In Genshin Impact The Subterranean Trials of Drake and Serpent are Encanomia world quest and part of the quest chain "From Dusk to Dawn in Byakuyakoku". As part of it, you will have to look for a golden bridle and Reins of Revival, as well as solving various puzzles. If you have any difficulties with its passage, then study our guide.
Passage of the quest "The Subterranean Trials of Drake and Serpent"
How to start a task
It starts automatically immediately after completing the previous quest in the line called "Entrance to Tokoe" .
Examine the mechanism and open the gate
After activating the teleport, move forward. You will need to get to the nearest ruins. Glide down first, then climb up the mountains. Don't forget to activate the teleporters along the way, as you will need them in the future.
Having flown to a small area, go to the island and activate the fast travel point. Then start climbing towards the indicated area, moving along the western side of the location. Fighting mobs is optional. Once in the right place, you will find a blocked pedestal, guarded by hilichurls and Pyro the abyss mage. At the latter, the Hurdle can be quickly broken by Cryo or Hydro attacks.
Having dealt with the enemies, you will need to activate the found triangular mechanism (study the entry about it in the Archive). To do this, you will need to hit him from a certain distance. Choosing the required distance is easy - a cube will light up in the center of the pedestal as soon as you are at the desired distance.
As for this particular device, it can be activated by any melee attack. Immediately after that, the door ahead will open. Enter the ruins. You will then need to chat with the person on the 2nd floor.
Chat with Endze and find out what he's doing here. You will also find out that you have to pass a lot of tests. Plus, he'll give you a short assignment. "A Glimpse Into the Pale Night" , which will allow you to open the entire Encanomiya map.
Solve the puzzle behind the library
Head to the indicated area to start looking for the Golden Bridle. Just glide onto the roof of the stone building and then drop down to the ground. Next, you will need to solve a small puzzle.
To do this, look for two triangular mechanisms in the area and hit them from close range. The screenshots below show the location of the required objects.
Go inside the building, go around the lattice gate and open a rich chest. In it you will find a Golden Bridle. Now you can return to Endza in the library (use the nearest teleporter). The scientist will tell you that he will be waiting for you next to the barrier at the Solar Tower.
Keep researching
A new quest marker will appear. Follow her, dealing with monsters along the way. You will often have to fly over the abyss, so be careful when making jumps. Move forward into the cave and deal with the Pyro Abyss Mage guarding the chest. There will be a new teleporter ahead - activate it.
Note that you do not need to climb to the top of the island now, since the required area is located under the tower, at the bottom. Therefore, after unlocking the fast travel point, continue to walk forward along the edge of the island, flying from one ledge to another. As a result, you will reach a small floating island.
The quest marker will point to water ring is a special mechanism that works exactly like the Phase Gate on Inazuma. Enter it and move to the right place. On the way, you will take the Key Sigil. This is a new type of oculos that will come in handy for you to solve some puzzles.
Enter the second ring and fly to the next location. Activate the new teleporter and glide down. You will be taken to The Serpent’s Heart Island. Move to the new quest marker by climbing up. You will find yourself near the destroyed bridge.
Go to Dainichi Mikoshi
You can go upstairs and activate a new teleport. Then move to another broken bridge and use the water rings to fly over to the other side. Along the way, you will find a stone box in which you can find mora.
Once on the other side, chat with Enjo. Give him the golden bridle so that he can remove the Hurdle from the passage. Walk forward and activate the new teleportation point. Climb up the stone steps, having dealt with all the enemies (although you can just run past them). Enter inside the tower.
Explore the mechanisms
Start climbing up the narrow stone stairs. At the top you will meet Endze. You don't need to talk to him - just interact with the mechanism. Watch the cut-scene during which Enkanomiya will fall into the night.
A ghost named Aru will appear and tell you that you need to find the Reins of Revival. To do this, you will have to find 3 fragments hidden in The Serpent’s Heart, Gorge and Temple of Eternal Night. After talking with Aru, the trophy will unlock "Of Sun and Moon".
Collect three fragments
3 new quests will appear in your quest log: "The Heart of Ouroboros", "The Trail of Drake and Serpent" And "Dreams in the Gaps" . In each of them you have to solve puzzles to find fragments. We have indicated their detailed walkthrough in separate guides.
When you get all 3 fragments, return to Aru and chat with him. Before that, you will need to switch the mechanism for the night. The ghost will be at the bottom. Give him all your findings. He will tell you about the Bloodbranch Coral, which can be obtained from the vishaps of the depths that live under Dainiti Mikosi.
Note: We do not advise you to take many Pyro heroes to the team, as the last boss will be fiery.
Defeat the Vishaps of the Deep and Voidreader: Blaze of the Abyss
First of all, you will need to open the path to the final test. To do this, simply interact with the seal on the floor to activate the elevator. You will start going down towards the monsters. You will have to fight at once with 3 vishaps of the depths. However, they are not very strong, so you should deal with them without any problems.
When you kill them, watch a new cut-scene, after which Enjoe will turn into a boss named Devouring Flame of Darkness. It belongs to the Pyro element, therefore it is vulnerable to Hydro and Cryo attacks. You can also freeze it without any problem and create a Melt reaction.
In the quest, this boss is not very strong. He will sometimes summon Pyro and Hydro Mages. Use the latter to create a Freeze. You can not pay attention to the henchmen at all, trying to quickly deal with the main enemy.
After finishing off the Reader of the Abyss, watch the new cutscene, and then get the Bloodbranch Coral by simply examining the body of the vishap of the depths. Next, you will need to return to Tsuyuko in Sangonomiya. To do this, open the map, click on the star sign (in the lower right corner of the screen) and select the Inazuma region. Then just specify the desired teleport.
When the conversation ends, this quest chain will come to an end. As a reward, you will receive 300 adventure points, 40 source stones, 4 hero experience and 30,000 pestilence. You will also unlock the trophy "A Fire Rat’s Robe, Dragon-Head Pearl, Sacred Offering Bowl, and...".
