101: Chapter 101 Knowledge changes destiny!

“Alright, Aunt, don’t think too much. Let’s focus on Cultivating to the Golden Core Realm first.

You absolutely must not tell Du Xiaoyue what I just said, otherwise, she might get flustered and lose the motivation to Cultivate properly.

Let’s just take it one step at a time, steadily moving forward. Maybe I’m overthinking things.”

Wang Bin wore an optimistic smile, as if he already had a plan in mind.

In fact, he had already conceived a possible solution in his mind: harnessing the power of the sun.

If he could find a Cultivation Technique, or create one himself using his wisdom, that could absorb solar energy from the sun during the day and starlight at night for Cultivation, then all problems would be perfectly resolved.

This way, he would be able to break free from the shackles of Spiritual Qi and carve out a path of Cultivation with infinite possibilities for himself.

Alternatively, like the current improvement of Formations, converting the sun’s energy into electrical energy to power the Formations is also a good direction.

This was also why he asked Du Juan to help him collect information on Artifact Refining, Formations, and Alchemy.

Although he had some knowledge from his previous life stored in his mind, the world he was in was different, and he had to combine it closely with the actual circumstances of this world to maximize its effectiveness.

He firmly believed that knowledge changes destiny; if it doesn't, it only means that the knowledge you possess is not enough!

Wang Bin even fantasized that if he could skillfully integrate the Alchemy, Spell, and Artifact Refining techniques of this world with the Chemistry, Biology, Physics, and Medical knowledge he learned in his previous life, it might truly be possible to develop the legendary Elixir of Immortality.

If he were to Cultivate step by step, with his current Aptitude, he would probably ultimately be unable to escape the fate of dying of old age.

Of course, these were still just some of his innermost thoughts, and realizing them would require step-by-step experimentation.

The most important task at hand was to successfully Cultivate to the Golden Core Realm, only by reaching the Golden Core Realm.

Could he have enough lifespan to initiate those research plans, and at the same time, possess a certain degree of self-preservation to go further on this path of Cultivation.

Let’s leave it at that for now. Besides, the Chu Family is treating me quite well at the moment.

I might as well set a small goal for myself first: to marry Chu Qingluan, which would fulfill a small wish from my previous life.

I just hope she doesn’t fail to appreciate it and gets married early before I Cultivate to the Nascent Soul Realm, hehe.

Wang Bin chuckled to himself, the corners of his mouth unconsciously curling upwards.

Time flew by, and three days passed in a flash.

In these few days, Du Juan fully demonstrated her excellent organizational skills, procuring all the items Wang Bin needed.

Not only did she buy two good quality Foundation Establishment Pills, but she also collected a large amount of Cultivation experiences for first and second-tier secondary professions like Formations and Alchemy. Several pieces of information related to Puppeteers were also found, and various secondary profession recipes and blueprints were all available.

In addition, a sufficient quantity of Mind Nourishing Pills for Du Xiaoyue was prepared, and even the two hundred catties of obsidian that Wang Bin had been longing for were successfully acquired.

The biggest surprise was that Du Juan also managed to get Wang Bin a Storage Bracelet, whose internal space was ten times larger than an ordinary Storage Pouch, almost the same size as the Storage Pouch obtained from the Qingluan Bird.

However, this bracelet, worn on the wrist, was extremely convenient to use, especially during intense battles, where the speed of retrieving items from it was much faster than from a Storage Pouch, which would undoubtedly save him a lot of time at critical moments.

Finally, the joyous day of Wang Bin and Du Xiaoyue becoming Dao Companions arrived.

The home was meticulously decorated today, filled with a festive atmosphere.

However, this wedding was quite different from what Wang Bin had imagined.

He was neither required to wear luxurious festive attire, nor were there any complicated and lengthy traditional wedding ceremonies.

Wang Bin couldn't help but feel a little puzzled, wondering if this was the usual simple procedure for Cultivators becoming Dao Companions, or if their wedding was specifically simplified.

He had no say in this matter and simply followed Du Juan's arrangements.

“Alas, it must be because I have no reputation in White Cloud City and my own strength is too low.

If a Golden Core or Nascent Soul Cultivator from the Chu Family were to hold a wedding, the scene would surely be lively and bustling, with esteemed guests filling the venue to capacity, and the gifts received would probably pile up like mountains.”

Wang Bin sighed to himself, but his face still held a faint smile, accepting everything calmly.

The first to arrive were Du Xiaoyue’s few Qi Refinement Stage female Cultivator colleagues from the shop, including Li Ziqi.

As soon as they entered, Du Xiaoyue enthusiastically greeted them and personally entertained them.

Afterward, two Foundation Establishment Cultivators arrived, who were Du Juan’s good friends.

As noon approached, two unexpected guests appeared: Chu Tianwen and Chu Tianqing, brother and sister, came uninvited.

Wang Bin was truly surprised; he hadn't notified them.

After Du Juan’s explanation, he suddenly understood.

It turned out that Du Juan had cooperated with Chu Tianwen for many years. In the shop, she often recommended Foundation Establishment Cultivators to attend the trade fairs held by Chu Tianwen, and their relationship was quite good.

As for Chu Tianqing, she heard that Wang Bin was becoming a Dao Companion today and, out of curiosity, specially came to join the fun.

Although she was truly puzzled, not understanding why Wang Bin, a Late Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivator who was about to Breakthrough to Golden Core, would choose to become a Dao Companion with a Qi Refinement Stage female Cultivator, out of politeness, she did not ask further.

Inside Du Xiaoyue’s boudoir, Li Ziqi and her other little sisters surrounded Du Xiaoyue, chattering non-stop with envious expressions.

“Xiaoyue, will you still work in the shop after you get married?”

One female Cultivator asked curiously.

“No way! I’ll follow Junior Martial Uncle to White Cloud City and develop the Family together.”

Du Xiaoyue replied softly, her face beaming with a happy smile.

“Hehe, still calling him Junior Martial Uncle!”

A married female Cultivator next to them teased, with a hint of ambiguity in her eyes.

“Of course, Junior Martial Uncle said he likes me calling him that. This is my exclusive title, you know.”

Du Xiaoyue slightly lifted her chin, saying proudly.

“Pfft, hahaha, so Senior Qingmu likes that kind of thing!”

The married female Cultivator couldn’t help but burst into laughter.

Li Ziqi and the other two female Cultivators looked at them blankly, subconsciously asking:

“What are you talking about? Is there something funny about this?”

“Haha, Xiaoqi, you’ll understand when you find a Dao Companion!” The married female Cultivator laughed and teased.

“Hehe, I also want to find a Foundation Establishment Cultivator as a Dao Companion, otherwise, working busy in the shop every day like me, when will I ever save enough for a Foundation Establishment Pill?

Xiaoyue, you are truly so fortunate. Working in the shop, you have a Foundation Establishment Stage aunt as a supervisor, so you earn more than us normally.

Now you’re marrying a Late Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivator, and I heard he’ll soon advance to Golden Core.

Sigh! I was the one who first received him that day. If I had known this day would come, I should have been more proactive then!”

Li Ziqi teased Du Xiaoyue half-jokingly, half-seriously, her heart full of envy and jealousy.

“Hmph! You little Fox Spirit, still trying to seduce my Junior Martial Uncle, no way.

Hmph, this Young Miss will also become a Foundation Establishment Cultivator soon. Remember to call me Senior Du then!”

Du Xiaoyue said proudly, hands on her hips. Seeing this, the others also followed her words and teased her, and the room was immediately filled with laughter and joy.
