Mind Cores can be acquired in several ways. The easiest way, however, is to get them by interacting with shrines, specifically the first shrines you find at the start of each chapter. The items can be found in the shop section of each shrine, and they are sold for a modest sum.

Each shrine in every chapter has some you can purchase, but because they are only needed from chapter two onwards, some may miss the Mind Cores in older shrines. As such, you should check older shrines to ensure you don’t miss any. Another quick but more challenging way of getting Mind Cores is by defeating bosses. This includes major bosses such as Lingxuzi, Black Bear Guai, and Yellow Wind Sage.

It also includes minor bosses such as Red Loong in chapter one and the Tiger and Stone Vanguards in chapter two. Some tough enemies that aren’t bosses also hold Mind Cores, but these are rarer to encounter. Mind Cores can also be found in chests throughout several locations in the game across almost all chapters, but they are very rare. However, some chapters like fifth one have several chests holding the item. 

Mind Cores are items used to acquire upgrades via Celestial Medicines, which you get from Xu Dog at the Crouching Tiger Temple. You can find his shop in chapter two after completing his first quest, which you get upon arriving at Sandgate Village. He asks you to kill the nearby giant frog and this unlocks access to his shop. The item can then be used to unlock upgrades such as increased Maximum Health, Stamina, and Mana.
