How to get .evtx Logs Back into the Windows Machine

Good morning, 

I have been looking for a solution to this problem for a while. What I am trying to accomplish is re-ingesting .evtx files back into the system or another system so that I can use a UF to re-ingest old logs that have been exported and archived. I hope I am clear as it is hard for me to articulate the ask. 

old .evtx files -> Windows Machine (put the logs back into the Windows machine)

Which will then allow me to use a UF to send re-ingested logs to Splunk. I have tried converting the evtx files to text with a PowerShell script, but this would take a significant amount of time due to the size of my current evtx files. On average it was taking about 30 minutes per log file, and I have too many to count.
