The Divine totem drops to the ground upon impact. It created cracks on the ground, which in terms created a glow of aura from those cracks. Then, from another strike from the clouds, it created a shield of defense which heals any group members that is inside of the shield. And with that, Li Xiaosheng got slashed on the back by the ground rat that attacked him.
He flew a few feet from where he was standing to the ground, but he was still lucky that the Divine totem that Zia Tengfei have used quickly healed him. When Qin Shanyuan saw how Li Xiaosheng got hit by the claw of the type of ground rat, she then charged forward.
When she gets close to the ground rat, she immediately raised her shield which to defend herself from the two incoming claw attacks of the ground rat. Qin Shanyuan backed by a bit because of the force of the claw attacks of the ground rat. But because of her training that she has received. She could push back and regain her stance.
