      Nine Rings C72

      Nine Rings C72 Cover
      by MarineTL Chapter 72: Headless Bodhisattva If one day I become the leader of the Five Masters, the very first rule I’d hammer into the handbook of their descendants—right on the first page, bolded and centered with an exclamation mark—would be: “Speak clearly and finish your damn sentences!” From what I’ve seen of the Five Masters’ descendants so far, not a single one can properly explain anything. I honestly start to wonder if they all flunked language class as kids. Is it really that hard to say…

      Nine Rings C19

      Nine Rings C19 Cover
      by MarineTL Chapter 19: Burial Pit Lu A'yao walked back to me and handed me a bottle of water. He told me that the pulley had gotten stuck halfway down, causing several people to lose their grip while trying to fix it. Suddenly, the pulley started working again, and several people above stumbled, letting go of the rope, and I plummeted down. Thankfully, the rope attached to my harness was long enough, and halfway down, the buckle got caught in a crevice. Otherwise, I would have been seriously injured. Sitting on…

      Nine Rings C51

      Nine Rings C51 Cover
      by MarineTL Chapter 51: Muddy Waters I never expected to see Yu Jingzi under these circumstances. Her sudden appearance caught me completely off guard. I hid behind Xiao Wu, sneaking glances at their group taking shelter from the rain—there were a lot of them, at least a dozen. Four Hummers were parked in front of the restaurant. Yu Jingzi was dressed lightly—a black athletic jacket over a camisole that dipped almost to her chest. She walked in, found a seat, and began ordering food with her people. Compared…

      Nine Rings C30

      Nine Rings C30 Cover
      by MarineTL Chapter 30: Look Up and See All Beings He Yu sat down by the tomb wall, brushing dirt off his pants. “I told you this was pointless. If you’re going to leave a message, at least make it clear. Writing something cryptic like this is worse than writing nothing at all.” I was still mulling over the meaning of “Look up and see all beings.” The phrase itself wasn’t hard to translate, but using it in this context felt bizarre. I thought about it for a long time but couldn’t make sense of it, so I…

      Nine Rings C62

      Nine Rings C62 Cover
      by MarineTL Chapter 62: A Counterfeit Relic As soon as she finished speaking, I realized something was off. A logical person always has a focus when they speak, and Yu Jingzi was undoubtedly that type. She had said a lot, but every point she made stuck clearly in my mind. Also, this was the first time I’d ever heard of something called the "Wood-Returning Stone." Her emphasis leaned heavily toward that, unlike Hou Jinshan, who had clearly focused more on the Ghost Market Map itself. Why the difference? I was…

      Nine Rings C41

      Nine Rings C41 Cover
      by MarineTL Chapter 41: Another Version I thought for a moment, then quickly steered the conversation back. “Senior, from what you just said, does that mean you know the origin of this casket?” The old man coughed a few times, then suddenly lowered his voice. “It’s a long story. As of now, I’d say no more than three people in all of China know the true origin of this Nine-Ring Jade Casket. I only caught wind of it because of my previous line of work. Are you sure you want to hear it?” I was stunned. If…

      Nine Rings C73

      Nine Rings C73 Cover
      by MarineTL Chapter 73: The False Miracle The space inside the stone gate was vast, easily the size of two or three football fields. I couldn’t say for certain whether this was a side chamber or the main tomb chamber, but judging by its sheer scale, I decided to call it the Tomb Chamber for now. Beneath my feet lay piles of golden artifacts and gleaming jewels. Five bronze pillars stood in five different directions, their bases buried beneath golden sand. These pillars were crafted from the same material and…

      Nine Rings C20

      Nine Rings C20 Cover
      by MarineTL Chapter 20: The Terracotta Array It wasn't until I saw Tian Yuqing's reaction that I realized my sensitivity to danger was far too low. I was still wondering if this Tomb Raider had suffered severe injuries before dying here, but a little thought would tell you that couldn't be the case—there wasn't a single fatal wound on the body. I tightened the straps of my backpack and stood up alongside Tian Yuqing. He clearly had no interest in the Mummified Corpse on the ground anymore. "In ancient times,…
