Phantom Blade Zero is usually pretty straightforward when it comes to the main story quest. Sure, you can sidetrack here and there and grab a chest or a quest on the side, but if you're just after the main story, it's mostly a pretty linear experience. Well, all that changes when you need to enter the Mirage Estate, and the front entrance is heavily guarded. While it's not difficult, entering the Mirage Estate through the side entrance requires a bit of backtracking, where you need to visit two old and one new location. The old locations are clearly marked, but the new location may have you scratching your head, which is why we made this guide. How To Enter The Mirage Estate To enter the Mirage Estate, you need to go through the Serpent Door in the Green Serpent House, but to open it you need three keys, each one part of the Serpent Door. Here's what you need: The Serpent Tongue — Inside the Black Serpent House in the Village of Lu The Serpent Fang — Inside the Red Serpent House in the Crimson Forest The (White) Serpent Eye — On an island in Meigu Lake (the one you're probably missing) The first two pieces are easy enough to get. As long as you've finished the fight against Flame, The Mask-Bound Lion Dance Grandmaster, you'll have the Lion Mask which lets you burn wooden roadblocks. Simply teleport back to these locations, burn the branches and collect the Tongue and the Fang. For the Serpent Eye, you need to enter a whole new area that you might have missed if you focused only focused on the story. ​​​​You'll see the Serpent Eye located in an undiscovered part of the world map. To get to it, follow the Sha-Chi Powered Boat side-quest. It will lead you to a lake in Pangzhen where a jet-boat will be waiting for you. Board the boat, and sail towards the main quest objective. On the way, you'll pass by a couple of islands, and if you want, you should disembark and, at least, activate the bells to make backtracking easier. When you reach the island marked with the bell, disembark from the boat, fight against two regular enemies, and fight the Heartpiercer, Elite Shadow Warden. He isn't a difficult boss, but he does soak up a lot of damage, so just parry and dodge his attacks until you get his health down (he only has one phase). After finishing the boss, simply enter the Serpent House, and loot the Serpent Eye. Congratulations, now you have all the keys needed to enter the Mirage Estate and continue the main story. ​
