"Damn, beating myself up is exhausting. Good thing the Invincible Infant isn't too bright." After that string of explosive attacks, Lu Yang was nearly at his limit.
To be precise, the Invincible Infant didn't have a brain. It was Lu Yang's theoretically strongest state.
That theory only applied to techniques, though. The Invincible Infant was highly adaptable, but still couldn't match Lu Yang.
Lu Yang had come up with this strategy on the fly, halfway through the fight. No matter how adaptable the Invincible Infant was, it couldn't be as quick on its feet as Lu Yang. The clearest proof was that it had frozen for a moment when it saw what he was doing, unable to react.
Besides, a theoretical strongest state wasn't the same as an actual one. The Invincible Infant could only wield the power it possessed, while Lu Yang could also draw on his true body's strength!
It couldn't match his adaptability, and it couldn't match his ability to borrow power. Those were the Invincible Infant's two greatest weaknesses.
If this fighting style still couldn't beat the Invincible Infant, Lu Yang felt he might as well use the Everlasting Fairy's Animal-Form Fist and beat it to a pulp.

BOOM—
Lu Yang sent the Invincible Infant flying once more, smashing through a pillar in the
