To confirm her suspicions, Violet sent a message through the contract to her little dragon still on the first floor, asking her to step into the array as well.

 

The contract received a positive response, but Miss Priestess waited in place for nearly half a minute, still without any sign of her pet appearing.

 

“As expected…”

 

This was a random teleportation array.

 

This place was definitely still within the spire. Judging from the situation, creatures entering the teleportation array would be randomly transported to any floor. In other words, while there was a very small chance of directly reaching the top of the tower, the greater likelihood was being trapped inside and going around in circles.

 

So, this was the significance of “climbing.”

 

The Sky Temple’s spire soared into the clouds, and no one knew exactly how many floors there were. Trying your luck to reach the top was extremely difficult. In some sense, it was more torturous than climbing layer by layer with your own legs.

 

After all, while Violet might not find the burden of spatial teleportation too taxing, it was difficult for ordinary creatures to endure it continuously. The interstitial space was not as stable as the mortal realm.

 

This could be seen from the fact that crossing the “Gate of Transference” required wearing protective gear, or hiding inside a magical beast.

 

“Master, I didn’t see you. There’s an issue with this teleportation array.”

 

Soon, the pet’s thoughts came through the contract, indicating that she had also discovered the clue.

 

Before Violet could reply, the little dragon girl threw another sentence:

 

“Do you need me to blast through this place? I can sense the master’s location.”

 

*Cough cough cough!*

 

【Stop, stop, stop, calm down!】

 

It’s way too extreme to just blast through without any further consideration!

 

After all, this is ultimately a sacred place for the Winged People, even more important than the Feather Palace. If Xiao Guang were to directly blast through or even split it in half, it would be quite difficult for her to explain.

 

Things haven’t reached the point where we need to forcefully resort to violence. It seems that Seth has probably delayed the Divine Rite, so it shouldn’t be over so quickly.

 

The Winged People have managed this place for a thousand years, and with the protection of the gods, it’s not something that can be easily destroyed by just anyone.

 

That’s why Violet chose to enter the temple from below according to the rules, rather than charging directly into the sky and smashing through the top walls and barriers.

 

After soothing the somewhat agitated dragon lady who had been separated from her master, Violet began to think about a plan.

 

In fact, reuniting with Xiao Guang wasn’t difficult at all. They were connected by a strong contract, so all she needed to do was to let the little dragon return to her pet space, then summon her again.

 

Although this tower is covered by barriers, seemingly isolating conventional spatial teleportation, summoning, and physical or magical impact, it also has its limits. The priority of the contract formed between Violet and Xiao Guang clearly surpasses the restrictions of this place.

 

To be safe, it’s better to gather first.

 

After summoning Xiao Guang back to her side, the restless energy and expression on her gradually subsided. It seemed she had been a bit hasty earlier.

 

The idea of blasting through the tower mentioned earlier probably wasn’t a joke.

 

After informing Xiao Guang of the gathered intelligence, the blonde girl also furrowed her brows.

 

“So, what should we do, Master? Are we really going to keep trying one by one? That seems really foolish.”

 

“Well, about that…”

 

At that moment, Sethlin’s voice rang out again.

 

【Don’t worry. I recognize this type of spatial array structure. Its prototype should be the Displacement Array created by Minerva. I’ve seen it a few times before. Although it looks like it has been modified somewhat, the principle remains the same.】

 

Miss Priestess’s eyes suddenly lit up.

 

【Oh, I see! Teacher Sethlin, please guide me!】

 

【… What other strange nickname are you giving me? Clearly, it’s such a critical moment, yet you’re not worried or afraid at all… Let me tell you, after entering this tower, I can already sense the presence of fragments in this place. It’s very powerful, at least one-third of Seth’s full strength during her prime.】

 

【If the Withering One, who has already restored to the realm of gods, gets hold of it, he might even regain a position close to the main god. That’s a power far beyond what ordinary deities can match. When that happens, it will truly be a disaster. Do you understand, Violet?】

 

【Hmm… I understand, I understand, but there’s no point in being so tense, right? So, how do we get up there now?】

 

【Why do I feel like you have no clue at all… Anyway, in short, the most important thing to quickly reach the top of the tower is to obtain coordinates, which is also called traction. Of course, since no one is here to do it now, you need to anchor those coordinates yourself.】

 

【Anchor? How do I anchor them?】

 

In a gentle and serious manner, Sethlin explained, like an encouraging mentor.

 

【Of course, it’s through the power of your soul, Violet. Your soul is very powerful. Although I’m not sure where the limit lies, it has indeed reached a level above that of a god. But it seems like you rarely, if ever, actively use this power.】

 

【This is quite wasteful behavior. You should know that the greatest difference between us deities and mortals lies in the power of our godhood and soul. This should be a power that deities naturally know how to use. I never asked before, but why…】

 

【I’m not some deity, just happened to be relatively strong… As for soul power, I have indeed tried to practice it, but no one taught me, and until now, I’ve just been experimenting on my own.】

 

【Hmm…】

 

Sethlin seemed uninterested in debating whether or not Violet was a god.

 

As a goddess representing life, gentle and inclusive, Sethlin never attempted to pry into Violet’s secrets in any form, even though as someone who clearly had surpassed the realm of gods, her existence walking freely in the world seemed quite discordant to Sethlin.

 

【It’s okay, I’ll teach you. Once you grasp the basics, you can adapt the application methods yourself.】

 

【Oh, thank you, Teacher Sethlin!】

 

This was truly a timely blessing.

 

Violet was just wondering whom to consult, and Sethlin, as the former Goddess of Earth and one of the three major deities of the Order Side, who had recovered many memories, undoubtedly possessed valuable experience.

 

【Close your eyes, abandon the vision of your physical body, and gradually extend a part of your soul outward, imagining the sensation of using your hands and feet. Yes, unleash your imagination. The soul is a magical entity with form but no substance. It is the true body of the gods, capable of dividing into all things according to their thoughts.】

 

Sethlin’s voice echoed in her mind. Perhaps her explanation seemed somewhat obscure and difficult to understand to ordinary people, but for some reason, Violet, following her guidance, felt exceptionally relaxed and comfortable, as if things were falling into place effortlessly.

 

A new body gradually took shape outside her physical form.

 

Previously, she had simply spread out her immense soul power like casting a net, naturally able to see everything within its reach.

 

But this was undoubtedly a rather superficial or wasteful application.
