This is precisely the effect of the Frost power; even the Sword Qi carried this Frost power within it. Once wounded, the chilling force would invade the opponent's body, and if not driven out quickly, the entire person would likely be frozen into a block of ice.
Sensing that something was clearly wrong, the Elder of the Spirit Heart Valley quickly retreated while simultaneously shaking the True Essence power within his body to shatter the ice crystals at the wound. He then produced a pill, crushed it, and applied it to the injury to stanch the bleeding, swiftly returning to normal.

Every additional sword scar made his movements a bit more sluggish. Gradually, he was reduced to continuous defense, with no opportunity to counterattack whatsoever.
