Ukoojisi Shrine Walkthrough
Ukoojisi Shrine in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom belongs to the crystal shrine category. You can only unlock and access this shrine once you find and return its life crystal.
The quest associated with Ukoojisi Shrine is called The West Necluda Sky Crystal.
1. The green light originating from Ukoojisi Shrine points to an island high in the air to its left. There is apparently no way to access it.
2. Turn back and rotate the lever in the middle of the island such that the catapult device faces a bit left to the shrine. You will notice a small island up there with a large ramp.
3. Use the catapult machine to get airborne and glide to the island with the ramp. Many zonai devices, including a wing device, are present here.
4. Connect a couple of zonai fans to the wing device, a steering stick, a few batteries, and a rocket to gain altitude. Your final vehicle should look like the one in the picture above.
5. Pick up the vehicle with Ultrahand and place it on the railing near the ramp. Get on the vehicle and use the steering stick. This will activate all zonai devices at once and you will be propelled into the air alongside the wing device.
6. Turn right to reach the island where the green light from Ukoojisi Shrine is pointing. The entrance to the cave on the island is blocked by some vines. Either cut them down with a sharp blade or use Fire Arrows (Fire Fruit + Arrows) to burn them down.
7. Enter the cave and pick up the green crystal from behind another set of vines. Attach the crystal to your flying vehicle.
8. Attach your vehicle to a skateboard zonai device present in the area.
9. Move your zonai wing in a way to face the entrance of the cave. Get on it and start flying it with the help of the steering stick.
10. Once you reach the island where the Ukoojisi Shrine is, make sure to land your vehicle in a place where you don’t risk losing the crystal.
11. Remove the crystal from the vehicle and return it to the Ukoojisi Shrine in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. This will complete The West Necluda Sky Crystal shrine quest and the shrine will appear.
12. As Ukoojisi is a blessing shrine, there are combat or puzzle challenges inside. Open the treasure chest to obtain a Mighty Zonaite Shield.
13. Interact with Rauru and Sonia’s statues to complete the Ukoojisi Shrine and earn a Light of Blessing as a reward. You can exchange four Lights of Blessing at any Goddess statue to either increase your health or stamina.
