Black Myth Wukong Man-In-Stone Quest : How To Unlock Azure Dust

Black Myth Wukong is enjoying great success since its launch – the combat mechanics and the overall world and environments that it is set in being considered the highlights for the game. It also has, like any good action game, secret areas to unlock and NPC quest lines that give rich rewards. One such quest that you may run into is the Man-In-Stone; and in this article we have put up the complete guide for the Black Myth Wukong Man-In-Stone Quest.

Man-In-Stone Quest Location

Start from the Squall Hideout Keeper’s Shrine in Yellow Wind Ridge and take the path down north-west till you reach the Man-In-Stone. Speak to him to initiate the quest. He will tell you how a mysterious curse has made all the rocks in the area sentient; and that an item in a cave nearby will help break this curse.

Man-In-Stone Quest Progression Guide

Travel back to the Squall Hideout Shrine and this time go straight to unlock the Rockcrest Keeper’s Shrine. Take the tunnel behind it and progress ahead till you come across a large rock with blue crystals. Hit it once to start the boss fight against the Mother of Stones.

The boss fight should not be a problem for you. The one thing to keep in mind are the ‘sentient’ rocks that attack you while you are trying to get through to the boss. While you are here, you may also want to grab the Buddha eyeball next to the ledge. There are a total of six that you need to collect to unlock a secret boss fight with rich rewards including a weapon upgrade.

Hand over the Stone Essence to the Man-In-Stone, who will become enraged and attack you. Hit him with your staff a couple of times to calm him down; and unlock the Azure Dust spell. The Azure Dust is a Transformation spell that you can use to ram into enemies dishing massive damage. The spell also makes you immune to all Four Banes (status effects). The Rockfall can also be used to leap and smash to the ground, causing a huge AoE damage.

The Man-In-Stone will then ask you to come back later as it takes time for him to restock. Return to the vendor; and he will sell the following:

The Sobering Stone is a part of The Drunken Boar questline, which unlocks a hidden area and eventually nets you the Wind Tamer, one of the four Vessels in Black Myth Wukong.
