Chapter 1029: I'm already this strong
Pu Ao was also very polite.
In terms of respect for power, Pu Ao far surpasses Pu Yunyuan, which is to be expected.
"It was just a casual act of kindness; I'm glad the person is alright."
"As for the title of 'senior,' I'll keep it to myself if I can. I don't like people calling me that."
For such an old man with almost gray hair and beard to call him "senior" only made Gu Heng feel more and more that his old man status was hard to deny, even if he really didn't care about such a commoner's title.
"Then, how should it be addressed?"
Pu Ao quickly asked, this powerful figure seemed to indeed dislike the term "senior," but the hierarchy was still important and couldn't be omitted. Gu Heng thought for a moment and said, "Everyone calls me Mr. Gu, so why don't you two just do the same?"
"Then we will do as you wish, sir!"
Pu Ao quickly responded and didn't forget to pull Pu Yunyuan along to bow as well.
At least in terms of emotional value, the grandfather and grandson did a very good job. Gu Heng couldn't find any fault with them. You can't hit a smiling face, right?
"Seventh Grandfather, the other uncles have all..."
Once she was safe, Pu Yunyuan thought of the other protectors around her, her expression filled with sorrow.
"Oh, I'm so glad you're alright. Life and death are unpredictable."
"I will report this matter to the ancestor when I get back, and their relatives will be properly taken care of."
Pu Ao sighed. Among Pu Yunyuan's protectors, he was the only true expert. The others were just from branch families, filling in the gaps. Even so, when faced with such a big problem that even he was helpless against, he could only accept his bad luck.
After all, given the size of the Pu clan, it was impossible for them to allow a cultivator at the Concept Realm to personally protect Pu Yunyuan.
The clan's territory is vast, and the ancestor at the Concept Realm within the clan, as the backbone of the clan, naturally needs to pay more attention to the situation of the entire clan and Jade Spirit Sacred Mountain. To put it bluntly, the only one in the entire immortal civilization that can afford to do so is the Eternal Immortal Court, which dominates the Eternal Heaven.
Only those colossal beings who directly bask in the might of the gods of the era and act on behalf of the divine will can have a conceptual realm giant personally protect a junior.
"Cough cough!"
Pu Ao coughed a few more times, feeling the increasingly intense pain in his body, and he directly took out a handful of pills and stuffed them into his mouth.
"Seventh Grandfather, how is your injury?" Pu Yunyuan asked anxiously.
"I won't die, but with my old bones, I'll have to stay in the clan and recuperate from now on," Pu Ao shook his head.
His veins and flesh were as fragile as broken pieces. The mysterious people were quite ruthless. He was not controlled by his mind, but his entire body was eroded by their all-pervasive power!
Although Mr. Gu eliminated those mysterious figures and escaped, he had lost a great deal of his cultivation, and even his ability to use Taoist magic to heal himself had been destroyed...
But at least the person didn't die, which is already a wonderful ending!
As far as Pu Ao was concerned, he didn't care if he lost his old life, as Pu Yunyuan was the one handpicked by the ancestor and was destined to become a future clan prodigy!
No matter what, she can't be hurt!
"By the way, Seventh Master, what exactly is the strength of those three people who were chasing you?"
Gu Heng suddenly asked. This question left Pu Ao somewhat bewildered.
He was molded and shaped like mud by those three mysterious men, while those three mysterious men were all killed instantly by Mr. Gu with a single slash. So what's the point of asking?
Why bother about the strength of a weakling who can be killed instantly by you?
Or is Mr. Gu actually implying something deeper, that he doesn't care about the strength of these three guys, but rather about something more profound?
But since he had been asked this question, Pu Ao had no choice but to answer. However, he was always cautious, and he had to be even more careful in front of such powerful people of unknown origin. His thoughts raced, and in the end he could only say, "They are definitely stronger than me, but I dare not guess what their strength is."
Experience told Pu Ao that the best answer was to remain silent, and not to try to decipher the meaning behind every word spoken by a powerful person, as this could sometimes backfire. He guessed that the three mysterious figures were at least at the Origin Level of the Concept Realm, but Pu Ao felt there was no need to embarrass himself by sharing his guess.
Mr. Gu surely knows what's going on; there's no need for a weakling like him to meddle.
"So what is your strength?"
"Mr. Gu, you flatter me. I am only at the tenth level of the Nirvana Realm."
Pu Ao was actually a little ashamed to speak. He was practically crippled now. He didn't know when his injuries would heal completely, but he could eventually recuperate. However, the idea of regaining his lost cultivation was nothing short of a pipe dream!
The path to Nirvana is determined by the condensed cause and effect destiny. The first and tenth levels can only be considered the entry level, while the billion and trillion levels are as strong as an insurmountable chasm. The final number, "the only one in all realms," is as vast as the starry sea!
Now it's all gone. However, Pu Ao didn't dwell on it too much. He had gotten into trouble while protecting Pu Yunyuan, and the clan's patriarch wouldn't sit idly by and watch him fall apart like this. Although he might not be able to return to his peak, he wouldn't be in such a miserable state as he is now.
"The tenth level of the Nirvana Realm?"
Gu Heng's brows slowly relaxed.
Given such a vague and incomplete understanding, he could only rely on this method to determine his own strength.
He killed them too quickly, and didn't have time to ask what the strength of the three guys he took down was. He probably wouldn't even get a response if he did ask.
Pu Ao was at the tenth level of the Nirvana Realm, while those three mysterious people were able to easily defeat him, indicating that they must have overwhelming strength, and they must all be at least at the thousandth level of the Nirvana Realm.
And since he can kill three people with a single strike, he must be able to crush those at the thousandth level of the Nirvana Realm!
Therefore, my current strength must be at least comparable to the ten thousandth level of the Nirvana Realm!
Within the Nirvana Realm, there are eight ranks. Only those starting from the Ten Thousandth Rank can be considered to have undergone a qualitative change. The condensed and refined destiny will gradually occupy the empty space of the original source realm within the body, forming a prototype of the conceptual true source.
Thus, cultivators can come into contact with the most mysterious, ancient, and powerful forces and concepts in all the heavens and myriad worlds!
"I understand."
Gu Heng was quite satisfied; he hadn't expected himself to be so strong now!
Reaching the Nirvana Realm is a level of strength that would earn one a place even in a great civilization like the Immortal Dao Civilization!
"You killed those three individuals?"
Sudden.
Gu Xitong's voice echoed in Gu Heng's mind again.
"Huh? The communication is fixed?" Gu Heng was overjoyed.
The system finally reconnected. Although Gu Xitong was no longer needed as an outside help, just hearing her speak made him feel at ease.
But Gu Xitong's next words surprised Gu Heng.
"Communication has never been interrupted."
"But I dare not speak rashly."
