How to start the Secret of Chi quest
In order for the task The Secret of Chi to become available, it is enough to find any of the fragments. However, the very beginning of the quest is a conversation with Yang Er. If none of the images has been found yet, start with this action.

Walkthrough of the quest The Secret of Chi in Genshin Impact
The quest requires the Traveler collect three fragments, and with their help enter the hiding place - ruins hidden behind a waterfall. Below we will analyze in detail the passage of each of the stages of the quest.
Head into the ruins and find the fragment
After talking with Yang Er, follow the path to the northwest to reach the location of the first puzzle and explore the ruins.
Here you will come across ruin hunter, which Yang Er mentioned. Defeat the enemy and approach unfinished inscription. Study its content to start solving a simple puzzle.
To get the first fragment, you need to activate three statues, which are stone figurines of dragons. To make it easier to find them, you can use the orange ambers of the Adepts as landmarks - they are near each totem.
First dragon statue
You will find the first statue to the south of the inscription, behind two stone columns. Be sure to interact with her.
Second dragon statue
To search for the second dragon, go to the hill in the northwest. Several are waiting around khilichurlov - Defeat them and activate the statue.
Third dragon statue
The last dragon stands on a hill to the northeast of the inscription. Several Geo slimes will appear next to him - deal with them and interact with the totem.
After activating the last statue, get a Precious Chest. Inside it and find the first fragment. To decipher it, it will be decided to consult with the villagers.
Ask the villagers of Qingce about the fragments
As an adviser, you can choose Baby Lo - the girl is standing in the courtyard of the house at the entrance to the village. The NPC will recommend that you contact the local elder, Ruo Xin, for help.
Ask Granny Ruo Xin about the fragments
Grandma Ruo Xin's house is located at the teleport in Qingce Village. Go there and talk to the heroine.
The elder will advise you to look for the rest of the clues in two places - in the ruins to the west of the village and at a "high altitude".
Head to the highest peak of Qingce Village and find the fragment
Having reached the highest point, you will find yourself on a platform with eight stone statues and a hint inscription in the middle.
Interact with the four statues as shown in the image.
- The first stands opposite the Dragon Ridge.
- The second looks at the Vanchu inn.
- Standing next to the third, you will see the Cloudy Limit.
- The last statue faces the Lair of Tempest Horror in Mondstadt.
If all the statues have been properly activated, a Precious Chest will appear. Open it to get the second fragment.
Find the fragment near the stone statues
In order to find another image, go to the ruins in the west of Qingce. You can use the teleport to move and climb the rock to the south.
The image shows in which order to activate the totems. If the sequence is violated, the puzzle will have to be completed again.
When you correctly activate all the statues, get a new chest. When you open it, you will find the last fragment.
Decipher the fragments
After collecting all three images, return to Ruo Xin to learn about their meaning. The Elder will offer the Traveler to go to a certain place where there is water blocking the entrance.
Find a way to enter the cache
Head to the waterfall in the northwest of the area. Below, to the right of the stream of water, you will see the entrance to the cave, covered with leaves. Head there and go inside.
Search the cache
Follow deep into the cave until you come across a grate that closes the passage. To get rid of the barrier, insert the three assembled fragments into the door. After removing the barrier, continue on your way deeper into the cache.
Approach the column-mechanism. The group will appear treasure thieves: deal with them and change squad to a stronger, if it is needed. Then activate the device.
After that, a test will start in which you have to defeat 5 opponents: 4 guardians of the ruins и 1 Ruin Hunter:
- Monsters will cause damage not only to the character, but also sacred books (to the column that was activated). During the battle, it is recommended to monitor their condition, it is displayed as a percentage on the left of the screen.
- Lure enemies to you, run away and fight away from the sacred books in order to protect them in this way. If the opponents destroy them, the test will have to go through again.
- There is a small pond nearby. You can take advantage of this and take characters to the Cryo squad to freeze and immobilize enemies. So you can easily kill the monsters and save the pedestal.
The test can also be taken in joint mode. If it seems too difficult, get help from other players.
Find the treasure
Having coped with the test, find another passage. In the depths, on a stone hill, stands a Luxurious chest, and above it - Geocul. After collecting the main reward of the task, you can get more five chests: two ordinary and one rich on the right islet, one rich and one precious on the left. In addition, there is fairy, completing which, you will receive an additional reward.
Go to Qingce Village and talk to Grandma Ruo Xin
Return to Elder Ruo Xin and share the results of the adventure with her. After talking with Granny, the task will be completed.

I don’t know, maybe someone has encountered this... I completed the “secret chi” task a million years ago, now I sat down to clear the chests in Li Yue, and the compass showed that there were uncollected treasures in the cache, and the barrier at the entrance to the cave was closed. how to open it?..
strange, in theory it shouldn't be. Have you tried asking tech support?
Hello! I encountered the same problem. Being at the initial ranks, I studied the map of Li Yue, one day I was studying and came across stone statues, quickly solved the riddle, they gave me a precious chest and then that was the end of it. Then, after a while, I began to complete the “Secret of Chi” task, reached these stone statues, solved the riddle again and not a fragment, they didn’t give me anything. And without the fragment, I can't continue execution. No matter how many times I go through this riddle, they don’t give me a fragment (I solved the riddle correctly), can you please help?(
Hello!
In the cave itself, where we fight with the guards of the ruins, there are two more ordinary chests: behind the tree to the right of the monument and on the platform above the inactive guard of the ruins, who is sitting in a pond.
what to do if the fragment on top of the tsintse does not burn? I haven’t completed this riddle but I can’t even activate the statues; re-entering the game didn’t help.
did you approach a fragment and didn’t see any interaction with it specifically? why do you think you haven't completed this riddle?
Together we can find it on easy and it goes quickly
One of the most difficult quests
I have a problem in the northwest, I did a puzzle before the start of the task and they didn’t give me a fragment, but I did it correctly and now the statues are activated and there is a button next to them to activate but nothing happens and they don’t give a fragment
a fragment was given from a chest for solving a riddle. did you check the rest of the places for fragments? perhaps they are in ruins or high on a mountain, check there first. if the task does not progress, re-enter the game through the paimon menu and contact technical support
With the help of gan yu, he barely defeated the three guards of the ruins by freezing. It was a nightmare. I am so grateful that gan yu fell to me from the first prayers, from the previous banner. The only one from my party that turned out to be useful.
Sorry, but what to do if in the paragraph "go to the ruins and find a fragment" you put all the statues correctly, but the chest with the fragment did not appear and rearrange the statues, even if the restart does not work?
First or third piece?
the same, at the top of the village of Qingce I correctly solve the riddle and activate the statues according to the guide, but the chest does not appear
Damn, there are awesome guides, for example, on Sumeru and there is this and guides on Inazuma ...
“The last point is at the top near Li Yue Teleport Bishui Valley.” And try to make out what kind of teleport is there on the minimap of four pixels.
we are slowly updating the old guides) after all, they didn’t immediately start working hard on the genshin
what if I solved the third cardinal riddle before the task required it? the chest does not appear again and I can not finish the task (((
Tell me, what stage of the quest is displayed in the list of tasks? did you get the rest of the pieces?
Help, I did a task with a fragment on the mountain, just without a secret chi task and the 3rd fragment was not given to me and the thing with an unfinished inscription does not light up
are you sure you did it right? try to follow the guide from start to finish
this thing also does not burn for me after I correctly turned on the statues. But there is a fragment, check other places, maybe they didn’t take a fragment there
at the end of the quest, you need to find a treasure, but in the place where it should be, it is not there ... why?
tell me, did you not like the luxurious chest or resources from the elder? Are you having trouble looting a chest?
Help! the task was completed, but I can’t pick up the geocul from the cave because there is a barrier
go through the entrance at the waterfall, as in the quest
I went through this task for a long time, but I could not complete it to the end, it only remained to kill the enemies. I decided to do it now, I come to search the cache, and here is the barrier. How to remove it?
Tell me, what stage of the task is displayed in the list of tasks?
"search the box"
"search the cache" more precisely, sorry
did you activate the pedestal and pass the test to protect it from automatons?
I don't remember 🙁
Most likely, because all that remained was to fight the guards
and when you click Track in the list of tasks, does the label lead somewhere?
Yes, just in the Bishui Valley, where the last steps of the quest take place
try to fight the guards
There's a barrier
right at the entrance to the cave? Have you tried contacting Ruo Xin again or checked the solution to all the puzzles described?
I just tried it and can't go through it again.
Such a description.
I went to this Yang Er, I didn’t give the quest, I collected everything and they don’t let me into the cache, especially since the girl disappeared I can’t take the quest
You should have at least left a link to the video or the channel, otherwise you made screenshots “for free”, you can even cut off the id (but the main character’s nickname is still fawn).
Hello! Then they ordered a guide on the stock exchange, and it is not possible to control all the authors there (where they get the information from).
Thank you for writing. I found a video on YouTube by name, added it to the article.
But what if you teleported to another place, and now you are not allowed to barter?
Are the quest items left in the inventory?
In addition to the previous question. Try to approach the gate, remove the tracking, return, change the members of the squad ... I remember that he died during the quest, but returned to the cache without any problems after that.
But what to do if you died in a cave, on the activation of a stone, and there are no quest items in the inventory, and the passage is littered ..?
Contact technical support. Users claim that they help with buggy quests. I did not contact them myself, because. I haven't seen anything like this in the game yet...
