In fact, anyone wielding an element with the same power output as Lady Evergreen wouldn't have been easy to trap like that.
Someone wielding even the element of water would be able to cut off the vines and plant roots with blades made of water. But the gem kings only had their hands, so it was easy to bind and drag them.
The gem kings were still resisting the thick vines and roots with all of their power. Their resistance caused the ground to quake for miles. Cracks spread from the place where they were buried into their surroundings.
Many vines and tree trunks snapped as they kicked and punched. They were like great giant beasts trapped underground. Even the ground didn't want to keep them. So if Lady Evergreen dared to relax a little bit, the four of them would jump out and become free.
