Sukyoji Bell Kuji-Kiri Location in Assassin’s Creed Shadows

The Sukyoji Bell Kuji-kiri challenge can be completed in the Sukyoji Temple. The temple is located in the Tamba region, south of Miyazu Bay. If you follow the river south from Miyazu Bay, hugging the western edge of the map, you will arrive at Sukyoji Temple soon. If you approach from the south, travelling from Chasuriyama, the temple will be on the left after you cross a bridge over the river.

Upon entering the Sukyoji Temple premises, head into the structure on the right with twin doorways. Past the first row of pillars, you will see the kuji-kiri spot on the right, overlooking a garden where a giant ceremonial bell is suspended. Interact with the spot to begin the Sukyoji Bell kuji-kiri activity.

How To Complete the Sukyoji Bell Kuji-kiri?

As Naoe sits down to meditate, you will need to perform quick-time events as they appear.

Each circle will have a button assigned to it, which you will have to press when it glows and a ring appears around it. The pattern follows this sequence:

The exact buttons you need to press will vary based on your system and input settings. However, the same button will appear in a set position during kuji-kiri. Placing a finger over each button and following this rhythm will simplify the challenge.

This will not have a negative impact on any achievements or trophies.
