In front of the mountain god temple, there are four earth gods. Two of them are relatively tall and are wearing the same clothes. One is the earth goddess and the other is the earth god. They look like a married couple.

The Earth God of Mirror Lake was very envious of them. "Great Immortal, these two are Earth Gods from Changlin. They are husband and wife."

"Greetings, Great Immortal."

The two local deities bowed in respect.

Changlin is located at the northernmost part of the Ziyun Mountains, far from Longhu Temple, and belongs to the territory of Da Chu. In Da Chu, the status of gods is much higher than that of Da Xia.

"Junior Qin Luo greets the two seniors."

Qin Luo returned the greeting with a cupped hand.

They were shocked by Qin Luo's attitude.

Everyone had heard of Qin Luo's power, but they never expected that such a powerful cultivator would be so polite to them.

The Earth God of Mirror Lake then introduced, "This is the Earth God of Red Maple Valley, located south of the Purple Cloud Mountains, and this is the Earth God of Three Crossroads, located west of the Purple Cloud Mountains."

The Earth God of Red Maple Valley is not tall, wears a tattered hat, and has long, thin white eyebrows that droop to the ground. The Earth God of the Three-Fork Crossroad has a very red face, like a drunken child.

"Greetings, Great Immortal."

"There's no need for such formalities, seniors."

Qin Luo knew that these "official" local gods had lived for a very long time, even longer than the spirits present.

An old man in a green robe walked up to Qin Luo and introduced himself: "Great Immortal, my name is Pan Geng. I am a thousand-year-old tree spirit from Nanshan. I am willing to serve you."

Qin Luo didn't sense any malevolent aura from it. "Senior, are there many people around Nanshan?"

"Not many, about a hundred households."

Pan Geng answered truthfully.

"If you don't mind, senior, I can bestow upon you the title of Mountain God of Nanshan, and you will enjoy incense offerings thereafter."

Qin Luo looked serious.

Pan Geng was shocked; he couldn't believe his ears. Xiong Shan and the silver-haired dragon girl stared wide-eyed, and even the White Bone Demon and the Black Ox Demon beside them were filled with envy.

Those who are enfeoffed as gods will enjoy incense offerings and their cultivation speed will be greatly increased, which is a great opportunity for them.

"I do."

Pan Geng agreed without hesitation.

Qin Luo looked at the other spirits and said with a smile, "As long as you are willing to protect the people around you, I can appoint you as mountain gods."

The big black ox, which walks on two legs, knelt in front of Qin Luo, its two hooves together, and said excitedly, "Great Immortal, I am Niu Mang from Qingshan. I come down the mountain every year to work for the people. If you don't believe me, ask these mountain gods."

The Earth God of Red Maple Valley nodded. "That's true. Every year, Niu Mang transforms into a big black ox to help the people plow the fields, but its main purpose is to attract the attention of the cows."

"If you can't speak, then don't speak."

Niu Mang was so anxious that he blew his nose and glared.

His comical appearance made everyone laugh.

Zi Yue observed the monsters around her. Among them, the White Bone Demon and the Silver-Haired Dragon Girl were the most beautiful. The Silver-Haired Dragon Girl stood at the very back, looking somewhat out of place.

"Get up."

"I can appoint you as the mountain god of Qingshan."

Qin Luo could tell that the Black Bull Demon wasn't bad; if a demon frequently did bad things, its malevolent aura would become increasingly strong.

Niu Mang did not possess any malevolent aura.

"Thank you very much, Master."

Bang bang bang!

Niu Mang kowtowed three times.

The White Bone Demon walked up to Qin Luo. She was very beautiful and had a pleasant voice. "Great Immortal, my name is Hongyao. I don't remember anything from my previous life. I usually like to wander in the mountains, trying to find my past memories. The mountain I usually live on is Guiyun Mountain, where the people call me the White Bone Goddess."

Qin Luo could smell the incense emanating from the White Bone Demon, indicating that the local people were worshipping her. However, he did not yet have a divine position and could not fully absorb the incense offerings from the people.

Because the black rat spirit wasn't a real mountain god, even though it stole incense offerings, it couldn't gain any real power.

Ziyue blinked her bright eyes, "Sister Hongyao, were you the one who scared Zhao Fugui from Baiyun Town?"

She recalled what had happened some time ago.

Hongyao answered truthfully, "Little Fairy, I did go to Baiyun Town and even frightened the local people at night. After that, I rarely went to crowded places."

"Sister, I think you're quite pretty!"

Ziyue tilted her head.

Her little face was full of confusion.

Hongyao smiled gently, "That's because the little fairy is kind-hearted, so she saw what I looked like in my previous life. If she had evil thoughts, she would have seen my ugly side."

Pan Geng couldn't help but burst into laughter, "No wonder the old black ox jumped up the tree as soon as it saw you."

"Hahaha."

Everyone burst out laughing upon hearing this.

Niu Mang blushed and said, "Nonsense! In my eyes, all women are just beautiful but withered bones!"

Qin Luo looked at Xiong Shan, "Long time no see. Your cultivation has improved greatly. Would you be interested in becoming a mountain god?"

Xiong Shan was flattered and replied, "Yes, but I, Old Xiong, have not made any contribution to the people, and there are no people nearby."

"It's alright."

Qin Luo didn't pay any attention.

Xiong Shan was deeply moved to be trusted by Qin Luo. Qin Luo had previously given it the Primordial Leaf, which helped it undergo a complete transformation. If it were to be granted godhood again, it would definitely become a demon saint-level being in the future.

Xiong Shan knelt down and thanked Qin Luo.

Qin Luo formed hand seals, his body radiating golden light, his figure becoming majestic. He proclaimed in a loud voice, "I, Qin Luo, in the name of the Dao Ancestor, hereby appoint Pan Geng as the Mountain God of Nanshan, Xiong Shan as the Mountain God of Ziyun Mountain, Hong Yao as the Mountain God of Guiyun Mountain, and Niu Mang as the Mountain God of Qingshan Mountain."

"Pan Geng has received the mandate!"

"Katsuyama obeys!"

"Red Medicine obeys!"

"Niu Mang obeys!"

They all knelt before Qin Luo, bathed in golden light. At this moment, they resonated with the mountains guarding various places, and divine marks appeared within their bodies.
