During the “Echoes of Old Battles” Lost Chapter in Where Winds Meet, you’ll explore the aftermath of the Khitan invasion in southern Qinghe. Things move smoothly, until you reach the underground chamber with a glowing statue and a mysterious wall puzzle.
If you found yourself staring at a bunch of stone blocks with ancient Chinese symbols and no idea which ones to push, you’re not alone. This puzzle is one of the trickiest parts of the Lost Chapter. The game gives hints through the Yanyun Oath gesture, but it still isn’t immediately clear what the correct sequence is.
Don’t worry. This guide breaks down the puzzle in simple steps so you can solve it in under a minute.
|How the Wall Puzzle Works in Where Winds Meet
Once you perform the Yanyun Oath gesture in front of the statue, several symbols along the walls will begin to glow, and certain stone blocks will shift outward, indicating they can be interacted with.
Your goal is to push only the three blocks that represent the sacred motto of the Northern Vow. The clue for this comes from Yanyun Oath Clue #3, which showcases the symbols you need—but matching them to the correct wall blocks can be confusing.
The puzzle solution involves pushing one block on the left side and two blocks on the right side of the chamber.
Here’s the exact order and location for each one.
|Where Winds Meet Wall Puzzle Solution
Stone Block #1 – Left Wall (Near the Door)
Standing behind the statue, turn left toward the blocked doorway. At the far corner of that wall, you’ll see a stone block with one of the required glowing symbols.
Push this block first.
Tip: This is the only required block on the left wall, don’t push anything else here.
|Stone Block #2 – Right Wall (Beside the Torch)
Return to the back of the statue and turn directly to the right. You’ll see a stone block sitting next to a fiery wall torch.
Push this block second.
This one is easy to find since the torch makes it stand out.
|Stone Block #3 – Right Wall (Below the Upper Block)
Stay on the same wall where you found the second block. Move slightly left and you’ll see two blocks vertically stacked—an upper one and a lower one.
The correct block is the lower stone block, which also bears one of the glowing Northern Vow symbols.
Push this block last.
Important: Do NOT push the upper block here, it is a decoy and will reset puzzle progress.

|What Happens After You Solve the Puzzle?
Once all three correct blocks are pushed:
- The sealed stone door will open.
- You’ll gain access to the final chamber of the “Echoes of Old Battles” quest.
- The Lost Chapter continues toward its final confrontation and story reveal.
This puzzle often confuses players because the room contains many similar blocks, and the glowing symbols can be hard to match. But with the correct three blocks above, the door opens instantly.
|Final Tips
- Make sure you’ve used the Yanyun Oath gesture before starting, otherwise the blocks won’t activate.
- If you push the wrong one, simply reset by leaving and re-entering the area.
- The puzzle doesn’t require speed, only choosing the correct blocks.
