How to Get Soaring Spin in Where Winds Meet – Complete Walkthrough

Why Soaring Spin Is Worth the Hunt

Soaring Spin might not be a flashy damage dealer, but it’s arguably one of the most practically useful Mystic Skills in Where Winds Meet. What makes it stand out isn’t raw power—it’s versatility. The skill excels at gap closing, letting you quickly close the distance to opponents who might otherwise escape your range. More importantly, it reduces healing effects, which fundamentally changes how you approach fights against enemies who rely on sustain.

If you’re getting frustrated with opponents who won’t stop healing, or if you’re gearing up for PvP encounters against dedicated support-focused players, Soaring Spin becomes indispensable. It’s the kind of ability that doesn’t sound flashy until you’re in a fight and suddenly grateful you have it.

The trade-off? Getting it requires some serious exploration and preparation, but the payoff is worth every step.

Prerequisites: What You Need Before Starting

Before you even think about heading to Kaifeng, make sure you’ve got your ducks in a row:

Level Requirement: You must be at least Level 32

Story Progression: Complete the first chapter of Where Winds Meet

Celestial Seize Unlocked: This is crucial—you absolutely cannot get Soaring Spin without first unlocking the Celestial Seize Mystic Skill back in Qinghe. If you missed this, you’ll need to go back and complete that quest first. Check out our guide on how to get Celestial Seize if you need help.

Once you have all three of these things sorted, you’re ready to embark on this multi-stage dungeon crawl.

Stage 1: The Hidden Cave Base

This is where your journey begins. You’ll be spending time in Kaifeng’s lower regions, so get comfortable with that map area.

Finding the Cave Entrance

Head to the bottom part of the Kaifeng map. You’re looking for a river that runs south of Kaifeng City. Follow it all the way to its southernmost point, where you’ll find a pond with a Boundary Stone. This is your landmark.

Face toward the waterfalls by the Boundary Stone, then turn around. On the opposite side of the pond, you’ll spot a cave entrance. Head inside.

Defeating the Guards and Climbing Up

When you enter the cave, you’ll immediately encounter guards positioned at the entrance. Deal with them—this is your warm-up. After clearing them, you need to fight your way to the top of the cave tunnels. There will be enemies throughout, so stay sharp.

Locating the Gilded Chest

As you climb, you’ll eventually reach what looks like a stronghold interior with a main hall area. In this main hall, look for a ladder and climb it. The upper level contains a gilded chest with two keys inside. This is your critical objective for this stage. Grab those keys—you’ll need both of them for what comes next.

Stage 2: The Secret Outpost and Underground Tunnel Network

Now that you have the keys, it’s time to head deeper. This stage involves more exploration and combat, so pace yourself.

Reaching Dreamfall Cliff Outpost

From the cave, head east past the Martial Temple until you reach the outpost at Dreamfall Cliff. You’ll know you’re in the right place when you see the compound with enemies inside.

Clear out all the enemies in the outpost area. This isn’t a boss fight yet—just standard combat encounters, so use this as an opportunity to top off your health and resources.

Finding the Secret Door

Once the outpost is clear, look south for a storage shed. Inside this seemingly mundane building is a secret door leading to an underground tunnel system. Here’s where it gets tricky: you need to defeat the boss of the outpost to get the key that unlocks this secret door.

If you haven’t taken down the boss yet, go back and do that now. Once you have the key, the secret door opens.

Navigating the Underground Tunnels

The tunnel system ahead is fairly linear but heavily populated with soldiers. Just keep moving forward, defeating enemies as they appear. There’s no need to overthink this section—just follow the path and stay aggressive.

You’ll eventually reach a locked, golden door. This is your next puzzle:

1. Shoot the nearby bell with your bow
2. Use Meridian Touch to open the door

If you haven’t learned Meridian Touch yet, this is a good reminder that exploring and picking up skills throughout Kaifeng and Qinghe pays off.

Stage 3: The Secret Edict Chamber and the Giant Asura Statue

Just past the golden door, you’ll find a small antechamber with another Boundary Stone. You’re getting close now.

Beyond the huge doors past this stone is the Secret Edict Chamber—a temple filled with statues and enemies. The moment you walk in, you’ll see it: a massive giant Asura statue dominating the space. This is your final destination.

The Statue Climb

To reach Soaring Spin, you need to get to the top of the Asura statue. This involves climbing, timing, and combat awareness.

Start by climbing over the smaller statues in the area to reach a ladder that leads higher up. As you climb, you’ll notice enemies stationed on various balconies—they’ll take shots at you while you’re exposed. You have two options:

1. Take them out first – Clear the balconies of enemies before climbing further. This takes time but is safer.
2. Use Veil of Stillness – This defensive skill renders you temporarily safe from incoming attacks while you climb. You can learn it at Moonveil Peak back in Qinghe if you haven’t already.

The second approach is faster if you’ve already unlocked the skill, so plan accordingly.

Reaching the Top

Keep making your way up the support beams of the statue. As you get higher, you’ll eventually be able to jump directly onto the statue’s head. Once you’re up there, turn around.

Above you should be another chest. Here’s where Celestial Seize comes into play: use Celestial Seize to loot the chest above you.

Your Reward: Soaring Spin and More

Inside that chest, you’ll find:

• Soaring Spin (the main prize)
• Additional loot and resources

You’ve officially unlocked one of Where Winds Meet’s most practical Mystic Skills. Time to put it to work.

Pro Tips for This Quest

Prepare Before You Start

• Stock up on healing items before entering the cave base
• Make sure Celestial Seize is properly leveled if possible
• Consider learning Veil of Stillness before the statue climb for an easier ascent

Don’t Rush the Exploration

• This questline involves multiple dungeon areas. Take time to look around for additional chests and resources along the way
• The path is fairly linear, but there are usually side areas worth checking

Know Your Escape Routes

• If you’re low on health during the underground tunnel section, backtrack to the antechamber with the Boundary Stone and use it to rest
• Resource management is important here, so don’t waste healing items early on

Combat Strategy

• The enemies throughout this questline aren’t particularly tough, but there are many of them
• Use crowd control skills when available to manage groups
• Don’t get cornered on narrow paths in the tunnels

Final Thoughts

Getting Soaring Spin is a commitment, but it’s one that pays dividends throughout the rest of your Where Winds Meet journey. The skill’s utility in both PvE encounters against healers and PvP matchups makes it worth the exploration and combat grind. Plus, the Secret Edict Chamber is genuinely atmospheric—the kind of location that makes you appreciate the game’s world-building.

Once you’ve got Soaring Spin in your arsenal, you’ll wonder how you ever managed without it. That’s the mark of a truly well-designed ability.
