The twin halberds forged from Hundred-Forged Fine Iron were not only heavier than his old Twin Iron Halberds, but considerably harder and sharper as well.
They had come at just the right time. After Zhao Er broke through to the Sinew Transformation Realm, his old Twin Iron Halberds no longer felt quite right in his hands. This new pair made from Hundred-Forged Fine Iron suited him perfectly.
As for their sharpness, Zhao Er had tested it himself. Without any enhancement from qi-blood or internal force, the twin halberds cut through trees like ordinary soil. Even when he struck an iron ingot, they left a fairly deep notch.
Yet once Zhao Er imbued them with Fine-Gold Energy, their edges became even sharper. A single strike could sink the halberd blade straight into an iron ingot.
With blood-energy force and internal force added as well, he could cleave an iron ingot in two. Ordinary weapons stood no chance of withstanding them.
The only regrettable thing was that when Zhao Er tried to merge Fine-Gold Energy with his toxins, he discovered that the two remained as distinct as the waters of separate rivers. They simply would not fuse.

As his cultivation improved, Zhao Er had begun to feel the limitations County Town imposed on
