The palace is located on the Dragon Head Plain to the north of Chang'an City, known as Daming Palace during the Tang Dynasty. It is the largest palace area in Chang'an City. The palace was built utilizing the natural terrain, making it a relatively independent fortress. The southern part of the palace complex is rectangular, while the northern part is trapezoidal, wider in the south and narrower in the north.
The entire palace area is divided into two parts: the Outer Court, primarily for court meetings, and the Inner Court, mainly for living and banquets.
Centered around Danfeng Gate, to the south lies the spacious Danfengmen Avenue, while to the north are Han Yuan Hall, Xuan Zheng Hall, Purple Palace, Penglai Palace, Hanliang Hall, and Xuanwu Hall, forming a north-south central axis. Along this central axis, other palace buildings have also been constructed, grand in scale and breathtaking.
The princess led Kairuot and his group through Wangxian Gate, crossing Wangxian Bridge, and passing through three palace gates: Zhaoxun Gate, Hanyao Gate, and Chongming Gate. They walked past numerous pavilions and palaces, navigating through winding corridors until they finally arrived at Purple Palace.
As they walked along, Li Girl was very curious and asked many questions: "Isn't it a waste of resources for the emperor to live in such a large place? Wouldn't he get lost? How many machines would it take to build such a grand architectural complex?"
Even though no one responded to her, Li Girl continued to talk to herself with her questions, appearing completely carefree.
The young princess rode at the front, looking sullen and not saying a word throughout. A child's worries are hard to hide; however, Kairuot's Sixth Sense could not discern what was troubling her or why the emperor was so eager to summon them. This left Kairuot feeling a sense of unease.
Moreover, Kairuot also noticed this strange phenomenon of his Sixth Sense failing... Could it be that the young princess truly was his daughter? Kairuot realized that his Sixth Sense only failed in front of his own relatives.
Upon reaching the entrance of Purple Palace, Li Girl, Bel Purewood, and Belt were stopped by soldiers outside. The emperor only allowed Kairuot to enter the hall while everyone else had to wait outside.
Kairuot calmly followed the young princess into Purple Palace. As soon as she saw the emperor, she hurriedly ran to his side and quietly stayed there. At that moment, Kairuot looked up and saw a Little Emperor sitting on the dragon throne in the main hall, who was not much older than the young princess. Next to him stood a rather fierce-looking middle-aged man. Many ministers were also standing on either side of the hall.
Kairuot exchanged glances with the emperor before stepping forward to pay his respects. Unexpectedly, the Little Emperor pointed at Kairuot and said, "Bold Monster! Surrender now or face death!"
Kairuot couldn't understand, so he had no idea what Little Emperor was pointing at and felt utterly confused. He said, "What are you saying? ... I don't understand." He gestured with his hands, trying hard to make Little Emperor realize that he did not comprehend the Earth language.
The little princess could understand, but she did not translate, her eyes filled with fear. The middle-aged man saw that Kairuot was standing right under the Vajra Sphere they had set up, and a sly smile appeared on his face.
Kairuot triggered the trap's switch; his feet were caught, and suddenly a semicircular Diamond Sphere fell rapidly from the top of the Purple Palace. Before Kairuot could react, he was already enclosed within the Diamond Sphere.
The middle-aged man exclaimed happily, "The Monster is trapped!"
Although Kairuot destroyed the clamps that had caught his legs, he was now encased in an egg-shaped Diamond Sphere. The upper half of the spherical cover was exposed above ground, while the lower half's base was also semicircular and buried underground. No matter how much Kairuot shouted from inside, those outside ignored him completely.
With no other choice, Kairuot focused his internal energy from the Cosmic Wave Energy to break open the Diamond Sphere. His powerful inner strength concentrated in his palms struck against the Vajra Sphere, making loud "bangs," but it just wouldn't budge. Kairuot did not know that this was a specially designed Diamond Sphere by Belche for him; the interlocking teeth between the upper and lower covers were tightly fitted together. It resembled a gigantic Metal Ball, and the Diamond Sphere was made from special materials that no tools on Earth could open. Naturally, Belche intended to trap Kairuot inside the Diamond Sphere, ensuring he would never escape—
Belche had never given up on finding a puppet on Earth. He had good vision and luck when he encountered the originally impoverished vagrant Zhu Wen, supporting him all the way to become a powerful minister in the Tang Dynasty.
Little Emperor Li Zhi held no real power; all political matters were decided by Zhu Wen. This time, setting up a trap for Kairuot Little Emperor was truly out of necessity; it was unfortunate that he had to listen to Zhu Wen. As for the little princess... she was indeed a replica of Kairuot's daughter—created by Belche using the Human Quantum Machine. The real daughter of Kairuot lived peacefully with her mother on Penglai Immortal Island, far removed from worldly conflicts.

Standing outside the door of the Purple Palace, waiting, Li Girl heard strange "bangs" coming from inside the hall. Ignoring the soldiers' attempts to stop her, she charged in, followed closely by Bel Purewood and Belt. The ministers saw someone with extraordinary martial skills burst in as if possessing divine power and scattered like birds and beasts, leaving only Little Emperor and the little princess in the hall.
Seeing a shining Metal Ball inside the hall with someone seemingly banging against it making "bangs," Li Girl pointed at Little Emperor and asked, "Where have you taken Kairuot?"
The little princess pointed at the Diamond Sphere, indicating its presence.
"Li Girl" shouted, "Just as I thought!" and began to channel her energy, attempting to split the "Metal Ball" with her palm, but it was in vain.
"Bel Purewood" also started to try, but the "Diamond Sphere" was too smooth and solid to break open. He became somewhat angry, ran outside the main hall, and lifted a giant cauldron that was placed in front of the hall. His action frightened all the soldiers who were guarding outside.
Holding the cauldron, "Bel Purewood" stepped forward toward the "Diamond Sphere" and smashed it down. The "Diamond Sphere" only produced a loud crashing sound and showed no effect; its surface didn't even have a scratch. Instead, "Kairuot," who was inside, felt uncomfortable from the shock. If it weren't for his powerful aura protecting him, he would have likely been severely injured.
"Bel Purewood" struck the cauldron against the sphere many times without any results, though he did manage to push the "Diamond Sphere" deeper into the ground.
At that moment, for some unknown reason, flames erupted inside the "Purple Palace." Before long, the entire hall was engulfed in a raging fire. "Belt" shouted, "Run! If we don't get out now, we'll be burned alive!"
However, "Bel Purewood" and "Li Girl" continued to circle around the sphere, seemingly trying to dig out the stuck "Diamond Sphere" to take it with them. "Belt" had no choice but to grab their arms and pull them outside while saying, "You two should relax; with such high martial arts skills from the immortals, I believe nothing will happen!"
As the fire grew larger, reluctantly, "Li Girl" and "Bel Purewood" had no choice but to follow "Belt" and evacuate...
The fire raged for several days and nights, turning the entire "Daming Palace" into ashes, which was heartbreaking. The "Daming Palace," with an 800-year history, disappeared from existence.
