Genshin Impact Remnants of the Secret Source puzzle solution – Natlan Archon Quest

Form the image of a dragon.

In the Genshin Impact Natlan Archon Quest Chapter V: Act IV - The Rainbow Destined to Burn, you must enter a quest Domain called the "Remnants of the Secret Source," to stop Capitano's Ley Line reconstruction plan. Deep in the Domain, you must solve a puzzle that involves rotating three mechanisms.

How to rotate the device to complete the image and open the path in Genshin Impact

To solve the puzzle, you must rotate three devices until the wheels successfully form the restored image of a dragon. Interacting with a mechanism will Activate the wheel, and it will continuously turn until you click Stop.

Mechanism #1

The first mechanism will rotate a C-shaped segment in the wheel. Activate it, then wait for the wheel to rotate until the shape is positioned like the image above—the closed end of the C-shape must be facing northwest. As soon as it gets into position, interact with the mechanism again to stop it. The segment must glow for a moment to signify that this part of the puzzle was completed successfully. If it didn't glow, try adjusting the wheel again.

Mechanism #2

Transform into a Yumkasaurus, then use its skill to propel toward the upper platform, where the arrow is pointing. You'll find the second mechanism.

The second mechanism rotates three segments, so it can be a bit confusing to position. I strongly suggest paying attention only to the bottom segment (where the arrow is pointing). When you activate the mechanism, simply wait for the bottom segment to reach the position shown above, then stop the mechanism to complete this part of the puzzle. Do note that the section must glow to confirm that it's been positioned correctly. If it didn't glow, you might be off by a few millimeters, so try again!

Mechanism #3

The third mechanism is located on a clearing southwest of the map, which you can get to by gliding. It will start out as a locked mechanism. Approaching it will summon an automaton, which you must defeat to unlock the mechanism. Once unlocked, you can use it similarly to the other two.

The final rotation is fairly easy, as the angle from this position allows you to clearly visualize the image on the wheel. Activate the mechanism and wait for the segment to rotate until the image formed looks exactly like the example above, then stop the rotation. The wheel must glow to signify that the job is done.

When all three wheels have been rotated correctly, a small cutscene of a Precious Chest spawning and gate opening will play, allowing you to proceed with the rest of the quest Domain.
