Artifact World Refinement

It didn't take long for Lei Jin to recover. Only a few days had passed. "It's Time." He said to himself getting up and leaving his room. He had returned slightly stronger than he had been previously. This time he had to go and find Elder Mei. He was curious if there had been any progress. He arrived at the Artifact refining room in his residence.

"Ah Husband, have you recovered now?" Zi Rong said, rushing over and giving him a kiss.

"Mhmm," he managed to mutter during the surprise kiss. "Yes, I have recovered completely. Is everything here ready? I'm anxious to see the results." Lei Jin said, with a drip of saliva between their lips.

"Achem, Yes. My Disciple and I have created a recipe for the creation of such an Artifact. It should be able to do everything you want it too. However, the strength of the Dao of Space is an absolute necessity. So your aid will be needed for the creation of the artifact." Elder Mei said, with a half frown.

"I see, then we should refine one right away. Unless there is something you are worried about?" Lei Jin said, seeing the look on his mother-in-laws face.

"Well, it's just that you have no experience in the Dao of Artifact refining. I don't think it will be easy for you to keep up with us." Elder Mei said, outright.

"Mother-in-law is too serious. The dual cultivation method I cultivated with each of my wives is one where we explore and understand everything about each other. I won't be lost in this matter if Zi Rong is not lost herself." Lei Jin said, playing with Zi Rong's hair.

"Oh, I see, then let us begin the refinement then. Here, take a look at the recipe we have created. Familiarize yourself with it and once you have done so let's begin. I am also eager to see the results of this experiment." Elder Mei said, handing the scroll over.

"I like the name, Let us see if it can work. But are you sure you want to sacrifice a portion of your own cultivation, mother-in-law?" Lei Jin asked after seeing the list. It required the world force strength of a high rank open heaven to get it to work properly. Not much but it still wasn't something to scoff at. Especially since he planned to make thousands of these Artifacts.

"Jin'er, you don't need to worry about this. Living here in your residence is enough to make up the difference. This Rainbow aura has quite the healing effect. And besides that it's only a month's time of cultivation. I'm not sacrificing any foundation so it's fine." Elder Mei said.

"Still a month's worth of cultivation isn't something my aura alone could make up… for. Ah, it seems Mother-in-law has found a similar method to my own to recover stronger." Lei Jin responded with a thoroughly flushed face realizing the meaning behind what she had been saying this time. "Second-father-in-law is a lucky man, indeed." Lei Jin continued.

"Oh, Master was able to seduce Elder Kong now! Congratulations Master." Zi Rong said, excitedly.

"Achem, I don't know what you two think you are saying. But, I have my ways to recover." Elder Mei said, smacking them both on the head. "Now then if we are all set, let's begin refinement. Let us start with refining 9 of these things. Will this work for you?" She continued. Her face, even more red than the setting sun.

Lei Jin and Zi Rong were both rubbing their heads in pain. "Master, I'm ready to begin." Zi Rong said.

"Yes, 9 will work for now. This gives me enough to experiment with. Mother-in-law is generous for this. Let us begin the refinement process." Lei Jin said, healing his and Zi Rong's heads. Truly the chop from an embarrassed 7th rank. It was nothing to scoff at. Though it was far weaker than anything Elder Mei could have done. It still hurt like hell.

They all sat down and began the refinement process of this Artifact. The energy needed for it alone was immense. This was why a high rank open heaven was absolutely essential to this process. The base of this is not a simple material but rather the purest form of world force. SO The three of them focused on removing all of the impurities that lay within the world force that was offered up. This took 3 days to bring it down to the purest form possible. And then the materials began to fuse into a perfect sphere around the world force.

After a week passed, their efforts reached the point where Lei Jin had to mobilize his own strength in the Dao of Space. He began doing this but discovered something critical in the process. He had to let the others know at once.

"Mother-in-law, wife of mine, I think I can make this better. I'm going to mobilize the Dao of Time. This Artifact can handle it. So please just bear with me for a moment longer." Lei Jin said, then mobilizing the Dao of Time alongside the Dao of Space.

The Dao of space had created a perfectly contained space within the Artifact. The strength of this Dao combined with the pure world force was something of a marvel. The Dao of time had clearly expanded the rate of time internal to the Artifact by 5 times already. Both Elder Mei, and Zi Rong were impressed by this. To think that they could create a world in such a matter was something crazy.

They continued refinement of the Artifact over the next week. The process had finally finished. The result was something quite similar to a small universe. It was comparable in strength to that of a first rank open heaven. Yet the world held within was solidified.

Elder Mei picked up and inspected it for any issues. They did not follow the recipe completely. There could be more hidden problems that they hadn't thought about prior to this.

"So what does master think about this Artifact World? Is there anything wrong with it?" Zi Rong asked curiously. She was also primarily an artifact refiner. This was her foremost strength. It would only be natural to be curious about something like this.

"It's better than I imagined. This Artifact is better than anything I had thought would be created. This is good work. It can support life on its own. However it's current limit can only support a few Emperor Realm Cultivators. Then again that is impressive in its own way." Elder Mei said, then handed it to Zi Rong.

"Master, this is amazing! The uses that something like this could have is truly immense. A normal great emperor with this in hand could mobilize strength in the first order easily." Zi Rong said.

"Good, then we should finish refining the other 8 of them. I'd like to have several of them to run more experiments with." Lei Jin said, after inspecting it. "After that I'll put true rainbows in each one. In this manner they should generate a small rate of natural improvement." He said.

The three of them spent the next 4 months refining 8 more of these Artifact Worlds. Each one was expensive and could be relatively dangerous to refine this many all at once. However they pushed through it and finished the refinement.
