Fulminated Mercury can be brought to the Sculptor in the Dilapidated Temple to upgrade Prosthetic Tools. Here are the available upgrades:
Cost | Upgrade Name | Upgrade Meaning |

1 | Leaping Flame | Tier 5 Loaded Spear |
3 | Great Feather Mist Raven | Tier 5 Mist Raven |
2 | Purple Fume Spark | Tier 5 Firecracker |
2 | Suzaku's Lotus Umbrella | Tier 5 Loaded Umbrella |
4 | Lazulite Sabimaru | Tier 6 Sabimaru |
3 | Lazulite Axe | Tier 6 Loaded Axe |
4 | Lazulite Sacred Flame | Tier 6 Flame Barrel |
It can naturally be found at Ashina Outskirts. Killing the Ministry Gunman after being locked out of the area rewards one Fulminated Mercury, as does killing the Gunmen patrolling the area around the Poison Pool idol in Ashina Depths.
To farm Fulminated Mercury, wait until you've obtained the Golden Vortex Tool and the Ministry begins to attack you at the Ashina Castle Idol. Go to the Idol and use a Mibu Possession Balloon to up the item drop rate from enemies.
Run up at the stairs ahead of the idol to the enemies at the top, then use the Golden Vortex to look all the nearby enemies. Head back to the Idol, rest to reset the area, and repeat until you're satisfied with your Fulminated Mercury inventory.
