В Genshin impact The Source Servant mechanism is a type of puzzle that requires activating the Mystery Source Dragon Statues to solve. They are found primarily on the Ancient Sacred Mountain and require interacting with the environment, such as other nearby devices or saurians, to complete them.
In this guide we will tell you how to complete all the puzzles with the Servants of the Source, and show their location on the map.
How to solve dragon mechanism puzzles
Stone dragon puzzles are solved in different ways, but the result is usually the same - you need to help all the Servants of the Source restore the statues of the dragon of the secret source, finding all their components. Usually this requires destroying pulverite and interacting with mechanisms, sometimes - catching teasing manitou.
Where to Find All Source Servants in Genshin Impact
The Servants of the Source are found only in the Ancient Sacred Mountain area. There are eight such mysteries in this area.
There is also one dragon puzzle located on the Atokpan Peninsula.
Servant of the Source 1
- Location: A sea of changing consciousness.
Located in the eastern part of the Sea of Shifting Consciousness, near the travel point. When teleported to this area, you can see a Source Servant standing next to a cube with a sealed rich chest. Behind him, you can see a barrier blocking the entrance. To solve the puzzle, you need to enter the cave, activate another Servant, and lower the barrier.
Destroy the barrier
Transform into a Tatankasaurus and start going around the mountain with the cave in a circle from the south until you see a second entrance to the barriered area hidden behind a pulverite. Break it with Saurian skills and enter.
Awaken the Source Servant
Inside, the cave is also filled with pulverite, which must be destroyed. Under the central stone, there is a phlogiston mechanism. Fill it, thereby awakening the Servant of the Source. He will remove the barrier in a moment.
Activate the cube
Follow him. Both dragon mechanisms will lift the cube and open a rich chest. Take the treasure and click "Activate" on the marker that appears.
The servants will pick up the cube and build it into another mechanism. Interact with it and press "Activate" again to summon the Secret Spring Dragon Statue. If desired, you can use it to fly to the neighboring island.

Defeat the Shadow Mimiflora
The final cluster of Pulverite is to the side where the dragon's head should be. Break it, then fight the monsters to get the head.
However, you won't be able to get the part the first time. It will be caught in viscous cores, which must be destroyed by the Tatankasavr's dash. After that, fight the Twilight Mimiflora.
Once all is done, a treasure chest will appear. You can climb on the dragon and activate it to get the Pyrocule.
Servant of the Source 9
Location: southwest of the Atokpan Peninsula.
The final puzzle has two parts, each involving a statue of the Secret Spring Dragon. The first part of the puzzle is in Natlan, southwest of the Tetenanko Ruins. There is a dragon flying in the water, and you need to destroy the cannons on its sides with the help of a Tatankasaurus. This can be done with a powerful blow from the Saurian when the dragon's belly approaches the ground.
Activate the dragon statue
When the dragon stops, take the chest on its head and press "Activate". It will fly to a distant small island with a hidden teleport.
Go through the labyrinth and defeat the lost mechanism
There is a sealed dragon in the center of the arena. Activate the mechanism in front of it.
After that, platforms will rise, forming a small labyrinth in which there are no forks, so it is impossible to get lost. Move along it, avoiding exploding mines. Also avoid circles of light, since getting into them activates cannons that not only cause high damage, but also knock the character off his feet.
At the end of the corridor, after all the traps, activate the mechanism again, which will remove the walls and the barrier. The dragon will rise and fly around the arena. Dodge its attacks, as the characters' blows do not damage the mechanism. Stand in the circle of light near the dragon cannons around the perimeter of the arena to activate them to deal damage. At the end, you can pick up a luxurious chest.
