Seeing this, Luo Fan also left the space.
His next arrangement was combat training.
However, this time it would take place in a trial space on Liumang Star.
Liumang Star had many World Master realms.
Within these realms, various demonic beasts or other races were specifically raised for top elites to hunt.
Even the weakest of these demonic beasts were stellar-level.
Originally, Luo Fan's task for today was to hunt ten stellar-level third-rank demonic beasts.
But he was too lazy to do that.
Instead, he went directly to his room in the Virtual Universe and submitted a combat assessment request.
After clicking the confirmation, Luo Fan immediately appeared in a space resembling a slaughter arena.
The next moment, a target appeared in front of him.
"Please attack the target in front of you with full force."
Without hesitation, Luo Fan summoned the Tide God Blade into his hand.
The next moment, he swung.
Boom—
The Tide God Blade struck the target.
The target was instantly split in two with a single slash.
"Congratulations, top elite Ward. You have stepped onto the threshold of the Origin Law of Water."
Ward was the identity of Luo Fan's avatar.
After the test, Luo Fan returned directly to his room.
He no longer needed to concern himself with the company's arrangements.
At the same time, he received 10,000 elite points.
A single elite point was roughly equivalent to 100 million Universe Coins.
When he first joined the company, he had only received 100 elite points, and that was because he was a top elite.
Every 1,000 elite points could be used to receive ten hours of guidance from a World Master recognized by a Law.
Since Luo Fan had just received guidance from Sara, he wasn't planning to use any points yet.
He intended to first find a place to test how much his strength had improved.
…
Law Source Secret Realm.
The Spatial Worm avatar immediately appeared in front of a cosmic-level first-rank Water Source Beast.
This was the same Water Source Beast that his true body had hunted after breaking through the stellar level!
It was the one that had mastered the Water Domain.
The moment it saw Luo Fan, the Water Source Beast let out a roar.
"Roar!"
It recognized the strange creature that had once intruded into its territory.
[Task: Kill a cosmic-level first-rank Water Source Beast mastering the third level of the Water Domain. Reward: Comprehension of the Origin Law of Water +3,000; Domain Lord-level Water Source Crystals ×3.]
Luo Fan didn't hesitate and immediately drew the Ice Mist Battle Blade.
Since the Tide God Blade had not yet been delivered, he was still temporarily using the Ice Mist Battle Blade.
However, after stepping onto the threshold of the Laws, he had also mastered the fourth move of the blade's secret technique, Blade of the Ice Mist.
The next moment, Luo Fan slashed forward.
He condensed his comprehension of the Origin Law of Water into the blade.
The Water Domain then enveloped the surrounding area.
In an instant, a massive surge of mist erupted.
Tiny droplets within the mist immediately transformed into ice spikes.
As Luo Fan slashed, all the ice spikes shot toward the Water Source Beast.
These ice spikes were no ordinary projectiles, each carried the power of the ninth level of the Water Domain.
It was a small trick Sara had taught him.
Although the ice spikes couldn't pierce the Water Source Beast's exterior,
they could channel the cold energy of the Water Domain directly into its body.
This caused the beast's movements to slow and its thinking to become sluggish.
If it were a weaker opponent, it could be frozen to death outright.
The Water Source Beast noticed something was wrong.
It attempted to use its own domain to dispel the cold within.
However, under Sara's guidance, the chill had penetrated to its very bones.
Even for a Water Source Beast accustomed to low temperatures, this was an unprecedented cold.
After all, it was infused with insights from the Water Domain.
The next moment, as the Water Source Beast froze in place, Luo Fan's slash cut directly in front of it.
Boom—
Splat!
Luo Fan's slash spared no strength, striking the Water Source Beast's head directly.
The next moment, a torrent of blue blood gushed out,
mixed with patches of white tissue.
With this single strike, Luo Fan instantly killed the Water Source Beast, its head had been completely obliterated!
Luo Fan looked at the headless corpse on the ground and nodded in satisfaction.
Although this time it was his avatar, and he had used enhancements,
Luo Fan could feel that his current attack was at least twice as strong as before!
The increase wasn't just from his comprehension of the Law; it also came from Sara's teachings on domain techniques and Law applications.
Even with the same element, water, there were many ways to attack an enemy.
For example, simply splashing a bucket of cold water on someone: in winter, it might cause a cold; in summer, at most it would just leave them wet.
What if you condensed that water into an ice spike to stab them?
Or boiled the water first and then splashed it?
Or heated it into steam and directed it at them?
This was why attacks derived from the same Law comprehension could have vastly different effects.
After extracting the Water Source Crystals from the beast's body, Luo Fan continued searching for the next Water Source Beast.
After all, these Water Source Beasts were all treasures!
…
After Luo Fan demonstrated that he had stepped onto the threshold of the Laws, the person in charge of Liumang Star took notice.
He immediately sent Luo Fan's information to several Immortals in the Many-Leaf Universe Nation's Virtual Universe Company branch who were skilled in the Origin Law of Water.
This was a matter of tradition.
After all, if a top elite reached the threshold of a Law, they had the opportunity to apprentice under an Immortal.
In addition, there were five more opportunities to receive guidance from an Immortal.
Normally, apprenticing required the top elite to actively seek a master, usually by asking questions during a session.
Of course, the Immortals needed to be aware of the top elite's information first.
Luo Fan also received a list of Immortals, containing the profiles of those in the Virtual Universe Company branch skilled in the Origin Law of Water.
He could schedule appointments with them to receive their guidance.
However, he didn't book any immediately.
After all, such opportunities were rare and precious.
Luo Fan planned to accumulate more questions before seeking guidance.
What he needed to do now was break this avatar through to the stellar level.
He immediately requested a nutrient solution, something that every planetary-level top elite could apply for.
Soon, the nutrient solution was delivered.
Because Luo Fan had stepped onto the threshold of the Laws, this batch of nutrient solution was the highest grade.
For an ordinary planetary-level human, it could raise them from first rank to the peak of ninth rank in just one month.
Luo Fan poured the nutrient solution into the nutrient chamber, then entered it himself.
At this point, he was roughly 10% short of the energy needed to reach the peak of ninth rank in the planetary level.
If he absorbed it naturally, it would only take a week or two.
But why not use something free?
Soon, Luo Fan's avatar reached the peak of ninth rank at the planetary level.
The moment he hit the peak, the avatar immediately broke through to the first rank of the stellar level.
