The One Ring, forged by the Dark Lord Sauron, is both powerful and dangerous. The mechanic the Ring tempts you allows you to designate a creature as your Ring-bearer. Each time the Ring tempts you, it will gain a new ability that makes your Ring-bearer more powerful while attacking.

Playing a legendary land (or an artifact land) won't cause those abilities to trigger because lands are never spells.

"[Type]cycling [cost]" means "[Cost], Discard this card: Search your library for a [type] card, reveal it, put it into your hand, then shuffle." This type is usually a subtype (as in "Mountaincycling") but can be any card type, subtype, supertype, or combination thereof (as in "basic landcycling").
