Once you figure out when those AoE abilities are cast and how they spread, though, you should be halfway home. It can certainly be difficult to properly time the parries for Demonic Qi’s sweeping strikes, but the things that make this battle truly tough are Demonic Qi’s massive AoE attacks that fill the arena and leave you with few safe spaces to stand. The Yu Ji portion of this fight is an elaborate fakeout for the real battle against the demonic dragon-like creature known as the Embodiment of Demonic Qi. That includes the penultimate battle against Yu Ji. The final bosses in a Soulslike game are rarely the toughest bosses in a Soulslike game, but Wu Long bucks that tradition somewhat by featuring a few frustrating late-game fights. You can certainly learn this fight after a few tries, but it’s an incredibly frustrating battle. It turns out that it’s pretty difficult to time parries perfectly when an enemy’s attacks are almost always obscured by some kind of particle effect. Parries are the heart of Wo Long’s combat, and perfect parries in this game require perfect timing. Most fights against demonic angels with massive flaming scythes tend to be difficult, but the thing that makes this fight so annoying is the sheer amount of “stuff” that fills the arena. What really makes this fight annoying, though, are Liu Bei’s lightning attacks which spread across the floor while you’re still trying to parry the boss’ deadly melee blows. Liu Bei not only attacks faster than most other bosses, but his ability to fly across the arena and quickly descend upon you creates some awkward parry timings that can be tricky to figure out. This is almost certainly more of a personal pick than a community consensus selection, but I found this fight to be one of the few true late-game nightmares in Wo Long.
