The third stone chamber was larger than the previous ones, but held very little. There was only a yellow jade stele on the greenstone tiles in the center.
It was eight feet tall and three feet wide, crystalline and translucent.
The stele bore a hundred characters arranged in ten rows and ten columns.
Strangely, the characters had not been carved into it. Instead, the surface had been scraped away in relief, leaving only the characters.
Thus, all hundred characters protruded from the surface.
The first two lines matched the words on the first chamber's stone door: [Nurture qi, forget words, and keep watch; subdue the mind and practice nonaction. In movement and stillness, know the primal source; with nothing to pursue, whom else would you seek?]
From these two lines, Cao Jinxing had grasped the foundational mental method of the Pure Yang Skill. What followed was its true essence.
Outside the door, the Maitreya Spirit Child was hammering away madly-a Tongyou practitioner who could briefly wield Faxiang power counted as half a Faxiang himself. His power was inconceivable!
He had actually cracked that thick wall of Dragon-Breaking Stone!
Time was running short.
The Dragon-Breaking Stone would not hold much longer.
Cao Jinxing surveyed the chamber. After confirming that it contained only the jade stele, with no other diagrams or door to another room, he guessed that the [Pure Yang Golden Elixir] should be somewhere near the stele.
Holding the Heavenly Dao Sword, he darted over to the stele and studied it closely.
Each character swept with the vigor of a startled dragon and the grace of soaring phoenixes!
Nurture qi, forget words, and keep watch; subdue the mind and refrain from action.
In movement and stillness, know the primal source; with nothing to pursue, whom else would you seek?
