Enter the Hallway Opposite of the Barred Area

Where Winds Meet - An Unholy Prophecy Fight the Guards
Enter the hallway opposite the barred area and follow the path, where you’ll encounter and fight a few guards.

Strike the Bell and Use Meridian Touch on Knocker

You’ll find a jade bell and a locked door ahead. Strike the jade bell, then use Meridian Touch immediately on the knocker to unlock the door. Note that you must do it quickly or you'll have to start over again.

Fight the Guards in the Arsenal Hall

Where Winds Meet - An Unholy Prophecy Grand Arsenal Hall
You’ll enter a grand arsenal hall lined with suits of armor where three enemies await. Prioritize the banner-bearer first; he heals his allies, so taking him out makes the fight much easier.

Head to Either Left or Right Wing of the Hall


Examine the set of armor missing its weapons. To recover them, head to either the left or right wing of the hall. You'll need to collect weapons from both sides. The left wing is easier, so it's recommended to start there.

Retrieve the Long Weapon from the Left Wing

9.1
Proceed to the left wing of the Grand Arsenal Hall and defeat the guards. Just to the left of the entrance, take the stairs down.
9.2
You’ll enter a hall with two sets of spike traps slamming from the walls. Time your movements carefully: when a spike starts to withdraw, dash forward with the dodge button to slip through. Getting hit by the spikes will deplete your health and force you to start the section over.
9.3
Pull the lever at the end of the hall. Mercenary guards will start chasing you, but pulling the lever again will activate the spikes and take them out.
9.4
You’ll encounter another jade bell and door knocker. As before, strike the jade bell and immediately use Meridian Touch on the knocker to unlock the door.
9.5
You'll find a lone guard protecting a spear in this chamber. Eliminate the guard, collect the spear, and then proceed to the next area.
9.6
There's a chamber ahead with a pit full of spike traps. Jump across the platforms until you reach the next hallway. Falling means instant death.
9.7 Proceed into the chamber and take the spear. Continue forward to another hallway with two sets of moving wall spikes - these are faster than the earlier ones, so you’ll need to time your movement carefully and dash quickly with the dodge button to get through safely.
9.8 Continue forward to reach the passage that leads you back to the Grand Arsenal Hall with the armor displays. Interact with the armor set missing its weapons and select "Long Weapon Returned" to place the spear back where it belongs.

Retrieve the Short Weapon from the Right Wing

10.1
Proceed to the right wing of the Grand Arsenal Hall and defeat the guard. Just to the left of the entrance, take the stairs down. You’ll encounter more spike traps here, but this time the spikes drop from above. The second set requires more careful timing - don’t dash through it; instead, walk forward at the right moment to avoid being struck.
10.2
Pull the lever, then continue, where another jade bell and knocker puzzle awaits. As before, strike the bell and immediately use Meridian Touch on the knocker to open the door.
10.3
Enter the next room, where a guard with a shield awaits. If you can't assassinate him in a single strike, use Tai Chi to break his guard. After defeating him, then take the sword from its display afterward.

10.4
You’ll enter another circular chamber with a spiked pit. Jump carefully across the platforms to reach the other side, collect the final weapon, and continue onward.
10.5
You'll encounter another narrow hallway with spike traps falling from above. Instead of dashing, carefully time your movements. As soon as the spike trap retracts, crouch and move forward, not stopping until you reach the end, then pull the lever.
10.6
Complete the jade bell and door knocker puzzle, then continue until you return to the Grand Arsenal Hall. Interact with the suit of armor missing its weapons and select Short Weapon Returned. If you have collected both missing weapons, a short cutscene will play.

Enter the Revealed Door and Venture Deeper

Where Winds Meet - An Unholy Prophecy Venturing Deeper
After returning both the Long and Short Weapons to the suit of armor, a scene will unfold revealing a doorway, enter it to continue

Jump to Safety to Escape the Rising Spiked Floor

You'll enter another circular chamber with a spiked pit below. This time, as soon as you start jumping on the platforms, the floor begins to rise - jump quickly and make it to the hallway before the spikes catch you. It's instant death.

Defeat Shi Zhen and His Minions

Where Winds Meet - An Unholy Prophecy Boss Fight Shi Zhen
In the final chamber, open the chest and prepare to fight the boss, Shi Zhen, along with four guards. Focus on defeating the adds first, then take down Shi Zhen. After the battle, watch the cutscene and claim the chest.

Meet with the Mysterious Painter

Where Winds Meet - Speak with the Painter Again
Follow the quest marker to exit the area, then speak with the Mysterious Painter one last time to complete the quest.
