During the initial part of the first chapter in Black Myth Wukong, you'll meet the Keeper of Black Wind Mountain. This character will soon turn you into a Golden Cicada once you reach the Outside the Forest shrine. Let's find out if you can transform back into the Cicada later.
As you enter the next area of the Forst of Wolves, you'll be transformed by the dwarf into a Cicada. This is a one-time trick that he teaches you so that you can sneak past the enemies, most importantly, the Wandering Wight boss strolling in the forest. Once you de-transform into your regular monkey form, there's no way to turn back into the Golden Cicada here. I've tried respawning at the shrine but it didn't work either, but hopefully, we get this transformation spell later in the game.
How to sneak past Wandering Wight in Black Myth Wukong

Soon you'll encounter the boss Wandering Wight, who can be challenging to defeat, but you can sneak past him in the Cicada form if you maintain a good distance. If you've de-transformed, you can still go past undetected. Wait for the Wandering Wight to walk in the opposite direction and run to the left (see image above). Enter the small passage and you'll be safe from there. I do recommend coming back later and fighting the boss to get some cool items and points.
How to transform in Black Myth Wukong
Although you cannot transform back into the Golden Cicada, you can acquire spells to assume other forms in Black Myth Wukong. In the same region, instead of following the straight path, turn left and you'll stumble upon a giant meditating wolf—Guangzhi (see first image). Learn his attack patterns and you should be able to defeat the boss in a few attempts if not in the very first. Pick up his dropped weapon (second image) and you'll add the Red Tides spell to your character. Using this transformation spell, you can turn into Guangzhi for a brief moment and use his attack techniques.
