care of things here," Lei Di assured him, patting his chest.

Han Mu returned to his tent, sat cross-legged, and began to guide the medicinal power of the Nine-Colored Divine Lotus within his body. The medicinal power flowed through his meridians like nine warm currents, repairing his damaged meridians and origin.

The refining process went smoothly. The medicinal power of the Nine-Colored Divine Lotus was gentle yet potent. Han Mu's injuries healed at a visible speed, and his cultivation level steadily improved.

Three days later, Han Mu's injuries were fully recovered, and his cultivation had reached the limit of the peak of the Sovereign realm. He was only a thin veil away from the Chaos Lord realm, but he just couldn't break through it.

"I'm still a little short. What is it?" Han Mu frowned. He clearly sensed the threshold of the Chaos Lord realm, but he just couldn't cross it.

"My lord, breaking through to the Chaos Lord level requires a catalyst; it cannot be forced," Han Li's voice came from outside the tent.

"Opportunity? What opportunity?" Han Mu asked.

"Everyone's opportunity is different. Some people break through at the critical moment of life and death, while others break through in a moment of enlightenment. My lord, you might as well go out and take a walk. Perhaps you can find an opportunity," Han Li suggested.

After a moment's thought, Han Mu decided to follow Han Li's advice and leave the tent.

Stepping out of the tent, Han Mu saw that the Holy Domain had been largely rebuilt. Although it was not as large as before, at least there was a place to shelter from the wind and rain, and the tribesmen's faces showed smiles.

"Brother Han, you've emerged from seclusion. How was it? Did you break through?" Lei Di asked upon seeing Han Mu.

"Almost there, we're stuck at a bottleneck." Han Mu shook his head.

"Don't rush, take your time. Breaking through to the Chaos Lord realm isn't easy," the Thunder Emperor comforted him.

"I know, I want to go out and see if I can find an opportunity for a breakthrough," Han Mu said.

"Where to?" the Thunder Emperor asked.

"The Primordial Battlefield," Han Mu said. He had heard the Ice Emperor mention this place before. It was where the remains and origins of countless ancient powerhouses were buried, and perhaps one could find an opportunity to break through.
