I became the Open Source Saint Ancestor in the Cultivation World

Five days passed quietly, and Ma Ke, who had not felt any change, felt a little gloomy. Was the "Open Source Limitless Skill" a lie, or was Liu Ruoxi's comprehension simply not good enough to understand it?

Inside the cave, Liu Ruoxi was drenched in sweat. She made a hand seal and absorbed the surrounding spiritual energy, which slowly flowed into her body.

As these mixed spiritual energies flowed from the lower dantian, through the Du and Ren meridians, and back to the lower dantian, they finally completed a small cycle and transformed into pure true energy.

"It's done!" Liu Ruoxi exclaimed with joy.

So she couldn't wait to mobilize more spiritual energy from heaven and earth, frantically drawing it into her body to continue the microcosmic orbit of the "Open Source Limitless Skill," and the smile on her face grew even brighter.

This technique is several times faster to cultivate than the one I practice, and the resulting true energy is much purer.

You should know that this is only the small circulation of energy. If you could comprehend the cultivation method of the large circulation, wouldn't it be much faster?

This is definitely a top-tier cultivation technique, and also a tremendous opportunity for me.

At the same time, Ma Ke's eyes lit up inside the stone house. He sensed that the "Open Source Limitless Skill" in his mind had automatically generated a page, in the center of which sat an almost transparent woman. Judging from her outline, it was Liu Ruoxi.

A point of light slowly rises from the lower dantian, passes through the Du and Ren meridians, and returns to the lower dantian, completing a cycle.

"So that's how you cultivate." Ma Ke instantly grasped the trick. Although he couldn't fully understand it yet, it didn't stop him from trying to imitate it.

So he began to imitate Liu Ruoxi's cultivation method, bit by bit, according to what he had in mind.

About half an hour later, as the spiritual energy of heaven and earth returned to the lower dantian and transformed into pure true qi, I instantly felt my body become much fuller, and the first level of Qi Refining, which had remained unchanged for ten years, seemed to loosen up.

He dared not waste any time and quickly threw himself into cultivation. As he became more skilled, he circulated his microcosmic orbit faster and faster.

Several hours later, he slowly opened his eyes and broke through, finally entering the second level of Qi Refining.

Suppressing his initial joy, he diligently resumed his cultivation, watching his cultivation level rise at an almost visible speed, completely forgetting the tedium and fatigue.

Liu Ruoxi here is the same; she has never enjoyed cultivation as much as she does now.

Before she knew it, nine days had passed in the blink of an eye. Suddenly, she opened her eyes and laughed loudly, "I've finally broken through to the seventh level of Qi Refining!"

The sixth to seventh level is a threshold, signifying the transition from the mid-stage of Qi Refining to the late-stage. Only by reaching the late-stage of Qi Refining can one be qualified to join one of the seven peaks of the sect for cultivation, and also gain more resources and privileges.

Therefore, although it may seem like she only broke through one level, it was actually a significant leap for Liu Ruoxi, and all of this was brought about by the "Open Source Limitless Skill".

"I never expected that good-for-nothing could bring me such a big surprise. I really have to thank him properly." Liu Ruoxi's smile grew even wider.

……

"Junior Brother Ma, Junior Brother Ma..." Sun Tai called out with a smile as he knocked on the door outside the stone house.

A moment later, with a creak, Ma Ke opened the wooden door. By this time, he had already reached the third level of Qi Refining.

"Steward Sun, is there anything you require?"

Sun Tai waved his hands repeatedly and said, "Oh dear, how could I dare to give orders to my junior brother? I'll have to rely on you for guidance in the future. It's Senior Sister Liu who summoned me."

Ma Ke was prepared, so he said, "In that case, I'll have to trouble you, Steward Sun."

"Oh, no, no, please, junior brother." Sun Tai was very polite, seemingly convinced that Ma Ke had already hooked up with Liu Ruoxi.

Then, led by Sun Tai, the two arrived at Liu Ruoxi's cave again.

"Junior Brother Ma, you can come in now," Liu Ruoxi's voice drifted out from inside.

"Yes." The two responded, Sun Tai quickly stepped back, while Ma Ke walked in through the door opened by the formation.

While Ma Ke was paying his respects, Liu Ruoxi carefully examined him, even specifically checking his cultivation level.

Upon discovering that Ma Ke's cultivation level had not changed at all, he couldn't help but sneer in his heart: "As expected of a piece of trash. He has such a good cultivation technique, yet he's still only at the first level of Qi Refining."

However, she also knew the reason. She herself had spent a lot of effort to comprehend the operation of the Small Heavenly Circuit, and with Ma Ke's useless comprehension, he definitely wouldn't be able to understand it.

Little did they know, while Ma Ke's comprehension was indeed poor, he unfortunately possessed the original text of the "Open Source Limitless Skill." As long as Liu Ruoxi comprehended it, Ma Ke would naturally follow suit.

I just wonder what she'll think when she hears this news.

As for the fact that Ma Ke was still at the first level of Qi Refining in her eyes, it was because Ma Ke had concealed his cultivation level through the "Open Source Limitless Technique," which she could not see.

"I've been studying this technique diligently lately, but I don't know if you missed something when you copied it, or if the technique itself has some flaws, because I haven't made any progress yet."

"However, I can assure you that this is indeed a good technique. In that case, I will certainly not treat you unfairly."

Ma Ke sneered inwardly. If he hadn't followed you in cultivation, he would have actually believed your nonsense.

As Liu Ruoxi spoke, she waved her hand, and a package appeared directly in front of Ma Ke. She said, "Inside are one hundred spirit stones and one Qi Gathering Pill. If you cultivate diligently and can break through to the second level of Qi Refining as soon as possible, even if I can't directly let you enter the inner sect, it shouldn't be difficult to find you a position as an outer sect steward."

"Thank you very much, Senior Sister Liu..." Ma Ke accepted the gift with great "flattery".

"Have you ever revealed the matter of the cultivation technique to anyone else?" Liu Ruoxi asked casually.

"Replying to Senior Sister, I have not revealed this to anyone."

"Alright, don't make a fuss for now, lest you cause yourself unnecessary trouble. After all, you're in the outer sect, and if anything happens, I can't help you much," Liu Ruoxi earnestly reminded her.

"Yes, I will follow your teachings, Senior Sister."

"You go ahead. If you have any questions about cultivation, you can ask me anytime," Liu Ruoxi said, waving her hand.

"Yes, thank you, Senior Sister." Ma Ke was extremely excited.

Seeing Ma Ke return with a rather large package from Senior Sister Liu, a hint of greed flashed in Sun Tai's eyes, but he quickly suppressed it with reason.

Back in the stone house, Ma Ke didn't waste any time and continued his cultivation.

Instead of saving up spirit stones as before, he used them directly for cultivation, because this was much faster than absorbing the mixed spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

After all, in this world, strength is king. Without sufficient strength, accumulating wealth is nothing more than doing the work for others.

In just five days, all one hundred low-grade spirit stones were used up, and Ma Ke's cultivation level successfully entered the fourth level, which represents the middle stage of Qi Refining.

Once you reach the mid-stage of Qi Refining, you can apply to join the inner sect and become a true disciple of the Ziyang Sect.

But Ma Ke wouldn't be foolish enough to actually do that. After all, anyone would be suspicious if a good-for-nothing who had been at the first level of Qi Refining for ten years suddenly advanced to the fourth level of Qi Refining in less than a month.

Even though he's at the second level of Qi Refining, he doesn't dare to reveal it yet. He plans to play it safe for now, since he has Liu Ruoxi's protection and there won't be any trouble for the time being.

After thinking it over, he took out the Qi Gathering Pill.

As the name suggests, this is a pill that gathers spiritual energy, and it is also helpful for cultivation.

Meanwhile, in Liu Ruoxi's cave, she asked Sun Tai, who was bowing respectfully, "Has Junior Brother Ma been cultivating diligently these past few days?"

"Yes, yes, as Senior Sister instructed, I have been secretly looking after Junior Brother Ma every day, and Junior Brother Ma is still cultivating diligently as always," Sun Tai replied hastily.

"So, he's been staying at his residence these past few days and hasn't come out at all?" Liu Ruoxi pressed.

"He's been out before, and he can cook. I even brought him ten pounds of meat for lunch today," Sun Tai replied with a smile, but the smile quickly froze on his face.

Liu Ruoxi quickly concealed the cold glint in her eyes and smiled, "In that case, go and invite him here. I need to speak with him. Good news!"

Sun Tai felt he must be seeing things, so he didn't dare delay and quickly agreed.
