Emperor Baosheng opened the catalogue of the holy king and the king of Sanshan. Long Yuan is one of the four spirits in ancient China mythology. There are dragon kings in the Divine Mantra Sutra of Taishang Cave, which lists the "five emperors" according to their spatial orientation, namely, the dragon king of Di Qing in the east, the red dragon king of Chi Di in the south, the white emperor Bai Longwang in the west, the black dragon king of Hei Di in the north and the yellow dragon king in the middle. The "Four Seas Dragon Kings" divided by ocean names are the East China Sea Dragon King, the South China Sea Dragon King, the West Sea Dragon King and the North Sea Dragon King. And fifty-four dragon kings and sixty-two dragon kings related to the universe. During the reign of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, the Dragon Pool in the temple was called and an altar official was set up to worship the Dragon King. Song Taizu followed the Five Dragon Sacrifice System in Tang Dynasty. In the second year of Song Huizong Daguan (1 108), all the five dragons in the world were given titles, Qinglong God was named King Ren Guang, Red Dragon God was named King Jiaze, Huanglong God was named King Fu Ying, White Dragon God was named King Yiji and Black Dragon God was named King Lingze. In the second year of Tongzhi in Qing Dynasty (1863), the dragon god of the canal was named "the dragon god who should divide the water", which made the river chief sacrifice in time.

Judging from this function, the dragon king's duty is to spread rain clouds to relieve people's summer heat and troubles, and the dragon king's water control has become a common belief among the people. The "Dragon King's Product" in Taoism's "The Mantra Sutra of Taishang East Shen Yuan" says that "the land is dry, the grain is not harvested, and the time is unknown in twos and threes." At the beginning of the Yuan Dynasty, the Buddha came to the land by five-color clouds, and together with the Dragon King and other heavenly kings, he preached dharma to save all beings and get timely nourishment.

Regarding the birthday of the Dragon King, there are differences between various literature records and local folklore. In the past, temples dedicated to the dragon king were almost as common as temples in the city god. Whenever the wind and rain are unbalanced, it doesn't rain for a long time, or it rains for a long time, the people will go to the Longwang Temple to burn incense and pray for the Dragon King to control the water and the good weather.
