One of the more time-consuming achievements/trophies to unlock in Black Myth: Wukong is Portraits Perfected. This achievement requires you to unlock every portrait shown in the Journal, some of which are missable. To unlock a portrait, not only must you meet them, but with the Yaoguai, you’ll need to defeat them. If you see ?????? under an entry, you’ve either not encountered them yet, or you didn’t defeat them. Although some are missable, you can get them in New Game Plus, so it can still be finished, but it’ll take you a lot more time to do so. Read on to find out how to unlock every portrait in Wukong.
You can find what Portraits you’ve unlocked by going to the Portraits section in the Journal.

This is the large grasshopper you see jumping around the large lake. Fly over to its head, dismount, and hold in the interact button to grab onto its feelers. You will need enough stamina and burn resistance to pass this “test”. There is no boss for this, you just need to pass the test. If you fail, rest at a Shrine, find the grasshopper, and try again. The easiest way to beat this is to reset your sparks and put them into anything that increases stamina. For the burn resistance, you’ll need over 40-50 to pass that part of the test. You can use the  Body-Cooling Powder to help with this. |
| 55 |  Emerald-Armed Mantis |
6 | Verdant Path (Mantis-Catching Swamp) | After you’ve obtained the Somersault Cloud ability, jump on the Cloud and ascend above the trees. Once you’ve obtained all three pieces of equipment (Deer, Rhino, and Grasshopper), rotate the camera until you find a yellow tree in the large lake. Fly toward the yellow tree for a scene that’ll trigger the boss fight. |

That’s it for all the Portrait entries. Once you’ve unlocked every entry, you’ll acquire the Portrait Perfected achievement. This is by far the most time-consuming achievement, and it’s recommended you do this once you’ve reached the end of the game (outside the missable entries). This is because the number of journal entries changes location by the end of the game as you unlock more of them. So, the entry at the start of the game may be number 7, but by the end of the game, it’s changed to 28 for example.
