You Were Supposed to Survive the Apocalypse, but You Built a Cultivation Sect

[No romance + all-female secret identities + light infrastructure building + pure wish fulfillment]

After dying from overwork and too many consecutive all-nighters, Shen Wuzhen opens her eyes again as a good-for-nothing esper in a survivor base. Just as the gangsters are about to drag her off to cripple her and force her into labor, the System appears.

[Do you want to become a magical girl?]

[The last person who became a magical girl has already turned into a witch! Pick someone else!]

[Fine, then. Do you want to survive? I can help.]

In the year 2348, just as a squad is about to be overwhelmed by a zombie horde...

A swarm of bats flies out of the darkness and devours the zombies before them.

This is the Jiusi Sect’s first appearance in the world.

As more and more cultivators appear, the people of Blue Star finally see a glimmer of hope.

A Gu cultivator looks disgusted. “These stinking living corpses are absolutely hideous.”

A spear cultivator pierces the heads of several zombies in succession. “It is our duty to vanquish evil and defend the righteous.”

A Pill cultivator in a pink robe smiles faintly. With a wave of her hand, a horde of zombies vanishes into ash. “Our Jiusi Sect has always repaid every grievance.”

The puppet master in a wheelchair rolls her eyes. “Traitors don’t get to speak.”

The people of Blue Star are stunned, but soon begin following ancient texts to build altars for the members of the Jiusi Sect, worshipping them on their knees every day.

“If all those powerful cultivators obey her, she must be an immortal!”

Shen “Immortal” Wuzhen: Achoo!

P.S. This is a mastermind-behind-the-scenes story. Don’t expect the lazy protagonist to lift a finger (shakes head).

The female lead treats the people of Blue Star as tools, and some will die as a result. Those mentioned in the blurb are only a few of her secret identities.

There is a background yuri couple.

Swear words are replaced with * throughout.
