Staying away from the knife was fairly easy. Staying away from a suddenly-manifested ice sword? Not so much. Its armor is hard, but not perfect. The icy blade strikes one of the curved plates of its exoskeleton, but rather than simply glancing off, it slides to the joint between plates and bites in.
The centipede-like spirit reels back with a hiss of pain as black ichor oozes from the wound. It tries to make an escape, but with the added reach of the sword, Kuai has plenty of time to continue to hack at it if he'd rather not let it get away.
