"Such an evil square, such an evil Buddha sculpture."
"If I rashly step into it, I too would struggle to break free."
Han Yi's heart trembled with alarm.
The reason he had managed to break free earlier was that he had foreknowledge of the square's strangeness, setting aside a thought to control his gaze, preemptively determining that at a certain moment later, the Soul Cut Blade would sever this thread of thought, allowing him to break free.
In the beginning.
When Jin Sheng and Li Zhengyang, along with three others, broke into this place, they indeed sat down to recite scriptures in the square due to their unawareness, entrapped by its beguilement.
Their escape from the peculiar square and Buddha sculpture was thanks to another half-immortal named Wu Hou, a Soul Cultivator who sensed the danger and evil nature. At the cost of damaging his Half-immortal Soul Artifact, Wu Hou broke free from the square's seduction, briefly regained clarity, and then led everyone through.
