Several Yun Family alchemists couldn't resist trying to persuade Shen Han before leaving.

When they were young, they too were so proud, sitting in front of this wall for days on end.

But in the end, they gained nothing and wasted their time.

They meant well, not wanting Shen Han to waste his time again.

Shen Han just smiled and explained that he wanted to learn more things.

Seeing that Shen Han wasn't listening to advice, several Yun Family alchemists decided to share some of their insights with him.

Hoping that Shen Han might realize something from these pointers, even if he didn't, he would at least understand the difficulty of the pill formula on the wall.

In response to their kindness, Shen Han thanked them one by one.

At 7:00 PM, a Yun family uncle came to the Pill Room with a food box.

He laid out a spread of dishes, inviting Shen Han and Cailing to take a break for dinner.

Sitting down somewhere, Shen Han couldn't help but feel a bit wistful.

In the Yun Family, it really feels like home...

After dinner, the Yun family uncle even had a servant bring blankets and pillows, suggesting that Shen Han could rest here if he got tired.

Actually, Shen Han could tell that the Yun Family, including his uncle, had little confidence in him.

The pill formula on the wall had been seen by many Yun Family geniuses.

In fact, several generations had pondered it.

No one had understood its deeper meaning, unearthed what exactly the pill formula meant.

He was just an outsider; no one could inexplicably believe in him.

But even if they didn't believe, the Yun family uncle still supported him in studying here.

If it were in the Shen Family...

Shen Han thought for a moment, and would likely be met with all sorts of derogatory remarks...

In the Pill Room, the candlelight on the table flickered slightly.

Shen Han took out a pen and began transcribing the entire pill formula from the wall onto paper.

Beside him, little Cailing used her hands to pull open her eyelids, trying not to fall asleep.

But she was too sleepy and ended up leaning against Shen Han, falling asleep.

He placed Cailing on the cushion and tucked her in with a blanket.

He quickened the pace of his writing.

After half a two-hour period, a thin booklet appeared.

Concentrating, holding his breath.

In a moment, small gray characters floated onto the pages of the booklet he transcribed.

[Flawed Pill Formula]

Just like on the wall, with those small gray characters.

Shen Han slightly held his breath and focused his mind.

After his spiritual power increased, he extracted the entries faster and faster.

Especially these gray entries, after reaching the Sixth Grade, he could eliminate them in just a few breaths.

The [Flawed] entry fell into his sea of consciousness, and the booklet in front of him instantly changed appearance.

On the cover, four large characters were boldly written in brush strokes.

"Heluo Pill Formula"

Shen Han didn't know much about pill formulas.

He picked up the booklet before him and skimmed through it.

The errors in the pill formula had all been corrected.

But he lacked a foundation in pills, so he found it hard to understand many of its terms.

After hesitating for a moment, Shen Han extracted an [Easy-to-Understand] entry from his sea of consciousness and applied it to the pill formula.

Shen Han wasn't trying to grasp the pill formula for himself; he mainly wanted to help the Yun Family understand it better, to avoid unnecessary detours.

Madam Yun treated him as her own, and he should repay her kindness.

Today, coming to the Yun Family, they treated him very well.

What he did was a form of giving back.

The purple entry applied to the pill formula, and in an instant, its contents changed again.

The pill formula now included several annotations.

As an outsider, Shen Han found that he could understand the pill formula with a simple read.

Ingredients ratio, control of heat, mixing methods.

With the [Easy-to-Understand] entry, the methods for refining these high-grade pills were all remarkably clear.

He was almost a blank slate when it came to the medicine-refining line.

Even though he could read the content, he knew nothing of the techniques for refining medicine.

If he wanted to try as the pill formula suggested, it seemed unlikely in the short term.

Setting the booklet aside, Shen Han focused his thoughts into his sea of consciousness.

After reaching the Sixth Grade, the pace of improvement had indeed slowed significantly.

But regardless of the slowdown, he couldn't just give up.

The "Gen Mountain Secret Technique" could construct a world in his sea of consciousness, and the "Celestial Dao Sword Momentum" could be visualized and tested against it.

Compared to others, he already had a huge advantage.

He could ponder and conduct practical tests in that world.

This combination had already surpassed the improvement rate of others.

The sound of the watchman's clapper resonates; outside it is already 5:00 AM.

Little Cailing seemed to be woken by the sound, saw herself covered with a blanket, and looked at Shen Han beside her.

Her Cold Young Master had already given up trying to understand the pill formula.

Maybe it's good that he didn't get immersed in it as uncle said.

Sometimes, becoming obsessed with an unsolvable problem can ruin one's life.

Shifting the blanket, Cailing snuggled up to Shen Han and went back to sleep.

Leaving the Shen Mansion, this little girl still felt uneasy.

Time slipped away minute by minute.

Outside the residence, the rooster's crow could be heard.

Upon hearing it, Cailing immediately tidied away the blanket, then sat beside Shen Han.

Shen Han also returned from his cultivation state.

Soon, the early-rising alchemists had arrived at the Pill Room.

Seeing Shen Han, who had stayed here all night and wasn't trapped by the pill formula, they all let out a long sigh of relief.

Being able to let go was still good.

"Young man, come and have something to eat~"

Several alchemists brought lots of breakfast, inviting Shen Han and Cailing to join them.

The two did not refuse and joined them with a smile.

"When I was young, I stared at this pill formula for a whole month.

My head was filled with those characters, whether I closed or opened my eyes.

For a whole month, I was on the verge of going crazy.

In the end, I realized I couldn't even recognize these characters anymore; they became completely unfamiliar.

That's when I knew I needed to give up..."

"Same here, I stared at it for ten days, thinking I had some talent, but in the end, it was all for nothing..."

Their words were meant to advise Shen Han to have an open mind.

Many failed to understand this pill formula.

"Our Eldest Young Master has sufficient talent for alchemy, enough to master even the Qi Recovery Pill.

But even so, the Eldest Young Master couldn't grasp this pill formula."

The "eldest young master" they mentioned was actually the Yun family uncle.

Shen Han listened and appreciated their goodwill.

They hoped he wouldn't become mired in obsession and lose his way.

"Thank you, uncles and elders, for the reminder. My experience with pills is extremely shallow, and I am not preparing to delve deeply.

Rest assured, I will not be trapped."

As soon as Shen Han finished speaking, the Yun family uncle appeared carrying a food box.

"Hey? Why are you letting Shen Han and Cailing eat just these buns when I've brought them some good stuff?"

Uncle said with a smile, then opened the food box and laid out pastries for everyone to share and enjoy.
