Nine Nights of Everlasting Light

When the Ember Lamp appears, the long night arrives; When nine lamps burn out, the Heavenly Gate opens. While the lamp lives, the person lives; when the lamp dies, the soul fades. So-called cultivation is nothing but burning a lamp. A prophecy has circulated across the Nine Provinces for nine hundred years. Since the Era of Ignition, every person has been born with a lamp of fate, suspended three inches above the space between their brows. Ordinary people cannot see it; only cultivators can. — Description from novelcodex.orgFull novel: Nine Nights of Everlasting Light — read the rest free on N​o⁠v​e⁠l​C⁠o​d⁠e​x⁠.​o⁠r​g⁠
