You Loong, Leader of the Blackwater Crew boss fight

You Loong, Leader of the Blackwater Crew

A Maskwalker who hunts the living along Pangzhen's waterways. He wears the Ironclad Loong Helm, is as at home in the water as on land, and with a single fishing spear can churn the waters into towering waves. He uses the water to his advantage, rising and sinking beneath the surface, appearing and vanishing without a trace. Every river, lake, and marsh is his hunting ground. He was once the leader of the Blackwater Crew. Through sheer valor, he drove off river bandits and guarded the waterways, earning the people's trust and becoming their chosen leader. The crew grew prosperous, with its own docks and waterways that sustained the livelihoods of the surrounding people. Many heroes came to join him, while some elders chose this place as a refuge in their later years. Later, the Three Pillars of Kunlun came to hunt the Maskwalkers. Eager to aid the Mandate, the Blackwater Crew combined their water arts with Perfect Transcension. Instead, every member of the crew was transformed, lying in wait beneath the water and hunting the living... Yet they were still brothers. He was no match for Soul, and the Ironclad Loong Helm was badly damaged. The Sha-Chi within him became impossible to suppress, so You Loong fled through the water... He must not die here. Otherwise, the young and old of the village, and his brothers in the crew, would have no one left to depend on...

You Loong, the Frenzied Blackwater Crew Leader

On an island in northern Meigu Lake, Soul encounters You Loong again. Drawn here by instinct, he wields the Blackwater Crew’s treasured Loong Trident, while Sha-Chi rises from his damaged Loong Helm. His once-disciplined techniques are now wild and vicious, driven by bloodlust. Even the surging waves seem bent on slaughter. He was once a reckless youth, a bold leader who gathered heroes and fought to defend the Mandate against the Maskwalkers. Now Sha-Chi has consumed him. He clings to his last shred of clarity only to return here. But the Blackwater Crew’s headquarters is no longer what it was. His fellow crew members have become fish-headed monsters, turning on the village they once swore to protect. The villagers who once brought them food and drink have either fled or been devoured. He still remembers his duty as their leader. But there is no one left to protect.
