Mystic Skills aren’t all about enhancing your exploration or fighting abilities, as some skills will provide additional support and defenses for your characters, too.
If you’re anything like me and prefer a more defensive playstyle, then the Golden Body mystic skill is something you should consider owning.
Unlocking the Golden Body Mystic Skill is a challenge in itself, so keep on reading to know how to unlock this skill in Where Winds Meet.
Where Winds Meet – Golden Body Mystic Skill Guide
To unlock the Golden Body mystic skill, head over to Kaifeng’s Grand Imperial Temple to find Shi Yi, a young monk, and get the Golden Body scroll from him. You will find him at the northeast corner of the Temple during the mornings. Change your in-game time if you happen to come across this place anytime after noon.
To get the Golden Body scroll, use Celestial Seize while hidden close to Shi Yi. You will retrieve the scroll, which will unlock the Golden Body mystic skill.
