List of Ascension Materials to farm for Yelan in Genshin Impact

Yelan is featured in the first half of Genshin Impact's 4.0 update, so some Travelers may wish to pre-farm her Ascension Materials.

Yelan requires a multitude of Ascension Materials that are readily available for players to farm. The only major obstacle for players is the Runic Fangs drop, which requires them to complete the quest, Surreptitious Seven-Star Seal Sundering to access.

Aside from that, everything else required to level up Yelan is pretty simple to obtain and will be explained ahead.
