Once you arrive at the location, run down the stairs to a narrow opening. Squeeze through the gap to find an ordinary chest. Next, continue straight to reach a body of water. Cross it and follow the path until you spot a railing. From there, head right, and after a short distance, you will spot another ordinary chest.

Keep moving north from the chest to reach a pond with two stone pillars. Hop on them to cross, then dive into the water and emerge near the narrow gap towards the south. Crawl through it to enter a chamber. Then, climb the stairs and continue along the path till you see another body of water.

Cross it, climb the pillar to your right, and follow the higher path. Through the doorway, you will discover another ordinary chest. Next, continue south from the chest, and you will find another waterbody with pillars. Climb these pillars, then head west. To your right, you can collect another chest by a narrow gap.

Next, use Naoe’s grapple hook to swing across the gap and follow the straight path. Climb the pillar to reach the top, where an opening leads to another chest. From the chest, follow the path towards the south to arrive at a small opening.

Crawl through, head straight, and you will find the next set of obstacles, which require you to hop on stone pillars, use the grapple to swing across a gap, and squeeze through another gap to finally arrive in front of the legendary chest.
