The last chapter of Black Myth: Wukong Contains only one soak. It is said to soak Flower primesShane is added to Monkey's shop at the beginning of Chapter 6. Flower Primes will remove any and all Four Banes effects from the Destined One each time they take a sip, acting as a great counter to any enemy that can run multiple elements. While there are a few such enemies in the game, they are the strongest. Even when going up against an enemy that uses only one element, it remains a great emergency option for removing negative effects.

The last two wets in the game, Graceful Orchid and Guanyin's Willow Leaf, require you to complete a few extra steps before you can add them to your collection.


Beautiful orchid

Wide shot of Zodiac Village in Black Myth Wukong

The Beautiful orchidThe Rui Scroll can be obtained in the Zodiac Village, after talking to Chen Loong and giving him all 15 possible seeds. Since these seeds are, for the most part, obtained randomly from picking plants in the game's six chapters, it can be rather difficult.

After collecting all the seeds and handing them to Chen Lung, you will receive the Graceful Orchid Soak, which allows Destiny to regenerate more health over time after taking a sip. It is functionally identical Celestial lotus seedHowever the Graceful Orchid lasts longer and restores more health.


Guanine willow leaf

Guanyin Temple in Black Myth Wukong

Guanine willow leaf Can only be found during New Game Plus, so you need to beat the game and enter a new cycle before trying to collect it. This soak can then be purchased from Shane the Monkey when you meet him again on a new cycle. Guanyin's Willow Leaf will restore the use of the Destined One's Gourd when resurrected during combat, apparently intended to be used with the life-saving Strand spell. This can be used in conjunction with the aforementioned spell to completely reset the Destined One to full power in the middle of battle, should he be defeated, though this means channeling the raw power offered by Pluck of Money.


Beyond its gameplay utility, this last soak also raises an interesting question. The Bodhisattva Guanyin is a major character in Journey to the West, yet he is barely mentioned. Black Myth: Wukong. Aside from a brief appearance at the end of Chapter 1, and a mention in Black Bear Gui's journal entry, she is surprisingly absent from the story. Maybe a future DLC will reveal her current location.
