Quick Links
The Satori Mountain Crystal is a Shrine Quest in theLegend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. You can find the shrine, which is called Usazum Shrine, in the eastern section of Hyrule Field. It is significantly easier to find if you activate the Hyrule Field Skyview Tower before looking for it.
Completing this shrine quest unlocks a Rauru’s Blessing in the shape of the Usazum Shrine. This quest will take you into the Satori Mountain Foothill Cave, which means you can also grab yourself another Bubbul Frog from this jaunt. Once you find the shrine, you need to track down a crystal to activate it.

The Satori Mountains are on thewestern side of Hyrule Field.you may also reach it from Hyrule Ridge bycrossing Jeddo Bridge.
TheOutskirts Stable in Hyrule Fieldis close to the Satori Mountains, if you haveTsutsu-um Shrine unlocked. As isSonapan Shrineif you want to travel there and head south to reach the mountains. For the sake of this guide, we have approached this shrine from the Outskirts Stable.
Simply head north and follow the path leadingacross Manhala Bridge. Continue on the route and take thecenter roadwhen it branches. Passing through the Dalite Forest,the shrine will be to your leftwhen you reach the end of the road.
How To Unlock Usazum Shrine
Interact with the shrine to activate the Satori Mountain Crystal Shrine Quest. You will see in front of the shrine, where the green light is pointing,there is a cave entrance.
Make your way up the hill and head intothe Satori Mountain Foothill Cave. You might have noticed that the beam of light showing the crystal’s location ismoving a little bit.
Head inside the cave and make your wayaround the circular pathway. Not only will you see that your screen is intermittently shaking, but the crystal has been snatched up and is beinghoarded by a territorial Hinox.
How To Beat The Hinox
The best way to take down a Hinox is to use astrong bow. Every time you shoot at a Hinox,aim for its large eyeto knock it down and create an opportunity to attack.
This Hinox has areinforced left leg, which means your normal attacks will bounce off it. When you stun with an arrow, eitherattack its back from behindor go for theunprotected leg.
Kill the Hinox and it willdrop the crystal, along with plenty of great monster loot. Grab the crystal with Ultrahand or pick it up yourself. Bring it out of the cave andthrow it down towards the shrine.It will roll most of the way, making delivering it extremely easy.
With the shrine rebuilt, head on in to claim the chest inside Rauru’s Blessing and grab yourself aLight of Blessing for your troubles.
