The Longevity Family: Starting from the Foundation Establishment Ancestor

Han Mu's feet dug two deep furrows in the ground, but his body still slid little by little toward the cave. The red light in the cave grew brighter and brighter, and the suction force grew stronger and stronger, as if an invisible hand was pulling him in.

"My lord, use the time-space compass to freeze time." Han Li's voice came through the communication talisman, filled with anxiety.

Han Mu gritted his teeth and activated the spacetime compass. Time around him suddenly stopped, and the suction force also stopped. He took the opportunity to stabilize himself, planted his feet firmly into the ground, and finally stopped.

The effect of stopping time only lasted for two breaths. After two breaths, the suction force came again, but Han Mu was prepared. He planted his feet firmly on the ground and used his transcendent power to protect his whole body and resist the suction force.

"Interesting. You actually managed to break free from my devouring power using the laws of time." The voice from the cave carried a hint of admiration. "You're a bit stronger than the previous guardians, but that's all."

"Enough with the nonsense, come out and fight me head-on if you dare," Han Mu said coldly.

"A head-on battle? Heh, why would I fight you head-on? I just need to slowly drain your life force, and you'll become a dried-up corpse," the voice laughed.

Han Mu cursed inwardly, thinking that this Void Devourer was too cunning, giving him no chance to fight head-on.

"My lord, the fact that it dares not come out means that its physical body is inconvenient to move, or that it is in a period of weakness. This is our opportunity," Han Li analyzed.

"That makes sense. Then I'll take the initiative." Han Mu took a deep breath, resisted the suction, and walked step by step toward the cave. Every step was extremely difficult, and he left deep footprints on the ground beneath his feet.

"You actually dared to come here on your own initiative." The voice from the cave was filled with surprise.

"What's there to be afraid of? At worst, we'll all perish together," Han Mu said coldly. He continued forward, getting closer and closer to the cave, and the suction force grew stronger and stronger. His body trembled slightly, and veins bulged on his forehead.

When Han Mu reached the cave entrance, he finally saw the scene inside. A huge black creature lay in the cave, shaped like an octopus, with countless tentacles, each covered with suckers that shimmered with red light, making it look ferocious and terrifying.

"This is the true form of the Void Devourer." Han Mu was shocked. This creature was much larger than he had imagined. Its torso alone was thousands of feet long, and its tentacles extended into the depths of the cave, with no end in sight.

"Now that you've seen my true form, I can't let you leave alive." The Void Devourer's tentacles lashed out at Han Mu with astonishing speed, accompanied by a whistling sound.

Han Mu was prepared. He dodged the tentacle's attack by sidestepping and threw a punch. His transcendent power condensed into a golden beam of light, which slammed into the Void Devourer's torso.

The golden beam of light struck the Void Devourer with a muffled thud, and a fist-sized wound appeared on the Void Devourer's torso, from which black blood flowed out.

"You actually managed to hurt me." The Void Devourer's voice was filled with anger, and more tentacles lashed out at Han Mu, overwhelming him and leaving him nowhere to hide.

Han Mu activated the spacetime compass, slowing down the flow of time around him. He flickered, weaving through the gaps in the tentacles to dodge attack after attack, while continuously throwing punches to bombard the Void Devourer's torso.

But the Void Devourer had too many tentacles. Han Mu dodged one, but not the second. Soon, he was struck on the back by a tentacle and sent flying, crashing into the distant black mountain range and creating a large crater.

Han Mu climbed out of the pit, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth. He was badly injured, with several bones in his back broken.

"My lord, are you alright?" Han Li asked anxiously.

"It's alright, I won't die." Han Mu wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and rushed forward again. This time, he changed his strategy and attacked the Void Devourer's tentacles instead of its torso.

Han Mu aimed at one of the tentacles and threw a punch. The golden beam of light shattered the tentacle, and black blood spurted out. The Void Devourer let out a painful roar.

"It's working, keep going." Han Mu's spirits lifted, and he continued to attack the tentacles, shattering one tentacle after another, and the Void Devourer's attack power was significantly weakened.

"Damn human, I'm going to kill you!" The Void Devourer was completely enraged. It abandoned its suction attack and all its tentacles lashed out at Han Mu at the same time, at an extreme speed, blocking all his escape routes.

Han Mu's expression was solemn. He knew he couldn't dodge it and could only withstand it. He activated the spacetime compass, accelerating the flow of time around him to the extreme. Then, he crossed his hands in front of him, and the power of transcendence formed a golden barrier in front of him.

Countless tentacles lashed at the golden barrier, producing a series of impact sounds. The golden barrier trembled violently, cracks appeared, and it looked like it was about to shatter.

Han Mu gritted his teeth and persevered, continuously injecting his transcendent power into the barrier to maintain its stability. However, the Void Devourer's attack was too fierce, and the golden barrier eventually shattered.

Countless tentacles lashed out at Han Mu, sending him flying. He was covered in blood and his aura was weak.

"My lord," Han Li said, his voice trembling with tears.

Han Mu lay in the ruins, his whole body aching terribly. He had countless broken bones, and his transcendent power was almost completely exhausted. He could barely move a finger.

"Hahaha, you still can't escape my grasp after all." The Void Devourer laughed, and a tentacle reached out towards Han Mu, preparing to drag him into the cave.

Just as the tentacles were about to touch Han Mu, a powerful force suddenly erupted from Han Mu's body, and the spacetime compass automatically flew out, hovering above Han Mu's head, emitting a dazzling white light.

A white light enveloped Han Mu, and his injuries healed at a visible speed. His cultivation level also began to rise, breaking through from the early stage of Transcendence to the middle stage, and then continuing to rise until it stopped at the late stage of Transcendence.

"Time-Space Compass, you have actually completely merged with the Time-Space Compass." The Void Devourer's voice was filled with shock.

Han Mu stood up, feeling the surging power within his body, which was several times stronger than before. He had completely merged with the Time-Space Compass. From now on, he was the Time-Space Compass, and the Time-Space Compass was him.

"That's right, now it's my turn." Han Mu raised his hand and threw a punch. The fist imprint contained the power of space and time. Wherever it passed, space collapsed and time became disordered. Its power was more than ten times stronger than before.

The fist slammed into the Void Devourer's torso, blasting open a huge hole from which black blood gushed out like a spring.

The Void Devourer let out a shrill scream as its body began to disintegrate, its countless tentacles hanging limply to the ground.

"This punch is for the three thousand six hundred worlds you devoured." Han Mu threw another punch, and another huge fist imprint slammed into the Void Devourer.

The Void Devourer's body completely collapsed, turning into a pile of black, rotten flesh that emitted a pungent, fishy stench. A black crystal core the size of a fist rolled out from the rotten flesh; it was the Void Devourer's primordial crystal core.

Han Mu picked up the black crystal core and felt the immense power contained within it, which was far stronger than the Heavenly Demon Lord's crystal core.
