The Gourd is an item that primarily heals you in Black Myth: Wukong. Gourds can also provide several buffs, depending on what kind of soaks you have equipped in them. Although they may seem like a healing item, gourds also greatly aid you in combat if you have set them up properly. Upgrading gourds increases the number of times you can drink from them, thereby increasing your total heals and also any buffs that you get.

The Supreme Gourd is the mythical tier upgrade for your base gourd, and you will be able to drink from it 10 times. Getting it is not an easy feat. In this article, we will explain how you can get your hands on the Supreme Gourd in Black Myth: Wukong.

Steps to Get the Supreme Gourd in Black Myth: Wukong

The Supreme Gourd upgrades your gourd to the mythical tier, and you can only achieve this upgrade in Chapter 5 of Black Myth: Wukong. Note that only the base gourd can be upgraded to the mythical tier Supreme Gourd. Any other gourds with different abilities will not be able to ascend to this level. 

Here are the steps to get the Supreme Gourd in Black Myth: Wukong:

Step 1: Upgrade Your Gourd

Make sure your gourd is upgraded to the Medicine Buddha Gourd and has nine sips. Upgrading your gourd requires Loujia Fragrant Wine. This item can be found scattered all across the world and in every chapter of Black Myth: Wukong.

You must interact with Shen Monkey, an NPC, to upgrade your gourds. He can be found in Chapter 1, near the Marsh of White Mist Keeper’s Shrine. If you have the Zodiac Village unlocked from the Ruyi Scroll, you will also be able to find him there, along with other NPCs like Xu Dog, Chen Loong, and Yin Tiger.

Step 2: Find the Old Man in Chapter 5

You will first encounter the old man in Chapter 1 of Black Myth: Wukong. He will upgrade your gourd so that you can absorb the souls of defeated yaoguai. You will find this man often, and interacting with him in every chapter will give you a nice and rare achievement to unlock. 

However, you must find and interact with this old man in Chapter 5 to get the mythical Supreme Gourd. Head to the Rakshasa Palace Keeper’s Shrine and keep moving forward to cross the first bridge. Eventually, you will reach a junction where gigantic yaoguais will be standing guard on hot molten lava. Here, instead of going right, jump right into the lava and head left to enter a small shrine.

The old man will be sitting in the corner of this room, and there will be an orange-red flame at the center.

Step 3: Interact With the Old Man and Claim the Flame

Talk to the old man and exhaust his dialogues. Then, head to the orange-red flame at the center and absorb the flame. Doing this will automatically upgrade your gourd to the Supreme Gourd in Black Myth: Wukong. You will not have to head to Shen Monkey for this particular upgrade.

As mentioned before, you must ensure your gourd has nine sips unlocked before this, otherwise you will not be able to claim this mythical tier upgrade.
