Immortality Begins with the Xia Flame

By the banks of the Yi River in the Xia dynasty, bronze caster Shen Chengyu survived a sacrificial fire. The fierce flames seared into his bones and blood. He no longer ages, and wounds and illnesses heal—yet he is no god. A blade cut still hurts; an arrow into flesh still draws blood. The only thing he cannot escape is the endless stretch of time. The king's envoys track his whereabouts, and the world fears the life he should not possess. From the rise of Xia to the fall of the Great Ming. Dynasties rise and fall, cities and walls turn to earth, and generation after generation of acquaintances grow old and are buried in the yellow soil. Only he remains on the road, forever saying farewell, watching mountains and rivers change masters, watching the joys and sorrows of the mortal world. Immortality is not a gift—it is an exile with no end. — Description from novelcodex.orgFull novel: Immortality Begins with the Xia Flame — read the rest free on N​o⁠v​e⁠l​C⁠o​d⁠e​x⁠.​o⁠r​g⁠
