Chapter 53 Hidden Dragon in the Abyss, Carl's Ambition

Gripping the Mirror of Celestial Insight, Arius activated its power, consuming a portion of his remaining mortal gold and silver. As the ethereal glow faded, the previously fragmented Concealment Technique underwent a miraculous transformation.

What was once a single-page fragment had now become a three-inch-thick book, its cover inscribed with five ancient characters: "Concealment Technique: Upper Volume."

The Upper Volume of this technique was at level 2. When mastered, it enabled the practitioner to completely conceal their aura, appearance, voice, and cultivation level. Against most Level 5 cultivators and below, this technique could effectively render one invisible to their senses.

The Lower Volume, however, was truly extraordinary—a Level 4 technique. If perfected, it could deceive even those at the Level 5 stage or higher, making it nearly impossible for them to discern the practitioner's true state.
