Snap—
A yarn-like creature named Shadow Worm was mercilessly stomped flat by Puki.
Its body did not leave behind remains like ordinary creatures; instead, it quickly disintegrated and dissolved, like erasing ink, leaving nothing for the fungal mat to decompose.
Even using [Spiritual Vision], Lin Jun failed to capture any trace of a soul from this discarded insect.
It was as if it had never truly existed, just a void briefly projected into reality.
From any angle, this thing seemed unable to be a source of power for the [Greed] skill.
Moreover, the material costs for the entire summoning ritual were quite considerable.
Despite this, Lin Jun still decided to continue delving into abyss magic research.
This seemed to be the only current path with potential to glimpse the truth of this world.
At least, it was more reliable than praying to gods for answers.
