There is a way for Genshin Impact players to reach the upmost platform of the biggest ruin in the Genshin Impact 3.1 desert area, and that’s by following its main World Quest. Similar to the Aranyaka questline of version 3.0, the Golden Slumber and Dual Evidence are the primary missions people have to follow in the desert Sumeru.

At the end of Dual Evidence, players will reach the top of King Deshret’s Mausoleum, and many may miss the puzzle that grants a Luxurious Chest here.

Puzzle Solution At The Top Of The Mausoleum Of King Deshret

Aaru’s Shut is a place that exists on top of the Mausoleum of King Deshret, and Genshin Impact players can earn a Luxurious Chest there. To get this top-tier Chest, Travelers must first locate four floating platforms in front of the jackal statues. Then, simply step on them and wait until they disappear, allowing the nearby Primal Beams to connect to the platform in the middle.

If people look to the middle, they’ll see that there are two middle platforms, top and bottom. This first step unlocks the Everlight Cell on the bottom platform.

Next, players need to unlock the Everlight Cell on the top platform. There are three statues between the jackals, and under them is an Everlight Cell and a Primal Sandglass.

Approach the mechanism, then Flip the Primal Sandglass first. Doing this will temporarily summon some Four-Leaf Sigils. Afterward, climb up and use the Move Cell button to make the Cell float up, connecting Primal Beams with the top platform.

The tricky part is that players need to Move all three Cells within a short time. Otherwise, the Cell will return to its original position. Flipping the Primal Sandglass is important as Four-Leaf Sigils can help the job done quickly, but players need to focus on where each mechanism is located.

Once the three Primal Beams connect to the top platform, utilize the Four-Leaf Sigils to go there. If the task is done properly, the Everlight Cell should no longer have a red circle around it.

The next step is to simply Rotate the Cell to connect to a nearby Obelisk. Afterward, glide to the bottom platform and do the same for the Everlight Cell there. Connecting both Primal Beams will cause a Luxurious Chest to automatically spawn. This lootbox grants the following reward:

  • Primogems x10
  • Adventure EXP x30
  • Dendro Sigils x4

Curiously, there is no Genshin Impact achievement granted by this task, so players won’t get the extra five Primogems.

How To Get To The Top Of King Deshret’s Mausoleum

Aaru’s Shut can only be accessed once players follow the Dual Evidence questline to the end. If Travelers have done it and don’t know how to go back, it can be done easily.

Use the Scarlet Sand Slate from the inventory, choose the third option on the left side, then select either Aaru’s Shut or Great Hall of Truths. Press the Go button to activate the Slate’s direction, and simply follow it. Once people arrive at the Great Hall of Truths, walk through the blue triangle door to be automatically transported to the top of the Mausoleum of King Deshret.

Genshin Impact is now available on Mobile, PC, PS4, and PS5. A Switch version is in development.
