Assuming you have taken The Ancient Cave quest from Asdza and have the objective 'Search Shell Island,' to complete the quest in Arcane Odyssey, you must stand on the middle platform inside the Ancient Hall secret area.

Also, make sure to jump on the pillar-like platform and move around a little bit to complete the objective and progress The Ancient Cave quest. What most do is either stand at the entrance of the Ancient Hall or jump on the platform and then exit the cave.

But most of the time, the action won't register, and The Ancient Cave quest will not progress. And that is why you must stand and keep moving on the central platform inside the Ancient Hall.

Apart from that, you can also server-hop and keep trying, as some players have reported that their achievement and exploration progression related to finding the Ancient Hall is not getting registered.

Once you complete the 'Search Shell Island' objective, you must return and talk to Asdza to complete The Ancient Cave quest and receive the XP and other rewards.
