Volume 3: The Sword That Shines on the Demon Clan Chapter 10: Heritage Consignment House
In the arena, demon essence stones are easy to obtain, but the storage ring that Wang Chen casually threw to Ximen Youqian is a rare item among the demon clan.
The demon race is powerful in combat, but they are obviously much weaker than humans in refining equipment. Just a storage ring like this is worth tens of thousands of demon yuan stones.
Not far away, Wang Chen found the entrance to the second-level fighting arena. It was a wide staircase that extended downward in a winding manner. The firelight from the lower level shone upward.
After checking Wang Chen's number plate, the bald demon who was in charge of guarding the entrance looked at Ximen Youqian in confusion.
"Who is this?"
"My brother." Wang Chen didn't even think about it.
"Yeah." The big man nodded.
"You can enter the second-level arena, but you must know that each contestant can only bring one servant into the higher-level area, and unless the servant also obtains the qualification to enter the next level, he cannot participate in the single-player competition. As for the team competition and the battle of kings, they are not included."
"If you need more servants, you can look for them in the advanced areas. As long as you can afford the price, I think there will be many monsters willing to do so."
"Thank you." Wang Chen took the number plate, nodded to the big man, and called the penguin to walk down the wide black stone steps together.
Servants can participate in team competitions, which is equivalent to encouraging team challenges. However, if servants with insufficient strength are allowed to fill in the numbers, whether it is a team competition or a battle of kings, it will be an act of cutting off one's own arms.
Not being able to participate in singles competitions is obviously a rule improvement from the perspective of preventing match-fixing.
Digesting the newly discovered information, Wang Chen came to the second floor of the arena.
The spiral corridor ahead did not seem dark at all because it was deep underground. Deep inside, various kinds of monsters could be vaguely seen.
This place is in a double ring shape, the stairs leading to the first floor are in the outer ring area, while the brightly lit and bustling place is the inner ring area.
In addition to the torches, here we finally saw the spirit stones embedded in the wall. They were of high quality and provided sufficient lighting.
However, in the demon clan’s territory, spirit stones are only used for lighting.
It was almost late at night and all the matches in the arena had ended.
The young geniuses who had finished a day's fighting relaxed at this moment, letting all things fall asleep. The time when night fell became the busiest time in the arena.
Various noises were heard, and the monsters were talking and laughing loudly, full of relaxed joy.
Walking into the inner ring, on both sides of the wide path built around it are various buildings in the rough style of the demon clan, brightly lit. In the widest area in the middle is the main building of the underground arena, which maintains the basic style of the upper level.
This is almost the same as on the ground, Wang Chen exclaimed.
Only at this moment did Wang Chen understand why the arena in Dongjing City was called the underground arena. The building complex in front of him could be called an underground city, and its scale was in no way inferior to the big cities on the ground. The dome was extremely high and there was plenty of light.
Being here, there is no sense of oppression as being underground.
Compared to the first layer, the monsters that roam here have a stronger aura than the first layer, and most of them have transformed into various human forms.
The demon race that regards roughness as beauty mostly transforms into a figure with muscular bodies.
His hair was disheveled, his face was ferocious, and his body was covered with scars.
This kind of shape can be considered majestic on a man, but many banshees also transformed into this type of shape, just like hairless gorillas, which made Wang Chen secretly shocked and unable to accept it.
The sound of footsteps hitting the ground became much lighter.
With so many monsters gathered together, even the air seemed to be filled with a strong murderous aura, making cute monsters like Ximen Youqian stand out from the environment and become extremely conspicuous.
Wherever they passed, demons would cast fierce glances at them from time to time.
The penguin looked straight ahead, but its body was obviously stiff. It quietly approached Wang Chen a few steps with its furry belly sticking out.
“Wow.”
At this moment, Xiaoyao, who was looking around excitedly, suddenly pointed to one side as if he had discovered a new continent. Wang Chen couldn't help but look.
I felt a sharp pain in my eyes, and then I saw a 3-meter-tall, muscular, bald female demon being hugged by a greasy-haired and powdered male demon dressed as a scholar and walking into an inn.
“It’s so terrifying!”
He took a deep breath, secretly startled, and looked around the inn secretly.
"Fortunately, it's not a wooden building like those in the cultivation world, otherwise it would have collapsed."
After walking along the circular avenue, I discovered that the arena had all kinds of facilities and shops.
There were even several inns, especially some dimly lit restaurants with various banshees standing downstairs.
They ranged in height from half a meter to five meters, with green faces and fangs or wrinkles all over the face and shifty eyes. Their appearance was seriously deviated from Wang Chen's aesthetic taste.
When the banshees saw Wang Chen coming, they all threw flirtatious glances at him, and some even used their long tails to quietly reach over from the ground and try to tickle him.
"Handsome boy, come and play~"
The sound like a breaking casserole came from a four-meter-tall banshee with a face shaped like a hippopotamus. She had a shy and charming look on her face, and stretched out her slimy tail to stroke Wang Chen.
Wang Chen almost couldn't hold back, and reflexively slashed at the tail with his sword.
"In short..." Wang Chen , who fled in concluded,
"As long as you have the demon stone, you can live here for a long time."
Before we knew it, the number of people gradually decreased, and we seemed to have arrived at the most remote corner of the circular avenue.
He looked at the pristine rocks ahead and was about to return the same way, but his ancestral energy suddenly began to throb.
Huh?
What could possibly cause a reaction from the ancestral energy in the area where the demon race lived? Wang Chen's heart moved, and he looked around.
There was a simple little house with the same bright light as other shops. On the hard stone above the eaves, a few large characters were carved crookedly: Consignment Office.
Following the light, Wang Chen walked into the consignment office.
There was a rough wooden counter, and inside stood a rat demon with all white fur on its body. He was wearing a long gown that was totally inconsistent with his identity as a demon. His cultivation was not high, and he had not even entered the Nirvana stage.
Strangely, the rat demon looked at Wang Chen, then lowered his head and looked at a piece of animal skin in his hand like an old scholar.
There is no enthusiasm for business at all.
Wang Chen didn't care about it and just looked around the store.
This sight made his heart skip a beat!
There are quite a few items on this counter that exude an aura of inheritance.
Just like the Six Paths Sword, many carriers of high-end inheritances are various magical weapons.
In other words, there are actually several inherited items in this counter.
If I absorb some of this inherited power, wouldn't I be able to expand my Qi sea and impact the realm of the seventh Nirvana?
Wang Chen was excited, but he remained calm. He slowly walked around the counter and then discovered something strange.
The items in the consignment office, as the name suggests, are things consigned by the second-level demon clan. If the transaction goes smoothly, the rat demon can naturally extract a certain proportion of demon yuan stones.
No wonder there are so few people here, the demons are simply unable to use these inherited items.
In addition to the inherited items, there are also some magical weapons that are obviously from cultivators, but they are all in tatters and several flying swords have long lost their spirituality.
He secretly counted the inheritance items here. There were four inheritance items in total: a broken sword, a seal, a bracelet, and a short stick.
Especially the broken sword, Wang Chen was sure that before it was broken, it was at least a high-level inheritance.
Looking at the prices again, the most expensive item is the short stick with the weakest inherited aura, which costs 4,000 Demon Yuan Stones, and the cheapest item is the broken sword, which only costs 2,000 Demon Yuan Stones.
Compared with the magic weapons used by the surrounding demon tribes which cost tens of thousands of demon stones, these inherited items that are enough to cause a bloody storm in the world of cultivation are simply cheap here.
