The Devouring Worm's soul had been cursed!
Just like the Blood Soul Curse the Lord of Darkness had cast upon all humanity, this curse also came from a god. It didn't take a guess to figure out that it was Uldren, the Crawler.
His Foolishness Curse!
Rayne's Soul Eye quickly discerned the curse's effects. It caused the Devouring Worm to lose its ability to think, leaving it without self-awareness or emotional fluctuations, with only the instincts of a living creature remaining.
Without emotions, it naturally had no fear.
All kinds of mind-affecting spells that could inflict pain, fear, hallucinations, or Charm had lost their effect on the Devouring Worm.
Moreover, the Devouring Worm had never possessed sight or hearing in the first place. Unable to see or hear, it could only track nearby moving enemies through touch. The Foolishness Curse had reduced its intelligence to nearly zero, leaving its soul in a state of Blind Foolishness forever. Its body, however, remained extremely powerful, turning it completely into a living killing machine.
It was like casting Feeblemind on an idiot or using Blindness Spell on a blind man.
Naturally, it was completely useless.
Rayne had originally thought that only a Legendary Element like Will of Truth, which maintained a calm and resolute mind at all times, could grant immunity to mental and soul attacks.
Only now did he realize that Blind Foolishness could do the same.
Will of Truth and Blind Foolishness were two extremes, but their effects were identical!
Blind Foolishness was a common trait among most crawling creatures. As the god of the Crawlers, it wasn't strange for Uldren to have mastered this curse.
The Foolishness Curse also had a controlling effect, ensuring absolute obedience to Uldren's commands.
The fastest way to kill the Devouring Worm was to remove
