Once you’ve entered the Shrine and initiated the fight, Lingxuzi will drop down from the roof ahead of you. He will then lunge forward, swiping his massive claw in your direction. Jump back and roll to avoid being hit. Then you may start attacking him with your staff. Hisgrab-plunge attackis the hardest to dodge, so stay alert. If you see him running toward a wall, you can bet he’s about to launch into his grab-plunge attack. Another attack to look out for is hishowl attack, where Lingxuzi howls and knocks players back, dealing minor damage.

Description

Lunge Swipe

Lingxuzi rears back and then lunges forward while swiping his right paw and sometimes his left paw in a second attack. He then backflips away.

Swiping Claw & Lunge Bite

Lingxuzi holds his right claw back and then swipes it in front. He then rears back on his feet with both paws raised and lunges forward to bite.

Slow Pounce

Lingxuzi slowly runs and hops forward, leaping into the air and pouncing towards the player. He slashes his claws horizontally.

Rooftop Lunge

Lingxuzi jumps onto rooftops and leaps between them, circling the player until he lunges off and pounces. Temporarily breaks the ground on impact.

Any of these attacks can be dodged by simply anticipating the move and then making sure to eitherkeep a distance or dodge-rollin the opposite direction of Lingxuzi’s attacks.

The best way to beat Lingxuzi is tocounter his attacks and use any fire abilities you have, such as your transformation art. Immobilize will end combo attacks early and allow a small window to attack him without him attacking back. Use your jump attacks as much as you can to close in the distance and get some hits on him. Keep your eyes on him as Lingxuzi is prone to losing his balance after a few attacks, giving you another opening to attack him.

Once you’ve beat him, you’ll berewarded with around 700 Will, a Gray Wolf Mask, and a Celestial Jade Lotus Pill. Use the Celestial Jade Lotus Pill to increase your maximum health. The Gray Wolf Mask will be a cool accessory to wear as you continue your adventure throughBlack Myth: Wukong.
