I really can't control myself.

"You mean... something like using up all the points I have?" Shimizu Ritsu asked. "That won't work, because I currently have 0 points, they're completely used up, but that detector can still detect my location."

“I see. That means you do have emotional energy, but it’s not being fed back to you through the points system in the shop,” He Xinchangping said immediately.

The meaning was quite clear, and after thinking about it for a moment, the three of them understood what was going on.

Simply put, this entity called System Xiao Hei is taking a cut. For example, it obtains 100 units of emotional energy, but only gives you 60 units as a reward for exchanging for skills and equipment. The remaining 40 units are actually in your body, but if they are not displayed to you or allowed to be used, they are just stored on your body.

However, the emotional energy detector that Linton and Aizen created doesn't care whether it's visible points or hidden emotional energy; it can detect it anyway.

The problem now is this emotional energy. They can't eliminate it by spending points, and as Shimizu Ryū just mentioned, the system Xiao Hei didn't take it back directly; it just left it on them, which is why the detector keeps tracking its location.

If there is a way to eliminate these hidden emotional energies within oneself, then with zero energy, the detector will naturally be unable to detect them, and they can temporarily hide.

The problem now is, how can we consume it?

Contacting the system itself? That's clearly impossible. According to He Xinchangping's analysis, the other side intentionally wants them discovered, so why should they attract attention? Even if it truly had a way to eliminate these emotional energies, would it tell them?

Making it take away is even more impossible, because it would expose the other party's location, and they definitely wouldn't agree. Therefore, the guy who can best solve this problem certainly won't cooperate with them.

Aside from the system, they really couldn't think of any other way to consume this emotional energy. After all, before Shimizu Ritsu spoke, they didn't even know this energy existed and couldn't sense it at all.

Just as the other three fell silent, He Xinchangping suddenly spoke up: "In the end, the term 'emotional energy' wasn't actually created by the system Xiao Hei... right? It was a concept proposed by Aizen, Linton's subordinate, and that person named Asuna, who were researching this thing."

The three looked at He Xinchangping, not quite understanding what he meant by those words. What was the significance of this matter, given that it was brought up by someone?

“Since Aizen and Asuna call this emotional energy, it means that this thing is a form of energy. So is it possible that this thing, like spiritual power or demonic power, can be used for cultivation... or even, can be transformed into spiritual power or demonic power in some form…” He Xin Changping said.

He Xinchangping's words made their eyes light up, and they understood what he meant. If they had a way to utilize their emotional energy for cultivation, directly consuming it and converting it into their own spiritual power, wouldn't that clear out their emotional energy?

However, Shimizu Ritsu immediately frowned: "The problem is we don't have any techniques to convert these energies... right? We should need something like this, right? Even now, most awakened individuals probably don't know about emotional energy, let alone have developed any techniques to utilize it. At least, I've never heard of any." "This kind of energy is very difficult to observe, but we now know it exists. Linton's men went from knowing about this energy to researching it and developing equipment to detect it, and it didn't actually take them much time, right? Observation and cognition are difficult, but once discovered, it should be much faster... right?" He Xin Changping spoke with a hint of uncertainty.

Ritsu Shimizu frowned. He Xinchangping's previous analyses had been quite credible, and his reasoning ability was remarkably strong. But he truly couldn't agree with this statement.

Creating a cultivation technique is no easy feat. Among the many awakened individuals currently available, there are very few complete spiritual cultivation methods. Most are still in the stage of haphazard practice. So, to suggest cultivating a newly discovered energy source is utter nonsense.

"But besides this, do you have any other ideas?" He Xinchangping seemed to have seen through Shimizu Ritsu's thoughts and simply spread his hands and said, "Otherwise, we can only try to go to the base you mentioned and see if we can destroy that probe. Which method do you think is more realistic, mine or yours?"

Shimizu Ritsu was speechless. "So, do you think it's realistic to confront Linton head-on?" Although He Xinchangping's idea of ​​creating a new cultivation technique to consume emotional energy was somewhat far-fetched, it was still more plausible than going head-to-head with Linton. Thinking about it that way, even this seemingly unreliable idea started to make sense.

Shimizu Ryū began to seriously consider whether this method would actually work. Create cultivation techniques? Could they create them themselves? But he himself didn't even have a cultivation technique for spiritual power. He didn't need to cultivate his spiritual power; he bought it all from the system shop. Did he really need any cultivation techniques to improve it?

So they need to find someone who has already developed a complete spiritual energy cultivation method to ask how exactly to create a cultivation method? Although they are creating a cultivation method based on a different energy, at least that person has done research, right?

Just as Shimizu Ritsu was beginning to seriously consider the matter, He Xinchangping suddenly spoke up again: "However, before we do this, there is something else we need to figure out first."

"What?" Shimizu Ritsu's train of thought was interrupted, but she still asked immediately. As mentioned earlier, He Xin Changping was quite intelligent, a point Shimizu Ritsu acknowledged.

“We need to know how much time we have left,” He Xinchangping said. “You didn’t say before how much time Linton gave you to complete the task. If you don’t complete it, when will he become suspicious and start asking about it?”

“Well… he didn’t mention a timeframe either,” Shimizu Ritsu said. Since Linton hadn’t given him any time limit, he had volunteered and accepted the task. Linton didn’t say anything other than nod.

“If the timeframe is unknown, this will be very troublesome and difficult to plan,” He Xinchangping said.

"Ah..." At this moment, Shimizu Ritsu suddenly seemed to have thought of something and slammed her fist into her palm.
