The Abstract Talisman Sage

[Feel-Good Power Fantasy + Lighthearted + Contrasts + Misinterpretation Comedy + Apocalypse + Overpowered Protagonist]

Because his art style was too abstract, Long Shuo was expelled from art school. In the apocalypse, he had no choice but to sell talismans beneath a bridge to survive.

Then one day, someone found a doodle he had badly messed up.

The powerful figures from every faction cried out in astonishment: “This is the revelation of the Nameless True God of Talisman Arts!”

The daughters of prestigious clans fought to become his talisman apprentices, while the Federation Marshal knelt and begged him to stop the beast tide that threatened to destroy the world.

Long Shuo stared at his crooked stick-figure drawing, despair written all over his face. “This really is just a scrap I threw away!”

Everyone gazed at it fervently. “I see. The True God is guiding us to ‘break before we rebuild.’”

When the apocalyptic tribulation descended, Long Shuo was forced to throw out every abstract discarded sketch he had on hand.

In an instant, countless talismans converged upon their origin, and divine miracles descended upon the world.
