Just as the Fiery Eye was about to unleash its power, a figure suddenly appeared between the two.

Spreading his arms, he sent them all flying. "That's enough!"

The powerful force blasted all the flames in Xia's hand away, sending him sprawling to the side in a sorry state.

Hera was also sent flying backward, and the [Winter] she had pierced through separated from her, flying to the other side along with the corpse of [Spring].

Aikalen was stunned and stopped in mid-air.

[Xia] gritted her teeth and got up from the ground. When she saw that the person blocking her way was [Ground], the anger in her heart could no longer be suppressed and exploded.

"What are you trying to do?! Why are you stopping me?!"

He used his flaming claws to grab at his opponent.

With a thought, Xia felt a powerful gravity pressing her down onto the ground.

Then a large hand grabbed his head and slammed it hard against the ground.

White and red substances splattered out, and Xia immediately lost the ability to resist.

"Next, I will continue the trials and promulgate a new order."

[On the ground] [Summer] was casually tossed aside; the sound wasn't loud, but it clearly reached everyone's ears.

"Large-scale infighting among the Five Calamities is forbidden. Any significant disruption will result in judgment!"

He glanced at the Summer he had discarded, the half-dead Autumn, and the Winter that was coldly staring at him, and finally looked at a newly sprouted sunflower.

"[Four Seasons] Now, I will re-convict you... and confiscate your bodies!"

"ah?!"

[Xia], her head ablaze, crawled up from the ground, shouting, "Didn't you say you were innocent?!"

"Now we have it."

"Depend on! ! !"

Scorching flames gathered from its mouth, and with a roar, it spewed them toward the ground.

"Rocks are not afraid of the high temperature of flames."

With a gentle lift of his hand, flames engulfed his entire body.

But as the flames dissipated, the fire that could have reduced most of the city to ashes did not damage the ground in the slightest.

Upon seeing this, Xia kicked him.

Click!

[Ground] Grab his ankle and break it. Before he can make any other move, the fist, full of power, slams down.

boom--!

Xia's upper body exploded into a bloody mist that drifted in the air, while fresh blood gushed from her lower body like a fountain.

[Ground] released its grip, and the remaining half of its body lost all life and fell straight down, leaving only a ball of fire flickering beside it, as if cursing [Ground].

[Ground]'s gaze fell on [Winter], whose face turned pale instantly, and he tried to run away while stepping on the ice.

But before she could escape more than a few meters, a rapidly approaching rock smashed her to pieces, leaving only wisps of snowflakes.

Aikaren stared tremblingly at the overwhelming battle, and couldn't help but swallow hard.

He looked around and realized that his boss had disappeared without a trace, and immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

[On the ground] I walked in front of a sunflower that had just bloomed.

The flower trembled slightly, but the ground merely touched it gently before moving away.

A golden ripple spread out from him across the ground. He closed his eyes and carefully sensed every blade of grass and tree around him.

After a moment, [Ground] slowly opened its eyes and sighed softly at the sea beside it.

"【Life】, you can escape for a while in the ocean, but you can't escape forever. As long as that guy is there, you can't catch any creature in the sea."

"The moment you reach the ground, I will find you, so you'd better surrender."

Seeing that there was still no reaction on the sea, [the ground] stomped its foot.

Countless boulders surged up from the seabed, crashing through the surface and flying into the air. A blood-red figure was clinging to one of the boulders.

The moment the figure was seen, [the ground] surged forward and lifted it up.

"Accept your fate; you can't escape it."

Layers of hard crystals appeared on Hera's body, slowly covering her entire body.

Seeing that things were going badly, Ekalen grabbed his knife and rushed over to try to rescue Hera.

[On the ground] Turning her head to look at him, that familiar face made Aikaren pause in surprise.

But in that brief moment of distraction, Hera was trapped inside a giant rock cube with sides measuring five meters.

The strange runes on the cube flickered slightly, and [Ground] threw it into the sea, where it sank to the bottom.

"No!"

Aikaren threw the knife in his hand at the 'cage', attempting to cut it open.

However, they were blocked halfway by a diamond wall that rose from the ground.

The knife was inserted into the diamond-made wall, and the wall instantly turned into pixels and disappeared. The knife also stopped moving.

The knife dissipated and returned to Ekaren's hand. He wanted to fly into the sea to save Hera, but a large hand grabbed his arm.

"Stop now, or I will put you on trial."

Aikaren swung his knife at his face, but [Ground] dodged it by tilting his head and pinned him to the rocks.

“Five years. After five years, she will be free. I don’t want to put you on trial…Aikalen.”

Aikalen was startled.

"You...you know my name? Who are you?!"

Actually, based on the other person's face and knowing his name, he had already roughly guessed what was going on.

After a brief silence, the ground said, "I am Floran."

"Did you symbiotically possess Floran?! He's still a child!!"

Ekalen's eyes were bloodshot, and dragon bone cannons appeared around him, aimed at the ground.
