Saint Dou City, inside the Imperial Palace.

As the king of a country, the luxury of the Holy Dou Emperor's palace can be said to represent the image of the entire empire to a certain extent - even if the Nine Treasure Liuli Sect is rich and powerful, the scale of its headquarters does not dare to be grander than the imperial palace, just because under the authority of the emperor, no one is allowed to exist beyond him.

In the same way, the only people who live in the palace are the emperor and his concubines, and of course this is an immutable law, and even if modern scholars deny the civilization of the old era, they must admit what a clever rule it is.

Unfortunately, this rule does not apply to Ivan, because he is a soul body, and a soul body does not need to care too much about details.

"Hmmmm, so many rare magical beasts, it's better to steal one another day. Ivan cast his gaze on the various rare magical beasts that were leisurely strolling among the landscapes and flowers below, and at the same time manipulated the mourning whip armor to leap over one wall after another, while knocking the patrolling soldiers unconscious one by one.

His movements did not make a sound, and he teleported around the corner of the wall at a angle that even the electronic cameras in the palace could not capture.

You must know that for this day, Ivan has been planning for three years, and during these three years, he has constantly compared the map of the palace and simulated the scene of the palace to practice this set of actions. Even his precious test subjects were cultivated through quick potions, and each test subject had no more than three months of growth time, and some guys who were judged to be defective in their growth had to be excluded.

Even if the plan to cause a riot in the royal auction a few days ago was unsuccessful, he didn't care too much, after all, the auction hall was full of strong players, and it was normal for his biochemical monsters to fail.

But this time the goal is different, it is an existence that can really allow him to plan for years, and its importance is far greater than that of those biochemical monsters.

After a while, Ivan came to a palace - Lingxiao Palace, where the owner was the most favored imperial concubine of the emperor, Concubine Yu Yuyan.

Of course, the mere fact that he was the emperor's favorite concubine did not interest Ivan - he was not an animal who could only think with his lower limbs.

Ivan stood in front of the palace and looked up - he suddenly wondered, is it really okay to do this, what if it fails?

He's not a good guy, at least he hasn't done anything earth-shattering since the time experiment, and it's not uncommon for him to hack into major websites in major countries to steal information and get into trouble with that iron lump from time to time.

But at least he hadn't killed anyone in the real sense of the word. He did build a lot of automated war machines to attack, but they fired empty rounds before chasing the Iron Pimple. There was only one person he really wanted to kill, but he didn't succeed in the end.

"Mr. Ivan, everything that achieves great things is not informal, not to mention that this society is a society in which people infringe on each other, and the upper ones eat the value of the people at the bottom, and this choice must be made for their own survival. Xue Xiaojing's voice sounded in his head, this time Ivan was not as excited or flustered as before, at this moment his spirit was all focused on this palace, and he was about to make the most important, wrong, and correct choice in his life.

After a moment of silence, Ivan kicked open the door of the palace, and at the same time gave an order to Xue Xiaojing: "Invade all the electronic devices of the palace, don't alarm anyone, monitor the area around the Lingxiao Hall within a radius of 100 meters, and once there are soldiers guarding and have the intention of entering, immediately mobilize the automatic armament of the palace, and fight for me for at least an hour." Ivan's voice was so stirring and high that it made one think that he was a general about to step into the field of warhorses, rather than a criminal of illegal invasion.

The gates of the palace were slammed open by brute force, and at the same time as the light shone into the gloomy palace, Ivan also rushed through the palace gates.

The situation in the palace was somewhat unexpected by Ivan, there were no palace maids in the hall, no delicacies, even gold and silver jewelry decorations were rare, several ordinary landscape paintings hung on the wall, decorated with wooden frames without any pattern carving, and a wooden tea table and leather sofa were placed on the right side of the hall, which was no different from an ordinary aristocratic family.

Even though the sun was shining in, Ivan still felt a little cold - the temperature of the air was extremely low, and the seats and tea sets in the palace were covered with a faint layer of frost. This is rare, and unlike the vast ice of the Emperor Scorpion's Ice Blue, the beast of the Ten Generations of Heavenly Apocalypse Gray Zhao, this low temperature made Ivan feel the cold from the depths of his heart, as if he was afraid of something terrible.

Fear?

How could he have such a thing as a mourning whip! That kind of thing, in Ivan's memory, had been erased from the time he wielded the plasma whip!

Ivan tensed his muscles and looked around carefully - in addition to the extremely low temperature, many of the royal furniture was covered in dust, and there were even a few cobwebs in the corners of the roof. Could it be that no one has been here for a long time? Ivan couldn't help but be suspicious in his heart, before making a plan of action, he had investigated the travel schedule of the Holy Dou Emperor in detail, almost every three or four days, he would come to the Lingxiao Palace to visit Concubine Xingyu, and he would always stay all night, which was completely different from the usual time to go to other palaces for two or three hours and then pat his ass and leave. With such frequent visits by the emperor, how could the palace be so simple, and there was dust?

"Gong Xian, scan this palace with a heat source scanner. Ivan said, believing that at such low temperatures, even an insect could be scanned by a heat source scanner.

Sure enough, Gong Xian soon presented the scanning results of the entire palace in front of Ivan's eyes.

In the simplified linear structure diagram, the first largest heat source is Ivan himself, located in the center of the palace, and at least thirty meters below the palace, a heat source that far exceeds Ivan immediately catches his eye.

"I said, I was hiding underground. Ivan sighed, and as the structure of the Lingxiao Palace unfolded before his eyes, he quickly discovered the wonder of this building.
