I, The Dragon Overlord

A divine kingdom was an important asset to any god. It could be termed their final insurance.

It was a fortress filled with various rules and principles that supported the gods. It even had a huge suppressive force against invading foreign gods. The closer one was to the core of the divine kingdom, the stronger the suppressive force was, thus protecting the gods from harm.

Take for instance Shae’s divine kingdom in the Shadow Realm. If it was in its complete state, then demigods like Louie would have long since died the moment they entered it. Even a weak god entering Shae’s divine kingdom at its peak state would perish.

If this miniature realm was Louie’s divine kingdom, then he could stop the Kobold God with very little divine power, but unfortunately, it wasn’t. Moreover, it would take a long time for a god to build a divine kingdom and perfect the rules in it. In order to block the Kobold God from escaping, Louie could only consume divine power and use the domain of dreams to restrict him.

‘But this is not a long term solution at all. Restricting a god by wasting divine power was a foolish act that would make people laugh.’

Louie calculated his divine power. The divine power that came from the faith of Earth had been consumed during his ascension, but there was a lot left over due to his role play as Christ.

‘But I can’t just randomly use faith from Earth. It’s very likely that the Intelligent Brain or other gods would catch on. I need to build high walls and accumulate them widely. Then I can slowly claim king and strike once I am certain that I can deal with all problems.’

‘Locking Kulthumak here is a waste of divine power. It’s a better idea to just kill him. Even if he isn’t a new god and has enough experience in ascending, he should still have used up a significant amount of divine power in ascending. Now, he shouldn’t have much divine power, so now is the best time to kill him!’

Many thoughts flashed through Louie’s mind. His pupils flickered and let out a winning smile at the Kobold God, “Your Highness Kulthumak, since you have come to my territory, then please do not leave! To invade a dragon’s territory is an act of seeking death!”

— Divine Skill - Heavenly Possession!

This skill wasn’t used to summon some god to descend on himself, but for Louie, the god, to descend on others.

A god could send down his power to mortals temporarily, and the amount a mortal could bear depended on their constitution. Normally, no matter how strong a mortal was, they would not be able to bear for a long time, but Louie had the best vessel for his power, and that was his daughter with the Silver Moon Goddess, Alexia!

With Louie's bloodline and the same divinity as him, there was no better vessel for Louie and Selune to descend upon.

The gods hardly ever used their true bodies and only acted with incarnations, but now that the gods had just ascended, no god had enough time to create an incarnation. On the other hand, Louie could use this divine skill to temporarily turn his daughter into his own incarnation.

Louie instantly withdrew his domain of dreams to prevent divine power from being wasted. Following the divine skill’s activation, Alexia temporarily became his incarnation.

The incarnation of god had half the power of the real body, which meant that Louie, who was at godhood level 4, had an incarnation with godhood level 2. As a result, Alexia had a virtual level 2 godhood, which was enough for Louie.

Alexia's body shook as she felt an unmatched abundance of power bursting from nowhere. She felt a near-omnipotence and strong vitality surging within her.

Alexia felt so blessed that she did not put up any resistance and directly let Louie control her body. In an instant, Alexia's aura changed dramatically, from a demigod to a true god incarnate. Her movements, expression, and speech also changed dramatically because it was Louie who was now controlling her body.

At this moment, Alexia’s senses turned mystical, her soul and consciousness seemed to be watching her body in action from a third person’s point of view. She could also sense that warm consciousness and breath wrapping to protect her, which was precisely Louie’s will and divine power.

After Louie possessed Alexia, he quickly mastered how to move her body in just a moment. Even if the incarnate was female and just a baby dragon and even if the physiques were completely different, mastering a mortal body only took a moment for the gods.

At the same time, Louie’s real body had used a lance to keep Kulthumak’s body in place, preventing him from escaping.

The lance was not an ordinary object but made from Louie’s own tail. This was essentially equivalent to divine equipment. For gods with powerful bodies like dragons, common practice would be to turn parts of their bodies into weapons for use in humanoid form. Compared to forged weapons, a dragon’s natural body was more useful.

This lance did not have any additional properties, but as part of the Dragon God’s body, it was indestructible. Louie’s lance and Kulthumak’s spear danced and collided. The head-on collision between the two gods caused a storm of divine power, sweeping everything around.

At first contact, Louie immediately understood that the Kobold God in front of him was a warrior. His skill with the spear was seamless, and he seemed to have a lot of combat experience, but even if Louie’s skills were inferior to Kulthumak, he soon pushed back the Kobold God into a disadvantage. Even if Louie’s skills were inferior, he was still a dragon!

Even after ascending, there were still racial differences between the gods, but because gods mainly fought with divine power and divine domains, racial differences were not as visible most of the time, but when gods did not have enough divine power to fight, that would quickly change. Most likely, only the God of War could contend against Louie in close combat.

After several exchanges, Kulthumak knew that he was not a match for the foe before him. He was so intent on escaping that when he saw Alexia temporarily becoming Louie’s incarnation, he came to a sudden realization.

“God Louie, you have planned all this!”

Kulthumak was horrified. How could he not see through Louie’s plot? It was no wonder why Louie brought his daughter to watch his ascension and even purposefully learned the divine skill - Heavenly Possession. Louie was already aware that he was coveting and snooping around, so he had prepared in advance.

“When you gaze into the Abyss, the Abyss gazes back at you. When you plotted to assassinate me, you brought your own downfall.”

‘Alexia’ spoke with ‘her’ voice. Although it was still pleasant to hear, its tone and speech were exactly the same as Louie's.

Louie did not dare use Alexia’s body to enter close combat. She was only a fledgling dragon, making it easy to injure her. Louie waved Alexia’s hand, giving life to everything. The wind, the clouds, the grass, everything around seemed to have been given intelligence and life. In these ‘creatures’ that seemed to gain life, they began to close in on Kulthumak without end.

The Kobold God was furious and panic flashed on his face. He felt that his spear had become heavy and hard to wield. The wind entangled his hands so that he could not exert any power. If this was an ordinary wind, it would not have been able to shake a god’s body, but this wind contained the domain of life, and the only way to resist was to use divine power to target it.

But using pure divine power to confront this was the same as seeking death. If Louie only had to pay with 1 point of power to use his divine domain, then Kulthumak would need to pay 3 or even 5 units of power to confront it.

Moreover, Kulthumak had just ascended, so he did not have much divine power left. He was already close to exhaustion, but Louie still had enough power to maintain the Heavenly Possession. Facing Louie and his incarnation, Kulthumak could not find any possibility of victory.

“Why do you still have so much divine power left!”

The Kobold God let out a shrill cry of anger. He roared with brutality, but it contained a hint of fear.

No creature was more afraid of death than gods. If all creatures in the world were arranged in a tier-list of those who feared death, the gods would be number one. This was because they were powerful and immortal, so they were more afraid of their fall!

“God Louie, do you really want to do this to me?”

“Cut the crap!”

Louie’s incarnation continued to pour out divine power to create more life. At this time, Louie did not care how much divine power he used. His only goal now was to kill Kulthumak.

“Ahhhh—”

Kulthumak let out a painful scream. With the cooperation of his incarnation, Louie stabbed the lance in his hand into Kulthumak’s abdomen, causing divine blood to pour out.

Gods had no weak point. Even if they were stabbed through the heart or the head, they would not die easily unless their divine power ran out. If their incarnations were injured, then it was only the consumption of divine power and did not affect the gods. However, Kulthumak was almost out of divine power and in his real body. If he died here, then he would definitely fall.

“Your Highness Kulthumak, please fall here today. My Lord and I will make good use of your legacy.”

A serene female voice suddenly sounded, accompanied by the appearance of a delicate female body that was as black as the night. Kulthumak stared at her with wide eyes and let out a harsh cry, “Bitch, it’s you!”

At this time, Kulthumark could no longer maintain the poise of a god. He was like the gods that went mad in those ancient epochs. His sanity became filled with fear and madness.

He knew after seeing Shae that he was really going to fall here today.
