Fengshen: I, Nezha, don’t need a system

“There…there’s a monster!!!”

In the initial area of ​​the Demon-Slaying Conference, more than a dozen sect disciples ran out from the outer area with fear on their faces.

Their faces were as pale as paper, their eyes were filled with fear and dread, their once neat disciple uniforms were now in tatters, and even their flying instruments were missing.

At this moment, they could only rely on their own legs to run desperately, as if something terrible was chasing them from behind.

Their legs were tied with magic talismans, and with the full force of magic power, their speed had reached the extreme.

These talismans can temporarily increase their movement speed, but they also consume a lot of mana.

However, faced with unknown dangers, they dared not relax at all and only wanted to escape from this horrible place as soon as possible.

"What happened?"

A disciple who stayed behind saw them in such a mess and hurried forward to inquire about the situation.

The other disciples who returned early sneered at their performance, thinking they were too timid.

After all, encountering monsters in the Demon-Slaying Conference area is commonplace, so there is no need to make such a fuss.

"I...I don't know! That monster is too powerful! We can't resist it at all!"

A sect disciple said breathlessly, fear still lingering in his eyes.

Others echoed this, saying that they had never seen such a powerful monster. The monster was not only powerful, but also extremely fast, making it difficult to avoid.

"Did you see the monster clearly? Or what kind of monster it is?"

Another disciple who stayed behind asked.

However, those panicked disciples shook their heads, saying that they were only concerned with escaping and had no time to observe the details of the monster.

"No matter what, we must report this to the sect immediately. If a powerful monster really appears, it may threaten the safety of the entire Demon-Slaying Conference."

A disciple who stayed behind suggested.

Everyone nodded in agreement and immediately headed over to the Council of Elders formed at the conference.

And they soon received a response from the elders, which was to strengthen the surrounding formation defenses.

It is impossible for those evil spirits and monsters to leave the demon-slaying area. Even if they really leave, they are only the monsters in the outer area. If they dare to rush over directly, they are simply seeking death.

After all, the formation in the demon-slaying area is not a vegetarian. Even if there are some fish that slip through the net, they are very few. In this case, the problem can be solved by simply strengthening the defense of the formation.

Moreover, the elders have clearly stated that it has been a long time since any evil spirits or monsters dared to attack, and this time will be no exception.

So all we need to do is let the disciples on guard step up their defense.

The response of the Elders Council did not surprise the disciples who had participated in many Demon-Slaying Conferences. It could even be said that it was expected.

Because this happens every year, and every time someone makes the same suggestion, and the Elders give the same response.

Or maybe they had already guessed that they would do this.

As for those disciples who made mistakes due to their good ideas, it was almost their first time to participate in the Demon-Extermination Conference.

This makes them look down on these people even more, believing that they lack experience and judgment.

At the same time, some proud and self-respecting disciples have even taken note of these embarrassing disciples and are ready to ridicule them when the time comes.

They felt that these people not only brought shame upon themselves, but also upon the entire sect, and should be punished and taught a lesson.

"No news now?"

In the area where the Chunyang Sect was located, Long Liyi looked at the head brother anxiously, and kept nagging: "There are less than two months left before the end of the Demon-Slaying Conference. If Xiaotong still can't get in touch with us, then our points will probably be at the bottom this time!"

The head brother seemed very calm and consoled him, "Don't worry, I'm already trying to contact Chunyang. As long as he enters an area where he can communicate, he will be able to receive the message I sent. We just need to wait patiently, Chunyang will definitely show up at the most critical moment."

Hearing this, Long Liyi couldn't help but sigh: "Ah... I hope so." She prayed in her heart, looking forward to Chunyang's early return. After all, this Demon-Slaying Conference is very important to the Chunyang Sect, and the points ranking is directly related to the sect's reputation and status.

At this time, the head of Chunyang Sect was calm. He was used to such situations. Recalling that his junior fellow disciple Jianmu Zhenren had a similar experience, and also rushed back at the last minute.

In fact, the disciples of the Chunyang Sect have always been keen on exploring unknown areas. Unlike other sects, they focus more on improving their own strength and realm rather than simply pursuing points. Therefore, many disciples choose to go out on adventures to find opportunities for breakthroughs.

Of course, there is another reason for this.

——Chun Yang Sect currently has no shortage of resources and talented disciples.

Their profound foundation is enough to support their disciples to pursue higher-level goals. Therefore, even if they fall behind in points temporarily, they will not be too anxious.

On the contrary, they believe that as long as they stick to their own ideas, they will eventually achieve the desired results.

However, for other sects, the situation is quite different.

They are faced with the dilemma of scarce resources and lack of outstanding disciples. If they cannot survive by earning points, it will be difficult for them to gain a foothold in this cruel world of cultivating immortals.

Therefore, points are particularly important to these sects, and can even be said to be the key to life and death.

In addition, there are differences in the perspectives that Master Chunyang and Long Liyi have on the issue.

Long Liyi believes that this ranking is very important to them, while the head of Chunyang Sect believes that this is only a temporary setback and will not really affect the foundation of their Chunyang Sect.

He firmly believed that even if they lost Li Chunyang's points, they still had enough strength to rank among the top 20.

In fact, the disciples of Chunyang Sect have always worked very hard to explore various fields, not just limited to killing monsters to gain points.

If they devote all their efforts to slaying the monsters, I believe they will have no problem breaking into the top ten or even top five.

Of course, all this is based on the premise that Li Chunyang’s points are not taken into consideration.
