Sandgate Village

Sandgate Village is your first stop in Chapter 2, and acts like a microcosm of Chapter 2 in general, with its blocked entrances and roundabout shortcuts to different seemingly disconnected areas. There's a lot to discover in the Village Entrance area alone, including three (count them) NPCs, two Spirits, and two bosses to fight. Neither of them are terribly difficult, thankfully.

Crouching Tiger Temple

Once you defeat the King Of Flowing Sands and the Second Prince, you have two paths ahead of you. The gate in the middle is blocked, so you need to take either the left path (to Crouching Tiger Temple) or the right path (to Fright Cliff). The order is up to you, although taking the left path first seems to flow a little better to me.

The left path takes you through a cave, in which you'll find the First Prince boss. You should take the time to break the manmade wall in this boss arena with the Wandering Wight Spirit or other hard-hitting attack, because behind it is the Loong Scales item which you can use to unlock all the Loong bosses hidden throughout the various Chapters of Black Myth (including Chapter 1!). After that, head through the cave to reach the Crouching Tiger Temple - home to the powerful Tiger Vanguard boss.

The next step after defeating the Tiger Vanguard is likely to head into the Yellow Wind Formation beyond, although there's one more section of the Temple: the Cellar. You can only unlock the Cellar after defeating both the Tiger Vanguard and the Stone Vanguard. Once you've done that, interact with the Tally at the back of the Tiger Vanguard arena to unlock the Cellar, which is essentially a shortcut to the final boss of Chapter 2.

Yellow Wind Formation

Beyond the Tiger Vanguard arena is the entrance to the Yellow Wind Formation, which is probably the most linear section of Chapter 2. Along this path you'll find a number of important items, including a Sobering Stone (which you can use in the Drunken Boar questline), a Luojia Fragrant Vine, and the Old Rattle-Drum item which has its very own questline attached as well. That final item is held by the one boss of the Yellow Wind Formation - the Tiger's Acolyte, which can be found on the bridge just beyond Windrest Hamlet.

Both the Yellow Wind Formation and the Fright Cliff (coming up next) converge at the end - at the location of the Stone Vanguard and Shigandang boss arena. Which may be confusing if you're not prepared for it. So be prepared!

Fright Cliff

Cross the bridge from the Valley Of Despair back in Sandgate Village, and you'll reach Fright Cliff. There are three whole questlines which take place predominantly in this region:

  • The Drunken Boar (found in Rockrest Flat), which can lead you to Chapter 2's secret region.
  • The Man-In-Stone, whose quest offers two boss fights and a new vendor at the end of it.
  • The Buddha's Eyeballs quest, in which you must find all 6 Buddha's Eyeballs to summon the Shigandang boss.

Of all the encounters in this region, the most dangerous is probably the Black Loong, which you can find behind the "sand waterfall" in Rockrest Flat once you obtain the Loong Scales from the cave in front of the Crouching Tiger Temple.

Secret: Kingdom Of Sahālī

Before you tackle the final boss in the Cellar of the Crouching Tiger Temple, there's one more region to explore - the Kingdom Of Sahālī. This is Chapter 2's secret area, and is only unlocked once you complete the Drunken Boar's questline (linked above). Proceed past the fight with the Yellow-Robed Squire, and he'll let you through the door at the back of Rockrest Flat and into the wide-open Kingdom Of Sahālī region.

Aside from the two bosses found here - the "Tiger Vanguard" and Fuban - keep your eyes peeled for a Meditation Spot on the left side of the Sandgate Bound region.
