Gu Cheng's expression was somewhat grave as well.
An ancient tomb from fifteen hundred years ago!
And an island tomb isolated far out at sea, at that!
Then there were the painted-face monsters, the Pig-faced Giant Bats, and that giant octopus they had only glimpsed...

Yin Nanfeng had once said that nearly ninety percent of the world's tombs had been emptied out. Almost all those left were great tombs with fearsome reputations. These great tombs were like the final
