Snake's Reflection Walkthrough (Chapter 4) Part 1 - Phantom Blade Zero

Snake's Reflection Summary Part 1

Soul reaches a new area. He travels the main road to get to Pangzhen, but his plans get derailed.

Snake's Reflection Walkthrough Part 1

[1] Meet the Illusion of Inanis.

You wake up in the Crimson Forest, and another day has passed. Climb up and follow the path to talk to the illusion of Lady Inanis.

Interact with the Crane Bell to go into the memory.

After the cut scene, interact with the blue flower. The Memory Flower will show you echoes of the past and raise your HP if you collect enough of them.

NOTE: In this instance, you only need 1 to get your HP up!

[2] Travel to the bridge.

At the fork, turn left towards the lake. If you go right, you can collect some books by the empty camp.

There will be enemies down there. After you take care of them, go up the stairs with the torii: A traditional Japanese gate at a Shinto Shrine.

Keep pressing on the main road. You will encounter a few collectibles and 2 bells.

[3] Defeat Hua Qianxiao.

At the bridge, you will meet a sword fanatic, Hua Qianxiao. Defeat him. He has a lot of wide and long-ranged attacks. He can also heal himself by drinking alcohol, but that moment is also an opportunity to stagger him with something like the Dread Axe.

Beating him will give you the weapon, The Fanatic's Broken Blade. It enables you to do ranged attacks with the sword while you are drunk.

[4] Find another way to Pangzhen.

Try to cross the bridge. It will break and lead you to its structure below.

Swing to the other side.

Keep on the path and proceed forward.

A trapped man in a cage calls out to you for help. He has some information about going to Pangzhen. If you want to help him, you have to use a crank in a nearby cave. Rescuing him leads to the Side Quest, The Wily Hare's Three Dens.

[5] Make your way to the Village of Lu.

Go down the road and past the bridge. Get to the Outlaw Trap Bell. Nearby, there is an underground cave you can explore and gather collectibles from. It leads to a building that stands above the lake near the Crimson Forest Bell from where you initially entered.

If you don't plan to explore, get ready for a boss battle.

[6] Defeat Jing Ye, the Outlaw.

Go across the gap of land from the Outlaw Trap Bell. You will meet Jing Ye right away. He attacks while on horseback and can attack from a distance with both using his horse to get closer and using homing projectiles.

At 60% health, Jing Ye will come down from his horse. You can use your Dread Axe to stun him when his stagger bar glows blue. Beating him will give you the weapon, Outlaw Warblade.
