Chapter 408 - The Powerful Spirit Concealment Bead I Made It
Jiang Zixuan was somewhat baffled, yet she accepted the Spirit Concealment Bead that Jiang Hao handed to her. Holding the bead, she couldn't help but ask with curiosity, “Brother, what's this? Is it a pearl?”
The Spirit Concealment Bead, though crafted from pearls and glass, had evidently undergone a unique transformation. It bore a resemblance to a pearl, yet it radiated a peculiar energy—an energy that was intangible and invisible. Remarkably, this energy had the ability to suppress the distinctive aura that only a martial cultivator possessed.
Upon Zixuan taking the bead, Jiang Hao's eyes lit up with surprise. He could no longer detect the special martial cultivator's aura emanating from her. His delight was palpable.
This revelation was significant for Jiang Hao; it confirmed that although his power greatly exceeded Zixuan's, he had not surpassed her by an entire major realm. Consequently, the first-grade Spirit Concealment Bead proved to be entirely effective in concealing the martial aura of his family members. If even he couldn't perceive it, others stood no chance.
Despite this, even Jiang Hao, whose strength was many times that of an ordinary person, couldn't penetrate the bead's veil of secrecy. It meant that he and Zixuan were still on par in terms of their cultivation realms—both residing within the first realm of martial cultivators. The sheer power of this initial realm intrigued him, and he became even more eager to explore the subsequent realms and to rapidly bolster his own strength.
Meanwhile, Jiang Zixuan observed her brother's expressions shift between excitement and anticipation. Curiosity piqued, she wondered what thoughts were racing through his mind. “Brother, brother!” she called out.
Snapped out of his reverie by her voice, Jiang Hao turned to her. “Brother, what's on your mind? What exactly is this thing?” Zixuan pressed, her inquisitiveness shining through like that of a child brimming with questions.
Jiang Hao met her gaze, his face breaking into a warm, reassuring smile.
“Nothing at all,” he replied, then gestured towards the Spirit Concealment Bead. “This is a treasure, known as the Spirit Concealment Bead.”
“It has the power to hide the aura of a martial cultivator. Only someone of a significantly higher cultivation realm could possibly see through the illusion it creates!”
Upon hearing this, Jiang Zixuan was startled. Since becoming a martial cultivator, Jiang Hao had shared with her many essential insights. For instance, martial cultivators emit a unique aura. A cultivator of a higher realm can gauge another's strength based on this aura. Yet, as one's cultivation progresses, they learn to mask their aura, making it difficult for those of lower realms to detect them. But the bead her brother had given her could actually conceal a martial cultivator's aura—this was no ordinary item!
Overwhelmed with emotion, Jiang Zixuan felt a surge of gratitude towards her brother. She quickly offered the Spirit Concealment Bead back to Jiang Hao. “Brother, you should keep this treasure. I won't need it for now.”
Jiang Hao, perceiving Jiang Zixuan's reluctance, insisted, “Keep it. It was meant for you from the start. Besides, I have no use for it.”
“Moreover, while the Spirit Concealment Bead may be invaluable to others, it's not the same for me. If I ever want one, I can make it myself anytime.”
As Jiang Hao's words sank in, Jiang Zixuan caught on to an astonishing detail. She stared at him, wide-eyed with amazement. “Brother, you created this?”
Jiang Hao simply nodded.
“Alright, this one's for you. I'm going to make another for Mom and Dad as well.”
