The sky is bright and dewdrops are dotted on the flowers and grass and swaying in the wind.

In the Great Yan Empire, in the Jade Lotus Courtyard of the East China Sea Palace, Qin Zheng, dressed in green, stood beside the Jade Lotus Pond, in a daze.

"This is the three hundredth time, why is this happening?"

"Will I, Qin Zheng, have to stay in the physical martial arts realm, which is the lowest level of martial arts, for the rest of my life?"

"If three hundred times doesn't work, then four hundred times. If four hundred times doesn't work, then five hundred times."

Qin Zheng, who was in a daze, had a look of determination in his eyes. His determination to never admit defeat and his character that he would never look back even after going all the way made him still have no idea of giving up after experiencing it three hundred times.

After calming down, he turned around and started cleaning the Jade Lotus Courtyard.

This is his duty because he is a slave of Donghai Palace.

Qin Zheng's father was the personal servant of the late old Donghai King. He died to save the old Donghai King, so his status was pretty good. Because of this, before the old Donghai King died, he was appointed to manage the Jade Lotus Courtyard. Of course, Qin Zheng also held many positions, such as the manager and the servant of the Jade Lotus Courtyard. The task was still very difficult, because he was the only one in the Jade Lotus Courtyard now.

After cleaning the Jade Lotus Courtyard quickly, Qin Zheng left the East China Sea Palace.

In the Shenwu Continent, martial arts are respected, and martial arts cultivation requires martial arts. Only those with martial arts can break through the physical realm, communicate with the power of heaven and earth, temper their bodies, smelt out true essence, merge with heaven and earth, break through the shackles of human beings, and become gods who coexist with the sun and the moon. Without martial arts, they will stay in the physical realm forever, and it is difficult to achieve anything.

Martial pulse is the place where strength is stored in the body, and it is also the bridge between man and the power of heaven and earth.

He is destined to have no achievements, but as a member of the East China Sea Palace, he has long been determined in martial arts and has never wavered. Even if he failed three hundred times in the physical realm and the martial arts realm, he has never given up. Because the Donghai Palace is one of the three great empires of the Shenwu Continent, the Great Yan EmperorOne of the most powerful families in the country is a place where all the slaves and maids have practiced martial arts. He has witnessed the supreme grace of some martial arts masters, heard many martial arts myths, and legends about defying heaven and defeating gods. With such an environment, it is destined that he will not be willing to be an ordinary person.

Another reason for being so persistent is Qin Zheng's blood.

"Others don't have martial arts, so they can only stay in the physical realm and cannot reach the martial arts realm, but I am different."

"I broke through the physical realm three hundred times and reached the martial arts realm, but fell back to the physical realm three hundred times. This is a bit different."

"Besides, every time I fall into a realm, the power I cultivate is the blood that cleanses me."

"My blood, um, broke through again and fell back. I think Yan Tingyu should be able to verify whether there are internal changes every time there is a breakthrough."

Yan Tingyu is an out-and-out martial arts weapon refiner, and her method of forging weapons is extremely unique. Using the same materials, the weapons she forges are far superior to other weapon refiners. It is Yan Tingyu's lifelong dream to become the number one weapon refiner in the Shenwu Continent.

Qin Zheng came to a small courtyard in the southeast corner of Emperor Yan's capital with a nervous and expectant mood.

The courtyard is very clean, the wind blows, and the fragrance of flowers is refreshing.

Yan Tingyu, with black hair and white skirt, was seen sitting in front of the steps of the living room, holding her chin in her hands, as if in deep thought. She looked like a character in a painting, contrasting with the elegant courtyard.

Hearing the footsteps, Yan Tingyu saw that it was Qin Zheng, and her eyes suddenly lit up. She quickly jumped up and rushed to Qin Zheng, "I finally waited for you. Without your blood, I have no interest in refining weapons. Well, you should have broken through three hundred times now."

"Yes, three hundred times." Qin Zheng did not hide it. Only the two of them knew that he had no martial arts and could break through and fall back.

"You're really fast. It seems like it's only been thirteen days since your last breakthrough." Yan Tingyu's smile was like a crescent moon, her eyes sparkling, very cute.

"After a hundred times, the training speed will be shortened every time." Qin Zheng said with emotion, "It would be great if I could not fall down."

Yan Tingyu covered her mouth and said with a smile: "If that were the case, others would have committed suicide. With your speed, if you had martial arts, you would probably be old enough to reach the strength of the contemporary King of the East China Sea at your current age."

Yan Tingyu, who had been prepared long ago, skillfully activated the weapon refining furnace and put in the materials. These materials were all ordinary materials for refining ordinary weapons, just to verify Qin Zheng's blood.

Qin Zheng was watching from the side, waiting for Yan Tingyu's instructions to put a drop of blood into it and shape the weapon.

"During the 298th breakthrough, blood accidentally entered Yan Tingyu's weapon-refining furnace, which made the weapons she made even better than before."

"After the 299th breakthrough, the blessing of a drop of blood on the weapon has reached a new peak."

"I wonder what kind of changes this 300th breakthrough and fall will bring."

Looking at the weapon refining furnace, Qin Zheng's heart, which had been calmed after three hundred blows, became nervous again and found it difficult to calm down.

The weapon-refining furnace is only about one meter high, and is engraved with some strange patterns. It stands on three legs, and the furnace cover is opened, emitting streams of light blue light. Yan Tingyu looks even more otherworldly under the light blue light. She refines weapons, and every movement is so natural, as if she is one with the weapon-refining furnace.

Not long after, Yan Tingyu said: "Be prepared."

Inside, there was a swirling flame like magma. The fire was light blue. In the center of the vortex was an amorphous metallic water that sometimes turned into a long sword and sometimes turned into a sharp knife. That was the weapon Yan Tingyu wanted to refine.

Although Qin Zheng's blood is helpful in refining weapons, there is a prerequisite. It must be the essence of the blood. Not all his blood can be used. This is the conclusion reached after many experiments with Yan Tingyu.

When the blood is far away from the weapon-refining furnace, it looks like ordinary blood beads. But once it enters the weapon-refining furnace and encounters the calcining of the flames, this drop of blood immediately undergoes some changes.

The originally scarlet blood beads gradually became transparent, and there were even some vague shadows inside.

When they looked carefully, it was very blurry and they couldn't see clearly.

The blood dropped into the metal water, making a tinkling sound.

As soon as the two come into contact, the metallic water changes immediately.

Originally, it was sometimes a sword, sometimes a knife. It can be said that swords, guns, swords and halberds flashed from time to time. When blood drops fell into it, the metal water turned into a blurry person.

"After three hundred breakthroughs, your blood seems to have undergone a qualitative change."

Qin Zheng knew very well that his three hundred failed attempts at cultivation and his three hundred attempts at refining his bloodline should have brought about a qualitative change!
