Mind Cores are quite rare in the earlier chapters of Black Myth: Wukong. You can acquire them by defeating bosses or purchasing them at the Keeper’s Shrine Stores.

It is important to remember that not all bosses drop Mind Cores upon being defeated. However, end-of-chapter bosses have a higher chance of dropping this useful resource. Other than that, you can purchase a finite amount of Mind Cores from the Keeper’s Shrine Store.

Exploration can also be your friend when trying to find Mind Cores in Black Myth: Wukong. You can explore the levels to find chests since they have a chance of dropping Mind Cores. They become increasingly common in chests in later chapters of the game.

With Xu Dog and the Mind Cores, you can make Celestial Medicines. These act as powerful buffs that can enhance your character’s stats, including Maximum Health and Maximum Mana. Additionally, you can respec these Celestial Medicines any time you want, much like how you can respec Sparks. For this, you simply have to revisit Xu Dog and choose the Remake Celestial Medicine option.
