I started to burn incense sticks for myself before I died.
I even placed a hundred loudspeakers at the entrance of the Taoist temple, where I was from, to chant scriptures for myself all the time.
The pilgrims thought I was crazy.
The firefighters thought that the Taoist temple was on fire.
The other Taoist priests thought that I did all the ridiculous things because I was overwhelmed by my master's death.
But I swore in the name of the founder of Taoism that I was the only sober one.

In three months, the Apocalypse would start, and countless demons would descend upon humanity.
The only thing that could counterbalance the demons was the Virtue Points accumulated through burning incense and reciting scriptures.
People with sufficient Virtue Points would be able to keep off or drive the demons away.
Those with extremely high Virtue Points could even kill the demons.
I knew that because I was reborn to the world.
As a novice nun in a small Taoist temple, I had some Virtue Points, but far from enough.
In my previous life, I lived for quite some time in the Apocalypse, thanks to the Virtue Points I had accumulated.
However, the demons in the Apocalypse were super dangerous, and people? Even worse.
I could have lived longer, but I was consumed by my husband and mother-in-law.
Yes, as a Taoist nun, I had the right to get married and have children.
Yet sadly, the one I chose to marry was not a good man.

When the Apocalypse had just arrived, they had no Virtue Points and could only rely on my protection. At that time, we lived in harmony.
Later, as the demons killed more and more people, the whole society could not function properly and resources became increasingly scarce.
When resources were extremely scarce, the evil side of human nature was exposed.
In the second year of the Apocalypse, we were left without any food at home. We had been starving for nearly a week.
Taking advantage of the darkness at night, my husband and mother-in-law tied me up.
They did not kill me, but instead, they cut my flesh bit by bit while I was still alive and drank my blood.
After enduring long torment, I finally died in the resentful eyes of my husband and mother-in-law.
Yes, you heard me.
My death, for me, was a relief, but for my husband and my mother-in-law, it was such a pity that they just lost their source of sustenance and protection.
Perhaps it was because of the heavy resentment I died with, or perhaps it was the blessing of the founder, that I found myself being reborn to the world before the Apocalypse.
After being reborn, I somehow unlocked the Virtue System, which converted all my Virtue Points into numerical values.
A lot of behaviors would increase my virtue value, including reciting scriptures, burning incense, striking the temple blocks, doing good deeds, treating and saving people, and punishing evil people, etc.
The system would be of great hel...
