Investiture of the Gods: I Compete with the Sages for Destiny

While watching a livestream, Ziyang spotted a streamer teaching people how to cultivate techniques. He decided it was his duty to expose this fraud. So he promptly hit the report button. And then he was sent to the world of Investiture of the Gods. He had planned to join the Chan Sect and earn some merit, then secure a divine position and gather faith to aid his cultivation. Instead, he discovered that not only had his childhood sweetheart joined the Jie Sect, but he himself was being worshipped in the Grand Temple of Great Shang. The calamity of Investiture of the Gods was about to begin. As a mere quasi-sage, how could he protect Great Shang and the Jie Sect?
