Name: So Strange It Drives You Mad, So Mad It Turns Strange
Author: Shu Dong

Synopsis

A bizarre world of cultivation, sinister cultivation methods, vicious weapons, absurd magical treasures, and an unconventional protagonist. Relaxed, cheerful, and fun. Hope you enjoy reading!

This world is home to strange beasts, strange treasures, weapon fiends, calamity fruits, and even the remains of immortals and gods.

While the minions of the weapon fiends are still risking their lives in service of their masters,

Wu Man just tells you to get lost. What do you need one for? Just devour it.

While treasure bearers are still scouring the land for trade goods to exchange with strange treasures,

Wu Man just breaks the whole thing apart. What’s the point of trading? I’ll take everything.

While calamity eaters are still squeezing calamity fruits for juice and refining medicine to avoid attracting bad luck,

Wu Man just bites into the fruit. What bad luck? My fate is just too strong.

If the immortals and gods want to borrow a path, let them. If they don’t lend it, take it by force.

A life running through with the character for “brute,” a creed forged from the character for “reckless.”

A cultivation world that was already bizarre became even stranger with the arrival of Wu Man.
