The attacks made from the ethereal qi from a Qi Master were actually more visible than usual on this map, where any movement disturbed the thick fog. Even though Song Xiao had launched this Sky Piercing Strike very quickly, it didn't pose any difficulty for Ye Xiu.
Charge!
Even though he clearly saw the attack coming for him, Ye Xiu chose not to hide behind a tree, but to ferociously charge forward.
Boom!
Part of the qi from the Sky Piercing Strike slammed into the tree, giving off a muffled sound, followed by the rustling of the tree's leaves and branches. Ye Xiu hadn't chosen the safer method of dodging the attack - he seemed almost in a rush as he chased after Song Xiao.
