Genshin Impact players can only obtain the Scarlet Sand Slate gadget by starting the Golden Dream quest in the Sumeru desert. Talk to Bonifaz in Aaru Village to start the quest, and by following the navigation, players will eventually get the said gadget.

The first clearance for the Scarlet Sand Slate can be obtained in the Golden Dream quest under a sub-quest called 'The Secret of Al-Ahmar,' right after opening the coffin inside King Deshret's Mausoleum and granting access to the upper floor.

2) Golden Dream: The Secret of Al-Ahmar

Clearance of Khaj-Nisut is the second clearance for Scarlet Sand Slate, and Genshin Impact players can also obtain this one from 'The Secret of Al-Ahmar' sub-quest in Golden Dream. Travelers are still inside King Deshret's Mausoleum and must proceed deep within the ruins.

3) Dual Evidence: Ferryman's Clearance

The next clearance will be automatically gained after players start the Dual Evidence quest by talking to Soheil in Aaru Village. Keep in mind that this quest will only be available after the Golden Dream is completed, and players need to wait for one daily server reset.

4) Dual Evidence: Place of Rebirth

After reaching Sekhem Hall, Genshin Impact players will find three new locations in their Scarlet Sand Slate gadget. One of them is Place of Rebirth, and by completing the puzzle in this location, they will gain access to the fourth clearance.

5) Dual Evidence: Place of Rebirth

The fifth clearance is also within the Dual Evidence quest, under the Place of Rebirth in Scarlet Sand Slate. This puzzle is similar to the previous location, where players needed to guide Primal Embers to their torches.

6) Dual Evidence: Place of Breath

The final clearance for Scarlet Sand Slate is from Place of Breath under the Dual Evidence quest. This puzzle is the easiest out of three Places in the Scarlet Sand Slate gadget, as all the Primal Embers are near each other.
