Art of Resistance originates from Well of Heaven. Recent rumors speak of a Well of Heaven hero redistributing wealth in Qinghe. Find this hero for Inner Way clues. For his whereabouts, try asking Harvestfall Village's well-informed waiter San Qian'er.
Ask the waiter in Harvestfall Village's tavern for information about the Well of Heaven hero.
According to the clues provided by the waiter, find the Well of Heaven hero and ask for clues about the Inner Way.
The Well of Heaven hero has found no clues of Inner Ways, but disciple Zhang Yihao is constantly irked by the fact that his brethren have been cheated by Nine Mortal Ways. Perhaps you can help him solve his difficulty to get on his good side, then ask about the Inner Way clues.
