Chu Zhiyuan examined these patterns, feeling dizzy.

These patterns contained strange powers, making one’s soul sway.

"Haha..."

Ning Dongge’s rough voice rang out, "Little Junior Brother, can you see clearly?"

Chu Zhiyuan closed his eyes.

The patterns in his mind continued to twist and flow ceaselessly.

Just like thousands of rivers surging and rolling, unstoppable.

"Little Junior Brother, don’t torture yourself," Ning Dongge laughed, "You can’t see clearly."

Chu Zhiyuan, eyes closed, said, "Senior Brother Ning, is the Taihao Jade Void Scripture up there?"

"That’s right, the Taihao Jade Void Scripture is on this wall," Ning Dongge laughed, "If you can see it clearly, you can comprehend it."

"What if I can’t see clearly?" Chu Zhiyuan asked.

"Then keep looking, keep comprehending," Ning Dongge replied, "Until you comprehend it."

Chu Zhiyuan asked, "Have Senior Brother Ning and Brother Zhang comprehended it?"

He slowly opened his eyes, no longer staring at the wall, but gazed at the vast hall.

In the center of the hall were dozens of chairs, with a wide Arhat bed in the north.

The Arhat bed was empty, yet exuded an atmosphere of dignified honor.

Ning Dongge laughed and said, "I dare not practice this."

Chu Zhiyuan looked at Zhang Ji Yuan.

Zhang Ji Yuan awkwardly coughed twice and said, "Didn’t comprehend it."

Chu Zhiyuan said, "Didn’t Brother Zhang say that once those three techniques are mastered, it’s easy to comprehend the Taihao Jade Void Scripture?"

"Indeed, it’s quite easy," Zhang Ji Yuan said, "But, I have no interest in practicing it, so I didn’t focus on comprehending."

Chu Zhiyuan shook his head and said, "Brother Zhang, I understand now, I’ve been completely deceived."

Zhang Ji Yuan laughed, "I couldn’t possibly harm you, right? Joining our Heaven-Reaching Sect only brings benefits, no disadvantages!"

"Reverting a level in cultivation, isn’t that a disadvantage?" Chu Zhiyuan shook his head, "What should I pay attention to in practicing the Taihao Jade Void Scripture?"

"You want to practice it?" Ning Dongge hurriedly asked, "Really?"

Chu Zhiyuan nodded.

Ning Dongge said, "Even if it shortens your lifespan? ... This isn’t a joke!"

Chu Zhiyuan said, "I feel that a mental method inscribed in this hall can’t be that simple, perhaps it won’t necessarily shorten my lifespan."

"The Taihao Jade Void Scripture is too powerful for us to handle, oh—I get it!" Ning Dongge suddenly realized, "Little Junior Brother, you feel you can withstand it!"

Chu Zhiyuan said, "Senior Brother Ning, I want to give it a try."

"Once practiced, the Taihao Jade Void Scripture can’t be stopped, you’ll have to abandon your cultivation and start from scratch," Ning Dongge said, "But that’s okay, you’re young, after all."

He clapped his hands with emotion, "Right, you’re young, you can try!"

Zhang Ji Yuan said, "What Senior Brother Ning said is true, Little Junior Brother can practice it, even if you abandon your cultivation and start again, it’s no problem, unlike us."

Their age is too advanced; once they abandon their cultivation, their lifespan rapidly decreases, possibly running out before they can recover their cultivation.

Thus, once practiced this, they dare not abandon it, even knowing it shortens lifespan.

Chu Zhiyuan doesn’t have such concerns; being young means he can afford to mess around recklessly.

Chu Zhiyuan laughed, "Should I give it a try?"

"Go ahead!" Ning Dongge’s leopard eyes shone brightly, penetrating, "Since that elder shortened his lifespan, no one else dared to practice it; you’re the second!"

Chu Zhiyuan closed his eyes, then opened them a moment later, nodding, "Alright."

Under Super Sensing Illumination, these moving patterns quickly condensed into a series of images and lines of text.

These graphics and texts were the Taihao Jade Void Scripture, combining the contents of three secret techniques to form a new mental method.

After Chu Zhiyuan finished reading, he shook his head repeatedly.

If anyone thinks combining three secret techniques can become the Taihao Jade Void Scripture, they’d be gravely mistaken, courting their own demise.

"What, didn’t work?" Zhang Ji Yuan saw him shaking his head and quickly asked, "Don’t rush, slowly comprehend."

Ning Dongge chuckled, "The Taihao Jade Void Scripture isn’t so easy to comprehend; otherwise, even if we don’t want to practice it, we’d have mastered it."

Chu Zhiyuan opened his eyes and smiled, "Where do I practice?"

"Comprehended?" Ning Dongge hurriedly asked.

Chu Zhiyuan nodded.

"Good lad!" Ning Dongge clapped his hands in admiration, "Indeed, a true talent; this time, Brother Zhang wasn’t boasting."

Zhang Ji Yuan looked at him discontentedly.

Ning Dongge grinned, "Little Junior Brother, follow me; there’s a place dedicated to practice."

He led Chu Zhiyuan forward, arriving at the west end of the hall, and took out the Heaven-Reaching Order to stick on the wall’s patterns.

A light screen lit up.

Then a light gate appeared.

The light gate slowly opened.

Ning Dongge walked forward, followed by Chu Zhiyuan and Zhang Ji Yuan.

After stepping through the light gate, it darkened momentarily, and then further inside it was a cave.

A round cave, with a diameter of about fifty meters.

Looking up, there’s a flat stone wall, carved with strange patterns, with pieces of light-emitting stones embedded around the rim, illuminating the entire cave as if it were daylight.

Inside the cave, there’s a stone bed, a stone table, two stone stools, and a stone bookshelf.

Ning Dongge said, "Little Junior Brother, how is it here?"

He spoke as he stuck the Heaven-Reaching Order on the stone wall, and the light gate appeared again.

"You can leave at any time," Ning Dongge said, "If you lack anything, directly tell us through the Heaven-Reaching Order."

Chu Zhiyuan raised his eyebrows.

Ning Dongge’s lips didn’t move, but his voice reached him, "Seems like Brother Zhang didn’t pass on the mental method to you; listen well."

Chu Zhiyuan concentrated and listened intently.

A moment later, he nodded, and began to circulate the mental method passed on by Ning Dongge.

Then the sound reached Ning Dongge’s ear, "Senior Brother Ning, how is it?"

"Very good," Ning Dongge nodded with satisfaction, "Through this, within a ten-mile radius, disciples can connect, as if speaking face to face."

"Marvelous," Chu Zhiyuan praised.

Zhang Ji Yuan’s voice sounded, "The Heaven-Reaching Order is our most crucial treasure, none more important."

Chu Zhiyuan nodded, "Can’t lose it."

Ning Dongge said, "Even if it’s lost, it doesn’t matter; others who find it can’t use it. We can sense it."

Chu Zhiyuan marveled, "Indeed a treasure, so I’ll practice here for two days."

"Hey, such big words, can you master it in two days?" Ning Dongge said, "Then we’ll wait and see."

The two stepped out of the cave.

Chu Zhiyuan sat on the stone couch, immediately feeling his heart calm and spirit settle.

This cave is indeed perfect for secluded cultivation, not only calming the mind but also filled with rich spiritual energy, surpassing Biyuan Heaven, comparable to the outer world.

He closed his eyes, hands making seals, his heart and spirit immersed in True Yuan, beginning to urge True Yuan to circulate along the Taihao Jade Void Scripture.

As True Yuan circulated, gradually a small vortex appeared in the Dantian.

The vortex began to devour the True Yuan within the body, the speed of the vortex spinning faster and faster, like a top rapidly rotating, speeding up the devouring of True Yuan.

Fortunately, his True Yuan seemed inexhaustible; despite the rapid devouring speed, he could still replenish it, without the embarrassment of having a thief empty the house.

Continuously urging the True Yuan, making the vortex accelerate continually.

Time passed quickly, his entire spirit focused on urging True Yuan to accelerate the vortex.

This was the most crucial step of the Taihao Jade Void Scripture.

He didn’t know how time passed, feeling it was a long time, yet also just a moment.

Suddenly, his vision became brilliantly bright, his ears echoed with a rumbling sound, his mind blank.

The vortex suddenly reversed.

An aura as hot as flames burst forth, instantly enveloping the body.

He immediately felt as if he was placed within magma.
