Unlock All Boundary Stones

Boundary Stones
The fastest way to get Exploration Points is to unlock all Boundary Stones. They give 50 Exploration Points each, and almost every single one is accessible right from the start. This will also make getting around the region a lot easier when traveling to certain locations.

Complete Meow Meow Challenges

Meow Meow
Another quick way to gain Exploration Points is to complete Meow Meow Puzzles, particularly those with the red sword indicators. These are fairly easy challenges that you can finish in less than a minute and grant you 30 Exploration Points. Other Meow Meow challenges or puzzles will give you less, but they are still worth doing if you come across them.

Participate in NPC Minigames or Quest

Interact with NPCs
A lot of NPC-related activities, such as healing illnesses, competing in Pitch Pot, playing music, or participating in fishing contests, can give you more than 10 Exploration Points each. These are fairly easy to complete, especially if you have a high Career level or are already used to the minigames.

All Sentient Beings Map

Open Every Chest You Encounter

Opening treasure chests is also a great way to farm Exploration Points, as there are hundreds of chests in the open world. Depending on its size, each chest can grant from 3 to about 20 Exploration Points.

Complete Side Quests

Jianghu Legacies

Completing side quests, such as Jianghu Legacies, Worldly Affairs, and Exploration Quests, can often give you the most Exploration Points, sometimes upwards of 100 points, but they are also the most time-consuming to do. They are still worth doing, as these quests will also reward you with useful skills and items on your journey.

List of Side Quests

Do Main Quests to Get Access to Hidden Chests

The main storyline grants few exploration points and they take a long time to complete. However, they are still worth doing, as they eventually lead you to discovering hidden treasure chests and new side quests that give a greater amount of exploration points.

Story Walkthrough and List of Chapters

Defeat Bosses for the First Time

Defeating Campaign Bosses for the first time grants 100 Exploration Points each, making them a good source of these points. Meanwhile, defeating World Bosses grants 50 Exploration Points. World Bosses are a bit harder, but you can always tackle them in multiplayer.

List of All Bosses

Complete Outposts for the First Time

Completing different Outposts for the first time will give you 20 Exploration Points each. One quick tip in clearing outposts in Qighe is to get the Veil of Stillness Mystic Skill to sneak around and trigger explosive barrels scattered around the area easier.

All Outpost Locations and Map

Gather Oddities You Come Across

Oddities are a decent choice for farming Exploration Points. Although they only give 3 Exploration Points each, there are many Oddities in the game, and collecting them takes less than a minute each. You can just gather them as you explore, and the points you obtain from them will eventually add up.

What Are Exploration Points?

Level Based on Location

Exploration Points
Exploration Points are the rewards for completing select quests, especially the Jianghu Legacy. It signifies the level of the player in the specific area. Some

Take note that the exploration of a specific region is only for that specific place. This means that Qinghe has its own exploration points separate from the one for Kaifeng.
