Of course, the reason for seeking a swift resolution also lies in the objective fact that the whirlwind on this side had been obliterated by the majestic power of his sword.
With the whirlwind gone, he couldn't leverage its force mid-air, and gathering wind again needed time. The masked man below acted decisively, giving him no opportunity. Time was running out, and summoning lightning from the void would be useless—his opponent wasn't afraid of lightning at all.
Without leveraging external forces, he had no ability to suspend himself mid-air or evade to the left or right. His cultivation realm wasn't high enough to perform such feats.
He was falling while the masked man was charging toward him. There was no way to avoid a confrontation—he could only face it head-on or seek an outright reckoning.
In truth, his close-range combat skills were formidable, so he had no fear.
