Rosy Cheeks, Gray Hair is Chapter 4 of Black Myth: Wukong. Its main route crosses the Village of Lanxi, Webbed Hollow, and the Temple of Yellow Flowers; Purple Cloud Mountain is a separate secret area reached through an optional encounter chain. If you are following a missables checklist, pay particular attention to the Venomous Daoist’s back arms: the GameFAQs guide says the Venomous Armguard reward is forfeited if you defeat him before destroying four of them.

How Chapter 4 is organized

Game8 groups the chapter’s major progression areas into three regions. The chapter also contains optional encounters and a secret area, so a straight route through the main regions is not the same as a complete clear.

Area or content What to expect
Village of Lanxi Chapter opening area, including the Estate of the Zhu and the Second Sister encounter.
Webbed Hollow A large progression region with multiple named subareas, side paths, shrines, loot, and optional encounters.
Temple of Yellow Flowers The final major progression region, leading toward the Hundred-Eyed Daoist Master.
Purple Cloud Mountain Secret area reached after defeating Venom Daoist twice and entering the portal created by the second defeat.

Game8’s chapter overview separates area bosses from secret bosses and includes encounters such as The Second Sister, Violet Spider, Hundred-Eyed Daoist Master, Yellow Loong, Scorpionlord, Daoist Mi, and Duskveil. The list includes both main-route and optional or secret fights; do not assume every named boss is required simply to advance through the chapter. See Game8’s Chapter 4 walkthrough guide for its encounter grouping.

Route through the chapter

The detailed GameFAQs walkthrough starts in the Village of Lanxi and Estate of the Zhu, passes the Second Sister, and continues into Upper Hollow and the Pool of Shattered Jade. Its route then covers named locations including Verdure Bridge, Bonevault, Middle Hollow, Cliff of Oblivion, Relief of the Fallen Loong, Lower Hollow, Hut of Immortality, The Purifying Spring, The Gathering Cave, Mountain Trail, Forest of Ferocity, Temple Entrance, and Court of Illumination.

That guide interleaves progression with chests, meditation spots, shrines, side routes, and optional fights. Rather than treating the location list above as a complete checklist, use the guide’s step-by-step entries when your goal is to collect everything or avoid missing optional content. The author identifies the guide as a missables-focused personal walkthrough, version 1.01, updated September 30, 2024, and says it was written after two playthroughs. It is labeled for PS5; current patch behavior on other platforms is not established by that guide. Open the GameFAQs Chapter 4 walkthrough and missables guide.

Missables and conditional rewards

Venomous Armguard

At the Venomous Daoist encounter, destroy four of the arms on his back before defeating him. The GameFAQs guide warns that defeating him without doing so forfeits the Venomous Armguard reward for that encounter. If the reward matters to your run, inspect his back during the fight and prioritize removing four arms before finishing the battle.

Chance-based cocoon drops

The GameFAQs walkthrough describes some cocoon-related drops as having a small chance. Treat these as possible drops, not guaranteed rewards; the guide does not provide a measured drop rate.

Rice Cocoons and Elder Amourworm

Rice Cocoons connect to an ancillary Spirit sequence rather than simply marking chapter progression. Game8’s related guides say to collect three Rice Cocoons in Webbed Hollow, then feed the Proto-Amourworm to Chen Loong in Zodiac Village to obtain the Elder Amourworm Spirit. This is useful to know if you are tracking Spirit collection alongside the main route. See Game8’s Rice Cocoon locations guide and Elder Amourworm Spirit guide.

How to reach Purple Cloud Mountain

  1. Find and defeat Venom Daoist at the Pool of Shattered Jade.
  2. Continue through the chapter until the later arena opposite the Fungiwoman encounter.
  3. Defeat Venom Daoist again. Game8 says this second defeat creates a mural portal.
  4. Enter the portal to reach Purple Cloud Mountain, the chapter’s secret area.

The two-fight sequence is the key distinction: defeating Venom Daoist once does not open the secret area. Game8’s chapter overview is the source for this route description; it is a third-party guide rather than official developer documentation.

Choosing a walkthrough

Use a guide that matches your goal rather than assuming that one route covers every kind of completion.

Chapter title and epigraph

GameFAQs places the line “Love is not about forgiving or getting even. It is never a fair game.” beneath the chapter heading, without naming a speaker. It should not be attributed to a character on the basis of that page alone.
