In Chapter 1 of Black Myth: Wukong you start in Black Wind Mountain and although the area is large, there is a secret place where you can find a boss. However, it is well hidden. We will show you how to find and challenge Elder Jinchi here.
There are secret bosses in Black Myth Wukong? Yes, there are. We have discovered one so far, but it is quite possible that there are more bosses hidden in the subsequent chapters. These bosses must then be unlocked using a special mechanic so that you can challenge them.
How do I find the secret boss from Chapter 1? To find the boss “Elder Jinchi” (see title picture), you have to ring three bells in Blackwind Mountain. These are well scattered and are also guarded by smaller bosses. We will now show you all the locations of the individual bells. You can quickly get to the individual locations with our directory.

Location of the first bell
Where can I find the first bell? You will find the first bell near the altar “Outside the Forest”. Once you get there, follow the path straight ahead, past the two wolves, until you reach a bridge guarded by another wolf with an axe.
Cross the bridge and keep left at the fork. At the large tree trunk, keep right and walk to where the flame pots are.
Walk past the flame pots until you see a large gate in the distance. Walk in the direction of the gate. You will know you are on the right track when you see a large stone face behind the gate. Go through the gate and defeat the optional boss “Guangzhi” – he is guarding the bell. After the fight you can ring it.
Location of the second bell
Where can I find the second bell? You will find the second bell near the “Snake Path” altar in the bamboo grove. Once you get there, keep to the right and go up the stairs past the old, wise man who will give you the tour.
Now go to the bridge and then jump down halfway from the right side of the bridge. This way you can ignore many enemies. Follow the path further and further down until you reach the bamboo grove.
In the bamboo grove you will see a large stone face. Go there and look straight ahead into the distance, you will find a flame pot. Run to the last flame pot and go past the statues to the mandatory boss “Guangmou” – defeat him.
After defeating Guangmou, go straight until you find the stone stairs. Follow the stairs up to the second bell.
Location of the third bell
Where can I find the third bell? You will find the third bell near the altar “Swamp of the White Mist” in the bamboo grove. You will reach the place after the fight against Guangmou. Once there, follow the path straight past the altar to the gate in front of you.
Past the gate, continue down the path. If you cross the path for the first time, you will hear the merchant Shen-Monkey screaming for help. Defeat the enemy and help your friend. He will then open a shop nearby. After a short chat, you should continue down the path.
When you reach the bottom you will see a swamp and there another boss is waiting for you. The white-robed nobleman challenges you to a fight. Defeat him and follow the path to the left into a large crevice. You will now see a large group of wolf warriors, a hanged wolf and the last bell in the distance. Defeat the enemies and ring the last bell to be teleported to the secret area.
Once you have rung the bell, a small cutscene will appear in which you will be teleported to the “Old Guanyin Temple” area. From there, follow the path further into the temple until you find the secret boss.
Can I miss the secret boss? No. If you’ve completed Chapter 1 and are already in Chapter 2, you can fast travel back to Blackwind Mountain to complete the Puzzle of the Bells, so don’t worry.
Now we come to important information about the boss, as well as his loot and what you should pay attention to.
Secret Boss from Chapter 1 – Rewards and Tactics
Who is the boss? The secret boss of the ancient Guanyin Temple is Elder Jinchi. This greedy villain only cares about himself and will challenge you immediately after a cutscene if he recognizes you.
How do I defeat the secret boss? The best way to defeat Jinchi is to keep moving. Just like the Walking Shadow, he is vulnerable to hard hits, which can throw him off balance.
So hit him in quick succession until he falls to the ground. Now it’s easy for you and you can take his life away with several hits. If you’ve lost a lot of life, you can destroy the golden zombies he summons to regenerate life.
Otherwise, it is advisable to stay at a distance, as he has an attack that causes a large, widespread earthquake. Also use Guangzhi’s transformation “Red Tide” as Jinchi is vulnerable to fire.
What rewards are there?
That was everything you need to know about the bells and the secret boss and area of Chapter 1. Silk is, along with other resources, an important material for building new armor. We’ll show you where you can find silk effectively.
