The waypoint for the Akasha Pulses, the Kalpa Flame Rises will unlock after players complete the Archon mission: the Secret of the Scorching Desert. To start this task, Travelers must go to Aaru Village in the desert region to talk to Candace. Then, once you speak with this character, you’ll begin the sub-storyline, Through the Predawn Night.

Through the Predawn Night

The beginning of the Through the Predawn Night quest features several cutscenes with various characters, where you’ll learn more about the plan to save the Lesser Lord Kusanali. After a couple of days have passed, players must prepare for this scheme by eliminating nine Eremites in less than five minutes. Although it is a timed mission, this task is relatively simple, primarily because a group of guards will help you in this battle.

When players take these enemies down, they’ll finish the first part of the Akasha Pulses, the Kalpa Flame Rises quest in Genshin Impact.

As by a God’s Side

The next storyline, As by a God’s Side, continues the preparation for the Dendro Archon plan, in which you’ll talk to Dehya and Tighnari. During this time, Dehya and the Traveler must track down the Fatui Harbinger, known as “the Doctor.”

Once you go to Port Ormos, you’ll need to follow Fatui soldiers to progress further in this mission. The only way to do this feat is by avoiding nearby guards, who will have an eye meter above their heads:

You can use the environment to your advantage by hiding behind crates or walking up higher elevated areas. If players succeed in this task, they must go to Pardis Dhya to defeat Fatui soldiers and assist Tighnari. These enemies will have different elemental powers, including Electro, Pyro, and Geo. With this in mind, it’s a good idea to have Pyro, Hydro, and Cryo users in your party to counter their protective shield.

Jnagarbha Day

The Jnagarbha Day sub storyline of the Akasha Pulses, the Kalpa Flame Rises quest is pretty straightforward, but you may get a bit lost when the game assigns the task: “Find a way to connect to Nahida’s consciousness.” To locate the connection to Nahida in Genshin Impact, players must go around the room and press ‘Investigate’ near bright spots:

When Travelers find the correct area, they’ll take control of Nilou and Isak. As Isak, you must choose these options:

  • Hide behind the house
  • Hide towards the left
  • Return to the position behind the house
  • Keep waiting
  • Towards the Grand Bazaar

If you select another route, try to hide from the guards and always choose ‘Towards the Grand Bazaar’ in the final decision.

Where the Boat of Consciousness Lies

This Genshin Impact quest features several battles with enemies in the Deus Foundry Domain. That being said, players must prepare for this showdown by loading up their inventory with meals and choosing the best party members. In the first fight, you’ll need to defeat the Hyrdrogunner Legionnaire (use Electro) and the Electro Vanguard (use Cryo).

Here is a step-by-step guide to help you with the rest of the Domain:

  1. Use the Four-Leaf Sigils to explore the Domain.

  2. Climb up the pipe.
