As the hundreds of spirit needles shattered, each released a small amount of the Spiritual Sense that Di Tou had invested into their creation back into the air. Normally, this bit of Spiritual Sense would be wasted, as the escaping Spiritual Sense would be shattered by whatever attack destroyed the spirit needle or by the Spiritual Sense of the opponent's body. Even if that wasn't the case, there was a good chance the Spiritual Sense would dissipate in the wind on the way back, as solidary Spiritual Sense was rather weak…
It was just a pity that Di Tou was a masochist who had refined his Spiritual Sense's density and strength to an absurd level, so trifling environmental factors like the wind and the leaves weren't able to shatter his Spiritual Sense. Further, he had gone and reinforced the spirit needles on a regular basis, allowing each spirit needle to remain in near peak form.
