Since Dara had no cultivation base, there was no place to store these potent qi, thus he could only use them momentarily as they came.
The influx of qi and Dara's monstrous meridians ensured that his injuries healed at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"Roar?"
"Hiss?"
The two beasts blurted in shock when they suddenly saw Dara vanish from their sights.

With the uncanny level of familiarity the Old Patriarch had with the 'Ghost King Steps', it ensured that Dara arrived within close proximity of the duo unannounced, with the Mamba being the first in line.
"Leaf Cutter!"
Dara appeared momentarily because he had channelled all the qi in his body into his blades to launch that attack, thus, his amour lost the support of the qi and lost its camouflage properties.
But it didn't matter, because Dara's attack had made contact before any of them could react.
Slash! Clink!
