The soil kept coming out as Kyle channeled his mana. His mana was finite and having so much in the air was taxing on his body so he kept digging and throwing the soil that came out on the near ground.
Finally, the hole was around a few meters deep and Kyle saw a silhouette trying to go deeper. It was a big mistake, with Kyle being an Earth manipulator, he channeled his mana outside his body to the ground making it compress near the worm.
The poor creature could only try to wiggle its way out yet it was impossible because of Kyle's proficiency in manipulating the land.
He could have known about these worms before yet it was not possible, his full concentration all these days was on the new element. So digging for information about anything else was not necessary then.
