Meng Jueguang's words were quite emotional, and it could even be said that his voice was tearful. Even a smart person like Xu Lingchong was somewhat bewitched for a moment.
The meaning of Meng Jueguang's words couldn't be clearer. If they wanted to deal with Lin Yi, this was the only way out. They had to throw resources at Meng Tong, so that he could reach the peak of the early stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm as soon as possible and regain their advantage in terms of strength and rank.
Otherwise, they could only watch helplessly as Lin Yi and his gang continued to be arrogant. At that time, not only would their subordinates lose face, but more importantly, Xu Lingchong, the young master, would lose face as well. If they couldn't even deal with Lin Yi, a mere newcomer in the secular world, then how could they talk about their great ambitions in the future?
But how could it be easy to quickly raise Meng Tong, an expert in the early stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm, to the peak of the early stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm?
If this guy's strength was profound and he had already touched the barrier between the early stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm and the peak of the early stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm, then it would be fine. After all, this was only a matter of a Foundation Breaking Pill, so Young Master Xu had no reason to hesitate.
The problem was that this guy had only been in the Foundation Establishment Realm for less than a month, and he didn't even rely on his own strength. Instead, he relied on the Foundation Building Pill and the Foundation Building Liquid to forcibly build his foundation.
It could be said that the foundation of this guy, Meng Tong, was even worse than other experts in the early stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been defeated twice by Qiao Hongcai, who had only been in the Foundation Establishment Realm for a few days!
The martial arts technique that he cultivated, Thousand Kicks, could theoretically give him a lot of advantage against experts in the same level as him against Qiao Hongcai's Cold Iron Palm. However, he still could only fight to a draw with Qiao Hongcai twice. This in itself was already very telling.
To forcefully raise such a weak expert in the early stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm to the peak of the early stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm, even with Young Master Xu's background, it wasn't to the extent that he didn't have any means to do so. However, the resources that would be consumed was not something that a mere Foundation Breaking Pill could compare to!
If the pill resources here were converted into spiritual medicine … It was definitely not as simple as a few hundred spirit jades, but at least a thousand spirit jades!
Such an enormous price was something that even a Young Master like Xu Lingchong who possessed an exceedingly deep background would absolutely feel heartache to the point of spitting blood once he spent it.
Moreover, if he really had such a powerful pill that could forcefully raise a person's level, why didn't he keep it for his own use? Why did he give it to Meng Tong, who wasn't even a trusted aide?
But looking at the eager expressions of Meng Jueguang and the rest, Xu Lingchong was, after all, a young master of a region. He still felt a little embarrassed.
After all, what Meng Jueguang said was the truth. If he didn't think of a way to quickly raise Meng Tong's strength, then it would be very difficult to punish Lin Yi's group of idiots who didn't know the immensity of heaven and earth.
In the face of absolute strength, no matter how clever Meng Jueguang was, in the end, he still couldn't replace Meng Tong. No matter how ingenious the plan was, in the end, not to mention Lin Yi himself, even his two subordinates might not be able to handle it. What else could he do?
And if it wasn't a last resort, Xu Lingchong didn't want to take the unorthodox path of assassinating Lin Yi. Even if this method was simple and direct, it would still leave behind something that could be used against him. If the people from the Law Enforcement Hall were to sniff out any clues, then he, Young Master Xu, would be finished for the rest of his life!
Before the core interests were involved, it was obviously not worth it for Xu Lingchong to take such a risk to deal with a mere Lin Yi. The most realistic and reliable way was to let Meng Jueguang deal with him!
After hesitating for a long time, Xu Lingchong glanced at the pitiful Meng Tong. Then he turned to Meng Jueguang and said, "With Meng Tong's current conditions, if we want to forcibly raise his level, ordinary elixirs are definitely not enough. If we really want to do this, I think we can only try some unorthodox methods. What do you think, Old Meng?"
"Unorthodox methods?" Meng Jueguang was stunned, then he nodded repeatedly and said, "Young Master Xu is wise, Old Meng actually thinks so too. If it's ordinary elixirs, it's impossible to achieve the effect we need."
Meng Tong was confused as he listened to the conversation between the two. He simply didn't know what the so-called unorthodox methods were. He only knew that Young Master Xu seemed to have agreed, and he was secretly delighted in his heart.
Little did he know that anything that was called an unorthodox method meant that it wasn't an ordinary path. As everyone knew, when it came to cultivation, no matter how careful one was, one step would mean that every step would be wrong. The risks involved were not to be trifled with!
In fact, whether it was Xu Lingchong or Meng Jueguang, they were both well aware of this. With Young Master Xu's background, if he really wanted to help Meng Tong raise his level at all costs, there were definitely more reliable ways.
For example, Lin Yi's method of using the Foundation Establishment Pill and the Foundation Establishment Barrier Breaking Pill. This kind of elixir combination could not only raise one's strength in a short period of time, but also had no side effects. Even if it failed, there would be no danger.
Although Young Master Xu might not be able to get his hands on the Foundation Establishment Pill, he also had a way to get other elixirs to replace it. It was just that each of these elixirs was incomparably precious. Even if he spent thousands of Spiritual Jades, he might not be able to buy them. Even if Young Master Xu had them on hand, it was impossible for him to give them to Meng Tong.
Moreover, even if Young Master Xu was truly righteous and generous to the point that he was willing to take out a pill of this level, it was absolutely impossible for it to fall into Meng Tong's hands. In the middle, Meng Jueguang would have already reached out and snatched it away. How could he leave it for such a foolish trash like Meng Tong?
There was never a free lunch in the sky. Meng Tong actually foolishly believed in Young Master Xu and Meng Jueguang. He believed that these two people would really give him such great benefits. It could only be said that he was really blind!
Seeing that Meng Jueguang had no objection, Young Master Xu directly ignored Meng Tong's reaction and immediately said, "Then let's do it this way. I happen to have a Meridian Heart Breaking Pill in my collection. It was given to me by a senior alchemist a few years ago. As long as it is used well, it is enough to raise a level. It doesn't matter how poor the foundation is."
"It turns out to be the Meridian Heart Breaking Pill!" Meng Jueguang's eyelids couldn't help but twitch when he heard this. He had also heard about this elixir by chance. It was a kind of extremely heaven-defying elixir, but at the same time, it also made people shudder!
