An entirely new region known as the Chenyu Vale was added in the latest update of Genshin Impact. With it comes various new features, including an offering system that requires you to submit Spirit Carps. In this guide, we’ll go through the location of every single one that you can find in Update 4.4!
All 50 Spirit Carp Locations Guide
Before we begin the hunt, make sure that you have unlocked the Rainjade Oblation offering system first, it’s also called the Spirit Carp Turn In. If you need help getting there, check out our guide on how to unlock Carp’s Rest first!
Also, in order to gain access to the entire collection, there are a few prerequisites that you have to meet:
- Complete the Chenyu’s Blessings of Sunken Jade quest chain, which begins with Qiaoying of the Sacred Mountain.
- Unlock the Rainjade Oblation in Carp’s Rest, as mentioned above.
- Solve the Treasure Hoarders Warehouse puzzle.
- Solve the Chizhang Wall puzzle.
- Complete A Wangshan Walk to Remember.
- Finish the Scrolls and Sword Manuals of Guhua quest.
- Finally, complete the Shrouded Vale, Hidden Hero quest.
There are 50 total Spirit Carps scattered all throughout the Chenyu Vale. All you have to do in order to collect them is to simply walk over them, but it can be a bit tricky to find all of them without a guide.
Also, this guide is routed in a way that you can sometimes collect multiple in an incredibly fast pace. So, read one to two entries ahead so you don’t miss an immediate transition to the next.
Spirit Carp #1
Start your search at the Statues of the Seven – Geo teleport waypoint at Upper Vale, Liyue. Upon teleporting here, you should see a yellow boat sail straight ahead of you. Head over to that spot.
Jump onto the boat and climb all the way to the top of the sail in order to get the first Spirit Carp of the journey.
Spirit Carp #2
Next, teleport to the waypoint just northwest of where you are, highlighted in the map below. Upon teleporting there, immediately turn to the northeast and start running.
As you run along the cliff, you should be able to spot the second Spirit Carp on the tip of a building just below you. Glide your way there and try your best to land on top of it.
Spirit Carp #3
The next one is in Qiaoying Village to the northeast of where you currently are (technically you should be in the village already). Teleport to the waypoint there and the third Spirit Carp should be visible already.
It is right on top of the giant tea pot that has a tree surrounding it. Just climb up to the top to grab the carp.
Spirit Carp #4
The fourth Spirit Carp is just to the north of the previous one, on top of the large building. Simply jump off the tea pot and scale the building up north to reach it.
Spirit Carp #5
For the next carp, teleport to the waypoint just to the west of Qiaoying Village. Head northwest into the Treasure Hoarders tunnel, which will be blocked if you didn’t do the prerequisite.
The fifth Spirit Carp should be immediately to the left upon entering the cave to the Treasure Hoarders Warehouse. You can’t possibly miss it.
Spirit Carp #6
After grabbing the previous one, climb out of the cave and head straight north. There, you will be facing two Ruin Golems.
Upon defeating them, the path ahead should open up, and to the left will be a spider web that you need to destroy. Right behind this web is the sixth Spirit Carp.
Spirit Carp #7
Teleport to the same waypoint to the west of Qiaoying Village. Instead of going north, this time you’ll be heading southwest.
There, you will see a building with geo particles all around the roof. Glide over to the location and utilize the Golden Carp’s Leap ability to shoot yourself on top of the building and collect all the geo particles.
After collecting all of the geo particles, a glowing object will appear at the tip of the building. Activate it and you will be shot up into the sky, directly onto the seventh Spirit Carp.
Spirit Carp #8
After nabbing the previous one, immediately glide to the southwest, where you can see the eighth Spirit Carp floating on the air.
You won’t be able to reach it this way, but you need to land under it anyway. On the ground, you can activate Golden Carp’s Leap once more.
From there, aim to the sky and shoot yourself into the next Golden Carp. Then, use that to launch yourself straight into the Spirit Carp right behind it.
Spirit Carp #9
From the previous spirit carp, run straight up the hill directly to the northwest. At the top, you will find a small statue that you can interact with.
Upon interacting with the statue, you will be able to shoot an orb that will let you activate Golden Carp’s Leap.
Right above a tree in front of you is the ninth Spirit Carp. Shoot an orb nearby so that you can launch yourself into the air and grab it.
Spirit Carp #10
The prerequisite for this one is the Shrouded Vale, Hidden Hero quest. Teleport to the underground waypoint south of where the previous one was, and use Golden Carp’s Leap on the orb just ahead.
From there, just aim upwards and you should see the tenth Spirit Carp floating above the center of the room. Just launch yourself toward it and grab it.
Spirit Carp #11
For the next one, teleport to the waypoint northeast of where you currently are. Once there, turn to the north and you should see the 11th Spirit Carp floating on the air.
To reach it, you have to use Golden Carp’s Leap on the orb to the right of the waypoint. Then, aim above to the left to launch yourself towards another orb. Finally, just launch yourself straight at the carp below.
Spirit Carp #12
Now teleport to the waypoint directly to your west. From there, simply jump down south towards the wooden pathway below.
There, you should see the 12th Spirit Carp hiding under a tree just beside the pathway. Hop right off the path to grab it and prepare to move to the next one.
Spirit Carp #13
Teleport to the same waypoint as the previous one, but this time, you have to head north up the stairs leading to the building you see in the distance.
Once you make it up the stairs, you should see two orbs to your right. Use these to activate Golden Carp’s Leap and launch yourself straight towards the 13th Spirit Carp.
Spirit Carp #14
Immediately after grabbing the previous carp, turn to your right and glide down onto the small island directly ahead of you. The 14th Spirit Carp should be right on top of the tombstone on the island.
Spirit Carp #15
Next, teleport to the waypoint just north of the Yilong Wharf, which is directly west of where the previous carp was. Turn east and you should see the 15th Spirit Carp on the tip of the ship’s sail.
All you have to do is glide down towards it and climb to the top to grab it. This is just like the very first carp, only on a much bigger vessel!
Spirit Carp #16
After that, teleport to the same waypoint as earlier. This time, you will be heading north, towards a building straight ahead. Right in front of that building is a challenge altar that you need to activate.
Complete the time trial by activating the Golden Carp’s Leap and following the trail of geo particles all the way up the building. Opening the reward chest will summon yet another orb, which you can use to launch yourself to the tip of the building, where the 16th Spirit Carp is.
Spirit Carp #17
Immediately after snatching the previous carp, continue to fly towards the mountain to your southwest. There, you will spot yet another orb that you can use Golden Carp’s Leap on.
Seelie #1
Just ahead of this orb is a set of enemies that is surrounding a seelie. Defeat them and escort the seelie to a pillar just beside where the enemies spawned.
Seelie #2
Next, kill the enemies up north surrounding one of the little statues that you can use to shoot orbs. After clearing them, shoot an orb up high to reach the seelie above the tree.
Keep repeating this process until it voluntarily goes down onto one of the statues around the sealed chest below.
Seelie #3
The final seelie is just under a tree directly to the northeast. Once you get there, it will hide in one of the holes. Just investigate all three of them and it should pop right up, then guide it back to the chest.
After guiding all the seelies and unlocking the chest, an orb should appear right behind it. Use this to launch yourself straight up into a set of floating platforms.
From here, you’ll have to do a lot of platforming and activating Golden Carp’s Leap a couple of times to reach the platform at the very top, where the 17th Spirit Carp is.
Spirit Carp #18
For the next one, teleport to the waypoint at the tip of Mt. Mingyuan, which is just to the south of where you grabbed the previous carp.
From here, turn to the southeast and just glide downwards. The 18th Spirit Carp is floating above a tree, and you just need to glide towards it to get it.
Spirit Carp #19
Teleport back to the same waypoint on Mt. Mingyuan, but this time, go directly to the south. The 19th Spirit Carp is right above a building that you can simply glide towards.
Spirit Carp #20
Next up, teleport over to the waypoint south of Mt. Mingyuan. From there, jump down to the west. Keep going directly west and you should see the 20th Spirit Carp hidden under a tree.
Spirit Carp #21
Teleport back to the previous waypoint, but this time, turn towards the south. You will have to head up the mountain straight ahead.
At the tip of the mountain, stand beside the statue to gain a significant jump boost. Then, jump straight up into the air to grab the 21st Spirit Carp.
Spirit Carp #22
For this next one, fast travel to the waypoint just west of Mt. Lingmeng. You will be heading up the mountain to the south.
From here, use the Golden Carp’s Leap on the orb right above you and launch yourself towards the next one at the top of the mountain. Then, fly straight towards the 22nd Spirit Carp right in the air.
You won’t be able to reach it just yet. Instead, you have to do a puzzle right below it. Grab the Sacred Simulacrum sitting beside one of the platforms to start.
Sacred Simulacrum #1
Upon picking up the first Sacred Simulacrum, it will give you a hint about wanting to face the forest. Place it on the platform facing directly south, highlighted below.
Sacred Simulacrum #2
Next, grab the second Sacred Simulacrum leaning against the tree right in front of you. Place it on the platform facing the west.
Sacred Simulacrum #3
Finally, pick up the last Sacred Simulacrum just leaning under the previous platform and place it on the final empty one to complete the puzzle and spawn a Luxurious Chest.
After opening the chest, an orb will appear right behind it. Use this to activate Golden Carp’s Leap and fly towards the 22nd Spirit Carp directly above you.
Spirit Carp #23
While standing on top of the platform where the previous carp was, face the southwest. You will have to glide down to the structure highlighted below. Investigate the glowing object to spawn an orb.
Activate the orb to trigger a challenge, where you simply have to follow a trail of geo particles across the air. After this, a cave will open up and reveal the 23rd Spirit Carp.
Spirit Carp #24
After leaving the cave where the previous one was, use Golden Carp’s Leap on the orb straight ahead. Fly to the right until you can see a cave below you.
Drop down to enter the cave, and the 24th Spirit Carp should be right there in the middle of the small pond inside.
Spirit Carp #25
Next, teleport to the waypoint just to the south of Mt. Lingmeng. From here, use the orb to launch yourself towards another one straight above.
From the second orb, aim to the right and fly towards the ruined structure. Drop down to its base and you will see a challenge that you can attempt.
Upon starting the time trial, use the orbs to fly to the top of the structure. You don’t have to successfully complete the challenge.
Once you reach the point between the two structures, aim downwards behind you to fly into the hole of the structure that you just flew up from. The 25th Spirit Carp is right inside this little gap near the tip.
Spirit Carp #26
Next, fast travel to the Statues of the Seven – Geo just to the west of Chizhang Wall. The 26th Spirit Carp is right out in the open to the north of the waypoint.
Spirit Carp #27
Teleport back to the same waypoint as the previous one, then run southeast towards the ruin (this should be familiar if you completed the Chizhang Wall gate puzzle). Grab the Rust-Worn Key from the puddle on the eastern corner of the ruin.
With the Rust-Worn Key on hand, you can use it to open the gate just beside the spot where you found it. After opening it, just jump to grab the 27th Spirit Carp.
Spirit Carp #28
The next one is conveniently located near the previous carp. Simply climb up the hill to the west just outside of the room you just opened. Use the orb in the distance to fly towards the 28th Spirit Carp.
Spirit Carp #29
Speeding up the process even more, from the previous carp, just turn left and fly towards the first orb yousee. Use this to reach the next orb, then aim to your right and fly towards the 29th Spirit Carp.
Spirit Carp #30
Continue dropping down after grabbing the previous carp and you will eventually see a cave where the 30th Spirit Carp is floating. Just glide towards it or use one of the nearby orbs to fly straight at it.
Spirit Carp #31
After that, fast travel to the waypoint directly to the east of Chizhang Wall. From there, head west towards Chizhang Wall and use the orb below to launch yourself into the 31st Spirit Carp in the middle of the archway.
Spirit Carp #32
This one is straight ahead from the previous carp. Simply enter through the previously locked gate of Chizhang Wall and climb one of the pillars there to reach the floating 32nd Spirit Carp.
Spirit Carp #33
Next, teleport to the Statues of the Seven – Geo to the northeast of Teatree Slope. Follow the road going southeast until you can see a waterfall to your right. Jump down towards the green orb.
Launch yourself upwards into another orb above the waterfall. From here, turn east and fly towards the 33rd Spirit Carp, which is right there up in the air.
Spirit Carp #34
After grabbing the previous carp, immediately turn around and activate the same orb you used to get up here. Now, turn to the southwest and launch yourself towards another green orb.
From the second orb, launch yourself up the mountain to your left. At the top of the mountain, you have to shoot several Floating Anemo Slimes.
After clearing them and opening the chest, a wind current will appear in front of it and this will shoot you upwards into the 34th Spirit Carp.
Spirit Carp #35
Next up, fast travel to the teleport waypoint at Yaodie Valley. From here, activate the orb above the giant jar right in front of you. The 35th Spirit Carp is right inside the jar, so just cancel out and fall inside.
Spirit Carp #36
Now, fast travel back to the same waypoint as the previous one, but this time, head south towards the cave.
At the end of this tunnel, you will see another green orb. Activate Golden Carp’s Leap and follow the trail of orbs down the cave system. At the last orb, turn around and the 36th Spirit Carp should be right there.
Spirit Carp #37
For this next one, continue through the cave from where you grabbed the previous carp. Once you reach the clearing, you will see another green orb that you should activate.
From there, launch yourself above the tree to your right. As you fly up, you should be able to spot yet another green orb up top, which you should fly towards.
After activating this orb, turn left and you should spot the 37th Spirit Carp inside one of the hanging jars. Just launch yourself towards it to get it.
Spirit Carp #38
After grabbing the previous carp, jump out of the hanging jar and turn left. Use Golden Carp’s Leap on the next orb you see down there.
From the orb, launch yourself towards the right where you will be able to spot the 38th Spirit Carp behind a large spiderweb. Break through the web and climb the stone formation beside the carp to get it.
Spirit Carp #39
For the next one, teleport to the waypoint just west of Yaodie Valley. Head south towards the ruined tower that is just ahead.
Inside this ruined structure is a pinwheel. Switch over to an Anemo character to wind it up and use the wind current to fly straight up into the 39th Spirit Carp.
Spirit Carp #40
After nabbing the previous carp, turn to the west and start gliding towards another orb. Use it to launch yourself towards the statue straight ahead, which will give you a jump boost to reach the 40th Spirit Carp above it.
Spirit Carp #41
Next, fast travel to the waypoint east of Chizhang Wall. After that, start gliding towards the ruined structure directly to the south.
Inside the ruined structure is a pile of rocks that you have to break. Upon destroying this debris, you should be able to grab the 41st Spirit Carp right in front of you.
Spirit Carp #42
Now, fast travel back to the previous waypoint, but this time, head southeast towards a cave that you can drop down on from straight above.
Continue to drop down carefully and you will eventually see the 42nd Spirit Carp floating in the air. Just slowly glide towards it before you hit the ground.
Spirit Carp #43
For this next one, fast travel to the waypoint south of Yaodie Valley. Immediately after teleporting, turn right and head towards the statue that will let you shoot orbs.
By default, the statue should be aiming right on top of the 43rd Spirit Carp. Simply shoot an orb above it and start flying towards it.
Spirit Carp #44
For the next one, fast travel to the waypoint at Mt. Xuanlian. Immediately drop down and start gliding towards the green orb to the side. You should see the 44th Spirit Carp right above it. If you can’t catch it on the way down, use the orb to launch yourself up.
Spirit Carp #45
Return to the previous waypoint and take the green orb to the south. Then, launch yourself towards the next orb to the right, and then use that to fly towards the 45th Spirit Carp above the gazebo straight ahead.
Spirit Carp #46
After grabbing the previous carp above the gazebo, fly towards the green orb that you used to get up here. This time, launch yourself up the cliff to the west and climb all the way to the top.
Once you reach the top of this mountain, you will see a statue and the 46th Spirit Carp way ahead of you in the air.
Use the statue to get a jump boost. Upon jumping, you can then activate a green orb above that will let you fly straight towards the one right beside the Spirit Carp.
Spirit Carp #47
Before launching yourself out of the green orb where you claimed the previous carp, aim down to the northwest. You should be able to see the 47th Spirit Carp in the distance.
If you miss it while gliding after launching, don’t fret. There’s a statue below just slightly north of the carp. You can use this to shoot an orb right above the carp to grab it.
Spirit Carp #48
As we’re nearing the end, teleport to the waypoint southwest of Mt. Xuanlian. From there, run straight towards the cliff to the northwest. There should be a statue right on top of it.
Use the statue to shoot an orb straight up in the sky. Then, upon activating Golden Carp’s Leap, face directly to the north, where you will see the 48th Spirit Carp. Launch towards it to get it.
Spirit Carp #49
For the penultimate carp, fast travel to the waypoint just west of Chiwang Terrace. Immediately turn around and fly to the green orb. Aim downwards and you should see the 49th Spirit Carp on a floating island.
Spirit Carp #50
For the last one, teleport back to the previous waypoint and run straight towards the green obelisk that will take you to Carp’s Rest.
Do not activate Golden Carp’s Leap. Instead, keep approaching the obelisk and a translucent golden bridge should appear. Cross this bridge and keep looking to the right. You should eventually spot the final carp below.
Just jump off the bridge and start gliding towards it. Once you grab it, congratulations, you can now max out the Rainjade Oblation offerings in a single go!
And those are all of the Spirit Carps that you can collect in the latest update of Genshin Impact! There are other new things to discover in this update, such as new fishing points added with this content drop, so keep on exploring!
