[Name]: Mountain Leveling Divine Talisman
[Rank]: First-Order Divine Talisman
[Effect]: After use, it can turn mountains no taller than 1,000 meters into fertile land.
"So it really is literal…"
"Directly flatten mountains?"
Li Yue was slightly surprised.
To flatten mountains and fill seas—this was definitely an immensely terrifying divine power.
With his Ninth-Rank divine level, this kind of ability would normally be far beyond his reach.
But now—
Just by completing [Personal Task—Two], he had obtained a divine talisman containing such awe-inspiring power!
Of course, there were limitations.
It could only flatten peaks under 1,000 meters, but the mountains surrounding Four Seas Village weren't particularly tall. None exceeded that height.
"I'll keep this divine talisman for now," he muttered.
"Four Seas Village doesn't need any mountains flattened yet."
"Besides, using such a divine power with so few believers would be a bit wasteful..."
"I wonder if any Blue Star deities are selling 'Mountain Leveling Divine Talismans'?"
A thought stirred in his mind.
Over the past seventeen days, incense faith power had been converted into eleven units of divine power, with five additional units gained from task rewards, and one unit spent on dream manifestation.
At present, he possessed eighty-nine units of divine power.
His daily incense yield had already reached 782 units, and approximately every three days, that amounted to two more units of divine power.
If this pace continued, he'd accumulate over 200 units of divine power in a year.
And that was without counting the steady growth in the number of believers.
He opened the 「Regional Trading」 interface to take a look.
Unfortunately—
There wasn't a single "Mountain Leveling Divine Talisman" listed.
"I'll check again in a few days."
"After all, I've only just completed [Personal Task—Two], so most Blue Star deities probably haven't reached this point yet."
He murmured softly.
But surely, some Blue Star deities had already completed it.
After all, the first two tasks weren't directly related to divine rank.
Whether a Ninth-Rank Land Deity or a non-ranked wild god, either could finish them quickly with the right strategy.
"But this third task…"
His gaze settled on the description of [Personal Task—Three].

[Personal Task—Three]
[Task Description]: As your followers grow in number, your presence will eventually attract the attention of the wolf demons on Thousand Wolf Mountain. Strike first and eliminate them to protect your believers.
[Task Objective]: Eliminate the wolf demons on Thousand Wolf Mountain
[Task Reward]: One Spirit Field Divine Talisman, five First-Order Blessing Divine Records, and thirty units of divine power

"The wolf demons of Thousand Wolf Mountain…"
Li Yue murmured.
From the prayers of his believers, he had already gathered some knowledge of the area.
Four Seas Village was situated to the west of Greenwood Town, nestled about 10 kilometers deep into a mountainous region.
Within this mountain region were four villages.
Less than 5 kilometers to the north of these villages stood the tallest peak—Thousand Wolf Mountain.
It was inhabited by a large number of wild wolves, including one terrifying wolf demon.
Every three years, the demon would emerge from the mountain and select one of the four villages at random.
It would capture and devour nine people before retreating.
The former Li Family Village had been fortunate—it hadn't been selected for nine years.
The Chen Family Village wasn't so lucky. Three years ago, nine adult men were devoured by the wolf demon.
That tragedy led to their merger with Li Family Village, forming today's Four Seas Village.
The shadow of the wolf demon still lingered over their hearts.
They desperately hoped for the protection of a god—so that they would no longer fall prey to such terror.
They also longed to become martial artists, capable of resisting demonic threats.
"I wonder what strength level the wolf demon possesses…"
"Compared to martial artists in this world…"
"A non-ranked wild god, with sufficient divine power, probably has the strength of a Second-Order limit cultivator."
"A Ninth-Rank Land Deity should be at the level of a Fourth-Order limit..."
Fourth-Order limit.
In this world, that rank was called the Yin-Yang Realm, known publicly as a Grandmaster.
His eyes gleamed with contemplation.
Based on what he had heard—
A Fourth-Order Yin-Yang Realm Grandmaster was already considered a formidable expert.
Of course—
This was merely the opinion of Li Youming, Li Deyang, and others in the village.
What place a Fourth-Order Grandmaster held in the wider world—he would only know after deeper investigation.
Still—
The title "Grandmaster" was not given lightly. They could not possibly be weak.
"I just don't know what level the wolf demon of Thousand Wolf Mountain has reached…"
"Or what the weakest level of demon in this world is…"
He whispered thoughtfully.
Li Youming and Li Deyang—the two most knowledgeable people in the village—didn't know either.
They only knew one thing:
Only by practicing martial arts could one hope to resist demons.
But what level of strength was required remained a mystery.
"Let's see how other Blue Star deities complete this task first…"
"Our starting conditions should be similar…"
"The strength of the demon encountered in the third task shouldn't vary much either."
He remained calm.
Though he was now a god, he had no intention of being reckless.
After all—he was now a god. How could he not value his own life?
He opened the 「Regional Chat」 interface and began reading through it.
He didn't speak. Just quietly observed like a professional lurker.
He believed—
Once someone attempted the third task, they wouldn't be able to resist sharing their experience.
Even if they were dying.
They'd post a status update first!
"The first two tasks were the same for everyone."
"The third shouldn't differ too much either."
He sat cross-legged in his Divine Domain, watching the conversations of the Blue Star deities with great amusement.
In this boring, tedious world—
His greatest pleasure was watching these clueless deities chat.
If not for the 「Regional Chat」 interface, he wouldn't even know how to pass the time.
After all, as a deity—
He didn't need to spend time cultivating. All he had to do was watch over his believers.
That left him with an abundance of free time each day.
Fortunately, the chat interface updated frequently.
There were many idle gods—just like him.
After lurking for three days, something finally caught his eye.
His spirit lifted as a fellow deity began broadcasting their experience with [Personal Task—Three].

[Brothers and sisters, I've seen many of you asking about the demon strength in the third task over the past couple of days—well, I'm here to bring you the answer!]
[The first two tasks were simple—most of us got through them easily. But the third one? This is a real fight. A test of our ability to slay demons and protect our believers!]
[As a non-ranked wild god, my own strength is probably around Second-Order limit. My appointed temple priest is likely at First-Order upper stage. Right now, I've saved up fifteen units of divine power—enough to cast 'Golden Blade Technique' fifteen times.]
[I've just issued a divine decree, ordering my temple priest to lure the demon to the village. Wish me luck, everyone. I'm going to test the third task demon's power with my own body—for the sake of all of you!]

More than two hours later.
The same deity updated again.
[The demon has entered the village! It's real! Picture proof! Wild Boar Demon.jpg]
[I'm going in now! Wish me luck! I'll report back soon!]
