I became the Open Source Saint Ancestor in the Cultivation World

"I don't know, maybe I have too much yang energy."

Faced with Liu Ruoxi's question, Ma Ke replied in a "terrified" manner.

"Hahaha..." Liu Ruoxi laughed loudly, "How come I never realized you, this good-for-nothing, were so glib?"

"Since you can't get the answer out of me, don't blame me for being ruthless."

Ma Ke shouted, "Senior Sister Liu, the original copy of the 'Open Source Limitless Skill' has already been taken by Sun Tai. Killing me won't do you any good."

Liu Ruoxi's expression changed slightly, then she sneered, "Since you guessed that I'm after the 'Open Source Limitless Technique,' how can you possibly live? As for Sun Tai, just kill him. You piece of trash, what right do you have to enjoy such an opportunity?"

"Die..."

Liu Ruoxi quickly formed several hand seals, and a rocket about half an arm's length was quickly formed.

"Now..." Ma Ke's expression hardened, and he suddenly thrust both palms out from behind his back, with blazing flames gathering in front of his palms.

"Still trying to resist? You're overestimating yourself." Although she was puzzled that Ma Ke knew the spells from the "Purple Sun True Scripture," which only inner disciples could cultivate, Liu Ruoxi just sneered.

Suddenly, her expression changed, and she quickly made several hand seals, but the rocket in front of her not only failed to solidify, but became more and more illusory, and even began to disintegrate.

"What's going on? I can't mobilize my internal energy."

Just then, Ma Ke thrust his palms forward sharply, one above the other.

In her panic, Liu Ruoxi had no time to react. With two loud bangs, charred pieces of cloth flew everywhere, and she was sent flying backward, crashing heavily into a large tree.

"Pfft..." Liu Ruoxi opened her mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood. Looking down, she saw that her right chest was a bloody mess and her lower body was charred black and still emitting blue smoke.

She never expected that this good-for-nothing she had looked down upon would have such strength and be so vicious.

"I'll kill you..." Liu Ruoxi screamed like a madwoman, her voice filled with heart-wrenching pain, and then began to repeatedly cast hand seals.

To her disbelief, the true energy within her body was still intermittent and could not be transformed into a continuous stream of spiritual power to drive spells, something she had never encountered before.

Seeing a rocket materializing in front of Ma Ke not far away, Liu Ruoxi cried out in horror, "How could this be?"

Just then, Ma Ke shouted coldly and pointed two fingers forward. The rocket that had been formed shot out and pierced Liu Ruoxi's injured right chest.

"Ah..." Liu Ruoxi screamed and spat out another mouthful of blood, her whole body becoming weak and listless.

Seeing that Ma Ke was continuing to cast spells, driven by the desire to survive, she quickly lowered her stance and begged for mercy, "Junior Brother Ma, you are my first man, I am already your woman, you can't kill me."

"As long as you don't kill me, I can swear on my Dao heart that I will never pursue what happened today, and I will remain your Daoist partner, help you in your cultivation, and never betray you."

Ma Ke remained unmoved. After all, it was Ma Ke who did it, what did it have to do with me, Feng Tao? Besides, you already drained Ma Ke to death before, who would dare to make you their Daoist partner? Do they have a death wish?

So he didn't even bother to answer, and simply pointed forward with a slightly cold expression.

With a whoosh, the rocket, carrying a chilling killing intent, pierced Liu Ruoxi's brow. Before she could even scream, her head lolled to the side, lifeless, her beautiful eyes wide open.

Clearly, she never imagined that she, a late-stage Qi Refining cultivator, would be defeated so miserably by a mere outer sect Qi Refining level one cultivator.

"Phew..." Ma Ke exhaled a deep breath, his face turning somewhat pale.

Although he was already at the fourth level of Qi Refining, casting three such spells in a row almost depleted his internal energy.

Fortunately, with Liu Ruoxi's death, a wisp of pure true energy merged into the page of the "Open Source Limitless Skill" in his mind where Liu Ruoxi was located. This was what Liu Ruoxi obtained by breaking through from the sixth level of Qi Refining to the seventh level of Qi Refining through cultivating this skill.

The reason why Liu Ruoxi was unable to complete the spellcasting continuously when she mobilized her true energy was because it contained this part of true energy, which was forcibly interfered with by Ma Ke.

Otherwise, how could Ma Ke have killed this woman so easily?

Although it was his first time killing someone, Ma Ke didn't feel much discomfort. Perhaps it was because the woman was too vicious and deserved to die.

He dared not delay, quickly refining and absorbing some of the true energy to replenish himself, and then unceremoniously searched every inch of Liu Ruoxi's corpse, obtaining an exquisite storage bag.

Without time to examine what he had gained, Ma Ke immediately gathered some dry branches to wrap around Liu Ruoxi, then quickly made a hand seal and cast a spell. He opened his mouth, and a tongue of fire shot out, igniting the dry branches.

Ma Ke dared not linger here for too long, and kept urging his spiritual power to intensify the flames until Liu Ruoxi was burned to ashes.

Next, he used the Earth Covering spell to roll up all the soil and ash in the battle area, compact it into a mud brick, and then quickly left with the mud brick in his arms.

Arriving at a stream, he threw the mud bricks in, cast a spell to dissolve them, and let the stream wash everything away. He then carefully checked and cleaned the residue off his body.

If this still leads to someone finding out about him, Ma Ke will accept it.

After doing all this, he pretended to be nonchalant and ran back. He encountered two groups of inner disciples along the way, but they ignored him when they saw that he was dressed in outer sect clothes.

Ma Ke casually hunted a Tier 1 Three-Colored Spirit Chicken and finally made it back to the outer sect in the afternoon.

Upon receiving the news, Sun Tai rushed over and asked, "Hey, Junior Brother Ma, where have you been?"

Ma Ke casually replied, "Senior Sister Liu said that simply staying behind closed doors to cultivate is not a good plan. Going out to experience more things will actually help with cultivation. Coincidentally, under Senior Sister's guidance, I finally broke through to the second level of Qi Refining, so I went to West Mountain to experience some things."

Having said that, he raised the spirit chicken in his hand.

"Oh my, Junior Brother Ma has broken through! That's truly a cause for celebration!" Sun Tai seemed even happier than if he himself had broken through, offering his congratulations repeatedly.

Ma Ke feigned politeness with him for a while, gave him the spirit chicken, and then returned to his stone house under the pretext of summarizing his gains.

It wasn't until late at night, after all the outer disciples had rested, that Ma Ke took out the storage bag by the moonlight and began to sort through his spoils.

Thirty-two mid-grade spirit stones, nearly five hundred low-grade spirit stones, six bottles of pills, three spirit talismans, a spirit boat, a magic sword, a shuttle-shaped magic weapon, a piece of animal hide, more than ten sets of inner and outer clothing and shoes and socks, as well as the handwritten copy of "Open Source Limitless Skill" that he had given her and a jade token representing his identity.

"As expected, the inner disciples are really rich." Ma Ke, who had never seen anything good before, was very excited, considering he had earned his first pot of gold.

However, he quickly calmed down and realized that he absolutely could not take out the magical artifacts and spirit boat, as they would be easily recognized, and his clothes also had to be destroyed.

As for spirit stones, spirit talismans, and pills, they are all common items, so there's no need to worry.

Finally, all that was left was that piece of animal hide, from some unknown monster.

Ma Ke unfolded it and looked at it in the moonlight. He found that it was covered with thousands of ancient characters, which turned out to be a kind of cultivation technique.
