Black Myth: Wukong - How To Find & Beat Gore-Eye Daoist (Secret Boss)

The Gore-Eye Daoist is a secret boss in who you can try to beat for several rare rewards.

The Tiger Vanguard and Stone Vanguard bosses can both be defeated to drop both keys needed to open Iron Gate. Alternatively, you can try to beat the Second Prince of Flowing Sands, another boss found within Chapter 2, to find a way past the Gate without needing the keys. However, this requires you to travel through the whole Freight Cliff area, which is littered with enemies.

The Freight Cliff where you fight the Second Prince of Flowing Sands can be found within the Valley of Despair Region, so try to travel to a Keeper Shrine within that area to start exploring for a way past the Iron Gates.

Once you find a way to bypass the Gates, you can travel up a set of stone stairs leading toward a Luojia Fragrant Vine Tree. This vegetation in the desert should stand out near the Windseal Gate Shrine due to its bright orange flowers and the
