Must be done first:💬 Wealthy Family
Warning: ⚠️ This quest cannot be matched with in-game data in Thai server patch 1.3.2 yet. It may have been renamed or removed, so it is not counted towards the city's total. ⚠️ Still unverified.

The receiver is Henglin at another location only. 🚩 NPC name "Henglin" follows the owner's confirmation (the sign in the picture reads closely to "Helin"), Chinese name still unknown. ⚠️ The Chinese name of this quest is still unknown. Thus it does not count towards exploration points (panel counts 17).

Searching for the name Bone-Strengthening Powder in the quest registry Rumors of Cloudcrest Fortress in the Thai server did not find it. It may be categorized under another city or quest type. Checked on 3 Sep 2026 🔴 The first point is in the underground floor. Standing on the surface map at this coordinate will find nothing, must find the entrance. ⚠️ It is in the quest notebook as Rumors true, but the exploration panel only counts 17.

🔒 Trigger, how to do it, and all details open to members Read in the quest page

⚠️ coordinates may vary ±2-15 units by game version and quest names on the Thai server may differ from this, use Chinese name + coordinates Chinese name + coordinates is the most accurate reference

📌 Still have 16 quests with incomplete data (Chinese guide only mentions 2 choices but doesn't specify ending names). Click filter "Incomplete data" to view list

ℹ️ Rumors (Mortal) quests of Cloudcrest Fortress confirmed to be available in the Thai server: 19 quests. Another 3 on this page cannot be confirmed yet, check the flags for each one. Checked Sep 3, 2026.

ℹ️ Cloudcrest Fortress has Adventure quests actually doable on the Thai server right now 8 quests. Another quest is The Bittersweet Pair which is patch 1.3.2 content the Thai server hasn't reached yet. Checked Sep 3, 2026.

ℹ️ In-game exploration panel image available (Jul 29, 2026). In-game count: Exploration Puzzle 823. Adventure 8. Folklife Events 17. Wild Boss 14. Cloudcrest Banner 60. Max points 5,720. The Thai map name used by the game is "Cloudcrest Fortress"

ℹ️ 🎯 Completed both quest categories on the in-game panel. Adventure 8/8 and Mortal World 17/17. This is the third map where this can be done (following Peachspring Village and Yanmen Pass in category Mortal World)

ℹ️ Method to count all 8 Adventure: Two guides match on 7 of them, and another 1 (Undying Memories) is in another guide's all-game list because it's a quest that only appears at night, so map-specific guides often miss it. Meanwhile, Green Waves Rippling which some guides place on this map is not counted because it's a quest from a wandering mysterious old NPC who randomly crosses maps, similar to the case of Pathfinder at Bianjing.

ℹ️ How the 17 Mortal World are counted: General guides give 15 (split across 4 districts) + Crushing Burden which is a hidden Rumors quest that general guides don't have + Autumn in the Heart which requires completing the main Story first = exactly 17.

ℹ️ The Adventure Codex table of the main reference source has zero rows for this map. Unlike every city made before. This means the luck level (what color maple leaf) for most quests is still unknown; the listed ones come from individual guides that only specified 3. Must check in-game yourself

ℹ️ 🔴 This map is the only one where a Rumors quest is tied to the main Story. Autumn in the Heart will not appear until you finish the main quest Story Autumn Night Longing first.

ℹ️ The main Story of this map has a branch that decides the ending, and Rewind can be replayed. See topic Rewind below. The main characters are Gu Xizhao and Qi Shaoshang from the original novel.

ℹ️ The coordinates of this map are unusually wide: x about 359-1313, y about 269-1870. The southernmost district (Xiaoju Mountain) and northernmost district (Eagle Nest Camp) are very far apart, don't be alarmed if walking takes a long time.

ℹ️ Two Chinese guides give the coordinates of Use of Poison overlapping Taste of the Past in every single spot. They probably copied each other incorrectly, so we are not posting coordinates for Use of Poison at all rather than posting wrong ones.

ℹ️ The collectibles of this map named Cloudcrest Banner have 60 items. More than regular maps (usually 20-40). No collectible exchange shop has been found for this map yet, no Chinese guide mentions it.

ℹ️ This map has no Love Check-in Point. The whole server has 46 points across only the 5 original maps (Bianjing Hangzhou Cizhou Sanqing Mountain Peachspring Village)

ℹ️ Patch: This map was released in China in version 1.2.3 (Jan 2024). The Thai server is already at 1.3.2, so it is definitely fully available, confirmed by the website owner's exploration panel screenshot while actually walking in this map.

ℹ️ ━━━ This map's Rewind ━━━

ℹ️ The Story main quest during Cloudcrest Fortress has two endings, and Rewind can be replayed to collect the other path. The character everything revolves around is Gu Xizhao. The game secretly tracks his "darkness value" throughout the entire chapter: Choosing the path to trust him = value decreases. Choosing the path to be suspicious of him = value increases. This leads to two possible destinations. Open-hearted communication (Meet with Honesty) means he doesn't turn dark. Hidden Tides means he hides things and starts turning dark.

ℹ️ The choice paths leading to each ending have 5 decision points, spread from the beginning to the fort and up to the news decision moment. Missing even a single point sends you to the other path. The guide on what to click is on the website's "Rewind" page, not listed here.

ℹ️ Rewind rules you need to know before clicking (applies to all chapters, not just this map): Unlock the system with the quest Past Affairs of Jade Pendant first. Go via Mission Log > All Missions > select the chapter you want to replay > Rewind button in the top right corner. Chapters played just today cannot be replayed; you must use item Flower Branch and wait for the next day. 🔴 While inside Rewind, overworld quests will not trigger at all, you must exit back out first. If you are hunting for this map's quests and suddenly nothing pops up, check first whether you are stuck in Rewind.

ℹ️ 📖 The full Rewind system (flowcharts for all chapter endings. how to make endings take effect. conflicting ending pairs) is on the website's "Rewind" page. Only the part belonging to map Cloudcrest Fortress is listed here.

ℹ️ ⚠️ It is still unknown which chapter Cloudcrest Fortress is in flowchart Rewind, and whether these two endings unlock any quest Adventure. You must open the flowchart in-game to check.

ℹ️ ━━━ Secret quests that must be done before chests can be opened ━━━

ℹ️ This map has 6 large chests that cannot be opened directly; you must finish other tasks first. Full details for every single one are on the Map Exploration page under topic Chest. Summary: Defeat the three Rock, Paper, Scissors brothers. Get a massage at Bathhouse. Defeat the giant turtle to open the cave. Clear out 4 bandit spots, Pet 2 dogs. and the hardest one is you must finish the Adventure quest of Great Fortune difficulty first, then show the ring to Cloudcrest Elder.

ℹ️ 🔑 The most missed hidden exploration spot is at Eagle's Nest Camp (Eyrie Fortress) coordinates 1246,488. The "Enter" sign won't appear until you complete other exploration spots on the same courtyard first. And the entrance to the Martial Arts Training Secret Room (Training Chamber) requires stepping on a bear trap to make yourself fall down at coordinates 1162,1026, which nothing in the game tells you.

ℹ️ 🃏 Quest log card chain Black Tortoise Town 3 items (Rumors 18 > 19 > 20). This is an actual Rumors quest in the quest log (confirmed from the website owner's quest log on Aug 17, 2026), but the exploration panel does not count it (the panel still counts 17). It was briefly miscategorized as an exploration spot, Fixed.

ℹ️ The pale yellow Pouch (quest item). The collection point is inside a building, not on the map ground (coordinates are in the quest page that uses this item). In-game description: A finely sewn cloth pouch embroidered with the words "Repel foreign enemies, eternal peace", inside is an amulet obtained by praying in front of the Buddha statue "Seems to be a gift from a lover". ⬜ It is still unknown what it is used for next, and the Chinese name is also unknown, no Chinese guides have recorded it. ⚠️ This is a different item from the Pouch of Rumors Escape Alive obtained in the basement (website owner actually collected it on Aug 18, 2026).

ℹ️ NPC Pinghu at 969,1458 gives "Mirror Fragment". The website author actually obtained it on Aug 17, 2026. The destination is to deliver it to boss Ye Jingxian in the dungeon Strange Tales of Faraway Lands (not on any map). Boss Lv.69, 6-player party, the sign at the top right during combat reads "General: Defeat Tianshou and the Land" (difficulty level + sub-stage name). ⬜ Not yet confirmed what you get upon delivery, and the Chinese names of the dungeon/NPC/item are still unknown. No Chinese guides have recorded this route.

ℹ️ 🔴 Paint Enmity. Chinese guides got the entire sequence wrong Every single one states it starts by tearing apart a pile of straw. Website owner stood there on Aug 18, 2026 and literally nothing happened. The real starting point is talking to Qi Yixing first (coordinates are in the quest page) > Website updated to match the game.
