Lex led his fox beasts on a long route towards where he had sensed that the rock worms tribe was and it took him a week to reach it with his fox beasts.
Along the way, Lex's fox beasts had hunted thousands of beasts and any beast they came across was killed and devoured by them hungrily.
Most of the beasts they came across were peak Earth Mortal beasts and many were Sky Mortal Beasts, and the closer they were to the central area of the Underground Coves, the more powerful the beasts were becoming.
Lex had sent out a single clone that he poured as much energy into it as he could and instructed it to use the Land Elemental Energy Transformation to stealthy scout the Underground Coves from beneath the ground.
The clone returned almost a day later and had scouted most of the Underground Coves before being scared away by a powerful beast in the centre of the Underground Coves that almost sensed him.
After reabsorbing his clone, gaining its memories and experiences, Lex had a brief image of the layout of the Underground Coves and the beast tribes that he had to be wary of.
There were 3 main beast tribes that governed and had power over large areas in the Inner Underground Coves.
The rock worm tribe, the armadillo tribe and the boa tribe.
They were all similarly powerful and had a single powerful leader that was incredibly powerful and on par or even stronger than the ice leopard.
While they had control of most of the inner areas of the Underground Coves, that were more useful to them than the outer areas, only one beast tribe controlled the central area of the Underground Coves.
Replaying his clones memories, as Lex saw the beast tribe that controlled the centre of the Underground Coves, he began reminiscing about his past reality and had a nostalgic feeling.
[It seems that the biggest foe in the Underground Coves are the ant beasts that are not only the beast tribe with the most numbers, but are also the strongest and the most intelligent. Even with the strength, I have now, I won't be able to defeat the ant beast queen without using my trump cards] stated Lex to himself with a reminiscent expression, as he replayed the clone's memories.
Looking at his fox beast tribe, most of the fox beasts had managed to progress rapidly and enter the Sky Mortal Rank and all the Unit Leaders were reaching the peak of the Sky Mortal Rank.
"We are a small army. But we are powerful and will not lose to any other beast" declared Lex encouragingly as his fox beasts began to howl in unison.
"Without waiting any longer, we will storm into the rock worm beast tribe and massacre them all. Then we will feed off them all and take over their territory to strengthen ourselves and avenge our fallen. And we won't stop there, we will kill every single beast in these Underground Coves and take it as our own" announced Lex.
As the Unit Leaders were preparing their units for battle, Lex sat on the ground and began streaming large amounts of Land Elemental Energy into his body, in preparation for activating the Land Elemental Energy Transformation.
It took him a few minutes to enter the Land Elemental Energy Transformation and sustaining it was using large amounts of energy and focus, but with the dense Land Elemental Energy, Lex wasn't worried about depleting his energy.
"Attack" bellowed Lex as he formed a large boulder using Geokinesis and launched it with great force at the edge of the rock worm territory, revealing the base of their tribe.
It was quite civilised and they seemed to have basic intelligence, but Lex felt no remorse in the slightest and was inversely enjoying killing them after they killed a few dozen of his fox beasts.
Lex was understanding the uses of the Elemental Energy Transformations, and realised it was very similar to how the Lightning Manipulation Eye was.
It was a way for Lex to wield the element without having the specific Elemental Eye Power, but with the Eye Power, Lex knew that his power to wield the elements would be amplified massively.
Sliding over the land beneath his feet, that softened and carried him, Lex used his Land Elemental Energy Transformation to slide over the ground in a similar way to how he had seen Angela slide over the ice she would form bellow her feet.
Leading his fox beast army, Lex was suddenly bitten by a rock worm that was multiple times his size, and the fox beasts were all worried for their master, after seeing the sudden attack.
However, they were shocked when they saw the rock worm beast's teeth shattering as it attempted to pierce Lex's skin that was hardened by not only his Elemental Body, but also his Land Elemental Energy Transformation.
"He, you can't even cut past my skin, there is no need for me to use my armour against these weak beasts" scoffed Lex as he launched a swift and powerful fist that shattered the body of the beast.
Lex's body had reached the peak of the Heaven Mortal Rank both internally and externally and had many skills and abilities that allowed him to amplify his power past that.
Seeing the strength that their leader displayed, the fox beasts were all reinvigorated as they charged into the rock worm beasts territory in their groups and began defeating and eating the rock worm beasts.
"Unit Leaders I will leave the safety of the fox beasts in your hands. Eat away at their territory and strengthen yourselves, while I go and kill their leader" ordered Lex who received a nod from the 5 fox beasts as he dashed towards the centre of the rock worm tribe.
It was much larger than he thought, and along the way, any beast he came across would be easily killed by him without expending much energy at all.
[I have 10 minutes at most left in this form, even though I haven't used much of it, and I should defeat the beasts before I am forced to release this form] stated Lex to himself as he crushed the heads of two rock worm beasts with his bare fists.
With the faint brown energy around how body, Lex waltzed into the central area of the rock worm tribe and began massacring the beasts.
