Wu Lengshuang, the Soft Sword Summary
Wu Lengshuang is an optional boss who unleashes a flurry of combos with her Soft Snake Sword. The weapon’s whip-like flexibility lets her attacks come at awkward angles and long strings, so expect fast attacks.
Wu Lengshuang doesn’t focus on attacking and instead leans heavily on parries. Whenever she deflects one of your attacks, a purple flash of light appears, so watch for it as your cue that your strike was parried and she will attack.

How to Beat Wu Lengshuang, the Soft Sword
[1] Use weapons that inflict status ailments like Fire Meteor.
Inflicting Status Ailments that damage her health is a huge help during this fight. Because Wu Lengshuang leans on parries and tends to deflect direct attacks, damage over time effects let you keep chipping away at her health without needing to land clean hits.
[2] Learn her Attack Patterns
Most of her attacks are in a combo sequence; she rarely uses singular attacks. Her moves chain together in long strings; dodging or defending only the first hit isn’t enough, so keep your guard up until the whole sequence ends. Once she finishes a combo, she leaves a brief opening, and that’s your window to counter before she starts the next one.
[3] Be careful of her Parry attacks.
Whenever Wu Lengshuang parries your attack, a purple flash of light appears, signaling that she has deflected your strike and will counter-attack right after. Treat the flash as your cue to stop attacking and get ready to dodge or defend.
