Like any other chapter in Black Myth: Wukong, there are a lot of secrets you can unveil in Chapter 2 of the game. One such secret is the secret area you can access in Chapter 2. Here’s how to access the secret area in Chapter 2 of Black Myth: Wukong.
Black Myth Wukong – Chapter 2 Secret Area Guide
To access the secret area in Chapter 2 of the game, you first need to talk to the Drunken Boar near the Rockrest Flat Shrine. As you head to the left side of the shrine and right of the Rock Crash Platform arena, you will see an enemy guarding the area. Kill the enemy and go past him to find the Boar in the middle of the area. Talk to the Boar, and he will ask you to get him a Sobering Stone. There are two ways you can get a Sobering Stone. These are:
Completing Man-in-Stone’s Questline
If you complete the Man-in-Stone’s questline, where you have to defeat the Mother of Stone boss, you will get yourself a Sobering Stone. You will find the boss inside the cave. Defeat her and go back to the Man-in-Stone. Deliver the Stone Essence to him, allowing him to escape. After doing that, attack him to start the fight and defeat him in a battle. You can then talk to him again to access the shop and get the Sobering Stone from there.
Locating the Sobering Stone
If you’re looking for another way to find a Sobering Stone, then you can get it from a town past the Windrest Bridge. However, you first need to beat the Tiger Vanguard boss. Go past the Crouching Tiger Temple and follow the path till you come across the shrine.
Once you cross the bridge, go to the houses on the left and take a right towards the courtyard. At the end of the courtyard, you will find the Sobering Stone inside a glowing pot in the corner.
Deliver the Sobering Stone to the Drunken Boar
Grab the Sobering Stone and head back to the Drunken Boar. Give the Sobering Stone to him, and he will wander off on his own.
You will then find him at the Crouching Tiger Temple, just to the right of the entrance to the arena where you fight the Tiger Vanguard Boss. Talk to him, and this time, he will ask you to get him Jade Lotus.
Give Jade Lotus to the Drunken Boar
You will already have Jade Lotus on you if you have been collecting it on the way. If not, then you can find it in ponds. Deliver the Jade Lotus to him to progress further. He will then tell you about the Arhat Gold Piece and how you can get it from the First Prince of Flowing Sands boss.
Defeat the First Prince of Flowing Sands
You now have to defeat the First Prince of Flowing Sands boss and get the Arhat Gold Piece. To find the boss, head straight from the Valley of Despair shrine and look down the cliff on your left.
If you have defeated the King of Flowing Sands boss from before, then you will have to summon the boss using a Pungent Flesh Chunk. However, if the King of Flowing Sands survived, he would already be there. He will summon the First Prince of Flowing Sand, who you need to fight to get the Arhat Gold Piece.
Fight the Drunken Boar
Head back to the place where you first met the Drunken Boar and talk to him. He will be jealous that you have the Arhat Gold Piece and will challenge you to a duel.
Take him in a mini-boss fight and defeat him to get access to the Kingdom of Sahali, which is the secret area of this chapter.
The new area will have more boss fights for you to take on, and an important item that you can get will help you in your fight against the final boss of Chapter 2. If you missed out on the secret boss fight of Chapter 1, then take a look at how to get to the secret area in Chapter 1 of Black Myth: Wukong.
