After you encounter a World Boss once, you unlock free practice against them in start menu → Wandering Paths → Trials → World Boss (Qinghe/Kaifeng). Use this feature to get some practice against the boss’s mechanics without wasting any resources like healing pots and gear durability.
Puppeteer – Sheng Wu (Overture) Location
Puppeteer – Sheng Wu (Overture) can be found south of the Wayfarer in Verdant Wilds, in the eastern part of Qinghe. This location is directly west of the Bamboo Abode, the area where players first start their journey in Where Winds Meet.
Sleeping Daoist Location
The Sleeping Daoist can be found resting on a tree branch, just west of the Path of Karma in Qinghe’s Sundara Land at the very top of the Jadebrook Mountin.
Snake Doctor Location
The Snake Doctor is found in an underground arena in the southeastern part of Qinghe, southwest of the Back Mountain Teleport point. The only way to reach him is to go through a nearby cave that leads to the underground arena (entrance shown in screenshot above).
The cave entrance leads down to a pit of snakes that will insta-kill you if you’re caught unawares. To bypass this obstacle, talk to the Silver Needle Disciple Sun Yutang standing just outside the cave’s entrance. He will give you a “Damaged Manuscript,” which is a map that can be used to obtain the Snake King’s Bone, an item that makes you immune to snakes.
The map points to three Snake King Bone Shards located in the area nearby. Follow the map and activate your Wind Sense (V) to locate areas crawling with snakes. In each snake pit, a large snake (shown in gold outline when using Wind Sense) can be found guarding a chest. Use Celestial Seize to grab the contents of these chests from a safe distance.
Once you have all three Snake King Bone Shards, bring them back to the Silver Needle Disciple, and he will combine them into a Snake King Bone for you. With this item in your inventory, you will not need to worry about the snakes in the pit and will be able to easily walk up to the Snake Doctor boss arena.
Puppeteer – Sheng Wu (Curtaincall) Location
Puppeteer – Sheng Wu (Curtaincall) can be fought at the island with red flowers off the northern coast of Qinghe. Note that Puppeteer – Sheng Wu (Curtaincall) and Puppeteer – Sheng Wu (Overture) have different movesets and abilities, though they both share the same name.
Yi Dao Location
After defeating Qianye in Chapter One: Heaven Has No Pier, head to the location shown in the map above to locate a sword underneath a tree. Interact with it, and you’ll be taken to Dreamscape: Blissful Retreat. Follow the quest markers in the Dream of Flames Lost Chapter quest here to reach Yi Dao.
You can leave the Dreamscape Blissful Retreat map by clicking on the bottom-left icon on the map screen and choosing Qinghe/Kaifeng. You can return the same way as well.
Yi Dao is the only World Boss you cannot unlock a Practice version of after encountering him in Where Winds Meet.
Earth Fiend Diety Location
Earth Fiend Diety is found between the Gleaming Abyss and the Bell of Demoncalm in the Moonveil region of Qinghe in Where Winds Meet.
Twin Lions Location
Head to the southernmost part of the Kaifeng region to find Gracetown. Enter the large courtyard in the middle of the town and look for a Lion Dancer putting on a show. Approach it to trigger the boss fight.
Ghost Master Location
Ghost Master can be found on the eastern edge of Mistveil Forest in the Kaifeng region. This region is covered by a thick layer of poisonous fog that will instantly kill the player if they enter it. The only way to access the Ghost Master is to first clear the fog by completing The Ephemeral Blight mission. All details on how to lift the fog from Mistveil Forest can be found here.
Once the fog is lifted, head to the location marked on the map above to reach the Ghost Master.
Wolf Maiden Location
The Wolf Maiden can be found in the southernmost part of the Kaifeng map in Where Winds Meet at night. Head to the location shown on the map above and wait for nighttime (Xu hour), and the Wolf Maiden will appear.
The Wolf Maiden boss fight occurs in a special instance. In order to leave, click on the Door icon at the top of the screen to exit the scenario.
