Not Enough Baleful Qi?

He swung again, slashing at the tentacles below to hold the Mountain God back.

Three blade energies tore across the valley. The Mountain God merely drew inward, and all three struck Dashan on his back.

But Dashan's defenses grew stronger closer to the ground. The three slashes left only three enormous scars.

As Earth Elemental Power surged once more, those scars quickly healed.
