The Grave Robbers' Chronicles: The Celestial Palace on the Clouds

Hidden deep in the Changbai Mountains, the Cloud Palace holds the last secret of the Dongxia Dynasty. Wu Xie, Pangzi, and the mysterious Zhang Qiling venture into this frozen wasteland in search of the truth, unaware that they face more than the coffin of King Wannu and the bizarre Snow Maitreya. A conspiracy spanning a thousand years is waiting for them. The Snake-Eyebrowed Copper Fish pieces together Wang Canghai’s message, while a brood that devours souls lurks behind the Bronze Gate and the shadow of a third-party force follows them at every turn. From the maze of the Hanging Soul Ladder to the corpse beetles in the sacrificial pit, from the tomb guardians’ curse to the whispers of “It,” every step lands on the bones of those who came before. Zhang Qiling’s past gradually comes to light, and the promise of their ten-year pact settles amid wind and snow. In the end, they will understand that what lies beyond the Bronze Gate is not eternal life, but bonds worth protecting with their lives. This is an adventure about obsession and sacrifice. Tempered by ice and blood, three men’s fates are bound fast to the storms of Changbai Mountain. They will wait ten years in exchange for a lifetime together.
