In Where Winds Meet, players encounter a shadowy organization known as the Nine Mortal Ways. This group is comprised of cunning tricksters who leverage deception for personal gain or to take pleasure in the misfortunes of others.
By aligning yourself with the Nine Mortal Ways, you gain access to their distinctive Mortal Rope Dart weapon, unique abilities, and the chance to play pranks on fellow players, allowing you to ascend within the ranks of this enigmatic Sect.
The process for entering the Nine Mortal Ways is somewhat enigmatic, with the game only hinting that fate will lead you there. Below is a comprehensive guide on how to embark on your journey to become a legendary trickster!
Steps to Join the Nine Mortal Ways in Where Winds Meet
To start your quest for membership in the Nine Mortal Ways, you must first follow a path similar to that of joining the Well of Heaven Sect.
Your first destination is Harvestfall Village, located in the western region of Qinghe. Engage in conversation with a waiter named San Qian, who is well-informed about local happenings.
After offering a modest bribe, San Qian will inform you that a venerable elder from the Well of Heaven has set up camp near an elm tree at the summit of the village.
Proceed to find this elder, who will express willingness to accept your request for membership, albeit after you complete a peculiar task: lifting a stash of jewelry from a former associate.
This request should raise concerns, as the guiding principle of the Well of Heaven is “Heroic Righteousness”, which seemingly conflicts with the act of stealing. However, it’s wise to proceed with caution for now.
Unbeknownst to you, this supposed elder is, in fact, a member of the Nine Mortal Ways operating in disguise, and this is all part of a grand trick. Successfully fulfilling his request allows you to join their mischievous ranks.
To collect the jewels on behalf of the Nine Mortal Ways, navigate to the impostor’s “old friend”and activate Wind Sense using the right stick. Choose the option for “Large Pile of Jewelry” from his inventory and request it.
It soon becomes apparent that this individual is indeed the genuine elder of the Well of Heaven. Nevertheless, you’ll successfully acquire the jewels and can return to the first elder to hand them over.
At this juncture, the truth is revealed: you have fallen victim to a ruse, thrust into the world of the Nine Mortal Ways, where deception is the name of the game.
If you wish, you may decline the offer and return to the authentic elder to continue seeking membership in the Well of Heaven. However, accepting the invitation grants you the Mortal Rope Dart Martial Art and opens doors to exclusive activities.
As a member of the Nine Mortal Ways, your objective is to gather Fun Points through various mischievous activities: posting phony messages, distributing fake money packets, and engaging in deceptive play while enjoying Madiao Cards.

It’s crucial to note that failing your tricks or serving time for misdeeds will damage your standing within the Nine Mortal Ways. In contrast, successfully causing chaos will elevate your rank rapidly!
