During Subquests, you will sometimes have to fight a boss while doing the quest. This page will pertain to the fight against Qing Long.
Where to Find Qing Long¶
Qing Long is a demon that is a part of The Gold Dragon’s Arrival quest. While you can log this quest at a low level, you will not be able to do battle with Qing Long until much later in the game, as he is level 45 (the highest of the four). You will find Qing Long in the eastern end of the Hamamatsucho area of Minato. From the Hamamatsucho Leyline, head southeast until you can reach the eastern end of the area. Go to the cliffside and you should see the dragon flying around there. Note that it flies over an area you can’t reach, so you will have to wait until it goes over land before triggering the battle.

Qing Long is the highest level out of the four demons you face during the quest, and could be the most challenging, as he has access to two elements, Ice and Force. Thankfully, he only seems to uses Wind Breath as his Magatsuhi charge maneuver, so you can easily just toss a Force Dampener on your party to negate it. Just to be on the safe side, though, make sure both elements are at least neutral for your entire party, to avoid any random happenings. You also won’t be able to use those same two elements, as Qing Long resists Ice and blocks Wind, but everything else is fair game, especially the weakness of Electric. The only problem with the recommended party is that none of them learn anything Electric naturally, so you will have to add those skills to the skillset.
Apart from the Ice and Force, you will also see Qing Long use Matarunda to lower your party’s attack. This will make the battle last longer, but you can simply counter it with Matarukaja, if you have it. Alternatively, you could also use Rakunda on the boss to reduce its defenses. Honestly, at this point in the game, debuffs are always going to be welcome in tougher battles like this, so you should have some way to always inflict them. Eat Whole, while it may do decent damage to a single character, doesn’t seem to give Qing Long much HP back, so the drain portion shouldn’t really be a factor at all. Qing Long is also weak to Sleep, so you could put him to sleep right before your round is over to hopefully make him skip over his turns.
