All the required steps to obtain the Supreme Gourd in Black Myth Wukong

The Supreme Gourd in Black Myth Wukong elevates your gourd to a mythical status. This upgrade is exclusive to that particular gourd. It is important to remember that only the base gourd qualifies for this enhancement; gourds with alternative abilities cannot reach this tier.

To obtain the Supreme Gourd, follow the steps below:

1) Upgrade your base gourd

First, you must upgrade your gourd to the Medicine Buddha Gourd, which contains nine sips. To do so, you will need Loujia Fragrant Wine. This item can be discovered throughout the world and in every chapter of the game.

To enhance your healing gourds, interacting with Shen Monkey is essential. He is located in the first chapter, close to the Shrine of the White Mist Keeper. Additionally, if the Zodiac Village has been unlocked through the Ruyi Scroll, you can also locate him there.

2) Interact with the Old Man

The Old Man makes his initial appearance in the first chapter of Black Myth Wukong. He will enhance your gourd, allowing you to capture the souls of the Yaoguai you defeat. You’ll come across this character frequently, and engaging with him in each chapter will reward you with a unique and valuable achievement to unlock.

To acquire the Supreme Gourd, it is essential to locate and engage with the Old Man in Chapter 5. Proceed to the Rakshasa Palace Keeper’s Shrine and continue onward until you cross the initial bridge. Soon, you will arrive at a junction where massive Yaoguais are stationed, guarding a pool of molten lava.

At this point, rather than turning right, leap directly into the lava and veer left to access a small shrine. Afterward, you can locate the Old Man in the corner of this room.

3) Absorb the flame

Interact with the Old Man and fully burn his dialogues. Next, proceed to the vibrant orange-red flame at the center and take in its essence. By doing so, your gourd will be upgraded to the Supreme Gourd automatically.

This specific upgrade does not require a visit to Shen Monkey. However, your gourd must have nine sips unlocked before absorbing the flame. If not, you will be unable to obtain this gourd upgrade.
