"Bone Touching Skill is the most fundamental among the eight techniques of Bone-setting, and only by mastering it can one learn the other seven techniques and truly unleash their power. You could say the height your Bone-setting Skill can reach in the future depends entirely on how well you learn Bone Touching Skill."
Li Jingsheng's understanding of these words is that Bone Touching Skill is akin to the 'Inner Strength' of Bone Setting techniques; only with well-practiced Inner Strength can the punching and kicking techniques be powerful.
Otherwise, it would just be flashy but hollow moves, and no matter how good the Bone-setting Skill is, the level would be poor.
