In the south west of Arx Polaris, there was two individuals who were walking at night, they seemed as if they were planning on something, Yuxuan was observeing both of them from above and found out that they were level 1 of the fire element.
this made Yuxuan a little interested in what they were doing because they were very secretive and cautious about what they were doing, so Yuxuan decided not to spoil the fun and go with the ways of uncovering the truth by observing them from a distance.
As they were walking, they saw an old man walking on the other side of the street, the man seemed to be just done with his life as depression was so vast in him that not only Yuxuan could sense it but also the two level 1 users.
So they secretly followed him, Yuxuan still didn't fully trust them yet so he holded his spear tightly and got in form to storm in and pull the old man away and "interrogate them" (he ain't doing shit, he will be clowning the hell out of them).
When the two men got to the old man, one of them was telepathically making him fall to sleep, the other one placed his thumb beneath the old man's tongue and used the rest of his hand to grab his chin.
From the old man's mouth came bright white particles that left his mouth and went into the hand of the man who holded his mouth, it turned out that these particles were actually neutral element but in the same time, Yuxuan was damn sure that this old man wasn't even a level 1 element user, in other words these two men extracted the dormant element out of the old man.
Yuxuan have had enough from this Bizarre scene that he witnessed and shouted from above the building he was standing on:
"AYY YOU MAD WEIRD DUO WHOM I DONT UNDERSTAND WHAT ARE THEY DOIN-" before Yuxuan finish his words, the two men fled away by turning themselves into black smoke that moved at 70 km/h, and Yuxuan said:
"Oh ho no you dont!!" As he free falled from the building, before he make contact with the ground, a green halo caught him and turned him into many forms of green coloured energy that looked like the falling stars that we see at the night skies, each one have gone into a different direction, perfectly surrounding the two men into one point.
When the smoke stood still in its place, through the smoke, came out the two men whom were running away from the unknown voice they heard from above the building.
One of the green forms of energy zoomed toward them and tied them up while the other forms combined with each other to rebuild Yuxuan's shape and form, after that, he asked them:
"What the hell are two weirdos like both of you doing in here? With that depressed old man?" One of them spoke and said:
"Okay fine, we will speak up,...we extract the dormant element out of the ordinary people who don't know that they have it-" Yuxuan interrupted him and said:
"How do you even detect dormant element when you are even level 1?"
"It might be impossible but it is not, maybe yes we can't detect it from people in happy or neutral modes but when they are sad, depressed, mad or even envious, we can detect a slight element fusion that is happening within these ordinary people.
We do that to stop a new corrupted element situation before it starts in the first place, it's like stepping on a cigarette in a gas station so that the cigarette doesn't interact with the gas that might fall on ground by accident." Yuxuan replied:
"So Basically you two are stopping a major threat while it is still in its birth phase before it grows up and becomes a retarded mindless animal, hmmmm, but that still doesn't answer the why 'the elephant is in the room' kind of question that we have in our hands and that is, how could two level 1 element users like both of you manage to detect dormant element?" Yuxuan's voice tone shifted and his smile vanished.
_____________________
Just to give you guys a reference, it takes a prodigy level 2 element user to detect the dormant element within the common folks and that is ONLY when there is a negative emotion is detected in them that makes interaction with the dormant element causing corrupted waves that can be detected by the level 2 prodigy.
A level 3 element user can detect it wither the individual is sad or neutral (or even happy, because in this situation happiness is like an equal to neutrality as it doesn't have an actual effect on the element, at least in the dormant level).
And that is exactly why Yuxuan knew something was wrong with these two and that is why his voice tone shifted from clowning into seriousness.

The two men looked at each other and the other one who have been silent all the time spoke up and said:
"May i know your name first?"
"Yuxuan."
"Okay listen up Yuxuan, have you heard of something called imagination fussing?"
"Yes i did, it's when a minimum of two individuals fuse with each other to make something absolutely powerful, what about it?"
"Well, we did something that is close to that thing, usually in most cases, fusion beings require the two individuals to merge into one but this one that we have been focusing on for every night throughout the last two years, we have drawn it, we have memorised it and made a special rule for it.
And that rule is that it will stay in our minds when the fusion happens, this being that we made, takes partial control over us, like our senses of vision and listening, in exchange it gives us the strong enough detection power to detect when the corrupted element is still growing in the hearts of other people."
"I don't trust you in a single bit, a fusion that stays in the mind of both of you in the same time and doesn't take full control, top all that off by making it exchange such a powerful detecting ability? At the cost of partial control? Like how?"
"You seem like a very strong imagination Yuxuan, can you look into our minds? And see him for yourself, don't worry, you wouldn't search alot as we are already thinking of him right now so you should find him easily." Yuxuan was silent for a moment because he doesn't have the ability to read mind so he said:
"Alright you two, stay here and i will back in less than a minute."
Yuxuan walked away and telepathically said:
"Yo Frektalyes, have you seen all that?" Frektalyes replied in his mind and said:
"(Sure thing i did hear and see everything, for that i will give full mind reading temporarily until we are done with these two.)" Yuxuan felt something funny in his head for a moment and got back to the two men and readed their mind.
He was surprised to see a monk in colourful cloth sitting like a monk, didn't have any muscle but had a very wholesome smile on his face, the monk said:
"Oh hello little one, came here to pay me a visit because you couldn't believe these two out there? Come, take a sit and have a drink with me."
Yuxuan couldn't refuse sat down and the monk started to explain to him how this special fusion works, at the end Yuxuan and Ahab
(yes Ahab because imaginations are bound with there imaginers and so anything the imagination learns, the imaginer learns it too, and the opposite is truth)
learned out that, fusions could also be completely made for psychic and telepathically purposes, and they will be so damn good at it.
Yuxuan then left there minds, recalled the form of energy that tied them up and said:
"Alright you two, i guess you are both free to go and spread the good deads you two are doing and yadyady ya whatever you two are doiNG WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT?!?!"
Yuxuan looked up at the far distance in the north west and saw a Massive yellow lightning bolt in the sky and said:
"The fuck is Yhormngan doing over there?"
