The Incense of Faith Endures, I Alone Am the True Lord Beichen

[Slow burn + Building a faction + No female lead + Divine followers + Incense-based divine cultivation + Heavenly Court and Underworld]

This is a strange world where gods and Buddhas have vanished, evil spirits run rampant, and heretical cults flourish.

This is an age when divine authority has fallen, imperial power reigns supreme, the royal clan is as fierce as a tiger, and commoners are treated like grass.

Demons wreak havoc without restraint, and people no longer believe in the gods. Temples across the land lie in ruins, divine statues have toppled, faith has crumbled, and the divine path has entered an age of darkness without end.

It is into this very era that Xie Ling transmigrates, becoming a wild god in a small village.

In this world, even righteous gods renowned throughout the land have few believers, let alone a lowly wild god. He is fit only to be cast aside and left to gather dust.

Fortunately, he binds himself to the [A Little Incense Makes You a God System]. As long as he has enough incense offerings, he can banish evil and suppress demons, improve the soil, bring favorable winds and rain, benefit the people, and restore faith to the world.

(Your faith now spans Xicheng Township. Incense +1,000. Promoted to Ninth-Rank Mountain God.)

(You struck down the corrupt official who tormented the people. Incense +3,000. Reward: Divine Path Elixir. Promoted to Seventh-Rank City God.)

(You established the Underworld System. Incense +30,000. You may change your divine office to Dark Heaven Star Lord and oversee the Twenty-Eight Mansions.)

(You ushered in an age of prosperity and peace. Incense +100,000. Reward: Divine Manor Godhood. The Investiture of the Gods is now available.)

As Xie Ling gradually restores faith in the world, the emperor on the dragon throne finally decides to kill him. Gathering the dragon energy of the realm, he sets out to destroy the deity and the people under his protection.

At that moment, Xie Ling enters the dreams of a million followers and raises the banner of rebellion. If imperial power has become unjust, then he will rebuild the Heavenly Court!
