How to Find the Spirit Sword

1
Castle Front to Cerulean Coast
From the Castle Front site of grace, ride southeast past the small encampment until you see soldiers fighting a bunch of Bloodfiends. Take the left path on this fork and loop around the swamp into a tunnel where you'll find the Ellac River Cave site of grace.

Turn left on the river and follow its direction to the Ellac River Downstream. Further to the south is an open field with a Furnace Golem. Stay on the right side while avoiding the Furnace Golem's attacks to find a slightly hidden path to the Cerulean Coast.

finding the Spirit Sword from the Cerulean Coast
Head west and make for the edge of the area until you see the Cerulean Coast West site of grace. From here, go through the valley to the northeast and when you run into a fork with a demi-human swordsman, turn right and make for the graveyard at the end.

Spirit Sword location
The Spirit Sword will be on a corpse at the base of the stacked tombstones to the right. Though they're not much of a challenge, be aware that there are more demi-humans that can ambush you in this area.
