“I don’t know why it’s like this either.”

Feifei shook her head blankly, “I just feel like I’m full of strength right now.”

Saying that, she punched a huge rock wall to her side.

Bang!

After a muffled sound, her entire arm plunged into the rock wall, and the area around the point of impact cracked into dense, spiderweb-like fissures.

It was as if this mountain wall was made of soft tofu.

Seeing this, Li Hai couldn’t help but chuckle:

“Whatever the reason, at least you have some self-preservation ability now.”

Then, without waiting for Feifei to speak, he said again:

“You should go back first. Zan Popo’s funeral still needs you to handle. I’ll resolve things here,

and then I’ll go back and meet up with you.”

“Then—” Feifei opened her mouth, then pursed her lips and said, “Alright then, Big Brother Li—please be careful.”

“Mm, I know.” Li Hai nodded, saying no more.

Immediately, Feifei turned and quickly walked along the wide path previously forged by the Qilin, heading out of the Red Soil Forest. Before long, she disappeared from sight.

And just as Feifei left, a blood-red, vibrant, pointed, three-petaled flower-like pattern suddenly appeared on Li Hai’s forehead.

This made his almost celestial, neither male nor female, both extraordinary and sacred, yet also beautiful and magnificent aura, instantly become much more strange and enchanting, while also subtly carrying a hint of—?

However, Li Hai himself did not notice these things. He only felt that his mind seemed to have suddenly become much clearer and more lucid.

To describe it, it was as if a cool, minty Qi was constantly blowing across Li Hai’s brain and soul, making his thought processes and associative abilities much faster.

So Li Hai simply sat down slowly on the ground, guarded by the Dao Ge Four.

He closed his eyes slightly and began to systematically sort and categorize all the Cultivation Techniques he had acquired during this period.

Li Hai sat for a full two hours, until the horizon began to show a faint predawn glow, and even the morning light seemed to be slowly arriving.

And it was after this almost Dao-like process that Li Hai, possessing a terrifyingly rich martial arts foundation, suddenly felt that the high and mighty Eternal Overlord Realm—seemed to be becoming clearer and clearer.

So clear that if he wished, he could, through the Celestial Key Scripture given by Long Hanshui, unify all methods and integrate all techniques, creating his own Tyrant Level martial Dao Cultivation Technique even without entering the Tyrant Level Realm.

However, what was different was that normal overlords typically only created, and could only create, one Cultivation Technique.

But perhaps because Li Hai had learned so many martial arts, the Tyrant Level Cultivation Techniques he could create would be more than one.

“No rush, no rush, the time has not yet come.”

Looking at the slowly rising sun in the distance, Li Hai silently thought, “It’s not too late to Breakthrough after I’ve accumulated more fragments.”

Perhaps because it was now daytime, the Mystic Gu Workshop in the valley below the cliff seemed to have awakened. All the buildings regularly began to slowly expand and slowly contract in small increments, as if breathing.

And as these buildings expanded and contracted, the countless vein-like vines climbing all over their surfaces also twisted and twitched rapidly and rhythmically, like living things, as if transporting streams of nutrients.

Thus, at first glance, it was very strange and unsettling.

But just as Li Hai was about to leap down the cliff and enter the Mystic Gu Workshop.

A small team of sixteen tall, burly, half-human, half-insect strange life forms suddenly flew out from a building on the outskirts of the Mystic Gu Workshop below, slowly flying in various directions as if on patrol, neither fast nor slow.

The direction two of these insect people flew was precisely towards Li Hai. And as Li Hai saw these anomalous life forms, especially after remotely seeing their or its individual interface information, an extremely strange expression appeared on his face.

This was because all the individual interfaces of these insect people were—Character Name: Unknown Rank Level: Colonization Soldier Envoy → Low-Rank Armored Soldier Skills Owned: 《Low-Rank Giant God Unit 《High-Frequency Blade - General Purpose Type》 《Heavy Particle Cannon - General Purpose Type》

《Micro Bio-Heat Ray Cannon》 《Small Bio-Heat Ray Cannon》 《Shockwave Generator - General Purpose Type》 《Small Bio-Energy Reactor》 《Miniature Bio-Missile - Linked Type》 《Shield Generation Device - General Purpose Type》

Attribute Entries: 【Bio-2nd Rank】 【Strong Soul 2nd Rank】 【Alertness 2nd Rank】 【Iron Body 2nd Rank】 【Self-Healing 2nd Rank】

【Light Energy 2nd Rank】 【Force Field 2nd Rank】

Strong One Fragment: None “What the f—!”

Li Hai’s eyes widened as he blurted out, “This is—this looks like Guyver?!”

In an instant, he understood many, many things.

So that’s it, so that’s it.

After all this time, the ‘Gu’ character in Mystic Gu Workshop actually referred to the Guyver Unit.

Oh, judging from the individual interface information of these Low-Rank Colonization Soldier Envoys, their official name should be—Giant God Unit.

As for the concept of ‘Unit’ that Li Hai spoke of, it came from a Japanese manga he had read on the internet in his previous life—《Guyver: The Bioboosted Armor》.

In that manga, there was a thing called Unit G somewhere on Earth. The specific details will not be elaborated further, but humans could mutate into so-called Guyvers by Fusing with this Unit G, thereby gaining powerful strength, defense, speed, self-healing, and various other special abilities beyond their era.

In short, the ‘things’ being researched in this Mystic Gu Workshop were not at all the strange and varied so-called Gu insects that Li Hai had previously imagined, but rather Guyver armor with explosive technological content.

As for where the Mystic Gu Workshop obtained these Giant God Units, there was no need to think too much about it. It must have been excavated from some underground prehistoric civilization relic, just like the Divine Armory of the Great Jing Dynasty.

Because of this, Li Hai also suddenly recalled Zan Popo’s remark, “The people in the Mystic Gu Workshop like to put various bugs into people’s bodies.”

Now it seemed that the so-called bugs mentioned by Popo were perhaps the Giant God Units.

However, judging from her description full of deep loathing, the process of Fusing with this Guyver Unit might not be pleasant,

and even the scene during Fusion might be quite bloody and bizarre.

And after these various chaotic thoughts flashed through his mind, Li Hai unhesitatingly absorbed all the skill information of these Mystic Gu Workshop Guyvers.

Thus, in that instant, Li Hai gained a new species form—Guyver, or perhaps Colonization Soldier Envoy.

It was also upon officially becoming a Colonization Soldier Envoy that he immediately understood the many intricacies of this ‘Cultivation’ system.
