Tomb Raiding: A Century-Old Clan, Beginning with the Old Nine Gates

Qin Chuan transmigrates into a Republic-era tomb-raiding world and obtains the Creature Compendium System.

Every time he completes an entry, he receives a reward: strange arts such as divining through mountain signs, consulting the heavens with fortune sticks, and summoning the Official General's Head.

When he opens his eyes, the world is...

In the mountains, corpses leap. In the woods, painted-skin demons lurk. A bone-white scholar and a fox spirit laugh.

The warriors of Faqiu and Mojin, and the tomb raiders of Banshan and Xieling, all display their prowess in a world of heroes and bandits.

The dynasty collapses, warlords rise, and evil spirits and filth grow unchecked. Unfathomable horrors lurk in the darkness.

Living a second life, Qin Chuan begins with the Old Nine Gates. Treading over the corpses of Huang Kui and Water Locusts, he carves out territory of his own and becomes a power to be reckoned with across the Three Xiang regions.

In the witch-haunted lands of western Hunan, he carries incense to guide the way, gathering the Four Sects, Nine Gates, and Eight Yin Veins to seek the most mysterious path to immortality, from ancient times to the present.

When the Yellow River bursts its banks, he leads his army north into the Central Plains, drinking wine as he discusses heroes and slaying every injustice in the mortal world.

He props up a crumbling edifice and turns back the tide when all seems lost.

When Qin Chuan looks back, his name as the Great Locust Chief resounds across the land, and all the regional lords and powers bow before him!
