How to Complete the Treasure Hunter Quest in Black Myth: Wukong

---

Step 1: Find the Treasure Hunter

To start the quest head to the North Shore of the Bitter Lake in Chapter 3. From the shrine turn around and walk along the shore. You’ll see a red building on a hill. Go through the archway and you’ll spot another building. In front of it, you’ll find the Treasure Hunter being attacked by three enemies.

Take out the three enemies to save the Treasure Hunter. Once they’re down chat with him until he has nothing new to say.

If he’s not there don’t worry. Just move on to the next step.

Step 2: Help the Freezing Treasure Hunter

Next, you need to go to the Valley of Ecstasy. Look for the Forest of Felicity shrine. If you haven’t been there yet follow these directions:

1. Go through the wooden gate near the Forest of Felicity shrine.
2. Keep going until you pass under a second gate.
3. Stop just before a third gate, turn left, and go down the slope.
4. Pass under a fourth gate and you’ll see stairs. The Towers of Karma shrine is at the bottom.

Before you do anything else, equip the Ring of Fire spell. Now turn around and walk forward a bit. You’ll see the Treasure Hunter sitting in a tree to your right. He’s freezing! Cast Ring of Fire in front of him to warm him up.

Talk to him again until he runs out of things to say. This is important! If you skip this, the next part won’t work right.

Step 3: Find the Melon Field

Go back to the Forest of Felicity shrine and continue with the following steps:

1. Walk towards the wooden gate nearby.
2. Just before the gate veer right and go down the slope.
3. At the big pillar go left and down the stairs.
4. Cross the water and turn left and you’ll see an enemy near a cliff.
5. Use the rocks and trees on the cliff to reach the Melon Field shrine.

Step 4: Green-Capped Martialist Boss Fight

Once you activate the Melon Field shrine, enter the arena nearby. This starts a fight with the Green-Capped Martialist. It’s a tricky battle! He vanishes and throws a flaming hoop at you. Bring some fire resistance if you can.

Beat this boss and you’ll get a reward: the Spell Binder spell. You’ll also see a cutscene with the Child Buddha that reveals some interesting story details.

Summary

---

• Always talk to the Treasure Hunter until he’s got no new dialogue.
• Don’t forget to equip Ring of Fire before the second meetup.
