Walkthrough

1
Return to the SHINE and repeat the steps for obtaining Dung Balls. Periodically return to RYUNOSHIN to give him Dung Balls. NOBLE DUNG BALLS are worth approximately 5 Dung Balls each.
2
Rewards for Dung Balls: 1 Dungball = [_GESTURE: THANKS_], 15 Dungballs = [_SOULSTONE_], 30 Dungballs = [_HORNED TURBAN KABUTO_] & Trophy.
3
From the boss room door, proceed left around the corner. Ignore the right room and continue to the end, bypassing all rooms on the right. Go under the staircase with a samurai at the top and around the next corner. Enter the first door on the right and proceed to the middle where the crystal is (a [_CORPSE_] is located here). Destroy the crystal to free the men under Kelley's control.
4
Loot the nearby rooms. One contains a [_CORPSE_], and a larger room has [_CHEST x2_]. Destroy excess junk for random items (mostly Elixirs and Arrows). Head to the back and go up the stairs.
5
In the next area, a samurai guards the hallway leading to another large purple crystal. Wait for the samurai to enter the room before proceeding past him.
6
Enter the next hallway and kill the roaming Skeleton Warrior. Continue around this area, passing an open-air section. Open the DOOR to the left for a shortcut back to the boss area and loot the nearby [_CORPSE_].
7
Head up the next hallway and past it into the castle area. Note the open door on the left. Go past it to the left, breaking boxes for a [_CORPSE_]. Continue past the door again and stop at the corner. Wait for the dual-wielding samurai patrolling this area to go back inside before going up the stairs.
8
Proceed through the hallway and into the room, looting the [_CORPSE_] to the left. To deal with the Dweller and Fiend, barely enter the room and back out to lure the Fiend out. Kill the Fiend away from the Dweller to avoid being bombed. Then, kill both. Enter the room to the left.
9
Inside, you will find a [_CORPSE_] and a NURIKABE WALL. To the right of the corpse is a door leading back, and to the right of the Nurikabe wall is another door. Go through the latter door and down the ladder for a [_CORPSE_] and the PURPLE CRYSTAL. Destroy it to free the nearby samurai.
10
Loot the area. The nearby door leads to a large room with a [_CORPSE_] and a [_BIG CHEST_]. Return to the ladder and open the door. To the left by the stairs (behind junk) is another [_CORPSE_]. Head up the ladder and bypass the NURIKABE WALL using gestures or combat. Behind it are a [_BIG CHEST_], a small [_CHEST_], and a SHRINE. Use the shrine to level up and refresh.
11
Follow the path and go up the ladder. Do not enter the door on the right yet (it leads to a boss). Instead, go outside to the left for a [_CORPSE_] and then around the corner to find a [_HUNTER KODAMA_]. Return to the door. Going down the stairs to the left leads to a Fiend and a [_CORPSE_] behind the stairs, connecting to the Dweller/Fiend and Nurikabe wall rooms.
12
When ready, head to the doors above and enter to face the boss of this level.

Boss Encounter: OKATSU

Okatsu is an agile Revenant possessed by Kelley's Gyokuto spirit. Unlike Honda, her possession cannot be broken by destroying crystals; she must be defeated.
She moves quickly, performs combos, and attempts to disengage. Punish her attacks when she is vulnerable and exploit her low Ki. Utilize grapples and Finishing Attacks when opportunities arise. Mastering the range of her attacks is key to baiting and punishing her.
Upon taking damage, Okatsu activates her
