Crossing the Law Threshold!

Star-level and Planetary-level personnel also spread out, guiding the three billion citizens through their breakthroughs.

The three billion people showed no hesitation. In unison, they tilted their heads back and drank the pale red potion in one gulp.

Immediately afterward, everyone assumed their stances and began performing a series of strange movements that had been taught to them.

These movements were a secret method for breaking through to become Planetary-level warriors. Though bizarre, they could effectively mobilize the Gene Force within their bodies.

Once the potion entered their stomachs, it instantly transformed into a scorching torrent that surged toward every limb and bone in their bodies!

"Mm!"

"Ah..."

A wave of muffled groans and low roars immediately rose from the plaza.

Everyone felt that scorching torrent merge with their own Gene Force, wildly scouring and transforming their bodies. This powerful combined force seemed to shatter some kind of barrier, allowing them to follow the secret method and condense miniature planets within their bodies.

Although all three billion selected people were Apprentice Grade 9th Order, their bloodline grades were simply too low, and their most fundamental genes were far too poor. Even after being taught the breakthrough secret method, it would have been extraordinarily difficult for them to break through the shackles of Planetary-level life on their own. The odds were extremely low!

If they relied on their native inheritance alone, only two Planetary-level warriors would emerge from every hundred million apprentices.

Even with the breakthrough secret method, at most one out of every ten thousand Apprentice Grade 9th Order warriors could successfully break through to the Planetary-level.

But with Evolution Potions to assist them, the outcome was entirely different!

Driven by the potion's powerful evolutionary energy, even if their genes were poor, they could still complete their breakthroughs without difficulty. Everything proceeded naturally.

The three billion apprentices broke through one after another, their auras fluctuating violently as though countless miniature volcanoes were erupting at once!

Although any one person's aura was extremely weak, and a Planetary-level 1st Order warrior was insignificant in the universe, three billion auras gathering together at once...

The sight still made people take notice!

Such an enormous number carried an overwhelming presence. Though it could not threaten true experts, it was enough to make ordinary Star-level warriors face it seriously!

Inside the palace.

Mentor Yoda looked toward the plaza in astonishment.

The spiritual power of experts was extremely formidable. A Domain Lord Level expert's mental power could easily cover an entire massive planet. Although Mentor Yoda was not at that level, he could still sweep half a planet with a thought, so he could naturally sense everything happening in the plaza with ease.

"You... you gave Evolution Potions to all three billion Apprentice Grade warriors? You forcibly made them break through to the Planetary-level?" The mentor stared at Wang Yu in astonishment.

"What are you doing? What use is this?"

"A Planetary Evolution Potion costs ten thousand White Dragon Coins per bottle. Three billion bottles would cost several million Universe Coins!"

"You spent several million Universe Coins just to quickly create a group of Planetary-level 1st Order warriors!?"

Mentor Yoda was truly shocked and utterly unable to understand. He looked at Wang Yu as if he were looking at a madman!

Even if Planetary-level warriors numbered in the hundreds of millions, what use would that be?

Could anyone expect them to fight?

In the Humanity 996 Universe Country, the true Universe Armies that went to fight on the Extraterritorial Battlefield only accepted Universe-level warriors as soldiers, and even then, they were merely the most ordinary soldiers.

Even the armies of low-level nations only recruited Planetary-level 7th Order warriors at the minimum. Such Planetary-level soldiers were not particularly useful either; they could only serve as guards on resource planets or livestock planets.

Real battles could not rely on Planetary-level warriors. No matter how many there were, it was useless!

That was why Mentor Yoda truly could not understand what use there was in rapidly creating three billion Planetary-level 1st Order warriors.

Have them fight the Blood Fang Star Bandits?

Three billion might sound like a lot, but in reality, after a few rounds of B-grade and C-grade laser cannon fire, they would all be dead in the blink of an eye!

Facing Mentor Yoda's uncertain, suspicious gaze, Wang Yu merely smiled faintly. "Mentor, many things... cannot be judged solely by appearances!"

"..."

"Huh???"

Mentor Yoda stared at him in utter bewilderment.

Wang Yu merely smiled and said nothing more.

Many things did not need to be explained to others, nor did they require others' understanding.

As long as he himself knew the benefits, that was enough.

[Three billion citizens have broken through to the Planetary-level. Reward: three billion Origin Energy.]

"It worked! Three billion points are in hand!"

Wang Yu looked at the system message, feeling immensely satisfied.

He originally had 7.9 billion Lord Points. With another three billion added, he now had 10.9 billion.

Without another word, he allocated points to the Origin Laws!

"System! Add points!"

Just as before, an immense amount of insight into the Water Origin Law instantly surfaced in his mind.

This vast realization was like pushing open a tightly shut door.

Everything suddenly became clear!

"So this is the Origin Law..." Wang Yu felt it in shock.

"So that was how it was. Before, I had understood too little and gotten too much wrong..."

"Only after comprehending it to this extent could one be considered to have crossed the Law Threshold."

"The gap is truly enormous! In terms of strength, it really is a massive qualitative transformation!"

In the original work, Luo Feng had once watched a Giant Axe Life-and-Death Battle between Universe-level warriors.

Both combatants were Universe-level 6th Order. One possessed a fifth-level domain, while the other had a fourth-level domain.

Since their foundational strength was equal, the one with the higher domain level should naturally suppress the weaker one.

At the beginning of that battle, that was indeed the case.

But in the end, the side with the fourth-level domain erupted with potential amid a life-and-death crisis. He actually gained enlightenment on the spot and crossed the Law Threshold in one stroke!

That breakthrough instantly turned the tables. In just a few moves, he easily killed the opponent who had originally suppressed him!

That was the enormous gap between a domain and crossing the Law Threshold!

At this moment, Wang Yu personally experienced that gap as well.

"With such a huge disparity, ordinary Universe-level 5th Order or Universe-level 6th Order warriors with only second- or third-level domains probably won't even be a match for me at Second-Order Universe Level. A greater gap in foundational strength won't be enough."

"However, the three captains of Blood Fang are all at least Universe-level 7th Order, and they also have seventh-level domains. I'll probably need to reach Universe-level 4th Order before I can be confident of taking them down."

"Fortunately, I invited Mentor Yoda. There's no need for me to fight them head-on myself."

"If too many experts come, the mentor can step in and scare them away."

"But if they don't bring many people, then we'll keep them here. Besides establishing my authority, I can also display the powerful strength I gained from crossing the Law Threshold!"

Wang Yu made his plans with satisfaction.

He had money and strength. Many matters could be resolved; it was simply a question of how to resolve them.

Then, he looked at the system's point-allocation panel again.

[Origin Laws: Water 2% (10 billion)]

Before reaching 1%, he could add points once for every billion. But raising it from 0.9% to 1% meant crossing the Law Threshold, which required ten billion. After that, each point allocation would also require ten billion.

It was not exactly expensive. Ten billion could raise it by 1%.

Still, that was probably only the early stage. The deeper his comprehension of the Origin Laws became, the more expensive it would become.

Otherwise, if ten billion points could increase it by 1% all the way until he fully comprehended a Lower Law, it would only cost one trillion Universe Coins—just one Chaos Yuan Unit.

There was no way it could remain that cheap.

"After crossing the Law Threshold, I have nine hundred million points left." Wang Yu pondered.

"That little can't be used on anything else. I can only put it into energy accumulation. But unless I encounter a life-or-death crisis, there's no need to add them immediately. I should stretch out the time and let it rise bit by bit."

"No matter what, now that I've crossed the Law Threshold, I'm someone significant even among Universe-level warriors. Ordinary Giant Axe Warriors only have eighth- or ninth-level domains."

"Giant Axe Warriors have a 50% chance of breaking through to the Domain Lord Level, but anyone who crosses the Law Threshold is guaranteed to succeed. That is enough for major factions to value me."

"Blood Fang had better come quickly and give me a chance to establish my authority..."

Within the Dark Universe.

The Blood Fang Star Bandits Wang Yu had been thinking about were raiding a small fleet.

The fleet's strongest members were only two Ninth-Order Star Level warriors. They were not weak, but before a powerful Universe-level warrior, they were immediately suppressed by a domain and captured alive.

Less than half of the others in the fleet were killed on the spot, while most were captured alive. The three spaceships, along with their people and cargo, all became Blood Fang's spoils.

Universe-level 7th Order, with a seventh-level domain—such strength made one a major expert even among Universe-level warriors. Within the territories of some low-level nations, he could act without restraint.

After raiding this fleet and flying through the Dark Universe for more than ten days, the Blood Fang fleet led by Harold exited the Dark Universe.

The fleet appeared out of thin air in the original universe, in a remote and desolate region within the Blue Silver Empire's territory.

The slave trader Sha Luo had long been waiting there with ten trusted Ninth-Order Star Level subordinates.

The moment they saw the Blood Fang fleet appear, they immediately stepped forward.

As soon as he entered the ship's cabin, Sha Luo was led by two Ninth-Order Star Level bandits wearing blood-red armor toward the main control command hall.

The command hall was immensely vast and spacious. "Bone Crusher" Harold sat high in the main seat, his gaze sweeping over the arriving Sha Luo.

"Greetings, Lord Harold!" Sha Luo stepped forward with a smile plastered across his face.

"Mm." Harold responded casually, then said,

"On the way here, we took care of a few jobs and gained some loot. Have your people receive it."

"Yes! I'll arrange it immediately!" Sha Luo answered respectfully, then transmitted orders to his subordinates. Soon, people went to take over the people and goods Harold had seized, bringing them to their hidden base nearby.

"Any movement over there? That brat hasn't noticed anything, has he?" Harold asked again.

"Absolutely not!" Sha Luo hurriedly replied.

"I've been personally keeping watch. That Lord Wang Yu hasn't done anything at all. He's simply remained on his main planet, and the defensive and detection systems around the planet are all ordinary goods. They can be completely blocked. He definitely won't discover us!"

"When we appear at his planet, he won't even have a chance to run!"
