The text was mentioned in classic works such as Rites of Zhou as one of the three major divination systems, the "Three Yis" (三易), along with I Ching and Guicang.
Unlike the I Ching, Lianshan is largely a lost work. Throughout history, partial or rediscovered versions of the Lianshan were claimed to have survived, although their authenticity are now questioned by modern scholars. "Fragments" of Lianshan were reconstructed by the Qing dynasty scholar Ma Guohan (馬國翰, 1794-1857) through quotations from other texts, although modern scholars also doubt their faithfulness to the original. During the Qing, other "sets of fragments" of Lianshan were also compiled by other writers, such as Guanhui Daoren (觀頮道人) and Wang Mo (王謨, 1731-1817).
Like the Lianshan, Guicang was also lost since ancient times, until a manuscript of the text was rediscovered in 1993.
