The Last Tomb Raider
By Blackstone
Yan Yunqing is a fraud. By day, he cons tourists on a sacred mountain, a cynical charlatan peddling fake Daoist wisdom to survive. But when a ghost from his past—a swaggering, reckless childhood friend—drags him into the perilous world of tomb raiding, Yan’s carefully constructed charade shatters. Forced to confront the shadows he’s spent years denying, he must dust off the ancient, terrifying arts of his ancestors. Joined by his two brothers—a hot-headed geomancy prodigy and a stoic ex-soldier with a talent for unmaking deadly traps—Yan plunges into the earth’s hidden depths. They seek treasure, but find horrors that defy sanity: thousand-year-old undead generals, soul-consuming wraiths, and curses that rewrite reality. Each descent reveals another layer of Yan's mysterious power and the true weight of his lineage as a Celestial Official Daoist. But as they stumble upon a conspiracy that links ancient emperors to a shadowy government agency, Yan realizes his charade was never about survival—it was about hiding from a destiny that’s finally caught up to him. In a world where myths are real and history is hungry, can a fake priest become the shield against the darkness? Or will the tombs he desecrates claim his soul first?
