Chi Points Grow a Garden is the main event currency players need to unlock exclusive Zen Shop items during the Zen Event. Understanding how to collect and use Chi Points efficiently can make a huge difference in maximizing your rewards and overall progress throughout the event. This guide will walk you through all the essential details, including the role of Tranquil mutation, rarity rewards, the Zen Shop system, and the path to exclusive pets like Kitsune.
What Are Chi Points in Grow a Garden Zen Event?
Chi Points Grow a Garden are a special event currency introduced for the Zen Event. Players can only obtain Chi Points by turning in plants or fruits that have the Tranquil mutation. To do this, interact with the Brown Raccoon NPC in the central area and select either “Take all my Tranquil plants” or submit each Tranquil fruit one by one.
The amount of Chi Points you receive is determined by the rarity of the plant or fruit:
-
Common: 1 Chi
-
Uncommon: 2 Chi
-
Rare: 3 Chi
-
Legendary: 4 Chi
-
Mythical: 5 Chi
-
Divine: 6 Chi
-
Prismatic: 7 Chi
-
Transcendent: 8 Chi
You can also earn Chi Points by submitting Tranquil mutated plants to Unk the Monk, which helps upgrade the Zen Tree and unlocks more event rewards.
How to Get Tranquil Mutation and Collect Chi Points
Tranquil mutation is key to earning Chi Points. There are several ways to get Tranquil plants during the Zen Event:
-
Take advantage of the Zen Aura event, which appears every hour for ten minutes. This is the prime time for plants in your garden to gain Tranquil mutation.
-
Use Zen eggs or specific pets, such as Tanchozuru, to increase your chances of growing Tranquil fruits.
-
Apply Tranquil mutation directly to pets if you have mutation items available.
Once you have collected Tranquil fruits, turn them in to:
-
The Brown Raccoon at the Zen Shop for direct Chi Points
-
Unk the Monk to contribute to Zen Tree upgrades and receive both Chi Points and tree rewards
How to Use Chi Points and Unlock Zen Shop Exclusive Items
Chi Points can only be spent in the Zen Shop, where you’ll find a wide selection of exclusive event rewards:
-
Zen seed packs
-
Unique pets and Zen pet eggs
-
Cosmetic crates and gnome crates
-
Special items, including the chance for the new Kitsune pet, which can steal fruit and apply the Chakra mutation
Note that Sheckles, the regular game currency, cannot be used to buy Zen Shop items but are still helpful for restocking shop inventory if your desired item is sold out.
The best strategy for spending Chi Points is to focus on limited-time and high-value items that won’t be available after the Zen Event ends.
Chi Points, Rarity, and the Path to Exclusive Rewards
The higher the rarity of your Tranquil plant, the more Chi Points you will earn per fruit. This makes it worth prioritizing plants and fruits with higher rarity during the Zen Event to maximize your Chi collection. By consistently trading in Tranquil fruits and upgrading the Zen Tree, you unlock additional event-exclusive content and improve your chances of obtaining rare rewards.
Tips for maximizing your Chi Points:
-
Always turn in your Tranquil fruits to Brown Raccoon or Unk the Monk for efficient Chi collection
-
Focus on harvesting rare and high-rarity plants for better Chi returns
-
Take part in every Zen Aura event to maximize your Tranquil mutation opportunities
-
Spend your Chi wisely, as Zen Shop items are only available for a limited time
