Nine Rings C113
by MarineTL — Chapter 113: The Tomb Raider Who Went to His Death Chen Canghai knelt beside me to rest. Seeing me look at him, he made a few hand gestures. After seeing them so often, I could guess most of what he meant. He Yu hadn't seen them much, so he didn't understand and tapped me on the shoulder. "Wh-what was that? What does that mean again?" I explained, "He might have had systematic training in something like Sanda before." Chen Canghai nodded after hearing my explanation. I had guessed correctly,…

Nine Rings C28
by MarineTL — Chapter 28: The Right Decision Throughout history, inverted murals and decorations haven’t been all that rare. Sometimes, the ancients used reflections in lakes to create illusions that blended reality and fantasy—like using water to mirror the figures in a mural, crafting the illusion of an underwater city, a so-called “divine miracle.” He Yu was an authority on ancient paintings and artifact authentication. So when he said the image was “upside down,” I knew he wasn’t talking about…

Nine Rings C60
by MarineTL — Chapter 60: Suffocation This covered bridge probably doesn’t have too many traps, but that’s just my preliminary guess. After all, I’m not the one who built this ruin. Someone capable of embedding iron chains into the base of stone statues underwater is definitely no ordinary craftsman. If he insisted on rigging the bridge with something, I’d just have to accept my fate. Besides, it’s not like my mouth is really blessed with divine foresight. I raised my hand and gave Hou Jinshan a look. He…

Nine Rings C92
by MarineTL — Chapter 92: The One Who Carved the Words Liu Sanshui was a man shrouded in mystery. He was the youngest among the Five Masters of his generation, the first to die, but also the first Liu family member to rise to prominence. It's no exaggeration to say that the Liu family's vast client base today was built largely thanks to him. Of all the people my grandfather disliked dealing with, Liu Sanshui topped the list. I’d heard bits and pieces about his early years—how he once joined a group of tomb…

Nine Rings C07
by MarineTL — Chapter 7: The Strange Team With Fourth Brother not around, I locked the door from the inside and lay down on the bed, reflecting on everything that had happened today, especially that Nine-Ring Jade Casket. When Tian Yuqing asked me to take a closer look the second time, I did notice something I hadn't seen before. On the right side of the casket, there was a faint painting applied with a special kind of paint, which I hadn't noticed at first. I guessed it must be a unique paint that only becomes…

Nine Rings C39
by MarineTL — Chapter 39: The Thief I stared at the casket, frozen in the act of unzipping my backpack, and stayed that way for over half an hour. The auntie on the lower bunk kept glancing up at me, probably thinking I had some kind of problem. When I first saw the Jade Casket sitting untouched in my bag, I could hardly believe it. My mind instantly flashed back to all the terrifying things Tian Yuqing had said about its origins. But truth be told, I’d never taken those stories seriously. In this world, at least…

Nine Rings C71
by MarineTL — Chapter 71: Lu A'yao's Warning Of course I didn’t agree with what he said. The man wasn't even dead yet, and even if he were, I’d still want to bring him back and give him a proper burial. But Fourth Brother wasn’t joking. He was dead serious, trying to discuss it with me—or maybe he never intended to ask for my opinion at all. After all, everyone here listened to him. If he said to leave someone behind, who would dare disobey? When I didn’t respond, Fourth Brother asked, “You’re not…

Chapter
Nine Rings C103
by MarineTL — Chapter 103: Inside the Pagoda 1 The hook at the top of the pagoda kept making that hair-raising sound. After some thought, I decided to climb up and take a look, but these five flights of stairs were quite a challenge to navigate with only one good leg. Besides, ever since I had been bound by that mycelium, I felt as though I couldn't muster any strength in my body. I gripped the ladder and hauled myself upward. It was pitch black inside the stone pagoda. As I climbed, a faint sound of chanting…
