Martial Arts: I Have Diligence Reward System-Chapter 585 - 216: Paper-Thin Friendship_3

...

Jiangwu's Cultivation Room.

Gong Ling has been in seclusion for a long time.

Outside the cultivation room, Fang Liyan sat cross-legged, looking somewhat like a vagabond at first glance.

He had just taken some medicine, suppressing some of his internal injuries.

Fang Liyan was waiting for Gong Ling to come out of the cultivation room.

Every Martial Artist has a limit to their cultivation time.

How long one can endure the monotony often reflects a Martial Artist's future achievements.

While enduring monotony and isolation isn't the only measure of a Martial Artist's success, it is an important condition.

Being able to endure prolonged isolation doesn't necessarily lead to Grandmaster mastery.

But among those who reach Grandmaster level, a key factor is their unusual capacity for enduring isolation.

This is a profound truth through the ages.

It's not just about martial arts.

Even for ordinary jobs, those who endure solitude tend to be more focused than others.

And Gong Ling has already been sitting in seclusion for ten hours.

Though Martial Artists don't have a strong need for food, normally after about five hours of meditation, most would feel restless and need to take a break.

Being able to endure more than 10 hours of solitude suggests they could significantly develop in the future.

Whether she can wield the first-class mysterious bow isn't the point.

At the very least, Gong Ling's resilience has already earned Fang Liyan's approval.

He's pleased for the Gong Family.

Talent and luck are innate gifts and cannot be forced.

But personal character and willpower are entirely cultivated through experience.

In Gong Ling's life, even her least achievement will be at the Fifth Grade.

She might not reach the level of Grandmaster, but her chances are undoubtedly greater than ordinary people.

Tap, tap, tap!

Footsteps echoed from the cultivation room.

Fang Liyan was lounging lazily, but he suddenly stood up.

He glanced at his watch.

It had been a full 11 hours since Gong Ling started cultivating.

Finally, this young girl couldn't hold on anymore.

This length of seclusion is not the limit for a strong individual, but is certainly a very impressive achievement.

"If she can maintain this state, upon another period of seclusion, I believe she should break through to the Third Grade.

Even if she doesn't break through next time, the third time will certainly do it.

I initially estimated a week's time for her, but I didn't expect three days would be almost enough, a pleasant surprise."

Fang Liyan muttered to himself.

After consuming the grass, she needs to quickly go to the spiritual pool to cleanse impurities; the longer it drags, the worse it gets. Thus, breaking through sooner rather than later is beneficial.

A week is the maximum limit Fang Liyan will allow.

If after a week Gong Ling still cannot break through, he would force her to go to the spiritual pool first to avoid damaging her foundation.

Squeak.

The door of the cultivation room opened.

"Senior, is it convenient now to go to great-grandfather's tomb?"

Gong Ling stepped out and immediately asked.

The long period of seclusion made her look a bit disheveled; the once neat girl now had clothes stuck to her skin, and her ponytail came undone and was messy.

"You..."

Fang Liyan looked at Gong Ling and instinctively swallowed.

Indeed, he was stunned.

Third Grade!

Who would have thought Gong Ling would break through.

In just 11 hours, she really broke through.

It's simply unbelievable.

With Fang Liyan's vision, he couldn't be mistaken.

After all, Fang Liyan was once an Eighth Grade Prince; though severely injured by the Ninth Grade of a foreign race and living a life worse than death, his basic judgment remained.

Impossible to mistake.

Gong Ling really broke through to the Third Grade.

"Fortune has not failed me, junior has finally broken through to the Third Grade."

Gong Ling nodded.

Though the foundations were severely damaged, Gong Ling had to admit the effect of the grass was frighteningly powerful.

Eleven hours weren't even Gong Ling's limit for meditation.

She pushed forward and completely broke through.

Her Qi Blood now just exceeded 500 kCal.

While her willpower could still continue cultivating, Gong Ling did not greedily overuse the grass's efficacy.

The Third Grade can activate the imprint within the chief mysterious bow, and that is enough.

Foundation is more important than speed.

"This...unbelievable, child, indeed you are outstanding."

Fang Liyan nodded, his face full of gratification.

It turned out he'd underestimated Gong Ling.

This young girl's determination is remarkable, and her talent is truly quite good, definitely of the highest standard.

Even though she used the grass, to break through directly in 11 hours undoubtedly requires excellent aptitude.

Gong Ling's excellence surpassed Fang Liyan's expectations.

This is good news.

He sincerely felt happy for the Gong Family.

Yet Fang Liyan felt a sense of regret.

Thinking back to his revered mentor, once renowned far and wide, yet because both arms were chopped off, his descendants, though remarkably talented, almost faded into mediocrity.

Such is the unfairness of the times.

Without a nurturing mentor, a spirited horse may still run fast, but may not reach those peak heights.

Gong Ling is a misjudged spirited horse.

But fortunately, she arrived in Jiangyuan Country and met Fang Liyan.

Regardless of whether she can wield the chief mysterious bow, Gong Ling, having consumed the grass and undergone purification in the spiritual pool, will have the golden bone effect.

Future Gong Ling has a chance to break through to Grandmaster.

Even, the chance is very promising.

"Senior, you praise me too much.

"Let's quickly go to great-grandfather to comprehend the nine styles of the mysterious bow, I want to hurry to the spiritual pool to cleanse impurities, feeling something odd inside."

Gong Ling added.

Many of her Qi points were blocked, and Gong Ling felt somewhat anxious.
