Compared to the defensive effects of traditional magic treasures, the flying sword treasure system mastered by Meishan possessed a unique advantage: a mechanism akin to counterattacking through defense.
The treasures wielded by Yang Xuanzhou, Han Fenghua, and Dongfang Shuci all achieved their life-saving purpose by constructing various forms of defensive spells.
