I Went Down the Mountain to Travel the World, Only to Find My Taoist Temple Robbed When I Returned

Yun Yang transmigrates into an ordinary world and inherits a Taoist temple. After his master passes away, he goes down the mountain to gain experience for two and a half years. But when he returns, he finds that someone has taken over the temple.

The main hall, once dedicated to the Three Pure Ones, now enshrines Bodhisattvas and Arhats.

Within a kilometer of the little house where he lives, everything has become a tourist attraction. Even to go up the mountain and return to his temple, he has to buy a ticket.

Want your temple back? No chance.

Just then, Yun Yang awakens the Taoist System. His beginner's gift pack contains the Taiping Jing, the Five Ghosts' Transporting Technique, and a Bad Luck Talisman.

If you won't give my temple back, I'll just take my things myself.

The Five Ghosts carry away the statues of the Bodhisattvas and Arhats. The fake monk refuses to admit defeat, so Yun Yang slaps on the Bad Luck Talisman. Misfortune clings to him, and even a trip to the toilet ends with him taking a nasty fall.

The monk loses, then reneges on returning the temple!

Yun Yang makes a hand seal. Dark clouds gather overhead, and a bolt of lightning crashes down, striking the old monk.

"Female devotee, you have to believe in science."

As soon as Yun Yang finishes speaking, a long sword flies beneath his feet. He leaps onto it and rides off through the sky.
