Players will first learn of the Mortal Blade’s existence after travelling to Ashina Castle and besting the formidable Genichiro in the Castle Tower Lookout. As such, those looking to grab the Mortal Blade will first need to visit Ashina Castle and defeat Genichiro. After that, players will be informed that the Mortal Blade is located somewhere in Senpou Temple.
To reach Senpou Temple, head down to the Sculptor’s Idol in Ashina Castle and then follow the path out through the Abandoned Dungeon and into Senpou Temple. In the Main Hall of Senpou Temple, be sure to rest at the Sculptor’s Idol and save your progress. After that, ring the bell on the desk located near a tall statue. In doing so, you’ll be whisked away to the Hall of Illusions.
Inside the Hall of Illusions, you’ll face off against four enemies known as the Folding Screen Monkeys.
