Teleport to the waypoint west of the Legendary Tonatiuh's marker on the map and turn left to use the bridge. Keep heading northeast and jump off the bridge to find a floating platform near the wall connecting the large pillar in the north.

Teleport to the waypoint on the Altar of Primal Flame floating island and glide southwest to find two floating platforms. You can also use the teleport waypoint west of Cradle of Fleeting Dreams if you haven't unlocked the Altar of Primal Flame waypoint. Then, fly northeast using a Qucusaur's skill.

On these platforms, you can find two Relay Ball puzzles. Start with the one at a higher altitude.

Follow these steps to solve the puzzles:

  • Indwell the Yumkasaur and pull the pillar on the left side of the Relay Ball receiver.
  • Aim and release the ball on the other side.
  • Use the Yumkasaur skill to pull the other pillar to reset the position.

This will give you a Precious Chest, worth 10 Primogems in Genshin Impact. Collect the treasure and head to the next floating platform.

  • Indwel the Yumkasaur and pick up the ball.
  • Aim and release it at the receiver on the left side.
  • Pull the pillar below that receiver to change the position.

This will give you an Exquisite Chest, worth five Primogems, and unlock the Under the Tonatiuh's Wings hidden achievement.
