When Yang Chan left the Medicine Hall Collection Pavilion, he was carrying several new books: *Alchemy Record*, *Xu Yi's Alchemy Insights*, and *Hu Yu's Medicine Manufacturing Record*. They were all about insights into refining elixirs. He'd flipped through them and noted they all recorded experiences with the First Revolution Nourishing Viscera Pill, which he knew would be helpful.
He couldn't finish them in the Medicine Hall Collection Pavilion, so he had to borrow them to read, contemplate, and study in detail back at his residence.
Some of the notes were deceptively simple, but they required careful consideration of *why* the author arranged the ingredients or added them at certain times.
The timing for adding different ingredients and the total refining duration could produce wildly different medicinal effects. Some ingredients could even turn into Poison if left too long, so one had to think through all the possible transformations.
