When you get to the spooky version of the Ghostlight Market, talk to Liu Changsheng near the stairs leading to the street. He will ask you to find three items: a suit of armor, a helmet and a spear. Find the armor, then start at the starting point go to the right. Keep following the green lanterns until you find a Boundary Stone and Chang Shengmember of the Nine Mortal Ways sect i WWM.
