Find Venom Daoist in Upper Hollow first gotta circle right from the start and drop down through a hole. Push through the cocoon tunnels until you reach Pools of Shattered Jade Shrine, then look left at the top of stairs for a slope leading to his arena. Beat him here and hell show you a mural pointing to his second spot. Take him down again, and that opens up Purple Cloud Mountain for you.

When you get there youll meet Hong Yi the Snake Guai, who gives you heads up about the tough fights ahead with Daoist Mi, Duskveil and Scorpionlord. The mountain paths pretty straightforward at first but gets tricky real quick with all the elite enemies around. Good to know you should probably upgrade your gear and abilities before heading in, since the fights get pretty intense up there. The mountain areas no joke with multiple boss fights, so make sure youre ready before making the climb.
