Chapter 948: The Thousand Buddhas of the Kalpa of Virtue
"If someone shows his kindness for no reason, he is either a traitor or a thief."
"It's obvious that Maitreya Buddha wants to gain some benefits, so he took the opportunity to suggest reinforcements."
Listening to the snake's chattering in his ear, Li Hao, who was refining the elixir in the [Treasure House of God], seemed very calm.
Outside this [Treasure House of God] is the endless battlefield.
The warring forces are roughly divided into three parties. One is the mountain and sea civilization led by Li Hao, one is the immortals from the heavens brought in by Taoist Duobao, and the last one is the huge number of enlightened people.
The main battlefields of the three parties are all the endless curvature of time and space, and the personnel are intricately intertwined, making it difficult to distinguish them.
In the home turf of space-time curvature, the God-Slayer civilization is undoubtedly the dominant party.
But the mountain and sea civilizations and the immortals in the heavens are no pushovers either.
Time and again, they rushed into the curvature of space and time, causing huge casualties to the God-Slayer civilization.
At a higher dimensional level, the confrontation between the Creator's Eye, Duobao Taoist and the laws of mathematics is constantly affecting the direction of the entire battle.
"Then Maitreya Buddha does want to gain some benefits, but that doesn't mean we will suffer any losses."
"There are many things in this world where cooperation brings benefits to both sides and separation brings harm to both sides."
Turning his head and glancing at the snake, Li Hao explained to him patiently as always.
"The life level has reached our level..."
“There are actually very few things in this world that can move our hearts or are worth pursuing.”
"The status of the Great Celestial Venerable is one of them, but that is obviously not the goal of Maitreya Buddha."
Without waiting for Huashe to refute, Li Hao continued with a smile.
"If Maitreya Buddha really wants the status of the Great Celestial Lord, then there is no way he would not have planted spies in Baiyujing."
"But think about it, who is the 'Buddha Master' among the Five Elders of Baiyujing?"
"So Maitreya Buddha has only one goal..."
She can understand the elegant meaning by listening to the music of the strings. Huashe is just too lazy to think, which does not mean she is really stupid.
"Duobao Taoist, or Duobao Tathagata?"
With a look of surprise, he looked towards the battlefield outside, and the snake saw the Taoist in green robes sitting on the green lotus.
"In order to hide his identity, he didn't even use any Buddhist methods. How could Maitreya Buddha recognize him?"
What Huashe said was true. Taoist Duobao had not used any Buddhist methods so far, and he obviously did not want the outside world to have any unnecessary associations.
"What on earth is going on?"
"Does Maitreya Buddha want to kill Duobao Taoist and usurp the throne? End his identity as the 'Future Buddha' in advance?"
Listening to Huashe's uneducated remarks, Li Hao rolled his eyes helplessly.
"I can tell at a glance that you haven't seriously studied the Buddhist system..."
"Duobao Tathagata is the Buddha, but he is not Sakyamuni."
"Shakyamuni is the master of the world of Bhasa, the present Buddha, and the Buddha among Buddhas."
"And the Tathagata is the leader of the Eastern Pure Land, the Great Treasure Buddha, the Treasure Saint Buddha."
"Similarly, in addition to being the 'Future Buddha', Maitreya Buddha is also the master of Maitreya Pure Land and Sumeru World."
There was a slight pause in his tone, and Li Hao waited until the snake had digested the information before continuing to explain.
"In the entire Buddhist system, there has always been a saying of 'a thousand Buddhas in the Kalpa of Virtue'. Maitreya is only the fifth Buddha, the successor designated by Sakyamuni."
"In other words, Maitreya Buddha is a prince, a prince who doesn't even have a specific Buddhist name."
"If the prince wants to succeed to the throne, he must have his own team."
"The leader of the Eastern Treasure Pure World, Duobao Tathagata, is obviously one of the people chosen by Maitreya Buddha."
"However, due to the special status of Duobao Tathagata, it is not easy for Maitreya Buddha to help him openly, so he came to us in a roundabout way."
"Maitreya Buddha is trying to sell a favor to two people and make me and Duobao Tathagata owe him a favor."
It has to be admitted that Maitreya Buddha did a very smart job in this deal.
Anyway, he has no desire for the status of the Great Heavenly Venerable, he only wants to inherit the orthodoxy of the Possa world and become the true living Buddha.
"Then according to what you said, it seems that there is no need for us to act as a matchmaker for Him, right?"
Huashe has not forgotten why his God of Gods joined this war.
To put it bluntly, our own God of Gods was just a reinforcement invited by Duobao Taoist. There was no reason or need to owe Maitreya Buddha a favor for him.
"You are still too naive."
Reaching out and touching the snake's head, Li Hao said in the face of the other party's rather dissatisfied expression.
"Favors are different from transactions. It doesn't mean that if you owe a favor you will necessarily be the one at a disadvantage."
"The fact that Maitreya Buddha is willing to let me owe him this favor implies that he wants to continue to have a close relationship with me."
"Except for a very small number of like-minded friends, the vast majority of friendships in this world begin with this kind of give-and-take relationship."
This time, Huashe understood what Li Hao meant.
However, when he looked up at Li Hao, Huashe instinctively felt a subtle sense of disharmony.
According to common sense, Li Hao's explanation is clear enough.
But Huashe, who had been with Li Hao for such a long time, felt that this should not be the main reason why the other party was willing to agree to act as a matchmaker for Maitreya Buddha.
"What are you going to do now?"
After a moment's silence, Huashe asked in a firm tone.
"Uh, am I being that obvious?"
Li Hao couldn't help but touch his face and asked back somewhat unconfidently.
"No, you covered it up very well, and for very good reasons."
"But I don't think these are your characteristics. You don't seem like the kind of person who cares about how many friends you have."
"Not to mention a friend like Maitreya Buddha, whose relationship is based entirely on interests and personal connections..."
“Otherwise, the relationship between you and the Faceless Man wouldn’t be as dull as it is now.”
The Faceless Man was the first extraterritorial god that Li Hao knew, and he provided him with great help in the early days.
But even so, Li Hao has not yet sent a permanent incarnation to the Faceless Man's "realm without time and space".
Judging from this point alone, Li Hao is obviously very picky in choosing friends.
As long as they are not friends recognized by Li Hao, he is too lazy to maintain even the most basic interpersonal relationships.
"It seems that you have indeed become a little smarter..."
"It's worth it that I have been teaching you so patiently all this time."
Turning his head calmly, Li Hao continued speaking before the snake went berserk.
"You are right. These superficial reasons are not the real reasons why I am willing to help Maitreya Buddha to make connections."
"The real reason I'm willing to do this is because I want to get more deeply involved in this war."
