This is a soft whip, with a weave on the whip body resembling snake scales, so Lin Tian recognized it as a snake-like soft whip.
The snake-like soft whip is a traditional weapon, but due to its challenging control, few use it. However, when wielded expertly, the soft whip's attacks are uncanny, highly concealed, and powerfully impactful, splitting flesh with a single strike.
Additionally, the soft whip is considered a long weapon but lacks the drawbacks of long weapons; its attack range varies from near to far, and it can unleash its power even in confined spaces, unlike other long weapons.
Some soft whips have hidden blades in their heads, capable of taking an enemy's life if not careful. Situ Ruoling's swinging whip was also exceptionally tricky; though it didn't target vital spots, a single hit could still split flesh.
Lin Tian merely squinted his eyes, discerning the path of the soft whip, and silently moved half a step to evade the attack.
