Yang Rai returned and there were a little less than 108 thousand emperor realm cultivators. All of which were hand picked by the leaders of their major forces. The ones who would be going in with them were the various other sect elders.
"Palace Master Yang Rai, we are now prepared to enter this Artifact's Cultivation Spring."
"I will allow all of you 400 years of highly focused training to cultivate well. Form your Dao seals and reach the Open Heaven realm. This won't take long so please do your best. You will have to wait at least five years before the next time I allow any others."
"We understand. And we thank the Palace master for his generosity."
"You are forbidden from poaching my world's people to your forces without my permission. Understood?"
"Understood."
"One last thing, When I made this proclamation. My artifact world was 400 times faster. However I have made it a great deal better. You will be finished less than half the time."
"Could we do the whole year?"
"Only if you want to extend the time till next to 100 years from now."
"Done!" All of the elders said.
Yang Rai knew this would be the case. Which was why he said it. They would get benefits and so would he. Little did they know that simply having Open Heaven Realms cultivating in his world was one of the best things for him.
Thus began a 1000 year change inside his Artifact. There were so many people Cultivating all of the time that Yang Rai could feel the difference this time. It was a good thing for him. While they did that he was preparing a little something special. He took the remains of a dead universe world and practically breathed life back into it. He was attempting to make another one of these Artifact worlds. The first time was a fluke and he got incredibly lucky. But now he has the means to actually create these new worlds.
He started with one. Using over a hundred of the low rank StarField Fruits he had created a system that funneled the StarFields excess energy into the universe world. He added a few glyphs and it began to spring to life. He decided to begin doing this for all of the Dead Universe worlds. At the end of it all he had created another 8 perfect Artifacts now making him have 9 different Artifact worlds. This would be his way to make the others limited to 1000 years of extra training regardless of how long they waited.
He could now speed up the other 8 to ludicrous speeds Which by the way he pushed them all to 1000 times speed immediately and had the Worlds grow stable with the use of the 12 Columns. It would still take around ten years for them to workout the remaining issues within each world.
Yang Rai had also taken this opportunity to raise the power of his glyphs substantially. Now at T13 R2. In tier 13 they require 7th rank resources. So it is less speedy than the other previous Tiers. It was truly becoming a pain to continue further. So many resources and so much time.
