The Coffin Keeper: Seven Chances After Death

People don't actually need to cultivate to get seven chances at “eternal life”... The only catch is that all seven chances come in the instant after death. If you can seize just one of them, you can claw your way back from that cold, lightless place... The protagonist, Li Chen, is heir to the tradition of “coffin guardians,” and at the same time, he is one of the “unclean.” “The unclean are neither human nor ghost, neither god nor demon.” “When ordinary people see them, they believe them to be an ill omen.” “When ghosts and monsters see them, they think they are one of their own.” “When the gods see them, they consider them blasphemous!” “Thus, the unclean have no friends or family. They stand alone, journeying through heaven and earth.” The unclean: Having understood the vastness of the world, he still cherishes the green of grass and trees.
