The legendary grade was important but Souta didn\'t have earth affinity. It would be useless to him.

He rubbed his chin and recalled the people from Astros. Alice and the others didn\'t have earth affinity. Also, acquiring the Earth Energy Mango would be hard since there was a pack of monsters guarding it.

Hiding at the top of the tree was a group of apes with white fur. There were six fourth stage monsters and dozens of third stage so snatching the Earth Energy Mango required great courage and skills.

\'If Isabella is here, I could probably try it since her stealth skill is better than mine.\' Souta said inwardly.

He turned his head at Alexander and wondered what he was going to do.

Alexander knew what Souta wanted to ask so he shook his head. "Let\'s not fight for it. It\'s too early to use our strength." He said.

The Multiple Elements Realm was his so he knew that there were other treasures in this place. Also, the danger it possessed was something that he could underestimate. Ten thousand years had passed so it\'s natural that legendary grades could be found.

"Be careful..." Alexander slowly retreated.

Souta didn\'t have a choice but to follow this guy. Since Alexander said it, there were definitely more opportunities in the future. This world was huge so there was no way that he wouldn\'t find anything.

He could only agree with Alexander. It\'s too early to waste their energy. If they weren\'t careful, they could become powerless people waiting to be slaughtered.

Souta and Alexander turned around and left. It\'s not easy to snatch a legendary fruit from six fourth stage monsters. They would have to use great effort to achieve that feat.

A day had passed and a lot of battles occurred. The experts that passed the fifth trial quickly fought for resources after they arrive in this realm. They snatched and fought everything that got their attention. Even those powerful experts died after they exhausted their energy.

All this time, Souta and Alexander were simply traveling throughout the woods without caring about the battles. They were reserving their energy.

"Just what are you planning? Are you planning to sweep everything once they exhausted their strength?" Souta asked.

"No, I\'m waiting for the key to appear. At that time, I want you to protect me." Alexander said.

"Key?" Souta was slightly confused.

"Yeah, a key." Alexander nodded but he didn\'t explain the details.

"When?" Souta simply asked.

"Sooner... That\'s why we need to go now." Alexander said before he increased his speed.

Souta didn\'t say anything. Instead, he just followed Alexander. Both of their figures flashed through the forest. Ordinary people wouldn\'t be able to follow their movements with their eyes. Their speed was unbelievably fast.

It\'s just their ordinary speed. They didn\'t even use their energy to boost their speed, afraid that they would attract everyone\'s creature.

Swoosh!!

The two passed through a huge forest and they arrived in a massive desert. While they were traveling, Alexander explained things about this realm to Souta. Important things about the Multiple Elements Realm.

Souta saw how large the Multiple Elements Realm from above. Alexander said that every creature here was a monster. There were no humans or demis.

The monsters here were fearsome. They grew powerful by fighting each other for a long time. They wouldn\'t listen to any words as it was killed or be killed in this realm. They were territorial as they would attack any creature that entered their territory.

"We\'re here." Alexander stopped in the middle of nowhere.

Souta was a little bit confused since the two of them were just standing in the middle of a vast desert. There\'s nothing in their vision except for endless sand.

"Don\'t tell me..."

Souta looked down and his eyes adjusted. He saw through the layers of sand and found an object slowly rising toward the surface.

"Yeah, but before that, we need to prepare ourselves," Alexander said as he looked at his surrounding.

"Hmm...?" Souta also noticed creatures approaching them at high speed. He looked over and realized that these creatures were swimming through the sand.

"Sandworm? There are quite a number of them... Plus, there\'s a fourth stage monster within their ranks."

Souta grinned as he cracked his knuckles.

"Leave it to me... Let me have some fun with these monsters."

Killing intent slowly seeped out of his body. The bloodlust that he was holding back suddenly gush out of his body like a raging tide. It flooded the whole area and it even stopped the approaching sandworms for a few seconds.

When Souta sensed that they still proceeded despite sensing his bloodlust, the smile on his face grew wider.

Alexander sighed as he noticed that Souta was getting carried away. Even if he stopped Souta, he knew that Souta wouldn\'t stop until he satiated his boredom.

\'Still... This bloodlust is terrifying... Just how many people did he kill for it to gather this amount?\'

Alexander turned around and focused his attention on the object below. He would get the key to control the Multiple Element Realm and while doing so he would be vulnerable. That\'s why he wanted Souta to protect him.

Huff!

Alexander raised his hands and a huge amount of mana burst out. Several layers of barriers with different elemental powers formed around him.

"These barriers will last for ten minutes..."

He muttered as he focused his attention on the sand. The area in front of him started to move. Soon, a five-meter tall metal pillar emerged from the sand. The pillar was black with white stripes and a spherical object at the center of it.

"It\'s here..."

He knew that once he try to acquire the key, his power would be suppressed to the limit. Even experts below his level would be able to match him. It\'s worse but everything here was his set-up so he could only accept it. He was glad that he had Souta on his back.

"I\'ll get it!"

Alexander pushed both of his hands forward. Lightning crackled around the pillar before it flowed through his body, trying to paralyze him.

"Argh! I\'m glad that I enhanced my body to the limit before opening this realm!!"

He gritted his teeth as he felt pain all over his body.

Meanwhile, Souta was fighting the group of sandworms. He was playing with them as he slowly ripped the weaker ones into tiny pieces of meat. The blood of the sandworms splattered around, dyeing the sand in red.

"Hahaha!! Come here!!"

Souta laughed madly before he pounced at the nearest sandworms. He raised his hand and a huge amount of best feram gathered around it.

"DIE!!!"

He was about to smash the third stage sandworm when the fourth stage sandworm blocked his attack. Its huge body collided with his fist and it pushed him dozens of meters away.

Bang!!

Souta paused as he felt the intensity in the air. Somehow, the fourth stage sandworm along with the remaining third stage sandworms used their release form. Their body undergoes a transformation. The fourth stage sandworm grew larger shadowing Souta and Alexander\'s figure. Jet-black tattoos covered its body as it body extended up to two hundred meters long.

The fluctuations of energy made the air tremble. It was as if everything going to collapse. The entire area was filled with a huge amount of best feram.

But Souta didn\'t falter at all. It even made the smile on his face grow wider.

"Hahahaha!! Come at me!!"

Souta also released his energy. The monster orb and [Nebula Heart] pumped a massive amount of best feram throughout his body. Several skills were activated as he used his Second Mode.

Black mist seeped out of his body as layers of dark aura covered him like a cloak. A powerful gravitational field assaulted the whole area and it restricted the movements of the third stage sandworms.

"Hehehe!! Die!!"

Souta laughed madly as he swung his hand. Several strings of web flew out trying to capture all the monsters.

ROAR!!

The fourth stage sandworm released a powerful roar. It quickly charged a [Bestrou] and fired it instantly. The sand shot up in the air as the beam disintegrated the webs. It continued to push forward until it got close to Souta\'s face.

Boom!!

Smoke and dust filled the area. The fourth stage sandworm knew that Souta was still alive because of the black most in the atmosphere and the heavy gravity that was pressuring its movements.

The dust slowly dissipated revealing a sphere of blood. The blood moved to show Souta\'s figure inside it. Souta still had that smile on his face.

"You know what? I already fought what would people called one of the strongest fourth stage. After fighting you, a sandworm, I\'m finally sure that their fame isn\'t for nothing." Souta opened his palm and a scythe made of blood formed.

He reached out and grabbed it as he stared at the fourth stage sandworm. "I\'m sure that there are only three monsters that could keep up with me and you didn\'t belong to it. Against a fourth stage nobody like you, I don\'t need to use my release form."
