In the ancient times of the Douluo Continent, the Dragon Clan ruled the land. The ancestor of the Dragon Clan, the Dragon God, cultivated into a god with his extraordinary innate talent and ascended to the Divine Realm, directly gaining a divine position.
Because of the overwhelming power of the Dragon God, the Divine Realm Council sought to restrict him according to the rules of the Divine Realm. However, the Dragon God, with his proud nature, refused to submit.
Under the continuous pressure from the Divine Realm Council, the Dragon God allied with other divine beasts from the Divine Realm to start a war against the gods.
The war spread throughout the entire Divine Realm. The five great law enforcers of the Divine Realm Council—the God of Goodness, the God of Evil, the God of Asura, the God of Destruction, and the Goddess of Life—joined forces to battle the Dragon God.
"We have cultivated ourselves to such a level through our own strength, yet you gods, because of your different races, wish to oppress us. Today, we will overthrow the Divine Realm Council!" In front of the divine beast army, the Dragon God, draped in nine-colored dragon scales, his eyes glowing with nine-colored divine light, and his claws emitting a sharp cold gleam, roared in anger.
With a roar, the Dragon God led the divine beasts into the divine army. As an existence above a first-level god, the Dragon God, although not yet at the level of a God King, already possessed the battle power to fight against a God King.
He fought swiftly among the gods, his massive form not hindering his speed.
The five God Kings attacked together, with the powers of Life, Destruction, Killing, Goodness, and Evil striking the Dragon God fiercely.
Although the Dragon God's power was above that of a first-level god, it had not yet reached the God King level. Under the combined attacks of the five God Kings, the Dragon God was instantly gravely injured.
However, his charged attack still fired, a nine-colored beam of light piercing through the bodies of four elemental gods, instantly destroying their divine souls.
"Slash!" The God of Asura shouted, swinging the Asura Sword toward the Dragon God. A blood-red sword light shot out from the Asura Sword, appearing hundreds of meters away in an instant, a wave of blood light crashing toward the Dragon God.
Not far away, the first-level God of Emotions locked eyes with the Dragon God, and the overwhelming spiritual power caused the Dragon God to become momentarily dazed. It was this moment of confusion that caused him to lose the chance to dodge the blood-red sword light.
The Dragon God's body was cleaved in two, but his eyes still showed a crazed expression. His divine power surged, and his soul split apart by his own force.
In the next instant, the Golden Dragon King and the Silver Dragon King appeared before the gods. These were the Dragon God's forced split, using his immense power to turn into the Golden and Silver Dragon Kings.
The Silver Dragon King, upon opening her eyes, immediately used seven different elements, surrounding her.
Meanwhile, the Golden Dragon King, unnoticed by anyone, was struck by a white beam from the void, becoming dazed.
"I... I have traveled to another world? And become the Golden Dragon King?!" Gu Chen opened his eyes and found everything to be different. He thought incredulously.
In his past life, he had died after a teammate reported him for insulting them during a game. The player had tracked him down and killed him with a kitchen knife...
But now, unexpectedly, he had traveled to the body of the Golden Dragon King, a powerful being with an indestructible body!
Wait, where am I?
Gu Chen opened his eyes again, stunned.
"Woah! Is this the Dragon God's Battle? Then doesn't that mean I'm going to be destroyed just like in the original, leaving only my divine power to be taken by Tang Wulin?"
Ding!
"Dragon God Selection System has been bound!"
A beautiful female voice suddenly echoed in Gu Chen's mind, and he immediately became excited. "Is this the system that all transmigrators get? Dragon God Selection System, tell me what you can do!"
With the help of this system, Gu Chen thought that he might actually be able to escape the fate of the Golden Dragon King's soul being shattered and flee the Divine Realm!
Ding!
"This system is a selection system, system number 0413."
"The system has activated three functions:
Plot selection function
Mission selection function
Daily selection function The plot selection allows the host to choose the development direction and receive certain rewards for assistance.
The mission selection function will issue tasks when necessary. Completing the tasks will provide rich rewards, and the host can choose to refuse the task.
The daily selection function provides suggestions for the host's ongoing activities, without rewards, and the host can refuse the suggestions!"
Gu Chen's eyes lit up. This system was great! Unlike the disgusting systems from his past life's web novels that would punish you with death, this one allowed him to refuse tasks! It was highly flexible!
Ding!
"Detected that the host is currently in a critical situation. Plot selection is now available:
A. Fight to the death with the gods, both sides perish! Assist: Clone Technique (the clone can possess 50% of the host's power, and up to 50 clones can be created), Dragon God's Power Experience Card (10 hours).
B. Accept fate, wait to die obediently. Assist: Self-detonation effect strengthened by 1000 times.
C. Break through forcibly, and escape the Divine Realm with the Silver Dragon King. Assist: God King Experience Card (1 hour), Space-Time Turbulence Navigation Device (valid for 1 year)."
Gu Chen quickly scanned the options. He immediately skipped option A and guessed that the assist for option B would be to blow up and kill Tang Wulin, so he skipped that as well.
"I choose C!" Gu Chen silently thought.
Ding!
"Selection successful. God King Experience Card and Space-Time Turbulence Navigation Device have been added to the system's inventory."
"Use God King Experience Card!" Gu Chen silently chanted.
In the next moment, a warm energy exploded within Gu Chen's body, spreading divine power throughout him.
He clenched his Golden Dragon claws, and saw that Gu Yue Na, not far ahead, was being besieged by the remaining three elemental gods. Her scales were shattered, and blood was flowing freely, showing she had taken significant damage.
Golden Dragon Roar!
A natural divine skill from the Golden Dragon King's bloodline needed no thought from Gu Chen. With a thought, it was cast!
A golden soundwave passed by the Silver Dragon King, and in an instant, struck the three elemental gods. The three elemental gods, being only first-level gods, were no match for a God King-level divine skill.
The elemental gods all perished under Gu Chen's strike!
"Silver Dragon King, let's go!" Gu Chen roared, grabbing the Silver Dragon King's right arm with his claw and dragging her as they made their way toward the outer edges of the Divine Realm.
The Silver Dragon King looked at him in surprise, her purple eyes filled with confusion. She couldn't understand why the Gu Chen, who should have had similar strength to her, had powers even stronger than the Dragon God.
"This Golden Dragon King has God King-level strength, how is that possible?"
"The Dragon God hid his true strength!"
The five God Kings watched in shock as Gu Chen fled with the Silver Dragon King, stammering in disbelief.
At that moment, a blue figure flashed in front of them. Holding a trident, with sharp light in his eyes, he stood in their way.
This was Poseidon, the God of the Sea!
"Where do you think you're going?! Unlimited Tempest!" Poseidon shouted, swinging his trident. Circles of light shot toward Gu Chen.
"A mere first-level god dares to block me!" Gu Chen laughed instead of getting angry. He dodged and unleashed a powerful Golden Dragon tail swipe.
Poseidon was severely injured by the swipe, his body flying a thousand miles away, vomiting blood, and even his divine armor cracked!
Ignoring Poseidon, Gu Chen and the Silver Dragon King successfully reached the edge of the Divine Realm.
Bang! Bang!
Gu Chen slammed his claws down twice, and the power of a God King burst forth, creating several cracks in the Divine Realm's protective shield.
"Stay! Rakshasa Slasher!" Suddenly, a purple-green figure appeared behind Gu Chen. The Rakshasa God, with a triumphant smile, swung his Demon Scythe toward the Golden Dragon King's neck.
