Genshin Impact: How To Collect The Burning Firestones (The Flowing Primal Flame Quest)

In Genshin Impact, after assisting Bona in purifying the Abyssal Corruption from the Chu'ulel Light Core, players must help her find the Primal of Flame. Once located, Travelers must offer two Pyrophosphorites (obtained during the Palace of the Vision Serpent Quest) to the Altar of Primal of Flame.

This offering opens a path to Tonatiuh, a floating island above Ochkanatlan's Cradle of Fleeting Dreams. Reaching Tonatiuh completes the To the Sky-Road Quest and begins The Other Side of the Sky Quest, requiring Travelers to gather four Burning Firestones to acquire the Jade of Return.

Acquiring the Four Burning Firestones:

Burning Firestone #1

The first Firestone is obtained during a cutscene after reaching Tonatiuh. Follow the Little One across a bridge (using a lift mechanism) and interact with the Saurian and Bona.

Burning Firestone #2

The second Firestone is on the northeastern isle. Players must manipulate floating island mechanisms, cross bridges, raise a lift, and defeat an enemy before collecting it. A Common and an Exquisite chest are also obtainable in this area.

Burning Firestone #3

To get the third Firestone, manipulate floating island mechanisms to access the northern isle's lower level. Follow the Little One, observe the Secret Source Sentinel's actions, utilize a Qucusaurus to reach a Pyroculus, activate mechanisms, and finally return to the Altar via a lift.

Burning Firestone #4

The final Firestone is on the northwestern isle's upper level. Players must use Bona's assistance to cross a bridge, glide to the upper level, lower a lift, and defeat another enemy before retrieving it. A Precious chest can also be found here.

Offering all four Firestones to the Altar completes The Flowing Primal Flame Quest, transforming the Jade of Return into a Golden Entreaty. The Dragon of the City of Flowing Ash then appears, leading players to the Nursery of Nightmares to finish The Other Side of the Sky Quest and receive 50 Primogems.
