Conferred God: Got cramped at the beginning

Chapter 863 Maitreya: Finally see the future!
"But under the rules of heaven, whether it's repaying a favor or taking revenge, there are other rules as well."

"Don't harm the innocent."

"Once innocent people are harmed, the laws of nature will hold them accountable." Ao Bing pointed at their battlefield.

"But the two of you are both disciples of saints, and you both have the saints' dojo as a way out - if you two escape into the saints' dojo, wouldn't it show that the Heavenly Court is incompetent and the Heavenly Rules are powerless?"

"As the Lord of Justice, I must avoid this trouble."

There was a hint of smile on Ao Bing's face.

"If you want to settle your grudges, you can do it without any worries. This god has come here to protect the living beings here, so that they will not be implicated in the chaos of fighting among you fellow Taoists."

“Secondly, we must arrest you and bring you to justice in time after the war, so as to avoid bringing shame to the Heavenly Court.” Ao Bing said, and then sat down on the side, restraining all his magical powers - but the cold and mighty aura was always locked on the Taoist Master Ran Deng and the Maitreya Master.

So at this time, Ao Bing naturally sensed the lingering scent of the Taoist fruit on Master Ran Deng - the same lingering scent of the Taoist fruit as the gold brick in Nezha's hand.

"The same Dao Fruit?" Ao Bing was shocked.

Ao Bing was not surprised that the Taoist Master Ran Deng could reach Daluo——

After all, in later generations, the Taoist Master Ran Deng ascended to Daluo in the Western Buddhist sect, transformed into the Buddha of the past, and carried the past of Buddhism - that is, the history of Western religions, and the connection between Buddhism and Taoism.

For such a person, even in this generation, it is natural for him to touch the Daluo realm. What's more, has he ever heard the teachings of Hongjun Daozu in Zixiao Palace?

But what astonished Ao Bing was the rhythm displayed by the fruit on the body of the Taoist Master Ran Deng.

Tao Fruit is a perfect thing. It is naturally complete. If it exists, it exists. If it does not exist, it does not exist. Between heaven and earth, whether in the past or in the future, no one has ever heard of the term "half-step Daluo" or "incomplete Tao Fruit".

For the Tao Fruit, even if a part of it is torn apart, the torn part and the remaining part will instantly become "two complete but complementary individuals."

For Daluo, even if the Dao Fruit is torn, the torn Dao Fruit will immediately transform into a perfect form again - and then, wait for the torn Dao Fruit to gather again.

If someone's Dao Fruit is torn too tragically, so that it is "incomplete" and cannot show its perfect appearance, then in an instant, his Dao Fruit will collapse and then Daluo will also degenerate and transform into Taiyi.

Looking at the Taoist Master Ran Deng and the gold bricks in Nezha's hands in front of him.

At first, Ao Bing thought that the Tao rhyme in the gold brick was the result of Taiyi Zhenren's doting on his disciple, who specially found a Tao fruit to make the gold brick forged with Nezha's soul and blood return to its original state. The reason why its aura was unpredictable was because the gold brick was merging with the Tao fruit - just like the four seals left to future generations by the predecessors of the Tiangui system in later generations.

However, at this moment, comparing the Dao rhythm on the body of the Taoist Master Ran Deng, Ao Bing suddenly discovered that the rhythm in the gold brick was not some unpredictable Dao fruit, but clearly a 'incomplete Dao fruit' that had never been seen before between heaven and earth.

And that incomplete part of the Taoist fruit just happened to fall on the body of the Taoist Master Ran Deng!
"The split of the Dao Fruit does not manifest the Yin and Yang aspects, each of which appears in a perfect and complementary posture, but remains in an 'incomplete' posture, maintaining 'harmony and consistency'."

"Interesting, interesting!"

"So this is the trouble with Nezha!"

"So, the solution to this problem is here - just kill the Taoist Master Ran Deng in this world, so that all the Taoist fruits of this world's Taoist Master Ran Deng will be attributed to Nezha. What happens after that will be a matter between Nezha in the other world and the Taoist Master Ran Deng in the other world."

“Randang in that world will no longer be able to use the Dao fruit of this world to check and balance Nezha!” Ao Bing still had a smile on his face, and he suppressed the murderous intent in his heart.

“Before he even achieved Daluo, he had already planned this chess game of using Daluo Dao Fruit to check and balance his own younger generations - I really don’t know how to evaluate Senior Guangchengzi.” Thinking of this, Ao Bing couldn’t help but twitching at the corners of his eyes.

People say Guangchengzi is narrow-minded, but when he was still Taiyi, he dared to use the Daluo Dao to plan a strategy, and he succeeded!
You could say that he had a broad vision. The chess game he planned was enough to target those Daluo masters - but he chose to use this method to target his own nephew!

After thinking about Guangchengzi's behavior, Ao Bing could only say that it was weird and incomprehensible.

On the opposite side of Ao Bing, even though Ao Bing expressed that he had absolutely no intention of stopping them, the Taoist Master Ran Deng and the Venerable Maitreya still frowned.

For the first time, they experienced the "slipperiness" of the Great Lord of Justice in front of them!
Yes, slick!
When this is spread out, everyone between heaven and earth will feel an incredible impression.

After all, ever since this great Lord of Justice made his debut, everything he did was as swift and violent as wind and fire, with big openings and closings, and he only advanced and never retreated - his words and deeds had nothing to do with being slick at all.

It is precisely for this reason that the Taoist master Ran Deng is full of confidence, thinking that he can use the rules to control the Great Lord of Justice - after all, a gentleman can be deceived by his own rules.

But who could have imagined that this Great Lord of Justice was even more skillful than even the Taoist Master Ran Deng in using the name of rules to do things.

Taoist Master Ran Deng lowered his eyes and looked at the seal in his palm. He felt extremely helpless and amused.

Just as he said, this is a personal grudge. Even if the Great Lord of Justice in front of him is on good terms with Nezha, it would be difficult for him to stop this hunt - unless he is no longer the Great Lord of Justice, but just a good friend of Nezha.

But who would have thought that the Great Lord of Justice would follow his words and show that as the Great Lord of Justice, he would indeed not interfere in this dispute between gratitude and hatred, but he wanted to prevent the two parties in the feud from escaping to the scene where the saints arrived to avoid being punished by the heavenly rules after settling the gratitude and hatred.

No matter who comes to this statement or this decision, no one can find any logic in it!

After all, Master Ran Deng and the others knew that once they succeeded in hunting Nezha, they would definitely escape into Mount Sumeru to digest what they had gained from the hunt - and when they came out of Mount Sumeru again, they would have already reached Daluo.

And if such a matter is not handled properly from the perspective of the identities of both parties involved, it will definitely be a huge blow to the new Tiangui!

Therefore, it can be said that it is natural for the Great Lord of Justice Ao Bing to come here!

But that's the problem.

The Great Lord of Justice said in a peaceful manner that he would never interfere in the feud between them and Nezha - he didn't even ask about the source of the feud.

However, when this Great Lord of Justice appeared, he could have controlled the wind and rain to break Maitreya's blockade of Nezha - but now, he directly locked his aura onto himself and Maitreya.

In this situation, the Great Lord of Justice said that he would not interfere, but what is the difference between this and interfering?
However, you said that he interfered in grudges, but this great Lord of Justice also said it very clearly - he did it to prevent himself and Maitreya Venerable from escaping, and to bring both of them back to heaven at the first possible time to demonstrate the majesty of the heavenly rules.

"Brother Daoist, do you still want to take action?" Venerable Maitreya transmitted the message.

From the moment Nezha showed up to the moment the Great Lord of Justice showed up - he only took action twice.

However, after just these two attacks, Venerable Maitreya had already seen through Nezha's true colors.

First of all, his skill is just an ordinary Taiyi - even at the Taiyi level, it is still quite shallow.

However, what does not match this skill is the terrifying and unbelievable killing power!
Four innate spiritual treasures, plus the Humanity Yuan Qi Cannon - logically speaking, such a powerful force would be difficult to bear even for the most outstanding Taiyi, or even those Taiyi who have entered the Tao, but Nezha can control this power perfectly.

Therefore, with the blessing of this power, the killing power displayed by Nezha far surpassed that of Taiyi, and it was like directly leaping and flying, reaching the highest level under Daluo - putting everything aside, just talking about this killing power, even those Taiyi who had attained enlightenment and possessed innate spiritual treasures might not be able to compare to Nezha in front of them.

In the understanding of Maitreya, if there is the ultimate in attack and defense between heaven and earth, then Nezha who appears in front of him at this moment is the ultimate in attack!

That moment of explosion...

Venerable Maitreya can be sure that if the person who appeared before Nezha was not himself who could lead to the future fruit of the Tao, nor the Taoist Master Ran Deng who had achieved half of the fruit of the Tao, but someone else - unless it was a top-notch Taiyi who possessed a defensive innate spiritual treasure, otherwise, anyone below Daluo would die in Nezha's instantaneous outburst.

While thinking, Venerable Maitreya also inadvertently glanced at the tear on his sleeve again - this sleeve was made by his comprehending supernatural powers, it was not an ordinary spiritual treasure, but the manifestation of his merit.

In his past experiences, since he comprehended the future, except for the time when he faced the Taoist of the Blood Sea and the Styx, no one could leave a mark on him. But when he faced Nezha, in the first instant, his sleeves were torn apart by the extreme sharpness and extreme flames - Nezha's killing power can be imagined!

It was precisely because he realized this that Venerable Maitreya did not hesitate to activate the power of the future Tao Fruit when he made his second move. After the incident caused by Bai Ze, the future was disturbed, and the power to guide the future Tao Fruit was no longer as it used to be without backlash. However, Venerable Maitreya still activated the future Tao Fruit without hesitation.

One can imagine how terrifying Nezha's killing power is and how great a threat he poses to Lord Maitreya!

That was a person that he would need to deal with with all his strength even if he was able to receive the Dao Fruit of the future—that ultimate attacking force was difficult for even him to withstand!

Before, with the combined efforts of him and Master Ran Deng, they were able to suppress Nezha and try to keep him safe - but now, the Lord of Justice appeared in front of the two of them, with a fair attitude, but he showed an attitude of taking sides... Now is no longer a good time to deal with Nezha!

If you can't respond with all your strength, you may be injured by Nezha - and with the killing power displayed by Nezha, being injured may mean death!

It is said that with the great way ahead, one would rather die than retreat. However, Maitreya, the eternally undefeated Maitreya under Daluo, suddenly had the idea of ​​retreating at this moment. He began to think in his heart whether it was necessary to gamble his life on the secret method of Master Ran Deng.

The secret method of the Taoist Master Ran Deng is indeed a secret method that even saints admire - but isn't his judgment that it is impossible for the Maitreya Master to achieve Daluo in the 'now' also the judgment of a saint?
"Opportunities are fleeting. If you miss this one, you will never have it again!" In the past, Master Ran Deng would always choose to take a step back in most of the choices, but at this moment he showed an unprecedented tough attitude.

"Daoist friend, listen carefully!"

The Taoist Master Ran Deng quickly transmitted the message, using his own 'incomplete Dao fruit' to trigger the secret method of Daluo level, and passed the information to the ears of Maitreya Venerable who was now connecting with the future Dao fruit - the content of the words was nothing else but a part of the secret method of the Taoist Master Ran Deng to cut and seal the Dao fruit.

Listening to the words of the Taoist Master Ran Deng, the Venerable Maitreya also began to draw the power in his body and divide the power in his body according to the mystery of the secret method. In the void, it seemed that a jade knife fell lightly, and it seemed that there were long nails pressing down in the dark.

The power belonging to the future fruit of the Tao was cut off by Maitreya under the secret method of the Taoist Master Ran Deng, and then sealed in his own body.

"This secret method is really effective!" Maitreya's heart was beating fast. At this moment, he was extremely moved. All his emotions were spinning in his mind. At this moment, he almost shed tears.

"The fruit of your path lies in the future!" This comes from the saint's judgment, is his glory, and also the rope that binds him.

Ordinary people only know the glory between these judgments, but only Maitreya himself knows what kind of burden and pain are behind these judgments!

As a Taiyi who had attained enlightenment at a very early age, the saints judged that the enlightenment would only come in the future!
Daozu Hongjun suppressed time and space, and the past, present, and future were clearly divided.

The past can never be changed, the present can never be determined, and the future can never be reached!

Saying that Maitreya's spiritual fruition exists in the future, what is the difference between this and being certain that Maitreya cannot possibly achieve Daluo?
Being able to touch the future fruit of the Tao at all times, but being unable to pick it - what kind of torture is this?
The greatest suffering in the world is hunger. When hunger reaches its extreme, it can wipe out all rationality and all etiquette. At that time, in order to fill the hunger, everything between heaven and earth, including the living beings themselves, will be his food.

At this time, if someone could bring the food to the creature, the creature would be reluctant to pay any price for it!

Just like the four pillars of heaven in the east, west, south and north - the four Daluo guarding the pillars are not willing to serve as guardians.

Among them, the Daluo in the north made a bet with the saint because of this "hunger" - then, Yuqing Yuanshi Tianzun gathered the "suffering of hunger of living beings" into one, dropped it on the body of Daluo, and then forbade his vitality, and placed Daluo in the void.

Therefore, after only three thousand years, Daluo could no longer endure the suffering of hunger, and surrendered to Yuanshi Tianzun, then went to guard the Northern Tianzhu.

Before he went to the Northern Sky Pillar, he manifested countless incarnations and fell into the heaven and earth, begging for food everywhere to cleanse away the hunger, evil and suffering of three thousand years, and then he went to the Northern Sky Pillar.

In the face of that extreme "hunger", even Daluo couldn't stand it, let alone others.

As for Venerable Maitreya, his situation is similar to the 'extreme hunger' endured by Daluo - although he does not have the extreme 'hunger' to fill his stomach, there is always an unprecedented dish in front of him, which is the Tao fruit!
In front of this unprecedented dish, all the delicacies he had consumed seemed as bland as water and vitality!

In front of this future fruit of the Tao, all the mysteries and magical powers he had comprehended seemed extremely shallow!

In front of this future fruit of the Tao, Venerable Maitreya is almost always in a state of self-denial!
No matter whether he moves forward or backward, no matter whether he becomes stronger or weaker, the distance between him and the future Dao Fruit will always remain unchanged—it seems to be only one step away, but he can never take this step.

In such a situation, if it were an ordinary Taoist, he would have either collapsed or given up - however, in such a situation, Venerable Maitreya still practiced diligently. Even though every attempt to get closer to the future ended in failure, he was still exploring every possibility of obtaining the fruit of the Tao!
One can imagine how determined he was.

At this moment, when he realized that the secret method of Master Ran Deng was really effective, even Maitreya, who had a mind as strong as Mount Sumeru, could not help but collapse and sway.

Then, after the accumulated pressure like Mount Sumeru collapsed, endless clear light spread over the body of Maitreya.

"Now, I see the future!" Between sighs and lamentations, feeling extremely moved and satisfied, Venerable Maitreya made his third move.

When he was unsure of the right path, he was hesitant and would consider his advance and retreat - but now, the right path is really ahead, so why not give it a try?
His first move was a test and appeared conservative.

His second attack was successful, but also seemed cautious - that strike only sealed the sky and locked the earth, but did not cause any damage to the environment between heaven and earth, nor did it disrupt the changes in the laws between heaven and earth.

However, his third attack was more decisive and ruthless than any previous one!
Even when he was fighting for his life in the sea of ​​blood and escaping from the hands of the Taoist of the Styx, his posture of attack was not as good as it is now!

As that blow was launched, leading to the future fruit of the Tao, the phantom of his past also appeared behind him.

The three thousand illusions are the three thousand pasts - they are the three thousand possibilities that Maitreya sought and tried in the past in order to pick the future fruit of the Tao, or to get rid of the future fruit of the Tao!
At this moment, when he and the Taoist Master Ran Deng's secret method truly touched the future and truly grasped the future, the three thousand kinds of past that represented extreme regrets turned into incomparable relief in an instant, and then turned into incomparable terrifying power.

"Fellow Daoist, please come in!" said the Maitreya Master.

The outstretched palm actually involved Ao Bing.

In his palms, with infinite possibilities colliding, the mysterious light that would eventually merge with the future was about to transform into a swastika golden symbol - that was the achievement of Buddhism after the two saints of Ao Bing's generation had passed away.

However, the merits belonging to the other world are manifested in this world when Maitreya touches the future!
"Daluo!" At this moment, the whole world was shaken!
Da Luo!
How many years has it been since the Lich appeared in the world?

Before Ao Bing manifested himself as a blue dragon, for the Taiyi between heaven and earth, even attaining enlightenment was a luxury - therefore, when Zhao Gongming, Taiyi Zhenren, and Ao Bing, etc., successively attained enlightenment, it attracted tremendous attention.

Just attaining enlightenment is like this, let alone at this moment, this Venerable Maitreya wants to touch the future, pick the future, and then ascend to Daluo!

No matter if there is a Taoist who really wants to ascend to Daluo.

It is still impossible for Maitreya to touch the future, but he really touched the future.

These are all earth-shattering news!
At this moment, these two earth-shaking news came together!
Under this sudden change, the outline of Mount Sumeru in the western extreme became apparent. In Mount Sumeru, two Taoists who were sitting side by side also manifested their figures between heaven and earth and set their gazes here. With the help of the swastika Buddha light manifested by Maitreya, the two saints of the Western religion were also harmonizing their own merits to correspond to this Buddha light.

"Not good!" On Mount Kunlun, Taiyi Zhenren, who was feeling the future manifestation, also changed his face greatly, and without hesitation, he went to the Jade Ruyi enshrined in the Yuxu Palace and wanted to go to this human world - but as soon as he stepped out of the Yuxu Palace, he was stopped by several other disciples of the Chan Sect.

"Brother Taiyi, please stay."

The ones standing in front of Taiyi Zhenren were none other than Yuding Zhenren and his men.

"Brother, are you going to save Nezha?" Qingxu Daode Zhenjun bowed.

"Of course." Taiyi Zhenren shook his head. "How can I, a member of the Chan Sect, ignore my fellow disciples?"

"When Senior Brother Guang Chengzi died, I was too late to stop him. But now that Nezha is in trouble, I have to go there no matter what."

"Are you going to stop me, fellow disciples?" Taiyi Zhenren showed the Jade Ruyi in his hand - this was a sacred object enshrined in the Yuxu Palace, and it was also something that Yuanshi Tianzun played with in the past. Being able to take out this Jade Ruyi meant that Taiyi Zhenren's decision had been recognized by Yuanshi Tianzun.
