The Cultivation Notes of a Dragon-Proud Immortal Lord

I came from the mortal world, seeking immortality here. If immortality is like this, I'd rather return to the mortal world. Gu Wenjiu transmigrated to ancient times. He lost his phone, air conditioning, and food delivery, but gained health, health, and more health. At least there was one consolation: his father doted on him, his mother loved him, and his relatives were all kind. Though his parents would keep him on a tight leash, Gu Wenjiu had been an orphan for so long that he thought it over and decided, fine, life wasn't so bad. So, eager to return their affection, Gu Wenjiu rolled up his sleeves. Enough talk: time to hit the books! Learning had to start young. He would study the Four Books and Five Classics, practice the Six Arts, and work hard at the imperial exams, so he could lead the whole family onto the broad road of transforming into an ancient aristocratic clan... There was just one tiny problem. His eyes glowing gold was one thing, but why were the books glowing too!? (A scream) This isn't scientific!! [Dili-dili, di-di-di, Heavenly Book System starting up~] [Congratulations!

A mechanical wooden bird that bore a city on its back, spread its wings for ten thousand miles, and never once touched the ground; A black-robed sword immortal who entered the world with sword in hand, split rivers and seas, and had never known defeat. A Confucian sage whose words could become the law of the land, and a warrior god who could not be true to both loyalty and righteousness. A Buddhist heir who would betray neither the Buddha nor his beloved, and a ruler of the Central Continent who lost his realm after pacifying demons in three steps. The Hundred Schools of Thought, the wondrous mysteries of the Dao. Heroes from humble beginnings and prodigies of the Dao rose like dragons and serpents, contending for the Great Dao. Yet through three hundred years of turmoil, none could match the immortal lord whose splendor turned yin and yang upside down and reshaped creation... A few things to know: 1. The System is not very prominent and has its own backstory. It barely counts as a golden finger. This is classical cultivation from the ground up, so read with care. 2. An alternate-history setting modeled on the Tang and Song dynasties. 3. A ruthless sword immortal who uses all his wits on his wife x an immortal lord with 108 schemes, who does a good deed every day and has flexible standards. 4.

After that night, the occult returned to the world, evil spirits descended, and chaos engulfed the land. Fortunately, the gods took pity on humanity and sent down temples. People could offer their faith in exchange for a place to shelter. * A Yun knelt before the temple. His father had fallen from a cliff and died while building a shrine to the Corpse God. His body was never found. His mother had fed her body to the Gu God's egg. She never woke after the two-hundredth feeding. His older sister had been taken by the Cave God and never heard from again. “Gods, please protect us...” As strange creatures battered the door, A Yun held his younger brother and knelt at the feet of the Five Accesses God's statue, bowing and praying. The next moment, the Five Accesses God opened its mouth. “Mortal, offer that baby to me, and I will keep you safe tonight.” “God, I... I...” Just as A Yun fell into despair, he saw a Bodhisattva walking beneath the red moon. The boy who had transferred to their school from the depths of the mountains wore a profusion of silver ornaments that jingled as he moved. A vivid red mole sat between his brows. Holding a yellowed ancient scroll, he stepped through the clouds and strode beneath the moon. A Yun heard the boy speak in a voice both ethereal and cold: “Heavenly gods and earthly spirits, heed my edict.” “I hereby enshrine the Great Benevolent and Primordial Sage Emperor of Eastern Peak, Tianqi, who rules over life and death, shines with compassionate light, relieves suffering, and manifests the merciful form of the Compassionate One, opening the gateway to the birth and transformation of all beings!” The next moment, a light unlike anything A Yun had ever seen pierced the darkness and illuminated the mountains. The all-powerful Five Accesses God in A Yun's eyes wailed and died, becoming the first god to perish since the occult returned. And so began the new world. “He is my Blood Bodhisattva, my Living Buddha, my only god, the obsession I cannot let go of.” A few things to know: 1. Pairing: a cool, proud beauty as the bottom x a scheming, gloomy emperor of the underworld as the top, whose home has been stolen from him. Characterization may change before the story begins. 2. Leans toward folk legends and ghost stories, with a specialty from western Hunan. 3. The protagonist initially appears to be a Miaojiang Gu practitioner. There will also be scenes overseas. Theme: A person beside a mountain is an immortal.
