"This sword suppresses me, and I can't leave. Can you try to move the sword and let me out?"
Lin Chen's eyes widened in shock. "Senior, aren't you overestimating me? With my strength, how could I even move this sword an inch?"
Chi Zai said, "Who asked you to move the sword? If you could move it, do you think it could still suppress me?"
Lin Chen asked in confusion, "Then what should I do?"
Chi Zai explained, "There's a Sword Talisman left on this sword by that person. It's what drives the sword. If you can break the Sword Talisman, without it to power the sword, I'll be able to free myself from its suppression and escape."
Lin Chen's expression turned slightly odd; the scenario seemed all too familiar.
A powerful being suppressed, with a talisman affixed to the object suppressing them. Just remove the talisman, and the suppressed would break free to regain their unfettered power.
"Where's the Sword Talisman?"
"It's on the blade of the sword."
