The Mad Ruins Dao Canon

In the “Mad Ruins Realm,” where perception is law, cultivating immortality means willingly infecting yourself with the world's madness. Spiritual energy is a lie, realms are delusions, and ascension means tearing through reality's cocoon and plunging into deeper madness.

Wang Xing has contracted this world's incurable disease: lucidity.

While people cultivate the “Five Senses of Betrayal Art” to see all things rot, he intermittently glimpses the world's horrifyingly “normal” face. His lucidity is poison, and the sects have placed him on their wanted lists. The world's madness is a punishment, constantly trying to assimilate him.

His journey begins with a paradox: if collective madness is a form of protection, could a cure be the true destruction?

To find the answer, he must uncover the truth behind the origins of the Mad Ruins and confront the shared subconscious muttering of every cultivator: “Don't wake up. It's even worse outside.”

This is a journey against the current, plunging into the abyss of madness in search of “awe.”

And when he reaches the ultimate answer, he will face civilization's cruelest choice: surrender to protective illusions, or look directly at the forgotten truth of what came after the gods fell.
