There are4 trophies tied to the endings, along with additional trophies for the secret bosses, for all the achievement enthusiasts out there.
How to Get the Successor of the Bo Ending
The Early Secret Ending
The secret ending for the game is not difficult to work towards, but the bosses can certainly be a challenge for some players. For this ending, you must play through the game normally whileinteracting with the Red-Clad Lady on three different occasionsbefore the point of no return. The first time you’ll meet her is near the scaffolding area below theBuddha CliffsShrine, after yourtutorial fight with Bai Kru. After talking to her, progress through the region until you reachDoomwillow Beach, where you’ll find her standing next to a pulsating tree after you knock down the Corpse Tree.
After your two interactions with her, continue with the game until you reachMt. Zhenwuand make your way to theAvian DwellingShrine, which can be accessed by going down the ladder next to the bridge inside theRefugee Camp. The Red-Clad Lady will be standing next to the Avian Dwelling Shrine—select the “Agree” dialogue.
Afterthe point of no returnoccurs and you find yourself in the fourth region of the game, before interacting with the Shrine, you will meet the Storyteller again, and he will request that youdeal with Bo Magus. Here, you must select the “Refuse to Help” option, to which the game will give you one more chance to reconsider—but you have to select “Refuse” again. This locks you into theSuccessor of the Boending, and you will now have to defeat Bo Magus, who is accessible through theTang Emperor Palacepathway. After the boss fight is finished, watch the final cutscene unravel, and your playthrough will finish.
It is important to note that this is the only ending in the game that skips the fifth region,Bo Capital, along with the rest of the boss fights and questlines there.
How to Get the Jarful of Medicine Ending
TheJarful of Medicineis the least complex ending out of the bunch, as there is only one major dialogue choice to think about. After progressing through the fourth region of the game,Worship’s Rise in Ruins, you’ll find yourself in theReverant Temple, where you must go upstairs and make your way toward the path leading to theBurning Cavern. Along the path, you’ll come acrossXuanyangzi, who is sitting next to a tree and the Shrine. Talk to him, and you’ll be given two dialogue options. Selecting the “Hand over the Jade Feather Chisel” option will lock you into this ending.
After this interaction, continue playing the game until you reach the fifth and final region. From the Shrine,turn around and head down the spinal paththat leads to an elevator. Once you go down, you’ll enter a large area with a white glowing tree—this is where you must obtain the two halves of theSoulbird Shards. Upon using the shards, a bridge will form, leading to the final boss arena.Defeat the final bossand interact with the gate to trigger the final cutscene.
How to Get Bound by Fate’s Threads Ending
The Good Ending
TheBound by Fate’s Threadsending is very similar to the bad ending. However, when talking toXuanyangzinear the Burning Cavern Shrine, you need to select the “Remain Silent” option. After that, progress through the same path, and you can interact with the gate after the final boss fight for the good ending to take place.
How to Get the Dream’s Sweet Deceit Ending
The True Ending
The Dream’s Sweet Deceitis the most complex ending in the game, mainly because of how many NPC questlines are tied to it, and players must ideally not miss any interactions if they want to achieve it. A good way to check if there are possible encounters available is by going to theFast Travel menuand seeing if you canspot any gray NPC icons next to a shrine. Seeing these means you should talk to the NPC with the grayed-out portrait. If you have a habit of checking the travel menu after every boss, achieving this ending won’t be too complicated.
The main NPCs tied to the True Ending areFang Yao, who starts appearing in the last area ofCloudspire;He Youzai, who is available right after the tutorial fight; and theWhite-Robed Elder, found inside the first floor ofShu Sanctum. Throughout the game, there will be multiple interactions with these NPCs, and in some of them, they might ask for your help, to which your response should always be toAgree.
After completing all the necessary NPC interactions up to theReverant Templein the fourth region, head left from the Shrine. Here, you must follow these steps for the true ending:
With the key in hand, go to the final boss arena and defeat the final boss. Interact with the gate afterward to trigger the true ending of the game.
For players trying to go for all endings in one playthrough,they will need to complete all the major NPC questlinesandsave their data after reaching the fourth regionand before talking to theStorytellerthere. This will ensure that players don’t need to play through the game four different times to achieve all the trophies tied to the endings.
It’s important to note that if you have theRing of Samsaraon you, you can still acquire both the good and true endings bysaving the data right after the final boss—but be sure not to interact with the gate before the save is done. If you want the true ending, make sure the Causality Key is in your inventory when you interact with the gate, and consume the key if you want the good ending.
