Earth Monsters

History[]

The Whispering Wood[]

After the Source Dragons of Focus, Life, and Strength left the Council of Sources, the disruption caused at the Sanctuary of the Seven Sources led to a mix of Source Energy with the earth, resulting in the creation of asphalt. The asphalt gave rise to an Earth Monster, which was soon accompanied by an Acid Monster. Together, they attacked the Source Dragon acolytes as the Chief Loyalist watched.

After Lloyd, Arin, and Euphrasia followed the whispers, they saw the Earth and Acid Monsters attacking some Treewoks. Lloyd tried to attack the Earth Monster, only for it to dodge and trap him in asphalt, causing the Green Ninja to realize that these monsters are made out of Elemental Powers. After Lloyd got rid of the asphalt, he tried to attack again, only for the Earth Monster to shoot asphalt at him once more and stick him to a tree. However, thanks to a power boost from the Life Source energy in the trees, Lloyd got his powers back alongside Euphrasia, defeating both the Earth Monster and Acid Monster and reverting them to their energy forms.
