Chapter 268: Young Taoist Li Xiaolang (Second Update)
While the Rain Card and Tree Card may not have strong offensive capabilities, they possess remarkable auxiliary powers.
Individually, they might not seem impressive, but when combined, they have the magical ability to accelerate plant growth.
In other words, if Jerry can figure out the magical principles of the Rain Card and Tree Card, he can combine them to grow various trees in his box space without the hassle of transplanting them from the outside.
He would only need to scatter seeds on the ground and use the powers of rain and trees to accelerate their growth, allowing them to transform from seeds into towering trees in just a few seconds.
Moreover, not only ordinary trees but also rare herbs for potion-making can be grown this way if he can obtain their seeds.
It's important to note that the herbs used in potion-making are not all magical plants; they are simply rare.
With an endless supply of rare herbs, he can practice potion-making without worrying about the cost and quickly become a potion master.
This is one of the reasons he chose to prioritize researching the Tree Card and Rain Card.
After handing the Tree Card and Rain Card back to Jerry, Sakura saw the house, which had been completely refreshed by magic, and happily went to call Tomoyo.
Just as she hung up the phone, her father called back, asking her to deliver some forgotten blue documents to the bus stop, so she decided to leave immediately and then find Tomoyo after delivering the documents.
"By the way, Sakura, this is for you. It contains some household magic spells. You can learn them when you have time; it will make things much easier for you in the future!"
Before leaving, Jerry left a book about household magic for Sakura.
Unlike Aisha, Sakura inherited a significant portion of Clow Reed's powerful magic power, so as long as she follows the instructions in the book, she should be able to master household magic in no time.
As for the book being in English, there's no need to worry about Sakura not understanding it.
This isn't a problem. Despite Kero's current Osaka accent in Japanese, it used to live with Clow Reed in England.
So, language is not an issue.
Since forming an alliance with Sakura, Jerry hasn't gone to school.
For him, attending school is just a waste of time, especially since his time is quite tight.
He needs to maintain his Meditation Technique to increase his magic power, find time to study biology and some university textbooks, and focus on researching the Clow Cards created by Clow Reed.
So, unless Sakura uses the Magic Mirror to help capture the Clow Cards, he generally stays in the box space.
Time flew by, and it had been almost two months since Jerry arrived in this world.
The box space had undergone new changes.
The most noticeable change was the increase in the number of plants within the box space.
While the box space had previously been populated with many transplanted trees, it still looked somewhat artificial and lacked a natural feel.
Most of the transplanted plants were trees, with very few flowers or grasses.
But now, things were different. With Jerry's mastery of the Tree Card and Rain Card, he could grow a large number of plants from seeds, and the entire box space was now lush and green.
Various kinds of flowers, trees, and bees and butterflies filled the area, making it look vibrant and full of life.
The herb field beside the mini mansion had expanded more than tenfold, so Jerry made sure to set aside time each day to practice making potions.
The box in the potion room was now filled with various potions of different functions that he had concocted.
During this time, Sakura collected the "Jump" card, which allowed her to leap, and the "Illusion" card, which could create hallucinations.
Neither of these cards was particularly powerful, and Jerry didn't take long to study them thoroughly.
However, while researching the Clow Cards, he discovered a problem.
The creation of the Clow Cards involved not only a vast amount of magic knowledge but also incorporated many concepts from Chinese Taoist practices.
Even the Clow Cards themselves featured Chinese characters and special Taoist runes.
What made Jerry somewhat embarrassed was that, as a native Chinese person, at least in terms of his soul, he was almost completely ignorant of the Taoist aspects of the Clow Cards.
This lack of knowledge hindered his research on the four elemental cards, "Wind" and "Water", which were heavily influenced by Chinese Five Elements theory in addition to magical elements.
Despite this, he made significant breakthroughs in the application of wind and water magic.
He could now easily summon wind and rain, abilities that were once legendary.
"Ahhh, Big Brother Jerry, I need your help!"
At night, while Jerry was meditating on Merlin's Ring, he suddenly sensed a magic power fluctuation from the Magic Mirror. Opening it, he saw Sakura sending a distress signal.
"Is it the Thunder Card?"
Seeing Sakura using the "Jump" card to dodge the lightning attacks, Jerry guessed that the extremely powerful Thunder Card had appeared.
Although Jerry had promised to help Sakura capture the Clow Cards, she usually only sought his help in emergencies.
Cards like the "Jump" and "Illusion" cards, which had little to no offensive power, she had captured on her own.
"Hang in there, I'm on my way!"
Jerry left the Box Space, put away the box, and used a Phantom Shift to appear beside Sakura through the Magic Mirror.
"Armor of Iron!"
Extending his hand, Jerry cast the Iron Armor Spell to block the Thunder Card's attacks. He turned to look at the panting Sakura.
"Are you hurt?"
"No, but its attacks are too fast. I can't seal it!"
After recovering, Sakura aimed her Bird-headed Wand at the Thunder Card.
"We need to force it into its original form to seal it!"
At that moment, Kero, perched on Sakura's shoulder, reminded her.
"That's easy, Particle Cannon!"
Using his left hand to maintain the Iron Armor Spell, Jerry slowly began to form a Particle Cannon in his right hand. When it was about the size of a human head, he threw it at the lightning that was relentlessly attacking him.
"Boom!"
With a loud explosion, the lightning was forced back into its card spirit form, transforming into a lightning creature.
Just then, a young Taoist priest wearing a Taoist robe and carrying a Sword of Dao, holding a compass, leaped over from a distance.
"Finally, I found you, Clow Card!"
"Li classmate?"
Seeing the young Taoist priest, Sakura was visibly surprised.
This young Taoist priest was none other than Li Xiaolang, who had just transferred from Hong Kong that day.
