The Forest of Wolves is the first area you’ll explore in Black Myth Wukong. It’s packed with secrets bosses and important items. This guide will help you navigate the Forest of Wolves and complete this quest in Black Myth: Wukong.
As you begin your adventure you’ll face a few easy fights. Don’t worry about these early enemies. Just use your light attacks to defeat them. Make sure to grab the ginseng plant before moving on.
You’ll soon reach a fork in the road. Both paths lead to the same place but taking the right path first will get you to a chest. There’s also an optional enemy nearby if you want some extra experience.
Continue and you’ll find a shrine with an interesting old man. Cross the bridge and look for a path leading left and down. This path goes under the bridge.
Here you’ll spot a suspicious character disappearing into the forest. Once it’s gone check the spot to find a Skandha of Form. This seems to be an important item so don’t miss it.
Head down to the river where you’ll face a frog soldier. Be careful when his health gets low – he’ll explode if you’re too close. Further down the river, you’ll find a Jade Lotus and a tough crow-like enemy. Use your dodge skills to avoid damage in this fight.
Your first major challenge is the Bullguard boss. He’s not too tough but he can still be tricky. Watch out for his charge attacks and overhead swings. A good strategy is to use a light attack light attack heavy attack combo to stagger him.
After beating the Bullguard you’ll get the Immobilize Spell. This will be handy in future fights.
The next area starts with you turning into a Cicada. This transformation is brief so be careful not to change back near enemies. Explore thoroughly to find Purple Lingzhi Ginseng and other items.
You’ll encounter a tough enemy guarding a chest. Take your time with this fight and use your freeze spell when you can. There’s also a Ginseng monster nearby that looks like a normal plant at first. It’s easy to beat if you wait for it to finish its attack combo.
As you near the waterfall you’ll face another crow enemy. He’s tough but gives good rewards. Look for Jade Lotus in the water near the falls.
Be careful of the ranged enemy on the bridge. Use your staff to block his attacks as you approach.
Now you have a choice: cross the bridge to face the boss Guangzhi or run past the Wandering Wight enemy to reach the next shrine where you can craft armor.
Guangzhi is a challenging boss with fire-based attacks. Watch out for his multiple swing combos and charge attacks.
Use cooling powder if you have it to deal with the fire damage. Be patient and look for openings after his attack sequences.
After beating Guangzhi head to Guanyin Temple. Explore the area for items including Nine-Capped Lingzhi and a chest with common items.
You’ll find another shrine here where you can craft armor.
The final challenge in this area is Lingxuzi. He’s a tough fight but his attacks have clear tells. Watch his body language to predict when he’s about to strike. When he jumps to the roof be ready to dodge his pounce attack.
Use your spells and transformations wisely in this fight. When Lingxuzi stops to lick his paw that’s your chance to get some good hits in.
After beating Lingxuzi explore the temple thoroughly. You’ll find some useful items including a health boost in one of the pots. This marks the end of the Forest of Wolves area. From here you’ll move on to the next region Bamboo Grove.
Remember to take your time explore thoroughly and don’t be discouraged if you die. That’s part of the learning process in games like Black Myth Wukong. Good luck on your journey through the Forest of Wolves!
