I, The Dragon Overlord - Chapter 366

Chapter 366 – Dragonblight

The Sleeping Dragon Temple, as it was called, was the palace where dragons slept.

This Sleeping Dragon Temple covered an extremely wide area, even far beyond the so-called ‘Miracle of the World’. If such a huge palace was built on the main continent, humans and other races would need more than thousands of years and still to finish it, but a god only needed a mere thought.

The innermost core of Sleeping Dragon Temple was the place where Louie’s body slept and was aptly named the ‘Sanctuary of Order’. Its name symbolized Louie’s goal of becoming the Serpent of Order and possessing a permanent stake in the world of San Soliel.

Naturally, he wouldn’t ever explain the meaning behind the temple’s name to other gods. At least not until he achieved his goals.

The ‘Sanctuary of Order’ would be the only area closed off to everyone. No matter if they were subordinate gods or friends. Even his own daughter was forbidden from taking a single step. From the establishment of this divine kingdom to its destruction, only Louie would enjoy the loneliness of eternity inside it.

Louie’s body appeared inside the ‘Sanctuary of Order’. He morphed back into his dark golden dragon form with five heads. Then, Louie peacefully slept inside it.

The second thing gods did after ascending was to sleep and create their incarnations.

It would take some time to create an incarnation. It’s also the same for gods with high-tier divine power. However, Louie possessed the divine authority of time. As long as he was willing, he could compress the time needed in exchange for divine power.

This way of creating an incarnation would cost double the amount of divine power.

For normal gods, this wasn’t worth it. Mortals would say that time is precious, but for the gods, time was something that was wasted. The preciousness of divine power was greater than time, but Louie was rich in divine power, especially with the faith from Earth. Louie did not dare use this faith to fight against enemies, but for this kind of auxiliary purpose that no one could see, then he could waste as much as he wanted.

The year was compressed into just a few hours, and when Louie’s body fell into a deep sleep, the ‘dream incarnation’ was already completed by Louie.

Louie’s dream incarnation had the typical appearance of an elf, handsome to the point of demonic. Other than his hair, his pupils and accessories were all emerald green.

If he turned back into his dragon form, he would become an emerald green dragon, which was created by Louie in the image of the dragon aspects.

The divine incarnation was the most sacred thing. From this moment on, Louie would use his incarnation to move. The situations that could make his true body move were few.

“Incarnations are purely composed of divine power and cannot receive faith. This incarnation will disappear after the divine power was used up, but it does not matter if it dies. As long as my true body is still there and I have enough divine power, then I can make a new one.”

With Louie’s godhood level, he could create three incarnations, but he did not do so because he did not need that many. He would first conserve divine power.

“The divine power of time is not suitable for gathering faith. If used alone, it can only reach the low-tier divine power at most.”

As a modern person, Louie certainly understood the greatness and the mystery of time. Even the gods knew that the divine authority of time was an extremely powerful ability, but time had no great use to mortals, making it hard to gather faith in it.

People believe in the great earth in order to get a good harvest. People believe in justice and light because people have goodness in them. People fear the seas because the storms would put the lives of fishermen at risk. People fear death and worship darkness because it is closely related to people’s lives.

However, time was different. No one was willing to believe in time. Would believing in it give you more time?

That’s why Louie personally established Dragon City, the Dragon God Church, and made it the state religion. Although the divine authority of dragons was powerful and attracted the worship of dragons, it was difficult to make non-draconic races believe in it.

“However, time was not something to be believed in. It was extremely useful in combat and had an unusual ability to assist in combat.”

Towards his complete mastery, Louie naturally was very satisfied. The divine authority’s true ability was to be used as an auxiliary ability in the battle against the gods. For example, Louie could compress time to directly and instantly create an incarnation that other gods could not do.

Generally, divine authorities that could attract faith were different from divine authorities that could be used in battle.

For example, the Goddess of Love and Beauty could benefit from her divine authority and turn into a powerful god, but in terms of combat, the divine authority of love was useless. Love was not something that could be used in battle, but every living creature possessed love. Even a one-night stand contained love. So naturally, people also believed in the Goddess of Love.

In the beginning, Louie quite wanted to believe in this god. He felt that his three views were very consistent with the Goddess of Love.

But a powerful god was still a powerful god. Even if the Goddess of Love and Beauty was weak in combat, she still possessed dominance when fighting against mid-tier gods. Other powerful gods also could not do anything to her. Otherwise, Selune, who was being chased by Shae, would not have sought sanctuary with her.

The best way a god combined its divine authority was to have faith-based divine authority and a number of combat divine authorities.

After completing the placement of the true body and creating an incarnation, Louie began to weave the rules of his divine kingdom to completely make this place his own domain.

In his own domain, Louie possessed supreme authority. In this domain, even legendary rank mages would not be able to cast spells. He also prohibited flight, cut off magic connections, and changed the nature of the elements. Even the gods would be suppressed if they came here.

The rules of the divine kingdom were made to enhance the owner’s combat power and decrease that of enemies. It was because of these rules that powerful gods would have a difficult time dealing with mid-tier gods unless there was a mass attack.

After weaving the rules of the divine kingdom, Louie’s true body was guaranteed to be safe. There would be no gods that are alive at the moment who could break through his divine kingdom.

Naturally, the main power of the defense was the Sleeping Dragon Temple. The other parts were relatively weaker and could not be completed overnight. Louie would have to work tirelessly for the next million years to strictly impose the rules to his entire divine kingdom.

After securing his safety, Louie relaxed a lot. Next, he could create an assembly hall. This assembly hall was made of gold, silver, and other metals. Louie named this the ‘Assembly Hall of the Gods’, which would serve as a meeting place for the gods in his divine system in the future.

Subsequently, Louie constructed the interior of the temples and filled it with tens of thousands of corridors, rooms, pavilions, etc. These places would be the places where those who contributed the most to their faith would rest. This was also the gift of glory Louie would give to his believers who contributed greatly. They will live at the feet of God and share a large hall with their od!

The Sleeping Dragon Temple was not so much a temple but closer to a sacred city.

Then, Louie built another temple and named it ‘Dragon’s Soul’ which would be an open area where any powerful people, travelers, and even gods from other realms could visit and tour.

“Well, now that the most important aspect of the divine kingdom is completed, I can fully bring out its effectiveness.”

Louie stood high in the air and observed the magnificence and sacredness of his temple. Its golden and glorious luster above a towering green mountain up in the heavens made him reveal a heartfelt smile of joy.

He was already an immortal true god!

After suppressing the joy and excitement in his heart, Louie gazed at the huge divine kingdom of a million square kilometers. After a moment of contemplation, he started altering the place once more. As if playing a country simulation game, he began to change the ecological environment and terrain.

In the north, Louie constructed an endless cold plain with snow-capped mountains. In the middle of the continent were hills, mountains, forests, and lakes. In the south were vast grasslands and swamps. In the east was a big sea and in the west were volcanoes and deserts.

Louie knew that his followers were of various races and there would even be dragons of all kinds in the future.

So Louie needed to make the environment of his divine kingdom very complex. If this was the Goddess of Morning’s divine kingdom, then the kingdom had to be sacred and magnificent that uphold all that was good, but Louie needed diversity as the Dragon God.

Different dragon species liked to live in different kinds of environments. There were dragons that like to live in snowy mountains, dragons that like to live in swamps, dragons that like barren deserts, dragons that like the smell of sulfur, and various others. Louie had considered this and provided different dragons with an environment of their liking.

“There is everything here. My believers can live wherever they want. The only thing they need to do is face the center of this realm and worship me.”

Louie was in high spirits as he laughed loudly in this magnificent and vast divine kingdom.

Then, with a solemn look on his face, he began to mobilize his divine power and let his divine kingdom rise. The miniature realm broke through the etheric layers between realms and moved to one of the upper realms – the Arborea Realm!

His divine kingdom, which would merge with the Arborea Realm would become a part of this layer.

“And your name will be Dragonblight!”

Louie named his divine kingdom and from today onwards, it would become the only sanctuary for the dragons!
