685: C685 Old

C685 Old

When it was dawn of the fourth day, Elder Ling's refining had finally ended. Looking at his appearance, he was clearly much more tired than when they first met, and Xian Xiaoguo could not help but ask worriedly: "Elder Ling, are you alright?"2

"It's fine, it's fine." Elder Ling could not help but laugh bitterly, "Looks like I'm really getting old. If this were in the past, this would have been like playing, how could I be in such a sorry state?"

Elder Ling did not make things up. Moreover, to a high level alchemist, the higher the grade of the medicinal pellet, the more troublesome it was to refine it, and the longer the effort and time required.

For some pills, not to mention concocting them continuously for a few days, they could even be used for a few months. For a period of time like this, if one did not have sufficient soul power and mental state, the result would probably be a failure.

In the Elder Ling's career, there had once been a record for refining pills. Until now, no one had been able to break that record, and that was to continuously refine pills for half a year.

(A special explanation is needed here. Refining a medicinal pellet that has lasted more than three months is already not something that can be accomplished by one person. Most of them require several people, or even dozens of alchemist s to refine it together.

After all, whether it's your body, mind, soul power, etc., it's impossible for you to not rest at all and continue for so long without using up all of it. You definitely have to rest during this period of time as well, so when you are resting, there will be other alchemist s to help you control the refinement of the medicinal pellet.

Of course, these alchemist s who helped, were basically just helping out with some menial work. The real leader of the group was still only a single person, so in general, no matter how many people participated in the concocting of this pill, only that one person would get 90% or more of the result. The pills that were refined would only be in his name.

In fact, there was no such thing as fair or unfair because he had used more than 90% of his energy and time to concoct this pill. Without him, even if dozens of people were tied together, they still might not be able to produce more than 10%.

When Elder Ling broke this record, the number of people participating amounted to several tens of people, and as a result, regardless of whether it was the medicinal ingredients used to refine the medicinal pellet or the secret recipe, he had invested more than ninety percent of his effort into it.

At that time, even if he was tired, he wouldn't be as exhausted as he was now, to the point that he didn't even need three days to refine pills that were as long as one or two months. He was in an extremely sorry state.

Of course, being older was indeed a bit old, furthermore, he had been imprisoned by the golden pearl for a few hundred years back then. Most importantly, compared to his peak condition, he had not even reached a tenth of his current condition.

Moreover, because Ye Xuan's injuries were really too severe, no matter if it was the pellets or the spirit liquid, they had to ensure that it was of the highest quality, because this was also one of the reasons that caused such a huge loss in Elder Ling's energy.

Although Elder Ling said that he was fine, Xian Xiaoguo was still quite worried. After saying a few more words of concern, he looked towards Ye Xuan who was in the puddle and asked: "Elder Ling, what do we need to do next?"
