"Beibei, enter the Slaughter Arena."

Yue Ming's vision blurred, and the surroundings shifted. In an instant, he found himself in a vast hall, so large it was comparable to a city.

The Slaughter Arena was a place of great interest within the Virtual Universe. Whether you desired combat in the Slaughter Space or the Decisive Battle Space, both could satisfy your needs.

The difference between the two was that the Slaughter Space had higher consumption fees but allowed you to set your own opponents. You could have any kind of opponent you wished, essentially hiring a tutor.

For instance, you could set an opponent whose cultivation and law comprehension were the same as yours, but who possessed rich combat experience and was extremely proficient in the application of domains and laws.

Wouldn't you then be able to continuously learn from the opponent's strengths through combat, improving your own battle experience and your application of domains and laws?

However, while the Slaughter Space was good, its consumption was truly high. Yue Ming was currently at Stellar Fourth Order, and entering the Slaughter Space for combat cost 4000 Gan Wu Coins per day.

As for the Decisive Battle Space, although you couldn't set opponents, you could duel another real-life Warrior in the Virtual Universe, which could also improve combat experience.

The key was that the Decisive Battle Space had low consumption, less than a tenth of the Slaughter Space. Given that the Slaughter Space cost several thousand Gan Wu Coins a day, most Stellar Level Warriors couldn't afford it.

"Enter Slaughter Space."

"Set opponent: cultivation level Stellar Fourth Order, comprehending Water and Space Origin Laws..."

The opponent Yue Ming set had the same cultivation and law comprehension as himself. Immediately after, he appeared in a desert, and a figure in black appeared before him.

"Kill!"

The two sides engaged instantly, but after only three swords, Yue Ming was killed. The gap between them was too large, especially in the application of domains and laws; they were not on the same level at all.

"Again!"

Yue Ming instantly revived and reappeared in the desert, engaging in a fierce battle with the black-clothed figure. After a brief exchange, he was killed again by three swords from the black-clothed figure, completely unable to resist.

"You're tough, again!"

Yue Ming was not discouraged. With each exchange, with each death, his combat experience and his application of domains and laws were rapidly improving.

Half a month passed in the blink of an eye. Yue Ming had been killed tens of thousands of times by the black-clothed figure. From being killed in three swords initially, he could now hold his ground without being defeated by the black-clothed figure's sword.

"Water Sky One Line secret technique, I can now use it with ease, and my attack power has greatly increased. The Sevenfold Space secret technique has reached its second stage, and I can currently create ten phantom bodies. Even the Primordial Saint Body has broken through, reaching a force generation level of 25 times..."

The consumption of the Slaughter Space was indeed high, but the effect was unexpectedly good. Although Yue Ming's law comprehension had not improved, his application of laws was like night and day compared to before.

If the current Yue Ming were to fight the Yue Ming from half a month ago, the current Yue Ming could also kill him in three swords. This showed how much Yue Ming had improved in just half a month.

"This is enough for now!"

Although he could continue to improve his combat experience and his application of domains and laws in the Slaughter Space until he could finally defeat the black-clothed figure, Yue Ming did not intend to do so.

It wasn't that he begrudged the money. With fifty billion Gan Wu Coins, the consumption of the Slaughter Space was nothing to him. The main reason was that he planned to go into seclusion to comprehend his Godhead.

"Beibei, I'm going into seclusion. If anyone contacts me, reply for me and say I'm in seclusion."

"Okay, Master."

Yue Ming's figure disappeared from his original spot and entered the Time-Space Disruptor's small world. This time, he planned to comprehend the Water Godhead and intended to go all out to raise the Water Origin Laws to 15%.

As time passed, with the enhancement of the Godhead and the Enlightenment Mat, Yue Ming's comprehension of the Water Origin Laws rapidly increased. In less than half a year, the comprehension progress reached 11%.

"It seems I need to change my Godhead."

As his comprehension of the Water Origin Laws reached 11%, Yue Ming found that the Godhead's effect was becoming weaker and weaker, eventually having almost no effect.

The reason for this situation was that the laws of each world were different. Even if they were both Water Laws, perhaps only a portion of the laws were the same.

For example, the Water Godhead that Yue Ming was currently comprehending had about 40% of its laws in common with the laws of the Swallowed Star world. The remaining 60% of the laws were completely different.

"Sell Godhead!"

"Congratulations on obtaining 24 billion Points."

When Yue Ming originally purchased the Water Godhead, he spent thirty billion Points. Now, selling it to the Chat Group Mall only fetched him twenty-four billion Points, a loss of six billion Points.

After selling the Water Godhead, Yue Ming used the search function to look for a new Water Godhead. He then spent twenty-nine billion Points to purchase another Godhead.

"The laws contained in this new Water Godhead have about 37% in common with the Water Origin Laws of the Swallowed Star world. However, out of that 37%, 32% of the laws are the same as the previous Godhead. This means only 5% of the laws are useful to me..."

Yue Ming took the new Water Godhead and began to comprehend it. When he raised his comprehension of the Water Origin Laws to nearly 13%, he found that the Godhead was no longer effective.

He had no choice but to change Godheads again. Each time he changed Godheads, it meant losing several billion Points. After more than a year of seclusion, he had changed Godheads a total of six times.

Finally, he managed to raise his comprehension progress of the Water Origin Laws to 15%, which met the minimum requirement for cultivating the first level of the Water-Space Fusion Law.

In addition, while comprehending the Water Origin Laws, Yue Ming also managed to improve his cultivation level. His current cultivation level had broken through to Stellar Sixth Order.

Level: Stellar Sixth Order (Second Order) Realm: Water Origin Laws 15%, Space Origin Laws 5% Gene: 100x Force Generation: 25x Secret Techniques: Water Sky One Line, Sevenfold Space, Primordial Saint Body (Upper Chapter)

"I'll come out of seclusion for a break. I'll go to the Slaughter Space to fight and familiarize myself with the surge in law comprehension. In terms of law application, I don't need to kill my opponents, but at least I should be able to maintain an undefeated state to meet the minimum requirement."

There were still more than four years before the Peak Genius Battle began, which was enough time for him to raise his comprehension of the Space Origin Laws to 15% and cultivate the first level of the Water-Space Fusion Law.

However, while improving his law comprehension, practical combat experience was also very important. Otherwise, in the Genius Battle, if he encountered an opponent of the same level and was instantly killed, wouldn't that be a joke?

Yue Ming never forced himself to fight opponents beyond his level. That was not what he pursued. But having combat ability on par with his realm was the minimum requirement he set for himself.
