Just became an evil god and was summoned by the saint

Given her current situation, even if she solidifies the Divine Ascension Steps, she will ultimately be unable to ascend.

Since the Ascension Steps are high in the sky, at least several hundred meters high, the method used by those in the shallower divine realms to condense steps under their feet with magic is obviously not feasible.

"Or could we build a spiral staircase up there?"

Celia had a bold idea.

But a spiral staircase, hundreds of meters high... Celia felt that she probably couldn't control herself to that extent.

Destruction with magic is much easier than construction; this kind of delicate work is perhaps only possible after reaching the fourth rank.

Just as Celia was frowning, Ross chuckled and said, "Have you forgotten the difference between the third and fourth tiers?"

"Using external magic... Does Lord Ross mean that using external magic can solve the problem?"

Ross shook his head: "Of course it's not that simple. I'm just giving you a heads-up."

He looked up at the ascending staircase in the sky and smiled slightly: "Instead of guessing here, why not solidify it first and experience it for yourself?"

"Lord Ross is right. Although the time limit is after it is solidified, if we don't call it out, we can't complete the Ascension Trial by just watching it."

So, Celia took action.

Following the village chief's instructions, she began to wander around the village, completing tasks assigned by one villager after another.

The villagers had all sorts of tasks, most of which involved hunting various small animals outside, including sand scorpions, sandworms, lizards, ants, spiders, and a whole host of others.

As Celia hunts, the various small animals outside gradually grow larger.

Before long, all the small animals turned into monsters and possessed the strength of the third tier.

Its size also changed from the size of a palm to the size of a head.

At the same time, the ascension staircase in the sky slowly solidified, just one step away from being completely solidified as the village chief had said.

"The peculiar external conditions seem to indicate that it involves the use of external magic."

Celia raised her hand, and ice blades appeared in her palm. She slowly sensed the magic power in the outside world and used her meager ice magic power.

As it was activated, the steps leading to the divine palace slowly began to glow.

Chapter 533 Everyone is evil

Above the sky, the phantom of the Ascending God Stairs solidified completely, transforming into a glowing staircase.

Of course, only the very top part solidified.

The descending portion of the staircase gradually becomes transparent as it moves downwards, eventually disappearing into mid-air.

Hilia vaguely sensed a connection between herself and the Ascension Stairs.

She returned to Misha.

At this moment, the villagers in Misha Town were all attracted by the glowing Ascension Stairs and gathered in the small square in the middle of the village, pointing and talking about the Ascension Stairs.

Celia's appearance drew friendly nods from many people.

She helped them collect all sorts of odds and ends and ran errands, which earned her the villagers' favor.

Everyone knows her as this 'big traitor'.

This expression made Celia feel very awkward.

The village chief was also among the crowd.

He looked excitedly at the Ascension Staircase in the sky and thanked Celia: "Thank you, traveler from afar. Finally, we see the Ascension Staircase shining brightly again. It is still so enchanting."

Celia looked at the village chief and asked curiously, "Village chief, why are you so excited? What benefits will it bring to the village to solidify the divine steps?"

The village chief shook his head: "There's no benefit to it, but it looks nice."

"is it?"

Celia seemed to be deep in thought.

This village had always given her a strange feeling.

Celia felt that the village chief was definitely hiding something.

If it has nothing to do with the village, why is he so agitated?

Excited by the beautiful scenery?

not necessarily.

After all, no matter how beautiful the scenery is, it shouldn't make you so excited as if you were seeing a god.

Perhaps the solidification of the long steps leading to the god has some special significance for the village.

And this unique feature may be the key to the climb.

From the sensations emanating from the steps leading to the divine throne, Celia could sense that the light would gradually dim after reaching a certain brightness.

From the moment it lit up until it dimmed, it took about ten hours.

Not in a rush, but also in a rush.

The scene here is very fixed.

Celia had been working on the mission for a long time, but the sun in the sky did not move at all, just hanging high in the sky, fixed in one place.

Considering that this is a warp, Celia wasn't too concerned about it.

but……

Celia looked up at the sun.

"After the long staircase leading to the god was lit up, the sun seemed to move."

Celia looked at the village chief and asked, "Village chief, after the steps to the divine altar are lit up, will the village enter night?"

The village chief paused, then said, "Even if it's not light, night will still come. Traveler from afar, what are you thinking? There's no place where night doesn't come."

Your attempt to bury your head in the sand is too obvious.

Celia thought to herself, but her face remained expressionless as she simply nodded, "Understood."

This village is strange. Before, Celia didn't think much of it, but now, as the steps leading to the divine light up, Celia sensed... impatience and pretense from the village chief.

As for what exactly they are impatient about and what they are trying to hide.

Celia is currently unaware of the situation.

But she soon realized it.

Because the sun moves very quickly, it will set in less than two hours, bringing night.

Before that, Celia was going to do one thing—

Go out and continue hunting monsters outside.

The sensation emanating from the long staircase leading to the divine told her that this was the perfect time to invoke external magic.

Ascending the Divine Steps will help her transition from beginner to expert, and it won't be as troublesome as before.

So Celia stopped worrying about village affairs and went outside, where she fought slowly until sunset.

As the sun set, she looked at the demon in front of her, which was faintly approaching the limit of the third tier, raised her hand, and prepared to finish it off.

But just then, she suddenly heard the voice of the monster in front of her: "Traveler, spare my life, don't kill me."

Celia paused, looking in surprise at the two scorpions in front of her, each the size of a head.

It seemed to have awakened to something, and trembled.

"Can you talk?"

"Yes, it is."

Seeing that Celia had stopped attacking, it quickly said:

"The people in Misha Town are all demons, traveler. Please leave here quickly. They collect our tails to increase their strength and gain immense power after nightfall... You can't defeat them, run!"

“Run?” Celia blinked. “The word ‘run’ doesn’t exist in my dictionary, and besides, why should I believe you?”

Just then, a voice came: "Dear traveler, who are you talking to?"

Celia looked up and saw a burly, shirtless man guarding the village entrance, holding a spear. The two of them came over together, smiling at Celia.

Celia frowned at the other person, sensing a subtle malice, and said coldly, "Stop immediately, or I might attack."

"What are you talking about, traveler from afar? We are very grateful to you. Come on, the village is holding a banquet to thank you for making the Ascending God Staircase shine again. The village chief asked us to come find you and attend the banquet together."

As they talked, the two walked over.

The sense of danger quickly enveloped her, and without hesitation, Celia unleashed her Ice Shield spell, layer upon layer.

Then, he summoned the puppet to provide himself with sustain and healing.

The next moment, the spear pierced through layers of ice shields and got stuck between them, less than a meter away from Celia.

"Fourth-tier strength?"

Celia raised an eyebrow, raised her staff, and a spell to draw upon external magic instantly appeared.

Since the other party had attacked, Celia decided not to be polite.

At the same time, she found that her spells flowed more smoothly.

The faint realization that came to her made Celia quickly change her mind, and a huge ice cone appeared from the sky.

Fourth-order spells—

Ice Crystal Missile!

The spell that Ross used to deal with the Blue-winged Seahorse, the mount of the Sea God, was used by Celia.

It feels very smooth, not at all as uncomfortable as when I used it at level 3.

It's as if I've already entered the fourth level.

But Celia knew she hadn't advanced.

This is because of the bonus from ascending to the divine level.

As the two guards retrieved their spears and continued their attack, a giant ice spike descended from the sky and pierced the two guards.

Bang!

There was a loud bang.

Celia pointed her staff.

"burst!"

boom!

Ice Blast detonates the hit ice crystal missiles again.

Large amounts of ice fog and sandstorms have occurred.

After a long time, the icy mist, accompanied by a sandstorm, fell, revealing the scene to Celia.

"He's not dead yet?"

Seeing the two people on the verge of death, Celia was somewhat surprised.

Both men were covered in cuts and bruises, their bodies riddled with wounds, but they endured it.

As Celia pondered whether to simply annihilate them, she suddenly sensed a violent fluctuation of magical energy around her, which was gathering towards the two of them.

As the magic gathered, their injuries quickly healed.

"Can it be restored?"

Seeing this, Celia no longer hesitated and directly manipulated the puppet forward, the Myriad Lights Sword piercing the hearts of the two.

The next second, the two transformed into a beam of light, flew up, and disappeared into the Ascension Staircase.

Celia sensed it; the ascending staircase became even brighter.

The area extending downwards is not only solidified, but also extends further towards the ground.

"Could it be that……"
