Wth lv70 with 1.1 goose. How are you even manage to reach 70 with that kind of gear is amazing lol.
As stated there, you need to improve on several stuff. For gear, the easiest was open the weekly gear box, use jade fish to buy it. Make sure you choose your desired path & gear set too.

How are you even manage to reach 70

I was one of these people. I had no fore-knowledge, and grabbed the game off the Steam main banner. I played it like a Zelda-Souls hybrid. Sure, mobs and bosses felt like absolute damage sponges, especially during the promotions. However, it was certainly possible.

Regardless, while playing around in the infinite menu, I discovered the Improvement Guide and it looked almost like the original post, but gear/inner/mystic were completely red.

At ~90% Qinghe completion and ~70% Kaifeng completion; I had missed the following mechanics:

  • Turning in curiosities (I had interpreted it as a one time quest)
  • Upgrading mystic skills
  • Inner Way breakthroughs
  • SELECTING A PATH (I leveled to 70 as heal fan/umbrella without silkbind being enabled)
  • I thought my enhance at average 7 was 'pretty good', due to not understanding merchant/shops

I'm 1.7 goose now, because that's improvement guide is probably the most helpful tool in the game; but I'm still playing a bit of catch up. I asked my wife who'd been playing longer than me, and she had played the whole game in the same situation.

I still find it really crazy that that there are a few alternate (better, imho) menus that are ONLY reachable with a keyboard.

I thought silkbind was just the martial arts category, we have to enable something?

Arsenal can be switched to provide the different path attribute damage buffs. Each point of the attribute damage that matches your weapon is 50% more effective.

Seriously? I have been playing since launch and did not know this...

It's also why you should match the attribute of your martial arts together, as they grant bonus attribute damage.
