Chapter 1332: Chapter 1332
Its claws moved quickly, and time reversed once more, returning to the moment when the Scale Weight was falling in the air, and Owen Bertram was barely supporting it with his Ancient Sword.
Once again, everything was repeated. When Senior Elder fell into the ancient market, an old man appeared and negotiated the price with him. However, they did not trade immediately but instead invited a renowned and respected "Elder Witness" from the market. Transactions witnessed by this person would be granted more stringent rule protection.
Then, the transaction was completed, and the illusory market disappeared. Senior Elder still had twelve Shell Coins in his hand. However, this time when Senior Elder tried to pull the Shell Awl back using the Gourd Vine Immortal Rope, he found it restricted by some force and could not be pulled back. Senior Elder sneered and thought, "Brother, someone won’t let us brothers cheat in the transaction!"
Little Loach, eyes wide with anger, extended a whisker along the Gourd Vine Immortal Rope, found the Shell Awl, and regardless of the "rules," forcefully snatched it back!
The Dragon Corpse roared and rampaged in the sky above Radiance Ancient City. Senior Elder held the Shell Awl and laughed loudly, "Hahaha!"
A fissure appeared on the Scale Weight, the Ancient Sword injured the city wall, and Senior Elder paid the Shell Coins a second time. The Shell Awl completely collapsed the city wall. The Dragon Corpse then rewound the Sundial’s shadow in the bead...
Whoosh! Everything returned to that point in time again. However, the Dragon Corpse found itself at a loss. The Steelyard Treasure’s "fair trade" rule could not suppress the opponent. Then, a dark red radiance flew up from the cliff below; it was a pair of Cymbals, which the Dragon Corpse grabbed with its third claw.
The Sword Sheath crashed towards the Scale Weight from the side. The Dragon Corpse timed it carefully and threw a piece of cymbal. With a clang, the cymbals opened, covering the entire world. When it fell down, it engulfed the Sword Sheath inside!
The reason the cymbals trapped the Sword Sheath rather than the Ancient Sword is that the Sword Sheath did not have any powerful attack force. If they took the Ancient Sword, it might have broken free and escaped, but the Sword Sheath had no such risk.
Thus, Senior Elder had no choice but to engage himself, holding the Shell Awl and stabbing at the Scale Weight. That transaction still took place, witnessed by the "Elder Witness." The Dragon Corpse seized the opportunity, threw out the second cymbal, and with a boom, the cymbal flashed above Senior Elder’s head. Before Senior Elder could pull back the Shell Awl, the cymbal had trapped him underneath it!
Afterward, the Dragon Corpse sneered and stepped forward, urging the Scale Weight to suppress the Ancient Sword fully. Once the sword was subdued, it would collect the Sword Sheath and then go after Owen Bertram!
Owen Bertram was in the cymbal, surrounded by darkness and chaos; he could not discern directions nor locate the true body of the cymbal. Senior Elder recalled some classic battles: how did the Great Sage escape from that pair of cymbals? How did the Snake Demon and Scorpion Spirit break free from the Gourd?
Senior Elder released his brother: "Quick, bite!"
If he could bite through these cymbals, Elder Brother would be free. However, Little Loach yawned, and its mouth grew larger and larger, as if it wanted to swallow the sky and the earth. It did not care if chaos surrounded it—it was ready to swallow even the real Primordial Chaos!
The entire cymbal fell into Little Brother’s mouth. Senior Elder jumped out, pulled the Shell Awl back with a strong tug, then used the Shell Coin. He threw the Scale Weight away with the awl, and together with the Ancient Sword, they attacked Radiance Ancient City ferociously. The Ancient Sword’s light shot out for three thousand feet— Slaying the Dragon!
Gulp... the massive dragon head fell.
