Hollow Knight - Opening the Godhome Lifeblood room + effects

The Lifeblood room left of the Hall of Gods in Godhome can be opened after having completed at least 8 bindings in any of the Pantheons, in any order.

Using the Dream Nail on the dreamcatcher in this room spreads Lifeblood throughout Godhome. This causes Lifeblood Cocoons to appear in the bench rooms in the Pantheons, containing 3 lifeseeds for 8 completed bindings, 4 lifeseeds for 12 bindings, and 5 lifeseeds for 16 bindings.

So basically Hollow Knight rewards you for doing challenges by making them easier. Thank you Team Cherry.

FINALLY SOMEONE TOLD ME HOW TO OPEN IT

[scado]

If ya look down on the right side of the room, you can see the lifeblood monster just chilling there.

[Blaze-xecl]

So the lifeblood creature is a god so i geus he will feel right at home

[evo]

Ohhhh so *that’s* what that did. I got that a while ago but thought the lifeblood was just a part of the later trials as a safety net.

Thank you for covering this: best video yet!

[Pundae]

I feel stupid for not realizing you had to dream nail it

[tyrannomon]

Imagine this, *all pantheons hitless all bindings melee only in 50 minutes*

[dragozir]

3 more bindings until I unlock it, the first four were P1 (not all at once, though I did attempt it a few times and choked very close to the end). I recommend doing nail/soul binding for P2 and P3, as I barely even notice they're on. Honestly doing the first 9 bosses hitless (or close to it) is easy enough for P1-P3, but I just need to grind Sheo and Sly in HoG. I imagine unlocking lifeblood will make the mask binding much easier, will update.

What happens if I do every Pantheon with all bindings?
Does that at all effect the life blood at all or no?

[MannnDuck]

That's awesome to know, thank you

[ManiacMG]

I didn’t know about this, guess i know what ill be doing next

edit: nope

[nicholasali]

If I’ve already activated the cocoons can I still get more Lifeseeds after completing more bindings? As of now I have 8 bindings complete and the cocoons spawn in the waiting rooms. If I complete the next 4, will it automatically upgrade to more lifeseeds or will it stay the same?

[niVin.]

I completed all the bindings and i still have 4 lifeseeds

[Jonrocks]

Why does this look like the bridge from the silksong trailer but golden and with lifeblood?

[marvinJVC]

So ... yep.
That's a room I'm never going to enter :/

[amrsaed]

oops too late, completed pantheon 5 before opening this room lmao

[dizzy]

Can u get the roof open to get to the cocoon without completing pure vessel

[selina.schelling]

does the lifebloot respawn after breaking them? in the patheons?
