Rules of the Strange: I Became a God in a Bizarre World Through Taoist Arts

Shen Xingzhuo's finger hovered over the button, immediately raising the alert for the strange tale sounds.

Those who had been guarding the canopy in the safe zone breathed a long sigh of relief, their hearts finally settling back into their stomachs.

Luckily we had plenty of props, otherwise we wouldn't have been able to reason with anyone!

[I really want to show those who demand the same treatment as Sister Shen what "high-class" treatment they want! Tianxia is willing to give them everything, and they only want to be treated like nobodys.]

[Hahahaha, how could they possibly stand that? They'll just come out and say we're too domineering again (disdain.gif)]

Some people were chatting enthusiastically, while others were focused on analyzing the instruction manuals for the props that were passing by below the canopy.

[I'm thinking, since there are supposedly complaint channels, doesn't that mean the strange tales we're hearing are just a small fry?]

[This is terrifying to think about...]

I have studied in detail the epochal transitions in history books. I remember that the marker from the end of the world to the interstellar era was the first time the citizens of Planet Kayut entered the solar system and discovered our Earth civilization.

[Does this mean that higher-dimensional beings have appeared?]

The speculations in the comments section are the deductions made by Guan Shanyue and others.

The apocalyptic period in history was not as depicted in popular novels on ancient Earth—

When a terrible natural disaster struck, and humanity faced a shortage of resources, it developed various supernatural abilities.

They used this to fight against the zombie king and survived on the barren and desolate Earth.

The real apocalypse is actually caused by the mutation of dark matter, which leads to a qualitative change in the gravitational environment of the entire universe, resulting in anomalies in the spacetime structure and the phenomenon of vacuum decay.

During that period, water could be fire, and diamonds could be the softest substance in the world.

Not only has the most severe energy crisis in Earth's history occurred, but the cost of maintaining human life has also become extremely high.

This is why many civilizations on the ancient planet were wiped out in an instant.

The mere acceleration of material decay caused civilizations that had stood for thousands of years to crumble overnight, turning them into ruins.

Fortunately, the period before the apocalypse was an era of AI rebellion.

Human technological civilization has reached a certain level.

That's how some things were miraculously preserved in this "natural disaster".

Those who survived that era owed their survival not only to the evolution of their physical abilities, but also largely to a matter of luck.

However, as time went by, people who gradually returned to a stable life selectively weakened this memory.

Now, ghost stories have invaded.

Interstellar people who have experienced countless hardships might not have considered the possibility of higher-dimensional beings behind the strange invasions due to a combination of factors.

In fact, if Shen Xingzhuo weren't in the supernatural tale at this moment, she would also use her knowledge of the Xuanmen sect to explain the truth, provided she shared a brain with Guan Shanyue.

Luck isn't something ethereal or intangible. It's tangible. Just as a magnet has a magnetic field, people also have a "luck field." When you do good deeds and accumulate virtue, your luck field shines; when you do evil and harm others, your luck field darkens. Brightness attracts good things, while darkness invites disaster.

Why has Pei Shiquan been able to have such a smooth life for so many years? It's not because he's lucky. It's because he forcefully snatched other people's fortunes and attached them to himself. Other people's glory shone on him. Other people's lives shielded him from disaster.
