Floating Jade, Treasure of Chenyu is a Genshin Impact World Quest in the Chengyu's Blessings of Sunken Jade quest chain. One of the objectives is to investigate two stone shrines, which you can do with the help of adeptal energy.

I'll show you how to use Chenyu Vale's unique exploration mechanic to solve the puzzle and help you complete this quest objective.

Genshin Impact investigate the stone shrine puzzle solution – Floating Jade, Treasure of Chenyu

In this quest objective, you need to investigate two stone shrines north and south of the Jademouths. Make sure to turn on the quest navigator to make it easier to find the two areas. You can investigate them in any order.

Stone shrine #1

The first stone shrine is located north of Jademouth. Head to the quest location to find a group of Treasure Hoarders. You must defeat multiple waves of enemies to unlock the adeptal energy in the stone shrine at the top of the mountain.

To use adeptal energy, approach the shrine until the small icon on top of it turns yellow. Doing so will allow you to resonate with the adeptal energy using the special interact button (T for PC, check the bottom of your screen as it differs per device), completing the investigation.

Stone shrine #2

Head to the quest area in the southern part of Jademouth to find the second stone shrine. You need to solve a small puzzle to complete the objective. As soon as you enter the clearing, you will find two cauldrons (northwest, northeast) and four sensors (northwest, northeast, southwest, southeast). Start by focusing on the northwest section.

Character positioning is important in solving the puzzle. On the northwest section, stand in front of the censer so that the cauldron, the censer, and your character are forming a straight line. Then, use the special interaction key (T for PC, check the bottom of your screen for your exact device) to resonate with the adeptal energy. Doing so will activate the censer, which you can track via the floating green line (see image two above).

Next, head to the southwest censer and form a straight line with any of the cauldrons. In the image above, my character is forming a straight line with the northeast cauldron, northeast censer, and southwest censer. Tap the special interaction button to trigger the adeptal energy. The green line will activate both the southwest and northeast censers, killing two birds with one stone.

Do the same for the southeast center. Stand in a straight line with the censer and either of the cauldrons, then use the special interaction key to trigger the green line to form, completing all four censers. If you missed any of the censers, you can always go back and try again.

The last step is to activate the stone shrine using adeptal energy (special interaction key), which will trigger a short cutscene and spawn an Exquisite Chest for you to loot. The objective will be complete when both stone shrines are activated.
