Amidst travelers' exploration of Safhe Shatranj in Genshin Impact, they will come across a locked temple guarded by a Primal Construct. Defeating the enemy will allow players to activate the door's mechanism and gain access inside the Temple Forsaken.

After using the temple's elevator to descend to the lower floor, players will find three locked chests; two Common Chests and one Luxurious Chest in Genshin Impact. To unlock them, travelers should complete specific tasks, which include solving some Cascade Pool Puzzles.
