| 5 | ![]() On the far corner of the area are stone steps leading up behind several houses surrounding a well, and the eighth and ninth yokai. |
| 6 | ![]() Go back down the first set of stone steps and rafters when entering Maisaka Post and go to the large house on the north side of town. The tenth yokai and source of the Dark Realm will be inside. |

| # | Walkthrough |
|---|---|
| 1 | ![]() The Haunting Caves is located on the southern end of Maisaka, with the entrance located in between large jagged rocks facing the water. |
| 2 | ![]() Following the path from the entrance will lead you to a shrine and the path veering right. |
| 3 | Keep following the path past a group of Sudama and a hole you need to crouch to get through. Past this hole, the path starts inclining downward into a cavern full of stalagmites and stalactites. |
| 4 | ![]() Head down the leftmost path and keep sticking to the left until you get to a brightly lit cavern. Be careful of the yokai along the way. |
| 5 | ![]() Get across the area and straight past a campfire surrounded by mud yokai. There will be a ledge to the right you can jump across to get to the other side. |
| 6 | ![]() Turn left and look for the glowing, blue ledges you can use to go up along the path. Watch out for the yokai in the area, some of which can paralyze you briefly! |
| 7 | ![]() Jump over the ledges and two wooden platforms, with the path splitting to more upward ledges and a gap in the wall. Turn right at the stone wall to get to a shrine. |
| 8 | ![]() You can go down the green pools on the other side of the ledge from the shrine to the lower level, shallow waters. Then, go up the glowing, blue pool terraces on the other side and down the path to the right. |
| 9 | ![]() The path leads right to a third shrine. Past this shrine is the path into the boss arena for Hino-enma. |
| 10 | ![]() Defeat Hino-enma to proceed. This boss can fly and is fond of aerial attacks. It's best to interrupt the Red Attacks with Style Shift if you can, to stun Hino-enma. |
| 11 | ![]() After defeating Hino-enma, head to the northside of the arena and go up the path to find the missing group of Sudama. They will be in front of a fourth shrine. |
| 12 | Fast Travel to Maisaka Post and talk to Honda Tadakatsu to complete the mission. |
