The Clan Master Can't possibly Be A Mortal-Chapter 1057: The Grand Rooster, Ma Liang’s Brush Transforms
Shi Lei pointed to the island and said,
"This place contains natural Wood Elemental and Water Elemental Original Power. Only with them can Ma Liang’s Brush successfully transform."
Shen Yu, being an Array Master, immediately understood and said, "I understand! The integration of the Five Elements Power is necessary for Ma Liang’s Brush to attain Perfection and successfully advance to Sacred Arms."
Shi Lei nodded, "Right, that’s it."
"What are we waiting for then? Let’s go!" Han Yonghui waved his Longsword, eager to land on the island.
"Okay, let’s all go up."
Shi Lei led the way, and along with Shen Yu, Han Yonghui, and Zhang Tianyuan, they jumped ashore and began their search in the dense forest.
Splash!
Not long after, they heard a thunderous roar of water near their ears and quickly rose into the air to look towards the distant mountains.
There, stood a peak rising a thousand feet into the air.
Its upper half was overwhelmed with floodwaters cascading down and crashing into the pool at the mountain’s base, emitting thunderous sounds.
"The aura of Water Elemental Original Power!"
Shi Lei pointed at the waterfall, elated, and hurriedly took Shen Yu and the others, accelerating towards it.
Hundreds of miles away.
Beneath that massive waterfall.
Shi Lei saw an ice flower growing in the center of the pool and immediately said, "Yes, this is exactly the Water Elemental Original Power Crystal I need. Junior brothers, wait for me on the shore."
"Okay." Shen Yu and the others nodded.
The next moment.
Shi Lei waved Ma Liang’s Brush, creating a water dragon in mid-air that carried him across the surface towards the ice flower swiftly.
But just then, something unexpected happened.
Splash!
Waves surged around the ice flower, forming dozens of water dragons, all bursting with the powerful aura of Void Break Realm Level.
"Water dragons, subdue!"
Without any panic, Shi Lei swung Ma Liang’s Brush and the water dragon he was on immediately used the "Divine Dragon Swings Tail", smashing the obstructing water dragons into countless droplets.
"Great opportunity!"
Shi Lei reached out and plucked the ice flower from the water, feeling the immense Water Elemental Original Power surging in his palm, nearly impossible to hold onto.
"Subdue!"
He promptly grasped Ma Liang’s Brush with his other hand, inscribed the word "Subdue", and sealed the ice flower.
Thud, thud, thud!
Shi Lei stepped on the waves, returning to the shore.
"Done!"
He smiled broadly, touching the surface of the ice flower with Ma Liang’s Brush, causing it to disintegrate into a mass of pure Water Elemental Original Power, gradually merging into Ma Liang’s Brush, making its aura grow increasingly profound.
"Now for the Wood Elemental Original Power."
Shi Lei looked around, sensing the presence of Wood Elemental Original Power nearby, yet uncertain of its exact direction.
"Why don’t we split up now?"
Shi Lei turned to Shen Yu, Han Yonghui, Zhang Tianyuan, "This large island measures tens of thousands of miles in circumference, we can find the last Wood Elemental Original Power Crystal faster by splitting up."
"Okay."
Shen Yu and the others nodded and dispersed.
...
Half an hour later.
The four continued to scour the island but still without any findings.
The whole island was dense forest, filled with the rich Spiritual Power of the Wood Elemental, which obscured the aura of the Wood Elemental Original Power Crystal, complicating their search.
"What should we do?"
Shi Lei was flying a hundred meters above the ground, continuously scanning his surroundings. Even with Ma Liang’s Brush pressed to his forehead, he couldn’t sense the exact location of the Wood Elemental Original Power Crystal.
"Gobble, gobble, gobble!"
Just then, a rooster’s crow sounded.
Shi Lei paused, instinctively following the sound with his eyes.
He saw a fiery red rooster tearing through the dense forest, a string of Thought Pearls around its neck.
The Thought Pearls were almost entirely gold.
Only one of them was green!
"Found it!"
Shi Lei burst into laughter.
No wonder the aura of the Wood Elemental Origin Force Crystal was erratic; it turned out to be carried by a bright red, Demon Emperor level rooster running wildly through the forest, causing its location to constantly change.
Whoosh!
Shi Lei quickly caught up with the fiery red rooster, blocking its path, lifted his head, and looked at the ten-meter-tall gigantic rooster with an inexplicable sense of oppression.
"Cluck cluck cluck!"
The big rooster saw Shi Lei and suddenly enlarged its eyes.
"Fellow Daoist, I would like to make a deal with you," Shi Lei said as he courteously bowed toward the bright red rooster.
"Cluck cluck cluck!"
But the rooster lacked high intelligence and treated Shi Lei as a mere insect, promptly opening its mouth and pecking towards him.
"Wind Spirit Step!"
Shi Lei lightly tapped the ground with his toes, retreating thirty feet easily dodging the big rooster’s attack, "So it’s an Ancient Beast that hasn’t awakened its intelligence yet, no wonder it can’t understand human speech."
Since the opponent wasn’t highly intelligent, Shi Lei saw no need for courtesy, using Ma Liang’s Brush to draw a sharp longsword in mid-air.
"Ten Thousand Swords Array, rise!"
Shi Lei gave a strong push.
Clang!
The sword vibrated rapidly, splitting from one into two, two into four, four into eight... and in a moment, it turned into tens of thousands of sharp swords, each twinkling with countless fierce sword lights.
"Cluck cluck cluck!"
The big rooster was immediately scared stiff, its eyes bulging, and it quickly knelt down, pecking its head on the ground non-stop as if begging for mercy.
"Oh my God!"
"The Demon Emperor level big rooster is actually submitting!"
"No wonder he’s the eldest senior brother, with an aura of dominance!"
At this moment, Shen Yu, Han Yonghui, and Zhang Tianyuan arrived quickly from different places upon hearing the commotion and happened to witness this scene, exclaiming in astonishment.
"Do you wish to submit to me?"
Shi Lei asked the big rooster, equally surprised.
He had thought that this Demon Emperor level rooster was indomitable, yet his myriad of swords had caused it to become submissive.
"Open your heart and soul for Spirit branding!"
Naturally, Shi Lei wouldn’t miss the opportunity to take this Demon Emperor level creature as his mount; he hastily spoke up, but the rooster, not understanding at all, continued to knock its head against the ground, creating a large pit.
"Big senior brother, I think it might be stupid."
"Yeah!"
"I believe it can’t understand human language."
Shen Yu, Han Yonghui, and Zhang Tianyuan remarked one after another.
Shi Lei nodded, acknowledging it was indeed the case, and then used Divine Sense to communicate with the big rooster, finally achieving a smooth conversation.
A moment later.
The big rooster lowered its head, aiming its brow at Shi Lei, allowing him to open the Sea of Consciousness within its head and leave a Divine Soul brand.
Thus, the recognition of the master was complete.
"Where did you get this from?" Shi Lei pointed at the string of Thought Pearls around the big rooster’s neck.
"Cluck cluck cluck!"
The big rooster squawked twice and used its wing to point at a stretch of deep mountain forest in the distance, indicating it had found it there.
"Shall we go check it out?" Shen Yu suggested.
"No rush, let me absorb the Wood Elemental Origin Force Crystal first to avoid any complications." Shi Lei shook his head.
He tapped the Wood Elemental Origin Force Crystal with Ma Liang’s Brush, causing it to shatter into a green stream and flow into the pen.
Buzz!
With the Five Elements Origin Power assembled, Ma Liang’s Brush trembled gently, its surface flickering with five-colored light, unexpectedly drawing in the spiritual energy of the entire Ocean Star, furiously surging toward this spot.
Before long.
A massive five-colored vortex formed in the sky, the overwhelming spiritual energy pouring down like a funnel into Ma Liang’s Brush, heating it up as it underwent a transformation.
"Is it about to upgrade to Sacred Arms?"
Everyone looked on with anticipation.
