Destroy the metal flower to destroy the vines. You will be able to do this Relic Ruin only after you have completed the story quest 12, Seeds of the past.
After the vines are destroyed, enter the room behind them. Pull out the crate from the room and push it to the end of the platform as shown below.
Use the crate to climb up the platform. Rotate the valve on the platform to raise the blast door as shown in the pictures below.
The blast door will close after some time. Quickly jump down and proceed to the next room before the blast door closes. Go to the end of this room and use the pullcaster to break the wall as shown in the picture below. Behind the broken wall, you will find a railcar. Pull out the railcar back up to the blast door.
On the right side wall, you will see three vertical beams. Use the pullcaster to pull down the beams and make them horizontal.

Climb up the railcar again and from there go to the locked door as shown below. Use the key module to open the locked door and enter the Repository Maintenance room.
Inside this room, you will find a vent as shown below. Use the pullcaster to open the vent. Then enter the vent.
When you come out from the other side of the vent, you will find a firegleam wall. Ignite the firegleam to blow up the wall. On walking through the blown-up wall, you will reach back to the blast door valve as shown in the picture below. Rotate the valve to open the door.
Then quickly jump down and pull the railcar below the blast door. This will keep the blast door from closing as shown in the picture below. Now climb up the rods on the door to reach the top.
Jump on the ledge on the left side of the blast door. Then drop down on the upper floor and use the pullcaster to break the wall as shown in the picture below.
