At this point, Xiao Ran couldn't find a reason to refute, and he couldn't help but feel grateful.
He knew that Lin Yi was only saying this to save him face. He was obviously helping him, but he insisted on saying that he needed the No.1 Immortal's Cave at the foot of the mountain.
There probably wasn't a second boss in this world who took care of his underlings like this!
"Then … I'll be thick-skinned and accept it." Xiao Ran finally nodded heavily and didn't say anything else.
With his reserved and low-key temperament, no matter how much Lin Yi helped him, he wouldn't say it out loud. However, if Lin Yi needed anything in the future, he would definitely be the most proactive one and wouldn't hesitate to go through water and tread on fire.
In fact, Xiao Ran understood that it was only because he kindly reminded Lin Yi about Lou Tai Shou during the Heaven Stage trial in the secular world. In fact, with Lin Yi's strength, he didn't need his reminder at all.
However, it was just this kind gesture that allowed him to obtain Lin Yi's friendship and come all the way until now! He knew that although Lin Yi didn't show any care during the trial and was still very indifferent when they arrived at Heaven Stage Island, it was most likely because of this that Lin Yi was able to accept him in the end!
Similarly, although Lin Yi also took care of Qiao Hongcai, he didn't give him as much benefits! This was something that Xiao Ran understood.
"That's a good brother!" Lin Yi smiled and patted his shoulder. After a pause, he said, "You and Hongcai don't need to worry about the spiritual medicine seeds like the others for a period of time. I think you can take this opportunity to prepare to break through to the Foundation Establishment Realm. After all, the two of you have Foundation Establishment Pills in your hands. There's no need to drag this matter for too long."
The bitter senior brother nodded in agreement. "Junior Brother Lin is right. For us cultivators, no matter what rules, the most important thing is still strength. As long as you're strong, everything can be negotiated. Even if you fall behind temporarily, you can still catch up in the future. However, if you're not strong enough, no matter how good the position is, it's useless. So, strength is the way. "
"Breaking through to the Foundation Establishment Stage? That's exactly what I'm thinking! "Qiao Hongcai said excitedly.
To be honest. Among them, he was the one who disliked Meng Tong the most. He could only watch helplessly as Meng Tong, this kind of trash, succeeded in building his foundation, while he himself was guarding the Building Foundation Pill, not daring to take it. Needless to say, this kind of feeling was extremely sullen.
If he maintained this state, when Meng Tong came to challenge him, he would be facing an early-stage Foundation Building expert. He, as a Heaven Rank Great Perfection expert, didn't have the power to fight back. When the time came, he would inevitably be defeated by Meng Tong. There was no need to mention that kind of feeling. Just thinking about it made him feel so sullen that he would go crazy!
Therefore, he had this plan for a long time. After listening to Lin Yi and Senior Brother Ku Bi's suggestions, he made up his mind. Regardless of whether he succeeded or not, he had to find an opportunity to attempt it in the near future.
If he succeeded, then he would have the power to fight against Meng Tong!
However, in comparison, Xiao Ran, whose strength and foundation were stronger and deeper than his, seemed a little hesitant. "This … You're right, but without complete confidence, I'm afraid I'll waste this rare Building Foundation Pill …"
He had already touched the barrier between Heaven Rank Great Perfection and early-stage Foundation Building. But for something like building a foundation, even with the help of the Building Foundation Pill, there was still a possibility of failure. Moreover, the possibility was not small.
With Xiao Ran's temperament of seeking for perfection, unless he was really prepared to the extreme, he wouldn't easily take this step.
"You, although this temperament of yours is a good thing, sometimes it's better to take the initiative to take some risks. But sometimes, it was better to take the initiative to take some risks. After all, how could there be no wind and no danger when cultivating? Even if you fail this time, there's still a next time, right? "Lin Yi smiled and explained.
In his opinion. Xiao Ran was a very reliable person, and his talent was not bad. In the future, he would definitely become a great person. It was just that this guy was a little too eager for perfection, and sometimes he would become a burden.
On the contrary, Qiao Hongcai, who was actually not as confident as he was in breaking through to Foundation Building, was more courageous to take this step. Although this was a kind of rash in many people's eyes, sometimes, it was also a manifestation of a kind of drive!
After all, something like cultivation had always been sailing against the current. If one didn't take this step, he might fall behind from then on, and never have the chance to surpass others again.
Hearing this, Xiao Ran couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.
Actually, Lin Yi didn't need to say this, he already knew this principle. In fact, his understanding of himself was much clearer than that of a bystander like Lin Yi. Being steady and low-key was an advantage, but sometimes it seemed to be overcautious, and it became a character weakness.
With his current strength, in addition to the Foundation Building Pills he obtained from the Back Mountain Trial, the certainty of breaking through to Foundation Building was not small, about 70%.
If it was Qiao Hongcai, there was no need for Lin Yi and Senior Apprentice Brother Ku Bi to remind her. She would already be eager to break through to Foundation Building, but he was still preparing. In his opinion, 70% certainty was not enough, and he had to wait until he had 80% or even 90% certainty before he was willing to take the risk.
It couldn't be said that he was timid, this was completely his personality. He didn't make a move, but when he made a move, he must have absolute certainty.
In other times, this wasn't a bad thing, but in the Welcoming Pavilion where the competition between the newcomers was fierce, it wasn't very suitable. Blindly hesitating like this, even if he originally had an advantage in strength, he would gradually be caught up to, or even surpassed.
Under the encouraging gazes of Lin Yi and the others, Xiao Ran finally took a deep breath, nodded, and said in a deep voice, "Okay, I understand."
He couldn't always be ridden by trash like Meng Tong. If nothing unexpected happened, he would soon have to face him in the Challenge Competition. At that time, he definitely couldn't let Lin Yi lose face. 70% certainty was already not small, it was time to take the risk!
After all, Lin Yi's enemies were people like Xu Lingchong and Meng Jueguang. If even to deal with a small fry like Meng Tong, he still had to force Lin Yi to personally take action, then it would be the negligence of him, Xiao Ran, and Qiao Hongcai, these little brothers!
Lin Yi and Senior Apprentice Brother Ku Bi looked at each other, and nodded in relief.
As a small group, it was obviously not enough for Lin Yi to be strong alone. Everyone had to be strong, and be able to take charge of an area by themselves. That way, in the future, they would have a greater right to speak, and crush all the tigers that stood in their way.
The few of them decided on a plan, and immediately went to look for Meng Jueguang. After all, putting aside the matter of breaking through to Foundation Building, the matter of exchanging Immortal's Cave between the newcomers still required the approval of this Senior Apprentice Brother in charge.
