After returning to the Purgatory Sulfur Plane, Benjamin did not rush to begin new research. Instead, he first reorganized everything he had gained during this period.
His gains from this trip to the Central World far exceeded what he had expected before setting out.
Whether it was the Spirit Race powerhouses compressed and sealed away, the ancient technologies excavated from the ruins, or the biological specimen connected to a Level 9 Lifeform that he had captured at the end, each warranted a substantial investment of resources into research.
Even setting aside the most precious gains for the moment, the nearly ten thousand planes controlled by the Spirit Race alone were a fortune enough to make ordinary wizards green with envy.
Of course, abundant as his gains were, there was also plenty to deal with.
Fortunately, he had enough Black Giants under his command. As long as he made the initial arrangements properly, most of the subsequent work could be left to the corresponding systems and subordinates to complete over time.
Moreover, the materials those nearly ten thousand planes could provide would neatly solve a problem that had long troubled him.
Although the Array Eyes for the Celestial Star Array were still being refined, Benjamin had deduced back then that even refining every star in the Purgatory Sulfur Plane would only produce a portion of the core Array Eyes.
He still had no source for the small remaining portion of core Array Eyes or most of the ordinary Array Eyes.
Now, as these planes were gradually taken over, he was also gradually gathering enough planets to serve as the raw materials needed to refine Stellar Force.
The rest was simply a matter of time.
Once the various planes completed their initial integration, the necessary materials could be supplied continuously and automatically
