Transmigrating to another world, starting as a mountain god

Li Yuan's irrigation project took a full seven days to complete.

It took seven days of divine power to draw water and integrate spiritual soil to improve the soil quality in this grain-growing area.

The spiritual soil was evenly mixed into the loess, and the spiritual energy it contained would continuously nourish the loess.

In the future, this area will become increasingly fertile.

After all, this is something only gods and immortals possess, more than enough to nourish the earth and grow food in the mortal world.

After seven days of continuous outputting immortal power, even with Anshan's constant replenishment of spiritual energy, Li Yuan was still somewhat exhausted.

However, the incense offered by the people only made his golden aura of merit even stronger.

Because of the large number of people who sincerely made offerings, the golden light of merit emanating from Li Yuan's body actually changed from a light gold to a pure gold.

Li Yuan carefully sensed the density of the immortal power within his body and couldn't help but be certain that he had reached the level of the Liangshan Mountain God.

According to the gold paper, Li Yuan was originally a ninth-rank mountain god.

In other words, as long as the spiritual energy concentration of Anshan increases, Li Yuan will immediately be promoted to an eighth-rank mountain god.

The people began to select high-quality grain seeds, preparing to plant grains throughout the planned hundreds of miles of land.

While the people were busy, Li Yuan sat on the top of Anshan Mountain and opened the book "The Hundred Records of Immortal Life".

According to that old man, this is a masterpiece that has been the culmination of ten thousand years of work.

Li Yuan couldn't help but examine it closely.

Upon seeing this, Li Yuan could no longer maintain his composure.

The "Hundred Records of Immortals" highlights the following:

When deities were conferred titles, the golden paper and jade edicts often stated that newly appointed immortals and gods of the mortal realm should promptly pay homage to Mother Earth, performing three kowtows and nine prostrations to express the Heavenly Court's goodwill and their own respect.

This must be remembered.

Li Yuan's face darkened; he had never done that.

Another key point of the "One Hundred Records of Immortal Life":

When a deity first receives offerings, half should be given to their assigned Jade Token Envoy, and the other half to the Earth Mother. The offerings must be neither too much nor too little, adhering strictly to the principle of five parts, to demonstrate a fair and grateful heart towards the Lord of Heaven and the Lord of Humanity.

This must be remembered.

Li Yuan raised an eyebrow, his expression turning even uglier.

The "Hundred Records of Immortals" states:

When immortals and deities in the human realm travel to different places, they should prepare small gifts and give them to any immortals they encounter in each place, so as to leave an impression and make it easier to interact with them in the future.

A small gift should not be something mundane or common. If you are short of money, you can find some rare and eye-catching jade to replace it.

This is not a rule, but the path of the benevolent immortal.

The third page of the "Hundred Records of Immortal Life" states: The Golden Paper Jade Token of the Investiture of the Gods says that the mountain gods of the human realm should carve a record of incense offerings every ten years and present it to their respective Jade Token Envoy; every hundred years, they should carve a record of merits and have it presented to the Lord of a Thousand Mountains by the Jade Token Envoy.

This is something the mountain god must do; do not forget it.

The "Hundred Records of Immortals" also contains...

Li Yuan scratched his head, grimacing as he gasped for breath.

The more he looked, the more goosebumps he got.

After only glancing at a few pages, Li Yuan realized how much he, as a newly ascended immortal, had failed to do in terms of 'living like an immortal'!

Li Yuan felt like crying again.

Many entries in this "Hundred Records of Immortal Life" mention the Golden Paper Jade Token.

When a new god is bestowed a title, the golden paper and jade decree usually consists of nine pages, which clearly states the rules and regulations of the Heavenly Court, as well as a detailed description of the duties that the newly appointed god should perform...

But... the golden paper jade token that Li Yuan received when he was conferred the title of god only had one page!

It only describes his investiture as a god, and some basic aspects of the Heavenly Court system!

As for the rest, Li Yuan knew nothing!

Li Yuan clenched his fists tightly!

So the person who took advantage of his newbie benefits was so sure that Li Yuan would be devoured by demons soon that they didn't even bother to tell him the rules!

Moreover, the reason why he has been pale and weak until now may also be because the gold paper and jade token are incomplete!

Li Yuan was furious.

Unaware of the rules mentioned in those golden paper and jade tokens, he had unknowingly transgressed the rules and offended many immortals and gods!

The other immortals and gods in the human realm are one thing, but the key is that Jade Token Envoy and the Earth Mother, who is known as the 'Lord of the Human Realm'!

One side is the direct superior, and the other side is the ultimate big shot.

Li Yuan has been a god for over a hundred years, and he has never flattered anyone. He even took the initiative to dig up the underground river of Mother Earth!

As Li Yuan thought about it, a wave of fear washed over him.

Fortunately, when I was digging the underground river, I chose to play the victim and beg for mercy honestly; if I had actually argued back, I might have been slapped to pieces by Mother Earth!

"Damn it, if I find out who stole my Blessing and Golden Jade Token..." Li Yuan gritted his teeth.

His blessings were swallowed up, and the golden paper and jade tokens were incomplete; this was truly pushing him to the brink of death!

If it weren't for the help of a mad old Taoist priest, he would have died in the mouth of demons long ago.

Even if they survive, they will have offended other gods because they are unaware of many of the rules of immortality!

Li Yuan even speculated that the immortal who devoured his blessings might be the Jade Token Envoy.

After all, the Jade Token Envoy is the person in charge of bestowing blessings and spreading good fortune!

Li Yuan was filled with mixed feelings, and in the end, he could only let out a sigh.

What has happened cannot be changed; all I can do is be more careful in the future.

Once we've accumulated enough incense offerings, we'll find some time to visit and pay homage to Mother Earth!

I hope to salvage some of my image in front of the big shot.

Li Yuan thought to himself.

He stood atop the hill, his brow furrowed, his eyes darting about.

Zhuge Laodeng gently shook behind Li Yuan:

"Mountain God, please do not worry."

"This is an injustice from above, not your fault."

As Li Yuan flipped through the "Hundred Records of Immortal Life," the old tree was right behind him.

Li Yuan didn't try to hide it, and the old tree knew a bit about its own mountain god's personality, so it naturally watched along with him.

Li Yuan sat down and leaned gently against the old tree, but sighed softly:

"At the time, I was only focused on working with ordinary people to improve the environment of Anshan and was eager to save myself."

"But we've forgotten that this vast Heavenly Court, with its countless eternal gods and immortals, and its clearly defined hierarchical rule, isn't it also a terrifying workplace? Alas..."

Li Yuan felt that he was still too young, and before he transmigrated, he was a homebody who didn't know much about social etiquette.

He gazed at the busy mortals below the mountain and could only console himself with the thought:

"Forget it, I'll just focus on managing my own territory first, and make sure I and the people are happy."

Li Yuan rested for a moment, then floated down the mountain.

Before leaving, he handed the "Hundred Records of Immortal Life" to the old tree.

"Take a closer look. If I ever offend someone and end up losing money, don't follow in my footsteps."

Li Yuan's somewhat helpless and dejected voice rang out.

The old tree swayed, and its dense green leaves rustled.

"Mountain God, do not be so discouraged."

"While interpersonal relationships are important, your achievements will certainly be noticed by those above!"

Zhuge Laodeng's voice came from afar.

Li Yuan waved his hand casually and said nothing more.

He had only one thought in his mind right now:

Do your job well and help people move towards a better life.

Accumulate merit and make yourself stronger.

Then go to heaven, find that wicked bastard who swallowed blessings, and kill him!
