Genshin Impact: Illumiscreen III Quest Guide
The Illumiscreen III quest is part of the Lantern Rite event in Genshin Impact, where players solve a lantern puzzle to uncover hidden treasures. Follow our comprehensive guide to complete the Illumiscreen III mission and claim your rewards!
Quest Overview
To begin the Illumiscreen III quest, head to Liyue Harbor and speak to Brother Qian. This event can only be completed at night (between 9:00 PM and 5:00 AM). Brother Qian will explain the mechanics of the Illumiscreen, where you need to align lanterns to form an image. When completed correctly, the image will reveal treasure locations.
In this specific quest, the image you need to form is the Divine Crane. While it sounds simple, the lanterns are linked, meaning rotating one will affect the others. It’s a bit trickier than previous puzzles, so take your time aligning them correctly.
Illumiscreen III Puzzle Solution
To solve the Divine Crane puzzle:
- Find the Lanterns: There are three lanterns in total. Each has a marked rotation direction.
- Rotate the Lanterns: Rotate the lanterns until the crane image appears. You will need to experiment with the lanterns to get the correct alignment. The lanterns are interconnected, meaning rotating one lantern will automatically adjust the others.
- Start by rotating the main lantern in the middle to line up the crane’s body.
- Adjust the other two lanterns to match the wings and tail of the crane.
- Keep tweaking until the full crane image is visible.
Once you complete the puzzle, three treasure locations will appear on your map, marked with a glowing icon. These locations are where you’ll find the treasure hidden by the Adventure Guild.
Illumiscreen III Treasure Locations
The three treasure spots are spread across Liyue. After solving the Illumiscreen puzzle, head to the following locations:
- Lingju Pass – Ruined Watchtower
- Location: West of the Lisha Statue of the Seven.
- How to Find the Chest: You’ll find the treasure chest inside a ruined watchtower. It’s guarded by a Blazing Axe Mitachurl. Defeat this enemy to access the Exquisite Chest at the bottom of the ruins.
- Sea of Clouds – Cliffside
- Location: Near the cliffside overlooking the Sea of Clouds.
- How to Find the Chest: Light the four torches around the chest to unlock it. One of the torches is hidden behind the chest in the rocks, so destroy the rocks to reveal it. Once all torches are lit, the chest will open, granting you the rewards.
- Guyun Stone Forest – Island
- Location: On an island near a Ruin Hunter in the Guyun Stone Forest.
- How to Find the Chest: On the south side of the island, you will find a diggable spot near the Ruin Hunter. Use your character’s digging ability to unearth the treasure chest. Be cautious, as a Ruin Hunter may be guarding the area.
Returning to Brother Qian
Once you’ve collected the treasures from all three locations, return to Brother Qian in Liyue Harbor. He will reward you for your efforts and congratulate you for uncovering the hidden treasures.

Additional Tips
