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

Zhao Dingshi continued to introduce to Zhou Yiqiao and others the changes that had taken place in the immortal cultivation world near Lingjian Sect during the time they were away.

"While the three Daoists were recovering from their injuries in the Tijian Sect, the news that the main forces of the three major sects were annihilated in the secret realm spread quickly like a raging wind."

There was a barely perceptible excitement in Zhao Dingshi's tone.

"These three major forces have lost their backbone. While fighting among themselves, they have to narrow the scope of their control to ensure that they can retain enough power to defend the important resources of the base."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Yiqiao and his companions realized that the situation was developing so quickly that they had to take action as soon as possible.

Otherwise, once the three major forces have completely stabilized the affairs within the sect, it will be much more difficult for them to plunder enough resources from these puppet sects of Lingxiao Palace.

The three of them looked at each other, and Zhou Yiqiao made the suggestion.

"If the situation is exactly as Brother Zhao said, then our three suggestions are to attack as soon as possible to avoid any more trouble."

"But Brother Zhao is the host, so we will still follow your arrangements. I wonder what we should do next according to Brother Zhao's opinion?"

Zhao Dingshi smiled slightly and complimented.

"You fellow Taoists are indeed the chosen ones of heaven, with broad vision and a thorough analysis of the current situation."

"My Spirit Sword Sect's spies in the three major forces also sent back news a few days ago that the internal fights among the three major forces are about to be decided."

"We must take advantage of the last moment when the three major forces are busy with their own affairs and act quickly to strike at their vital points."

"Just now, Zhao was in the sect's meeting hall, discussing this matter with other senior leaders in the sect."

"Among the three major forces, the Bibo Mansion has only recruited female disciples over the years because of the mansion master who died in the secret realm. This has long caused dissatisfaction among the male cultivators in the nearby immortal cultivation world."

"After the civil strife, many people in the sect rebelled and joined forces with those disciples who were dissatisfied with the rule of the female cultivators, forming a considerable resistance force."

"The Bibo Mansion at this moment is our first target."

"Their defense system has been weakened due to internal strife, and their people are divided. This is the best time for us to seize their resources."

Zhao Dingshi's eyes flashed with wisdom as he continued.

"As for the other two sects, Yunyin Sect and Xuantian League, although they are also caught up in internal strife, it is more complicated in comparison."

"Because of the redistribution of cultivation resources within the Yunyin Sect, there are constant disputes between the various sects, and it is difficult to form a unified external defense line in a short period of time."

"As for the Xuantian Alliance, due to the defeat in the secret realm, a serious trust crisis has occurred within the elders' group. Many powerful figures have begun to secretly look for new allies. The entire sect is in a precarious situation."

"Our strategy is to start with the easy ones and then move on to the difficult ones. We will concentrate our forces to attack Bibo Mansion, quickly plunder its resources, and strengthen ourselves."

"At the same time, send elite disciples to infiltrate Yunyin Sect and Xuantian League to find and win over those forces or individuals who are dissatisfied with the current situation, laying the groundwork for future actions."

"Once the matter of Bibo Mansion is settled, we will decide based on the situation and deal with the other two major sects one by one."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Yiqiao and the others looked at each other and then nodded in agreement.

"Since the Spirit Sword Sect has already come up with such an advanced plan, we will fully cooperate and join in the great cause."

"Once you have sorted out the detailed information about the Spirit Sword Sect, we will set off immediately!"

Zhou Yiqiao and the other two made the final decision and quickly reached an agreement. A plan against the Bibo Mansion was officially launched.

......

The atmosphere in the main hall of Lingjian Sect was extremely depressing.

Sect leader Li Yuanba, a middle-aged cultivator with a bloated figure and a sinister face, was sitting in the main seat, with a gleam of jealousy flashing in his eyes from time to time.

He was originally a mediocre person in the Lingjian Sect, and only ascended to the position of Sect Leader by chance. He was inevitably dissatisfied with such a talented junior like Zhao Dingshi.

The spy conveyed to him every detail of the conversation between Zhou Yiqiao and others. After listening to it, he frowned and tapped his fingers on the armrest, making a rhythmic sound.

He had long been wary of Zhao Dingshi's sudden rise. Now that he had finally found an opportunity, he planned to take advantage of it to get rid of Zhao Dingshi and Zhou Yiqiao and four others.

"Master, Zhao Dingshi has reached a consensus on the alliance intention with the four new cultivators. Next, he will follow the plan of our Lingjian Sect and assist in the attack on Bibo Mansion."

Subordinate report.

Li Yuanba snorted coldly, a hint of cruelty flashing in his eyes.

"They want to use the power of my Spirit Sword Sect, so why can't I use them?"

"Pass the order down, continue to attack Bibo Mansion, but at the same time, release some information to me, so that Zhou Yiqiao and others can fight with Bibo Mansion and both sides will suffer losses."

The subordinates were stunned when they heard this. They didn't expect that the sect leader would treat the war between sects as a joke in order to weaken Zhao Dingshi's power.

"Master, is this too risky?"

"Zhao Dingshi has risen strongly in recent times and has accumulated a lot of prestige inside and outside the sect. If he senses our intentions, something unexpected may happen."

"Humph, you don't need to ask any more questions, just do it."

Li Yuanba waved his hand impatiently, and his subordinates had no choice but to accept the order and retreat.

Li Yuanba's gaze fell on a landscape painting in the center of the hall, and a hint of pride flashed in his eyes.

He has no lofty ambitions, but he has an almost obsessive obsession with the position under his butt.

In his opinion, the existence of Zhao Dingshi is the biggest threat to his position as the sect leader.

In terms of talent, reputation and popular support, Zhao Dingshi during this period was far superior to him.

Therefore, in order to maintain his position as the suzerain, he must nip this potential threat in the bud at all costs.

He stood up, walked to the window of the hall, looked at the scenery outside, and thought secretly in his heart.

He knew that Zhao Dingshi, Zhou Yiqiao and others were not easy to deal with, so he had to be careful and not let them notice any clues.

"Someone, go and invite Elder Feng and Elder Lei over, and tell them that I have something important to discuss with you."

Li Yuanba ordered in a deep voice.

Soon, two elders hurried into the hall. They were Li Yuanba's confidants and always obeyed his orders unconditionally.

"Master, are you looking for us?" asked Elder Feng.

Li Yuanba nodded and laid out his plan in detail.

"I plan to let Zhao Dingshi, Zhou Yiqiao and others take the lead in this operation, and we will sit back and reap the benefits."

"But in order to prevent Zhao Dingshi from getting suspicious, I need one of you to go with him as the vanguard. On the surface, you will give him full support, but in fact, you will secretly monitor him and look for opportunities."

"Elder Feng, you are very wise and resourceful. How about you take charge of this mission?"

As Li Yuanba spoke, his eyes were fixed on Elder Feng in front of him.

However, any discerning person could see clearly that if Elder Feng said no, he would probably face Li Yuanba’s thundering wrath in the next second.
