Heavenly Ranking

Chapter 341 Infiltration
With Ji Fuyou deciding to personally travel to the Black Gold Empire, Fang Qiyun and the others quickly sprang into action.

Although Lin Lun had recently acted recklessly in the Great Shang Federation, even killing many members of the Heavenly Ranking, but...

His target was only those on the Heavenly Ranking; he did not actively confront the Supreme Council, including any of the second-level public officials.

Since only ordinary people died, the Shang Dynasty would not mobilize its army or launch missiles that would have a significant international impact to intercept and kill Lin Lun.

Different types of floating organisms can be observed in different seasons.

Ji Fuyou's goal is to completely plunder the Black Gold Empire's royal treasury.

They even listed the sixteenth prince, Lin Lun, whose status was becoming increasingly noble and who was vaguely considered the number one person below the emperor of the Black Gold Empire, as a target for assassination.

what does this mean?
This means he intends to kill the nine council chairmen of the Great Shang Federation.

Moreover, besides the First Speaker Leo, they are the most influential Third and Fourth Speakers.

Under these circumstances, they naturally had to be prepared for the Black Gold Empire to take a desperate gamble.

As Ji Fuyou headed towards Dimo ​​City, the capital of the Black Gold Empire, all the elite troops under the Foreign Support Department were mobilized.

The entire Federation entered a state of outward relaxation but inward tension, with all radars, satellites, and reconnaissance equipment closely monitoring the Black Gold Empire's every move.

The spies lurking within the Black Gold Empire were also activated one after another.

As a result, after Ji Fuyou arrived in Dimo ​​City, he was assisted by dedicated personnel throughout his journey and was taken directly to the hotel closest to the palace.

……

"Chief."

At this moment, the person connecting with Ji Fuyou was merely a sub-advanced mental energy user.

He was unfolding a document: "The Black Gold Empire is different from other countries. The imperial system has prevailed on this land for a thousand years. Even with the arrival of the new era, it has not been able to shake their imperial regime. Under this ideology, the guards in the palace are all loyal without exception. Once your actions are discovered, you will inevitably be besieged and killed by the enemy."

Ji Fuyou nodded: "Where's the map of Yuanhu?"

"here."

The deputy senior psychic quickly unfolded the map: "Due to the deep-rooted imperial system, the imperial palace occupies a vast area, exceeding fourteen square kilometers. Yuan Lake is the resting place for the noble members of the royal family. Although it is not the main part of the imperial palace, because it is inhabited by the most prestigious members of the royal family, its defenses are no less than those of the imperial palace..."

Ji Fuyou looked at the map.

Yuanhu Lake has a diameter of nearly three square kilometers, and the palace that stores the royal treasures is located on a small island with an area of ​​about 300,000 square meters in the middle of the lake.

This unique landform makes Yuanhu Lake a natural moat.

"There are constant patrols on the surface of Yuan Lake, and numerous devices have been installed underneath to prevent infiltration, making it extremely difficult to enter Yuan Lake..."

"The specific structure of Yuanhu is sufficient."

As Ji Fuyou spoke, he asked again, "Is Lin Lun's location confirmed?"

“Lin Lun does not usually live in the palace, and he rarely even shows his face in Dimo ​​City.”

The senior mental ability user said in a deep voice, "In fact, although Lin Lun is a member of the royal family, his relationship with the royal family is not harmonious. All his achievements are due to his own efforts. Before he became a Martial Saint, he committed a serious crime and was almost sentenced to death by the royal family!"

"So, you don't have any information about his whereabouts?"

Ji Fuyou frowned slightly.

"Based on all the information we have, if the leader really does fight the Royal Martial Saint, there is a good chance that Lin Lun will stand by and do nothing."

The Spiritual Ability Master concluded by adding, "Of course, it's also possible that he has a strong sense of the bigger picture and has joined forces with the Royal Martial Saint to target you, Chief, but that's only if he's in Dimo ​​City..."

Ji Fuyou glanced at another document.

The Eight Great Martial Saints of the Royal Family!

The Black Gold Empire has ten publicly known Martial Saints!
Of these ten people, eight belonged to the royal family or were recruited by the royal family. The other two also expressed their loyalty to the royal family, but because they were not trusted, they were sent to various places to guard forbidden areas and rarely returned to Dimo ​​City.

Even among the eight martial saints belonging to the royal family, only five or six stayed in the capital for extended periods.

The intelligence agencies were unable to provide accurate figures, whether it was five or six.

However, this number was roughly in line with Ji Fuyou's expectations.

After reviewing the information, these people also helped him prepare an identity.

Captain of the Black Gold Empire's Imperial Palace Guard.

After briefly glancing at the captain's identity, Ji Fuyou quickly made up his mind.

He then confirmed the retreat route with these people, and after his team members disguised him, they set off directly for the palace.

Thanks to their superb disguise skills, their journey into the palace was incredibly smooth.

He passed through all the checkpoints, sentry posts, and gates with ease.

They soon arrived outside Yuanhu Lake.

There is a bridge leading to Yuanhu Lake.

The bridge is nearly one kilometer long and has undergone numerous verifications.

But after observing for a moment, Ji Fuyou got into a car directly.

The person in the carriage was clearly a person of high status in the Yuanhu Palace.

Its spirit value also exceeded 20!
Under the influence of Ji Fuyou's mental state, he directly regarded him as a trustworthy and close person, allowing him to get into the car and enter the island in the center of Yuanhu Lake.

Upon arriving on the island, Ji Fuyou recalled the layout of Yuanhu Lake and headed towards a house to the right of the central palace.

As he opened the door, an old man with a physique at the master level and a mental strength at the 22nd level appeared before him.

This is the fourth uncle of the Black Gold Empire Emperor.

Despite his lack of ability, he possessed a prestigious status and was bestowed the title of Prince Rong.

Upon seeing Ji Fuyou enter, Prince Rong was taken aback and instinctively stammered, "You are...?"

However, as Ji Fuyou's spirit dissipated, a piece of information directly filled his mind, transforming into a memory that seemed to have existed for a long time.

In his memory, this was a close friend he had known for decades, who now sincerely wanted to trade a treasure with him.

In an instant, the surprise in Prince Rong's eyes quickly turned into a smile: "Brother Ji has arrived? Come, come, please come inside and have a seat." "No rush, let's finish the important matters first."

Ji Fuyou Road.

"Yes, yes, getting things done is the priority."

Prince Rong responded with a smile: "Brother Ji, you've made the right choice in choosing to trade with us. Our Black Gold Empire's royal collection is vast; it's no exaggeration to say we're the richest family in the world. We can definitely find a treasure that will satisfy you."

As he spoke, he led Ji Fuyou straight to the treasure vault.

Since the island is almost entirely inhabited by members of the Black Gold Royal Family, and there are numerous guards and checks outside the island, the other people on the island could never have imagined that someone could enter the island so easily.

Furthermore, with Prince Rong accompanying him throughout the journey, Ji Fuyou was hardly questioned at all.

Even a martial saint who resides on this island is leisurely fishing.

It's unimaginable that someone has already infiltrated.

The two arrived at a palace.

The palace was indeed heavily guarded.

Upon seeing Prince Rong arrive, four people came forward to greet him. One of them, a master-level martial artist in his thirties, asked with a puzzled look, "Fourth Grand Uncle, are you going to enter the clan's archives? Do you have the clan leader's warrant?"

Before Prince Rong could speak, Ji Fuyou said with a smile, "Haven't the warrants already been issued to you?"

The master-level martial artist was taken aback at first, but then seemed to remember something. Just ten minutes ago, he seemed to have indeed received the verification procedure.

"Sorry, sorry, I didn't sleep well last night and forgot. I'll open the door for you right away."

The master martial artist spoke and quickly helped by performing fingerprint and iris verification in an elevator before opening it.

The other guards, seeing this, didn't say anything.

Ji Fuyou and Prince Rong took the elevator and quickly descended.

It went in dozens of meters.

As the elevator door opens.

Several more people turned their gaze in that direction.

Among them was a spiritual master who broke through mental shackles.

"Fourth uncle?"

The spiritual master looked at the stranger beside Prince Rong and suddenly stood up: "What's going on?"

Who is this spiritual master?
The entire Federation has yet to gather twenty people.

The Black Gold Empire is just as bad.

Such a figure, however, left one person behind in the ancestral temple to personally guard it, along with the martial saint on the island...

In theory, it is foolproof.

Unfortunately, he encountered the number one Red Star...

He was, at least outwardly, the first spiritual saint.

Before his question could be answered, Ji Fuyou spoke up: "Prince Yu, have you forgotten? I submitted a priceless treasure, and His Majesty has granted me permission to choose a treasure from the Imperial Treasury as well?"

As he spoke, his spirits were already high.

The spiritual master also seemed to remember something.

"They handed over a priceless treasure?"

But he instinctively felt something was wrong, and a hint of struggle lingered in his voice: "Even if I hand over the treasure, His Majesty would at most order me to retrieve it. How could he possibly allow outsiders to come to the ancestral treasury?"

“There is indeed such a rule, but aren’t we all on the same side? Besides, His Majesty said that you will accompany me throughout the entire process of retrieving the treasure.”

Ji Fuyou spoke again.

The spiritual master seemed to have recalled a piece of information.

this……

He was the consort of the eighteenth princess.

He could be considered half a member of the royal family.

His Majesty held him in high regard, which is why he was granted the honor of being included in the Imperial Archives.

Having him accompany them throughout the entire process can also be considered a form of surveillance.

Having figured out the cause and effect, Prince Yu still felt that something was wrong, but since he couldn't figure out where the problem lay in the short term, he had no choice but to agree: "Alright then."

He secretly warned himself to stay alert and follow Ji Fuyou throughout the entire process, so as not to lose Zongzang.

As he gave the order, the Zongzang Gate, located nearly 100 meters underground, slowly opened.

Ji Fuyou, Prince Rong, and Prince Yu immediately entered.

The remaining few remained on guard.

only……

Not long after entering the Zongzang, the gemstone worn by Prince Yu began to shine brightly.

Under the impact of this clear light, he felt increasingly uneasy: "Even if he is the imperial son-in-law, His Majesty would not allow him to enter the imperial archives. Even if he did, he would not allow Prince Rong to accompany him. At the very least, the Martial Saint would have to accompany him to ensure everything goes smoothly..."

At this point in his thoughts, a flash of insight seemed to strike him, and he struggled free from Ji Fuyou's mental interference: "No, something's wrong..."

"call out!"

The next moment, a burst of energy shot out, passing through his body and directly shattering the brain of this mental master.

Ji Fuyou withdrew his hand.

"you know too much."
