Nine-Capped Lingzhi Guai

Nine caps ablaze, in fire’s cruel kiln,
Mace spikes hunger, for blood it will.
Blight-seeds erupt, immortal’s foul jest,
Rooted in venom, denies its rest.

Description

In the blistering Field of Fire, beside Ashen Pass III’s Keeper’s Shrine, a cluster of Lingzhi mushrooms beckons amid the ash-choked clearing. Uproot the towering crimson heart among its kin, and the parched earth convulses: Nine-Capped Lingzhi Guai surges forth, its head a noxious canopy of nine reishi caps, gnarled limbs clutching a spiked mace forged in fungal wrath.

Nine-Capped Lingzhi Guai

Information

Type: Yaoguai Chiefs

Location: Field of Fire

Ancient yaoguai chief, craving celestial immortality through its potent blight, it bounds with mace combos and aerial slams that birth explosive red mushrooms—clusters that slow and poison on eruption, even sprouting upon the struck traveler. Boomerang caps arc from afar, trailing deadly mists. Evade the leaping barrages and shatter the spawned fungi before they bloom; Thrust Stance counters its reach, Pillar evades the trails—Immobilize to root it, then hammer relentlessly. Slay this deceptive spore-lord, harvest the Nine-Capped Lingzhi Seed for Chen Loong’s fiery garden, claim the Earth Spirit Cap, and seize its spirit: Become the Guai, tread the Earth Cap to sow lingzhi at every step, bursting in poison geysers to corrode surrounding foes.
