After a day, a chill wind swept across the mountain paths of the Lin Clan territory.
Lin Yi sitting cross legged on the stone in the middle of forest, 'Lets see, what kind of ability this Primordial Stone possesses compared to the Ancestral stone talisman.'
As he thought, he summoned the primordial chaos stone outside,
The space in front of him warped, as if something had pushed its way through reality rather than being summoned from storage. There was no flash, no surge of energy, no oppressive pressure.
Slowly a stone the size of a clenched fist hovered quietly before him. Its surface was smooth, ancient, and even. Its color was impossible to define. Sometimes white, sometimes black, sometimes both.
The longer Lin Yi stared, the harder it became to focus on any single detail, as though the stone rejected being fully perceived.
'Simple looking, yet at the same time extremely mysterious.'
Lin Yi thought flashed as he reached out to the stone, next moment he was surprised feeling the texture of stone with his fingers, cold, warm, heavy and light, ever-changing sensation spread through his senses,
At the same time abilities of primordial chaos stone appeared in his memory, he hurriedly analyzed all these abilities,
Primordial Chaos Stone Talisman is a remnant of the Primordial Era, formed before the creation and division of Yin and Yang, before laws solidified, and before cultivation paths were standardized.

"Amazingly, compared to the Ancestral Stone Talisman, this chaos stone is really a million times stronger treasure. Although it is not a treasure for cultivation in the conventional sense, it looks more like a guidance tool."
Lin Yi muttered thoughtfully recalling the Ancestral stone talisman abilities, which is in the Lin Dong possession,
The Ancestral Stone Talisman absorbs and refines the natural Yuan Power of the world, accelerating cultivation while strengthening flesh, bones, and meridians beyond normal limits. It can stabilize chaotic internal energy to recover from injuries, release stored energy for short bursts of power above one's realm, and assist in forming Symbol Talismans by stabilizing mental energy. It can also absorb energy and treasures to recover strength, though its effect is limited by the fragmented nature of the talisman itself.
'Ancestral stone can stabilize the mental energy and assist in condensing the symbol talisman, but this chaos stone itself can be engraved as the original symbol, which will automatically stabilize the mental energy. I presume no other symbol will be suitable for my symbol master path beside it.'
Lin Yi thought and then thinking of something, his pupils brightened. 'Let's condense the origin symbol, I already was waiting for Lin Dong to follow the symbol master path and gain the return. Now, this is a heaven sent opportunity, how can I waste it?'
After deciding, he glanced at the primordial chaos stone talisman and started concentrating all of his mental energy toward it. He started observing and reflecting its shape in his soul space.
'I am at the Late Stage of the Yuan Dan Realm, the reserve mental energy in my soul palace is enough to condense thousand first grade origin symbols,'
Lin Yi mused thoughtfully. 'However, I am not condensing a standard Soul Symbol. It is a true Origin level Symbol. Probably, it will deplete my whole reserve mental energy.'
The difference between normal and origin soul symbol is really monumental. A Soul Symbol was an acquired mental symbol, but the Origin Symbol is a direct reflection of an Origin treasure… a cosmic law. It was an act of profound spiritual suicide for anyone without enough mental energy reserve.
Lin Yi then activated the Origin Core ability of the Primordial Chaos Stone Talisman. The Stone pulsed with black and white chaotic energy which spread and slowly merged with his invisible mental energy,
He sensed the chaos energy presence as a guarantee that his soul would not shatter under the strain.
The next moment, he didn't waste time and directly channeled his entire mental energy… into the midpoint of the soul space and condensed an invisible stone talisman. Unlike Yuan Power, mental energy was delicate, a reflection of the soul itself.
'The first Symbol defines the rest. It must align with the Talisman.'
He mentally began to etch the profound, ancient runes of the Primordial Chaos Origin Symbol onto the surface of the invisible stone talisman in his soul space, using his mental energy as the inscription tool.
Immediately, a searing, white-hot pain exploded in his mind.
RIIIP!
His mental energy, despite its vastness, was instantly consumed and torn apart by the chaotic power of the Talisman. The risk was immediate: failure here meant the permanent severing of his mental pathway, rendering him a cripple, or worse, dissolving his entire mental state.
'Control, restraint, compress the power, not the mind,' Lin Yi commanded internally.
He withdrew the attack, letting the Primordial Chaos Stone Talisman itself emit a tiny, supportive pulse. The pulse did not attack the runes; it offered the foundational cosmic structure… the blueprint of chaos needed for the Symbol to exist.
