Phase 1

To bring the Miasmic Tumor down, you must summon an Electrogranum and then adjust the order of the several lamps on the ground.

The lamp to the right of the praying lamp should be numbered two, and the subsequent lamps should be numbered three, four and five, respectively. After achieving this order, pray, and the Miasmic Tumor will finally touch the ground.

Deal as much damage as possible during this phase.

Phase 2

You must defeat another Samurai before initiating Phase 2. This time, start with the lamp toward the left of the praying lamp, and adjust its order to 2. The other lamps should be numbered in a manner that the Electro rays create a zig-zag pattern after praying.

Phase 3

Before Phase 3, you must defeat two Samurais who were introduced in Genshin Impact with the 2.0 update. Thereafter, number the two lamps on the side of the praying lamp two, and the two lamps in the front should be numbered three.

Pray again when you achieve this order, and the Miasmic Tumor shall touch the ground. Now the tumor is easily defeatable, and the quest is almost complete.

In the final part, Kazari tells the story about how she has to protect Narukami island and perform the ritual. The NPC then gifts the Mask of Memories to the traveler and Paimon.

You will also receive the following rewards alongside the Mask of Memories:

  • Primogems x 50
  • Hero's Wit x 5
  • Mora x 50,000

Even though it consumes a lot of time, the Yougou Cleansing quest is definitely worth it for players who love to explore Genshin Impact's lore and complete puzzles. Those who wish to complete World Quests only to get rewards and new characters will surely have a tough time completing this one.
