After three days of deep slumber, Yan Sen finally woke up, much to his mother's relief and delight. Lady Meilan was the first to see her son's bright eyes open, and she couldn't help but shed tears of joy.

"Oh, my dear Sen, you're finally awake! I was so worried," Lady Meilan said, holding Yan Sen's hand gently.

Yan Sen smiled. "Don't worry, Mom. I'm tough as nails, remember?"

The doctor arrived soon after to examine Yan Sen. Despite his injuries, Yan Sen was on the road to recovery. The doctor advised him to rest for another week before returning to school. Yan Sen agreed, and Lady Meilan continued to shower him with love and care.

Once Lady Meilan left the room, Yan Sen's mind wandered back to the conversation with the Time Sovereign. The herbs the Time Sovereign mentioned intrigued him. He decided to show the images of the plants to Yan Sen through thought transmission.

Yan Sen was taken aback when he saw the images – the plants were just wild grasses and herbs, nothing special at first glance. He couldn't understand why the Time Sovereign would be interested in these ordinary plants. Confused, Yan Sen pondered their significance.

The Time Sovereign, sensing Yan Sen's confusion, spoke to him through their soul connection. "Ah, my young disciple, don't be fooled by appearances. The herbs I showed you might seem ordinary, but they possess unique properties. In the mortal realm, they can greatly aid in strengthening the soul."

Yan Sen was intrigued. "But Master, they are just wild grass and common herbs. How can they be so helpful?"

The Time Sovereign chuckled. "Appearances can be deceiving, my young one. These plants contain energies that can accelerate your soul cultivation when combined correctly. Mortals might see them as mere wild grass, but you, with my guidance, can unlock their true potential."

Feeling a sense of purpose, Yan Sen made a decision. He called for Lao Chun and asked him to gather two more servants to collect the wild grass, including the noodle grass, and the other herbs the Time Sovereign showed him.

Lao Chun was intrigued by Yan Sen's mysterious request, but he didn't question it and followed his young master's instructions. As they set out to collect the plants, Lao Chun couldn't help but wonder what Yan Sen had in mind. Perhaps his young master had developed some strange hobby during his time in a coma.

Meanwhile, back in Yan Manor, a servant informed Yan Sen that his friends, Li Wei and Mei Lin, had come to visit him. Yan Sen welcomed them warmly, and the three friends chatted like typical kids, sharing stories of their recent adventures, including the fight with Guan Wei.

Li Wei, being an introvert, didn't talk much with others, but he felt at ease with Yan Sen and Mei Lin. The trio shared a special bond that went beyond words, and they cherished each other's company. For the other two it’s only been two days, but for Yan Sen, he did not see them for 3 years.

As Yan Sen's friends bid him farewell, the Time Sovereign took the opportunity to speak to Yan Sen privately. He asked, "Do you know why I chose the Mortal Level Unified Chrono Heart as your cultivation method?"

Yan Sen, feeling more mature and wise after his time in the Chrono Orb, replied, "I'm not entirely sure, Master. But I trust your judgment."

The Time Sovereign explained. “During my time, I was often alone, and it led to my downfall.

In the battle against the other six sovereigns, I was outnumbered, which led to my defeat. Now that you have two loyal friends, it's essential to cultivate with someone you trust, as it will significantly benefit your growth. I see the loyalty and goodness in their hearts, and with the Unified Chrono Heart, you can cultivate together and support each other."

Yan Sen nodded, understanding the Time Sovereign's point. "I see, Master. I'll cherish my friends and cultivate with them, following your teachings."

The Time Sovereign smiled, proud of his young disciple's maturity. "Good. Remember, true strength comes not just from your individual power, but from the bonds you forge with others."

As the conversation between Yan Sen and the Time Sovereign continued, the young boy felt a deep sense of gratitude and responsibility. He knew he had a great responsibility on his shoulders, and he vowed to make the best use of the Mortal Level Unified Chrono Heart and cultivate it with his loyal friends.
