What are Black Myth: Wukong chapter 2 bosses

In Black Myth: Wukong Chapter 2, players encounter a variety of bosses, each offering unique challenges and rewards. Here’s a brief overview of some notable bosses:

• Lang-Li-Guhh-Baw: A formidable Yaoguai Chief located at Sandgate Village’s Village Entrance.
• Earth Wolf: Another Yaoguai Chief found in the same area, posing a significant threat.
• King of Flowing Sands & Second Rat Prince: These bosses appear together at Sandgate Village’s Valley of Despair, requiring strategic combat.
• Tiger Vanguard: A powerful Yaoguai King encountered at Crouching Tiger Temple’s Temple Entrance.
• Mother of Stones: A Yaoguai Chief found in Fright Cliff’s Squall Hideout, offering a challenging battle.
• Black Loong: A Yaoguai King located at Fright Cliff’s Rockrest Flat, known for its strength.
• Yellow Wind Sage: The final boss of Chapter 2, situated at Yellow Wind Formation’s Windseal Gate, presenting a formidable challenge.

These bosses contribute to the game’s rich narrative and provide players with opportunities to test their combat skills.

All Black Myth: Wukong chapter 2 bosses

Chapter 2 is grander in scale than Chapter 1, with a total of 16 bosses split between both Yaoguai Chiefs and Yaoguai Kings. There’s also a considerably greater number of easily missed and secret boss fights in Chapter 2, including the Mad Tiger; the Buddha’s Eyeball boss known as Shigandang; the powerful Black Loong and Fuban bosses, and more.

Lang-Li-Guhh-Baw

The first boss you’re likely to encounter in Chapter 2 is Lang-Li-Guhh-Baw, a massive frog-like creature that bears a strong resemblance to Baw-Li-Guhh-Lang from Chapter 1. To find this Yaoguai Chief, head right from the “Village Entrance” Keeper’s Shrine in Sandgate Village, drop down, and follow the path into a nearby cave. Inside, you’ll meet Xu Dog, a wolfish NPC in a blue cloak who tasks you with defeating Lang-Li-Guhh-Baw in a clearing just ahead on a lower level.

If you’ve previously battled Baw-Li-Guhh-Lang, this fight will feel familiar, with similar back-kick and tongue-based attacks. However, Lang-Li-Guhh-Baw’s moves now feature lightning damage, and it can summon tracking lightning sparks that force you to dodge carefully. Defeating this boss and returning to Xu Dog rewards you with the ability to craft consumable medicines at Shrines.

Location: Sandgate Village / Village Entrance

Earth Wolf

The Earth Wolf is located behind the main gate near the “Village Entrance” Shrine, but you won’t be able to access it from there right away. Instead, take the alternate route by heading left inside the cave where Xu Dog is, then follow the path that leads to a larger open area guarded by two-headed Rat Captains. Stick close to the left wall, and you’ll eventually come across an opening that leads to the other side of the gate, where the Earth Wolf roams.

This beast fights like other large, slow enemies you may have faced before, using swipes and charging attacks. To stay safe, use Pillar Stance to keep your distance, and make good use of Immobilize to pin it down while unloading your strongest abilities. Defeating the Earth Wolf lets you absorb its Spirit through the Blessed Gourd.

Location: Sandgate Village / Village Entrance

King + Second Prince Of Flowing Sands

One of the first major challenges you’ll face in Chapter 2 is the dual boss battle against the King of Flowing Sands and his son, the Second Prince of Flowing Sands. You’ll find them past the double doors in Sandgate Village, in the same area where the two-headed Rat Captains roam (or used to, if you’ve already defeated them). Entering the arena triggers a lengthy cutscene, followed by a tag-team battle.

The Second Prince, being the larger of the two, delivers most of the aggressive, close-range attacks, while the smaller King hangs back, throwing ranged projectiles to break your combos and keep you off balance. It’s a tricky pairing, but your best bet is to focus on the Second Prince first. Defeating him will cause the King to retreat, ending the fight. However, if you take out the King first, the Second Prince becomes much stronger, making the battle significantly harder.

Location: Sandgate Village / Valley Of Despair

First Prince Of Flowing Sands

If you thought the Second Prince was formidable, wait until you meet his older brother — the First Prince of Flowing Sands. He can be found just a short distance along the left-hand path from the Valley of Despair, the same area where you faced the King and Second Prince. If you spared the King, he will attempt a blood ritual to awaken the First Prince — only to be swiftly killed and devoured by his own son. Not the wisest plan.

Despite his intimidating size, the First Prince is slow and predictable. Don’t let his bulk scare you — stay aggressive and watch for his clearly telegraphed attacks, which are easy to dodge with proper timing. Interestingly, you can use the First Prince to smash through a terracotta wall on the left side of the arena. Behind it lies a unique item tied to unlocking multiple secret bosses. If he doesn’t destroy the wall for you, don’t worry — you can still break it using the Wandering Wight Spirit ability or the Azure Dust transformation.

Location： Sandgate Village / Valley Of Despair

Tiger Vanguard

The Tiger Vanguard is the first Yaoguai King you’ll encounter in Chapter 2, and he puts up a serious fight. To locate him, proceed through the cave behind the First Prince’s arena in the Valley of Despair. Cross the small slanted bridge at the end of the cave, slip through the narrow gap, and follow the right-hand path in the next chamber. You’ll soon reach the “Temple Entrance” Shrine outside Crouching Tiger Temple. From there, it’s a straight climb up the temple steps to the boss.

Despite his size, the Tiger Vanguard is surprisingly agile, with deadly lunging sword strikes that can deal massive damage in a single blow. Patience is key here. To turn the tide, consider using the Red Tides spell to temporarily transform and unleash a reckless burst of offense using a risk-free health bar. Defeating him rewards you with the Keeness of Tiger, a unique item required to unlock certain doors later in the game.

Location: Crouching Tiger Temple / Temple Entrance

Tiger’s Acolyte

Following your battle with the powerful Tiger Vanguard, the Tiger’s Acolyte—another Yaoguai Chief—should pose less of a threat. To locate him, continue past the Crouching Tiger Temple into the Yellow Wind Formation area. The path is mostly straightforward; keep moving forward until you reach the bridge just beyond the “Windrest Hamlet” Shrine, where the Acolyte awaits.

While the Tiger’s Acolyte shares the Vanguard’s mastery of the sword and executes graceful yet deadly attack combos, he’s far less durable. With significantly lower health, you can unleash your full arsenal to finish him off swiftly. Defeating him earns you the Old Rattle-Drum, a unique item tied to a specific Chapter 2 questline, which connects to the Mad Tiger later in the story.

Location: Yellow Wind Formation / Windrest Hamlet

Stone Vanguard

The Stone Vanguard is uniquely positioned at the crossroads of two region paths, giving players two ways to reach it. One route is to continue past the Tiger’s Acolyte, progressing through the entire Yellow Wind Formation until you find a ledge that drops into the boss arena. The other option is to head right from the Valley of Despair (where the King and Second Prince fight takes place), travel through the Fright Cliff region, and reach the same arena from the opposite side—an impressive bit of level design.

Compared to the Tiger Vanguard, the Stone Vanguard is noticeably slower, making its attacks easier to dodge. Even its “special” move, where it summons minions that leap at you, isn’t too difficult to handle. The only real challenge is its large health pool, requiring patience to whittle down. Upon defeating it, you’ll obtain the Sterness of Stone, which—when used with the Keeness of Tiger—lets you:

• Open the main door in the King and Second Prince’s arena.
• Activate the tally beside the giant Buddha statue in the Tiger Vanguard’s area.

Both paths eventually converge and lead to the final story boss of Chapter 2: the Yellow Wind Sage. But before that, several other foes still await.

Location: Fright Cliff / Rock Clash Platform

Gore-Eye Daoist

The Gore-Eye Daoist is a relatively minor Yaoguai Chief, even though he appears later in Chapter 2. You can reach him via two paths: one is by unlocking the main door near the “Valley of Despair” Shrine (after defeating both Vanguard bosses) and following the bridge; the other route takes you through the Stone Vanguard’s arena, past the “Rock Clash Platform” Shrine, then turning right and sliding down the sand path to the “Windseal Gate” Shrine. From there, cross the bridge and climb the hill to find him in a small clearing—both routes converge at this location.

As for the fight itself, the Gore-Eye Daoist isn’t particularly challenging. Despite his flashy attacks involving poisonous blood, he’s no tougher than many standard enemies, so you should be able to dispatch him quickly and continue onward.

Location：Sandgate Village / Valley Of Despair

Mother Of Stones

The Mother of Stones is a large, hidden boss essential to the Man-In-Stone questline, though she doesn’t appear in the player’s Journal. To find her, enter the cave at the center of the Fright Cliff region and take a left just before exiting. This leads to an upper cave level where the Mother of Stones can be found resting in a corner.

The fight is unusual but fairly straightforward. Instead of attacking directly, the Mother of Stones summons waves of rocky minions to distract you. However, these are just a distraction—ignore them, dodge their attacks, and focus on attacking the Mother of Stones. Once defeated, she drops the Stone Essence, which you can give to the Man-In-Stone to advance his quest.

Location: Fright Cliff / Squall Hideout

Man-In-Stone

The Man-In-Stone is an NPC who technically isn’t a true boss, but since he has a boss health bar, he’s worth mentioning. You can find him and start his quest by taking the lower path through the rocks to the right of the “Squall Hideout” Shrine in Fright Cliff. He’s trapped inside a rock—hence his name—and asks you to defeat the Mother Of Stones to free him.

When you return with the Stone Essence, he suddenly bursts from the ground, revealing he tricked you and only wanted the item. You can then (and should) fight him. Despite his provocations, he’s easy to defeat due to his small health bar, allowing you to quickly take him down before he can cause much harm. After beating him, he surrenders, and following an area reset, he becomes a vendor. You’ll also earn the Azure Dust transformation spell as a reward.

Location: Fright Cliff / Squall Hideout

Yellow Wind Sage

The Yellow Wind Sage is the final major story boss of Chapter 2 and likely the most challenging Yaoguai you’ll encounter in this chapter, so make sure you’re well-prepared before facing him. To reach the Yellow Wind Sage, you can take either of these two routes:

• Interact with the Tally in the Tiger Vanguard arena (after collecting both the Keeness Of Tiger and Sterness Of Stone items) and descend into the Cellar region.
• Head to the “Windseal Gate” Shrine, past the Stone Vanguard or the Gore-Eye Daoist, and pass through the large double doors.

Both paths lead to the same expansive desert area, where entering the sandstorm at the end triggers the battle with the powerful Yellow Wind Sage. This boss combines the speed of the Tiger Vanguard with the strength of the Stone Vanguard, but his most dangerous trait is his difficult-to-dodge wind-based attacks. Because of this, it’s strongly recommended to first defeat Fuban, a secret boss in the chapter, who drops an anti-wind vessel that helps counteract foes like the Yellow Wind Sage.

Location: Crouching Tiger Temple / Cellar

Shigandang (secret boss)

Shigandang is a hidden boss located in the same arena as the Stone Vanguard, at the far end of Fright Cliff. To unlock him, you must gather all six Buddha’s Eyeballs scattered across Fright Cliff, each taken from giant Buddha head statues. The six Buddha’s Eyeballs are found at these spots:

• Near the start of Fright Cliff, just before the “Squall Hideout” Shrine.
• Inside the cave along the left path from the “Squall Hideout” Shrine.
• On the wooden platforms overlooking the path to Man-In-Stone.
• On the upper path to the left of the Man-In-Stone route.
• On the balcony to the right of the Mother Of Stones boss arena.
• To the left of the “Rockrest Flat” Shrine.

Once you collect all six, bring them to the large boulder in the Stone Vanguard arena. You can interact with the boulder to insert the Eyeballs, which causes it to rise and transform into Shigandang, the secret Yaoguai King. This fight resembles the Stone Vanguard battle but features a stronger opponent. Shigandang is large, slow, and powerful, with his most dangerous attacks being shockwaves caused by slamming or pulling his fists from the ground.

Location: Fright Cliff / Rock Clash Platform

Mad Tiger (secret boss)

The Mad Tiger is a Yaoguai Chief that can only be accessed by completing the Old Rattle-Drum questline. If you’re unfamiliar, defeating the Tiger’s Acolyte rewards you with the Old Rattle-Drum item. After that, visiting three specific locations in sequence lets you interact with a child’s spirit who guides you to the hidden Mad Tiger boss.

The three spots where you need to use the Old Rattle-Drum are:

• The right area filled with corpses in Windrest Hamlet.
• Just past the main doors you unlock in the Valley Of Despair, on the right side.
• Near the well at the far end of the Earth Wolf arena.

Once you play the Old Rattle-Drum at all three sites, the child appears beside the well and jumps in, inviting you to follow. Interact with the well to descend into a new zone called the “Bottom Of The Well,” where you’ll face the Mad Tiger.

This boss is extremely agile and has some very powerful attacks, each capable of dealing over half your health in one hit. The Mad Tiger is meant to be fought late in Chapter 2, after you’ve maxed out your stats and unlocked many skills. Use a combination of Immobilize, Red Tides, and A Pluck Of Many spells to quickly reduce the Mad Tiger’s health and control the battle from the start.

Location: Sandgate Village / Bottom Of The Well

Yellow-Robed Squire (secret boss)

When you first encounter the boar-faced Yellow-Robed Squire, he appears as a passive NPC rather than an enemy. You’ll find him resting in a clearing at the far end of Rockrest Flat, too drunk to stand. His questline unlocks the chance to fight three new bosses, including himself. Here’s what you need to do:

• Obtain a Sobering Stone from Windrest Hamlet or buy it from the Man-In-Stone’s shop.
• Give the Sobering Stone to the Yellow-Robed Squire.
• Head to the Crouching Tiger Temple and talk to the Squire there.
• Deliver a Jade Lotus to him at the temple.
• Return to Rockrest Flat and approach the Squire while he’s pacing nearby.

Once you complete these steps, the Yellow-Robed Squire will attack you when you approach. Defeat him, and impressed by your strength, he will invite you to follow him through the double doors behind where you fought. Passing through these doors leads you into Chapter 2’s secret area, where the next two bosses on this list await!

Location: Fright Cliff / Rockrest Flat

“Tiger Vanguard” (secret boss)

The “Tiger Vanguard” is a different version of the original Tiger Vanguard, found shortly after entering the secret area unlocked through the Yellow-Robed Squire’s questline. If you haven’t done so, check the instructions above to learn how to challenge this boss!

This variant is thankfully easier than the original but still shares many of the same characteristics and attacks, including impressive agility and powerful combo moves. However, with spells like A Flock Of Many available to you, it should be manageable to overpower the Vanguard and gain access beyond the gate he protects.

Location: Secret: Kingdom Of Sahālī / Sandgate Pass

Fuban (secret boss)

Fuban is the main boss and Yaoguai King of the secret area unlocked through the Yellow-Robed Squire’s quest. In this memory realm, you team up with the Yellow Wind Sage to battle Fuban, a massive sand beetle that menaces the desert. To start the fight, head to the hill near the Yellow Wind Sage, next to a large drum, just beyond the “Tiger Vanguard.”

The battle with Fuban is fairly straightforward and scripted. Initially, you fight the beetle alone, focusing on its legs since they are the only parts that can be damaged. Fuban attacks with slow but powerful slams, which are relatively easy to dodge. In the next phase, you climb onto Fuban’s back to destroy a vessel it carries, allowing the Yellow Wind Sage to join the fight and help defeat Fuban quickly.

Defeating this secret Yaoguai King rewards you with a Vessel that counters wind-based attacks, making it extremely useful for the final battle against the Yellow Wind Sage at the end of Chapter 2.

Location: Secret: Kingdom Of Sahālī / Sandgate Bound

Black Loong (secret boss)

The last boss on our Chapter 2 list is Black Loong, a stealthy Yaoguai King hidden behind a “sandfall” to the right of the Rockrest Flat Shrine. To face this boss, you must first obtain a special item called the Loong Scale, which also grants access to the Red Loong boss in Chapter 1’s Forest of Wolves. Below, we explain how to acquire the Loong Scale and locate and defeat Black Loong.

How to Get the Loong Scale

To unlock the Black Loong fight, you need to break a clay wall on the left side of the First Prince boss arena in the Valley of Despair. Regular attacks won’t break it, but you can:

• Get the First Rat Prince to strike the wall.
• Use the Wandering Wight Spirit’s attack on it.
• Slam the wall using the Azure Dust form (obtained by completing the Man-In-Stone questline).

Once the wall cracks, interact with it to enter a hidden room where a chest holds the Loong Scale.

Where to Find Black Loong

With the Loong Scale in hand, go to the large sand waterfall right of the Rockrest Flat Shrine in Fright Cliff. Using the Loong Scale will clear the sand, revealing the Black Loong boss arena.

Unlike the Red Loong, the Black Loong appears humanoid but large and beastly, fitting its draconic Yaoguai King status. While its powerful attacks are generally dodgeable, it has a tricky move where it repeatedly slams the ground, sending out electric shockwaves that are hard to avoid. The best strategy is to climb onto a nearby rock, where you can stay safe until the attack ends, then return to finish the fight.

Location： Fright Cliff / Hidden Loong Cavern
