Background / History

Divine Sense is the power emitted by the Primordial Spirit. Ordinary cultivators generally use it only as a crude extension of mental power, while a Primordial Spirit cultivation method allows its full potential to be expressed 282.

Li Ye first encounters Divine Sense as an invisible attack capable of invading the sea of consciousness and destroying the soul. He survives because the initial mastery of his Indestructible Golden Body disperses the attack, establishing Divine Sense as difficult to predict and defend against 79.

After cultivating Spiritual Sense during closed-door cultivation, Li Ye develops an exceptional range through the mental strength generated by his powerful physique. His Innate Divine Body, Primordial Immortal Art, rare medicines, and repeated Primordial Spirit refinement subsequently elevate this power into one of his principal offensive methods 84 282 565.

By the Starry Sky era, Li Ye’s Divine Sense evolves into tangible red-and-blue Heavenly Fire Divine Sense. It later develops gang qi, an Immortal-Artifact-level Sword Armor around his Primordial Spirit, and ultimately a formed state capable of tempering his physical body in return 822 1252 1411.
