– White-Clothed Scholar
Enter the pool along the plank road.
The white-clothed scholar is in the pavilion in the water.
The white-clothed scholar’s moves are sharp, fast, and relatively hidden.
I recommend that novice players prioritize stability.
His rapid stabs have a slower ending, so after evading, it can be used as a primary attack point, capable of hitting 2-3 times.
If you can accurately time the counterattack with the stick, it is an excellent opportunity for a counterattack, which can help you practice controlling the scholar.
Red Tide transformation, blood sacrifice, ghost headbutt control, and immobilization technique.
With these three “treasures,” you can clear a large number of boss health bars.
The immobilization technique coupled with the 3rd stage heavy stick is both damage-dealing and disrupting.
It is effective against the scholar’s wide range of rapid attacks.
Don’t celebrate too soon after depleting a bar of health, as the scholar has a second phase.
This time, the Water Serpent reveals its true form, with more frequent and faster moves, a larger range, but the fighting strategy doesn’t change much.
It is still advisable to prioritize stability, using its post-charge and wide AoE stiffness to output damage.
Pay attention to the stick momentum and try to use the 3rd stage heavy stick after immobilizing.
This move is basically a stable opportunity for victory.
Killing the scholar will earn you Yuchiya (material), Lingyun, and Jing Stone.
Passing through the waterway leads to the third bell.
Beware of the wave of small monsters before the bell; don’t let yourself be surrounded and attacked.
