The rank 2 version of the Poisonous Cloud Pill was one of the two offensive methods Liam had the time to prepare in the Roaring Thunder Sect, one he had stockpiled in great quantity.
So, as soon as the Lightning Step rang, while Liam was still mid-air, he snapped his sleeves at the reddish halo Julian had created, launching five pills simultaneously.
The hexagonal shields reacted on their own, snapping forward to intercept the pills. They could keep up with arrows accelerated by the Black Bow's adjustable string weight, let alone something Liam had manually thrown.
However, there was no Qi to reflect there. At least, even if the shields attempted to do that, the result wouldn't change.
The pills exploded into yellow tides of smoke at the impact with the shields, which expanded everywhere, covering the entire crossroad.
