3, then enter the blending options.

The fill opacity is changed to 0.

The inner shadow, superposition mode multiply the bottom, angle-90 degrees, distance 1px, block and size are all 0.

Inner Glow, superposition mode is normal, opacity 61%, Angle-90 degrees, distance 1px, block and size are 0; After stacking the effect becomes this.

4, now add a layer mask, in the menu > Layer > Layer Mask > Show all.
