Well butter my biscuit, if it isn't another treasure hunt in Black Myth Wukong! Every Destined One worth their staff knows the main story bosses are just appetizers - the real spicy meatballs are those sneaky secret dragons hiding behind magical barriers. Enter the Loong Scales, a shimmering dragon-shaped key that's rarer than a polite demon in these realms. This ain't your grandma's jewelry - it's your golden ticket to four epic dragon showdowns that'll make you question all your life choices. And guess what? Game Science tucked this bad boy in Chapter Two like it's no big deal, just casually waiting behind a wall that needs either a brute or a ghost to crack open. Talk about playing hard to get!
Snagging That Shiny Scale
Alright, listen up buttercups - here's the no-sweat guide to grabbing the Loong Scales without losing your monkey mind:
- Follow Your Nose to Sandgate
Start at the Village of Despair Keeper's Shrine and waltz straight into the gloomy cave ahead like you own the place (which, technically, you don't - but confidence is key!)
- Left is Right, Right?
When the path forks, channel your inner rebel and go left. Then take a leap of faith down some sketchy ledges until you hit the First Prince of Flowing Sands' bachelor pad
- Wall-Breaking Shenanigans
Spot that suspiciously crackable wall? Here's how to introduce it to destruction:
-
Option A (Pre-Boss Fight): Play matador with the Prince! Lure that overgrown sand-crab into charging the wall like a bull seeing red
-
Option B (Post-Boss): Summon your
ghost buddy from Chapter One to give the wall phantom punches -

Once the wall's toast, poke the sparkly chest in the secret room. Congrats - you've got the dragon keys! Easy peasy lemon squeezy... unless you died seventeen times getting here.
The Fab Four Dragon Dance
So what's next after grabbing those scales? Oh just four dragon bosses ready to roast you extra crispy:
| Dragon Type | Suspected Temper | Player Reactions |
|---|---|---|
| Red Loong | Spicy chili hot | "MY HAIR'S ON FIRE!" |
| Black Loong | Moody teenager | "Why so edgy, buddy?" |
| Cyan Loong | Chill surfer dude | "Bro brought ocean vibes" |
| Yellow Loong | Suspiciously cheerful | "Why's the sunshine dragon trying to murder me?" |
People Also Ask
Can I fight the dragons without Loong Scales?
Nope! Those scaly divas won't even glance your way without their special backstage pass. It's like trying to enter an exclusive club wearing sweatpants - just ain't happening.
What if I accidentally sold my Loong Scales?
Bless your heart - better start praying to RNGesus! Some players report merchants might restock it, but that's rarer than finding a polite NPC in this game. Maybe just... don't sell key items next time?
Are these dragons harder than main story bosses?
Is water wet? These optional fights make the main campaign feel like a kindergarten tea party. Bring extra healing gourds and maybe a therapist.
Can I revisit if I miss it in Chapter Two?
You betcha! Though honestly, backtracking through sand monsters feels like doing homework after graduation - possible but deeply unpleasant.
The Dragon in the Room
Here's the kicker though - why do these magnificent beasts need a special invitation anyway? Are they just drama queens wanting fancy golden tickets? Or maybe... just maybe... they're testing whether the Destined One has enough grit to hunt down hidden treasures before facing celestial reptiles. Food for thought next time you're dodging fireballs - are we the brave heroes here, or just glorified errand monkeys delivering VIP access?
And hey - between you and me - if dragons can hide behind breakable walls... what other bonkers secrets might be lurking behind suspiciously normal rocks? The real treasure might be the existential crises we had along the way!
