The Spirit World.

The Great Wetland.

Aaron's figure appeared out of thin air, every inch of his skin filled with a sense of flesh and blood.

Ever since opening the Fourth Primordial Substance, he had always entered the Spirit World with his physical body.

"Spirituality is like an ocean!"

Aaron murmured, his thoughts shifting slightly, and the temperature around him rose continuously, as if invisible flames were surging.

Since opening the four major primordial substances, an Extraordinary could enter the Spirit World with their physical body to better explore this place.

The next moment!

Raging flames burned directly upon the desert, the high temperature boiling and scorching the black sand into glass-like Crystal!

The mummy guards threw the stone weapons in their hands directly.

Their bodies were twisted and strange, wrapped in bandages like withered mummies, their faces covered by bronze masks.

The squad of mummies that had originally been there had long since vanished without a trace, leaving only specks of ash that merged into the sandstorm.

And in the Black Desert, several pitch-black Pyramids loomed in and out of sight.

Standing atop the Pyramid, looking at the vast Black Desert surrounding him, Aaron thrust a pitch-black long spear into the peak of the Pyramid.

For instance, regarding the sandstorm that still existed, Aaron did not feel the slightest sense of corruption.

Seeing the flames burning in his eyes, the 'Black Pharaoh' slowly lowered its head...

"Is it a Spirit World Creature—the 'Black Pharaoh' and his guards?"

For example, Aaron's Fifth Primordial Substance—the 'Perfecter'—required the ritual condition of building a Spirit World wonder and advancing within that wonder!

Coupled with the fact that casting a Signal Tower also required a Spirit World Signal Base Station, Aaron came directly to the Spirit World to investigate after setting his plan.

While walking, he also revealed the inhuman form of the 'Furnace', letting large swaths of pure white flames linger around his body.

"Hmm... it seems I don't have to eat them directly; burning them allows me to absorb the Spirituality just the same... the more succulent the fuel, the more Spirituality is gained after incineration."

Arriving along with the sandstorm was a squad of strange priests and guards.

The end of the long spear split open, revealing the metallic luster within, moving like flowing water.

Immediately, it was enveloped by pure white flames, melting slowly and firmly under the scorching of the 'Furnace Fire'.

"As expected... in the Spirit World, all things have spirits."

On the high platform sat a true 'Black Pharaoh'!

It wore a golden lion-bull horn mask, golden snake-shaped pendants hung from both earlobes, and its body bore eagle patterns.

At its feet lay a lazy black cat.

The scorching temperature spread continuously to the surroundings as the Fireball advanced; whether it was the thrusting stone knives and stone axes, or the Curses, all were burned to nothingness under this high-temperature flame, turning into nourishment for Aaron.

One base station was clearly far from enough; several more needed to be set up.

"Although the Great Wetland is safe, it is not suitable."

A certain secret place in the Spirit World.

He looked at the Mysterious Talismans on the gray-white spearhead, and before it could explode, he opened his mouth and ate the stone long spear just like chewing sugarcane.

Finally, it wrapped around the tip of the Pyramid, fixing itself into a base, while the tip continued to rise and branch upward... forming the shape of a trident.

Aaron stood under the last newly completed signal base station, the Spiritual Crystal of the 'Damo Statue' appearing in his hand.

Thinking of this, he no longer hesitated and walked toward those black Pyramids.

Aaron obtained the authority to build a 'Signal Tower' within the Pyramid; the 'Black Pharaoh' and the mummy guards could not destroy it and were even required to provide Protection.

Aaron revealed a faint smile and strode forward.

The gray-white spear pierced the air, killing toward Aaron at extreme speed, only to be caught by him with one hand.

Aaron stepped up, arriving before the 'Black Pharaoh' wearing the golden mask, and locked eyes with it.

A moment later, a fresh Spirit World Contract was produced.

No matter what is burned, there is Spirituality to be gained, and occasionally there are big gift packages; although these mummies are a bit ugly and don't speak well, they provide Spirituality at least!

Squads of mummy guards surged out from the Pyramid like a tide, carrying a massive high platform.

Furthermore, almost the opening of the Fifth and Sixth Primordial Substances for the vast majority of Extraordinaries is closely related to the Spirit World!

Many complex rays of light occupied the surface, emitting colorful hues.

"Although this place isn't exactly safe, it has the advantage of having a group of natural guards; it's not qualified to build a wonder, but building a signal base station according to local conditions is absolutely no problem!"

Sometimes, Aaron really wanted to burn these Pyramids to the ground, or even transform into a fire demon and set fire to three thousand miles of the Spirit World; who knows how abundant the accumulated Spirituality would be...

Aaron closed his eyes, as if savoring the feeling, and then he arrived before a Pyramid two hundred meters high.

'Besides this, the Fallen City Diate, and even the area corresponding to Yanan Town, are not very suitable...'

The mummies carrying the high platform turned into ash one after another, causing the platform to land straight on the ground.

Crack!

To be honest, he really liked it here.

Bang bang!

"Whether building a wonder or a base station, or mixing the two together to construct an integrated building, the prerequisite is to keep it secret!"

Layer upon layer of spiritual light emerged from the Pyramid, blending with the long spear.

A massive waterfall rushed from bottom to top, the falling raindrops half-suspended in the air.

When all these arrangements were completed, Aaron waved his hand at the 'Black Pharaoh' and strode away.

And at the end of the contract, it was specifically noted—Aaron could not burn or eat the 'Black Pharaoh' and its guards without reason.

"'Burst'?"

He looked at the incomplete Mysterious Talismans on the grayish-white spearhead and nodded: "If it were an ordinary Spirit Body, being wounded by this kind of Artifact would be very troublesome, but an Extraordinary with a physical body has much stronger resistance to corruption."

"We can build a few more transit stations; it doesn't hurt if they are destroyed anyway, we can just replenish them later."

Aaron walked forward a few steps, and his vision was suddenly filled with a pitch-black sandstorm.

In their hands, they were still holding grayish-white stone weapons.

Behind him, the 'Black Pharaoh' wearing a golden mask moved with slight stiffness, uttering vague Spirit World Language from beneath the mask, as if praying that he would never return again.

"Even after becoming a 'Furnace', every act of forging still allows me to benefit from it..."

Whoosh! Whoosh!

Aaron looked toward those few tall black Pyramids, his eyes gradually brightening.

Glancing at the surrounding environment, Aaron left directly.

Without knowing when, he had already arrived at the edge of a Black Desert.

Aaron looked at the seemingly dull mummy guards, a ball of pure white flame appearing in his hand, which he tossed over casually.

"Any forging is actually just a process of burning, drawing out, and solidifying... As a 'Maker', what one needs to do is guide the Spirituality, achieve a miracle, and then fix it!"

Aaron let his inspiration wander, forging this portion of the Sixth Primordial Substance's Spirituality in accordance with the Natural Sciences.

His fingers were fair, delicate, and nimble, as if he were a musician holding a baton, conducting a massive symphony orchestra.

A large number of colorful bubbles swirled around him, and he needed to choose the effect he wanted—'Dream'!
