Immortal Mansion: With mediocre qualifications, I have no choice but to live forever

The battle between Zhou Yiqiao and Wu Ning was quite desperate. Even the third elder of the Netherworld Sect, who specialized in healing techniques, spent several months to heal the two of them.

"Brother Zhou, what kind of move is your sword move with sinister aura? It's really powerful!"

"If my Nine Nether Fires weren't afraid of evil things, it might be difficult to maintain a superficial tie."

In a wine shop in Jiutianfang City, Zhou Yiqiao and Wu Ning were drinking opposite each other and chatting about the competition.

"Although your sword moves are powerful, they are actually a little bit worse. If you could use sword moves instead of ordinary sword energy, the power would definitely be ten times stronger than it is now."

After drinking a few glasses of wine, Wu Ning suddenly put down the wine bowl and said.

Zhou Yiqiao shook his head and smiled lightly.

"Brother Wu, we monks in Yanzhou all practice certain skills. Where can we find the skills with sword moves?"

Wu Ning was stunned when he heard this, patted his head, and then took the lead.

"Hey, look at my memory."

"It doesn't matter. With Brother Zhou's potential, it won't be a problem to be promoted to the core after going to the Demon Sect tomorrow. Then I will ask my adoptive father to accept you as a disciple. You can have whatever skills you want!"

"Hahaha, Zhou will be here to thank you in advance."

Zhou Yiqiao toasted him with a toast and asked again.

"I haven't asked Brother Wu for advice on what kind of power distribution is within the Netherworld Demon Sect. Zhou must make some preparations in advance to avoid suffering unforeseen disasters after joining the Demon Sect."

Upon hearing this question, Wu Ning's face became solemn.

He pondered for a long time, and then unceremoniously ordered the two Demon Sect Yuanying disciples beside him to drive out all the monks in the wine shop, including the shop owner.

"Brother Zhou, do you know about the Demon Clan?"

After the two Demon Sect disciples drove everyone out of the wine shop, Wu Ning issued another soundproof ban before speaking.

"I have heard a little bit. It is said that the demons are a mysterious race that existed in ancient times. They have outstanding talents. Every demon is a chosen one with spiritual roots."

"Because the appearance is not much different from that of humans, some places call it a demon."

"When the Demon Clan was at its most powerful, not only the Nether Demon Realm, but even the Dead Ghost Realm and part of the Wasteland Barbarian Continent were under the control of the Demon Clan."

Zhou Yiqiao nodded and revealed his understanding of the demon clan through miscellaneous notes.

"Brother Zhou is right."

Wu Ning praised.

"But as far as I know, the demon clan gradually disappeared thousands of years ago. What is the connection with the Netherworld Demon Sect?"

Zhou Yiqiao looked confused.

"Brother Zhou doesn't know something, please listen to me slowly."

Wu Ning gave Zhou Yiqiao the wine jug, filled it with spirit wine himself, and then slowly spoke.

"Although demons are extremely talented, they are extremely difficult to reproduce."

"Tens of thousands of years ago, that generation of demons was in decline, and not one of the world's top experts was born among the entire demon clan."

"Seeing the decline of the Demon Clan, the forces in various states in the Tianchen Realm all raised their troops to invade. The Demon Clan was unable to do anything and had to give up more and more territory."

"The territory has been sharply reduced, the resources have plummeted, and coupled with the demon lord's already slow reproduction rate, the entire group has fallen into a vicious cycle that is getting weaker and weaker."

"In the end, after supporting it for several generations, the demon clan disappeared into the history of the Tianchen Realm at an extremely fast speed."

Wu Ning explained casually, and then turned the topic back to the distribution of forces within the Demon Sect.

"But among the demon clan, the most core group has not disappeared, but has hidden itself. This part is also related to the current power structure of our Netherworld Demon Sect."

"The forces of our Nether Demon Sect are divided into three factions, namely the sect faction, the aristocratic family faction and the demon clan faction."

"The sect is the largest faction and is jointly controlled by several elders from the Demon Sect. It is the final destination of most Demon Sect disciples."

"This faction is mostly maintained on a master-disciple relationship and covers a wide range of areas. It is a faction that has been passed down since the rise of the Demon Sect to this day."

"Of course, the sect's factions are mixed, and a lot of resources are gathered in the hands of those elders and the disciples behind them. Ordinary monks join them. Unless they are extremely talented, it is difficult to get ahead."

"The aristocratic family faction is the faction I belong to."

"This faction is controlled by the three major families of the Demon Sect, the Wu family, the Xiahou family, and the Mo family. It is currently led by my adoptive father, the third elder."

"Although the Aristocratic Family Faction does not last as long as the Zongmen Faction, it has also followed the Demon Sect's step-by-step development to this day, and holds a lot of power in the Demon Sect."

"The most important thing is that my family's faction has always been willing to be deficient rather than in vain. Unless someone as powerful as Brother Zhou is, they will basically not accept outsiders. With fewer people and more money, the individual strength is naturally much stronger than that of the sect's faction."

At this point, Wu Ning's mouth went dry and he drank all the spiritual wine in the cup before continuing.

"The last one is the demon faction."

"The so-called demon clan is the group of demons that have been hiding under our Netherworld Demon Sect since the decline of the demon clan. After such a long period of recuperation, the strength of the clan has returned to normal."

"Despite this, originally this faction was not conspicuous in my demon sect."

"However, perhaps everything must be reversed. In the past few thousand years, several geniuses have appeared among the demons one after another, and they have forcibly led the demons to occupy a certain position in our Netherworld Demon Sect."

Wu Ning's eyes flickered and he said slowly.

"Today, the sect's faction should occupy 40% of the Demon Sect's resources, and the aristocratic family and the Demon's Sect's faction should each occupy 30%."

"The three major factions have been at odds with each other, and they have been fighting openly and secretly for hundreds of years."

Zhou Yiqiao listened silently to Wu Ning's words and couldn't help but sigh that the disputes within a powerful sect like the Nether Demon Sect were much more intense than those of the ordinary Yanzhou Sect.

"Brother Zhou, don't worry. When you and I go to see your adoptive father, in the eyes of outsiders, it will be considered as joining my family's faction. With the sponsorship of my family's faction, those people won't dare to do anything to you."

After Zhou Yiqiao heard this, he was about to express his thanks again when a Demon Sect disciple suddenly returned to the wine shop.

"Senior Sister Xuanyun said that she wants to give us the target of the demon clan's attack this time, which is the treasure brought back from the Phoenix Pavilion, so that we can take it back to the Demon Sect and hand it over to the third elder."

Although Wu Ning is only a golden elixir, he is still the leader of this trial. Therefore, when the two discuss Tao these days, trivial matters come to their door from time to time.

"Well...since that's the case, let's go."

Wu Ning nodded and stood up.

"Brother Zhou, don't forget, tomorrow is the time for us to return to the Demon Sect."

Before leaving, Wu Ning reminded.

"Brother Wu, please rest assured, I will not delay this matter."

Zhou Yiqiao nodded slightly and watched the other party leave.

After several people disappeared from sight, he waited for the owner of the wine shop to invite him back to the store and gave him double the amount of spiritual stones before turning around and leaving.
