Snowhill Path
From the searing deserts of Yellow Wind Ridge, your next step is a jaunt through the brisk Snowhill Path. Brisk both in temperature and speed, because there isn’t much at all to this first region of Chapter 3. Keep an eye out for a handful of Chests and a Meditation Point at the edge of the frozen lake at Mirrormere, but otherwise there’s not much to do except push onward through the two main story bosses - theMacaque Chief, andKang-Jin Loong.
Pagoda Realm
Bitter Lake
Once you’re (at long last) free from the Pagoda Realm, you’ll emerge at the South Shore Of The Bitter Lake. This region marks the mid-point of Chapter 3, and it’s home to four bosses, of which the most dangerous is probably the optionalCyan Loongon Turtle Island (which you need the Loong Scales item from Chapter 2 to summon).
There’s another important Loong you’ll encounter on the North Shore -Chen Loong, who in fact becomes an NPC with a shortquestlineafter you defeat him with the help of Zhu Bajie. Complete this mini-questline and you’ll unlock Zodiac Village - a hub area where all the different NPC vendors will conglomerate for the rest of the game. There’s also a new NPC -Yin Tiger, who can improve your weapons. He’s also up for a duel if you like, although I’d be careful. He’s a strong contender for the most challenging boss in Chapter 3.
Valley Of Ecstasy
In order to enter the Valley Of Ecstasy, you need to interact with the four hidden Buddha statues at the Precept Corridor. After that, the game dispenses with the previous linear level design from earlier in Chapter 3, in favour of some much wider more open terrain where it’s far easier to get lost.
New Thunderclap Temple
Beyond the Valley Of Ecstasy is the final (main) region of Chapter 3: New Thunderclap Temple, home of the dangerous Yaoguai KingYellowbrow. You’ll need to defeatCaptain Kalpa-Waveto gain admittance to the Temple, and after that it’s well worth exploring every nook and cranny for the three optional bosses, as well as the reappearance of Ma Tianba, everyone’s favourite horse-man.
Secret: Mount Mei
A brief word on Chapter 3’s ultra-secret region: Mount Mei is home toBlack Myth: Wukong’s secret ending. You can only access it once you’ve completed all the secrets areas in Chapters 1-5, as well as finishing the Treasure Hunter questline in this Chapter. But after that, if you wish, you can enter Mount Mei via the Great Pagoda, and test yourself against the most challenging boss in the game.
