Quick answer: On the Mountain of Imprisonment, Jade-Face waits in the snowy courtyard past the large wooden door beside The Lady’s Shrine bell. He hurls ring blades from a distance while a Gold Mask and an Iron Mask attack at close quarters.
Jade-Face location on the Mountain of Imprisonment
Jade-Face health and the two masked fighters
Three enemies share the court, and each has its own health bar.
| Enemy | Health bar | Range |
|---|---|---|
| Jade-Face | 139,680 HP | Ranged ring blades |
| Gold Mask | Small bar | Close, long blade |
| Iron Mask | Small bar | Close, long blade |
The court is wide and paved. A raised stone walkway runs through it, and at the far end there are stairs and buildings hung with red lanterns. The stairs and railings matter. Jade-Face uses them as launch points, and the masked fighters can pin you against them.
Jade-Face moveset and attacks
Jade-Face does most of his work from a distance. The pressure up close comes from the masks.
He sends a ring blade sailing across the court; its low path and green trail let it catch you while you’re occupied with a masked fighter.
After a throw, the rings land and stay on the paving around you.
From the stairs or railings, he may spring high, lift the ring blade overhead, and descend onto you.
Blue shreds erupt around Soul in a cloud at close quarters, and the screen blurs.
Between his throws, the Iron Mask and Gold Mask advance, attacking with their long blades.
If both masks trap you beside the stairs or a railing, the exchange can be punishing: several strikes may connect one after another.
What the Jade-Face fight costs you
Health drops quickly in this court. Starting with a full bar, you last roughly 14 seconds on Pathbreaker and roughly 42 seconds on Wayfarer. Even on Wayfarer, you’ll need gourd heals several times during those 42 seconds, so enter with your heals ready.
Positioning makes the biggest difference. Don’t stand between the masked fighters and Jade-Face. Keep all three in view so the low ring throws don’t hit you from behind while you’re trading blows up close.
If you keep getting stuck, you have two options. Come back after you’ve upgraded your weapons, or switch the difficulty to Wayfarer.
Jade-Face reward: Seamless Death
The fight’s reward is the Seamless Death weapon, but you don’t get it the moment he falls. When you move on from the fight, a short death scene plays, and the weapon comes after it.
Your quest log confirms you’re past him. The Pillars of Kunlun quest updates to “Confront Huangxing inside the Shrine”, which points you to Huangxing as the next fight.
