Now that you’ve located the Crystal Encased chest, the next thing you need to find is two Attunement Crystals. One is purple and one is yellow. In order to get them, you will need to use your Dragonriding mount. You'll be able to find them on top of the pillars - they're pretty small, so you’ll need to keep a careful eye out.

The Purple Crystal can be found at 37.71, 68.87. For the Yellow Crystal, you can find it at 39.41, 73.32. Fly back to the chest and you will have to activate the crystals in order for it to work. There will be a small animation before you can open the chest, but then you can open it and get your rewards!

You'll be able to get your hands on an intellect trinket and Whelpling's Shadowflame Crest Fragments for your troubles.
