The Liyue region in Genshin impact is full of secrets, with many chests and puzzles to discover everywhere. Among the quests to find in this part of the map, we find Trip to Tianqiu, a mission that allows you to reap a lot of rewards after several stages.
How to solve the puzzles of Journey to Tianqiu?
To start the quest, go to Tianqiu Valley west of Liyue. Follow the location indicated on the map above to find ruined temples, with a stele to read in the middle. Once the quest is started, you will have to collect three prisms to bring them back to the center of the area.
Start by the temple located to the south. Once you reach the first floor, you will have a test to complete with many enemies to kill. Nothing too difficult here. Progress to the top to release the prism and bring it back to the center of the area.
Go then at the northern temple to find torches to light. Be careful however, it is not a question of turning them on at random, quite the contrary. By lighting a torch, others will go out, while others will burn. So you have to find the right combination.
The first puzzle is simple, just turn on the torch closest to the entrance, as well as that located in the middle of the base of the triangle in front of the first torch.
It gets complicated with the second test. As the screen above indicates, you must light torch number 1, then 2 and finally 3, following the instructions.
In the next room, just turn on all the torches around you to release the prism, and return to the center of the area to drop it.
You only have left the eastern temple. Here, the Geo Traveler is very highly recommended, unless Venti is in your possession. You will face a timed test, where the goal will be to climb as quickly as possible to the top of the temple.
For this, the platforms that the Geo Traveler can create will be very useful for sneaking inside the temple (it's even easier with the Venti air current). At the top, you will find the last prism to bring back to the stele.
A group of bandits will then ambush you. Get rid of them to gain access to three luxurious chests, thus ending the Journey to Tianqiu quest.
