The cultivators' working speed still far surpassed ordinary people's understanding. A several-hundred-meter tower, containing a network formed of countless specialized lines—on the Blue Star of the past, such a project would have taken at least a decade, perhaps even a generation. Yet through everyone's efforts, it was restored in merely two months.
