After Yang Rai acquired the flower he came across a world that he would soon learn housed someone his brother knew. It was a rather full world, the principles were complete yet still not even coming remotely close to the world within his Artifact. He flew around and found a 7th Rank Open Heaven. She looked similar to how his brother described Xia Lin Lang.
"Greetings, How may I address this senior?"
"I am the palace master of Gem Palace…"
"Ah, so this senior is my forces guest Elder Xia Lin Lang. It is a pleasure to meet you. I am Yang Rai, Vice-Palace Master of High Heaven Palace."
"You're Yang Kai's little brother?"
"That's correct. I recently did some business in Shattered Heaven."
"I see, so what brings you here then?"
"I was just exploring. Since I'm here, would you like to leave Shattered Heaven?"
"The Cave Heavens and Paradises wouldn't allow me."
"You don't have to worry about those forces while a member of Void Land. My brother and I are far too valuable to them for them to dare piss us off."
"You really have the ability?"
"Since I've said it naturally I can do it. I'll bring this whole Universe world with me out of this place and set it near Void land for you."
"You can do this?"
"Yes, I have my own methods."
"Then I'll be troubling the Vice-Palace Master."
"While I'm doing this, refine this artifact into your Universe world. While you're at it, have all of your members refine it."
"What is it?"
"It will keep you from being suspected of being the enemy. You see the Cave Heavens and Paradises have been fighting an ancient enemy. I have the means to neutralize it but it takes time and a lot of energy. So refining these will give you resistance to the corruptive power of the enemy force. That enemy is the real reason those forces will hunt down other High Rank Open Heaven cultivators."
"So with this then we will be fine?"
"Precisely. It's based on the 12 columns and currently has more benefits than any of the four pillars. Speaking of, I'm impressed that I didn't find any others after scouring the Shattered Heaven. Oh well Go and refine those. I'll begin moving the Universe World."
"Good I'll trust the Vice-Palace master."
Yang Rai pulls the entire Universe world into a bead made from 8th rank materials. Once done he quickly moved all the way back to Void Land and released it from the confines of the world bead. Then went to go speak with Yue He and Bian Yu Qing. He was surprised by seeing Lan You Ruo was out of seclusion and had succeeded in her advancement. The four of these people began to talk. He was also quickly improving his Artifacts time throughout the conversation. He couldn't miss a single second of training. Once the tea arrived Yang Rai began the conversation with his congratulations.
