Chapter 163: The Beauty's Head

This rudimentary form of Aura Perception enabled him to glean insights about his surroundings.
Those in positions of power often exuded an aura of unassailable authority. The aura of merchants and commoners carried traits of cunning and pragmatism.
As for the bandits of the Nine Great Cloud-Linked Strongholds, each bore an aura steeped in bloodshed. Living as a group of marauders in the mountains, their essence was naturally wild and savage.
Aizen grabbed his bundle and prepared to dive into the underground river to evade the approaching group. Suddenly, he stopped, frowning deeply as a hint of killing intent flashed in his eyes.
A forceful, fiery aura locked onto him from afar. It was fierce, condensed, and carried a ruthless, predatory essence.
