Chapter 234 - The Infinite Compassion and Mercy Palm
Ding Ning was immersed in his understanding of the sutra, his tall figure quietly standing in the dark, and he seemed to be unaware of the attack.
Immediately, the first and foremost tall, strong man was delighted, and his confidence increased rapidly. “The biggest credit is mine.”
Just as his saber blade nearly cut Ding Ning’s shoulder, Ding Ning unnoticeably moved aside and easily avoided the attack.
He wielded his palm and hit the chest of the tall, strong man in black. Surprisingly, a beam of golden light burst out, and the man in black flew back, bumped down dozens of people, and heavily fell on the ground, but he was not injured at all.
Astonished, he looked at Ding Ning, but his will of fighting had disappeared, and he didn’t even have the courage to continue fighting.
Now Ding Ning was like a Buddha with a faint halo, and this made these strong men in black even lose their desire of fighting, standing there like stumps.
Ding Ning had no sadness or happiness. Like a great enlightened monk, he showed compassion and mercy on his face. He had never expected that the Infinite Compassion and Mercy Palm, the hidden martial art technique of Heart Sutra of Bodhi could have been stimulated and come out only after he let off Wang Cheng out of a kind heart.
The Infinite Compassion and Mercy Palm was once the top martial art technique in the Buddhist sect, but numerous Buddhist masters who practiced the technique had not found its essence over the past thousands of years, and the technique finally became the lower-class vendor’s goods.
But no one knew that this palm influenced the enemy by reining the “God” and eliminated the enemy’s fighting will. It gave off a compassionate and merciful air no matter what the practitioner did, and it also had the function of making people give up evil actions and do good deeds.
There were many masters in the Buddhist sect, but no one had ever gained “God” because of martial arts practice, but Ding Ning reined the god soul by chance and learned this extremely powerful martial arts technique of the Buddhist sect.
The Infinite Compassion and Mercy Palm had six methods with the first three methods were respectively the Compassion Being the Core, Repenting and Being Saved, and the Buddha Having No Regrets, which were all ways of defense; and the rest three methods were respectively killing methods, namely Warrior Attendants of the Buddha Glaring, Arhats Conquering Demons, and All Buddhas Worshipping the Buddha.
They perfectly accorded with the principle of the Warrior Attendants of the Buddha Glaring and the Bodhisattva Lowering Brows. The Warrior Attendants of the Buddha glared, and so they could conquer the Four Demons; the Bodhisattva lowered his brows, and so he could bring compassion and mercy to the Six Realms of Existence.
But the Infinite Compassion and Mercy Palm which put the Bodhisattva Lowering Brows before others meant to ask the practitioner to avoid arbitrarily killing and make others lower down their weapons with a compassionate and merciful heart. It had the effect of admonition.
The Warrior Attendants of the Buddha were gods who guarded the Buddha. They were willing to protect the Buddha dharma from being harmed. If three times of admonition didn’t work, the Warrior Attendants might glare and fight violence with violence to make the Buddha dharma keep its real sense. Then, all Buddhas would worship, and the perfection of the Buddhist doctrines could be realized.
According to Ding Ning’s understanding, if the two gods disagreed with each other, one would have a domineering attitude and the other would keep a low profile and quiet.
The guy who had a domineering attitude shouted, “Whom are you looking at?”
The guy who kept a low profile and quiet said, “Sorry, I am not looking at you, and I am looking at the beautiful lady in black.”
“F*ck, that is my younger sister. Why are you looking at her?”
“Sorry, sorry, I am wrong. I am looking at that beautiful lady in white beside her?”
“To hell with you! That is my wife. You dare to look at her?”
The guy who kept a low profile became angry. “Why do all the beautiful ladies have connections with you? I am not happy with it. I must fight him.” “Yes, true, what if I am looking at her?”
“Little b*stard, you dare to look at mine. I must fight you.” The guy who had a domineering attitude finally got a suitable reason to begin fighting.
So, the guy who kept a low profile and quiet flattened the guy who had a domineering attitude with just a few strikes. Then, he held a lollipop between his lips, sat cross-legged, and held two beautiful women proudly laughing.
The guy who had a domineering attitude on the ground regretted so much. “S*it, he plays the weak but he is strong. I have fought the wrong person...”
“In a word, the Infinite Compassion and Mercy Palm is one that chose politeness first and violence next. If persuasion doesn’t work, fighting will begin. It is an amazing disguising way,” Ding Ning happily thought.
Most of the strong men in black had lost their fighting will and wanted to retreat, but some strong-minded men had their clear mind soon again and shouted, “Fight!”
“Well,” Ding Ning had to compromise, thinking with grief and indignation, “You are all evildoers, and the Compassion Being the Core didn’t work effectively. So, let’s try Repenting and Being Saved.”
Using the “God” to gather Qi, he slapped down, a giant transparent handprint surprisingly forming in mid-air, and, with a “bang”, all the strong men in black were unexpectedly crushed flat on the ground.
Ding Ning opened his eyes wide. “God, the Repenting and Being Saved is really powerful. It can crush flat such a large group!”
But soon, he found those strong men in black stood up without any injuries. Baffled, they stared at each other, but they looked at Ding Ning in awe.
Ding Ning felt so angry. “This method has no real power, and it only made their fall. Why hasn’t anyone been injured?”
What he didn’t know was that the user could influence others with the Infinite Compassion and Mercy Palm only having a merciful heart himself. When he was using the first method Compassion Being the Core, he fell into his understanding of the sutra and was immersed in the compassionate and merciful state of mind of letting off Wang Cheng.
But when he was using the Repenting and Being Saved, he had the idea of injuring others. Therefore, the second strike only had the form but didn’t have the essence. Therefore, it couldn’t influence these people.
When he saw the strong men swarming to himself again, Ding Ning suddenly used the third method the Buddha Having No Regrets.
This method finally worked. Ding Ning gave off golden light like the Buddha coming to the human world, but the effect made him feel very confused.
Those strong men in black had not been affected by it at all, wielding their machetes to cut him from all sides.
“Tinkle” sounded again and again. The incredible thing was that when their knives fell on Ding, the sound was like metallic items colliding with each other, and then came the sparks.
Seeing his unharmed body, Ding Ning couldn’t help feeling ecstatic. “F*ck, the undefeated golden body of the Buddhist sect is extremely great indeed. It is knife-proof.”
“F*ck, if you cannot cut me to death, let me fight you.” Ding Ning roared, “Warrior Attendants of the Buddha Glaring.”
If a warrior attendant of the Buddha became angry, he would make people die. Ding Ning widely opened his eyes and wielded his fist, which was wrapped by a layer of golden light.
As his fist came, everything was destroyed. The machetes in the hands of those strong men in black were directly broken as if they were clay-made.
Murong Yixiao was astonished and his chin nearly fell. “F*ck, this brother-in-law is really tough.”
Qin Canglan closed his eyes in despair and looked decadent. Whether the Black Masked Man was Ding Ning or not, he was not going to make trouble for Ding Ning anymore.
Losing face was not something so important. Being too persistent was likely to make him lose his life. Such a tough guy was beyond his ability to deal with.
Unless the Qin Family dispatched the several top masters it had, but the fighting result was still hard to guess, and the Qin family would never be willing to take the risk.
Ding Ning was so happy that he did not want to kill these strong men in black in a hurry. He wanted to try the powers of the fifth and sixth methods.
But he was disappointed. When he fought with the fifth method Arhats Conquering Demons, these strong men in black directly knelt down.
“F*ck, what is this?” Ding Ning was frightened. Behind him suddenly appeared a more than a three-meter-tall translucent shadow, which was exuding horrible pressures.
The terrible pressures made everyone within ten meters incapable of standing up. The strong men in black showed panic and knelt down on the ground with the sounds “plop, plop”, and they had didn’t have any courage anymore.
Ding Ning only felt that the God soul and the True Qi were being crazily consumed. They entered the translucent shadow of the Arhat, and the translucent shadow gradually became solidified.
This gave him an uncontrollable sense of fear, and he realized that the power of this method was extremely sensational. When he fully put it into effect, it would definitely be a devastating disaster.
When this method was used, these strong men would surely die and disappear, and even the buildings within ten meters would probably turn into dusk.
“Withdraw, quickly!” Ding Ning felt extremely afraid. “This method was not a martial arts technique, but it is a small atomic bomb.” He didn’t want to become a national wanted criminal after he got up tomorrow morning.
But it was hard to withdraw what had been released. His True Qi and God soul were quickly flowing out, and it was not so easy to withdraw the method.
Directly withdrawing it made him suffer from serious counterattack. His Qi and blood churned, his meridians turned messy, and his brain roared, and he only felt something salty at his throat. He couldn’t hold it anymore, and blood gushed out of his throat.
Ding Ning staggered underfoot, his blood fell like rain, and he was depressed.
He tried hard to refresh himself and withstood the severe pain in the body, and he knew the situation was not good for him. He had been serious counterattacked, and he shouldn’t stay here for too long.
Immediately, he stood straight, ignoring the fearful eyes of these strong men in black, and marched forward with great strides.
Qin Canglan’s eyes twinkled. Ding Ning was injured, and this was the best chance to finish him. Now, Ding Ning had become a serious trouble for him.
But...
Murong Yixiao was stubbornly staring at Ding Ning’s tall and straight back. He took a look at him and was tortured by mixed feelings.
Anyone with sharp eyes could see that Ding Ning was counterattacked only because he forcibly withdrew his method. That was to say, he had spared the lives of those strong men in black. The Qin Family upheld loyalty and righteousness to make a living. If he attacked Ding Ning now, he was an ungrateful man. That was against the family’s ancestral precepts.
But this was an extremely rare opportunity, and now he was unwilling to let Ding Ning leave. Therefore, he let Murong Yixiao make the decision.
“Yixiao, now is the best opportunity to finish him. What do you think?”
“Finish him? Why? He is a man, a real man. I appreciate him. In addition, I don’t think he has lost the ability to fight now.”
Murong Yixiao’s eyes shone. He looked at Ding Ning’s tall figure with admiration and muttered without turning his head back.
Qin Canglan sighed. He completely lost this time. He was sad not because he had been defeated by Ding Ning, but that Ding Ning had conquered Murong Yixiao with his action.
Every young man had the dream of passionately fighting in the complicated human world. Ding Ning’s great power and deeds were absolutely in line with the hero image in the mind of every young man and woman.
Murong Yixiao was just in his early twenties, an age to appreciate fantasy and worship heroes. His admiring of Ding Ning was reasonable.
This made Qin Canglan feel like he had lifted a rock only to drop on his own feet.
But when everyone thought Ding Ning would leave safely, a sudden change occurred.
In the darkness, a figure dressed in black clothes suddenly jumped out. With a “horse slaughtering saber” in his hand, he drew a shiny arc in the air, aimed at Ding Ning’s head with sheer force.
“No!”
Murong Yixiao’s expression changed dramatically. Suddenly he sat upright, shouting in desperation.
Qin Canglan was shocked. “Who is the assassin? He is absolutely not my man, and he must be a stranger.”
Momentarily, he tried to think about every possibility. “Who is the assassin? Is he also the enemy of Ding Ning or is he doing so to frame the Qin Family?”
“If he can kill Ding Ning, that will be good; if he cannot, will Ding Ning think it is the Qin Family that did this to him?” Thinking of the terrifying power of Ding Ning’s Arhat image, he felt so afraid.
Ding Ning’s meridians were disordered at the moment, but he still strongly perceived the danger immediately. He felt very sad. He was seriously injured and had no ability to fight back. Unexpectedly, today was his death day.
“To hell with you!”
Suddenly, with a loud shout and a crisp gunshot, the assassin fell like a kite with a broken line from mid-air.
It was a strange and plain face. At the moment, there was a blood hole between his brows. With his eyes wide open, he watched the sky, full of strong unwillingness.
He almost succeeded, but now he had become a corpse that was turning cold. He would turn in his grave.
Qin Canglan felt Murong Yixiao obviously let out a sigh of relief, but he sighed in his heart that Ding Ning was not dead. He was afraid the Qin Family’s trouble would come soon.
But this was not the time to think about it. He wanted to know who saved Ding Ning.
Ding Ning’s tense nerves relaxed abruptly, and his pain and weakness flooded in like a tide, making him feel that the sky and earth were turning. His world turned dark, and he fainted.
