How to Find the Secret Stashed in the Arcane Archive

To find the Secret Stashed in the Arcane Archive, you must use your Adeptal Energy to match the colored scrolls with the colored shelves. Remember that you must read the Guhua Notes to trigger the Adeptal Energy in each shelf!

How to Find the Secret in the Archive

How to Match the Scrolls in the Archive
1
After reading the whole of Guhua Notes, proceed to the mechanism at the middle of the Arcane Archive, then use your Elemental Sight to see the color of the scrolls and shelves.
2
At first, you'll notice the Purple Shelf is empty, and that the Orange Shelf beside it has a Purple Scroll inside. Face the Purple Scroll and use your Adeptal Energy to get it, then place the Purple Scroll in the empty Purple Shelf using your Adeptal Energy.

The Orange Shelf should be empty afterwards. Get the Orange Scroll from the Blue Shelf, and as with the first scroll, use your Adeptal Energy to place it into the Orange Shelf.
4
Next, get the Blue Scroll from the Yellow Shelf using your Adeptal Energy, and place it into the Blue Shelf.
5

https://gamewith.net/genshin-impact/article/show/43663 this guide is more detailed, read the book in the cavity all the way through which will allow you to move the scrolls using the adeptal energy, then use elemental sight to see the colours of the scrolls and the book shelf to rearrange it so all the colours match
