By employing this crafty method, Su Lun spent several days holed up in the basement, burying himself in decrypting the diary's contents.
The diary contained much encrypted information, so he selectively studied the part about researching the aberration-suppressing potion.
Oh, it wasn't just ciphers, but also language.
It was fortunate that he had mastered the ancient written language of Gunnthra, commonly used by magicians during his previous soul-stripping, otherwise mastering this ancient language alone would have probably taken years.
However, even so, the decryption was still quite challenging.
The diary included many obscure medical terms from ancient times.
The worst part was that some ancient terms fundamentally meant something different in modern times.
Relying on "The Complete Book of Codes" and the convenience of the All-knowing Eye, Su Lun stumbled through several days of translation and actually managed to decode most of it!
