B. Difficult to see through or understand.

The word "opaque" means something is difficult or impossible to understand or grasp.

"His meaning" might be "opaque" because perhaps he uses jargon, elevated language, has knowledge someone else doesn't have, his speech delivery is confusing or what he is trying to convey is something entirely different.
