Transmigrating to another world, starting as a mountain god

After leaving Anshan again, Li Yuan changed direction.

He crossed the vast Gobi Desert and drifted southwards towards the Anshan region.

Once you leave the Gobi Desert, forests gradually become more abundant.

With towering mountains, breathtaking gorges and precipitous waterfalls, it boasts a wide variety of beautiful scenery.

Li Yuan realized from his trip to Qian Kingdom that by traveling more, he might be able to obtain many things that Anshan did not have.

Since mortals don't have any, they can't extort... cough cough, ask them for... cough cough, make some kind of deal?

The story of the mountain god of Huanshan gave him inspiration.

Li Yuan's idea was simple: Anshan only had basic funds, which were insufficient for development, so he would go and work for other mountain gods!

Work for others and then receive high wages!

What? You won't give me a chance to work and earn money?

Then I, the Mountain God of Anshan, will not stand for it! I'm staying here and not leaving!

Since you all see me as a troublemaker, then I'll take advantage of that and do something good!

Only when there are more good things can I focus on developing my farming plan in Anshan!

Li Yuan was thinking about his grand plans for the future.

This other world is somewhat similar to Earth. Li Yuan's adventures led him to a place called Liangshan.

There really is a vast expanse of water near Liangshan.

When Li Yuan paid his respects to the mountain god of Liangshan, he kept looking into the mountain god's temple.

"Are you sure you don't have 108 Liangshan heroes here?"

The mountain god of Liangshan turned pale:

"You've asked three times already! No, no!"

"I am a mountain god, my true form is a vine in the mountains, I prefer female vines and dislike male homosexuality in the human world!"

The sprightly old man grabbed Li Yuan by the collar, gritting his teeth.

Li Yuan scratched his head: "Okay, but there really isn't Black Whirlwind Li Kui or Timely Rain Song here..."

Bang!

The mountain god of Liangshan couldn't help but tap Li Yuan on the head.

Li Yuan's eyes widened: "What do you mean? You want to fight?"

"Let me tell you, you're bullying the new god! I'll sue you!"

The old god of Liangshan's face twisted in a grimace: "I've said it before, I dislike male homosexuality among mortals!"

"Pshaw, I mean I dislike all male homosexuality!"

"The 108 heroes you mentioned cannot be hidden in the mountain god's temple!"

"If you keep nagging about this, I'll get angry!"

Seeing the old man's flushed face, Li Yuan scratched his head and muttered to himself:

"If it weren't for the fact that your incense offerings are more numerous than mine, I would have had to pay back this time..."

The situation was beyond human control; the power of the Liangshan Mountain God far surpassed that of Li Yuan.

Fortunately, this old fellow wasn't as hostile towards Li Yuan as that old man Huan Shan was.

After the commotion, the mountain god of Liangshan invited Li Yuan to talk in the bamboo forest in the mountains and also understood the purpose of Li Yuan's 'travel' to his territory.

He glared at him, his face full of disdain: "So, you're here to steal my stuff?"

Li Yuan scratched his head shyly: "You can't say that. I'm just doing this job, and when you work, you have to get paid..."

"If you help me with the work, I'll give you a thousand taels of silver," the Liangshan Mountain God sneered.

Li Yuan's expression changed, and he grabbed Liangshan Mountain God's hand: "Old Deng, what you said is not right."

"I am a mountain god, what do I need worldly money for?"

"I want spirit seedlings, spirit stones and jade! I want celestial treasures, I want airplanes, I want televisions, I want CD players... Don't be too greedy!"

Li Yuan started singing as he spoke.

Liangshan Mountain God: Nervousness.

"What do you mean by this 'old Deng'?" The Liangshan Mountain God, not wanting to pay attention to the ailing boy, asked curiously about this 'new word'.

Li Yuan stroked his chin: "Hmm..."

"Though old, he is still vigorous; his ambition reaches the heavens."

Hence the name Lao Deng.

The mountain god of Liangshan's eyes lit up slightly: "I didn't expect you to have some culture, lad!"

"That's right, I'm the Old Deng you're talking about!"

"I, the mountain god of Liangshan, am old but steadfast, and my ambition is to ascend to heaven!"

"One day, I too will become a high-ranking immortal residing in the celestial realm!"

The mountain god of Liangshan stood with his hands behind his back, his face resolute beneath his pale beard and hair.

Li Yuan's lips twitched almost imperceptibly.

"Great!" he clapped. "I'm voting for this old-school action anime!"

The mountain god of Liangshan glanced at him and snorted, "If you could talk less nonsense, I would quite appreciate it!"

"The term 'Lao Deng' that you used is not only novel, but it also perfectly encapsulates my lofty aspirations!"

Li Yuan didn't know what to say, so he pretended to be amazed and gave a thumbs-up repeatedly.

The mountain god of Liangshan was very pleased:

"Since you respect me so much, I am willing to give you a chance."

Li Yuan's body trembled: "I want them all!"

The mountain god of Liangshan blinked: "I haven't said anything yet!"

Li Yuan waved his hand dismissively: "No matter what kind of spiritual object it is, I want them all!"

"So poor?" the Liangshan Mountain God asked in surprise.

"They really are that poor!"

Li Yuan gave a cold laugh.

His poverty was beyond the imagination of these mountain gods!

As the saying goes, poverty limits my imagination.

These mountain gods from another world were ultimately limited in their thinking by their wealth!

The mountain god of Liangshan remained silent for a long time.

"We all know that the good fortune you received when you were conferred your divine title was swallowed up after that commotion at the Grand Assembly of Immortals, but there's no need to be so desperate..."

This time it was Li Yuan's turn to grit his teeth:

"If I find out which bastard took my newbie perks, I'll kill him!"

The mountain god of Liangshan was startled and quickly covered Li Yuan's mouth.

"Be careful what you say, be careful what you say."

How could these lowly mountain gods possibly guess the abilities of those above?

What if someone hears this?

Li Yuan was filled with resentment.

If someone hadn't taken his blessings, would Ansan have been half-dead for so many years?

Why did he remain an unknown figure for so many years?

At the Grand Assembly of Ten Thousand Immortals, would he still need to cry, make a scene, and threaten suicide?

Even I, the mountain god of Anshan, am a kind and good-hearted being at heart!

After a conversation, Li Yuan felt that he got along quite well with the Liangshan Mountain God.

As for this old man, as long as you praise him and brag about him, you'll be good friends.

"Old man of Liangshan, we have a very pleasant conversation. Why don't we become sworn brothers?" Li Yuanyi cupped his hands in greeting.

At this moment, the green bamboo leaves in the mountains are falling. The two people, one old and one young, sit in the bamboo forest, their ethereal beauty and otherworldly charm quite captivating.

The mountain god of Liangshan pondered for a moment: "What do you mean by this?"

Li Yuan smiled slightly:

"Now that we've sworn brotherhood, there are two of us. If we find 106 more heroes, we can make a total of 108 Liangshan heroes..."

"roll!"

The mountain god of Liangshan roared angrily, waved his sleeve, and teleported Li Yuan directly down the mountain.

Li Yuan was still chattering away when he suddenly realized he was at the foot of the mountain.

A wisp of immortal energy, carrying a voice transmission, drifted over and entered Li Yuan's ears.

“Recently, there have been signs of evil spirits causing trouble in the county town at the foot of the mountain.”

"You little rascal, help me investigate this matter of evil spirits!"

"I am old and only wish to cultivate myself to ascend to heaven. I do not want to travel around."

"If you resolve the matter of the evil spirits, I will give you a hundred spiritual stones and a thousand catties of spiritual soil in exchange!"

After hearing this, Li Yuan used his immortal power to echo back:

"Hey! A thousand catties of spiritual soil, even if scattered across my Anshan Mountain, wouldn't be enough to cover even a single layer!"

"Someone as ambitious as you shouldn't be so petty!"

"Facing evil spirits is dangerous, how about we add a little more, okay?"

"I don't need much, 100,000 catties of spirit soil, is that alright?"

After a long while, the mountain god of Liangshan finally replied with a telepathic message:

"Get out of here!"

Li Yuan shook his head and leisurely descended Liangshan Mountain.

-

The highest point in the nine heavens, Lingxiao.

The Heavenly Emperor, utterly bored, idly fiddled with the remonstrance document, his jade crown slightly askew and his robes a little disheveled.

"Since the Heavenly Court has stabilized, it has been incredibly boring..." The Heavenly Emperor sighed.

In his eternal life, he has accomplished all the great things that needed to be done.

Now that the Three Realms are at peace, all the immortals and gods are performing their duties and overseeing things on behalf of Heaven, so there is nothing that can keep this Heavenly Emperor busy.

Every day, he would savor delicacies from the immortals, play with wondrous beasts of heaven and earth, whisper sweet nothings to the Queen Mother of the West, or sleep soundly without a care in the world.

Life is truly dull and boring.

For some reason, the Heavenly Emperor suddenly remembered the little immortal who had cried so bitterly at the Grand Assembly of Ten Thousand Immortals more than a hundred years ago.

"It's better..."

A stimulating light flashed in the eyes of this Heavenly Emperor.

Having been in a high place for so long, it's time to see it for myself.

Is the Three Realms as peaceful and stable as described in the memorials?
