In this chapter, the jade amulet is given to the young men as a reminder of the importance of cultivating the sea of suffering. The jade amulet also reminds the men that they will have to leave on their own the next day, and that the road ahead is dangerous and windy. The young men are reminded that they must leave the next morning, and the wind blows into their eyes. They are told to rest early, and they are told not to fall on the road. As they prepare to leave, they are reminded of their mother, who has been waiting for them for a long time. They feel as though they are children again, and are touched by her tenderness. They ask each other if they can continue to wait for him, and he says that he can never go back. He tells them that he will send them an elixir every three months to open up their "sea of suffering." The elixir is very precious, and if they waste it, they can never have it back. After they bid farewell to each other, they cultivated in the "spiritual ruin cliff" for three months.
