How to find Jiosin Shrine

Head south from Lookout Landing across Hyrule Field, toward the group of giant stone slabs leaning against each other south of the Hyrule Field Chasm. The shrine’s green glow comes from under the largest slab. Step on the blue platform in the doorway to enter.

Jiosin Shrine solution

Push the X block through the X hole

The first room is split by a lattice wall with an X-shaped hole high up. Take the doorway on the left, where a flat stone X lies on the floor. Grab it with Ultrahand, carry it back and rotate it until its arms match the hole, then push it through to the other side.

Use the X as a step

Go through the small door in the wall, pick up the X again and set it against the raised ledge on the far side. Climb onto it and pull yourself up into the next room.

Build a staircase for the chest

The second room has a block of two stone cubes joined at an offset. Stand it against the right-hand wall, one cube beside the other, and climb both cubes to the ledge with the chest (see below). You can also place it and use Ascend.

Turn the double cube into a diamond

Drop back down, take the block to the lattice wall and rotate it vertically and horizontally until both cubes stand on their corners, one above the other, matching the two stacked diamonds cut in the wall. Push it through.

Stair up to the altar

Pass through the door on the left side of the wall, pull the block back out, lay the cubes flat against the tall ledge at the end of the room, and climb them to the doorway that leads to the altar.

Jiosin Shrine chest

Hasty Elixir: in the second room, build the staircase from step 3 against the high wall and climb to the narrow ledge at the top; the chest sits there. It grants a mid-level speed boost for running, swimming and climbing. Collect it before pushing the double cube through the wall, so you do not have to carry it back.

Light of Blessing

Climb the stairs and examine the green seal on the altar to receive the Light of Blessing.

Tips

Ultrahand reaches through lattice walls, so you can line the block up from either side; the far side often gives a clearer view of the silhouette.
Rotate in short taps and push the block through as soon as its outline matches the hole.
If a block lands awkwardly, pick it up again and re-place it rather than climbing it at a bad angle.
