The Sims: I Open the Immortal Path for All Beings

Chapter 617: Chapter 567: Wang Boan, A Natural-born Strongman

“Huh?” Yu Xunya paused, his gaze shifting to Qi Yuanjing.

He looked around and, not finding any anomaly, he lowered his voice and asked, “Did you discover something? Why do you say that?”

He knew his colleague very well. On the surface, the latter appeared frivolous, but in reality, he was composed and cautious. If he didn’t have a high certainty, he would definitely not speak so casually.

“Indeed, it is you who knows me best, Brother Yu!” Qi Yuanjing sighed, putting down the dagger in his hand, his expression serious.

He said, “Do you remember the event a few days ago when Commander Boan took me to spy on our enemies?”

“Of course I remember,” Yu Xunya nodded.

A commander must understand both himself and his enemy to win every battle. Although they have been confronting the Demon Race for a long time without engaging in a war, both sides are continuously spying on each other.

Commander Wang Boan sometimes personally leads a reconnaissance mission, and he and Qi Yuanjing often accompany him. However, a few days ago, he was stuck with something else and failed to accompany, only Qi Yuanjing went with the commander.

Could it be that there was an unknown incident that happened at that time?

He turned his eyes to Qi Yuanjing, waiting for him to continue.

Qi Yuanjing didn’t hold back and said, “I accompanied Commander Boan on the reconnaissance mission, everything was normal at first. But when we were about to leave, we were discovered by the Demon Race.”

“Discovered by the Demon Race? How come I wasn’t aware of this?” Yu Xunya frowned, realizing this was not a trivial issue.

Qi Yuanjing continued, “Moreover, the Demon Race that we encountered was not an ordinary one. Leading them was a Demon King at the Seventh Level of the Spiritual Realm who seemed to have recently been drawn from the Sky Wasteland.”

At that time, they happened to encounter a Demon King at the Seventh Level of the Spiritual Realm who was drawn back during a demon’s sacrificial ceremony.

When encountering that Demon King, Qi Yuanjing was deeply frightened. Even though both the human race and the Demon Race who just returned from the Sky Wasteland would be rejected by Heaven and Earth, a Demon King of the Seventh Level of the Spiritual Realm was definitely beyond their resistance.

It could be said that, in that situation, Qi Yuanjing believed he would undoubtedly die.

While he had made peace with his own death because he was prepared to die on the battlefield from the day he joined the army, the situation then was completely different. He was not alone but accompanied by Boan, who is the commander of the human army. If Boan were to die there, the morale of the human army would suffer a devastating blow.

At the moment, Qi Yuanjing was ready to sacrifice himself to stall the enemy, to give Commander Boan a chance to escape.

However, what happened next completely shattered Qi Yuanjing’s understanding of their reality.

A Demon King at the Seventh Level of the Spiritual Realm, a seemingly terrifying entity, was instantly killed by Commander Boan when he attacked them, without the Demon King being able to resist at all.

This revelation deeply shocked Qi Yuanjing, he couldn’t have imagined that Commander Boan was so powerful. Even though he knew that Boan was strong, killing a Demon King of the Seventh Level of Spiritual Realm with a single move was beyond Qi Yuanjing’s comprehension.

Thud!

The dagger fell from his hand and landed on the table, but Yu Xunya did not care about the fallen dagger, his eyes were fixed on Qi Yuanjing, trying to ascertain if Qi Yuanjing was bluffing or telling the truth.

“So does this mean Commander Boan has ascended to the Seventh Level of the Spiritual Realm?” He cautiously asked, finding it hard to believe.

At the Seventh Level of the Spiritual Realm, a cultivator would not be considered weak even in the Sky Wasteland. For the current Great Ming Divine Dynasty, having a powerhouse of the Seventh Level of the Spiritual Realm was indeed great news.

“I don’t know. But with a powerhouse of this caliber, even if he hasn’t broken through, what really is the difference from reaching the Seventh Level of the Spiritual Realm?” said Qi Yuanjing.

…

“I can’t believe you’ve reached the Seventh Level of the Spiritual Realm.” Gu Ji said with a sigh as he glanced at Wang Boan, who looked as calm as ever.

The Seventh Level of the Spiritual Realm. This is probably the second now who has ascended to this Realm after Pei Xuanjing, excluding the ones who have returned from the Sky Wasteland!

“Huh?” Gu Ji thought about something and asked, “Isn’t there supposed to be a significant celestial phoneme when one ascends to the Seventh Level of the Spiritual Realm? So how did you achieve this smoothly, with no abnormality?”

Over the years, although Gu Ji has been focusing on the elevation of his Divine Position, he is not completely ignorant about many things in Cultivation.

According to his understanding, entering the Seventh Spiritual Realm and forming a Taoist Foundation could cause a great phenomenon, as when Pei Xuanjing had previously demonstrated with the immense celestial changes when he broke through.

However, why was Wang Boan’s ascendance so unremarkable and unbeknownst to anyone?

“Perhaps I don’t need to form a Taoist Foundation!” Wang Boan laughed.

Indeed, the Seventh Spiritual Realm is about forming a Taoist Foundation, a pathway with no regret. For many powerhouses, they need to solidify their Taoist Foundation at this stage, they need to harmonize with Heaven and Earth.

But to Wang Boan, he doesn’t need to go through this. Or he had already experienced it long before when he was first exiled.

The process of a cultivator’s cultivation involves comprehension and understanding of one’s mind throughout. They need to comprehend the ultimate principles of Heaven and Earth, understand the changes in Heaven and Earth to complete their Great Tao.

But long ago, when Wang Boan was still an ordinary martial artist, he had fully understood his nature and discovered the path that he was destined to walk. His foundation had already been established in his early twenties, and he needed no change at all.

So, while others were discovering their true heart, understanding and confirming their path, Wang Boan had no such concerns. All he had to do was cultivate single-mindedly and everything would happen naturally.

To put it simply, cultivating is like filling water. The cultivation of others is like constantly repairing the bucket and then pouring water.

But for Wang Boan, his bucket had been repaired long ago, all he needed to do was fill the bucket with water.

“Regardless, your increasing strength is great news for us. In the upcoming situation, we will be able to respond more calmly.” Gu Ji listened, not fully understanding, but he did not probe further, instead smiling contentedly.

He did not need to think too much, he just needed to know that Wang Boan had become stronger, and that was enough.
