Synopsis of The Lamplighter of the Dharma-Ending Age
Spiritual qi revival, ghosts and monsters on the rampage. The human world falls into chaos. Who will hold the lamp?
Lin Feng was just an ordinary student struggling to make ends meet. Out of desperation, he rented a haunted house at an absurdly low price. On his very first night, ancient knocking sounds began to echo rhythmically through the absolute darkness, nearly dragging him into the depths of despair.
At the brink of death, a broken jade slip he had casually picked up at a street stall suddenly awakened. It became a warm, ancient lamp suspended in the darkness, driving back the ghostly sounds that had come to claim his life.
From then on, Lin Feng’s life veered completely off course. He discovered that beneath the modern city where he lived lurked a “hidden world,” awakening alongside the spiritual qi revival. Ghosts roamed in droves, demonic shadows stirred, and ancient evils crawled out of the dust of history, seeking to turn the human world into a living hell.
The ancient lamp he wielded turned out to be a priceless inheritance passed down through the ancient Lamplighter lineage. It could discern the true names of demons and ghosts and burn away the evil spirits of the world. By redeeming or destroying spirits, the lamp could absorb spiritual essence and unlock more lost spells and secret arts.
From strange incidents on campus to demonic shadows in the city, from ancient rites in deserted villages to searches through secret realms... Lin Feng was forced, step by step, into this bizarre world. With the ancient lamp in hand, he navigated between a discreet, mysterious government agency, civilian practitioners with hidden agendas, demon clans quietly blending into modern society, and a terrifying organization of evil cultivators concealed behind the chaos.
I just discovered a new book, and it looks pretty good! Keep up the good work, author!
