The Nine-Origin Supreme Heavenly Ladder Pagoda stands atop a giant snow-capped mountain at the far western edge of the Heavenly Realm in the Monster Beast World. The pagoda does not appear particularly large—far smaller than the Holy Pagoda on the Prosperous Spirit Continent—and it sits nestled upon the peak. Yet, neither the naked eye nor Soul Sense can discern the true height of this structure. Consequently, it does not look like a typical pagoda; it resembles a ladder reaching toward an endless height.
As Lin Fei and his group of four arrived at the entrance, other cultivators were also entering to climb the ladder. Two ice-encrusted stone pillars stand on either side of the entrance. Any cultivator intending to enter the pagoda must pass between them. Upon doing so, the pillars emit a purple glow, scanning the entrant's entire body like a scanner. Lin Fei had long since learned that these pillars act as a detection device, identifying if a climber is carrying any unauthorized living creatures. Furthermore, the pillars store the basic soul information of each climber. For those ascending as independent individuals, their soul information is extracted and retained. This ensures that if anyone provides assistance to another climber after entering, the laws of heaven will be triggered, resulting in their destruction.
Beyond the pillars lies a shimmering portal of light.
