How to Get the Ashen Slumber Transformation in Black Myth: Wukong

Getting the Ashen Slumber transformation involves steps in Chapter 2 and Chapter 3 of Black Myth: Wukong.

Step 1: Talk to the Mysterious Hut Dweller

Head to Sandgate Village in Chapter 2. From the Village Entrance Shrine, follow these steps:

1. Go straight through the village entrance
2. Keep going until you start climbing uphill and take a left turn
3. Look for a small hut with a barricaded door
4. Talk to whoever’s inside until you’ve exhausted all dialogue options.

Step 2: Defeat Captain Lotus-Vision

The next task is to find and defeat Captain Lotus-Vision to get his spirit in Chapter 3. Here are the steps to complete this task:

1. Travel to the Pagoda Realm and make your way to the Upper Pagoda Keeper’s Shrine
2. Inside, look down to spot statues on the ground
3. Carefully drop down and approach the big entity in the arena
4. Prepare for a fight against Captain Lotus-Vision
5. Dodge laser beams and projectiles, and use your spells and skills to take them down
6. Once defeated, absorb Captain Lotus-Vision’s spirit.

Step 3: Claim the Ashen Slumber Transformation

Now that you have Captain Lotus-Vision’s spirit, it’s time to claim your reward.

This spirit is the key to unlocking the Ashen Slumber transformation. It breaks the magical seals in the Pagoda Realm, allowing you to access areas that were previously blocked off:

• Head to the Lower Pagoda Keeper’s Shrine and make your way back to where you started in the Pagoda Realm.
• You’ll notice the purple seals on nearby doors are now gone. This is thanks to Captain Lotus-Vision’s spirit, which has dispelled the enchantments.

Open the door next to your cell and look for a body on the right. Interact with it to finally claim the Ashen Slumber transformation.
