Destiny True Lord prided himself on being a genius, yet when facing Zhou Heng, he had no choice but to concede!
The key was that this brat not only possessed terrifying comprehension, but also enough guts and courage. Otherwise, what idiot would steal his opponent's Dao while fighting them? He could lose his life at any moment!
Yet Zhou Heng had not only survived—he had successfully learned from his opponent!
So this was not idiocy, but courage and wisdom! A genius and an idiot were sometimes separated by only the thinnest line.
Boom!
The two clashed again! Again! Again!
Zhou Heng's battle prowess was rapidly catching up. His grasp of the laws grew ever deeper. Though his upper limit had not risen, every detail was steadily strengthening. The Five Elements turned in unison, swiftly pushing his battle prowess past fifty steps, soaring to sixty steps, perhaps even higher!
This even allowed him to make up for the gap in power caused by the eight black holes. Relying on his advantage in the laws, he completely turned the situation around.
Destiny True Lord abruptly withdrew.
They could not keep fighting!
He had been unable to kill Zhou Heng before; now that Zhou Heng's battle prowess had risen so dramatically, how could he possibly do so? Against a combat genius like this, one could only use overwhelmingly superior power to crush him into certain death. Otherwise, as long as Zhou Heng caught his breath, he would tenaciously survive, grow stronger, and seize the advantage in return!
Continuing would bring no benefit. It would only let Zhou Heng steal even more from him!
Helping an enemy grow—anyone who did that was a fool!
"Why did you stop?" Zhou Heng was displeased. The Comet Gate opened as he chased after Destiny True Lord.
