Chapter 247: Fate Mountain

After flying along the river to check the source of Qi, Xuefeng's group was met with a dilemma. The river tunnel shrunk in size as the water flowed into a wall. They could either get wet and continue traveling with the flow of the river or give up on the treasures and return to their original path. 

"The compass is still pointing at the river. Does the Rat King know where it leads?" Xuefeng questioned while Yiren passed on the question. The Rat King immediately shook his head, making it clear they were on their own.
