nginx: setting a specific path to different server

I have a single domain name from my university, where I have a service running:

    server {
    listen              443 default_server ssl;
    server_name         example.uni.com;
    keepalive_timeout   70;

    ssl_certificate     xxx.crt;
    ssl_certificate_key xxx.key;


    location / {
        proxy_pass http://localhost:8081;
        proxy_http_version 1.1;
        proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
        proxy_set_header Connection 'upgrade';
        proxy_set_header Host $host;
        proxy_cache_bypass $http_upgrade;
    }


}

What I would like to achieve, is to have the example.uni.com/specificaddress point to a different service running on a different localhost port, without having to modify the service running on 8081 (even nicer would be a specificaddress.example.uni.com, but I believe I cannot do that myself). How would this be possible? Simple creating another server with server_name set to example.uni.com/specificaddress doesn't work unfortunately (not a big suprise, it is handled by the service running on 8081).

You can add a new location block with the proxy pass the different port.

Example

location / {
        proxy_pass http://localhost:8081;
        proxy_http_version 1.1;
        proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
        proxy_set_header Connection 'upgrade';
        proxy_set_header Host $host;
        proxy_cache_bypass $http_upgrade;
}

location /specificaddress {
        proxy_pass http://localhost:8082;
        proxy_http_version 1.1;
        proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
        proxy_set_header Connection 'upgrade';
        proxy_set_header Host $host;
        proxy_cache_bypass $http_upgrade;
}
