This page of the guide contains a walkthrough for this mission.
That’s where you’ll see a locked door that will be opened later.
To remove the negative status, you better destroy water barrels.
They are located at the exit of the cave.
On the right there is a cave where you will fight spiders.
Enter it, as this is the safer route, as both pathways lead to the same location.
Coming out of the cave, there is an enemy on the right, kill him from behind.
On the left side there is a wooden bridge - use it.
You should see an entrance to a cave on your left, it is guarded by one soldier.
Defeat him and continue to the cave.
Inside, you’ll find a new Yokai, a Tesso.
The enemy is characteristic for its sharp claws and farting attacks.
Its attacks put a Stench status on your character that lowers your healing capabilities.
It’s weakness is his tail - hit it there.
Continue forward - you’ll encounter a door that serves as a shortcut.
After opening the door, step back and exit the cave.
After leaving the cave, look to your left where you will find a native who handles cannons.
Kill him so he doesn’t interfere with further exploration.
Also watch out for a dog patrolling the area.
Go up and left to find another dog.
It’ll make it easier for you to fight the Yoki.
Keep going but stay near the left side - you’ll find another entrance to a cave.
Continue down this road but watch out for opponents.
Keep looking at ceilings, as there are spiders waiting to drop on you and kill you.

Go ahead and watch out for spiders and a few Tessos.
you could pick up interesting items there, but the number of enemies is quite large.
At the top is a Yoki and a single sharpshooter.
Once you’ve beaten them, go further ahead to find a second shrine.
As you go upstairs, watch out for another barrel that Yoki will throw at you.
Go up a little, then quickly run down.
Instead of going up first, enter the cave.
There is a Scammpus on the left.
Also, there is a Namahage in front of you.
Shoot him in the head to weaken him significantly.
Instead of the potion, give him the dung balls you might have collected before.
In return, you’ll get some interesting things, such as a new gesture or Amrita crystals.
Look out, as there is a Yokai Realm nearby from which a Waira appears.
Attack his abdomen, but watch out as he can fall on his back.
Go inside the building Waira was guarding.
Turn left first, but watch out for another Tesso.
Next you’ll encounter another Yoki and a spider that’s on the ceiling.
Deal with them and turn left as you walk up the stairs to the top.
On your right, there is a painting, and a soldier behind it.
If you get close enough, the soldier will rip through it and start attacking you.
This is the path you should follow.
That’s where you’ll find the next, third shrine.
To do this, go to the next painting (shown in the screenshot above) and destroy it.
On the left there is a room with giant spiders, and a way leading up the stairs.
At the top, follow the red footbridge to the other side.
Pull the levers and continue forward.
The best solution is to pull them out one at a time.
Yokai Realm will dissapear the moment you kill Namahage.
Now walk across the blue footbridge to the other side and pull the other lever.
This will give you access to the arena with a location boss.
The boss fight is described in a separate chapter.
