Yue Lao suddenly choked.
"Yes, yes, yes! I, the old man, don't understand! But even though I don't understand, I know that if you retreat before doing anything, you will definitely fail! You don't even have the courage to move forward, so how can you talk about being together? If you don't give it a try, how can you know if it's possible? What if..."
"There's no such thing as a last resort... I don't want to burden her, nor do I want to be a burden to her... If possible..."
I only wish she...
The sea of flowers suddenly became lively.
"Look! It's a mandala lamp!"
Someone in the crowd shouted, and everyone immediately looked up at the sky.
The ground was covered with a sea of red flowers, and the sky had darkened without anyone noticing.
The azure sky also turned into purple, and at this moment, the first lamp rose above the sky. It was a lamp with the same flower shape as Lycoris radiata, except that Lycoris radiata was bright red, while that lamp was white.
Under the illumination of lights, it has a light holy golden color. Influenced by the ambient light, the golden white has a light pink color, which is magnificent.
After the first light comes on, the second light comes on, the third light comes on...
"Why are the Mandala lamps lit again today? Could today be... the day that senior is reuniting with his lover?"
"Is today the 20th of July?"
"Yes."
"I see..."
Some monks who came from other regions were confused and couldn't help asking.
"Legend has it that the predecessor who created the Yellow Springs Dream died on the day when the red spider lilies were in full bloom, and reunited with his lover..."
"But why do you call the flying thing in the sky a Mandala Lantern?"
"Because, according to rumors in the Soul Realm, there's a flower growing in the Yellow Springs and Forgotten River realm. People call it the Other Shore Flower. The Other Shore Flowers in the Soul Realm come in two varieties: red and white. The red one is called Lycoris radiata, and the white one is called Datura. However, the petals and leaves of the other shore flower never meet. Although they both belong to the other shore, Lycoris radiata is the only one that can be found together with Datura... When that senior went to the Yellow Springs Soul Realm to search for his beloved, he didn't find her. Later, he only obtained Lycoris radiata seeds. In the end, he perished without ever finding his beloved... People in later generations mostly wanted a happy ending, but the original Soul Realm has vanished. Only Lycoris radiata remains, and no more Datura. So, on this day every year, people create a Datura out of lanterns... thus completing the relationship between Lycoris radiata and Datura..."
There is also a result, although this result was given by later generations.
Many people nodded.
"Are you from out of town?"
"Hmm! I once heard from a friend in the foreign land that he had the honor of visiting this place, so I brought my Taoist partner here too. The Yellow Springs Dreamland is indeed very beautiful, and it was worth the trip!"
"Hahaha! I see. Yunze Continent welcomes everyone! It's a coincidence, however, that today is July 20th. Although it's just a rumor in the world of immortal cultivation, it's also spread in the world of immortal cultivation that every time Manjushage and Mandragora meet on this day, it's the day lovers in the world meet. Even if they're separated by mountains and seas, or by countless worlds... their souls will be brought together by their mutual bond and longing."
"Love is separated by mountains and seas, can mountains and seas be leveled?"
"That's what I mean. So on this day every year, when the Mandala lamps are lit, it's also the time for fellow Taoists to make wishes. You... might as well give it a try."
The male and female cultivators looked at each other and saw that many fellow cultivators around them had closed their eyes and made devout wishes.
They smiled at each other.
Even though cultivators go against the will of heaven, they sometimes still believe in fate.
Lanterns rose one by one, and soon the night sky was filled with lanterns, like countless twinkling stars.
Shen Qingyi stood in the crowd, holding Feitian and looking up at the starry sky.
"Little girl, would you like to buy a Mandala lamp?"
Suddenly, an old voice came from the side.
When Shen Qing looked back, she saw an old woman standing beside her. She was holding a basket with several Mandala lamps in it.
At this moment, the old woman looked at her lovingly.
"No, no, I don't have a Taoist partner yet."
Seeing Shen Qing waving his hand, the old woman smiled and nodded at Shen Qing.
"Even if you don't have a Taoist partner, you can still use this Mandala lamp to make a wish for marriage. Little girl, would you like to buy one? This lamp is very effective. I've been selling lamps here for hundreds of years. I'm very good at judging people. If you want to pray for marriage, it will definitely come true!"
After all, such a pious atmosphere...
Shen Qingyi was about to wave his hand, but Pan Kong in the space had already spoken.
"Buy one. This old woman is not an ordinary cultivator, she is a soul cultivator, and the lamp in her hand is also quite interesting."
Hearing this, Shen Qing paused in waving his hand.
"How many spirit stones?"
The old man held up a finger.
Shen Qingyi was a little uncertain.
"A...spiritual stone?"
The old woman widened her eyes in surprise.
"Little girl, in today's world of immortal cultivation, where else can you find such a cheap price? Moreover, the materials used in this lamp of mine are very special. This lamp costs at least 10,000 low-grade spirit stones."
Shen Qingyi took a deep breath.
It's not that she is ignorant. She looked up at the sky. If each lamp is worth ten thousand spirit stones, then everything flying in the sky is the love of rich people!
As if she had noticed Shen Qingyi's thoughts, the old woman's eyes were dim.
"My lamp is not comparable to those in the sky. I only sell this lamp to those who are destined to receive it."
Shen Qingyi glanced at the lantern in the basket.
“It’s too expensive.”
The lantern she had bought under the marriage tree was rumored to be connected to the upper realm, and it was priced at that price...
And when it comes to marriage, she never forces it.
If you can pray for your own marriage, then what exactly belongs to you? Are you destined to lose something else important?
Sensing Shen Qingyi's thoughts, Pan Kong nodded.
"Indeed, in this world, unless it's a destined marriage, those who go to the Marriage Hall to ask for something will naturally lose other things of equal value. After all, in this world, some people seek marriage, some seek wealth, and some seek beauty... People's desires are different. If you keep giving without receiving anything in return, then even if the giver is the rule of heaven, it will eventually wear out and decay over time."
The old woman took a deep breath and looked at Shen Qingyi carefully.
It doesn’t look like the little girl is without spirit stones.
But if she can’t sell it, this is her first order of the day... then the thought of a hundred years of marriage will probably be ruined!
This is a big taboo!
"Forget it, little girl, you are the first destined person I have met today. I will give you a discount. Just tell me how much you want."
Seeing Shen Qingyi stretch out a finger, the old woman couldn't help but tremble.
Although she didn't lack those spirit stones, she still felt bad about it! She wasn't a sucker!
Whose descendant is this, so stingy!
