Keeper's Shrine

Keeper’s Shrine are special locations in Black Myth: Wukong that act as checkpoints as they can be fast travelled to once they are activated by offering an incense. Resting at a Keeper’s Shrine will also have different resetting and restorative effects.

Rest

Resting at a Shrine will fully restore the [Destined One](/destined-one)'s condition, and replenish his gourd. Additionally all enemies will respawn and reset their positions. [Yaoguai Kings](/yaoguai-king), [Yaoguai Chiefs](/yaoguai-chief) and other special enemies will not respawn.

Travel

Using the Travel options at a Keeper's Shrine will allow the Destined One to return to any previous Keeper's Shrine, allowing him to freely fast traveller between different locations and chapters.

Self-Advance

At Self-Advance, players can change the current active [Spells](/spells/spells) for the Destined One to use in combat. One of each four types of spells can be set and changed at any time upon visiting a Shrine. Also here, players can refund already used Sparks from awakened talents and reallocate them to unlock or upgrade other talents. At Cultivate Spirits, players can also upgrade previously obtained [Spirits](/spirits/spirits), making them stronger by improving their effects, lowering their Qi usage or other general improvements.

Craft

At Craft, players can craft new [Weapons](/weapons/weapons) and [Armors](/armors) if they have met the unlocking requirements and have enough materials. Crafting new better weapons and armors, would make the Destined One stronger. Additionally, players can Upgrade Armors to higher rarity tiers, improving the stats of the armor piece and in some cases obtaining a new set effect for certain [Armor Sets](/armor-set/armor-sets).

Brew

At Brew, players can set up different [Drinks](/drinks/drinks) for the [Gourd](/gourds/gourds), and add different [Soaks](/soaks/soaks). The different Drinks and Soaks can have unique benefits for the Destined One when he takes a sip from the Gourd.

Store

Different goods can be brought at the Store for [Will](/will). Each Chapter Keeper's Shrine store offers different goods for purchase. So its good to check the Store at each Chapter. Additionally, the secret locations (such as [Ancient Guanyin Temple](/ancient-guanyin-temple), [Kingdom of Sahali](/kingdom-of-sahali), [Purple Cloud Mountain](/purple-cloud-mountain) and [Bishui Cave](/bishui-cave)) also offer different goods than the store in the chapter they are located in. At the Sell option, players can sell different treasure items in exchange for Will.

Make Medicines

At Make Medicines, players can craft different types of medicines if they have the necessary [Ingredients](/ingredients/ingredients) and obtained medicine [Formulas](/formulas).

Challenge

Opponents recorded in Portraits can be challenged again, either by dueling them individually (in [Return of Rivals](/return-of-rivals)) or fighting them in succession (in [Gauntlet of Legends](/gauntlet-of-legends)) with customized curses. Along with various treasures as rewards, your best records will be documented to inspire your spirit and strengthen your resolve.

Trailblazer's Gift

A temporarily available option for those who have Pre-Ordered the game or have purchased the Deluxe Edition. Here, players can collect the pre-order and deluxe edition items. Once the items are collected, the option won't show up at the Shrines anymore.
