With that thought in mind, Su Yang no longer tried to hide it. He said, “Spirit Building, you’re a new little monster, so you might not be aware of it. I have a silver ability called [Space Traversing Eyes]. It can differentiate the emotions and authenticity of a person’s words.”
“That’s why all the answers you gave earlier could not escape my eyes. There were real and fake answers from you. For example, you’re not 86 years old at all. you’re actually the same age as Last Building. Another example, this old lady look you have now is your real body.”
“You won’t be able to lie to me. So… Tell me the truth.”
When Spirit Building, the old lady, heard Su Yang’s words, her drooping eyelids suddenly opened. She looked at Su Yang in shock. There was not a hint of age or twilight in her eyes. Instead, she looked like a young girl.
Obviously, as the new little monster, she did not expect Su Yang to have such a terrifying ability. This ability to see through people’s hearts was a killing machine wherever it existed.
After her identity was exposed, Spirit Building did not hide anymore. She slowly stood up. Even though she was still not tall, at least she looked like a “person”. She scratched her face and her old face was filled with awkwardness. “So, you have such an ability… I thought that I could keep on pretending.”
Su Yang was speechless.
Su Yang looked at the old lady with white hair and a face full of wrinkles. She looked like she was in her eighties but she was speaking in a young girl’s tone. Su Yang felt goosebumps all over his body. ‘Why is she so scary?’
He rubbed his arms and said, “I think it would be better if… You used your fake voice and actions to speak? You’re currently too creepy, you’re like a young girl wearing the skin of an old lady.”
Spirit Building responded with an “Oh”. She shrugged her shoulders like a young girl. “Do you think I want it to be like this?”
Su Yang replied, “Return to your usual movements and voice!”
Spirit Building was speechless
She slowly bent her back and placed her hands behind her back. “I…” Her voice still had not changed, she still sounded ethereal.
She covered her mouth with her hand and coughed. “Ahem. I, Okay… Done.” Her voice returned to the usual old, weak tone. “Actually, I don’t want to disguise myself, but something went wrong while I was cultivating my abilities.”
Su Yang’s eyes lit up. ‘Cultivation? As expected, this was not something given by the system. Instead, it’s something that could be cultivated by oneself?’
Su Yang asked, “Then, what are you cultivating? Can I cultivate it?”
Spirit Building lifted her eyelids and looked at Su Yang. She said weakly, “Actually, everyone has this ability. Or rather, it’s within all of your bodies.”
“It’s called Spiritual Energy.”
Spirit Building then slowly explained her real situation to Su Yang. Only then did Su Yang understand what had happened while he was adding a point.
According to Spirit Building, she was actually Last Building’s elder sister.
After Su Yang used [Advanced Life Evolution Voucher] to add a point, two souls were born from the unfinished building. She was born a while earlier than Last Building, so she was the elder sister.
However, it was precisely because there were two souls in one body that Spirit Building could not move because Last Building was still “hatching”. All she could do was stare at her surroundings in boredom.
At that moment, she realized that there were more than ten pale yellow light balls inside her body.
These balls of light were scattered all over her body like they were part of her body.
Spirit Building studied her body and realized that there were small balls of light all over her body. Her brain had the least amount while her tailbone had the most balls of light.
Due to her boredom, she tried to touch and move the balls of light with her mind. However, the balls of light were very obedient, following her every direction with just her thoughts.
Because the balls of light were mainly focused on her tailbone, she experimented with the balls of light on her tailbone. Originally, she only wanted to play with the balls of light, but something magical happened. Every time the balls of light on her tailbone moved, a new ball of light would be born, making it seem like a lot of fun for her.
Furthermore, the girl had nothing to do, so she started to “move” the balls of light.
Thus, she kept on moving and moving, not knowing how long she had been doing so. She only came back to her senses when Last Building hatched.
However, when she came back to her senses, she realized that she was in trouble! Even though her whole body was filled with this pale yellow glow, her body was incredibly weak.
She sensed that something was wrong, so she tried to salvage the situation.
After she tried various methods, she finally gathered the pale yellow balls and sealed them at her tailbone to stop them from moving.
At that time, her sister, Last Building was born and she asked why Spirit Building looked different from herself. Spirit Building then realized that she had turned into her 70s’ or 80s’.
She was shocked by how she looked and her mind went blank. She knew that she had gotten herself into trouble, so she was not in the mood to explain, so she casually said that she had been born eighty years ago while declaring that Last Building was her great-granddaughter…
Su Yang was dumbfounded.
‘Is this the story of how an honest child ended up getting into huge trouble from the legends?’
Spirit Building sighed and said like an old lady, “After that, I studied it for the past two days and roughly figured out what’s happened to me.”
“When I was enlightened, what I saw should be my “Life Force”. That life force is normally stored in a person’s tailbone. However, I kept moving this energy, causing me to become very powerful, but also draining away a large amount of my life force in the process.
“I’ve basically extracted all my life force from the past seventy years, which is why I’ve become like this…”
Su Yang was dumbfounded as he looked at Spirit Building’s wrinkled face and white hair. ‘No wonder she looks so old even though she is the same age as Last Building.’
However, Su Yang was curious. “Then what does this have to do with spiritual energy?”
Spirit Building hammered her waist and said nonchalantly, “I call this life force “Spiritual Energy”. After all… I’m the first person to discover this.”
Su Yang was speechless.
‘No problem, my friend.’
After Spirit Building finished massaging her waist, she placed her hand by her mouth and coughed twice. Then, she said, “However, while I’ve been inside Last Building’s body over the past two days, I have actually researched this ability of mine and have also asked Last Building to test it.”
“I realized that this type of energy has existed in a human’s body from the very beginning. Everyone should have a way to activate it, so this should be something that can be cultivated.”
Su Yang asked in surprise, “Can I do it too?”
Spirit Building reached out her wrinkled hand. “Come, let me touch you.”
Su Yang asked, “Where?”
Spirit Building replied, “Butt.”
Su Yang was speechless.
Looking at Spirit Building’s face that was about to go down six feet under and her chicken claws, Su Yang gulped. ‘Spirit Building seems to be trying to take advantage of me…
‘However, on second thought, Spirit Building is actually a beautiful young lady. It’s only because her life force was drained that she’s become like this.’ Hence, Su Yang hesitated for a moment before agreeing.
Of course, Su Yang still cared about his pride. Hence, he waved at the other little monsters. “Turn around!”
The little monsters tried to hold back their laughter and turned around, including Su Yang. He kept his back facing towards Spirit Building while he kept an eye on the little monsters.
As expected, the little brats were not that obedient. For example, Little Hus, Little Deeny and Gru who were the first of Su Yang’s little monsters Su Yang would glance back from time to time, wanting to see Su Yang being touched.
However, Su Yang was in their blind spot, so he pretended not to see anything.
Spirit Building walked behind Su Yang slowly, step by step. Then, she stretched out her hand from her back and touched Su Yang’s butt.
She touched Su Yang’s butt a couple of times. Then, as if she was not satisfied, she moved her hand and grabbed onto Su Yang’s T-shirt before reaching directly inside his pants and grabbing onto his butt.
Su Yang tried to control himself… But failed in the end. He gritted his teeth and said, “Are you done?! You’re only 18 years old! Are you trying to behave outrageously?!”
Spirit Building retracted her hand out of Su Yang’s pants reluctantly. She coughed and said in her weak and aged voice, “I’m already 86, it’s not outrageous at all.”
Su Yang was speechless.
‘Is there a difference?
‘This perverted woman…
‘Why did I end up with such a girl… Old lady from adding a point?
Su Yang pulled up his pants and turned around. “How is it? Can I cultivate it?”
Spirit Building did not play around this time. She nodded. “I touched your tailbone and did sense spiritual energy within.”
She paused and said, “Actually, I should say that all of you have spiritual energy.”
As she said that, her droopy eyelids opened. Her eyes seemed to have a ball of fire burning inside them, shining brightly.
She scanned the group of monsters and nodded again. “I was right, all of you have it. I guess it’s because all of you have special powers like I do.”
Su Yang touched his chin and pondered. ‘Rather than saying that all of us have special abilities, she would be more accurate to say that we’ve all had our points added before.
‘After all, little monsters like Fei Fei and the Little Monster Beans don’t have any special abilities.
‘The only thing common between all of us is that we’ve had our points added before.
‘Could adding points be the process of injecting spiritual energy into our bodies?
‘Or could it be the process of stimulating a living being’s body to produce spiritual energy?’
Su Yang pondered for a moment before removing the [Danger Detecting Chopsticks] from his neck, a tool that could detect danger. Su Yang had always hung it around his neck to keep him safe.
After removing his [Danger Detecting Chopsticks], Su Yang asked Spirit Building, “Is there any spiritual energy in this?”
Spirit Building’s eyes burned again. She took a look and nodded. “Yes.”
‘Sure enough!
‘In that case, it’s definitely caused by the added points!
‘After all, this pair of chopsticks isn’t a living thing, it’s an inanimate object. However, it has spiritual energy, this alone is enough to show that the system has injected spiritual energy into the bodies of any objects or living beings by adding points onto it, causing all kinds of qualitative changes.
‘So… The system, the special abilities, the little monsters, the essence of everything is this spiritual energy?
‘In that case, other than the items and living beings from the system, do anything else have spiritual energy?
‘Could spiritual energy really be the life force of all living creatures?’
With that thought in mind, Su Yang brought Spirit Building out for a walk the next day. He wanted to see if the other creatures had spiritual energy.
The result surprised Su Yang…
