Background / History
Li Yue, a human from Earth, transmigrated into a multiverse framework where thirty billion people became Wild Gods 1. Trapped initially inside a small Land God statue in Li Family Village, he received a unique cheat: a Hundredfold Amplification talent that magnified his believers' tributes a hundredfold 1 2. Using this advantage, he rapidly sold high-tier offerings to the Deity Shop, accumulated divine power, and ascended through the ranks from an unranked Wild God to an Orthodox Land God 2 3.
As his divine rank and jurisdiction expanded from Li Family Village to Four Seas Village, Four Seas Town, and eventually encompassing multi-county territories, Li Yue appointed Temple Keepers like Li Youming and enfeoffed Subordinate Gods 3 124 156. He continuously cleared out surrounding Demonic Creatures, collected rare treasures, and integrated vast human populations into his faith 30 122.
Over centuries of progression, Li Yue elevated his status to City God, established the Great Zhen Holy Dynasty, formed the Eternal Divine Court, and ventured into cosmic realms such as the God-Fallen Heavenly Road, Mythic Dimension, and Star Realm Dimension 156 538 803 1123. By conquering heavenly courts, defeating Taboo Life entities like White-Haired Dao Gu, and unifying dimensions, he positioned himself as the Eternal God Lord, striving to make humanity the dominant race across the universe 803 1064 1217.
After slaying White-Haired Dao Gu, Li Yue began preparing for the Gray Valley Ark and the increasingly dangerous conflicts beyond the Pangu Dimension. He used Dao-Treading Grade Blessing Talismans, accelerated cultivation spaces, and the Seal of Dao Origin to cultivate loyal believers and build an expanding force of Dao-Treading Creatures and prospective Taboo Lives 1217 1241. His realization that a deity must first ensure the safety and prosperity of believers became the foundation for his successful proving of the Taboo Divine Rank 1288.
Li Yue subsequently subdued the Divine Path Alliance, investigated the major Divine Path powers of the Three Thousand Dimensions, and forged a karmic connection with the Qian Origin Lineage through Pangu's origin 1324 1364. During prolonged cultivation, he comprehended eighteen Origin Great Daos and completed the Qian Origin Eternal Body, while retaining his attachment to his origins, former companions, and the human civilization within his jurisdiction 1380.
Seeking the materials needed to advance further, Li Yue entered the Lands of Extinction and Ultimate Life, adapting to their unusual rules while collecting Extinction Lights and Lights of Ultimate Life 1410 1431. His subsequent Super-grade Taboo advancement revealed that the Divine Path's life-and-death foundation may conceal power beyond the Origin Great Daos 1443.
In Ancient God Land, Li Yue discovered that the realm was formed from the corpse of an ancient, immensely powerful Divine Path being. He acquired and mastered the Heartfire Art, Earth Method, Liver God Method, Divine Water Method, and Heavenly Gold Technique, the five supreme secret arts connected to the Ancient God's five viscera 1486 1494 1495. After using the land's authority to outmaneuver Emperor Lord disciples and seize their special treasures, he completed his Dao-Wielding Divine Rank advancement and began reorganizing his most loyal followers through the Emperor's Painting 1498 1501.
While cultivating near a stone grotto associated with the source of the Divine Path, Li Yue encountered the remnant thought of Unawakened, one of the three Ancient Gods. The remnant revealed that the Divine Path Origin Sea is the source of High Heaven's Divine Path, that only Transcenders can enter it safely, and that Ancient Emperor Lord Zhi's inheritance may be intended to find a replacement for his captivity there 1510. Li Yue judged the remnant's testimony approximately sixty to seventy percent trustworthy. He also found an unreadable silver foil sheet within the nearby “Stop Here” tablet, but declined to take it because its origin and possible connection to Zhi remained uncertain 1510.
In the Cloudbound World, Li Yue intervened when the Spirit, Blood, Origin, and God Clans launched a massive assault on Human Territory. He suppressed their five Quasi-Transcenders, hundreds of Half-step Transcenders, and more than ten thousand Dimension-level beings, ordering the four clans to leave humanity unharmed for one hundred thousand years 1527. The world's Origin Will acknowledged humanity's qualification as a Peak Clan and provided a corrected version of the True Explanation of Cloud Opening and Insight. Upon returning to the Three Thousand Dimensions, Li Yue discovered a hidden portion of Origin Authority within himself 1527.
His arrival in the Divine Path Heavenly Realm exposed him to fundamentally incompatible laws. His speech, movements, and perception unintentionally distorted living beings and generated monsters, causing the inhabitants of the Willing Blue Great World to mistake him for an extraterrestrial Evil God 1549 1550. Following the realm's mission, he destroyed its gods and Evil Gods, established the Divine Path Rule, and created Sky Divine City from the remnants of their Divine Kingdoms 1550 1553. Over ten years, the Al Saint Kingdom united the world as the Eternal Divine Kingdom, while Li Yue appointed nine new Star Lords and received a second mission to destroy the observing Merck Race and uncover its origin 1553.
After three thousand years of effort, Li Yue had reached the Mid Dao-Wielding Divine Rank and fulfilled all six conditions for advancement to the High rank, including the required divine power, Creation-grade believers and subordinate gods, saturation with Divine Path rules, and tasks in the Undead and Literary Path Heaven and Earth 1575. Before advancing, an Ancient Emperor Lord froze the Three Thousand Dimensions, declared Li Yue's side victorious in the final Three-versus-Three War, and summoned him above the clouds. The heavenly staircase granted Li Yue comprehension of his twenty-seventh and twenty-eighth Origin Great Daos, and the Emperor Lord assessed him as possessing the makings of an Ancient God 1575.
During the ensuing confrontation, Li Yue defended the Divine Path as a means of protecting ordinary people and opening cultivation to them. Ancient Emperor Lord Meng confronted Zhi's hidden incarnation over the destruction of Meng's lineage, and Zhi destroyed his own incarnation rather than fight 1576. Li Yue accepted Meng's Heaven and Earth Gate in exchange for a promise to annihilate Zhi's lineage. After resolving the shortage of suitable offerings through access to three additional worlds, he began his High Dao-Wielding advancement 1576 1577.
Land God Office and Divine Hierarchy
The Land God is a grassroots office within the Divine Path rather than a synonym for every deity. Land Gods govern villages and towns, while City Gods occupy a higher, middle-tier position governing cities and counties. In this world's system, both offices unite Yin and Yang authority rather than separating into exclusively Yin or Yang spirits 79 88 156.
- Entry into the office: Reaching Subordinate Ninth Rank allows an unranked Wild God to become an Orthodox Land God. Li Yue's first official seat was the Orthodox Land God of Li Family Village 1 2 3.
- Divine rank versus divine position: Advancement does not always immediately change the office. At Principal Ninth Rank, Li Yue remained the Orthodox Land God of Four Seas Village 32 33.
- Exclusive local office: There could be only one Land God of Four Seas Village. Although Principal Ninth Rank allowed Li Yue to invest two Subordinate Ninth Rank gods, he could not appoint another Land God to his own village and instead considered appointing a Mountain God 32.
- Subordinate village Land Gods: Li Yue later invested Land Gods for the four villages around Four Seas Town, making the office part of his expanding pantheon 121 124 126.
- Resource distinction: Land Gods are not limited by the spiritual energy of a particular mountain or river, but lack the Mountain Gods' and River Gods' ability to extract divine power from that spiritual energy 193.
- Administration: Local Land Gods assist mortal officials with matters they cannot uncover; their jurisdictions can overlap with their God Lord's territory while retaining powerful local awareness and control 377.
- Life-and-death foundation: Li Yue later recognized that even the Land God Office already connected life, death, Yin, and Yang, forming the beginning of the authority developed more fully by City Gods and Prefecture Lords 1443.
Appearance
Li Yue possesses a majestic and fluid divine form, frequently appearing as a towering figure clad in intricate imperial robes and crowns that shift with his rank.
- Divine Manifestation: Manifests as a giant standing thousands of feet tall with eyes resembling the sun and moon, or as a refined, youthful scholar-like deity wreathed in ethereal immortal mist 247 299.
- Attire: Evolves from basic Land God vestments to a black-and-gold City God Robe, and eventually to the supreme robes of the Eternal God Lord 3 156 247.
- Physical Features: Displays blurred, indistinct facial features save for piercing, majestic eyes that radiate supreme indifference and authority 247.
- Later Manifestations: Usually appears in restrained white robes when meeting old acquaintances or observing his empire, but can use Ancient God Land's authority to assume a colossal form with the apparent might of a Second Transcendence Realm expert 1380 1498.
- Heavenly Realm Perception: In the Willing Blue Great World, others perceive him as a monstrous being covered in tentacles, with eight heads and three thousand six hundred eyes. Li Yue still sees himself as a human man in white robes with flowing black hair; the discrepancy arises amid the incompatibility between his power system and the world's laws 1549 1550.
Personality
Li Yue is pragmatic, exceptionally cautious, and strategic, preferring absolute safety and overwhelming strength over risky battles.
- Pragmatic and Steady: He dislikes fighting in bloodbaths, favoring the strategy of crushing enemies by holding a higher realm of power or overwhelming resources 286.
- Ambitious and Decisive: He ruthlessly eliminates threats, clears out rival demonic sects, and systematically expands his divine court and military forces across dimensions 204 592.
- Benevolent Provider: Though calculating, he generously rewards loyal believers, temple keepers, and subordinate gods with divine talismans, rare beasts, and cultivation resources 190 224.
- Protective Ruler: He considers the safety, prosperity, and spiritual fulfillment of believers to be a deity's fundamental responsibility, and regards the protection of humanity and his subordinate factions as a personal duty 803 1288 1300.
- Patient and Humble Before the Unknown: Though fiercely ambitious, he reassesses his plans when confronted with genuinely higher powers and favors concealment, preparation, and overwhelming safeguards over reckless provocation 1408.
- Cunning Opportunist: He readily exploits terrain, timing, false identities, and opponents' assumptions to obtain advantages without unnecessary direct conflict 1498.
- Skeptical of Supreme Inheritances: He refuses to carry away an incomprehensible relic merely because it may be associated with an Ancient Emperor Lord, and treats even Unawakened's revelations as only partly reliable 1510.
- Protection Without Removing Struggle: He argues that the Divine Path gives ordinary people shelter and a chance to cultivate, but does not eliminate their need to struggle. An Ancient Emperor Lord challenges this position by accusing him of manufacturing crises to obtain gratitude 1576.
- Prepared to Face Unavoidable Danger: When summoned above the clouds, he recognizes that escape would be futile and proceeds with defensive talismans rather than abandoning his believers or future advancement 1575.
Abilities & Skills
Divine Arts & Spells
Li Yue possesses a massive arsenal of divine arts native to the Divine Path, which grow increasingly powerful as his rank ascends.

- Blessing Talisman Refinement: At Chaos Great Emperor-level strength, he could refine Blessing Talismans from First through Eighteenth Order, providing a scalable means of strengthening believers throughout the Eternal Divine Court 650.
Talent: Endless Amplification
- Amplifies all incoming grand sacrifice offerings by a hundredfold automatically, which can further be stacked or multiplied through Divine Path rules 1 288.
- Uncollected amplification from one Grand Sacrifice can accumulate for the next: foregoing one sacrifice's offerings allowed a two-hundredfold amplification at the following sacrifice 288.
- Combined amplification later reached 318,000-fold for a Zhu Xian Sword fragment, producing the taboo-grade Zhu Xian Ancient Sword 1029.
- The talent later completed a further Metamorphosis after Li Yue's Dao-Wielding Divine Rank advancement, though the full results were not immediately disclosed 1501.
- Offering Ownership Restriction: Resources already granted by Li Yue or belonging to his conquered territories cannot simply be returned to him as valid offerings. This became a serious obstacle at higher ranks, when suitable external offerings grew scarce 405 1577.
Combat-Power Multipliers
- Hundredfold Combat Power: Can amplify borrowed power as well as his own, allowing him to borrow the might of one hundred thousand Dao-Treading Creatures at a scale comparable to a million such creatures 1217.
- Three-thousand-fold Combat Power: A later multiplier of immense power whose activation consumes approximately one billion World Divine Power every fifty breaths 1410.
- Ten-thousand-fold Combat Power: By the Dao-Wielding Divine Rank, this multiplier could raise his combat power to roughly four times the Quasi-Transcendence-grade level 1445 1501.
- Special Treasure Combination: After refining the Emperor Lord disciples' special treasures, Li Yue expected to temporarily reach the weakest true Transcendence-grade power, at enormous energy cost and for approximately half a day 1501.
Ancient God Legacy
- Five Ancient God Supreme Arts: Li Yue mastered the Heartfire Art, Earth Method, Liver God Method, Divine Water Method, and Heavenly Gold Technique, each corresponding to an aspect of the Ancient God's five viscera 1494 1495.
- Five Divine Beasts: The five arts form and empower the Golden Crow, Qilin, Azure Dragon, Black Tortoise, and White Tiger within him, all of which reached the Half-step Transcendence-grade before merging into his five viscera 1495.
- Ancient God Land Authority: Within the Ancient God's corpse, the five arts grant Li Yue extraordinary control and permit him to draw upon the land's power for temporary, overwhelming amplification 1494 1498.
- Qian Origin Eternal Body: A peerless secret art of the Third Transcendence Realm completed after he cultivated eighteen Origin Great Daos to seventy-nine percent comprehension 1380.

- Freedom from the Statue: Orthodox Land God advancement freed Li Yue from the confinement of his statue's Divine Domain, allowing him to step into the mortal world 4.
- Innate Earth Control: Beginning with the Orthodox Land God office, deities possess unique control over the earth; this authority also underlies earth-related abilities inherited by Temple Keepers 18 405.
- Divine Domain Resurrection: At Principal Seventh Rank, his Divine Domain became his effective true body, permitting revival if his external divine body was destroyed. This resilience does not make a deity impossible to kill 200.
- Deity Pools: His first pool could hold one hundred million strands of divine power and refine approximately ten thousand strands daily from substances drawn from the void 200.
- Humanity Merit and Investiture: Recognized that Humanity Merit can preserve souls and reduce the Divine Law Fragments required to make them subordinate gods 68.
- Heavenly Dao Investiture: Can grant others portions of his Dao through Heavenly Dao Quasi-Emperor, Great Emperor, Emperor Sovereign, and later God King techniques 650 714.

- Zhu Xian Ancient Sword: A taboo-grade sword created by amplifying a Dao Ancestor-grade fragment 318,000-fold; one use initially required one World Divine Power, equivalent to one quadrillion River God Power 1029.
- National Fortune Golden Man / Twelve Golden Men: Obtained a severely damaged Immortal King-grade Golden Man to gather and suppress Great Zhen's national fortune. He later fused the Twelve Golden Men into the Twelve-Colored Pangu and controlled it with a tenth of his divine soul 829 1029.

- God Tree of Ages: Raised to displayed Dao-wielding Grade through a Profound Mirror Heavenly Mandate, accelerating time in the Qingyi Chaos World at a one-to-twenty-thousand ratio for beings below Dao-wielding Grade. Its briefly revealed Gate of Time nature suggested a concealed Transcendence-grade origin 1485.
- Nine-Mountain Immeasurable Divine Formation: A Dimension-level defensive formation intended to protect the Dimension of Myriad Daos, resist peak Dimension-level attacks, and gradually supply source essences 1328.
