While exploring the Chenyu Vale in Genshin Impact, it’s hard to miss Chizhang Wall’s ruins in the middle of the area. Not only is the vicinity filled with puzzles and Chests, but there’s also a large gate by the main building that players can open.

The clue to opening the Chizhang Wall ruins is by investigating the Diffuser Inscription in Genshin Impact. If players didn’t catch what the object is hinting at, however, then they can refer to this guide for better context of each step.

Diffuser Inscription Puzzle At Chizhang Wall In Genshin Impact

The Diffuser Inscription in Genshin Impact shows you where to go to get the items required to open the gate at Chizhang Wall ruins. There are two Fragrant Woods that players must get before the option to offer incense appears by the Diffuser.

Once you get the two required Fragrant Woods, head back to the object and activate the text again. If both Woods are in players’ inventory, there’s now an option to offer incense at the end of the prompt. Press this, and use both Fragrant Wood Huangcong and Fragrant Wood Chizhang.

The gate for the ruins will now open, and you can head in to check out the hidden treasures inside, especially the Spirit Carp in Genshin Impact. Before entering, however, it’s highly recommended to prepare a team as there will be a small fight inside. When players come close to one of the Chests in the vault, the Ruin Grader inside will stand and the robot must be defeated if Travelers wish to open the Chests.

After destroying the Ruin Grader in Genshin Impact, you can now claim two Common Chests and one Luxurious Chest for a total of 14 Primogems. In the middle of the altar, players can also find an Ancient Jade Pendant, which can be activated using Jade Fragments.
