The game’s clues
After Wang Qing became a martial arts master, he once passed the Adaptive Steel to those in the Northern Vow, so that they all had a better chance of staying alive. With the Northern Vow's defeat, the Inner Way made its way to Qinghe. It is said that Qi Sheng, the oddity merchant, might know a thing or two about it.
At Qi Sheng’s Qinghe Oddity exchange, unlock Melody of Virtue I. The direct prerequisite path spends 27 Oddities in total; side branches cost extra. This reward node requires Level 21.
