Temple of Xian
Items: 38
Kills: 36
Couldn't get enough of scenic China, could you? We promise to make your second visit much more interesting than your first. You made it all the way to the door last time, but this time you will get the full tour of the Temple of Xian.
Sights to See
Finally a peek inside the fabled Temple of Xian, the stronghold in which the Tibetan monks are said to have locked away the Dagger of Xian for all time.

Very few creatures make the temple their home, but as you know, nothing comes easy. The monks have no intention of letting the dagger fall into the wrong hands, so almost every inch of the temple is protected by deadly traps. Along with the usual array of spiked pits and trap doors, the temple is also guarded with spiked walls and ceilings that close in, as you might recall from your previous visit to the Great Wall of China. Also the architects of the temple make full use of the geology of the region, as some rooms are filled with deadly lava.

But remember to stop and take in some of the ornate architecture and designs within the temple.
Local Fauna
Once again, you will come across some Siberian tigers, and a similar species of hawk that you encountered in Tibet. If you recall from your last visit to China, you came across some very large spiders. This time, you will encounter a different species of spider, whose coloration is different, but are said to be able to grow to tremendous size under the right conditions. You will also come across an interesting variant of the Chinese carp.
Souvenirs
In your travels through this area, you will want to obtain the dragon seal, which is an intricate design forged from solid gold. You will also want to obtain three keys, all of similar make, but forged from various precious metals.
Hidden Treasures
You will likely not realize that you've missed the first secret until the very end of your stay in the temple. The second is easy enough to spot and get if you take your time. The last is also easy to spot, but it may not be intuitive as to how to obtain it.
Hazards
Traps. Traps. More traps! Enough said.
