“Just then, he suddenly felt like there was a warm glow faintly emerging from the far distance, and the dark, obscure path on the ground seemed to be illuminated, the road brightening.
When he looked up, sure enough it wasn't just his imagination. There really was light in the horizon.
It was light from the three thousand Blessings Lanterns of Everlasting Light.
The floating lanterns flowed in the night sky, imposing and invigorating, even the shine of the stars and the moon was overcome.”
A drawing of Xie Lian, watching the three thousand Blessings Lanterns of Everlasting Light. A scene from a chinese novel titled Heaven Officials Blessings (天官赐福), written by Mò Xiāng Tóngxiù (墨香铜臭).
