Background / History
Spiritual Power is first identified as one of Jia Lie Jun’s exceptional attributes when an old man at the Curio Building senses its strength. This potential leads Jia Lie Jun to pursue Rune Master cultivation and to accept Master Yan as his teacher. 4 5
The Divine Movement Chapter gives Jia Lie Jun a practical foundation for cultivating Spiritual Power. Soon after beginning, he can extend his senses through walls and perceive his surroundings beyond normal sight. 5
Later developments connect Spiritual Power directly to Jia Lie Jun’s rune mastery, talisman puppets, spiritual treasures, and increasingly advanced combat techniques. The Spirit Gathering Cushion allows him to merge Spiritual Power with Origin Energy, producing the Power of Origin Essence. 99 100
Abilities & Applications
Spiritual Sensing
Spiritual Power allows its user to perceive targets and environments beyond ordinary physical senses.
- Detects surrounding activity through walls. 5
- Enables Jia Lie Jun to sense and track others. 24
- Lets him detect the Heavenly Rune Spirit Tree within a stone palace. 228
- Helps identify Su Rou’s immense hidden power. 263
Rune Master Techniques
Rune Masters manipulate Spiritual Power as an offensive and defensive force.
- Jia Lie Jun uses it to defeat Jiang Li despite Jiang Li’s Minor Yuan Dan Realm cultivation. 12
- He forms a net of Spiritual Power to destroy incoming rocks and manifests a lava fire dragon against Luo Jiu. 90
- Hua Zong creates a sea of Spiritual Power and sharp swords during his battle with Jia Lie Jun. 103
- The Yin Puppet Sect combines Spiritual Power with Origin Energy to form a colossal talisman puppet. 121
Power of Origin Essence
The Power of Origin Essence is created by merging Origin Energy with Spiritual Power.
- Jia Lie Jun develops it through repeated experimentation using the Spirit Gathering Cushion. 100
- Its first successful manifestation destroys a wooden table. 100
- The Spirit Gathering Cushion is particularly valuable to cultivators specializing in Spiritual Power and is identified as a fifth-ranked ancient divine artifact. 99
Talisman Puppet Interaction
Spiritual Power is central to the use and opposition of Talisman Puppets.
- Jia Lie Jun commands a Talisman Puppet in battles against Di Teng and Liu Kui. 80 81
- Teng Lei uses a Talisman Puppet and Spiritual Power attacks against Jia Lie Jun. 117
- The Yin Puppet Sect deploys dozens of puppets through the Talisman Puppet Gathering Array. 120
- Jia Lie Jun disrupts enemy puppet formations with his own Talisman Puppet. 132
Limitations and Risks
- Spiritual Power can be drained by hostile techniques; Teng Lei’s Yin Puppet Great Law, Yin Demon Kill draws Spiritual Power from nearby cultivators to create a sonic-wave attack. 117
- Advancement may involve direct threats to the user’s soul, as shown when Jia Lie Jun faces a remnant soul attempting to possess him before becoming a Heavenly Rune Master. 232
- Not all spiritual treasures are broadly useful: the Spirit Gathering Cushion is initially overlooked because its benefits chiefly favor Spiritual Power cultivators. 99
