With little direction and silent ghosts standing around, players may be a little lost on how to complete the Sacrificial Offering quest within Genshin Impact. This quest involves ghosts, fox statues, and an abandoned shrine. It’s all fairly simple, just not straightforward.
Investigating the Abandoned Shrine and Mysterious Shadows
After starting the Sacrificial Offering quest, players will need to head to the Abandoned Shrinebetween Mt. Yougou and the Chinju Forest. Players will be given a general area to search in, but the shrine can be found on the middle-eastern edge of this highlighted area. Once the players reach the shrine, they should be able to find aMysterious Shadow standing before the main shrine.
Players will need tospeak with this ghostto move them in front of one of the fox statues. From here, turn around and head to the ghost in thefar left area off of the path. Speak with her to have her stand in front of another fox statue. Once they are in front of one,do not speak to them againor it will reset their location.
