🐒 THE DESTINED ONE — THE TRUE SECRET ENDING
Did you defeat the final boss of Chapter 6 only to receive the tragic cycle ending? To unlock the True Animated Secret Ending and inherit the legendary Sun Wukong spear, you must conquer Mount Mei and the three-eyed god Erlang Shen.
📍 Location: The Great Pagoda & Mount Mei | ⚔️ Boss: Erlang, the Sacred Divinity | 🏆 Mythical Rewards
Game Science’s smash-hit action RPG Black Myth: Wukong features one of the most intricate and rewarding secret endings in modern gaming. Players who proceed directly through Mount Huaguo and defeat the final stone remnant trigger the standard ending — leaving the Destined One trapped within the eternal golden headband.
To break the karmic cycle and unlock the breathtaking final animated sequence, players across China, the United States, and East Asia must complete a series of hidden questlines spanning all five preceding chapters.
Below is our exhaustive step-by-step walkthrough to fulfilling all prerequisite conditions, reaching the snow-covered peak of Mount Mei, and defeating Erlang Shen.

🏔️ How to Reach Mount Mei & Find Erlang Shen
Once all five secret realms are cleared and all four elemental Vessels are in your inventory:
- Fast Travel to Chapter 3: Travel to the Snowhill Path ➔ The Great Pagoda Shrine.
- Inspect the Murals: Walk up the grand spiral ramp. You will notice that the blank wall panels are now illuminated with colored murals depicting your victories over Elder Jinchi, Fuban, Duskveil, and the Bishui Beast.
- Speak to the Boy Monk (Maitreya): At the center of the hall, the small monk will appear. Speak to him to trigger a cinematic where he touches the central mural, opening the gateway to Mount Mei.
- Ascend the Frozen Ridge: Follow the linear path across the snowy rope bridges until you reach the grand temple courtyard where Erlang, the Sacred Divinity awaits.
⚔️ Erlang Shen Boss Fight: Phase Breakdown & Counter Strategy
Erlang Shen is widely recognized as the single most demanding mechanical challenge in Black Myth: Wukong. He possesses a persistent golden armor shield that deflects standard light attacks.
| Boss Phase | Dangerous Attacks | How to Break Erlang’s Shield |
|---|---|---|
| Phase 1: Humanoid Spear | Teleporting lunges and sweeping laser beam from his forehead eye. | Use the Plantain Fan Vessel immediately. The wind tornado strips his entire armor bar in 4 seconds. |
| Phase 2: Sword Rain Swarm | Summons thousands of floating divine broadswords that rain down in waves. | Equip the Wind Walker / Cloud Step spell to remain invisible during the aerial bombardment. |
| Phase 3: The Celestial Beast | Transforms into a colossal white lion and eagle for cinematic mid-air slams. | Save your Immobilize spell for when he lands; unleash fully charged 4-focus Pillar Stance heavy hits. |
🎁 Mythical Rewards for Conquering the Secret Ending
Defeating Erlang Shen and the four Heavenly Kings that follow unlocks the true ending sequence alongside the most powerful equipment in the game:
- Tri-Point Double-Edged Spear (Mythical Weapon): Erlang’s personal weapon. Grants a custom thrusting stance and shoots penetrating sword beams upon executing combo finishers.
- Azure Dome Transformation: Transforms the Destined One into a stone monkey that can fly and cast earth-shattering AOE ground fissures.
- The 6th Relic (Freed Mind): Completes your sixth relic wheel, unlocking the permanent Sun Wukong Stance for your New Game Plus playthrough.
