"Hall Master, since practicing palm techniques can accelerate the opening of the eight apertures in the upper body, what if I practice a leg technique as well?"
Lin Chen looked at Kong Yinglei. Clear Wind Palm at the grandmastery stage boosted the eight apertures in the upper body. If he practiced something like Gale Leg and cultivated it to grandmastery, wouldn't the eight apertures in the lower body break through faster too?
"Don't even think about taking such shortcuts."
Kong Yinglei knew what Lin Chen was thinking and said seriously, "In the Aperture Opening Realm, there have only ever been two paths: from top to bottom, and from bottom to top. You've practiced Clear Wind Palm and Water Cloud Palm, so your method of circulating qi and blood has already been set. If you switch to a leg technique now, the circulation of qi and blood will become chaotic and only delay the breakthrough of your apertures."
"During the Aperture Opening Realm, you must choose either hand techniques or leg techniques. You absolutely cannot practice both at the same time. Remember that."
"Hall Master, then what about Quaking Mountain Martial Arts Academy's Iron Bone Technique?"
Lin Chen had fought disciples from Quaking Mountain Martial Arts Academy before. Their lower bodies were exceptionally steady, and the strength in their hands was no weak either.
"That is also why cultivating Iron Bone Technique is harder than cultivating other techniques. It requires Secret Medicine to guide the circulation of qi and blood. But the advantage is that once you reach the later stages of the Aperture Opening Realm, your speed will be slightly faster than that of the other martial arts academies."
After hearing Kong Yinglei's explanation, Lin Chen finally gained a thorough understanding of the Aperture Opening Realm.
