    Book 1: The protagonist, Chen Xun, a scholar in blue robes carrying a wooden sword, alternates between madness and lucidity, claiming countless lives with his sword. Yet, he unleashes his true power during a crisis in the cultivation world. Who understands the exhilarating feeling of "feigning madness in ordinary times, but turning the tide with a single sword strike"? Book 2: Qin Luo, seemingly mad but possessing extraordinary comprehension, is initially treated as a fool but secretly aligns with the Dao. When demons rampage, his declaration "I've understood" renders him immune to all magic. He calmly performs the most explosive feats, perfectly embodying the "sober-minded in times of national crisis" trope! Book 3: Lu Chuan, imprisoned by a system for 100,000 years and trained into a sword god, is mentally unstable yet ridiculously strong. When alien races invade, this "mad sword cultivator" sweeps through armies while spouting nonsense, his patriotism beneath his mad exterior is incredibly compelling! Book 4: Although not explicitly depicted as mad, Zhang Tianshi's "technological exorcism" is even more outrageous than madness itself! When zombies besiege the city, he pulls out a Gatling gun covered in talismans and sweeps away evil spirits with the words "Times have changed." This unconventional Taoist story is so exhilarating it's mind-blowing!
