As soon as the cutscene ends, the location of the market will be marked on your map. Make your way to the market, which is located further inside and to the left of your current position.
3 Look around the Area

Check on Snow. She will be past the vendor and Zhiliu. While this objective is optional, it's possible to miss if you speak with the vendor and Zhiliu first.

Speak with the vendor Zhiliu is with. The proprietress will offer to pay for all your expenses in Huaxu.
4 First Day in Huaxu Quest look for Snow

Look for Snow
The Phoxhunter will be wondering where Snow has gone off to. Head straight and further to the left of the market to find Snow conversing with the Luno, Lunocarp.

Speak with Du Li
As soon as the cutscene ends, find Zhiliu's contact, Du Li, and speak with him. He will be standing in front of the grand archway, near the plaza. Du Li will inform Zhiliu of a matter she must attend to, so she bids you farewell. Lunocarp promised to walk you through the Nine Admonitions, rules that Zhiliu says are important for all newcomers in Huaxu to know.
7 First Day in Huaxu Quest go to the stele

Go to the Stele
Head to the stele, which will be marked on your map. Exit through the grand archway, turn left, and follow the path to reach the stele.

Speak with the Passing Merchant
Speak with Yusheng, the passing merchant, who will be nearby with a set of statues along the road. She will inform you that your attackers are not enforcers of Huaxu, but mindless and violent versions of them born from a malevolent entity.

This prompts Lunocarp to take you to the Argent Loong Temple to renew the incense that could protect the party from these Sable Bi'ans.
12 First Day in Huaxu Quest continue on to EverSpring

Continue on to EverSpring

Roars of the Bi'an

Roars of the Bi'an Objectives
1 Duet Night Abyss Roars of the Bi

Make Contact with the Black Marketeer
As soon as you exit the Tidesong Cavern, you will meet a trio of black marketeers. During a short cutscene, Snow will realize that both of you have lost the pendant you need in order to conduct business at the Haze Market. Because of this, the black marketeers will refuse to assist you.
2 Duet Night Abyss Roars of the Bi

See What Is Going On
Head straight toward the Haze Market where you and Snow will spot a commotion brewing in the distance. Follow the quest marker to the group of squabbling individuals to start a long cutscene between a black marketeer and a young woman whose father was tricked into a shady deal.

3 Duet Night Abyss Roars of the Bi

Check on the Wounded Girl
Go to the young girl and see how she is doing. During the conversation, the merchant will return to provoke the girl once more. After a brief back-and-forth between the merchant and the Phoxhunter, the merchant and his group of thugs will attack.
4 Duet Night Abyss Roars of the Bi

Teach the Black Marketeer a Lesson
Defeat the three Haze Market thugs. This battle will be quick and easy as the enemies are weak and a mysterious man will soon intervene to stop the fight. The man will introduce himself as Feng Qiang, assistant to an influential man named Mr. Qiu, who seems to know Zhiliu. Feng Qiang will smooth out the conflict and invite you to come up to Mr. Qiu's workplace for a private discussion.
5 Duet Night Abyss Roars of the Bi

Speak with Mr. Qiu
Follow the quest marker to the nearby shipwreck and into Mr. Qiu's office. Approach Mr. Qiu and talk to him to receive the Mechanical Nexus, the "special tool" needed to collect the Zhuyin Scales. You will also receive a white bamboo flute.
6 Duet Night Abyss Roars of the Bi

Return to Check on the Girl
Leave Mr. Qiu's office and follow the quest marker out of Haze Market. The marker will lead you along the beach next to the shipwreck.

Approach the injured young woman resting against a tree to start a cutscene where you will meet Fushu for the first time. Fushu will leave shortly after to find a proper cure for the young woman, leaving you free to move on and search for Master Gongshang.
7
Find Master Gongshang
Leave Haze Market and find Master Gongshang on an unnamed mountain near the shipwreck. Follow the marker to reach his location.

Duet Night Abyss Roars of the Bi

Prove Your Abilities to Master Gongshang
Master Gongshang will ask you to demonstrate your abilities to him. This will begin a brief tutorial on how to use the Mechanical Nexus.

Follow the in-game instructions to successfully equip the Mechanical Nexus using your Tactical Backpack.
Duet Night Abyss Roars of the Bi

Once equipped, speak to Master Gongshang again. He will teach you how to use the Mechanical Nexus by instructing you how to collect Taixu Runes, the golden stars found in the overworld that cannot be collected through normal means.

After successfully collecting the Taixu Runes, follow the quest marker to a chest covered in Gritblight a short distance away from where you found Master Gongshang.
8 Use the Mechanical Nexus to Neutralise Gritblight
Use the collection method you learned earlier to neutralize the Gritblight and open the chest. There will be 2 other objects covered in Gritblight. One of them is another chest you can open while the other one is a Geniemon.

Report back to Master Gongshang once you have cleared the Gritblight in the area.


9 Duet Night Abyss Roars of the Bi

Solve the Puzzle and Claim the Chest
Master Gongshang will then ask you to solve one last puzzle, a unique device that can be opened using the Mechanical Nexus. This puzzle is an easy solve; you only need to target the propeller in front of the structure and trigger the Mechanical Nexus to make it spin.

After successfully obtaining the chest, talk to Master Gongshang again. He will dub you an Honorary Learner of the Jishu Sect for your efforts and lead you to the Gritblight Expanse, where you can collect Zhuyin Scales.
10 Duet Night Abyss Roars of the Bi

Head Deeper into the Gritblight Expanse
Go past the cavern near Master Gongshang's final puzzle and find the winding path leading up to a giant tree. This will also unlock the Gritblight Expanse Avian Tower in the area.
11 Purify the Zhuyin Scales
In this location you'll find a Zhuyin Scale buried in Gritblight. Approach the Zhuyin Scale and use the Mechanical Nexus to clear away the Gritblight.
12 Duet Night Abyss Roars of the Bi

Fend off the Filthoids
The purified Zhuyin Scale will attract nearby enemies. Defeat 30 Sable Bi'an and Filthoids to safely collect the Zhuyin Scales. There will be a 1-minute timer for this battle, it will be easy to clear these low-level enemies.

Note that you won't be able to use ranged weapons with the Mechanical Nexus equipped. So unequip the Mechanical Nexus to use ranged weapons.
13 Duet Night Abyss Roars of the Bi

Harvest the Zhuyin Scales
After defeating the Sable Bi'an and Filthoids, interact with the Zhuyin Scale to harvest it. Obtaining the Zhuyin Scale will trigger another dreamlike sequence similar to the activation of the stele in the First Day in Huaxu subquest. Keep following the quest marker further into the Gritblight Expanse to finish the sequence.
Duet Night Abyss Roars of the Bi

When the sequence ends, the Phoxhunter will receive a vision of Filthoids and Sable Bi'an overwhelming EverSpring. Determined to prevent the disaster, you and Snow set off for EverSpring.
14 Duet Night Abyss Roars of the Bi

Clear the Area of Filthoids
The next objective will take you immediately to the outskirts of EverSpring where a group of Sable Bi'an and Filthoids will ambush you. Defeat them and run to the bridge to EverSpring.
15 Duet Night Abyss Roars of the Bi

Protect Yusheng from the Sable Bi'an
You will find that another group of Sable Bi'an have already reached the bridgewhere only one woman, Yusheng, stands between the enemies and the path to EverSpring. Help and protect Yusheng by defeating 8 of the Sable Bi'an .

When you have successfully cleared the area, talk to Yusheng. She will tell you to find Zhiliu and help the other guards defending EverSpring.
16 Duet Night Abyss Roars of the Bi

Find Zhiliu
Cross the stone bridge and run past the Huaxu soldiers to make your way up to Zhiliu in EverSpring. You will find her at the top of the hill receiving updates on the crisis and giving out orders.

Talk to Zhiliu after the brief cutscene. She will ask you to defend the front plaza by the Argent Loong Temple. Go down to the Argent Loong Temple at the base of the hill.
17 Duet Night Abyss Roars of the Bi

Repel the Sable Bi'an and Filthoids
Along with the 4 NPCs defending the plaza with you, defeat 40 of the Sable Bi'an and Filthoids that are pouring in. The battle should be as easy as all of your previous encounters with the Sable Bi'an, but be prepared for a relatively long fight.

After driving off 40 enemies, a cutscene will begin where the remaining Sable Bi'an are soundly defeated.
18 Duet Night Abyss Roars of the Bi

Speak with Zhiliu
Return to Zhiliu and talk to her. Snow will hand over the Zhuyin Scales and the Phoxhunter will tell Zhiliu about the vision warning them of the attack on EverSpring.

Zhiliu will dismiss your concerns and inform you that the condition of the injured girl from Haze Market seems to have worsened. She will instruct you to find Fushu at the Hall of Ephemerality.
19 Duet Night Abyss Roars of the Bi

Talk to Feng Qiang
Before leaving EverSpring, talk to Mr. Qiu's assistant Feng Qiang. He will inform you about a hunting expedition that Mr. Qiu wants the Phoxhunter to participate in. As the expedition was commissioned by Zhiliu, they agree to take on the request. Feng Qiang will leave you to consider your options shortly after.

At this point, you will be free to decide whether you want to meet up with Fushu or find Mr. Qiu. This will determine which quest you will play next.

DNA Reflections on the River of Forgetting Walkthrough Guide

When you enter the cavern you'll find three giant purple buds. The game will then show you how to clear these buds and rescue the second Wishen. Use the Mechanical Nexus to clear the foul buds.

Repel the Filthoids
After obtaining your reward, circle back out of the cave and toward the giant tree where the altar stands. Defeat the Filthoids that have congregated in the area.
8 DNA Reflections on the River of Forgetting Walkthrough Guide

14 Keep Moving Forward
DNA Reflections on the River of Forgetting Walkthrough Guide

There will be no map to use as a guide inside the Oblivion Rift. Moreover, be mindful that the hostile environment of the Oblivion Rift will drain your HP at a relatively rapid rate. You will fail the quest and start from the first checkpoint upon your entry into the Rift if your HP is fully depleted.
DNA Reflections on the River of Forgetting Walkthrough Guide

To progress through the area, simply press onward for the duration of this section. Make sure to avoid the water and run to the Lantern Blossoms to heal your HP and shield the Phoxhunter from the effects of the Rift.
15 Continue Moving Forward
Repel the Filthoids under the Lantern Blossom's Protection. You will run into Filthoids on your way forward. Fend them off while staying close to a Lantern Blossom to keep your HP up.

Find the First Providence Chime. After defeating the Filthoids, keep moving forward until you reach a familiar figure standing by a large chime. Talk to Berenica for a brief moment before interacting with a chime to open another path forward.
16 DNA Reflections on the River of Forgetting Walkthrough Guide

Cross the River of Forgetting
Ringing the Providence Chime will awaken the Lantern Blossoms ahead, allowing you to safely cross the River of Forgetting without losing HP.

Repel the Filthoids under the Lantern Blossom's Protection. Keep moving forward until you run into more Filthoids. Similar to the earlier encounter with enemies, stay close to the Lantern Blossoms to keep your HP up.
17 DNA Reflections on the River of Forgetting Walkthrough Guide

Ring the Second Providence Chime
There will be another familiar figure by the next Providence Chime. Talk to Psyche and ring the Providence Charm. Instead of Lantern Blossoms, a canoe will appear to allow you to cross the deep Waters of Forgetting.
18 Steer the Canoe
Jump onto the canoe and interact with it to start steering the canoe. For this portion, there is no actual steering involved; you only need to stay standing on the canoe as it will automatically bring you to one of the gates in the Oblivion Rift.

Once you reach the shore, run towards the gate to move on to the next part of the quest, where you will play through the journey out of Oblivion Rift as Fushu.
19 DNA Reflections on the River of Forgetting Walkthrough Guide

Repel More Filthoids. There will be a longer battle up ahead against 15 Filthoids. Defeat them while staying within range of any nearby Lantern Blossom.
DNA Reflections on the River of Forgetting Walkthrough Guide
Ring the Fourth Providence Chime. Go up to the Providence Chime to interact with it. The chime will fail to ring for Fushu, but the Wishen by her side will use its powers to activate the canoe.
21 DNA Reflections on the River of Forgetting Walkthrough Guide

Find a Way Out of the Oblivion Rift
Ride the canoe with the Wishen to make your way to the exit. Filthoids will appear on the water's surface to attack you. During this short battle, make sure that you stay on the canoe so as not to be affected by the Waters of Forgetting.

At this point, Fushu's Ultimate Attack will be locked. You may use her Combat Skill and the Exiled Thunderwyrm AoE beam to defeat the wave of enemies without accidentally leaving the canoe.
22 Clear the Path Forward with Fushu's Ultimate Skill
The canoe will stop at one point front of overgrown roots in the water. Use Fushu's Ultimate Skill to take out the roots and proceed to the exit. More Filthoids will attack you on the way. This time, you can use Fushu's Ultimate Skill on top of her Combat Skill and Ranged Weapon to easily defeat the oncoming enemies.
23 Ring the Last Providence Chime
Run toward the last Providence Chime to trigger a cutscene with Fufeng, Fushu's sister. Afterwards, ring the Providence Chime to activate the Lantern Blossoms leading you to the exit.

Note: Open the three chests in front of the bridge to receive additional rewards before leaving Oblivion Rift.
24

Leave the Cave and Solve the Puzzle
As Fushu, you and the Phoxhunter will find yourselves inside a cave after successfully leaving Oblivion Rift.

Follow the Luminous Jades to find your way out. On the way to the exit, you will hear the cries of a Wishen. Follow the sound to a Wishen floating by a waterfall. Fend off the Filthoids and save the Wishen.

It will enlist your help to find and rescue the rest of the Wishen that are trapped inside. The Wishen will then join you and provide an additional exploration mechanic. Use its powers like you would a Geniemon's support skill.

Use the Wishen's Support Skill to light the two Luminous Jades ahead and open a path forward.
25 DNA Reflections on the River of Forgetting Walkthrough Guide

Leave the Cavern and Speak with the Wishen Ahead
As soon as you exit the cavern, go to the group of Wishen floating near a wooden bridge and accompany them to the place where the other Wishen are trapped.
