I, the Five-Clawed Golden Dragon, am being kept by the state.

Li Chen was originally a corporate slave on Earth, but he unexpectedly transmigrated to the world of cultivation and became a golden dragon in the world of cultivation. When he was undergoing the tribulation of ascending to immortality, he was ambushed by the enemy and seriously injured. However, he was caught in the spacetime turbulence and fell back to his home planet Earth.The spiritual energy of Earth was depleted, making healing impossible. Fortunately, Qin Shi Huang unified the six kingdoms, generating dragon energy.Therefore, Li Chen made an agreement with Qin Shi Huang: Qin Shi Huang would use dragon energy to heal Li Chen's injuries, but Li Chen had to lend a helping hand.And so, China gained another guardian deity........More than two thousand years later, in modern times, due to repeated crises in China, Li Chen's dragon energy dissipated. To prevent his soul from being scattered, Li Chen abandoned his physical body and stored his dragon soul in a dragon-shaped necklace, where he slept for a hundred years.A century later, archaeologists brought out a dragon-shaped necklace from the mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang, but it unexpectedly awakened Li Chen.When the entire high-ranking officials of the Dragon Kingdom were shocked by this, Li Chen spoke lazily."My injuries have not yet healed and I need to rest."From then on, the Dragon Kingdom gained a national guardian beast, with an SSS+ rating.He found the ordinary residence too shabby, so the state renovated it into a state-of-the-art base for him.He felt that electric heating wasn't powerful enough, so he specially installed an experimental-grade energy reactor.Everyone assumed that they were the ones who provided generous support to this lazy dragon.Little did he know, Li Chen was silently watching the Chinese man who was busy with his work."Serve me diligently, mortals.""When the entire nation is filled with my followers, and the incense offerings and prayers are fully collected, then I will lead you into the era of cultivation... and the whole nation will ascend!"
