Abstract: Sichuan Lord belief is a kind of local belief which spreads outward with Ba Shu as the center. The academic research on Sichuan Lord mainly focused on the great aspects such as the origin of history and social culture, and the microcosm of the case of Sichuan Lord has yet to be paid. The study had shown that the reason why the Sichuan Lord in the Cuiping district of Sichuan, which was founded in the Chenghua period of the Ming Dynasty, can continue to this day is due to the multi- functional nature of the Sichuan Lord and the protection of the Quanzhen school of Daoism. The decline of the Sichuan Lord temple fair reflects the impact of social and economic factors. Through this case study, it can be seen that the survival of local beliefs is related to the basic principles such as the versatility of god's abilities and the ability to respond to the social environment.

Key words: Yibin Cuiping district, Sichuan Lord temple, Continuation, Change
