Genshin Impact's Glimmers of the Vigilant Yaksha quest begins with players overhearing a conversation between Starsnatcher and Jifang, the boss at Wanwen Bookhouse. This conversation concludes with Starsnatcher purchasing a copy of Yakshas: The Guardian Adepti, and fans will soon find themselves looking for that very same book. This materializes as a quest step that asks Genshin Impact players to search for Yakshas: The Guardian Adepti, and this guide is here to assist with that endeavor.
To put things simply, players can find Yakshas: The Guardian Adepti by facing Jifang at her counter and turning to the left. Genshin Impact fans should find that they are now facing a small alcove with a number of shelves in it, which are being browsed by a woman in a brown dress. There is also a table with an open book sitting upon it in this alcove, and indeed players will discover that this volume is none other than Yakshas: The Guardian Adepti as soon as they approach it.

Upon locating the book, players should enter the input that appears onscreen to interact with it and complete the aforementioned quest step. This will cause a short cutscene about the yakshas, a group of adepti who defended Liyue, to trigger, and it is followed by a somewhat elongated discussion with Paimon. From there, fans will be sent to Wangshu Inn to look for Starsnatcher, and tackling that objective is as easy as navigating to the waypoint that appears on Genshin Impact's map.
This does not mark the end of this Genshin Impact story quest, though, and players will need to speak with Starsnatcher and even engage in a little combat. That said, this encounter is quite easy to overcome, and it should only be a small amount of time before a fan has completed Glimmers of the Vigilant Yaksha and collected their rewards. Specifically, those rewards are 450 Adventure EXP, 31,125 Mora, 4 Hero's Wits, and 7 Mystic Enhancement Ore, which are sure to be appreciated by many.
Players will also unlock a new quest called The Purging of Evil that begins by instructing fans to use Elemental Sight to track down the hilichurls with the evil aura. Notably, this is the third of four quests that comprise Butterfly's Dream, the first act of Xiao's story quest. While this multi-part quest typically requires players to have a Story Key and to have reached Adventure Rank 40, those requirements have been reduced for the Lantern Rite event that is ongoing at the time of writing.
Genshin Impact is available now on the App Store, Google Play, PC, and PS4, and is currently in development for PS5 and Switch.
