I became the Open Source Saint Ancestor in the Cultivation World

Seven days later, Jiang Xiyue's wounds slowly healed, and she fully recovered.

"No, apart from the water elemental energy, the other elemental energy here is too scarce."

After mastering the complete "Open Source Limitless Technique," Jiang Xiyue's ambition swelled, and she became dissatisfied with her current cultivation speed.

Moreover, if one can break through to the late Foundation Establishment stage before entering the Bewildering Swamp, it will definitely be of great benefit.

So she stood up and said, "It's time to leave."

Ma Ke naturally had no objections. After all, this woman had just started practicing the "Open Source Limitless Technique," and the difference in their cultivation levels was too great. He had no confidence in countering her at the moment, so he could only continue to feign compliance.

Half a month later, the two landed outside the majestic city with the words "Lin Yuan" written on it.

This place is different from the ordinary city of Jiaozhou that Ma Ke had visited; this is a true city of cultivators.

Although there are many mortals in the city, they are the result of the descendants of many cultivators over thousands of years returning to ordinariness. Other mortals would not even be able to see this city without the guidance of a cultivator.

After easily entering the city, Jiang Xiyue thought to herself, "Now that I have the method of concealing my aura from the 'Open Source Limitless Skill,' as long as I don't expose my demonic skills, my identity shouldn't be revealed."

Since that's the case, there's no need to put Ma Ke in the open and make him the leader. So before entering the city, she not only concealed her cultivation level but also made Ma Ke completely conceal his.

In this way, the fact that the cultivation levels of the two individuals were undetectable even to those at the Golden Core stage or the Nascent Soul stage made them seem unfathomable.

So, Jiang Xiyue led Ma Ke directly into the city's largest auction house: Tianyuan Auction House.

"Seniors, may I be of service to you?" Upon seeing that Jiang Xiyue was in charge, a handsome male cultivator from the auction house quickly stepped forward and asked.

Jiang Xiyue simply said, "I have a treasure to auction here. Let someone in charge come."

"Yes, please wait a moment, senior."

Not long after, an old man in the early stage of the Golden Core realm came down from upstairs.

Although they saw that the two were young and there was no spiritual energy fluctuation around them, they dared not be negligent in the slightest.

Because if someone can't sense spiritual power even with his Golden Core cultivation, they are either an ordinary mortal or someone with a higher level of cultivation than him.

The current scenario undoubtedly falls into the second category.

So he quickly bowed respectfully and said, "My surname is Jin. Please come upstairs, seniors."

Jiang Xiyue nodded slightly and walked upstairs, with Ma Ke following her neither servilely nor arrogantly.

Jiang Xiyue was very satisfied with this. She had previously worried that Ma Ke would show weakness in front of high-level cultivators, which would arouse suspicion.

Looking back now, there was nothing to worry about, which made her believe in what Ma Ke had done in the Chanyuan Secret Realm.

The elderly man surnamed Jin led the two directly to a room on the third floor, activated the array with his hand, and then poured two cups of spiritual tea.

"This concealment formation is undetectable to those below the Nascent Soul stage. Senior, if you possess any treasures, please allow me to appraise them."

Jiang Xiyue didn't waste any words and casually tossed out a jade box.

After the old man surnamed Jin took it, he carefully opened it and his eyes lit up instantly, because he could tell at a glance that it was a thousand-year-old spiritual herb.

Not daring to be negligent, he immediately began to examine it carefully.

After a short while, the result was revealed: "This is a nearly 1,400-year-old Cold Marrow Grass."

Jiang Xiyue nodded slowly. In fact, she could only tell that it was a thousand-year-old spiritual herb, but she had no idea how many years old it was. However, she was certain that the other party would not dare to lie to her.

"Senior, thousand-year-old spiritual herbs are rare, and fourteen-hundred-year-old ones are even rarer. Our Tianyuan Auction House will definitely be able to get you a satisfactory price."

Jiang Xiyue said calmly, "It is precisely because I know that your Tianyuan Auction House has a great reputation that I have come here specifically."

"If you are not in a hurry to sell it, I suggest that you hold it at the large-scale auction held once a year. At that time, fellow Daoists from all walks of life will gather, and you can get a better price."

Jiang Xiyue hesitated for a moment, then asked, "How long will it take?"

"Thirty-seven days."

"In that case, it's fine." Jiang Xiyue nodded.

"According to the rules of our Tianyuan Auction House, we charge 10% of the auction price as commission. If you take a fancy to any treasure at the auction, you can pay 95% of the final transaction price. However, the discount cannot exceed 10% of the price of this Cold Marrow Grass."

"No problem." Jiang Xiyue readily agreed, because this was relatively fair, and besides, it was an unexpected windfall.

After both parties agreed, they immediately signed the auction agreement. The elderly man surnamed Jin then gave Jiang Xiyue a jade slip as proof and exchanged communication information for advance notification.

After dealing with these matters, Jiang Xiyue did not linger and quickly left Tianyuan Auction House with Ma Ke.

Next, the two traveled to a well-known alchemy pavilion and sold a 750-year-old Crimson Sun Lingzhi for 27,000 top-grade spirit stones.

Ma Ke thought he had misheard; it was a top-grade spirit stone, not a high-grade spirit stone.

Jiang Xiyue took the opportunity to buy more than a dozen bottles of top-quality pills, spending more than 10,000 top-grade spirit stones. Only then did she arrive at Qixian Pavilion with satisfaction and rent a superior cave dwelling for a month at a price of 99 top-grade spirit stones per day.

Upon entering the cave, Jiang Xiyue immediately activated the concealment formation she had set up, then tossed Ma Ke a storage bag: "As long as you obey me, I won't treat you unfairly."

"When the auction starts, if you see anything you like, I will do my best to get it for you."

Ma Ke looked into the storage bag and found two thousand top-grade spirit stones. Although he had never seen top-grade spirit stones before, these were originally his.

If a 700-year-old Chiyang Lingzhi can sell for 27,000, then a 1,400-year-old Han Sui Cao that is auctioned off would be worth at least several hundred thousand.

If we also consider the other spiritual materials that this witch hasn't brought out yet, wouldn't she have snatched away more than a million top-grade spirit stones in one fell swoop?

Thinking of this, Ma Ke felt a pang of heartache.

However, he showed no sign of gratitude on his face, and instead said gratefully, "Thank you, Yun Yao."

After a moment's thought, he added, "Then I wonder if you could exchange it for some top-grade spirit stones with other attributes?"

"Oh? Doesn't your Ziyang Sect mainly cultivate fire attributes?" Jiang Xiyue asked in confusion.

Ma Ke explained, "As you can see, anyone can cultivate the Open Source Limitless Technique, and I am a pseudo-spiritual root, possessing all five elements, so I can cultivate all five."

"My cultivation level cannot be revealed in the sect. If I break through to the Foundation Establishment stage too early, it may arouse suspicion from the sect."

"In that case, I plan to cultivate all five attributes to perfection."

Jiang Xiyue originally thought that the "Open Source Limitless Skill" could conceal one's aura, but she quickly realized that Ma Ke must have left a life-soul lamp in the sect.

As one's cultivation level breaks through, the Life Soul Lamp will also become brighter.

It's not very obvious during the Qi Refining stage, but it becomes much easier to see from Qi Refining to Foundation Establishment, and even more so from Foundation Establishment to Golden Core.

The request wasn't unreasonable, so she didn't refuse and gave Ma Ke a thousand yuan. After all, she had previously asked him to match the items according to various attributes.
