How to find the “Rulers of Chizhang Mountains” in Genshin Impact 4.4

Remember the reviving Spiral Abyss Vishaps? Chenyu Vale has them (worse) & you can fight them out in the open now!


The local legends in Genshin Impact are some of the strongest open world enemies you can encounter to test your teams. While players have been asking for more end-game content to utilize their teams, this is the best we have aside from the Spiral Abyss.

These open world enemies were first introduced with the release of Fontaine and have an HP pool of 3-4 million. Plus, they hit hard, often one-shotting you. So, ensure you bring your best teams to the fight.

Like the Fontaine local legends, we’ve got new local legends in the new Chenyu Vale area of Liyue. Chenyu Vale is a new Liyue area introduced in update 4.4. This area has a lot to offer regarding world quests and exploration. But it also has a pair of local legends called Yiji and Tianyu. They are known as the “Ruler of the Chizhang Mountains.”

These Liyue local legends are two Vishaps, each bearing a Pyro and Cryo element. Since both these elements react with each other, it can get a bit hectic when fighting them due to the elemental reactions.

You can find these local legends just northeast of the Chizhang Wall.

Both these local legends have more than 2 million HP. The Cryo-bearing Vishap is 70% resistant to Cryo attacks and 10% resistant to other elements. It also has 30% resistance to Physical damage and 50% resistance to Geo damage.

The Pyro Vishap shares similar resistances, except it has 70% resistance to Pyro element instead of Cryo element.

If you’ve fought the Rimebiter Bathysmal Vishap and the Bolteater Bathysmal Vishap in the Spiral Abyss, you must kill them simultaneously, or else the other one revives after a short period. The cycle continues until you’ve taken them both out simultaneously or the revive timer for the downed Vishap finishes. These local legends act similar to those of Bathysmal Vishaps in the Spiral Abyss.

When you take one out, you will see a revive cooldown by their health bars on top of your screen. You must defeat the other Vishap before the cooldown ends (once the circular bar fills). If you don’t do it in time, the Vishap revives with less than half of its health.

You will get an achievement called “Rulers of Chizhang Mountains,” upon defeating these local legends for the first time. Claiming this achievement rewards you with five primogems. Like any other local legend, the Liyue local legends also respawn upon daily server reset. If you’re having trouble defeating these two Vishaps, we suggest creating a hyperbloom team!
