Volume III: Ephemeral Glory
Participation Requirements
Enter the Hidden Mountain Journal to view Jianghu Legacy details.
Jianghu Legacy Overview
Volume III: Ephemeral Glory. In the southwestern reaches of Hidden Mountain lie the ruins of the Old Mohist City. When the wind stirs its bronze bells, strange omens appear, and ancient voices are said to linger still. Now you tread this forgotten ground, pushing through brambles, tracing broken steles, hearing the old city speak. Through the ringing bells, you may glimpse a thousand years of Mohist history. Completing this Jianghu Legacy grants rewards such as [Medicinal Tales] and [Echo Jade].
New Martial Art: Bamboocut - Draught
Acquisition Methods
After defeating [Jiu Qiansui] in the Hidden Mountain Martial Fellowship and hearing his full story, you will obtain the Gauntlets Martial Art [Skystrike Gauntlets]. After completing the Qinghe Jianghu Legacy [Echoes of Old Battles] and hearing Li Yangui recount the past, you will obtain the Dual Blades Martial Art [Riven Twinblades].
Martial Art Introduction
After September 3, 2026 at 05:00, the new Martial Art Path [Bamboocut - Draught] debuts, along with its Gauntlets Martial Art [Skystrike Gauntlets] and Dual Blades Martial Art [Riven Twinblades]. [Skystrike Gauntlets] is bold and unrestrained: fists coil like a roaming dragon, steps sway like a drunken crane, cutting through enemy lines with overwhelming force. [Riven Twinblades] flows in an unbroken stream, as if it could sever water itself. Though different in origin, both arts fuse drunken abandon, relentless assault, and nimble adaptability into one. They shine especially in [Boss Battles] and [Arena Mode]. Wanderers may also pair them freely with other martial arts and mystic skills to unlock their full potential.
Martial Art Intro
- Added the new Path [Bamboocut - Draught], including the new Gauntlets Martial Art [Skystrike Gauntlets] and the new Dual Blades Martial Art [Riven Twinblades].

Chest], including any chests obtained before the update. Wanderers may also buy 10 [Mistwing: Note] at once from the Hidden Mountain [Pangolin Peddler: Top-Seller Shop].

- Added the [Bamboocut - Draught] sets [Tiltrim] and [Brimflow], now included in all tiers of [Gear Custom Chests], including chests obtained before the update. The new [Tiltrim] and [Brimflow] sets can be obtained by challenging the Qinghe Campaign [Bodhi Sea] (the original [Jadeware] and [Formbend] sets can still be obtained by challenging the Qinghe Campaign [Palace of Annals]). The [Brimflow] greaves can also be obtained by challenging the Qinghe Campaign [Halo Peak].
- Added [Bamboocut - Draught] Path attuning. Gear of all tiers can select the corresponding [Attuning Library] after completing [Tune].
