Mingzhu Wusheng

After the sky split, the days became shorter each year. Every ever-burning lamp lit by people in the city burns the life of people outside the city. Ji Heng is the most inconspicuous material inspection apprentice in the Yao Materials Department. He has no identity, no status, and no talent. The only special thing is a blood bead hidden in his consciousness. Blood beads can swallow life. No matter whether it is a human or an animal, as long as life belongs to it, it can be turned into material for Ji Heng to continue to evolve. Within the city walls, nobles took human lives to light lamps. Outside the city walls, behemoths adapted to darkness roam the lightless wilderness. Ji Heng doesn't plan to save anyone. He just doesn't want to one day become a wick in someone else's lamp. Ji Daowen, the protagonist is not a human being in the middle and later stages!
