> Dan Heng has to be at least 30 years old tho, since the exile of Lingsha's master happened 30 years ago.
Hm, well... Yunhua was exiled due to the growing Sanctus Medicus faction in the Alchemy Commission. This was a revitalization of an old and faded out cult worshipping the Abundance, and it was revitalized by Dan Shu after she turned to the Abundance after PTSD from the Third Abundance War.
The Third Abundance War has an actual date -- 8072 Star Calendar. Present day is 8100 (the Luofu crisis took place around March. The current wardance is taking place in August). That's 28 years in between. Maybe less, since it probably took Dan Shu some time to build her cult and political power, and Yunhua to notice and try to fight it.
But still, something like 26-27 can still be rounded to 30 for a round number. As the absolute minimum age Dan Heng could be, I guess.
> Even assuming she was processed immediately, there's still trial time and stuff.
Eh, but if we throw that in, his age can still be possibly in the 100-200s, depending on how the average trial time the trial took. That is, assuming the trial started over her dosing of Dan Heng, and then later ended with her loss after Dan Shu came into power.
> Taoran did say Dan Feng's trial took a very long time.
I think someone would've noted it if it took more than 500 years, lol. Also, if it took that long, he'd already be near the end of his natural lifespan. In which case, what is the point of forced molting? o_O
> I think egg hatching might be shorter simply because we have that one quest where the Vidyadhara dates the same woman over the course of 4 cycles.
Eh, that's just one person though. It seems egg development rates and post-hatching growth rates differ between person to person.
Like in Scalegorge Waterscape, there's at least one egg that belongs to one of Dan Feng's guards, who still clings to his/her old memories and hasn't hatched yet.
