Chapter Forty-Nine: Shadow Bathed in Sunlight Is Female!

Item: Hundred Refinements Furnace
Grade: Divine Artifact
Reforging: Can reforge any weapon by returning it to the furnace, and other materials may be added during the process. (Note: After reforging, the weapon’s spirit will be completely transformed into energy and infused into the weapon. Once the spirit is infused, it will vanish entirely, and a new spirit will be born within the weapon.)
Durability: 1/395 (Note: Can only be used once and cannot be restored!)

When Shadow Bathed in Sunlight saw this divine artifact, the Hundred Refinements Furnace, she was rather satisfied. After all, she would surely change weapons many times in the future, and some excellent weapons could be reforged through this furnace. But upon seeing that it could only be used once, and could not be restored, a knot formed in her heart.

The system will always be the system. It's a divine artifact, yes, but it can only be used once.

At that moment, Shadow Bathed in Sunlight recalled the Tang Blade (Human Heart) stored in her spatial ring. If the spirit could be erased, then the spirit within the Tang Blade (Human Heart) could likely be removed as well. After all, relying solely on Justice and Bribery was still quite taxing for her.

Though the Tang Blade (Human Heart) was very useful, if it didn't obey, it would always remain a hidden danger. So reforging it was the better choice.

With this thought, Shadow Bathed in Sunlight took out the Tang Blade (Human Heart). The moment she did, the blade spirit began to curse incessantly, while the blade itself vibrated violently, trying to escape her grip.

Fortunately, she was using the furnace now. If she had tried this during the recent battle with the Paradise Traveler, she might not have died, but the fight would have become much more troublesome.

With this in mind, her resolve only grew. She produced the Hundred Refinements Furnace, preparing to throw the Tang Blade (Human Heart) into it.

At the sight of the furnace, the Tang Blade (Human Heart) became afraid. Knowing full well what the furnace was, it tried to reason with Shadow Bathed in Sunlight.

"Wait, don’t reforge me! I’ll obey you from now on, I’ll do anything you ask! Just don’t reforge me, I can tell you anything you wish to know!"

"Heh, a disobedient blade spirit—how unpredictable, just like the human heart itself. Your actions just now have confirmed it for me. Savor your final moments," Shadow Bathed in Sunlight said with a smile.

"Wait! I can take human form!" the Tang Blade cried out.

Without another word, it transformed into a breathtaking, naked beauty, attempting to seduce her.

But inwardly, it thought: If not for the threat of reforging, I would never waste the energy meant for evolution on taking this form, let alone such a disgusting one.

Yet Shadow Bathed in Sunlight merely laughed and said, "If my primary personality were in control right now, perhaps your trick would have worked. But my secondary personality is entirely female; you think becoming a stunning woman would tempt me? Sorry, but my orientation is quite normal."

After she spoke, it wasn’t just the Tang Blade (Human Heart) that was stunned—even Muyang herself was bewildered.

Shadow Bathed in Sunlight was female?

No one had ever noticed.

Before the Tang Blade (Human Heart) could recover from the shock, Shadow Bathed in Sunlight tossed it directly into the furnace.

She added the Resentful Heart Stone as well. After a moment’s thought, she threw in D6 too.

Seeing D6 tossed in by Shadow Bathed in Sunlight, Muyang wanted to stop her, but on second thought, surely she had her reasons.

Indeed, Shadow Bathed in Sunlight wanted to incorporate D6’s fate attribute into the reforged weapon.

The moment the Tang Blade (Human Heart) and the Resentful Heart Stone merged, they resonated together…
