The Soni Highlands Kuji-Kiri is one of the two Kuji-Kiri locations in the Yamato region, located on the eastern side of Uda Matsuyama. Once you arrive at the location, you will spot a wooden bridge on your right. To get to the exact location, head straight toward the cliff’s edge, where you will notice stairs. Additionally, you can refer to the image attached above for a precise location.

Also, you can use the Observe mode to locate the meditation spot. Once you arrive at the site, you will spot a prompt. Interact with it, and Naoe will sit down for meditation. Next, there will be some patterns that you will have to remember. Soon, the hints will disappear, and you must press the buttons in the same order.

After a while, the tempo of the prompts will increase, requiring you to press the buttons quickly. If you execute this precisely, it will trigger a flashback memory for Naoe. The memory may vary based on the different Kuji-Kiri locations.

Many players may face difficulty remembering the inputs. To make this process easier, go to settings and set quick-time event inputs to Auto under the Gameplay settings.
