Your journey to unlock the purple seal doors starts as soon as you escape your cell. The prison is a maze-like structure with multiple levels and numerous enemies. Here’s how to navigate it:

  1. From your cell go straight and deal with any enemies in your path. You can use the Cloud Step spell to distract foes and slip past unnoticed.
  2. Stay on the edge of the area until you reach the Lower Pagoda Keeper’s Shrine. This is a good spot to save your progress.
  3. From the shrine, turn left then make a sharp right. Keep going until you hit a dead end.
  4. Instead of backtracking exit through the open door to your right. Move forward until you see a lantern next to a half-open gate.
  5. Enter through the gate and climb the stairs inside.

Reaching the Upper Levels

Now that you’re on the upper level it’s time to make your way to the boss:

  1. At the top of the stairs turn right. Take out any enemies giving you trouble.
  2. You’ll come across a wooden beam you need to cross. Be careful as there’s an archer nearby. Use Cloud Step again to slip past undetected.
  3. After crossing take a right then a left. Keep going until you spot an enemy near a slope.
  4. Run up the slope past another enemy to find the Upper Pagoda Keeper’s Shrine. Activate it to save your progress.
  5. From here go back inside and look down to your right. You’ll see an area filled with stone figurines.
  6. Carefully jump down into this area to trigger the boss fight with Captain Lotus-Vision.

Defeating Captain Lotus-Vision

Captain Lotus-Vision is a Yaoguai chief who specializes in ranged attacks. Here’s how to take it down:

  • Since the boss focuses on long-range attacks it’s vulnerable at close range. Try to stay near it as much as possible.
  • The boss will launch volleys of purple projectiles at you. Use your staff spin to block these attacks.
  • Captain Lotus-Vision can create laser beams that deal heavy damage and can’t be blocked. Keep an eye out for these and dodge them.
  • Don’t forget about your magical abilities. Spells like Immobilize can give you an edge in the fight.

With the right upgrades and tactics, you should be able to defeat Captain Lotus-Vision fairly quickly. Keep up the pressure and don’t give it time to recover.

Unlocking the Purple Seal Doors

Once you’ve defeated Captain Lotus-Vision you’ll receive several rewards including the crucial Spirit of Captain Lotus-Vision. This item acts as a master key removing all the purple seals from the doors in the Pagoda Realm.

With the seals gone you’re free to explore previously inaccessible areas. Here are some things to check out:

  • Look for chests containing valuable loot
  • Speak with NPCs who were locked away
  • Search for hidden areas that might contain useful items or story elements.
