## Key points

- Three optional areas can remain hidden in Weeping Creek Valley.
- Some require story progress in the Crimson Forest.
- Find bells to reveal the map.

## Summary

In *Phantom Blade Zero*, much of the Weeping Creek Valley map is revealed by finding bells, but three optional areas can remain hidden even after players move on to the Crimson Forest. Unlocking them involves defeating enemies, backtracking and progressing further through the main story, so players may need to return to the valley later.

The first area is reached through a glowing floor hole in Valley Sha-Chi Tower and requires defeating Hua, The Betrothed. The Creek Valley Plains require defeating The Hunt to obtain the Hunter’s Chain Sickle, using it to reach a key, then opening a gate and finding four bells. The southwest area becomes accessible after defeating Bai Chilian and reaching the Village of Lu; guards at the Outpost then turn into monsters, opening the way across the bridge.
