Eroge: I can Travel To The Ancient World

Chapter 225: Boss Raid

Looking around, he found a small pouch from that person's waist.

' Fifty thousand taels worth of gold bills, and some other materials, eh?'

[ Lethargic Curse Potion: Throwing it at the enemy, the gas can make the opponent nauseous and slow down]

[ Spirit Wand: A low grade magical treasure, made from roots of Twisted Dark Willow tree. A low grade wand with a medium grade energy stone embedded in it. It increases the accuracy and proficiency of spells]

[ Archaic Spell Casting Manual Vol 1: A manual of a distant world, filled with concepts of spell casting and spiritual arts different than Yunlan Continent]

[ Explosive Bones: Magically enchanted bones. Throwing it at the enemy, it explodes, creating a sharp bone wall around them]

' Hehe, This is some fine good.' Jia Hao nodded with satisfaction. Especially holding the wand, he felt like he was some real wizard.

' You are a wizard, Jia Hao. Hehehe.' Looking at the corpse, he checked the final thing.

[ Host received skill cards! You can only pick one out of three]

[ Soul Gathering Arts (Medium)]

[ Mana Shield (Low)]

[ Ghost Flame Balls (Low)]

' Tsk, Stingy pot. Can't you let me pick two out of three?' Jia Hao muttered under his breath as he pondered.

' Since I have the spell casting book, I can still learn some spells on my own, yes? They are not enchanted by the Pot of Miracles, so I believe I can learn well on my own.'

' Meanwhile, the Soul Gathering Arts's proficiency is good. And looks like a soul type technique. I should go with this one.'

As Jia Hao clicked on the Soul Gathering Art, a rush of information stormed into his head. With new information, Jia Hao took a deep breath to adjust his thoughts.

' Damn, as I expected. It's a technique which can slowly strengthen control over my spiritual energy.'

' But…This is the lowest level of technique.' Jia Hao's expression turned odd. ' Damn, Did I get scammed? Why did this guy grind the lowest level of technique?'

'Never mind, Something is better than nothing. I shall see if I can use it with my Six Desires Myriad Thoughts Arts.'

What Jia Hao didn't know was that soul cultivation techniques can be considered as rarity. The sects and families that practicisses spiritual techniques keep their cultivation method strictly guarded.

Unless one joins them and has enough contributions, putting their hands on such a technique would be very hard.

Therefore, a vagabond spiritual artist can only rely on publicly available techniques, which can be considered basic and inefficient.

Taking a deep breath, Jia Hao clenched his saber and waited outside for a while. He wanted to check if there were any subordinates of the man still inside the cave.

After all, if that man didn't return, his friend would come out to look for him. But since no one came, Jia Hao assumed that there was no one in the cave.

As Jia Hao stepped inside, the illusion array vanished as a new view came before him. The cave was spacious with torches lighting the way.

However, amazingly, the torches gave off no smell or smoke. They burned clean and bright.

As Jia Hao reached the center of the cave, his eyes narrowed. He could see the dried corpses scattered around. All of them were dried, with no smell of blood or rotting flesh.

All of them were neatly arranged as a circle, with blood red lines connecting them like circuits. It looked like a magical diagram created for evil rituals, with an altar at the center of the diagram.

He could see a mass of flesh and blood writhing crazily as it hovered on the altar. There were many cuts, looking like closed eyes.

Jia Hao felt nauseous as he looked at it. However, he still used the Sage's Divine Eyes on it.

[ Corrupt Blood Spawn: An almost completely fed demonic spawn that has eaten the flesh, blood, spirit, and vitality of a hundred people. Currently, in a sealed state. Once awaken, it creates havoc. Better kill it before it fully grows]

' Well, Fuck. I knew it.'

Jia Hao's eyes turned serious when he looked at the information. Holding his saber tightly, As he was about to attack it, the writhing flesh suddenly bloated and exploded.

" Huh??!!"

Alarmed by the sudden changes, Jia Hao hurriedly retreated. Without any hesitation, he threw all the remaining Purification Talismans on the flesh.

*SHIINGGGG!*

The talismans glowed with soft buddhist light as they stuck to the flesh. A strange cry erupted from it as the blood red magic circle around the mass of flesh shone with a bright light.

Suddenly, flesh and blood swirled as it condensed into a monster seven feet tall. Bloody tentacles moved around as many eyes appeared all over its body.

However, Jia Hao could see some of the eyes were damaged, and the bloody monster looked rather unstable.

[ Unstable Blood Spawn: Unsealed with an improper method and interrupted by holy energy, it's in rather unstable state]

[ Strength: Spiritual attack and regeneration]

[Weakness: Destroy the core and chop it into pieces]

*KREEEEEEE*

Jia Hao clenched his teeth as the monster let out a strange cry. The talismans around it shattered instantly, making Jia Hao back away.

The scream was like a flood of malice, trying to corrupt Jia Hao's thoughts and soul. However, at that moment, Jia Hao activated Six Desires Myriad Thought Arts.

Suddenly, the malice and pain of his soul vanished. It felt like a giant wall stood before the screech of the monster's screech, protecting Jia Hao's psyche.

" Damned monster! Die!"

Jia Hao roared as he used the Crimson Frenzy Blade Art. His saber was covered with fiery sparks as he slashed out at the monster.

The monster sensed the danger as blood flowed like a living liquid around it, creating a crimson shield. However, Jia Hao's momentum was enough to cleave it apart.

" Crimson Frenzy Bladeworks!

His saber moved with a fiery frenzy as he slashed three tentacles at once. However, instead of falling down, the tentacles turned into liquid, floating around the monster's body.

Suddenly, Jia Hao felt a chill as he saw the tentacles breaking into small pieces. Each piece turned to a sharp bloody pike as they shot towards Jia Hao like a swarm.

" Damn it!."

Using his Golden Arhat Vajra Body Arts, he strengthened his body before using the saber to defend.

The cave was narrow and there was not much place to dodge. So, Jia Hao could only brace himself and take the attack head on.

*SHWISH! SWISH! SWISH!*

Like rain drops, the pikes shot towards Jia Hao, covering his line of sight. Swinging his saber, Jia Hao cleared the pikes which aimed at his vitals.

The rest still grazed against his body. But thankfully, The Silver Feather Armor and his physical body resisted most impact.

But still, Jia Hao felt the impact, making his face wince.

' Fuck, This monster feels like…A peak stage Profound Awakening Realm master.'

' And that damned regeneration. I need to finish this fast.'

Taking a deep breath, Jia Hao used his elemental affinity of Gold. Suddenly, his internal energy churned as a golden sheen appeared on his saber.

As Jia Hao slashed out, he felt his attacks have become lighter, yet sharper and precise. With the Crimson Frenzy Blade Arts, he crazily slashed at the monster, turning it into bits.

Despite that, Jia Hao kept searching for its core. But he was annoyed as the core kept changing place in it's viscous body.

Suddenly, Jia Hao felt danger from his back. But it was too late.

*CRACCKK!*

A tentacle turned into a spear and stabbed from his back. The armor finally got pierced as he felt the stab.

However, gritting his teeth, Jia Hao also gave a powerful slash. His intense yang energy vaporized a large part of that monster.

Both of them retreated as they looked at each other warily. Jia Hao felt terrible pain from his wound as if someone gnawing his bones.

But at that moment, the monster suddenly started to swallow all the corpses around it.

' Fuck! I won't let it enter the second phase.' Jia Hao clenched his fist as his mind raced.

No matter what, unless an Innate Realm master takes action, or Jia Hao uses a higher version of the Evil Exorcizing Talisman, defeating the monster would be impossible.

' Do I need to do this? Damn it. I worked so hard.'

However, Jia Hao finally thought of a method as he sighed.

Clasping his palms, his eyes shone with a deep glint.

" With all my heavenly virtue, I summon…"
