In Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Mystic Power is a seemingly magical power associated with the Yōkai, and is used in various forms throughout their society. It takes many forms, including individual supernatural abilities as well as spells, potions, mystical objects and portals.
Origin[]
As revealed in the series finale "Rise", all mystic power in the Yōkai world is ultimately derived from Empyrean, a mutagenic substance which in the very ancient past poured from the eyes of a sacred giant statue in the Hidden City called the Crying Titan. Inside the statue's head lies the long-deceased skeletal remains of a Krang along with broken canisters which originally held the Empyrean. This same substance was also responsible for mutating the Yōkai in the very distant past.
The Kuroi Yōroi also has mystic powers, and it is implied that the Foot Clan use other mystic powers, such as the disembodied flames that appear on top of the heads of certain fully-inducted Foot Clan Members like the Foot Lieutenant and Foot Brute. But the history of the Hamato Clan tells that the Kuroi Yōroi was gifted to Oroku Saki 500 years ago by an oni—an individual of the same species as the skeleton found inside the Crying Titan's head. It is not specified whether these two Krang are the same individual or two separate individuals, and as such it is also not specified whether the power of the Kuroi Yōroi derives from the Empyrean or is a separate Krang technology.

Trivia[]
- In contrast to the mystic power of the Yōkai, there is another supernatural force, the Hamato Ninpō, which is instead described as a spiritual power rather than as a mystical one. This power comes from the combined spiritual force of all living and deceased members of the Hamato Clan, strengthened by the bonds they share as family.
