How to find it
From the Resurrection Tower, head south into the Eastern Abbey ruins. A damaged Guardian that cannot move but still fires its beam stands in front of the walled-off shrine. You can sneak around it and climb the walls, or stand where it will blast the wall open for you.
Solution
Take the bomb runes
At the foot of a slope a cracked wall blocks the way. Put the Sheikah Slate on the pedestal on the left to unlock both bomb types. Sphere bombs roll, cube bombs stay where you set them, and you can detonate either whenever you choose.
Break the first wall
Set a bomb near the cracked wall at the end of the ramp, back away and detonate it to open the hallway.
Open the side chest
In the hallway there are two sets of cracked blocks. Blow up the ones that hide an alcove to reach the chest, and blow up the other pair on the left to reveal a ladder back up to the next room.
Cross on the moving platform
The next room has a platform that shuttles over a gap to a cracked wall you cannot approach. Drop a cube bomb on the platform, let it carry the bomb across, and detonate it from the near side.
Launch a sphere bomb
In the large final room, climb to the right of the first funnel and drop a sphere bomb in. The ramp flings it onto the cracked stone covering a ladder on the far side. Detonate it, then jump down, climb the ladder and speak to the monk Ja Baij.
Chests and rewards
- Traveler’s Claymore: in the alcove behind the cracked blocks in the hallway.
- Amber: in a chest left of the monk, reached by standing on the launcher block.
- Spirit Orb: from the monk at the end.
