When I first journeyed through Black Myth: Wukong’s stunning yet treacherous world, I quickly realized how brutally bosses could dismantle me 😩. That’s when I discovered Kun Steel—the mythical crafting material essential for forging god-tier staves. With only six available per playthrough, these shimmering blue ingots became my obsession. Each one demanded blood, sweat, and countless retries, but oh, the satisfaction of holding those completed staves! Let me walk you through every heart-pounding location—complete with boss strategies and personal war stories.

💫 Kun Steel #1: The Hundred-eyed Daoist Master

I craved Kun Steel since Chapter 3, but the game teased me relentlessly! It wasn’t until Chapter 4’s climax—after dodging neon tentacles and spectral orbs for an hour—that I toppled the Hundred-eyed Daoist Master. His final collapse rewarded me with that first glorious Kun Steel. The relief was unreal! I danced around my room like a monkey spirit 🐒. Pro tip: Save your Focus spells for his third phase—he spams AOE attacks!

🌌 Kun Steel #2: The Duskveil in Purple Cloud Mountain

Ah, Purple Cloud Mountain! This secret Chapter 4 area stunned me with floating islands wrapped in violet mist ✨. But beauty meant danger: The Duskveil awaited, a shadow-panther hybrid that teleported faster than my panic rolls. After 15 tries, I parried its leap attack perfectly—and bam—Kun Steel #2 dropped! The adrenaline rush? Better than espresso.

🔥 Kun Steel #3: Yaksha King’s Fiery Demise

Chapter 5’s finale had me sweating. The Yaksha King—a lava-spewing, four-armed monstrosity—required precise timing. His ground slams melted my HP bar repeatedly 😤. I finally beat him by hiding behind pillars during eruptions, then countering with heavy combos. Victory gifted me Kun Steel #3—and newfound respect for fire resistance gear!

🧭 Kun Steel #4: That Sneaky Lava Chest

For #4, I trekked to Furnace Valley’s molten core 🔥. From the Valley Entrance shrine, I dropped into bubbling lava (tip: equip Flameproof Charm!), then scurried left past magma geysers. There it was—a golden chest guarded by a spear-wielding demon! After a frantic duel on narrow rock ledges, I claimed Kun Steel #4. Felt like looting a dragon’s hoard!

🐉 Kun Steel #5: Yellow Loong’s Trial

This one tested my patience! First, I hunted three Loong bosses across Chapter 5:

  • 🟥 Red Loong: Aggressive but weak to ice spells

  • ⬛ Black Loong: Summons minions—clear them first!

  • 🟦 Cyan Loong: Dodge its tornado spins

After earning their scales, I climbed to the Relief of the Fallen Loong shrine. Yellow Loong awaited—a lightning dragon with screen-filling AoEs. My hands shook during this 20-minute marathon, but Kun Steel #5 was worth every volt!

⚡ Kun Steel #6: Erlang Shen—The Ultimate Test

Getting this meant pursuing the secret ending—a 40-hour grind unlocking every hidden zone. Erlang Shen, the celestial warlord, made previous bosses look like tutorials. His three-phase fight included:

  1. Spear combos requiring frame-perfect dodges

  2. Divine clones that multiplied his attacks

  3. A final transformation where he literally split the arena 🌪️

When he finally fell, Kun Steel #6 flashed on screen. I screamed so loud my cat fled the room! Crafting the "Heaven-Piercer" staff afterward? Pure nirvana.

Reflecting on my Kun Steel odyssey, I’m awed by how these six pieces transformed my playthrough—from struggling in Chapter 3 to dominating New Game+ 💪. Each boss etched memories into my gamer soul: the despair of repeated deaths, the euphoria of hard-won triumphs. If you embark on this hunt, remember: perseverance turns rage into glory. Now go forth, Destined One—your staff awaits! 🙏
