Arrival on Earth!

What did Earth look like more than eighty epochs ago, that is, more than eight hundred thousand years ago?

According to the research findings of the Earth before Li Che's time travel, more than 800,000 years ago, the Earth should have been in a large-scale ice age during the Pleistocene, where saber-toothed tigers, mammoths, and early humans were vying for survival.

However, according to the history of Earth in the primitive universe, more than 800,000 years ago, Earth was just a pastoral planet of the Silver Blue Empire, a primitive civilization in the universe. It was home to a large number of various monsters and was one of the important assets of the Silver Blue Empire.

To protect this pastoral planet that continuously produces unique monsters, the Silver Blue Empire even dispatched an interstellar fleet to guard it.

The above is all that Li Che knows about Earth. He did not inherit all of Li Che's memories from the Mountain and Sea Realm, but fortunately, these fragmented memories do contain the coordinates of Earth.

Therefore, Li Che's F6-class spaceship did not even stop for a moment on the planet called Qiulong Star. After arriving in that star system, it directly locked onto the location of the Silver Blue Empire's Milky Way galaxy and headed straight for Earth.

Half a year after Li Che retired from the extraterrestrial battlefield, he finally crossed most of the distance of the Qianwu Star Sector and arrived at a very familiar yet unfamiliar outer solar system.

"Sir, we have reached the preset cosmic coordinates and detected a life-bearing planet in the Heng star system ahead. This is state property of the Silver Blue Empire, which is under the Black Dragon Mountain Empire, and is protected by interstellar law."

"A space fleet has been detected stationed around this habitable planet. The F6-class automated probe has been activated."

「探测完毕，该宇宙舰队共计C3级宇宙飞船4艘，B1-B9级宇宙战舰212艘，A1-A9级运输舰71艘······」

The intelligent assistant "Baiyue" faithfully reported the results detected by the spaceship, but before it could finish speaking, it was interrupted by Li Che with a speechless expression.

Four Class C spaceships, plus more than two hundred Class A and Class B spaceships, this so-called space fleet was not even worthy of being cannon fodder in the extraterritorial battlefield. Li Che didn't even bother to give them a second glance.

"Sir, according to the peace treaty within the Black Dragon Mountain Empire, we should proactively submit an application to the Silver Blue Empire before landing on this planet, and only begin exploration after the Silver Blue Empire has officially approved it."

Just as Li Che was preparing to head directly to Earth, Bai Yue's gentle voice echoed in his ears once again.

"Apply my ass! Do you think I need to apply to a country with only a basic level of civilization for such a trivial matter? Bai Yue, from now on, we'll ignore the laws of all countries below the intermediate level of civilization."

Li Che rolled his eyes and gave the order directly.

"By the way, activate the stealth mode for the entire spaceship and wait for my return."

After finishing everything, Li Che opened the hatch of the F6-class vehicle and jumped into outer space.

With his World Lord-level physique and the surging power of the world within him, Li Che accelerated through this vacuum, rapidly flying towards the depths of the solar system ahead.

Pluto, Neptune, Uranus, Saturn, Jupiter, Mars...

One by one, the planets that were once so familiar appeared, and Li Che's distant memories of being an Earthling gradually flooded his mind. He accelerated continuously in space and soon saw the blue planet in the distance that he was so familiar with.

That's Earth!

"Buzz!"

Enveloped in the power of the world, Li Che ignored the Class C detection field laid down by the Silver Blue Empire on the Earth's periphery and landed on the Earth's surface as light as a feather.

As one can see, the Earth today is not much different from the modern Earth that Li Che is familiar with in terms of geological structure. The only difference is that the entire planet is tightly divided by force fields, and the land, oceans and other parts have undergone strict planning.

Within each force field region, numerous behemoths of various kinds live. On land, there are saber-toothed tigers, mammoths, and all sorts of dinosaurs, while in the ocean there are ichthyosaurs, mosasaurs, plesiosaurs, megalodons, and so on.

Among those giant beasts, the weakest were only at the first or second level of apprentices, while the strongest had already reached the level of the Eternal Star.

They are not the product of natural competition and selection, but livestock strictly classified and bred by the Silver Blue Empire, which will be sold as commodities throughout the universe.

The feeling was that the entire Earth was a vast expanse of farmland and pastures, its sole purpose being to continuously cultivate all sorts of monster products for the empire in exchange for black dragon coins, silver and blue coins, and other forms of currency.

While managing these monsters also requires a population, with the aid of technological equipment, the total number of humans on the entire planet is only a few million.

With his hands behind his back, Li Che strolled through a huge "ranch" dedicated to breeding mammoths, sighing inwardly. The mammoth king there had reached the eighth level of the Hengxing Star, but he was still just livestock in a cage, waiting to be sold.

Who would have thought that Earth, which was personally transformed by the strongest being in the universe, would now become a large ranch of a primitive civilization?

Mountains and Seas, Origin Star, Earth...

The time span of the three historical periods of this planet is undoubtedly very, very long. Li Che remembered that the candidate for the Star Tower's master during the Origin Star period was separated from Luo Feng by more than eight billion years, which is more than eight hundred thousand epochs.

When the Star Tower candidates of the Origin Star Era rose to prominence, the Nine Swords Venerable probably hadn't even been born yet.

The era in which the Mountain and Sea Realm exists is much older than the Origin Star Era.

"Buzz!"

With these thoughts in mind, Li Che took a step forward. An invisible, surging power of the world quickly enveloped the not-so-large planet, and he began to explore the planet's strata inch by inch, searching for the history of the entire planet.

Li Che spent more than a month conducting this meticulous exploration.

More than a month later, Li Che finally found an incredibly ancient "fossil" deep in the strata of the Eurasian continent.

In fact, this may not be a fossil, but a metal plate cast from a metal with very high hardness. It is clearly an alloy with very high strength and hardness that is among the best in D-grade metals.

On this metal plate were several complex characters that Li Che did not recognize at all. They were not the universal language, nor the hieroglyphics of ancient humans in Li Che's memory, but a more complex script that seemed to fit the soul more closely.

"Snapped!"

The moment he saw the obscure characters, Li Che suddenly felt the infinite space deep within his true spirit, the illusory star representing Li Che of the Mountain and Sea Realm, tremble without warning. Some obsessions that had been entangled in it dissipated and were completely released from his true self.

Clearly, these characters are the ancient scripts used on Earth during the period of the Mountain and Sea Realm.

At that moment, Li Che instantly understood the meaning of this ancient script that spoke directly to the soul:

"Mountains and Seas!"
