Spirit Carps are a collectible added in Genshin Impact version 4.4. As shown in the picture above, you can recognize them as blue sparkles. Spirit Carps can be found in the Chenyu region, the northwestern part of Liyue that borders Fontaine. Somewhat similar to Oculi, Spirit Carps can be offered to a special altar, Rainjade Oblation, in return for rewards such as Mystic Enhancement Ore, Talent Level-Up materials, and Fate.
To collect Spirit Carps in Genshin Impact and offer them at the Rainjade Oblation, you first need to unlock the Chenyu region and complete a world quest series named ‘Chenyu’s Blessings of Sunken Jade’. As long as you’ve completed Archon Quest Prologue: Act III ‘Song of the Dragon and Freedom’, you’ll be able to enter Chenyu and trigger the required world quest. Completing the full quest series (consisting of three acts) will unlock the full Chenyu map.
After this, you need to wait two in-game days to trigger the next world quest: ‘The Cloud-Padded Path to the Chiwang Repose’. Complete this quest as well to unlock the Rainjade Oblation located at Carp’s Rest (shown in the picture above). This is where you’ll be able to offer your collected Spirit Carps.
During Chenyu’s Blessings of Sunken Jade, a new ability called ‘Golden Carp’ will be activated. Every time you see a yellow-greenish orb with a carper icon floating around in Chenyu, you can press the special interaction button to fly up. From there, you can either fly to another Golden Carp orb or hold the jump button to release your character and start gliding. It’s important to use this ability, as you’ll need it to reach many of the Spirit Carp locations.
And that’s every Spirit Carp location in Genshin Impact. Time to upgrade the Rainjade Oblation and receive some well-earned rewards!
