Hearing this, a smug expression immediately spread across Qian Jin's face.
"Naturally! The technique I practice is known as the Shadow Concealment Skill! It is a proper second-tier cultivation technique. Once mastered to the Perfect stage, even experts in the Marrow Refining Realm wouldn't be able to detect it!"
