Not to sound like an ungrateful prick but we barely got any spirit stones yesterday. 😒😒😒
So drop your shit before you proceed or else 🔫 🗡️

Seeing the notifications Levi understood what happened and was glad that he had that sort of protection just in case, he of course didn't select the purge option, he didn't know what would happen to the poor dragon if he did so.
After selecting the "NO" option Levi felt his vision go blank for a second even though his eyes were closed, he felt as if his while body was going through a metamorphosis, he didn't know how long it lasted, but it seemed it wasn't that long as he noticed that not much had changed when he opened his eyes.
That is on the outside world at least, on the inside he felt like he was a completely different person, he could feel himself stronger, faster, and more agile.
He could also feel Acnologia's shock inside of him, it was a weird feeling that will definitely take both of them a while to get used to.
It also seemed that Levi could now sense Acnologia's location, like now he could feel his precise location was where he was standing, he felt that no matter how far Acnologia was he would still be able to feel it, and it seemed to be the same for Acnologia as well, 'So that's the power of a spiritual bond.' thought Levi in amazement.
'What kind of sorcery is this?.' Acnologia seemed to say which Levi understood through their new established link, Acnologia didn't speak or word that out but Levi Understood it nonetheless, it was magical.
This was also another bonus aside from feeling each other's location, from now on he didn't need to interpret Acnologia's expressions or anything, he just understood him right away.
After that Levi noticed the changes to his own body, he could feel immense strength and vitality flowing through his entire being . And he could especially feel his Chi reserves, it felt like he had endless Chi at his beck and call, so much in fact that it was making him intoxicated.
And not just that, Levi could feel an extra limb on his back etching at him to use it, trying to stretch that extra limb, a pair of beautiful big black dragon wings sprouted from his back shocking both Levi and Acnologia -who seemed to be able to observe what was happening outside- senselessly.
"Holy shit." cursed Levi, not able to stop himself due to his shock as he started twisting and turning trying to feel and see the new addition on his back, "Buddy are you seeing this." he asked Acnologia in disbelief, who gave him an affirmative answer.
(An: for people who are confused about how they're talking just think of it as telepathy)
It was a weird feeling both talking to Acnologia like that and the changes all around his body, deciding to get a more accurate judgment of his current self he pulled up his states.

Seeing his updated states Levi was at a loss of words he didn't know how to react, saying he was happy would be an understatement, especially when he saw his chi state.
'With so much Chi I can switch back to my physical form at any time.' he exclaimed in his head in excitement.
Levi couldn't help but be ecstatic, he was getting stronger day by day and getting closer to going back home, and it seemed Acnologia had also gotten stronger since the last time he checked his states.
With this, one of the two major problems that were keeping him from returning to his home were fixed, now he only needed to focus on finding a way back.
"Ha-ah, thank you buddy." said Levi, sighing, addressing Acnologia who was confused. He was really thankful for his scaly companion, the dragon thought seemed like he didn't comprehend what all this meant and the full implications of it.
'Sometimes I forget he's just a child.' Thought Levi smiling wearily and hoping that Acnologia didn't hear him, which seemed to be the case as he didn't get any reply.
'So he can only hear me if I wish for him to do so?' wondered Levi in his head, 'And it seemed that he didn't see the system tap earlier, which in hindsight was kind of stupid pulling it like that without making sure that he can't see it.' thought Levi embarrassed by his rash decision.
It isn't that he didn't trust Acnologia, the opposite actually he trusted him a lot more than some of his tribesmen, which was a weird thing to say about a dragon of all things, that he only met like a month ago and they were trying to kill each other but that's how he felt, and now that he was bound to him he trusted him even more.
But, the system was his greatest support and greatest secret, he wouldn't reveal its existence to anyone not now or ever, and with Gamer's mind nobody can dig into his mind and see his secrets.
Levi suddenly got a curious prompt from Acnologia, he could even imagine him tilting his head in curiosity, it seemed that he was standing around and thinking for far too long.
"Sorry about that buddy, I was just too shocked with the changes." said Levi, which seemed to satisfy Acnologia as he too was a little startled by it.
Closing his eyes and trying to feel any new changes to his body Levi felt a weird feeling in his throat going all the way down to his stomach, he was a little confused by what it was at first before he had an idea.
Opening his eyes and looking straight forward Levi took a deep breath in filling his lungs with air, and just as he was about to exhale he concentrated on that strange feeling on his throat and stomach before exhaling.
What came out of Levi's mouth next wasn't a normal breath but a huge breath of fire that stretched to the far end of the cliff he was on and scorched it black wherever it passed, scarring the parrots that were close by senseless as they backup and observed him from afar while trembling with fearful look on their faces.
'Oops.' thought Levi feeling really guilty as he hurriedly closed his mouth, stopping the fire breath.
The birds had invited him into their home, took care of him and Acnologia, and treated him really well and now he had just gone and burned a part of their home, 'At least there were no casualties.' thought Levi, trying to comfort and cheer himself up.
Looking at the burning grass and scorched ground Levi couldn't help but feel a little depressed, he really miss his bending powers, if he had his water bending right now he could have just extinguished that fire with a wave of his hand, thankfully it wasn't that serious and would just flicker out in no time.
He remembered the system notification when he had first arrived to the spirit world, it said that his bending wasn't strong enough to fight against the spirit world suppression, not that he couldn't use his bending in the spirit world. Sadly he couldn't think of a way to train his bending to make it strong enough to fight against the suppression without being able to use it.
'Ha-ah, it seems I will have to wait till I am back to the physical world.' sighed Levi regretfully, thankfully that goal did not seem as impossible now.
"Sage should be done with his…." said Levi pausing to find the right word before continuing , "Escapades."
"Why don't we pay him a visit, what do you say?." asked Levi as he willed for Acnologia to separate from him, which he instantly did as a bright light appeared on his chest from which Acnologia came out head first landing on his feet and shaking himself off like a dog that just got out of water.
Levi immediately felt his body becoming weaker and his absurd Chi reserves plummeting to almost non-existent -in comparison to how they were before- It also put into perspective how weak he actually was compared some beings out there, he had been getting full of himself recently and getting a little cocky but this experience had shattered all of that.
He noticed something that made him shudder when he had been bond with Acnologia just seconds ago, 'If he knew how to use his Chi reserves I wouldn't have lasted a second in our first encounter.' he thought wearily as he looked at his scaly friend who was now chasing a spirit butterfly around, blissfully unaware of the incredible power his body was holding.
He felt like he did that day when he fought the polar bear, he felt weak and helpless, except the enemy this time wasn't as obvious, it was the hidden dangers of the spirit world and its inhabitants, he had been safe all this while but the moment he left the parrots territory he didn't know what he might face.
What if he encountered a spirit as strong or stronger than Acnologia who DID know how to use its full power?
'I am still weak, I need to get stronger, much much stronger, strong enough that I can protect myself, my friends and my family from all threats that might come our way.' thought Levi in determination while clenching his fists, before turning around and walking towards sage's Thorne room, it was time to say goodbye.
Seeing him go, Acnologia looked between him and the spirit butterfly, seemingly making the most difficult decision in his life before finally turning around reluctantly and running after Levi.
'At least I am not alone.' thought Levi, feeling warmth envelop him as he looked at the small dragon walking and hopping alongside him.
