Nine Rings C170

by MarineTL — Chapter 170: Parting Ways I was completely baffled by his words. I looked up at the column-head bracket sets in the Spirit Path. These architectural elements weren't commonly used in tomb passages; they were more typical of palaces. The designer had likely incorporated them into the Spirit Path to provide a robust structural barrier, offering significant support. However, I soon realized that I had never seen this particular style of bracket set before. Every joint and connection was unusual, and the…

Nine Rings C17

by MarineTL — Chapter 17: The Eccentric The tradition of the Record Keeper of the Heard has been passed down through the ages, branching into various sects over time. The He family remains steadfast in their adherence to the old ways. Traditional Record Keepers of the Heard hold a distinctly martial worldview, forbidding their direct descendants from pursuing official positions or high-level clerical work. As a direct descendant of the great-grandson generation, He Yu was naturally barred from such professions. From a…

Nine Rings C169

by MarineTL — Chapter 169: Master Jiyun's Ominous Tomb? "Master Jiyun? Why does that name sound so familiar?" He Yu stared up at the sky, looking like he was thinking hard. After a long moment, he let out a sudden "Oh!" of realization. "I remember now! He's that Feng Shui master!" I noticed that after I voiced my suspicion, Lu Ayao fell into a rare silence. I had a strong premonition that if the records in the Lu Family Ancestral Hall were the only things proving Master Jiyun's historical existence, then Lu Ayao's…

Nine Rings C168

by MarineTL — Chapter 168: The Ancient Corpse's Waist Token He Yu let out a confused "Huh?", but Lu Ayao's expression remained dead serious, without a hint of a joke in his voice. The two of them stood there, staring at each other in a silent standoff for a long time. In a rare moment of explanation, Lu Ayao said, "I can use the compass to set our direction. If we're fast enough, we should be able to lose them. But judging by the size of that Tomb-guarding Beast outside, this tomb is massive. It's likely a long…

Nine Rings C167

by MarineTL — Chapter 167: Wrapped Ancient Corpses As he spoke, I began to survey our surroundings. This was a new Side Chamber, more than twice the size of the previous one with the caisson ceiling and the tortoise, but the ceiling was relatively low. I wasn't sure why it had been designed that way. We sat in a corner of the Side Chamber, leaning against the wall. The stone here wasn't as damp as before. I guessed we were deeper inside now, and this was likely just a simple storage area for funerary objects, as…

Nine Rings C166

by MarineTL — Chapter 166: Layers of Illusion But this time, the situation was different from before. My consciousness only wavered for a fleeting moment before I snapped back to clarity. My flashlight lay beside me, and I was lying alone on a large rock, half-submerged in water. Looking up, I could see the giant turtle poking its head out from the caisson ceiling. This was the side chamber where Bai Shenxian had dived and left from at the very beginning. It felt incredibly real. I could even smell the…

Nine Rings C165

by MarineTL — Chapter 165: The White Corpse Turtle Immortal Hearing those words, I felt the hair on my arms stand on end. No matter how I interpreted that sentence, it felt incredibly bizarre. It was clearly a statement of foresight. There was no way the news of me learning the Art of Mechanisms could have reached the Tian Family—at least, that was what I believed at the time. But how did Tian Xiao know? How could he be so certain that I would eventually learn the Art of Mechanisms? Had my grandfather…

Nine Rings C164

by MarineTL — Chapter 164: The One Who Set the Trap As I walked further, I soon saw a sign that instantly calmed my simmering rage. It stood in the middle of the path, bearing several large characters: "DANGER AREA, NO ENTRY." I adjusted my flashlight to its maximum brightness, shining it on the doors and windows behind the sign. In this so-called "danger area," the doors and windows remained wide open. Test tubes and glass shards were scattered across the adjacent corridor. It was unclear what this place had once…
