Temple of the Ocean King VI
From Mercay Island head to the Temple of the Ocean King. Once you enter the temple for this final time you can either take the yellow warp portal to the 7th floor or remake your way through the temple to get a better time. Now that you have the Phantom Sword you can defeat the Phantoms scattered throughout the temple. Killing all the Phantoms on each floor will award you with a treasure chest. We’ve started you off at floor B7 below:
Basement 7
Ride the moving platform to the west and north. Use your Grappling Hook to latch on to the treasure chest to your right. Open the treasure chest to receive a Round Crystal. Grab it and head down to floor B8.
Basement 8
Once you enter the floor walk northward until you see a tiny hold in the wall. Use a Bombchu to hit the switch on the other side of the wall. This will cause the door to your north to open. Continue carrying your Round Crystal and head down the stairs you just unlocked to floor B9.
Basement 9
This room is identical to the last time you had visited. Now that you can easily defeat Phantoms it will make things a lot easier.
Walk the Round Crystal towards the large safe zone at the northern part of the floor. Once you’ve done this you will need to obtain the Square Crystal that the nearby Phantom is holding. Grab the Square Crystal after defeating the Phantom and walk it to the pedestal located at the northwest corner of the floor.
Place the Square Crystal on its pedestal to cause nearby flames to extinguish. Run over and open the treasure chest to obtain the Triangle Crystal. Walk all three crystals back to the large safe zone. You will now want to place the crystals in the following order:
- Square Crystal
- Round Crystal
- Triangle Crystal
Enter the door that opened and walk down to floor B10.
Basement 10
Defeat the Phantoms located around the room and make your way towards the center of the floor. Defeat the Phantom holding the key and use the crystal switch on the western side of the room to unlock the path towards the stairs at the center of the room.
Descend down the stairs to floor B11.
Basement 11
Defeat the Phantoms on this floor if you would like to obtain the treasure chest.
Make your way to the northeast and northwest corners of the floor where you need to pull two red levers. Pulling these will cause bridges to appear.
Grab your Shovel and dig up the soil spot located near the platforms at the northern portion of the room. Ride the wind geyser up and step on the two switches located on these platforms.
Now make your way to the southern portion of the floor. Here you will see a crystal switch as well as another soil spot to dig up. Dig up the soil spot, and ride the wind geyser up a level and run over the bridge to the east and step on the switch. From here you can use a Bombchu to hit the crystal switch to your right. After hitting the switch immediately run to your west and cross the bridge that appeared. Note: If you are not quick enough the bridge will disappear. Step on the switch and a door will open at the western portion of the floor. Enter the western door and walk down to floor B12.
Basement 12
On this floor, you will need to collect the three Force Gems as you did once before. The first is located to the west being carried by a Phantom. The second and third are located in treasure chests along the northern portion of the floor. Collect all three and bring them to the large safe zone and place them on their pedestals. Walk down the stairs and make your way down to floor B13.
Basement 13
Upon entering the room you will notice things are a lot more active than the last time you were here. You will need to defeat the Phantoms that appear in this room.
To defeat the Phantoms easily grab the red pot at the northeast corner of the floor. Jump down and quickly throw the pot on the ground. Stand in the safe zone and draw the Phantoms near. Defeat them all and a new set of Phantoms will appear. Defeat them and defeat the final trio of Phantoms to clear the room.
From here make your way through the door at the northern part of the floor. You will now face off against the final boss, Bellum!
Bellum the Evil Phantom
During the first phase of this battle, you will need to use your Grappling Hook to pull some of the Slime off of Bellum. Once you have pulled enough off you can aim right for Bellum’s mouth and pull it to the edge of the pool. From here slash its eye with your sword. Keep hitting Bellum until he beings floating upward.
Walk up the stairs to the second level. Here you will need to use your Bow and shoot the eyes located on his tentacles that are latching onto the columns on this level. After hitting all of its tentacles Bellum will fall back into his pool. Repeat the steps from before until it hovers to the second level again.
Once Bellum latches onto the second level again, repeat the steps from before using your Bow to shoot the eyes on his tentacles. This time its eyes will only be open for short intervals. Shoot enough tentacles and Bellum will float to the third/top level.
On the top level you will once again need to shoot down his tentacles. Bellum will being swinging its tentacles around more. Dodge these attacks by hiding behind a pillar. Once all of his tentacles have been hit again you will be treated to a small cutsceen.
After the scene with Ciela, walk back down to the ground level. Now you will need to collect Phantom Spheres around the room. Tap on the hourglass icon and draw an hourglass on your screen. This will allow you to pause time and slash away at Bellum’s eye. Do this enough times to defeat Bellum.
After being transported back to Linebeck’s ship and awakening Tetra, you will need to face off with Bellum once more. The Ghost Ship will now begin too shoot out slime at you. Shoot the slime with your cannon. Continue making your way around the Ghost Ship, shooting any eyes and slime you see. Continue this until the Ghost Ship has been destroyed.
Climb aboard the wreckage of the Ghost Ship and face off against the final part of this boss battle. Attempt to get behind this massive Phantom and Ciela will release a Phantom Sphere. Pause time using the same method as before and walk behind the large Phantom. You should notice its eye is closed. After this failed attempt Ciela will be the view on your top screen. Use this view to tell when the Phantoms eye is open.
Ciela will be trapped by Bellum. Attack the Phantom from the front and lock swords with it. Rub the stylus on your screen to break free. Hit the Phantom one more time to free Ciela for long enough for her to release a Phantom Sphere. Once you notice the eye on the back of Phantom is open, freeze time using the hourglass. Slash away at the eye and continue this process until you’ve finally beaten Bellum!
You’ve officially done it! Sit back, relax, and enjoy the end credits!
