The Divine Molting Descends: Death Within 49 Days

When a person dies, they leave behind a divine husk. The year Shen Yan turned twenty, his divine husk fell off ahead of schedule. According to the old records of the Divine Illumination Bureau, no one who had experienced this had survived the full forty-nine days. Shen Yan had thought he was simply unlucky. That was until he discovered that he had already died once at the ages of two, seven, and twelve. Each time, his father, Shen Guanchao, who had been missing for eight years, had brought him back. But strangely enough... His father knew the fourth time would come, yet had made no preparations to prolong his life. He left behind only a path leading to the Spring of Return. And a single sentence. “I chose for him the first three times.” “This time, let him choose for himself.” Forty-nine days later, Shen Yan died. Three hours later, he opened his eyes again. He remembered his mother, his friends, and everything that had happened before he died. He was certain that he was still Shen Yan. Until he discovered... That decades earlier, another dead man had climbed back out of his coffin. And after that man returned, another living person in the village went missing.
