Spirit Worm

Shawa Shawa still hasn't advanced, but her body has visibly grown larger. Du Ke took out a tape measure and measured her height, which has reached 42 centimeters, making her a large-sized figure.

"Shawa Shawa, how long do you think it will take for you to advance?"

"Hmm, if I can eat Spore Powder every time, I should be able to advance in three days."

"With me here, you can eat as much as you want, and the other Flower Spirits can eat as much as they want too." Du Ke found the joy of nurturing and decided to increase the supply of Spore Powder. Tomorrow, he plans to go to the forest again to find Devil Explosion Flowers; such good things can't be wasted.

"Du Ke."

Xise Xise rode her Displacer Beast Spirit over, a strange bug in her small hand: "For you."

"What is this?" Du Ke caught the bug with his glove. The bug was about the size of a finger-long caterpillar, but its entire body was jade-like and translucent. It didn't have the disgusting feel of a caterpillar at all; instead, it gave a feeling of purity and beauty.

"Abrulu guguji ji!" Xise Xise said in the Flower Spirit language, but Du Ke didn't understand.

Shawa Shawa translated for him: "Bug, it fell from it." She pointed to the Displacer Beast Spirit, meaning that this bug fell from the Displacer Beast Spirit.

Du Ke was surprised: "A parasite on the Beast Spirit?"

Xise Xise nodded, then shook her head: "Bug, good, Magic."

With gestures and guesses, Du Ke finally understood what Xise Xise meant. This bug grew out of the Displacer Beast Spirit. It is a special "Spirit Worm" that absorbs the Magic abilities of the Displacer Beast before it died and can grant this Magic ability to others. To make Du Ke understand, Xise Xise personally demonstrated. She patted the bug's butt, and the bug bit Xise Xise's palm.

The next moment, Xise Xise shouted and disappeared instantly.

When she reappeared, she was three meters away.

"See, Du Ke, bug, Magic, Displacer Beast's Magic!" Xise Xise shouted again and used it a second time, instantly teleporting in front of Du Ke, then proudly held up the Spirit Worm in her hand, "For you."

"You want to give it to me?"

"Yes."

"Thank you!" Du Ke couldn't refuse such a good thing and directly took the Spirit Worm. "By the way, let me see your hand; was there a wound from the bite?"

He checked Xise Xise's small hand. He had clearly seen the Spirit Worm bite her palm just now, but now there was no wound at all.

Xise Xise proudly replied: "Bug, good, won't hurt me. Du Ke, you, try."

"Really?" Du Ke was a little unsure.

The key is that this Spirit Worm is so magical. It doesn't feel like a carbon-based life form at all. It actually grew out of the Displacer Beast Spirit. Du Ke's understanding of the Displacer Beast Spirit has always been as a "soul," thinking it was the soul of the Displacer Beast he killed. As a result, a parasite grew out of the soul, and it was such a beautiful bug like jade.

More importantly, this bug can grant Magic to others.

So, what are the component materials of the Spirit Worm: the soul, or Magic Element?

He wasn't in a hurry to let the Spirit Worm "bite" him, but continued to ask: "Xise Xise, will the Displacer Beast Spirit grow more Spirit Worms?"

Xise Xise shook her head: "Spirit Worm, impurities, Displacer Beast Spirit, more clean, firm."

Seeing that communication in the Flower Spirit language was inconvenient, Du Ke simply used Touch of Mind, connecting with Xise Xise and directly starting communication between minds. After several touches between thoughts, he completely understood the existence of the Spirit Worm--the Displacer Beast Spirit is a summoned creature and is no longer the original Displacer Beast, but it is not pure enough. Under normal circumstances, the Displacer Beast Spirit will soon collapse and dissipate.

However, the Flower Spirit's Nature Spirit Summoning helped it, allowing it to "grow," and its growth process is to constantly strip away impurities. Among them, the Magic "Instantaneous Movement" that the Displacer Beast naturally carries, because of its special nature, accidentally formed a Spirit Worm during the stripping process.

As for how Magic became a Spirit Worm, Xise Xise obviously didn't understand.

Du Ke could only guess that perhaps Magic Elements are a special substance related to the soul, so that it can form a living Spirit Worm. This also answers why Long-Haired Bombs cannot explode on Earth because there are no Magic Elements; and how the air element analyzer measures the air of the Fantasy World, whose constituent elements are no different from Earth's air.

Because Magic Elements are not physical substances at all.

After thinking it over.

Du Ke decided to risk trying the Spirit Worm's ability. He followed the method taught by Xise Xise and gently patted the Spirit Worm in his hand. The Spirit Worm gently bit the skin of his palm. But unlike Xise Xise, the Spirit Worm passed through the skin of his palm without any hindrance and drilled in. This startled Du Ke, and in an instant, he felt an "extra part" in his left palm.

The Spirit Worm must have bitten into the nervous system, connecting it to Du Ke's brain.

"Don't panic, Du Ke!" Xise Xise shouted.

Du Ke came back to his senses, calmly nodded, and then began to feel the Spirit Worm. Soon, he felt a special symbol in his left palm, as if he could activate it with just a thought.

He moved his mind and activated the symbol.

The next moment, he had left the bird's nest dwelling and was standing in the blue reed bushes five meters away. Without any warning, he had moved five meters out of thin air. With the help of the Spirit Worm's ability, he released his first Magic in the Fantasy World--Instantaneous Movement.

"Ha!"

"Haha!"

"I released Magic!" Du Ke was so excited that he almost roared to the sky.

"Du Ke."

"Du Ke."

The Flower Spirits flew over, crowding around him and making a fuss. He solemnly thanked Xise Xise: "Thank you for the Spirit Worm you gave me. I don't have much to repay you with. I've decided to provide you with another pound of Spore Powder, hoping that you can all complete your advancement with these Spore Powder." This decision made the Flower Spirits cheer, but Xise Xise didn't seem to care about advancing or not.

After giving the Spirit Worm, she rode the Displacer Beast Spirit and wandered around freely.

Du Ke's gaze followed the Displacer Beast Spirit for a while, and he found that Xise Xise had run out of the Sea of Flowers several times and went to the farther bushes. Obviously, this is a Flower Spirit with a spirit of exploration.

"Instantaneous Movement!" Du Ke looked at his bird's nest dwelling, and his mind activated the Spirit Worm symbol in his palm.

The next moment, he successfully stood in the dwelling.

"Beautiful!"

Du Ke laughed with satisfaction. He had completely learned Instantaneous Movement Magic. He only needed to look at a certain position and then trigger the Spirit Worm symbol. The displacement distance is about ten meters, and the consumption mainly consumes the Spirit Worm's energy. After two consecutive consumptions, plus the one Xise Xise consumed before, the Spirit Worm was a little weak and needed to replenish it. Replenishment is simple; just keep it in the body to nourish it.

"This can also be considered parasitism... no, it's symbiosis, right? The Spirit Worm provides me with Instantaneous Movement Magic, and I provide it with the nutrients it needs." Du Ke spread out his left palm, and with a thought, the Spirit Worm quickly drilled out from under the skin, lazily lying in the palm of his hand. He patted its butt, and it drilled into his palm again, connecting a nerve, and just lived in Du Ke's hand.
