How to find and open the Hall of Flowing Sand
Fortunately, everything is pretty simple here. You only need to complete the Archon quest “The Unchanging God and the Eternal Utopia” to get to the island of Narukami (Inazuma). Then head to the northern foot of Mount Him, on top of which stands the Great Temple. The entrance to this dungeon is carved right into the rock. All you have to do is walk up to the door and interact with it, meaning there are no puzzles to solve.
You need to make sure that all the cubes are turned by the luminous surface in one direction. To do this, first hit the second cube, and then the fourth (if you count them from left to right). The screenshots below show the solution.

Suitable characters
Given the anomaly of the earth artery here, you should definitely take Geo characters to the squad, as they can provide the party members with reinforced shields and deal additional damage with shock waves. They can be accompanied by Cryo heroes, whose attacks are vulnerable to almost all opponents that you will encounter in this dungeon. Below are the most interesting character variations.

Eola | Using her elemental abilities, she can quickly destroy all mobs. Highly resistant to interrupt attacks. |
Chung Yun | Can inflict Cryo companions with elemental skill damage. Elemental explosion deals significant damage. |
Qi Qi | Can apply cryo status to a large area. Effectively heals allies. |
Diona | Elemental skill grants allies a shield, and an elemental explosion can heal them. |
| Can deal massive Cryo damage with her elemental abilities. |
Zhong Li | Provides a powerful shield and debuffs enemies. His elemental burst deals high damage and inflicts Petrify. |
Albedo < /td> | His elemental blast hits a large area, and his elemental skill allows you to quickly create shields from Crystals. |
| Deals heavy Geo damage with charged attacks and an elemental explosion. |
Noelle < /td> | The elemental skill heals team members and equips them with shields. |

How to get through the Hall of Flowing Sand
The essence of this dungeon is to destroy a certain number of opponents in a specified period of time (usually 6 minutes). Thus, all your efforts should be aimed at dealing maximum damage to the greatest number of enemies, so be sure to take your best damage dealers.
< p>If the timer expires and you still haven't killed all the monsters, the challenge will fail, so you'll have to start from scratch. To speed up the killing of mobs, be sure to use the bonuses of the arteries of the earth. Remember that the Crystallization reaction (Geo + any other element) allows you not only to get a shield, but also to deal additional damage to mobs.
On difficulty level IV, you will mainly be attacked by Electro enemies that are quickly killed by Cryo attacks . So do not forget to take a couple of such characters to the squad. If your heroes are dying quickly, then you should add one healer to the group, for example, Qi Qi, Diona or Noelle.
