**Divine Sense (神念)** is a game-changer in the Xianxia power hierarchy. It is a soul-based perceptual and telekinetic ability that normally only awakens at the Primal Daoist stage—several cultivation tiers above Xiantian. Ji Ning's possession of it at this level is an extreme anomaly, marking him as a true freak genius. Because its unwitting use could expose his ultimate secret, he only deploys it here as a desperate, no-escape gamble. The moment the stone flies, it's all or nothing.

Story context

The final battle between Ji Ning and the black-robed senior apprentice-brother reaches its bloody zenith, delivering one of the most satisfying takedowns yet. Ji Ning lands a brutal kill against a peak Xiantian adversary—but only by playing his trump card: divine sense. And as the echoes of his berserk howl fade, the mountain belly’s mysterious master stirs in rage, pulling a young disciple into the abyss. This chapter is a masterclass in Xianxia's signature rhythm: a desperate gambit, a shocking reversal, and the dark promise of an even deadlier threat on the horizon.

Why it matters

This chapter is a pure adrenaline shot. The battle is tight, the stakes are personal, and the victory is earned but ugly. Note how Ji Ning’s use of divine sense is not a flashy spell but a raw, physical trick: a telekinetically thrown rock. That’s the beauty of Xianxia combat—powers are rooted in the world's physics, not abstract magic. We also get a fantastic contrast between the arrogant senior and the trapped, desperate youth, making the kill all the sweeter. And that cliffhanger—the master calling Little Seven into the forbidden hole—sets up the next phase. Expect a confrontation with the Zifu Disciple himself, and possibly a deeper horror lurking below.
