This quest ties in with both the Chapter 5 secret area and the Horse Guai quest. Check out our full guide for thefive Elemental Carts quest.
Horse Guai Quest

You can find the Horse Guai inside one of the five Elemental Carts after the Valley Entrance Shrine. You can learn aboutall the Horse Guai locationsto finally complete this quest and claim your reward.
3 Samadhi Fire Crystals
You can collect three Samadhi Fire Crystals that are hidden behind optional boss fights and craft the powerful Staff of Blazing Karma weapon. Here are the locations for all three Samadhi Fire Crystals:
Secret Area: Bishui Beast Cave
The Secret Area: Bishui Beast Cave requires you to backtrack once the flames have been fanned out. Return to the Ashen Pass III Shrine and make your way towards the path where you dealt with the giant golden ball. This is the same path where you fight the Flint Vanguard and Mother of Flamlings. Keep forging ahead and you’ll find the final Elemental Cart and enter the Bishui Beast Cave if you’ve kept up with the Elemental Carts quest.
Inside the Bishui Beast Cave, you will find the Chapter 5 Frog location, a secret boss called Top Takes Bottom, Bottom Takes Top, and the Yaoguai King Bishui Beast. The path is fairly linear once you find it, so just keep chugging ahead.
Old Man Quest
you’re able to find the Old Man from previous chapters in a large room on the left side of the Rakshasa Palace area next to the location with the two giant enemies. If you bring him a Gourd with nine charges he will upgrade it to its maximum potential and allow you to heal 10 times in total.
