　　The soul contract of a spirit beast equivalent to a cultivator in the Wangyou Realm is naturally attractive.
　　But Taiping is not the kind of person who will forget himself because of immediate interests. What really makes him start to waver is Bai Yu’s determination to abandon her freedom in order to see her mother.
　　He can’t bear to trample on this determination.
　　I’ll think of a way.
　　Finally, Xu Taiping still nodded.
　　……
　　Late at night on this day.
　　Sister Lingyue, should I be more heartless？
　　In the bedroom, under a little candlelight, Xu Taiping asked the Fairy Lingyue in front of him with some self-mockery.
　　Taiping, having a compassionate heart is not a bad thing. Otherwise, what is the difference between a human and a demon？ You just need to remember that when you are compassionate to others, you must never do anything that goes against your original heart.
　　If you feel that helping Bai Yu to see her mother does not go against your original heart, then do it with confidence and boldness.
　　As cultivators, we seek to survive in the Great Dao, not to live a life of ignominy. And this practice is like sailing a boat at night in the vast sea. That original heart of ours is like the bright moon and stars in the sky. If you lose it, you will surely get lost on the vast sea.
　　In the practice of the Great Dao, to give up the original heart is to give up everything.
　　The Fairy Lingyue and Xu Taiping were sitting side by side, and she was guiding him earnestly.
　　Upon hearing these words, Xu Taiping, who had originally had a hint of confusion, suddenly had a clear look in his eyes.
　　“Surviving rather than living in secret, abandoning the original heart means abandoning everything.”
　　He muttered to himself with a look of sudden realization.
　　“Taiping, your sister has met many cultivators in this life. Some have become so powerful that they can peek into the secrets of heaven. But even so, even if they see the obstacles ahead and see that the date of death is right in front of them, they still will not choose to abandon their Dao hearts. Instead, they will pick up their swords, clench their fists, and cut down mountains when they encounter mountains and slay demons when they encounter demons.”
　　“The reason they do this is because they clearly know that once they choose to abandon their Dao hearts, their path of cultivation will stop here.”
　　“Living in secret, what if you can steal a thousand years？ The Heavenly Dao still treats you like a straw dog. Only living towards death is the only way out for our generation of cultivators on the long path of cultivation.”
　　Suddenly, Fairy Lingyue picked up Xu Taiping’s face and said very seriously.
　　“I understand, Sister Lingyue.”
　　The look in Xu Taiping’s eyes became firm again.
　　“Of course, if you promised Bai Yu to kill that Peacock King for revenge, then consider what your sister said just now as not said.”
　　Fairy Lingyue then smiled and said.
　　Killing the Peacock King and helping Bai Yu meet her mother for the last time are not on the same level of difficulty.
　　“Sister Lingyue, I’m not stupid. How could I do something that would lead to my own death?”
　　Xu Taiping of course knew what Fairy Lingyue meant by that.
　　“Well, start preparing to break through to the Wangyou Realm. If you can’t break through tonight, I still won’t let you take risks.”
　　Fairy Lingyue’s expression became serious again.
　　“Hmm.”
　　Xu Taiping nodded vigorously.
　　The reason why he replied to Bai Yu with “I’ll think of a way” instead of agreeing directly was because he was waiting to see if he could successfully build the foundation and break through to the Wangyou Realm tonight.
　　If he could succeed, he believed that in the situation where the enemy was clear and he was hidden, he could at least have a chance of escaping in front of the Peacock King.
　　Fairy Lingyue also thought the same way.
　　“Little Taiping, little Taiping, the kind of longevity cultivated by sitting in a cave for a thousand years is the most fragile. The day this kind of person ascends is the day of their death. Moreover, not to mention this Qingxuan Sect, even this heaven and earth is just a corner of the countless cultivation worlds. The road ahead is still very long.”
　　Fairy Lingyue looked at Xu Taiping who was sitting quietly with his eyes closed and muttered to herself in her heart.
　　She didn’t want Xu Taiping to take risks before because he hadn’t even reached the Open Door Realm. But now that he was already a cultivator of the quasi-Wangyou Realm, he had to be made aware of the difficulties ahead.
　　“Boom！ ……”
　　After taking the Foundation Building Pill, Xu Taiping’s aura around his body suddenly skyrocketed. The whole person was wrapped in wisps of cyan air cyclones, exuding an invisible might.
　　Subsequently, his spiritual soul sensed that the gaseous mass of true qi floating like clouds in his dantian began to condense into raindrops bit by bit.
　　Moments later, he saw that in his dantian, it was “pouring rain”, and finally the rainwater converged into a stream, and the stream converged into a river, making his originally dry dantian seem to have a crisscross of waterways.
　　This is exactly what is described in the Canxia Gong, the process of accumulating rain into a stream, converging the stream into a river, and gathering the river into a sea, and finally shaping the qi sea.
　　And the difficulty of this step lies in that once the “spiritual rain” above the head is interrupted, the rivers converged in the dantian will quickly evaporate and turn back into scattered groups of true qi, and ultimately the foundation-building breakthrough will fail.
　　As time passed minute by minute, the spiritual energy gathered around Xu Taiping became more and more intense, and even the entire small courtyard began to be wrapped by the rich spiritual energy of heaven and earth.
　　Everything seemed to be developing in a good direction.
　　However, Fairy Lingyue’s expression did not relax in the slightest.
　　In her opinion, with that foundation-building pill, coupled with Xu Taiping’s tenacious confidence, breaking through the foundation-building was only a matter of time. Even if it didn’t work this time, it would definitely work next time.
　　What really worried Fairy Lingyue was only the extraterrestrial demons.
　　”If the foundation-building fails, it can be tried again. Once the soul is devoured by the extraterrestrial demons, then there will really be nothing left.”
　　”Boom！~”
　　Just at this moment, the spiritual energy around Xu Taiping suddenly exploded and dissipated. All of his clothes were torn to pieces, and a filthy qi began to gush out from his pores. Colorful glows began to circulate on his skin.
　　“The　last　step.”
　　At this time, Fairy Lingyue didn’t feel relaxed at all. Instead, she became even more nervous because she knew that if the Outer Domain Heavenly Demon was going to appear, it would definitely be at this moment.
　　“Hu hu…”
Just as she expected, at this time, a bone-chilling cold wind blew in through the gap of the window.Then, the strong wind slapped the window, making a “bang bang” sound.
　　But the next moment, the world suddenly became completely silent. A pitch-black arm that emitted a dense cold air stretched in through the window.
　　Wherever the arm passed, whether it was the window or the wall, a layer of ice crystals began to condense.
　　And just at this moment, Fairy Lingyue formed a hand seal and shouted loudly：
“Divine might, the golden armor is uncovered. The yellow scarf warrior holds an iron whip.”
　　“A red robe covers the body, and green boots are on the feet. The eyes are like those of a tiger with wind belts.”
The waist is wrapped with a dragon rope and entrusted. The Sanqing pursues and photographs the evil spirits.
　　“Quickly bind and present those who do not submit. I will cut them into pieces like dust. Hastily, as per the decree.”
As soon as the words fell, the formation she had previously arranged around the position lit up, and then the shadow of a warrior in golden armor appeared in front of her.
　　“Zha！”
　　The warrior in golden armor shouted like thunder, holding a whip in one hand and a knife in the other, slashing and whipping at the arm of the extraterrestrial devil.
