Parrying attacks, especially the Fatal Strikes, will decrease your enemy’s Spirit Gauge significantly. As such, it is ideal for you to parry as much as possible, then damage them heavily with your Fatal Strike once it is available.

Although his attacks should be slow because of his mace, they are anything but. Players must make sure to not get greedy with their attacks. Attack a few times, then create distance. Repeat this until you finish Phase 1. Once you reach Phase 2, you don’t actually have to defeat Zhang Liang. Players just need to whittle him down to around half-health. Once they do, the player will receive a prompt to summon the Divine Beast. Doing so will immediately end the fight.
