Chapter 691: Wishing for a Thousand Years of Unchanging Devotion
"How should we test it?"
Qin Jian asked curiously, "Is it like them, praying to the Sea God?"
"Of course not," Poseixi shook her head and smiled, "Our levels are too high; a single Sea Sacred Pillar doesn't even have the qualifications to accept us."
"Come with me."
She took Qin Jian's hand openly on the street and walked straight through the crowd toward the center.
At this moment, the light of the Sea Sacred Pillar had completely stagnated, and no black or red beams of light had appeared.
The others were already accustomed to this; those who were matched were tentatively getting to know each other, while those who were not matched began to find others in the same situation to strike up a conversation.
Yet at this very moment, Qin Jian and Poseixi, a man and woman of such peerless beauty, walked through the crowd, instantly attracting most of the attention.
"What are they doing? Hasn't the Sea God's blessing already ended?"
"Perhaps they are making a wish?"
"They are holding hands, they are clearly already a couple, why would they still come to make a wish?"
"..."
The sound of discussion gradually grew louder.
But neither Qin Jian nor Poseixi had any intention of paying attention.
The only thing they cared about was Ning Rongrong and Xiao Wu, who had suddenly appeared not far behind them.
"I specifically chose the more remote Sea Maiden City, yet they still found us."
Poseixi sensed those two straight, piercing gazes behind her and could only shake her head helplessly.
Qin Jian patted her hand and comforted her, "We were going to have them witness it anyway, just pretend they don't exist."
"Truly... a speechless witness..." Poseixi muttered silently to the Sea God.
Qin Jian nodded silently: "You couldn't be more right."
The two soon arrived before the Sea Sacred Pillar.
"What do I do?" Qin Jian asked curiously.
Poseixi grabbed his hand: "It's very simple, just place your hands on the Sea Sacred Pillar together, and simultaneously channel your needs and wishes for your other half into the Sea Sacred Pillar as Spirit Power."
Qin Jian's hand followed hers and was placed on the Sea Sacred Pillar.
Many people watched this scene with curiosity, somewhat puzzled, but they still restrained the urge to ask.
After all, not everyone is qualified to touch the Sea Sacred Pillar.
"Rongrong, what are they doing?" Xiao Wu watched from afar, arms crossed, looking stifled.
Ning Rongrong also had her arms crossed, pouting: "Didn't you see the Sea God's blessing just now? Maybe they also want to obtain recognition?"
"It's Sea God Island's Valentine's Day, this High Priest really knows how to play!"
Xiao Wu gritted her teeth and said: "Tell me, should we find an opportunity to ruin their atmosphere?"
Ning Rongrong's eyes lit up for a moment, but she quickly restrained herself and said helplessly: "Don't forget our Assessment, we have to witness it. If we ruin this time, there will be a next time; it will always come."
Xiao Wu's face flushed red: "This is too stifling."
Ning Rongrong pouted: "Who told them to be the Sea God's own daughter!"
"I've never seen anyone so happy to give away their daughter!" Xiao Wu said indignantly.
"Boom!"
Just as Ning Rongrong was about to say something, a pink light suddenly shot into the sky, attracting their attention.
"This momentum, isn't it too big?!"
Xiao Wu opened her mouth, unable to close it for a long time.
Because seven pink beams of light had actually lit up in the night sky, all the Sea Sacred Pillars were flickering, simultaneously projecting light continuously onto Qin Jian and Poseixi, causing the eyes of the entire world to focus on them.
The sheer earth-shattering momentum of this alone had already attracted everyone's gaze.
"Hmm? Could it be that a Title Douluo has activated the Sea Sacred Pillar to seek a marriage connection?"
In a tavern in Sea Dragon City, Hailong Douluo and Haihuan Douluo were drinking opposite each other.
"Why not go take a look?" Hailong Douluo suggested.
Haihuan Douluo smiled slightly: "There are only seven of us, of course we have to see whose spring has arrived."
Although for the past year or so, the Sea God Nine Trials had been pushing Qin Jian and Poseixi together, and they had also witnessed the grand occasion of them kissing, they still didn't associate it with Poseixi for a moment.
After all, the High Priest's prestige was already deeply rooted in people's hearts; they simply couldn't imagine that she would go to test the Sea Sacred Pillar herself.
So when the seven of them, plus Xiaobai, appeared at the source of the commotion and saw Poseixi, the expressions on their faces were as surprised as could be.
"High Priest actually... actually activated the Sea Sacred Pillar with that Soul Beast King?!"
The Mermaid Princess's voice was as crisp and pleasant as ever: "They also want to obtain recognition? Aren't they afraid of getting a white beam of light in the end?"
"That's not the scariest part," Xiaobai took out a coconut and started slurping: "The scariest part is that the two of them are linked with everyone else, that scene..."
"It's too good to watch!"
The Mermaid Princess's eyes shone.
The six, including Hailong Douluo: "..."
When it comes to being mean, you two are the meanest!
"I wonder what their wishes are? Will they be very compatible?" Haima Douluo asked curiously.
The others also stared intently, watching this side.
Their appearance was naturally noticed by Qin Jian and Poseixi, but at this point, they couldn't retreat, so the two could only follow the guidance of the light and slowly close their eyes.
"What kind of spouse do you want to spend your life with?"
The two seemed to hear such a voice at the same time.
Poseixi paused, then without hesitation, she transmitted her needs with her Spirit Power: "I, Poseixi, only seek to grow old with one person; even when our hair turns white, we shall remain unswerving toward each other."
On the other side, Qin Jian's eyeballs moved beneath his eyelids, and for a moment, he did not answer.
He had many things he wanted, and for a moment, he actually did not know what to say.
"I have many things I want, yet I want nothing at all..."
He deliberated his words and said: "Sea Sacred Pillar, I do not know if you can understand what I mean. I yearn for many intimate relationships, but I do not need them to give me anything; I only want that mutual understanding, that mutual commitment, and that promise to never abandon one another."
Hum, hum...
The Sea Sacred Pillar trembled slightly, and its light flickered back and forth, appearing to be very hesitant.
"What is wrong with the Sea Sacred Pillar?" The Mermaid Princess Hainv Douluo sensed carefully and said: "I actually felt a sense of confusion from the Sea Maiden Holy Pillar."
"Hmm, I sensed it too. The Sacred Pillar seems a bit... bewildered?" Haima Douluo's cheek twitched.
"Bewildered?"
The others were also bewildered: "What exactly did they express that the Sea Sacred Pillar is actually unable to comprehend?"
At this moment, Qin Jian and Poseixi also simultaneously sensed the information fed back by the Sacred Pillar.
It hoped they could be more specific and not be so abstract...
Perhaps as a matching machine, it could at most only perform concrete pairings...
Qin Jian and Poseixi hesitated for a while, and in the end, they almost simultaneously sent out their Spirit Power.
The words they expressed were different, but the meaning was astonishingly consistent: "My life has come for love; I wish to seek a love that transcends time and space, regardless of life or death, unchanging for ten thousand years!"
Sea Sacred Pillar: "..."
