Eroge: I can Travel To The Ancient World-Chapter 219: Getting Crushed Under Mountains

[Ding! The Monthly Dimensional Travel Limit is near! Host has only one chance to travel within the next 30 days]

' What? There is a traveling limit?'

Jia Hao was stunned when he saw that. Counting in his head, he almost traveled nine times in a single month.

' So, I can travel ten times in a month? That sounds…Hmm, Not bad.' Jia Hao thought inwardly.

' But right now, I can't leave. Only after the monster tide problem is solved, I can go back to the Azure Sea Star.' Jia Hao mumbled.

Picking up the Purification Talisman, Jia Hao looked at the intricate design of the talisman.

[ Purification Talisman: A low grade consumable magical treasure. It burst with radiance and righteous energy, dealing damage to small wandering evil spirits]

' Well, I have seen the entire process of the talisman crafting a few times. I wonder if I can copy that?'

Jia Hao took a deep breath as he picked up the brush. His Sage's Divine Eyes flashed as he pressed the tip of the brush on the paper.

' Drawing a rune is like writing the special language of heaven and earth. It's the same as calligraphy, connecting the words with nature's laws.'

' To think, There is the righteous golden mantra in the Golden Arhat Vajra Body Art. Chanting it will make the surrounding evil aura dissipate.'

' What if I chant the mantra while crafting the talisman?'

His Sage's Divine Eyes were like a perfect recorder. With complete mastery of his body, Jia Hao replicated the movement made by Cai Yixue as she drew the talisman.

His hands moved gracefully as Jia Hao poured his spiritual qi inside the brush, drawing the rune characters while imbuing his spiritual qi.

Jia Hao's lips trembled as he chanted the righteous golden mantra. He felt his internal energy was rotating in his body, creating a faint golden aura around him.

With his eyes, Jia Hao could see the golden particles slowly covering his brush as he drew the Purification Talisman.

' Damn, my calligraphy skill really comes in handy. I should thank that Lei guy.' Jia Hao smiled as he made some bold strokes on the paper.

Not long after, he finished crafting the Purification Talisman. The characters looked more captivating than Cai Yixue's talisman. Not to mention, Jia Hao could see a faint golden aura around it.

[ Buddhist Purification Talisman: A purification talisman imbued with buddhist energy. Its effectiveness has been enhanced, turning it into a mid grade magical treasure]

' Ugh, But it cost a third of my spiritual qi and a fifth of my internal energy.' Jia Hao sighed. ' Not wonder, Crafting talisman is a tedious task.'

' However, since the effectiveness has increased, I should make a few more.'

Jia Hao felt a tinge of disappointment when he realized that his energy wouldn't be replenished with the energy drink or chocolate. After all, enchanted items can be used by anyone other than himself.

' Tch, I have to upgrade the Pot of Miracles to the third level as soon as possible. But reaching the second layer is already so damn difficult.'

Taking a deep breath, Jia Hao returned making more talismans. But to his surprise, the next talisman was turned into a failed product.

" Whoa, I just made a slight mistake though?" Jia Hao couldn't help but click his tongue.

' Even with my abilities, I can't take perfect talismans every time, eh? I guess it's just a matter of practice.'

Without getting disappointed, Jia Hao made another talisman. And thankfully, the next talisman remained perfect.

Later in the evening, Chef Liang came to prepare a dinner for the Cai Family. Li Rou couldn't help but praise Jia Hao.

" Dear, What was that miraculous liquid? I never felt such lightness in my hair before."

" Ehh? Now you say…You do smell well." Cai Yunhai couldn't help but mumble.

" Hmph, So you finally noticed?" Li Rou glared at him, making Cai Yunhai fumble.

" I mean, I was in the training ground all day. How could I notice?"

" Mother in law, it's our new product, called hair shampoo." Jia Hao smiled.

" You liked it, yes? We are thinking of commercializing it."

" Is it not rare?" Li Rou was stunned. " You want to mass produce it?"

" It is rare…For others. For us, we can make as much as we want." Jia Hao grinned. " And I believe, women from normal households to the nobility, everyone would love it. After all, Who wouldn't like lush and light hair?"

" Haha! True! That's indeed true." Li Rou laughed. " However, Keep the best one for us, alright? You can sell the low grade ones to others."

" Don't worry, Mother in law." Jia Hao winked. " Of course, I will save the best things for you and Yixue."

" Hmm, As you have said, we have already started to train the foot soldiers." Cai Yunhai sighed. " I have to admit, I never expected the new chainmail and weapons to be so good."

" Well, It's good for now." Jia Hao replied. " However, in the end, they are still makeshift equipment. After the battle, we need to arm the Silver Lightning Cavalry."

" Now we have advanced forging techniques and the Millenium Yin Iron, we can easily do that."

Cai Yunhai nodded when he heard that. " You are right. After the battle, we shall do that."

" I already sent a troop to the Nanhai Mountain, where that heretic cultivator was hiding. According to their report, a few dark goblins appeared and blocked their path."

" Not to mention, they indeed saw a suspicious person bolting out from nowhere and escaping. However, strange enough, despite their efforts, they couldn't find the cave at all."

' Hmm, It's not strange. The cave was sealed by an illusion formation. Even Profound Awakening Realm cultivators can't see through it easily.' Jia Hao thought for a moment before nodding.

" As I said, Just let the men patrol around there. Sooner or later, that bastard will show himself."

Cai Yixue took a bite of the chicken as she closed her eyes, savoring the sauces lightly.

" I have already notified the Taoist temple to gather the ingredients. They shall stay ready."

Jia Hao nodded. " I have also talked with Pharmacist Mo. Each squad shall carry sealed bamboo bottles of energy drinks. And each Profound Awakening Realm fighter shall carry an Eneregy Recovery Chocolate."

" With them, their battle prowess shall increase."

" But, aren't those things expensive?" Cai Yunhai frowned. " Providing those to so many soldiers, the cost would surpass a million taels of gold."

" Hehe, Father in law, Didn't you say?" Jia Hao smiled. " If we can, we should lessen the casualty in the war?"

" Besides, a million taels of gold is nothing before the future of the Cai Family."

" Haah…You truly care about us so much." Li Rou sighed. " I am really glad that we got a son in law like you."

" You are flattering me, Mother in Law." Jia Hao shook his head.

" Now, Since that's the case, Why not bring some good alcohol? Cai Yunhai laughed loudly.

But no one said anything as the trio stared at him silently, making Cai Yunhai falter.

" Wh-Why are you giving me that stare?" Cai Yunhai defended himself.

" Before a battle, shouldn't we have a nice and impactful drink?"

" Father in law, If you wish, You can drink the the Spring Wine. But as for stronger wine, how about we drink that during the celebration of victory?"

" You bet." Cai Yunhai chuckled. " That sounds like a good plan. Alright, Let's do this."

" En, it's already late. You should go and take a rest." Li Rou looked at Cai Yixue and Jia Hao.

Both of them nodded as they got up, heading towards their bedroom.

" Young Lord, Young Miss, I have already prepared the bed." Minmin bowed before them.

" En, Minmin, Regarding the business of soap and shampoo, you can consult with Mother in law. She got both brain and connections for it."

" I understand, Young Lord." Minmin bowed. But then, she suddenly saw Jia Hao throwing a pouch at her.

" What's this?" Minmin caught it curiously. " When she opened it, she saw several gold bills of hundred taels of gold."

" This…So much money…" Minmin muttered. " Young Lord, You want me to purchase something for you?"

" No, That's your reward. Keep it with you." Jia Hao grinned, making Minmin stunned.

" Young Lord, It's too much! How am I going to spend all this money?" Minmin stammered.

" Well, That's a big issue, isn't it?" Jia Hao rolled his eyes. " A maid of such a prominent household doesn't know how to spend such a minuscule money?"

' Go and buy whatever you want."

" This…Thank you, Young Lord." Minmin bowed as she smiled. " I hope both of you have a sweet night."

" Haah?" Cai Yixue saw Minmin blinking at her, making her blush. " Hmph, You are gifting her? Where is my gift?"

" Ayo, My wife is finally asking me for a gift?" Jia Hao looked at Cai Yixue.

" I…I mean, I wonder if you have…um, something for me…" Cai Yixue fumbled as she looked away.

" Hmm, I gave you a painting and chocolate today. So, What else should I give?" Jia Hao muttered loudly.

" Oh wait, I have this…"

Jia Hao clasped his palm and opened it, like showing a magic trick. Suddenly, a jade hairpin appeared in his palm.

" How about this? Wife, are you happy?"

" This…This looks so…"

Minmin giggled when she saw Cai Yixue's tranced expression.

' Hehe, Looks like Young Lord is going to be crushed under mountains today as well.'
