You sprint along the tunnel, away from the thunderous noise, and as you run you feel the temperature in this dusty passageway steadily rising. You veer around a shallow bend and see a junction less than a hundred yards ahead where another tunnel meets this one from the right.

Drawing on your reserves of strength and stamina, you fix your eyes on the distant junction and race towards it as fast as you can.

If you possess Kai-alchemy and have attained the Kai rank of Grand Crown or higher, turn to 298.
