There are two optional treasure chests with gear. The big one at the end, will grant you the Legendary Kusarigama Stone Heart.
After you enter the tomb, run down the dark tunnel. You will reach an area with three NPCs, who are also exploring the tomb and looking for treasures. You can take them out silently.
With the Double Assassinate passive from the Assassin Mastery path, and while wielding a Tanto, you can take both of these guys at the same time. This will be useful later on too.
After you take care of them, climb up the rocks on the right side. Hop onto the protruding rock spikes. Follow the tunnel and you will reach a lit area with an exploding barrel in front of a path that is blocked by stones. Throw a knife or shuriken at it to clear the path.
After you get to the next room, look up to your right. Climb up there and shoot the exploding barrel on the other side to unblock the path below. Then jump back down and slide through the crack in the stone wall.
In the large open area with the pond, you have a treasure chest to loot on your left-hand side. After that, hop onto the stone spikes and head up to the stone steps on the southeast side.
Turn east and slide down the hole. You will fall in a water pool. Exit through the north corridor into the next open space. Here, you will hear two NPCs talking below. Take them out. You can once again utilize Double Assassination.
Turn to the west. Explode the red barrel on the ledge, climb the rocks and prone to get through the newly revealed passage.
It will lead you to a room with a treasure chest. Loot it, blow up the entrance and get back to the previous room where you double-assassinated the two guys a moment ago.
While you are squeezing through the crack, you will spot the path forward – toward the ceramic statue, through the stone portal.
From there, head for the big treasure chest. You have some climbing to do to reach it. Blow up the barrel to reveal the passageway and head through it.
