Chapter 213 Demon City
Zhou Chen had a fruitful harvest this time, with more than thirty fifth-grade demon patterns, but they are no longer useful now. However, there is a pretty good demon pattern among the fourth-grade demon patterns.

The fox-patterned chest has a fourth-grade mythical power of +120, and the magical power of extreme ice storm has no copy martial arts yet.

The moment he put it on, information about the extreme ice storm entered his mind. This is a martial art that combines extremely strong ice and wind attributes. After it is activated, it can form a giant tornado. The wind carries the power of extreme cold and can cause huge damage to the enemy.

Afterwards, Zhou Chen synthesized the remaining demon patterns. His luck was good as he used the remaining demon patterns to synthesize another demon pattern of mythical quality.

The fox pattern on the left leg has a fourth-grade mythical power of +120, and the power of divine power and holy light can copy martial arts without any skills.

This is a magical power similar to sublimation. Although it is not an offensive martial art, it can increase the attack power of all martial arts after use. It can increase by 40% before the demon pattern is strengthened.

This is much more powerful than giving an attacking magical power. Now the sublimation has been strengthened to eleven. After use, it can increase the power of martial arts by 66%. If this demon pattern can be strengthened to eleven, then it will be possible to compete with the third-grade warriors.

However, the fourth grade and the third grade are a watershed after all. Entering the third grade is equivalent to stepping into the upper third grade. The strength will definitely be much stronger than the middle third grade. He dare not make a conclusion without fighting.

The two fourth-grade demon patterns naturally brought him a set effect, directly increasing his skills by 150 years. At the same time, he also gained an additional magical power, the Extreme Ice Meteorite Kill, which was an extremely powerful martial art.

Now, four of the six demon patterns on his body are fox patterns. However, due to their different grades, the effects of the third and fourth patterns cannot be triggered, and only the effects of two patterns are triggered.

Afterwards, Zhou Chen continued to stay in the fox demon's room and decomposed all the unused demon patterns on his body. The decomposition of the fifth-grade demon patterns provided him with a large number of strengthening points. Zhou Chen used these strengthening points to strengthen the fox pattern on his left leg in one breath. After spending a large number of strengthening points, he finally strengthened it to eleven.

Looking at the remaining strengthening points, Zhou Chen did not choose to strengthen the other one to eleven, but chose to continue strengthening his left leg. He wanted to try to strengthen it to twelve to see if this twelve was any good. As a result, he failed more than ten times in a row.

I don't know if it was just my bad luck or if it was really that difficult, but it was not until the last time that I managed to strengthen him to level 12.

狐纹左腿+12（神通威力+4%，复制武技威力+4%）（四品神话功力+120+216，神通圣光之力+12复制武技御剑诀+12）。

Looking at the attributes of his demon pattern, Zhou Chen smiled. After strengthening to level 12, the power of holy light could directly provide him with 104% attack power after being unleashed.

By adding the sword-controlling technique to the demon pattern, Zhou Chen is now confident that he can compete with a third-grade warrior.

On the second day, Qiushan City was unusually peaceful, because the deputy city lord and the city lord had died one after another, and there were only a few fifth-grade monsters left. They were already unable to take care of themselves, so they would not care where the big devil Zhou Chen was or what he wanted to do.

Zhou Chen restrained his breath and wandered aimlessly in Qiushan City. From time to time, he used his Eye of Insight to check, but he did not find any prey that interested him.

However, I got a piece of news by accident. It turned out that the annual demon market of the Night Demon Country was about to open. This was somewhat similar to the ghost market of Da Xia. It sold some extremely precious treasures. Of course, there were also many fakes, so you had to keep your eyes open when buying.

The Monster Market will open in three days, and it will be located in the north of Qiushan City. Zhou Chen wants to go and take a look when he has nothing to do.

Time soon came to the night three days later. Just like the ghost market, a void crack appeared at the entrance of the demon market when the time came. People entering had to wear a mask provided by the demon market. After paying the entrance fee, Zhou Chen entered the so-called demon market with the mask. It is said that there is only one demon market in the entire Qiushan area, and there are many entrances to the demon market. Basically, there is an entrance to the demon market in every city.

In order to avoid being targeted by powerful monsters, Zhou Chen had already restrained his human aura before coming in, and replaced it with a monster aura.

The Monster Market is very big and contains many things, but they are all treasures that only monsters can use, and they are of no use to Zhou Chen.

Zhou Chen naturally would not buy it, and he discovered that the most popular sellers in this demon market were actually humans. They captured humans and brought them here to sell, and what they sold were all warriors with cultivation. Although their strength was not very strong, it was enough to shock Zhou Chen.

Not only that, those people are different from those outside the Monster City. They basically still have consciousness, unlike those people outside, who have long lost their human consciousness.

Their stalls were also where the most monsters gathered. Zhou Chen did not go up to ask about buying. After all, this was a monster market. If it were outside, he would consider rescuing them, but forget it here.

He wandered around inside for about three hours and finally stopped in front of an auction house. Seeing Zhou Chen passing by, the guy at the door immediately came forward and pulled him over, "Sir, would you like to come in and take a look? The auction is about to start."

Zhou Chen glanced at him and then walked in. Although one had to pay an entrance fee of one hundred taels to enter the auction house, which was a very high price, many people still entered.

This shows that the items being auctioned there will definitely not disappoint people. After entering, Zhou Chen found a seat and sat down. After waiting for a few minutes, the auction officially began. The first item to be auctioned was a mid-grade earth-level defensive magic weapon.

After using it, it can withstand a full-strength attack from a fourth-grade warrior. The defense is quite high. Zhou Chen originally wanted to take a picture of it.

But after listening to his introduction, I gave up the idea, that is, using this magic weapon requires consuming one's life as a price, or consuming the lives of hundreds of people as an offset.

Zhou Chen would definitely not be interested in this kind of treasure, but except for him, all the monsters present were crazy about it and finally bought it for 300,000 taels.

In addition to treasures, there are also humans as items for auction. Of course, they are not ordinary humans, but humans with special physiques, which are of great benefit to the cultivation of the demon race.

This time Zhou Chen made a bid. The starting price was five thousand taels, and Zhou Chen directly called out a price of thirty thousand taels. However, it was obvious that he was not the only one interested in such an item. However, Zhou Chen was determined to win it, and finally bought it at a price of five hundred thousand taels.

Five hundred thousand taels to buy a human life is too expensive for the demon clan. If it weren't for face, the big bosses of the demon clan might only offer a maximum of one hundred thousand taels.

Seeing that this item was sold at a very high price, the witch in charge of the auction showed an unconcealable smile on her face, but it was suppressed in an instant.

Then the auction lasted for more than an hour, and Zhou Chen did not continue to bid until the next item came on the market. Zhou Chen was finally tempted, because it was half a map, half of a map about Yin-Yang Mysterious Ice. Now Zhou Chen still had the other half in his hand, and to Zhou Chen, this map was extremely precious.
