The crimson divine fire burned fiercely in the furnace, and the broken blade melted and shaped little by little in the flames, gradually turning into a black blade blank.
Without hesitation, Xu Milu threw the refining materials she had collected into the furnace to be refined together, completely ignoring the regretful expression on the face of the bronze beast beside her.
Even the most precious materials are nothing more than inanimate objects; the key is to possess a protective artifact that resonates with her mind and spirit.
Perhaps having gained some intelligence within the Six Ding Divine Fire, the two phoenix bones seemed to have a faint desire to escape. One long and one short piece of jade-like white bone shot out with a "whoosh," causing the flames in the furnace to blaze even brighter.
"call--"
Before the bronze beast could speak, Xu Milu raised her hand, and a phoenix flame mixed with golden light rose up and firmly enveloped the escaped phoenix bone, forcibly "dragging" it back!
"?!!"
The bronze beast's eyes widened, and although it was only for a moment, the aura of blood ties was undeniable.
Xu Milu was unaware of the spirit's surprise. She simply floated cross-legged in mid-air, emptying her mind and focusing all her attention on condensing the blade embryo.
The thought of using this weapon forged from Lavinia's bones to kill her opponent made her blood boil with excitement.
Lavinia really wanted her dead.
He remained hidden among the fragments of the dimensional jumper, like a venomous snake lying in wait, patiently waiting for her to grow, just as a farmer carefully cultivating fruits and vegetables, intending to devour her whole once they are ripe.
Lavinia looked down on humans as fragile creatures, but his foolish and arrogant nature led to him suffering a silent loss at the hands of Xu Milu.
— Not everyone can withstand a blow from the Monkey King's staff, not even the Ars race, renowned throughout the galaxy for their physical strength.
So what Xu Milu needs to do now is find him and then kill him.
The shift from being prey to being predator brought her considerable pleasure.
Since the other party wants to devour her at all times, she should reciprocate with a grand gift.
Just imagining the wonderful expression on the other person's face when they find out is enough to make her look forward to it.
Xu Milu was in a great mood. Following the instructions of the bronze beast, she wholeheartedly devoted her divine sense to the furnace fire. Gradually, she seemed to have figured out some tricks.
The refined blade blank was as soft as a piece of clay that could be easily manipulated. Following her wishes, she tentatively shaped it into the form of the Miao sword from her memory. The next second, the dark blade blank immediately changed shape.
It's...quite fun.
Xu Milu began to shape the knife blank with complete concentration, guiding the material to slowly grow in the furnace fire according to the shape she wanted.
The materials were devoured by the divine fire in sequence, turning into clusters of colorful light that slowly rushed towards the blade blank.
As the bronze beast once said, weapon forging should be done at will. This was her first time forging a weapon, and the blade blank would unconsciously change according to her wishes. For some reason, Xu Milu suddenly couldn't help but recall some fragments of memories from a long time ago.
...
When she first obtained the dimensional jumper, her sole purpose was to make money.
Later, when she opened a restaurant, she became an apprentice of Cui Shengguo. The first skill she learned from her master was the Cui family knife technique, which included slicing raw fish, chopping meat to remove tendons, and gutting chickens to remove bones. She learned everything.
I only remember that holding the heavy kitchen knife in my hand made me feel like I wasn't afraid of anything.

She had witnessed powerful mercenary groups destroyed by momentary greed, and she had seen an ancient city vanish into silence as a promise was broken. She had walked through snow-capped mountains and traversed the dark, sunless underworld.
The figure who was initially worried and distressed because of family debt seems to have gradually faded from memory.
She seems to have enough power to protect her past self.
Xu Milu seemed to be watching a revolving lantern of her own memories, unaware that the fire had been burning for a full forty-nine days.
