However, he immediately shook his head, realizing that once he embarked on this path, there was no turning back.

Those chasing him from behind must know of his existence and will certainly prepare ways to deal with him. For now, we can only return to Earth.

According to Nüba, even gods cannot descend to Earth.

Silently, he gathered the remains of everyone on the stars and buried them together.

They were all sages who died fighting for the Primordial Emperor Star; their bodies should not be left to rot in the wilderness.

After doing all that, he continued on his way.

After passing through two more places of cosmic floating soil, a halo of light suddenly appeared in Li Lan's eyes!

The halo was colorful, but upon closer inspection, it instantly evoked memories for Li Lan…

The Milky Way, which I've seen in textbooks and science magazines before!

"Galaxy!"

Li Lan said with great excitement.

After four years of effort, and with the ancient roads still open to the way, I have finally seen... my hometown.

Li Lan moved forward swiftly, and before long, he had entered the Milky Way. He traveled back and forth rapidly for several days until he finally saw a huge fireball standing calmly in the universe. On the surface of that huge fireball, one could see boiling magma and other phenomena, which was extremely astonishing.

Around that enormous fireball, several stars revolved, following their eternal orbits.

One of the stars is a mesmerizing azure blue...

Solar system!

Earth!

Li Lan was extremely excited!

Ever since he inexplicably traveled to the underworld, he thought he would never see Earth again in his life.

Having experienced countless battles and contests in the underworld and weathered many perilous waves in the mortal realm, I have finally seen my hometown, and countless memories have instantly surfaced.

Childhood laughter, carefree teenage years, and countless moments on campus during university...

My childhood friends, my friends, and my parents...

Are they all alright?

A surge of emotions welled up within Li Lan. He took a deep breath and continued forward.

Before long, a flash of light appeared, and he landed on a crimson star!

"Ying Huo."

In front of him stood a huge stone tablet, its surface weathered and worn by time.

At the base of the stone tablet lay a pile of withered bones, the pedestal stained red. Li Lan walked over and, beneath the base of the Yinghuo stele, there was a line of small characters:

"The Emperor Star suffered a calamity and fled far away. He gathered the remaining power of the immortals to form this Milky Way Array to defend against foreign enemies."

Li Lan was astonished. Was the entire Milky Way a grand array created by the sages of the past?

He immediately activated the Great Dao Heavenly Eye, soared into the air, and surveyed the entire Mars Continent.

The so-called "Yinghuo" is the "Mars" of the solar system. The surface of Mars is reddish, but there are hidden dark veins. Li Lan studied it carefully and soon found some patterns of a large array.

"With blood and bones as aids and a sky full of stars as guides, it is indeed an unparalleled formation!"

Li Lan was solemn, but why had these great formations lost their vitality?

He walked past several key points of the formation without making a sound.

"Over the long course of time, has even the great array left by our ancestors to protect the earth lost its power?"

Li Lan frowned slightly.

He could tell that this great formation was extremely powerful. If it were still there, it might be able to stop anyone who came later on this path!

While it may not be sustainable in the long run, it can at least protect the Earth for the time being.

He searched carefully and studied repeatedly, and before long, he finally figured out the structure of the great formation.

"The formations are intricate, but the true core lies deep within Mars!"

His eyes shone brightly, determined to venture deep into Mars!

Rumble--

But at that very moment, a tremendous mechanical roar came from above. Li Lan's senses were too sharp; he looked up and saw a massive spaceship in space, heading straight for Mars.

Li Lan was stunned for a moment.

Is this... a spaceship from Earth?
