Nine Rings C27
by MarineTL — Chapter 27: The Nine Murals He Yu blocked me in the crevice and tossed me a fruit knife. “Stay here!” With that, he dashed out to help. But once more people showed up, I wasn’t scared anymore. Orders like that don’t work on me in moments like this—both of them had gone out, how could I just sit here like a scared dog? I picked up the fruit knife and squeezed out of the crevice. What I saw was a giant centipede-like creature, several meters long, lying on the ground with its belly split open.…

Nine Rings C26
by MarineTL — Chapter 26: Bug Hunt The two of us huddled together and drank a little water. Worried that the Coffin and Outer Coffin behind us might have been pried open by those bugs, we crawled forward for another half an hour. The tunnel was narrow—whoever carved these passages must have been unusually short. I kept banging my head or scraping my back, making every inch of progress a struggle. The tunnel twisted and turned. Though there were no sheer drops or vertical climbs, a few steep slopes angled at nearly…

Nine Rings C250
by MarineTL — Chapter 250: Flight I first had Old Qian help me steady the two flashlights, which were beginning to dim. Using the ring of starlight shadows they cast, I constructed a coordinate system in my mind. With this system, I could pinpoint the vertical and horizontal positions of each star. After a quick survey, I knelt on the ground and opened my tool kit. I pulled out a curved Cloud-Probing Needle. This needle was specialized, featuring a small spring at the tip that allowed it to automatically expand…

Nine Rings C25
by MarineTL — Chapter 25: A Twenty-Six-Year-Old Minor I smacked He Yu hard on the shoulder. “Don’t just stand there! Move!” The slap snapped him out of it. The two of us crouched low, eyes on the ceiling as we hurriedly backed toward the Coffin and Outer Coffin. We’d barely taken two steps when a beam of flashlight flickered—and in that brief flash, I saw it. A pale corpse clinging to the rock wall, gliding sideways like a spider. “Shit! Is that a Corpse Reanimation?” He Yu clearly saw it too. He…

Nine Rings C249
by MarineTL — Chapter 249: Decoding Tian Xiao looked at me and said, "If my information is correct, you already have a certain understanding of the Nine-Ring Jade Casket." His sudden question instantly severed the faint connections forming in my mind. I didn't know where he had gotten his information, but I had to admit he was right. I had already sketched out the basic internal diagram of the casket. Opening it was simply a matter of arranging the beads inside correctly; I was just one step away from…

Nine Rings C248
by MarineTL — Chapter 248: The Trump Card Tian Xiao circled the area and returned, his expression grave as he spoke to me. "There is no Houtu Blood here. Could the legends be false?" Lu Ayao had guessed correctly; their true objective was indeed to find the legendary elixir of immortality. Our current position should have been the deepest part of the tomb. The stone coffin in the center of the Underworld Hall was undoubtedly the sarcophagus of the King of Gune. If the legends of the Houtu Blood were true, he…

Nine Rings C247
by MarineTL — Chapter 247: The Bronze Coffin The moment the trigger was pulled, the gun suddenly exploded right next to my ear. That damn rifle actually backfired! The explosion instantly took out the guy who fired it. The gun must have been soaked through when it fell into the water earlier. This model wasn't waterproof. I thought it would be fine once it dried out, but clearly, I was wrong. When I was fighting the giant bats earlier, the gun had been knocked away before I could use it. It was a stroke of luck that…

Chapter
Nine Rings C246
by MarineTL — Chapter 246: Imminent Disaster After a moment's consideration, I decided I couldn't let Old Qian and Han Zhuo keep eating like this. Even if it were real mutton, eating at that pace would lead to disaster. I quickly conferred with He Yu, and we decided to use the hemp rope found in the shop to tie up the two crazed men. He Yu would stay behind to watch them while I scouted the nearby area for any other clues. Old Qian and Han Zhuo's eyes were bloodshot. When they looked up from their bowls, they gave…
