Devil May Cry 4/Profession of Faith

Ancient Training Ground
Follow the path ahead, making sure to collect all of the red orbs out of the chimera eggs at the side of the path and the blue orb fragment under the bridge. It is also possible to head back one screen to the den of the she-viper for a few more orbs and some chimera seeds but this is optional.

Ancient Plaza
A cut scene will play introducing a new enemy, the reptilian assualts. These enemies have a range of close quarters and ranged attacks so are quite dangerous foes. there are about five in this area and killing them will unseal the exit. There are also a number of the chimera eggs holding red orbs clinging to the outer walls and onto the tree trunks near the centre.

Ruined Church
Head through the windswept valley back up to the ruined church where the chimera were on the previous mission. The orbs behind the mirrors will have respawned, as have the ones in the corners of the valley outside. This time, approach the mass of red tentacles that block the exit on the lower floor which will open now the sephorcic fruit is possessed.

Lost Woods
Initially this section seems quite confusing. The lost woods consists of a 4 way crossroads with a statue in the centre. Heading in the right direction will bring up an identical screen, giving the impression of no progress being made. Heading in the wrong direction will drop nero down into the hidden pit. After choosing the wrong path, the central pillar will light a coloured fire which provides a clue about darkness and light. To pass this section, look at the shadows cast by the arches that light each exit. The correct path will always have the sunlight shining from it, so the shadows will point back towards the centre. Also the centre statue will cast a shadow which points the direction opposite the correct one. The sequence to pass the woods is to go straight ahead the first time, then left and finally right. Or using the mini map, it is east, north and then south. There is occasionally some more orbs hidden in eggs at the side of the paths here.

Forgotten Ruins/Ancient Training Ground
This is now the upper level of the Forgotten Ruins which led to the Den of She-Viper in the last mission. There is nothing here so move on to the Ancient Training Ground. Here there are some minor enemies to deal with and a divinity statue to stock up on Viatl Stars. The eggs oppposite the statue contain a large green orb to restore your health.

Gran Album Bridge
Dash across the bridge up to the large circular area to trigger a cut scene which leads to the boss fight.
