Slaughter Field (Please Recommend)

Virtual Universe, Ganwu Continent, Ganwu Base of the Cosmic Army.

After deciding on the spacecraft to exchange for, Li Ze began selecting detectors.

On the Outer Domain Battlefield, a good detector could allow one to detect enemies from farther away, prepare for battle in advance, or even set traps beforehand so others would not know where their enemy was until the moment they died.

This time, detectors were also one of Li Ze's key exchange priorities.

Ninth Order Detector, exploration radius: 10 million kilometers, exchange price: 120 Hunyuan / (120 trillion points) each

Eighth Order Detector, exploration radius: 9 million kilometers, exchange price: 70 Hunyuan / (70 trillion points) each

Sixth Order Detector, exploration radius: 6 million kilometers, exchange price: 8 Hunyuan / (8 trillion points) each

In the end, Li Ze chose to exchange for a Sixth Order Detector. It was the best detector he could currently afford, enough to last him until he became a Sector Lord.

Next, Li Ze needed to buy equipment such as weapons and battle armor.

Although the army would provide standard Universe level weapons after enlistment, the equipment ordinarily used by Universe level warriors was generally unsuitable for him. His current combat strength had already completely surpassed that of an ordinary Universe level warrior.

Therefore, he needed to buy weapons, battle armor, and other equipment better suited to himself.

He opened the Weapon Category.

Immortal Grade Weapons: Customizable and forged according to the buyer's requirements. Price: 1 million to 50 trillion Hunyuan. A 3% discount is available when exchanged with Military Points. (Limited to Sector Lord level experts and above.)

Nine Divine Weapons of Mental Master: 1 trillion points each. A 3% discount is available when exchanged with Military Points.

Nine Divine Weapons of Warrior Origin Force: 800 billion points each. A 3% discount is available when exchanged with Military Points.

Third Order Telekinetic Weapons: 10,000 points each. A 3% discount is available when exchanged with Military Points.

Third Order Origin Force Weapons: 8,000 points each. A 3% discount is available when exchanged with Military Points.

Although he had yet to comprehend the Law of Space Origin, he already had a plan for comprehending the Law of Space. He could now purchase a weapon at the Nine Divine Weapons of Warrior Origin Force level that contained both the Law of Fire and the Law of Space, familiarizing himself with it in advance.

Furthermore, after his soul had been transformed by the Chaos Bell, he also possessed the talent of a Mental Master. He needed to buy one of the Fire Attribute divine weapons among the Nine Divine Weapons of Mental Master as well.

On the screen, Li Ze selected the Fire Attribute Warrior Origin Force divine weapon, the Annihilation God Weapon, and the Fire Attribute Mental Master divine weapon, the Enlightenment God Weapon. He also bought a fifth-order Origin Force weapon, the Crimson Cloud Sword, as a transitional weapon before using the divine weapons.

After that, Li Ze purchased a set of Origin Force Battle Armor suited to him from the armor page.

Finally, Li Ze opened the Rare Treasures Category.

After making his selection, the large screen changed once more.

A huge assortment of rare treasures from across the universe appeared on the screen.

"Earthfire Essence," "Life Tree Leaf," "Golden Tree Fruit," "Luo Ke Divine Water," "Nine Lives Heart." All kinds of rare treasures worthy of appearing at auctions were listed for exchange. Naturally, their exchange prices were equally eye-watering, and most of them were beyond what he could currently afford.

Li Ze had long since planned which rare treasures he intended to purchase.

"Search for 'Universe Level Life Crystal,'" Li Ze said directly.

Life Crystals existed within extremely special Demon Beast lifeforms. Any Demon Beast possessing a Life Crystal had extraordinarily powerful vitality, with survival capabilities far surpassing those of other living creatures.

Many special lifeforms in the universe also possessed such crystals due to their excessively high Life Gene Level. However, because the Life Crystals of special lifeforms were extremely valuable, they would never appear in a low-level treasure vault like the army's, which only catered to those below the Immortal level. They would likely only be found in the treasure vaults of Human Race giant factions such as the Virtual Universe Company.

The main rare treasure Li Ze intended to purchase this time was the Life Crystal. To cultivate the bloodline secret technique left behind by the Demon Emperor, the Golden Crow Body Refining Technique, he needed an enormous amount of Life Energy.

The simplest manifestation of Life Energy was the corpses of freshly deceased lifeforms. The Golden Crow Body Refining Technique could use its secret technique to extract the residual Life Energy within them.

He had not yet reached the Outer Domain Battlefield, so he had no way to obtain large quantities of freshly dead lifeforms and refine their Life Energy.

Life Crystals were also the source of Life Energy for certain lifeforms, so they should contain a large amount of Life Energy.

Therefore, the main purpose of this purchase was to acquire Life Crystals, refine them, and cultivate the Golden Crow Body Refining Technique.

He was currently only at the Universe level and could only absorb Universe level crystals. Thus, he would only purchase Universe level crystals this time. As for crystals of other levels, it would not be too late to buy them once he reached that stage.

After Li Ze began his search, entries quickly appeared on the screen.

Universe Level Ninth Order Life Crystal, exchange price: 100 billion points per kilogram, stock: 631 kilograms.

Universe Level Eighth Order Life Crystal, exchange price: 90 billion points per kilogram, stock: 733 kilograms.

Universe Level First Order Life Crystal, exchange price: 20 billion points per kilogram, stock: 1,764 kilograms.

These prices are truly outrageous. A Universe Level 9 Life Crystal costs an average of 100 million Cosmic Coins per gram. The entire fortune of an ordinary Universe Level 9 cultivator probably wouldn't even be enough to buy a single gram.

"Exchange for 600 kilograms of Universe Level 9 Life Crystals and 700 kilograms of Universe Level 8 Life Crystals." Li Ze stopped hesitating and placed the order directly.

Afterward, Li Ze exchanged for some other materials as well, though not in large quantities.

Once the order was complete, Li Ze had Walli make the payment. This purchase cost more than 34 trillion points, basically spending all the points he had exchanged for.

After the transaction ended, he left his real-world delivery address. The large screen informed him that the items he had purchased would be delivered within twenty days by staff from the Ganwu Cosmic Nation branch of the Cosmic Army.

Without lingering any longer, Li Ze left the Ganwu Base of the Cosmic Army.

Eighteen days later, at the Virtual Universe Slaughter Field.

Li Ze was engaged in combat training against an opponent he had configured for himself.

The Slaughter Field in the Virtual Universe was an extremely important place, sought after by countless powerful beings throughout the universe.

Here, one could select any desired opponent for battle, or fight against an opponent configured to one's own specifications.

The Slaughter Field could simulate any known race in the universe for combat, and every opponent possessed rich battle experience. Li Ze could familiarize himself in advance with the fighting styles and habits of every race in the universe. That way, when he faced Alien Races several months later, dealing with them would be much easier.

At the same time, he could configure his opponent's physical qualities, Mental Power, consciousness, ultimate techniques, weapons, and so on to be exactly the same as his own.

Through this method, he could rapidly gain experience, identify his shortcomings, and train with a specific focus.

However, the Slaughter Field was expensive to use. For Universe level training like Li Ze's, it cost 350,000 Ganwu Coins per day. Ordinary Universe level warriors simply could not afford to use the Slaughter Field for extended periods.

Ever since completing his purchase at the Ganwu Base of the Cosmic Army, Li Ze had spent all his time in the Virtual Universe Slaughter Field.

As he fought one virtual opponent after another, Li Ze's strength and combat power improved at a tremendous pace.

Within a virtual cosmic environment, on a barren planet, one red and one black Flowing Light collided madly.

Upon closer inspection, a human was engaged in a frenzied battle against a Three-eyed Demon Wolf standing upright in humanoid form and over ten meters tall.

Li Ze was currently fighting a Universe Level 9 Three-eyed Demon Wolf that he had simulated for himself.

"Human Race, I admit that you are a genius. With merely Universe Level 1 strength, you have been able to fight me head-on for so long. But with your Universe Level 1 strength, it is impossible for you to defeat me. Just obediently let me kill you." After separating once more, the Three-eyed Demon Wolf held two brown metal claws and roared at Li Ze, its Blood Red eyes fixed on him.

The Three-eyed Demon Wolf stood there, freely exuding a fierce and brutal aura.

A virtual cosmic lifeform and it still has this much nonsense? Doesn't it know villains die from talking too much? Li Ze mocked inwardly. He did not answer the Three-eyed Demon Wolf, merely allowing his volcano-like scorching and violent aura to rise without end.

"Flying Swan!"

Li Ze gripped his Long Sword and integrated his Domain and laws into his sword technique. Through that technique, he amplified his Universe Level 1 energy, unleashing combat power far beyond his realm. He transformed into a streak of brilliant light once more and charged at the Three-eyed Demon Wolf.

"Fight, then! Fight! Let's see how I tear you apart!" The Three-eyed Demon Wolf roared as it saw Li Ze charging toward it, flying head-on to meet him.

"Screech!"

Li Ze's crimson Long Sword stabbed straight at the Demon Wolf's head, only to be caught between its two claws. Sparks flew everywhere as a piercing metallic clang rang out.

Then, golden light flashed across the Demon Wolf's body. Enormous force traveled from its two claws to Li Ze's sword, knocking the Long Sword aside.

Four dark, cold flashes swept toward Li Ze's chest.

"Whoosh!"

Li Ze disappeared from where he stood, and the Demon Wolf's claws tore through the afterimage he had left behind.

When he reappeared, Li Ze was already behind the Demon Wolf, thrusting his sword toward the back of its head.

"Slash!"

A stream of dark blue blood sprayed from the left side of the Demon Wolf's head. At the most critical moment, the Three-eyed Demon Wolf shifted its head to the right. Though it suffered a minor injury, it avoided Li Ze's fatal strike.

After his strike missed, Li Ze rapidly retreated. In the blink of an eye, he appeared more than a hundred meters away, also avoiding the claw the Demon Wolf swung back at him.

"Damn it! You actually wounded me!" The Demon Wolf roared madly at Li Ze, its three eyes becoming even more Blood Red.

At the same time, the wound on its head wriggled frantically. The bleeding soon stopped, and the injury rapidly healed.

As expected, a Universe Level 9 Demon Race configured like this, one that has comprehended Origin Laws, is difficult to kill. Even after using the Space Domain I just comprehended, I still can't kill it in a single strike. Without an absolute advantage in laws, there is no way to quickly defeat a Universe Level 9 lifeform like this! Li Ze watched the Demon Wolf in the distance, thoughts racing through his mind.

Of course, the reason he could not defeat it quickly now was that, in the Virtual Universe, he had configured himself to use only an ordinary human Universe level body. In the outside world, with his 160-fold Gene Level, he could crush an ordinary Demon Race Universe level lifeform like this, even if it was Universe Level 9.

Through eighteen days of frenzied combat, constantly searching for his own weaknesses and repeatedly fighting lifeforms that had comprehended the Space Domain, he had finally used the top-tier secret manual Space Analysis to comprehend the Space Domain. Though it was only Domain First Layer, it had greatly improved his combat power.

"Again!"

With a flick of his Long Sword, Li Ze charged at the Three-eyed Demon Wolf once more.

"Awoo!"

With a roar, the Three-eyed Demon Wolf also charged toward Li Ze again.

The two sides continued slaughtering each other on this barren planet.

After a long time, the Three-eyed Demon Wolf finally revealed a tiny opening during one exchange. Li Ze seized the opportunity and beheaded it with a single sword strike.

Li Ze himself was also left with a long claw mark from the Three-eyed Demon Wolf's final counterattack before death.

The scene shifted, and Li Ze appeared in a room within the Slaughter Field. His body had also returned to that of a third-level Apprentice.

"Walli, how much longer until the staff from the Ganwu Cosmic Nation branch of the Cosmic Army deliver the items I purchased?" Li Ze asked Walli beside him.

"Master, based on the information sent when the delivery personnel departed, they should arrive outside Qiulong Star Castle in approximately thirty minutes," Walli replied.

Hearing Walli's reminder, Li Ze disconnected from the Virtual Universe Network.
