But, as Lord Darkar discovers, he doesn't only need the codex and the chaos emeralds. He needs the shadow fire and the dragon flame, which Bloom has.

Throughout the season, the Winx, Specialists, Sonic and the others attempt to stop the Trix and Dr. Eggman from stealing each piece of the Codex and Chaos Emeralds. Though they fail, one was in Pixie Village, another was in Red Fountain, the third was in Cloud Tower, and the final one was in Alfea, which Bloom stole while under a dark spell.
