Getting the Seamless Death
Defeat Jade-Face in the Mountain of Imprisonment region. The rings are handed over only if that fight is won, and the region itself is optional — the secrets page has how the Illusory Pipa opens the road to it. Its in-game Chinese name is 玉双环.
It counts as a Dual-Wield Blade on the Blade roster, and the boss list has Jade-Face in the Mountain of Imprisonment.
What it does in a fight
The launch-build figures, current as of 2026-11-05:
| Level 1 | |
|---|---|
| Damage | 288 |
| Guard break | 114 |
The rings are the only Blades that fight as thrown projectiles as well as melee blades. Any combo that ends on a triangle hurls a barrage of Flying Rings that track the locked-on enemy, so the finisher reaches targets a normal swing cannot. Dodging with them briefly phases Soul out of existence, which buys extra invulnerability frames on top of the dodge.
Moves: Standard Combo (five square attacks) and Sha-Chi Combo (four triangle attacks, which can be unleashed after any swing of a standard combo and hit harder once Sha-Chi is full; the last triangle throws the rings). The Power Surge is Reaping Rings — L2, it spends Sha-Chi to create distance from the enemy and then unloads a storm of Flying Rings that track the locked-on target, and it cannot be blocked.
Taking it to level 30
| Level | Perk |
|---|---|
| Lv. 5 | Charged Flying Ring |
| Lv. 10 | Empowered Flying Ring Lv. 1 |
| Lv. 15 | Phantom Step |
| Lv. 20 | Empowered Flying Ring Lv. 2 |
| Lv. 25 | Afterimage Feint |
| Lv. 30 | Empowered Flying Ring Lv. 3 |
Charged Flying Ring at level 5 lets you hold and throw a stronger ring. The level perks also add a chargeable thrown ring, more thrown-ring damage, a dodge that teleports further while phasing Soul out of existence for extra invulnerability frames, and an afterimage left behind after a Wrap. The published perk list names the unlocks but not what each one changes, so read the effect on the upgrade screen before you spend.
What the upgrade ladder costs
Levels are bought at any bell and cost Remnant Dust plus the dual-wield material chain:
| Metal | Solvent |
|---|---|
| Twinned Metal | Solvent |
| Polished Twinned Metal | Concentrated Solvent |
| Flawless Twinned Metal | Universal Solvent |
The published figures for this Blade give no per-band Remnant Dust price and no level 60 stat row, so read the dust cost of each step off the upgrade screen in-game. Sources also disagree on the cap itself: general weapon upgrade guides put it at level 30, while the community database's own upgrade table runs a 59-step ladder to level 60.
Soul Tempering
Ringstorm — a Jade Mask and 5,000 Remnant Dust. It increases the number of Flying Rings thrown by every move, so the barrage is the point of the Blade. Soul Tempering unlocks at Chapter 4 and happens at Myst in the Order's underground tavern in Pangzhen, and it cannot be undone.
