Nine Rings C125
by MarineTL — Chapter 125: Eighteenth Floor Buddhist Pagoda "We wandered in the maze for a long time. Eventually, we had no choice but to use detonators, hoping to blast our way out bit by bit. We didn't expect the path we blew open to be covered in saltpeter. The first blast triggered a chain reaction, causing countless explosions. Almost all our people were lost inside. Only a few of us managed to crawl out." We stood in the stone passage listening to Han Jian. I suddenly began to understand the message someone…

Nine Rings C126
by MarineTL — Chapter 126: Getting on the Bridge Seeing the three of us just standing there, Han Jian quickly came out from behind us. I felt that regardless of whether our idea was feasible, we needed to loop Han Jian in so we could adjust the plan together. Lu Ayao clearly had the same thought, because as soon as Han Jian walked over, Lu Ayao laid out everything we had come up with so far. The platform was large. While they were talking, I stepped to the side to find a better angle for my flashlight. Staring at…

Nine Rings C118
by MarineTL — Chapter 118: A Good Meal I didn't say anything. Chen Canghai uncharacteristically crawled over from the other end, having clearly overheard our conversation. "I don't know what happened between you all," he said, "but under the current circumstances, we'd better try not to harbor too many suspicions. Once he wakes up, we can always just ask him then." Chen Canghai's words actually cleared up the knot I hadn't been able to untie. I sat cross-legged in the cave, looking at the cut on my…

Nine Rings C119
by MarineTL — Chapter 119: Lotus Bodhisattva Seeing that he was awake, I crawled over. Lu Ayao was leaning against the deepest part of the tomb robber's tunnel. This tunnel was only a small section leading to the waterway below. When I first entered, I noticed a shovel head lying near Lu Ayao's backpack, but the thing was completely ruined. I suspected he had dug this section of the tunnel himself, working from the bottom up. He had rested for two hours. We had applied anti-inflammatory medicine to his wounds, and…

Nine Rings C120
by MarineTL — Chapter 120: Wu Taisui Despite what he said, I still found it strange. This underground palace was a relic of the Shang-Zhou period, meaning those Lotus Bodhisattvas must have been here for at least three thousand years. If Jiang Qiaozi merely worshipping them affected his children, what would happen to Lu Ayao after he blew them up with explosives? On second thought, if the curse only manifested in the next generation, Lu Ayao didn't have much to fear for now. As long as he didn't get married or…

Nine Rings C121
by MarineTL — Chapter 121: Black Taisui - 2 "N-no, what's wrong? Is th-there a problem?" I felt a chill down my spine as the three of them stared at me. After a moment of silence, He Yu tugged at Lu Ayao. "Alright, alright, let's stop the damn guessing. No matter how dire the situation was, the point is that Xiao Yao survived. That's the best outcome, right?" His words left me completely in the dark. Once Lu Ayao let go, I quickly pulled my sleeves back down. These guys had overactive imaginations—who knew…

Chapter
Nine Rings C122
by MarineTL — Chapter 122: The Lu Clan's Curse I had a hunch. According to what Tian Xiaoqi said, they were all carried into this underground palace by the water. If that was the case, had Han Jian's people already reached the area we were in now? Were they heading straight for the core along the waterway? That would explain why they sent a warning over the walkie-talkie. If this passage connected to the pool of stagnant water beneath the stone pillars, did they also encounter the stones Lu Ayao mentioned—the…

Chapter
Nine Rings C123
by MarineTL — Chapter 123: Stone After that, I forced myself to sleep for half an hour. When He Yu woke up, he moved with large, abrupt movements. The robber tunnel was too cramped, and he had probably twisted something in his sleep, so the moment he woke, he gave a massive stretch, accidentally bumping the flashlight beside his hand. The sudden light woke me instantly. Looking back, I saw Chen Canghai sit up as well. He seemed to be a light sleeper, waking at the slightest sound. Young-looking with an innocent…
