I wield power with my innate talents, and forge the Heavenly Court.

Under normal circumstances, the national fortune and the power of the national fortune totem of an ordinary country can no longer pose a threat to cultivators at the Celestial Realm.

However, there are exceptions to everything.

If one could truly make all the people of a country genuinely and strongly desire to kill them, it would be possible to disrupt the rules of heaven and earth and pose a fatal threat to them.

However, even the most powerful country would probably find it difficult to do so.

There are always some people who are dissatisfied with the country's various systems and practices, and feel that the grass is always greener on the other side.

With such people around, how can true unity of purpose be achieved?
However, it is clear that the Papal States have achieved this.

The reason is none other than that it is a religious country, and an extremely xenophobic one at that, rejecting all non-believers.

Within the Papal States, they were all fanatical believers in God.

Those who do not believe in God are not qualified to be citizens of the Papal States. They are either expelled, sent to the gallows, or burned at the stake.

This is why the Papal States were able to achieve this feat, as enough power to kill beings at the Celestial Realm was gathering.

Although it is believed that the golden dragon of national fortune in the sky, as well as the national fortune of the Celestial Empire, should be able to suppress the overwhelming sacred fire.

However, Shouxuzi still couldn't help but unleash his power.

A blue lotus blooms at his feet, firmly protecting him within. A burst of clear light emanates, engulfing and dissolving all alien forces.

Endless flames of fury surged forth, gradually melting away the flames amidst the shimmering light.

However, as soon as some of the raging holy flames were dissipated, even more surged forth, endless and inexhaustible, wave after wave, growing stronger and stronger.

Gradually, the clear light emanating from the blooming lotus began to fluctuate violently, with visible ripples spreading outwards, showing faint signs of collapse.

Upon seeing this, Miguel raised an eyebrow and exchanged glances with the group of high-ranking clergy.

However, they did not make a move directly. Instead, they were immersed in endless rage, brewing an even stronger sense of anger and killing intent.

Just as Shouxuzi frowned, preparing to once again urge for increased power.

The endless flames of wrath have already come into contact with the golden dragon of national destiny.

"Ang~!"

The next instant, the golden dragon of national destiny seemed to be impatient and let out a dragon roar, then suddenly flicked its tail.

"boom!"

Endless golden light burst forth, radiating for hundreds of miles in an instant, instantly melting away the endless raging holy flames.

In an instant, the entire Papal Kingdom was filled with golden light that illuminated the heavens and the earth, and there was no longer any holy light power.

"."

In that instant, everyone stared blankly at the golden dragon symbolizing the nation's destiny. The clamor abruptly ceased, and the anger was instantly extinguished as if doused with a bucket of ice water.

However, as fanatical believers in God, many of them were naturally willing to follow God to the same end.

"Oh God!"

"God!"

As the crowd murmured in serene silence, wisps of holy light emanated from their bodies, a burning of their souls and spirits.

Holy light surged and converged, seemingly wanting to pass through the golden dragon of national destiny and merge into the body of God.

In other words, they were offering themselves as a sacrifice, hoping to give God everything they had so that God would have the power to break free.

But at that very moment, the golden dragon that had swallowed God's destiny had completely digested the rules contained within it. In the next instant, the golden dragon suddenly spewed out a torrent of golden light, showering down endless golden rays.

However, it should be noted that the conquest of the Papal States was entirely the work of Shouxuzi alone.

As for the Pope and others
If they are naturalized by a country, they will naturally have corresponding merits and can receive blessings from the dragon.

Unfortunately, Shouxuzi recorded and reported his achievements in the form of territorial expansion and military exploits.

In this case, the pope and others from the conquered country would be lucky to escape being killed, let alone expect any rewards.

Therefore, the power of the dragon's blessing naturally all converged on Shouxuzi.

The endless golden light converged and transformed into a golden sphere, which suddenly entered Shouxuzi's brow.

The golden dragon phantom that was originally between his eyebrows instantly solidified several times, and a faint golden dragon phantom disappeared after circling around him once.

At the same time, a white sphere of light entered Shouxuzi's consciousness space, and a message entered his mind.

The authority of God.

Holy Word, Divine Word, Seven Days of Creation
Various abilities and supernatural powers surfaced in his mind one by one.

The national symbol of the Papal States is God.

They are indeed different; while possessing the characteristics of a national totem, they also possess certain divine qualities and have the divine authority belonging to the gods.

However, this divine authority is far too weak in comparison, having only fused with some insignificant power of rules.

For the national fortune dragon, it is like a chicken rib, tasteless to eat but a pity to throw away.

Therefore, after the Golden Dragon of National Fortune absorbed the Dragon Qi of National Fortune and integrated the mysteries of its rules, it bestowed this divine authority, which was formed from the fusion of spirituality and rules, upon Shouxuzi as a reward.

For the Golden Dragon of the Nation, this will essentially not increase any divine authority or power.

However, for Shouxuzi, it is a powerful force.

Moreover, it is extremely suitable for the current situation and suits his wishes perfectly.

With a thought, the divine authority that he had already controlled was cast into the Celestial Court space and merged into the body of the phantom of God in the center of Paradise Island.

"boom!"

With a deafening roar, the entire Paradise Island trembled slightly as endless pure holy light rapidly converged towards the phantom of God.

In just a moment, the phantom of God had completely solidified, and brilliant holy light shone around it, as if all the beauty in the world had been gathered together.

At the same time, a mysterious and special power lingered around God and gradually spread throughout the entire Paradise Island, and the phantom images of angels appeared.

They bowed down in unison toward the presence of God, and a mysterious power gathered upon God, evolving into an even stronger force.

"This is... the dragon's aura of national destiny? How could it be? It's not."

Shouxuzi thought that the dragon energy of the nation's fortune had been completely devoured by the golden dragon of the nation's fortune.

Unexpectedly, the divine authority still contained a portion of the national destiny's dragon energy, or rather, the aura of the national destiny's dragon energy.

This divine authority, after all, had been integrated with the national destiny and dragon energy for a very long time.

Therefore, even though the Golden Dragon of National Fortune has devoured it, it still retains some of the power of the dragon's energy.

Furthermore, due to the national destiny of the Golden Dragon, its power has become even stronger and more solidified.

It cannot compare to the power of the Celestial Empire's national fortune, but it surpasses the national fortune and dragon aura of other nations. (End of Chapter)
