He was at his peak, possessing extraordinary comprehension and boundless potential. That was why he could constantly improve and advance in battle.
It was almost impossible for an old fellow like his opponent who had exhausted all his potential.
As time passed, the situation would only become more and more favorable to Lu Ming.
"Old fellow, I'll use you to temper my Genesis techniques, and then use them to kill you."
Lu Ming muttered in his heart.
He planned to hide it for now. Even if his Genesis techniques improved, he wouldn't expose them.
Even if he improved a little, he wouldn't be able to kill his opponent. On the contrary, it would attract his opponent's attention.
When his opponent discovered that Lu Ming was constantly improving, he would be forced into a frenzy and go all out.
He would slowly accumulate strength, and when his Genesis techniques improved enough, he would erupt in one go and catch his opponent off guard. Only then would he be able to crush his opponent.
Not long after, both sides had more or less recovered.
This time, the black-skinned elder didn't continue to attack.
He seemed to know that even if he attacked, he wouldn't be able to do anything to Lu Ming.
But how could Lu Ming give up after tasting the sweetness of victory? He took the initiative to attack.
"Die, old fellow."
With the War God Spear in hand, Lu Ming charged towards the black-skinned elder with Qiuqiu.
"Brat, you're courting death!"
The black-skinned elder was enraged.
He hadn't attacked, but Lu Ming had taken the initiative to attack. He was courting death.
Both sides engaged in another great battle, but the result was still that neither side could do anything to the other.
In the end, they stopped and each recovered.
Just like that, they alternated between fighting and recovering. Time passed day by day.
In the blink of an eye, fifty years had passed.
In these fifty years, both sides had fought countless battles.
They couldn't turn enemies into friends because even if they joined forces, they couldn't break through the bronze wall. Only by killing each other and sacrificing them could they walk out.
Between them, only one could leave alive.
Over the past fifty years, Lu Ming's Genesis Techniques had improved tremendously after countless battles.
He could clearly feel that his Genesis techniques had improved.
Lu Ming still didn't know how strong they were.
He had never used his full strength in the past fifty years, so he didn't know how much his height would increase or how powerful his Genesis techniques would be.
However, Lu Ming felt that he was no longer feeling any pressure when fighting the dark-skinned old man. His improvement was also slowing down. In the last few battles, he had barely improved at all.
"Now that I've unleashed my full strength, I should be able to suppress this old fellow. Coupled with Qiuqiu's cooperation, it shouldn't be a problem to heavily injure this old fellow if he's caught off guard."
Lu Ming secretly assessed his own fighting strength.
Although his battle prowess was not as great as the dark-skinned old man's, the difference was not too great. The old man could not completely suppress him.
Now that his Genesis techniques had improved, his battle prowess had soared. If his opponent was caught off guard, they would definitely suffer greatly.
Coupled with Qiuqiu, they definitely had a chance.
At the same time, the dark-skinned old man was also sizing up Lu Ming, his eyes cold.
"I can't go on like this. I'll be stuck here forever with this brat. If I can't kill him, I won't be able to leave. Am I going to be trapped here forever? Absolutely not. It seems like I'll have to pay a price and ignite my Origin Root to kill this brat …"
The dark-skinned old man pondered.
The price of burning an Origin Root was extremely high. Once it was burned, the Origin Root's grade would drop.
He had gone through untold hardships and countless years, narrowly escaping death several times, and various coincidences to raise his Origin Root to a high-grade Origin Root.
Only he knew how difficult it was.
Once it was burned, it was very likely that his Origin Root would be destroyed and fall to a mid-grade or even a low-grade Origin Root. From then on, it would be difficult to raise it back even if he had heaven-defying Spiritual Essence.
This was an unbearable loss. Not only would his battle prowess plummet, but he might also forever be stuck at the Origin realm, never to have the chance to become an Immortal.
This was why he had not used this move before. He really did not want to use it unless it was absolutely necessary.
But if he was trapped here forever and could not leave, he would rather take a gamble.
"Let's wait a little longer. It's only been fifty years. Maybe something will happen after a while …"
The dark-skinned old man pondered. He was still unwilling to burn his Origin Root and completely cut off his chance to become an Immortal.
What did he come to the Primitive Universe for? It was to obtain opportunities to increase his foundation and increase his chances of passing the Immortal Tribulation. Wasn't his ultimate goal to become an Immortal?
He was really unwilling to cut off his path just like that.
"Wait a little longer, wait a little longer …"
The dark-skinned old man warned himself.
But Lu Ming did not want to wait any longer.
"Attack!"
Lu Ming roared and charged over with Qiuqiu, unleashing a storm of attacks on the dark-skinned old man.
"Kid, are you done yet? You can't kill me with your strength. You'd better wait here for an opportunity."
The dark-skinned old man shouted coldly.
Lu Ming could not be bothered to pay attention to him. He attacked with all his strength with Qiuqiu. Spear and sword Qi enveloped the old man.
Boom!
The battle between the two erupted once again.
In the beginning, Lu Ming did not use his full strength. He still maintained his previous battle prowess to numb the old man.
Several dozen moves later …
"The opportunity has come."
Lu Ming's eyes lit up. He had finally found the opportunity he had been waiting for. The old man had revealed a huge flaw.
The main reason was that the two sides had been fighting for too long. They knew each other's battle prowess, Genesis techniques, attack methods, and so on like the back of their hands.
Therefore, the dark-skinned old man had revealed a flaw. According to past experience, even if he revealed a flaw, nothing should happen.
But now, Lu Ming needed such an opportunity.
In an instant, the light on Lu Ming's body grew even brighter. His body rapidly changed, rapidly shrinking until he was only four meters tall.
Five meters before, four meters now.
Although he had only shrunk by one meter, it was extremely difficult and his power had increased tremendously.
The further one progressed, the harder it would be to improve.
Correspondingly, once one improved, one's power would soar.
Lu Ming's height was around 1.8 meters. Four meters was not far from 1.8 meters.
Boom!
Lu Ming attacked with all his strength. His spear was like a dragon, surrounded by divine light. Its power was extremely terrifying.
Clang!
The War God Spear stabbed towards the dark-skinned old man at an astonishing speed.
"Impossible, you …"
The dark-skinned old man turned pale with fright.
If Lu Ming was still the same as before, he could instantly fix this flaw and nothing major would happen.
However, Lu Ming's strength had suddenly soared. It was already too late for him to stop him.
In a battle between experts, even the slightest bit of difference was unacceptable.
Pu!
The War God Spear accurately pierced the dark-skinned old man's waist, but it encountered a powerful resistance. It was the other party's source-grade divine weapon.
"Break for me!"
Lu Ming roared as terrifying power erupted. With a bang, the dark-skinned old man's top-tier source-grade battle armor was pierced through. The War God Spear pierced the dark-skinned old man's body. Berserk power erupted from his body.
Roar!
The dark-skinned old man roared like a wild beast. A large piece of metal exploded from his body. It was a metal substitute.
As for himself, he frantically retreated.
However, Lu Ming had already expected this move of his.
Clang!
Qiuqiu vibrated. Sword qi shook the sky as it slashed down.
Lu Ming brandished the War God Spear, enveloping the surrounding area in an attempt to crush everything.
