Only the passage on the very right remained unexplored of the three left, middle, and right ones.

Undoubtedly, the 'Hermit Canyon' is an extremely difficult map, the optimal solution before going there was to completely exploit the existing resources and enhance his power.
[Compared to the left and middle pathways, the right fork doesn't seem to have any special significance.]
[Do you want to enter the right passage, or leave the cave?]
[You step into the right passageway...]
[The passage is narrow and dark, winding and turning; as you go deeper, there is no other sound save for the footsteps on the limestone,]
[In the absolute quiet, only your footsteps echo, and you slowly start to feel uneasy. ]
Lin Xun is on guard at all times, wary of an unexpected appearance of the 'Underworld Shadow Demon'.
