What Searing Darkfire Charcoal does

Searing Darkfire Charcoal is one of the Phantom Edge Upgrade Materials. Its item card describes it as “Charcoal steeped in potent Sha-Chi. Its fierce flames are like wounds that never heal, ceaselessly spilling a stream of scalding blood.” It also states its use: “Required to upgrade Destruction-type Phantom Edges from Lv. 20 to max level.”

Take the wooden stairs up to the wooden terrace above the Meigu stilt houses; an orange glint beside a hut wall marks the key.

In Meigu Village, the chained lattice entrance stands on a raised plank path, decorated with red curtains and red couplets. To open it, approach from the village-path side and face it from the small nook, then press E. Opening the door consumes the key.
