Each sword hitting an enemy target will stack separate Sword Qi, with each Sword Qi dealing an additional 100 (+15% magic attack) magic damage when hitting a target enveloped in Sword Qi. The damage from the same Sword Qi is reduced to 50% after being triggered multiple times. Gan Jiang Moye’s basic attacks slash enemies, dealing 300 (+25% magic attack) magic damage.
