Xi Yue accepted the request “Do you wish to enter the Spirit Refining Domain?” in Sumeru Void. A blinding white light flashed before her eyes, and she had appeared in a vast, empty space.
An ethereal mirror appeared in front of Xi Yue. It reflected her true face, unmasked and strikingly beautiful.
There were several strange symbols marked on her avatar. Xi Yue found them vaguely familiar at first glance. After looking closely, she realized they looked like the numerology runes mentioned in the Record of Everything. The number above her head was “6690007”.
“Does this mean I’m the 6,690,007th person to enter the Spirit Refining Domain?”
With a hint of doubt, Xi Yue read the sentence that appeared in the mirror before her: “Countless people pass through this world, coming and going in a constant stream. May I ask, friend, do you reveal your true self to others?”
Xi Yue’s mouth twitched in disbelief. The Spirit Refining Domain was just like a virtual online game from her previous life, capable of altering a person’s appearance.
Without a second thought, she chose “yes.” As she focused her mind, her once stunningly beautiful features gradually transformed into those of a handsome young man.
This was now Xi Yue’s appearance, a woman disguised as a man.
The light in the mirror flickered, revealing a line of golden text: “With such exceptional beauty and talent, how could such a stunning face be hidden? Your appearance already outshines everyone, and you would undoubtedly top the list of Siam’s most beautiful without any contest. If you choose to alter your appearance, you will lose this opportunity. Please consider carefully.”
Xi Yue’s mouth twitched harder.
Rumor had it that the Spirit Refining Domain was originally a magical artifact. According to the Sumeru Compendium, this artifact had existed only for so many years that it might have developed a spirit of its own.
So, does that mean the one displaying the text is the spirit of the Spirit Refining Domain? I can’t believe the spirit of such a powerful artifact is this ridiculous!
She said without hesitation, “I’ve confirmed my decision.”
The mirror flickered once more, as if unwilling to give up its last chance to change Xi Yue’s mind.
It wasn’t until Xi Yue was absolutely determined that the mirror reluctantly flickered with a golden light. Soon, the once-illusory reflection in the mirror solidified. When Xi Yue looked down, she saw that she had indeed transformed into the appearance of a young man.
“Leave your esteemed name and title to be remembered for eternity. Please write your full name on the mirror. If you don’t leave your name, we’ll use [007] as your alias. Surely no one who walks through the mortal world would want to be known by such a title in the future. You wouldn’t want that, would you? You absolutely wouldn’t want that, right?”
Another line of text appeared on the mirror, and a quill pen materialized beside Xi Yue.
Xi Yue couldn’t shake the feeling that the spirit of the Spirit Refining Domain had written this line with immense resentment.
She was quite amused. Without any hesitation, she said firmly, “Let’s go with [007]. I think it’s a great name.”
The name Xi Yue carried some hidden risks. What if there were survivors from the Greed Wood Domain or the Lou Family in the Spirit Refining Domain?
However, Xi Yue was terrible at naming things, as evident from the names she gave—Little Red Bird and Weizhi.
So, the code name 007 was just perfect. It was the same as James Bond’s and sounded much better than something like “Alpha” or “Beta.”
