Sense Mana

Sense Mana: You have opened your mind to one of the energies that fuels this world. You can now sense mana in its raw form.Chapter 2: The System
Sense Mana is a high-tier extrasensory perception general skill which allows its user to perceive mana and certain related phenomenon. It is one of the skills that can be merged to obtain True Sense, the absolute best sensing skill, which is considered one of the 5 ultimate skills.Chapter 69: Kayafe's Advice
Upon reaching at least 30 breakthroughs in Sense Mana and capping the skill a world message will broadcast the user's unparalleled mastery, along with their receiving a legendary action point tailor-made to enhance the skill. A skill enhanced with this point will evolve and increase its base power tenfold, along with doubling it's level cap. Chapter 73: Back to the dungeon
Sense Magic is one of the enhanced forms of Sense Mana. In addition to all the capabilities of Sense Mana it allows the user to see true magic and magical phenomenon.

==Mechanics==
The normal range of Sense Mana is a sphere of radius 1m/level, but the perceptive field can be manipulated into any shape with a volume less than or equal to that sphere. The same limit applies collectively when operating multiple perceptive fields with the 16ᵗʰ breakthrough. When in the state of focus from the 17ᵗʰ breakthrough the range of the skill is increased by 2% per level (stacking additively with all other bonuses).Chapter 121: Other's Perspective 2
Sense Mana operates through a person's perceptive eyes, which are a metaphysical sensory organ, similar to how Mana Sight operates through a person's physical eyes. The function of a perceptive eye is to emit and receive perceptive vectors, which are a metaphysical flow of information which locate stimuli, such as mana, and return that information to their source.Chapter 193: Perceptive Attack
People without sensing or tracking skills still possess a perceptive eye which can detect when others' perceptive vectors are passing through it, which is why people get a sense of being watched when they are scried upon. Sense Mana users receive one perceptive eye per ten levels, though this amount is affected by bonuses from race and enhancement. When a perceptive eye is projected outside of the body, with the 47ᵗʰ breakthrough, it relays information back to the skill user through a metaphysical link, which can’t be traced through the same methods that perceptive vectors can. 
The 35ᵗʰ breakthrough allows for the manipulation of perceptive pressure, which is determined by how "open" a perceptive eye is, similar to the aperture of a camera. Perceptive pressure isn't necessarily omnidirectional and can be focused onto a single part of a perceptive field. A higher perceptive pressure allows the skill user to see in greater clarity; for those within a field of high perceptive pressure they describe having a feeling "Like being watched by a very powerful being." The power of a gaze skill scales with perceptive pressure.Chapter 231: Trusting Fate A lower perceptive pressure can be used to avoid triggering most retaliations and evade the notice of all but the most skilled trackers, though normal perceptive pressure is required for the Analyze function of the 21ˢᵗ breakthrough.
The 36ᵗʰ breakthrough allows for passive sensing by reading only the MM force that passes through a perceptive eye in order to extrapolate the location of mana in the vicinity.Chapter 117: Training Montage Because it projects no perceptive vectors, passive sensing is virtually untraceable and will almost always circumvent retaliations and perception-harming abilities.
The perceptive beams of the 48ᵗʰ breakthrough are formed by focusing maximum perceptive pressure into someone else's perceptive eye in order to overwhelm it. Perceptive pressure from multiple perceptive eyes can be combined for a greater overall pressure, but with diminishing returns. After being overwhelmed, unless the target has other perceptive eyes or a method of healing them, their sensing and tracking skills will be rendered unusable. A perceptive eye usually takes hours or days to recover on its own.
The 11ᵗʰ breakthrough allows the skill user to move the centre of a perceptive field roughly 100 times the radius of their perceptive sphere away from its source. That range applies to the distance that perceptive fields can travel from a perceptive eye, as well as the distance a perceptive eye can travel from the skill user, so the effective range of the 11ᵗʰ breakthrough is doubled once the 47ᵗʰ breakthrough is unlocked.
