And creating a Spiritual Artifact isn't like a marketplace.

As an unquestionably high-end meticulous industry, it's not a place one can visit casually even by common sense. Too many people would just cause more chaos.

So today, Lin Guang came to the Senran Studio alone.

After sending a message on his phone at the entrance and waiting for a few minutes without a response, Lin Guang simply walked directly into the factory.

The scene was no different, with the Angry Iron Plate still parked in the center of the plant, the main area still as cluttered with parts as ever. However, there were many more blueprints scattered around, depicting various designs.

This time, the entire ether pipeline seemed to be operating at a higher power than before, with the baseline hum significantly louder.

In Lin Guang's perception, the factory's large ether furnace was vigorously channeling ether into a large workshop on the right side, where high-energy reactions were quite intense.

There was also a familiar aura inside.

"Boss? Is that you, boss?"

Liko's voice faintly came from behind the door, "Boss, come in! We're almost ready here!"

Lin Guang raised an eyebrow, walked toward that room, and pushed open the thick, heavy iron door, entering inside.

As soon as he stepped inside, Lin Guang's face was illuminated by a red light, and a gust of scorching heat hit him directly.

Liko and Zumama were in this room, seemingly not having started work long ago—everything appeared to be just beginning.

—At the center lay a massive composite workbench.

It appeared that Zumama had assembled it from many different types of workstations and even dismantled and reassembled high-end lathes. The materials and colors were varied, giving it a mottled look. Numerous mechanical arms were piled haphazardly on it, with a rough yet extremely solid metal anvil fixed at one corner of the table.

Still wearing rather scanty clothing, Zumama sat at the workbench, tapping with a wrench as if preparing for something.

Beside her were numerous Spiritual Materials of varying tiers, mostly metals, stacked almost as high as a small mountain, emitting strong ethereal fluctuations, ranging from Tier Two to the Purple of Tier Five.

In another corner of the room was a roughly two-person-high square gray furnace and a giant blower.

These also served as the source of heat.

Inside the furnace, a creature akin to a bright red ball of light and also resembling a slime-like Spirit Beast emitted intense light and heat, assisting the ether furnace in reaching higher temperatures.

[Species]: Rebirth Flame Spirit

[Level]: 32

[Potential]: Blue

[Origin]: Illusionary Radiance World

Wearing black and red workwear, Liko stood there, operating the blower, her entire being surging with Spiritual Power, clearly providing a boost to her Contractual Partner.

She heard the sound, turned her head towards Lin Guang, her eyes lighting up with a passionate glow, and her voice was extremely enthusiastic:

"Boss, you're here! Our furnace is almost ready!"

Zumama also turned around.

Even someone who wasn't good at socializing like her showed an intense spark of enthusiasm in her eyes when looking at Lin Guang: "You're here, just in time!"

It's hard not to be enthusiastic.

During this period, they experienced an unprecedented sense of financial freedom while acquiring various Spiritual Materials, with even seldom-seen materials available that are often snatched up instantly in the market.

Moreover, the prices were fair, not excessively marked up.

Undoubtedly, much of this was thanks to the channels provided by Lin Guang at Longteng University.

Zumama didn't bother with formalities but instead displayed an indescribable look of excitement, "Then let's get started!"

"Just like last time... get a little closer if you can."

"Hmm, a bit closer."

Lin Guang moved to a position less than two meters behind Zumama.

Her figure was extraordinary, her skin pale but not in the manner of Vishdair or Chelina, displaying more of a wild and rugged allure in her form.

From this distance and angle, one could clearly see the butterfly bones on her back, the groove running along her slender yet muscular waist, linking to the thick python's tail.

The lower part, due to its excessive protrusion coupled with the pressure from the tail, nearly embedded a piece of black fabric into the cleft.

It's imaginable... how powerful those voluptuous yet smoothly-lined thighs beneath it would be.

Zumama took a deep breath.

The next moment, an indigo glow lit up deep within her pupils.

At that moment, the power belonging to the Tier Five Magical Beast with Purple Potential began to bloom in the room.

Her body, especially her hands, started to shimmer faintly with a layer of brilliance.

Simultaneously, Lin Guang couldn't help but widen his eyes, and a dark golden glow flickered in his eyes as well.

The feeling of being drawn appeared once more.

The dark golden Spiritual Power unfolded, accompanied by dark golden sprinkles permeating the air, vaguely connecting to Zumama.

Both felt a surge of inspiration.

This was a kind of telepathic-like sensation, not a contract but a partial perception through the Source Stone.

An even brighter indigo light flashed in Zumama's eye sockets.

Without any hesitation, she picked up a lump of Four-tier Liuqing Gold, interspersed with gold patterns within the green.

She pressed down her left palm firmly on the metal ingot, a crystalline halo suddenly glowing from her palm.
