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

The scene on the screen froze instantly after Shen Xingzhuo finished speaking.

Shen Xingzhuo's pupils were almost jet black, and the image was fixed on her eyebrows and eyes, just enough for the person watching the sky to see the reflection in her eyes—

The lingering power of the Nine Syllable Mantra dispersed most of the eerie atmosphere around them.

The originally gray and gloomy scene brightened up a bit in the reflection of her eyes.

Shen Xingzhuo squatted down and reached out to gently pull Pei Jinyu, who was bent over, back to her original position.

The light in her eyes, which always held a gentle smile, had faded.

Pei Jinyu's head tilted uncontrollably to one side.

Her pupils were grayish-white, and her tongue hung long on the side of her face.

The image in the sky slowly shifted onto Pei Jinyu's face.

Her eyes stared blankly ahead.

Shen Xingzhuo put one arm around her and gently pushed her long tongue back into his mouth with the other.

"call……"

In this space, even Shen Xingzhuo's breathing is exceptionally clear.

She looked up and around; Pei Xi and Shen Guantang were frozen in place.

The body of the lantern bearer, which she had chopped to pieces, had already begun to turn into bones.

After arranging the three of them side by side, he stood up, his steps slightly unsteady.

[Oh no, every time I think I'm making progress, something happens that I just can't understand.]

Sister Shen looks very weak. I'll donate one billion star coins to build a temple for her!

[No wonder the old folks always say that anything that can be solved with money isn't a problem... Turns out, they can even find a loophole to give Sister Shen some support!]

I'll give eight million!

【I……】

A wave of donations suddenly swept through the live chat.

It was only through Guan Shanyue's personal intervention that the corrupting influence of the Tianxia Kingdom's citizens was finally stopped.

However, the incomprehensible comment in the live chat still caught Guan Shanyue's eye.

This statement reflects reality and serves as a wake-up call for her.

Although she had learned some esoteric arts from Shen Xingzhuo over the past few days, it was only a superficial understanding and far from enough for her to analyze the current situation thoroughly.

[Please confirm, Commander-in-Chief of Tianxia Kingdom, whether to use 200 national fortune points to exchange for an opportunity to speak with the Chosen One, and to send the Chosen One an item.]

The ghost story's voice sounded somewhat unsteady.

Guan Shanyue had no doubts and nodded in confirmation.

Soon, her illusory image appeared in the space near Shen Xingzhuo.

The moment she met Shen Xingzhuo's gaze, she noticed that her face was even paler than it had appeared in the sky.

"Starfire, the potion."

Guan Shanyue handed over the most powerful healing potion of the interstellar era.

This drug has achieved 300% efficacy; it's no exaggeration to say that its medicinal properties can instantly reconnect with necrotic neurons.

Because of its potent effects, interstellar people often choose not to use it.

However, Shen Xingzhuo's skin and flesh had already necrotized under the heavenly lightning. If a strong medicine wasn't administered, Guan Shanyue feared that her 21st-century physical condition wouldn't be able to withstand it.

Shen Xingzhuo took the crystal-clear blue medicine bottle, but did not open it or drink it.

"I have the decree of the Fengdu authorities; Heaven will not kill me."

She shook the medicine bottle in her hand. "But you delivered this just in time; I'll need it later."

Shen Xingzhu smiled, her eyes brimming with elegance.

Seeing that she was confident, Guan Shanyue felt relieved.

"I was too hasty this time." She pursed her lips and continued, "But Xingzhuo, I need to know what your next plan is."
