How to Master Tai Chi in Wuchang: Fallen Feathers

by

In the expansive and intricately linked universe of the game “Wuchang: Fallen Feathers“, players can stumble upon numerous additional tasks and hidden mysteries. These include various brain-teasing puzzles, such as the Benediction Gates that offer two different solutions. Much like many games in the soulslike genre, “Wuchang” doesn’t always make its rules clear, which might lead players to feel a bit perplexed when they come across instructions that are subtly hinting at their next actions without providing explicit guidance.

In this scenario, a common puzzle type is often found close to radiant blue sanctuaries, one of which provides the instruction: “Achieve proficiency in Tai Chi to unlock the Ancient Deity’s Knowledge.” Here’s how players can complete these tasks to receive a prize.

These types of puzzles are typically solved by using a specific pose.

Tai Chi Shrine Puzzle Location in Wuchang: Fallen Feathers

In the bustling city of Wuchang, the Tai Chi puzzle isn’t hard to find. Nestled within a snug cave passageway, this enigma serves as the entry point to the Cloudspire region for players who have completed their tasks at Worship’s Rise. To access this destination, one must traverse from the Reverent Temple Shrine by ascending the stairs, opening the gate on the left using the Reverent Temple Key, which is earned by overcoming Commander Honglan. The puzzle can be seen clearly from a distance due to its distinctive blue illumination that shines from various angles, and it stands proudly atop a cliff edge offering a breathtaking view.

If players fail to reach the spot initially while passing through, they can still get there by retracting their steps from the Hillswatch Shrine in Cloudspire and using the elevator. No matter how you navigate towards it, be wary as a formidable enemy lies in wait to surprise the players close to the radiant shrine.

How to Master Tai Chi in Wuchang: Fallen Feathers

At this stage in “Wuchang: Fallen Feathers”, some players might have noticed the solution for several pose puzzles near glowing blue shrines, particularly if they didn’t skip the first two similar challenges – paying tribute to the God of Shu’s statue and looking out towards the horizon to rejoin Faces of the Past in Worship’s Rise. The secret once more lies in performing a suitable pose from the emote selection, which can be brought up by pressing:

  • Left side of the touchpad on PS5
  • View button on Xbox Series X/S
  • Y key on PC

In contrast to the Tai Chi puzzle at the first two shrines, the solution isn’t immediately visible in the emote menu for the shrine in Wuchang. Instead, players need to actively change one of their available poses into the “Tai Chi pose” using the “Replace” input, assign it, and then enact this move in front of the shrine. A confirmation of success will come through an audio cue, a text response, and a message stating that an item has been collected.

Reward for Mastering Tai Chi to Grasp the Primordial Deity’s Wisdom

After choosing and executing the Tai Chi stance next to the blue sanctuary within the cave, players will be granted a single Red Mercury Essence as compensation. This item isn’t visible in their inventory but is crucial for enhancing skills and attributes. Later on, players can employ the Red Mercury Essence at any shrine through the Impetus Repository skill branch to unlock an extra node in either character or weapon proficiency development.
