Stealing Secrets

"Everyone has three lamps of life, which will burn out when they burn out. But I can steal other people's time and light up my own destiny." Lin Che was a law-abiding accountant until that day when he witnessed a caravan dying of old age in a strange way in front of him - seventeen strong men turned into rotten bones in an instant. Only then did he realize with horror that he could actually see the "life candle" hanging above everyone's head: the flickering of the candle indicates life and death. And with just one thought, he can steal other people's burning life candles and use them for his own use. In the world of Jiuzhou, a time-related catastrophe is coming quietly. Thousand-year-old families have shown their trump cards one after another, and the hidden sects are competing all over the world, just to compete for the legendary "source of life". But he, a mortal who initially just wanted to survive, gradually uncovered the oldest secret in the world in the whirlpool of fate: it turned out that the human world he was in was just a cage within a cage; the so-called immortal Taoism was actually a forbidden magic that stole the time of heaven. When a broken knife pointed at the sky, Lin Che finally understood: stealing a life is not a crime, but usurping the sky is a merit. "What they stole was cultivation, what I stole was life. They stole law, and I - stole heaven."
