Phantom Blade Zero is usually pretty straightforward when it comes to the main story quest. Sure, you can sidetrack here and there and grab a chest or a quest on the side, but if you're just after the main story, it's mostly a pretty linear experience. Well, all that changes when you need to enter the Mirage Estate, and the front entrance is heavily guarded.

While it's not difficult, entering the Mirage Estate through the side entrance requires a bit of backtracking, where you need to visit two old and one new location. The old locations are clearly marked, but the new location may have you scratching your head, which is why we made this guide.

To enter the Mirage Estate, you need to go through the Serpent Door in the Green Serpent House, but to open it you need three keys, each one part of the Serpent Door.

The first two pieces are easy enough to get. As long as you've finished the fight against Flame, The Mask-Bound Lion Dance Grandmaster, you'll have the Lion Mask which lets you burn wooden roadblocks. Simply teleport back to these locations, burn the branches and collect the Tongue and the Fang.

For the Serpent Eye, you need to enter a whole new area that you might have missed if you focused only focused on the story.

​​​​You'll see the Serpent Eye located in an undiscovered part of the world map. To get to it, follow the Sha-Chi Powered Boat side-quest.
