Black Myth: Wukong ‘s Yaoguai Kings make up the game’s most challenging boss fights , although very few are friendly like the Bull King. They are also unique in that almost every one of them is mentioned at some point in Journey to the West . While there are a total of 26 Yaoguai Kings in Black Myth Wukong maps Myth: Wukong , the following comprise the best p

Yaoguais toe the line between being human and non-human in their appearance and stature. Generally written into stories as antagonists, their existence is largely inspired by the fear of the unknown. Every enemy and boss in Black Myth: Wukong is a yaoguai that possesses supernatural abilities like shapeshifting , creating illusions, and causing disease or poisoning, and each of them takes on a form that is a blend of both the natural and the unnatural. Very infrequently are they the protagonists of a story, except characters like Sun Wukong, the Monkey King from Journey to the West who Black Myth: Wukong ‘s Destined One is based on and who is also technically a yaoguai himself — though he is known to use the term in a derogatory manner to insult his f

Erlang will then transform into a giant, leonine beast, and the Destined One will need to defeat him in a one-on-one duel. Finishing this secret boss fight unlocks a new ending cinematic that opens with the Destined One kneeling before the Old Monkey, immediately after having defeated Sun Wukong. His eyes open widely as an animated scene begins, recapping highlights from Journey to the West in reverse order. This signifies the Destined One gaining Sun Wukong’s memories , becoming the Monkey King in more than just n

At this point, things become tricky as the boss begins to fight back. Try to land enough heavy attacks to knock the boss over , where it will thrash on the ground helplessly as you attack it some more. Save your mana for another Immobilize at the perfect opportunity as you wait for an opening between the boss’ deadly attack patte

The Tiger Relic is a soak obtained by draining the blood pool in the Tiger Vanguard’s boss room and heading beneath that area. To do this, you’ll need to defeat the Tiger Vanguard and the Stone Vanguard, retrieving masks from them that can be placed on the statue in front of the pool. Once this is done, the pool will drain and you can head down. When you reach the section where you slide down towards the Cellar Shrine, you’ll need to jump and perform a heavy attack while sliding to gain the height and distance to reach the platform where the relic is found.

As one of the toughest bosses in Chapter 1, it is integral to devise a combat strategy to overcome him. Fortunately, players can utilize many skills, abilities, and even some items to gain the upper h

The Wandering Wight is an optional boss you might find in **Black Myth: Wukong ** and try to beat as you explore map areas in Chapter 1. This Yaoguai Chief enemy is extremely challenging since you don’t have many skills or abilities when you encounter it early in the game. This opponent drops an item that yields a new transformation, so you’ll want to defeat the boss at some po

When you enter a Keeper’s Shrine, select the “Make Medicines” option to start crafting. As you gain more formulas, you’ll be able to make more medicines using the various plant life you harvest during your travels.

The Copper Pill Soak can be found after defeating the Tiger Vanguard. You can find it in a container just down the path past the Tiger Vanguard Boss Room. (You can’t miss it, it’s the one with the blood pool) Take out the rat with the shield nearby and pop open the golden container to nab the Copper Pill .

The Laurel Buds are the first new soak in Chapter 2 and can be found in a container, in front of a statue on an altar, in Sandgate Village. A Rat Governor is guarding it , but that shouldn’t be much of a problem as long as you get in close before it can start shooting lightning at you. Cloud Step will make it easy to get close. The closest Shrine to the soak is the Village Entrance Shrine. You can drop off the bridge just ahead of the shrine and head into the cave on the right, then up the stairs on the left side of the cave and follow the path into the village to find the Governor and the container with the soak inside.
