Corpse Burner: I Grow Stronger by Cremating the Dead

In the dying days of the Great Li dynasty, one profession strikes fear into even the bravest hearts: the Corpse Burner. When the dead refuse to stay dead, only fire can grant them peace—but at a terrible price. Locked alone with a corpse at midnight, a single mutation means certain death. Qin He survives on the canal docks performing this cursed ritual, until he awakens a mysterious talent that rewards him for every body he burns. What others fear, he now craves. As supernatural horrors multiply and the empire crumbles, Qin He will forge his path to power one cremation at a time.
