How to beat Master Bi Yuan of the Tianxuan Sect
Our strategy, built from the fight's numbers, followed by the game's own codex entry.
- Parry the blue flashes: 1 of Master Bi Yuan of the Tianxuan Sect's 15 attacks flash blue before they land, and a timed parry stops them.
- Dodge the red flashes: 1 attacks flash red. They can't be parried, so dodge through them instead of blocking.
- The tightest tell is Delayed Downward Chop: only 0.35s from the flash to the hit, so react to the flash, not the swing.
- Bring Fire: it deals 16% more damage to Master Bi Yuan of the Tianxuan Sect.
- Poison builds up 16% faster on Master Bi Yuan of the Tianxuan Sect.
- Master Bi Yuan of the Tianxuan Sect's Sha-Chi bar is 2,400: perfect parries and Guard Break attacks drain it, and an empty bar opens the boss to a finisher.
Use Fire or Poison against Master Bi Yuan: each deals 16% more damage and builds its status 16% faster, while Lightning is resisted by 30%. Status damage matters here because his Sha-Chi is hard to crack.
He loses 30% less Sha-Chi when hit, 20% less when you Parry, and a full 75% less while he guards, so attacking into his block is close to wasted effort. Strike when his guard is down and use Parries to stay safe. At level 8 he has about 46,900 HP and 7,540 Sha-Chi by calculation, before difficulty, with a high base attack of 130.
The codex describes the Tianxuan Bronze Sword, a blunt, heavy blade, and countless blades of sword chi that make him difficult to approach. He grants 15,600 Remnant Dust in the Village of Lu and is followed by Yuzan, No. 3 Musician Puppet.

Master Bi Yuan of the Tianxuan Sect lore
The codex entry the game unlocks for Master Bi Yuan of the Tianxuan Sect.
In-game codexWithin the statue grounds stands the body of Master Bi Yuan. His worn Daoist robes cannot hide his unyielding spirit. He wields Tianxuan Bronze Sword, a blunt heavy blade with faintly gleaming diamond patterns. Sword and body move as one, flowing between offense and defense as he scatters countless blades of sword chi, making him difficult to approach.
Bi Yuan cared little for the mysteries of Heaven's Way or martial mastery. He wandered freely, driving ghosts from villages and hunting fiends in the fields. Months ago, while passing Village of Lu, he saw puppets spreading through the area and red flowers covering the faces of gods and Buddhas. Alarmed, he wrote to an old friend, left his sect, and returned to investigate.
He found people and puppets alike lost in confusion, believing the Herald of the Veil's lies. Bi Yuan raised his sword to resist, but the puppets' anguished cries made him hesitate, allowing the Herald's strings to bind him.
Now his body has fallen, and the puppets by the well have released their souls to wander free once more. The Dao is ever nameless, hidden beyond name. Bi Yuan has no regrets. Given another chance, he would make the same journey again.
