How to get the Arhat Gold Piece in Black Myth: Wukong

The Arhat Gold Piece can be obtained after defeating the First Prince of Flowing Sands boss by the Valley of Despair Shrine. During the fight, you do have to bait him to destroy the wall with all the praying monks.

It’s rather easy to have the First Prince attack this area of the arena since he’s very aggressive and tackles you everywhere you go. Just make sure that during the fight, he doesn’t pin you against the wall and kill you.

If at any point in the fight, you never get him to destroy that wall for you, all is not lost. You can use the Wandering Wight spirit after the fight to destroy this. The area is still accessible, so you’re free to come back to it to do so.

Once the wall is broken, you will enter a new area where its only purpose is to gather this item from a chest.

What is the Arhat Gold Piece for in Black Myth: Wukong?

As you progress through the Drunken Pig’s quest in the game, you will need this item along with the two Sobering Stones and Jade Lotus items. Once you encounter his brother, the Yellow-Robed Squire, back where this quest started, you need this item in the secret area of Chapter 2.

It’ll help you progress through this part of the quest to get the item that can help you turn the tide of battle when fighting against the Yellow Wind Sage. The Wind Tamer isn’t necessary but will negate most of this boss’ wind and sand attacks that can easily kill you.
