The Shallow Night was about to end. Qin Ming awoke. The Sunstone in the bronze basin emitted a soft, fiery glow. The house was quiet. He was unbearably thirsty, his throat feeling like it was about to emit smoke. Only after downing several large bowls of ice water did he let out a long breath. Soon, he noticed something unusual. His inner clothes felt slightly tight, as if they no longer fit. Realizing what this meant, he went to the doorframe and measured himself. He confirmed that he had grown a…-

In this era, the dark night shrouded heaven and earth. Luminous creatures were rare. Once one appeared, it likely meant it was formidable, deadly, and that one needed to get far away from its territory as soon as possible. In the vast wilderness, no one knew how many dangerous beings lay dormant. To dare expose oneself in an environment fraught with crisis, to unscrupulously radiate light, was undoubtedly a display of confidence. It most likely meant its strength was absolute. Qin Ming slid…

Outside the village, it was pitch-black, the scenery difficult to discern. Few people came out at this time. "Uncle Yang?" Not far from the village, Qin Ming spotted a stocky man. Yang Yongqing was surprised. "Little Qin, the Shallow Night hasn't arrived yet. You're heading out this early?" "I wanted to try my luck in the wilderness, see if there are any frozen mountain beasts," Qin Ming replied. Yang Yongqing laughed. "We had the same idea. I just did a loop outside the mountains, but…

Ripples stirred in Qin Ming's heart. The "path" he was once told he could never master—had he now perfected it, broken through it? He returned from the wilderness, a fire seemingly burning within him, making even the harsh winter feel warm. The growing strength in his body was no illusion. With a flick of his toe, he sent the stone mill in the courtyard lifting off the ground. He leaped into the air, the feeling of suspension strong, and snatched a handful of snow from the eaves of the…

Qin Ming nodded solemnly. It was indeed time to figure out how to achieve "New Life." This was a major event, one that concerned his entire life and would influence his future destiny. Fifteen to sixteen years old was the golden period. Achieving "New Life" at this age yielded the greatest benefits; missing it would be an immense pity. But it was very difficult. The most outstanding individuals in Twin Tree Village had all achieved "New Life" after the age of twenty, and some had even been over…

Qin Ming withdrew his gaze and, shouldering the hide bag, started back the way he came. He had reaped a considerable harvest today and was already very satisfied. With this large bag of food, he wouldn't go hungry for a short while. There were hollows and rocks hidden beneath the snow, making the path difficult, but Qin Ming was in a good mood. With ample food, he no longer had any worries. If he trained with those specific movements for an extended period, he might make new progress. At the…

When the Shallow Night arrived, the tranquility was broken as every household bustled to the Fire Spring to retrieve their Sunstones. Qin Ming was ready to depart at a moment's notice, fully armed with a hunting fork, a short blade, a bow, and arrows. He had already eaten the flatbread Lu Ze brought over but didn't mention his plan to go out, fearing he would be talked out of it. Qin Ming had no desire to throw himself into peril; he planned to try his luck in a relatively safe area. He had…

The Fire Spring was encircled by stones, its rosy mist rising. In a world shrouded in night, it was exceptionally brilliant. Qin Ming crouched down and scooped a glowing stone from the pool. It was more lustrous than red coral, its radiant light shining in all directions. All the Sunstones used by the families came from the Fire Spring. After the stones extinguished, they could be placed back here, and after a period of time, they would be restored to their original state. The pool was filled with…

That day, the sun set and never rose again… Evernight. Heaven and earth were pitch-black, like an immeasurable abyss threatening to devour everything. Daylight had long since become a thing of the past, a legend. Across the vast frozen tundra, a bitter wind howled. A blizzard raged, dumping snow until it was half a man’s height on the ground. Twin Tree Village was half-buried by the great snows. With only forty or fifty households, it was a village that seemed forgotten by time. In…

Arriving in front of the small courtyard on the half-slope, Lu Qing rarely did not see his master practicing his fists in the open space in front of the door. He went into the house to take a look and found that the door to the medicine room was still tightly closed, with a faint medicinal fragrance coming from inside. Knowing that his master was still refining medicine inside, he did not make a sound to disturb him. Instead, he placed the bucket in the corner, consciously took out a broom, and…-
