The Chu Bai Spear is a powerful weapon forged during the third chapter ofBlack Myth: Wukong. It begins in thePagoda Realm, a prison-like zone found part-way through chapter three. You will need to rescue a fellow captive, simply known as thePrisoner. Getting to him won’t be direct, as a magical barrier further protects his cell. Even after finally being freed, the Prisoner has an entire side quest that will bring you to different areas to fight several bosses.

While the Chu Bai Spear is a great weapon, it isn’t the only option. You should decide early on if it is worth the time investment or to wait for other equipment. You will likely switch to some other staff by the time of chapter five or six. Still, you might also be a completionist who wants to finish this questbefore you miss it inBlack Myth: Wukong.
