“Could it be—”
Ma Yihan mused and speculated from the side, “that the immortal seed inside is already damaged? That’s why there was no reaction at all.”
“Don’t say such things.”
Feng Lianhu looked at him displeasedly and said, “Don’t you know it brings bad luck?”
“Alright, alright.” Ma Yihan waved his hand and said, “I won’t say it, I won’t say it, is that enough?”
“Hmm~ I actually think,”
Shi Qingsheng pondered, “Ma Yihan’s speculation has some merit.”
“These useless words, let’s talk about them when we’re free later.”
Feng Lianhu inquired, “All I want to know right now is, is the number of reserves still sufficient?”
“It should—be enough.”
Shi Qingsheng thought for a moment and said, “Forget it, I’ll go check the ‘warehouse’ myself.”
With that, he turned to fly towards the rear.
But just then, a figure flew rapidly from the sky.
This figure was none other than Li Hai himself.
And in his rapidly expanding field of vision, the personal information interfaces of all the Mystic Gu Workshop Masters below were all identical, showing: Character Name: Unknown Rank: Colonization Soldier Envoy → Advanced Colonization Soldier Skills: Advanced Giant God Unit 《High-Frequency Sword - High-Frequency Version》 《Heavy Particle Cannon - Flagship Version》

Strongest Fragment: None Boom!
Just as the Eight Workshop Masters had no time to react, Li Hai, like a Nine Heavens Mystic Arrow shot from the Immortal Court to the Human Realm, swept through thousands of feet of distance and violently crashed to the ground.
At that moment, an area of a thousand feet in radius was as if struck by a meteorite.
With a loud boom, it violently vibrated and completely shattered.
Accompanied by the intense eruption of countless shattered rocks and magma, Li Hai, who had crashed into the earth, actually slammed out a scorching red pit over a hundred feet in diameter.
And the Eight Workshop Masters, under this earth-shattering impact, were dizzyingly bounced into the sky, thousands of feet high, in an instant.
However, just as they reacted, roaring and trying to fly back to the now ruined land to encircle and kill the attacker.
From the ethereal misty sky above, a nearly real starry sky suddenly appeared.
In this “real starry sky,” hundreds of shining stars circulated.
But if one looked closely, they would find that they were not real stars at all, but rather aggregations of Sword Qi, densely packed and squeezed together.
This was the Seven Star Tower’s supreme sword art, the “Map Cannon” sword technique, Star Net Sword, which required the cooperation of multiple people to unleash.
And the one using this sword art was precisely Li Hai, who had appeared around the immortal skeleton crystal below at some Unknown time.
He caressed the crystal, raised his head to look at the eight insect-men who were rapidly flying down from the sky, and with a light laugh, activated the Star Net Sword, a sword technique that could be called “ground clearing.”
Whoosh whoosh whoosh—
In an instant, Sword Qi stars flew swiftly from the hazy starry sky above the firmament.
Like thousands of hypersonic cruise missiles, they bombarded the eight Mystic Gu Workshop Masters from all directions.
At the same time, many Medium Grade Gu Masters who heard the sound and rushed over were also included in the bombardment range of the Star Net Sword, so for a time, in the boundless sky above, the vast firmament shone with brilliance, stars like a sea illuminated the cloud's edge, silver light sprinkled a thousand paths, and cold flames burned away the heavy veil.
And under the bombardment of tens of thousands, even hundreds of thousands of sharp Sword Qi, the eight Mystic Gu Workshop Masters were also blown to pieces, finally falling like meteors one by one in front of Li Hai, creating a series of craters with loud thuds.
As for the Medium Grade Gu Masters who rushed over from various farther places around, not even half a corpse remained; they all turned into endless scorching ash.
There was no conversation with these people, nor much hesitation.
Li Hai, like a flash of lightning, circled the eight Workshop Masters in a whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, brutally extracting all the Advanced Giant God Units from their bodies, and then throwing them into the Guiyou Cave Heaven.
After he finished these tasks, he casually dragged over Ma Yihan, who was lying on the ground weakly moaning, and then, with practiced ease, took out a few truth serums and half-dead-must-die pills, stuffing them all into his mouth.
Subsequently, Li Hai sat down on the ground and leisurely began to inquire about information:
“What are you doing here?”
Ma Yihan, whose strength had severely plummeted and was as fragile as a Mortal, asked dazedly:
“We are extracting immortal skeleton Gu seeds here.”
Upon hearing this, Li Hai turned to look at the huge crystal not far away, then asked again: “What is an immortal skeleton Gu seed?”
Ma Yihan stared blankly and pointed at the crystal, saying: “The corpse inside was left by a Gu Immortal; fusing with his Gu seed has a chance of becoming a Gu Immortal.”
“I see, I understand.”
Li Hai nodded, “Meaning, the corpse in that crystal contains a higher-grade Giant God Unit, oh, which is what you call a Gu seed. Then—is the strength of a Gu Immortal similar to a Martial Arts Myth?”
Ma Yihan slowly nodded: “Yes, yes.”
“But I also have a question.” Li Hai asked, “How did you know?”
Ma Yihan slowly said: “The Organization told us.”
“Organization? What Organization?” Li Hai pressed, “Is it the Organization that supplies you with children? What is this Organization called?”
Ma Yihan said dazedly: “The Organization has no name; if forced to name it, it can generally be called the Nameless Organization, and then—all the children of the Mystic Gu Workshop are indeed supplied by the Nameless Organization.”
After hearing this, Li Hai asked again: “Just now in the sky, I saw you placing tens of thousands of child corpses around that immortal skeleton. What were you doing? And where did the other children go?”
Ma Yihan replied: “We are using the method provided by the Nameless Organization to extract the blood of ten thousand children and infuse it into the immortal skeleton crystal, performing the Gu seed extraction procedure.”
Upon hearing this, Li Hai frowned and said in a deep voice: “So what about the hundreds of thousands of other children? Were they hidden by you—or have they all been blood-sacrificed?”
“All blood-sacrificed.” Ma Yihan slowly said, “That batch just now was the last remaining.”
Bang!
After a muffled sound, Ma Yihan’s head was blown apart by Li Hai’s punch.
His body swayed and fell powerlessly, and at the same time, an additional Strongest Fragment appeared in Li Hai’s personal interface.
