In the blink of an eye, another two months passed.
Zhao Lin had opened eleven qi apertures and was about to enter the Qi Refining Second Layer.
This cultivation speed wasn't particularly outstanding. It couldn't compare to disciples with high-grade Spiritual Roots and was only average among those with mid-grade Spiritual Roots.
But Zhao Lin knew this was all due to his slow progress in the first two months holding him back.
He had opened three qi apertures when his meridians were first unblocked, another three in the first two months, but in the most recent two months, he had opened five.
The difference was significant.
Of course, only he knew the hardships involved.
While others cultivated for one shichen, he had to cultivate for three. He had also once suffered the painful lesson of a failed forceful attempt to open an aperture, which resulted in his meridians feeling like they were being burned and boiled.
