Genshin Impact: Abyssal Corruption Guide

Author : Jonathan Jan 03,2025

In Genshin Impact, completing the "Vaulting the Wall of Morning Mist" quest automatically triggers the "Adventure in the Land of Mists" quest. This involves helping Bona locate the Altar of Primal Flame.

Bona guides the Traveler to the Cradle of Fleeting Dreams fortress in Ochkanatlan's northwest. Here, defeat the Tenebrous Mimiflora ambush, then activate the mechanism to finish the "Adventure in the Land of Mists" quest, which immediately starts the "Palace of the Vision Serpent" quest. This requires purifying the Abyssal Blight within the Core of Chu'ulel.

Clearing the Abyssal Corruption:

To cleanse the Abyssal Corruption, follow these steps:

  1. Retrieve the Radiant Fragment from the platform.
  2. Place it on the nearby Radiant Pillar to dispel the Abyssal Blight.
  3. Defeat the spawned enemy.
  4. Proceed to the Core of Chu'ulel: Interior's northern area.

Next:

  1. Obtain the Radiant Fragment near the broken bridge.
  2. Place it on the adjacent Radiant Pillar.
  3. Descend through the floor opening.
  4. Locate the Rust-Spotted Key in the library.
  5. Activate the elevator mechanism.
  6. Ascend to the upper floor.
  7. Retrieve the previously placed Radiant Fragment.
  8. Place it on the southwestern Radiant Pillar.
  9. Head east.

Continue:

  1. Use the Rust-Spotted Key to unlock the sealed area.
  2. Collect the two Radiant Fragments behind the wall.
  3. Place them on the northwestern Radiant Pillar to activate the elevator.
  4. Obtain the Pyroculus.
  5. Descend using the elevator.
  6. Gather the two Radiant Fragments (one from the elevator, one from a nearby pillar).
  7. Open the door using the adjacent mechanism.

  1. Go southeast.
  2. Place the final two Radiant Fragments.

This clears the Abyssal Blight, dropping the Chu'ulel Light Core. Protect the Core from enemies, return to Bona at the Cradle of Fleeting Dreams, and speak with her.

Quest rewards include 50 Primogems, A Nameless Adventurer’s Notes, a Pyrophosphorite, and a Luxurious chest.
