Quick answer: Both petals are in the Mandate Encampment: The Hunt sits in the pit beneath the Mass Grave bell, and Parting Ways is beside the red gate at the Outer Gate bell. Collecting both raises maximum HP by 5%.
Memory Flower of Transcension Defyers at a glance
The set has two petals, I. The Hunt and II. Parting Ways, and you’ll find both of them inside the Mandate Encampment.
Each petal appears as a small cluster of blue flowers that glow. Press E to pick one up. A brief memory plays before its petal card appears on screen.
Once you have both petals, the set is complete and your maximum HP rises by 5%. You can collect the petals in either order.
Petal I: The Hunt
Use the Mass Grave bell in the Mandate Encampment as your starting point, and rest there. Drop from the bell into the pit in two falls: roughly 5 m, followed by about 11 m. Neither fall reduces your health. The path descends with no way to return on foot to the bell.
You’ll land in the same pit where you fight Corpse-Eating Xue.
Head across the floor of the pit. The petal is roughly 175 m on foot from the bell. It sits on a mossy rock shelf next to a tall carved stone stele.
The rock face straight ahead of the stele cannot be climbed. At the shelf’s far end, ascend the rocky incline; from the top, turn back toward the glowing blue flowers and press E.
The card that appears reads “MEMORY FLOWER OF TRANSCENSION DEFYERS” and “I. THE HUNT”. If you already have petal II, the card also shows “(2/2) All Memory Remnants collected. HP increased.”
The memory is an exchange between a Hunted Mandate Disciple and Huangxing’s Subordinate. The disciple says “Master… Master Moji… he’ll come for us!” The subordinate answers, “Heh… where is your Master Moji now? Why hasn’t he come to save you?” The disciple then asks “What… What did you do to him!?” The subordinate replies “Heh… Master Moji…won’t escape. Master Huangxing will make him suffer worse than death!” and finishes with “Follow Master Huangxing… That’s the only path left!”
Petal II: Parting Ways
At the Mandate Encampment Outer Gate bell, rest and turn toward the red gate. About 11 m from the bell, the glowing blue flowers sit just right of the gate’s stone steps.
There are no enemies near the petal, so you can walk straight over and press E.
The card reads “MEMORY FLOWER OF TRANSCENSION DEFYERS” and “II. PARTING WAYS”. If this is the first petal you’ve collected from the set, it shows “(1/2) Collect all Memory Remnants to increase HP +5%”.
In this memory, three characters talk about holding out. Zhao Di opens with “Before Master Moji left, he taught us… as long as hope remains in our hearts, the Mandate will never fall.” Wei Sanchuan answers, “I have a plan, but it’s risky… Master Moji entrusted me with the spare key to the encampment’s outer gates.” Zhuge Feng agrees with “Worth a try. It might also keep innocent travelers from wandering in…” Zhao Di closes the scene with “Then let’s make this stand! If we survive, the Mandate’s hope may yet endure!”
