Chapter 854 Desert Upheaval

• Refining multiple batches of ingredients at once required immense divine sense to suppress the surging spiritual energy, because once it erupted, the amount of spiritual energy would be overwhelming.
• After fusing 20 sets of Ironbone Pill ingredients, he had to keep the flames roaring so the spiritual energy remained active and didn't solidify. Then he added another 20 sets, refined those as well, merged them into the already-processed spiritual energy, and compressed everything further, raising its density and purity.
• This process had to continue without pause. In the past, Sebastian's alchemy sessions were short, but this time, it would take far longer. He estimated at least half a year, because once the spiritual energy reached a certain level of compression, suppressing it would require even more time.
