Simulacra
There are two types of Simulacra in Chenyu Vale: Flightly Simulacra and Wrathful Simulacra. The Flightly Simulacra device makes the affected character lighter to jump higher than usual.

Jade Incense Cauldron
Travelers will also bump into the mechanisms called Jade Incense Cauldrons around Chenyu Vale when exploring this area.
