The pain went on until he fell unconscious at the bottom of the tree.
After an unknown period of time,Ethan woke up, his clothes were all dirty now, even his hair was dirty.
He didn't know how much time had passed. He slowly stood up and tried to observe his situation. Just as he was about to look closer, his mind entered his sea of consciousness. It was the same as when he first awakened his aptitude.
Then he saw a fire elemental sign produced in the thin air and merged with his forehead, then water, earth, wind and metal. All the elemental signs one by one merged with him.
Ethan became confused. What was going on here? Was he dreaming? He had already awakened before, how could he awaken again?
Ethan didn't have the slightest idea what type of treasure he had just consumed.
Those were called "Elemental Fruits," born once every 100 million years.
