Chapter 1 – The Possession That Heaven Missed
The moment Son Goku fell asleep beneath Earth's quiet stars, his soul loosened.
That was all Zhou Fan needed.
He descended like a blade.
Not violently—inevitably.
Goku's consciousness surged to resist, but Zhou Fan's will was ancient, layered with slaughtered sects, broken heavens, and crushed destinies.
"Relax," Zhou Fan said coldly.
"I am not here to borrow your body. I am here to rule it."
Goku struggled, confused but not afraid.
"You're… strong. But this is my body."
Zhou Fan laughed softly.
"Bodies belong to those who can keep them."
With a single thought, Zhou Fan sealed Goku's soul, not destroying it—binding it deep within the Sea of Consciousness. Goku remained awake, watching.
A king forced to witness another sit upon his throne.
Zhou Fan stood up, stretching unfamiliar muscles.
This body responded perfectly.
Not cultivation-born… but heaven-crafted.
He smiled.
I will refine gods with this flesh.
