Lantern Enchantment

This book is also known as "The Eternal Night of the Lantern Demon".

The "Lantern Bearers" of the Night Watch are ordered to patrol the darkness, their lanterns illuminating the depths of human hearts and the underworld, fueled by the spirits of demons. Li, a transmigrator, discovers his lantern is actually a "Compendium of Strange Flames," its power increasing the more strange flames it contains. By day, he's a henchman of the imperial court, investigating cases and confiscating property; by night, he's a ruthless ruler, burning demons and refining monsters. When he lights the 108th strange flame in his lantern, he realizes this world is a cage imprisoning ancient demons, and his lantern is both the key and the shackle.
