In Phantom Blade Zero, you'll eventually end up at the Smuggler's Treasure Cellar Bell, with a locked cellar just below the ladder. The issue? You don't have the key.

Fortunately, the key can be found within the Village of Lu. Unlocking the cellar scores you some major rewards, such as the Remnant Spark Cake, a Phantom Reforge Talisman, Remnant Dust, and more.

How to Get the Village of Lu Cellar Key in Phantom Blade Zero

After defeating Master Bi Yuan, you'll unlock the Lady Grounds Bell and head east to explore the Village of Lu. This is where you'll find the locked cellar. Once you reach the door and it's marked on your map, leave the area and focus on finding the Masters.

Once you defeat them, the threads surrounding the Well will disappear. Now, you'll be able to enter the Well, where you will fight the final bosses of the region. Once you've defeated the final boss, you'll be rewarded with Pupper No. 44's eye.

Take the lift down and open the door that leads to Pangzhen. As you continue through the doorway, you'll reach a red thread barrier. Turn around and enter the opposite corridor, where you'll fight an enemy puppet. Afterwards, the threads will disappear.

A dimly lit, abandoned interior of a barn or shed with scattered debris, wooden beams, and a staircase leading up. Shadows create a mysterious atmosphere, and hints of red material can be seen in the background, suggesting a sense of unease.

Pass through the area where the threads were - this is where you'll find the Tunnel Cage Key. Once you have it, return to the barrier and pass through to find a cell on the right-hand side. Here, you'll meet a thief who reveals he can't escape because he doesn't have the key that fits the cell door.

Use the Tunnel Cage Key to unlock the door and speak to him. As a reward for helping the thief, he'll give you the Village of Lu Cellar Key. Once it's in your inventory, return to the Smuggler's Treasure Cellar Bell.

At the Bell, head down the ladder and use the Cellar Key to unlock the door. Use the ladder to head down to the cellar. Soon, you'll come across a room with a puppet enemy. Once you defeat the enemy, you'll be able to open the treasure chest inside the room and claim the rewards.
