Boom! Boom!
As soon as the Stone General's fist landed, another fist smashed into the rhino-shaped Behemoth's head. In a short period of time, the Stone General had unleashed at least five or six punches, each one incomparably heavy and powerful. This was the strength of a martial artist, something that no Behemoth could compare to.
But the Behemoth's counterattack was also extremely fierce. With a swing of its massive golden horn, it smashed into the Stone General. Boom! With an earth-shattering boom, the Stone General that Huang Botian had created with the combined strength of six people was smashed into pieces by the Behemoth's overwhelming strength. The six people were sent flying like cannonballs along with countless rocks.
Fwoosh!
Huang Botian was still in the air when his body trembled and he vomited a mouthful of blood.
"Too powerful!"
In the air, Huang Botian's lifeless eyes were wide open, his face pale as he felt a deep sense of despair. The Stone General that he had created with the combined strength of five people was like a scarecrow in the face of the Behemoth's terrifying strength. It wasn't even on the same level.
"Milord, I've already done my best. You can only rely on yourselves now! "
As this final thought flashed through his mind, Huang Botian fainted.
"General Huang!"
Cries of alarm rang out from the ground. This had all happened too quickly. From the moment Huang Botian had gathered everyone's strength and used the evolved Stone General to being sent flying by the Behemoth, not even a second had passed. Not even Wang Chong had been able to react, let alone the others.
"Someone, hurry and save General Huang and the others!"
"Yes!"
Before Wang Chong had even finished speaking, Xue Qianjun had already leapt forward, leading several other elites in the direction that Huang Botian and the others had been sent flying. But this was only the beginning of their crisis. The Behemoth, enraged by the Earth Caving Art, roared, its eyes bloodshot as it charged at them with astonishing speed.
Fifteen hundred feet, four hundred feet, three hundred feet …
In a short period of time, the Behemoth was less than a thousand meters from them. This was much faster than it had ever been. The four huge stone pillar-like beast legs were constantly raised, flipped in the air, and stomped down at an extremely fast speed. Every single time, it was like stepping on the bottom of everyone's hearts, and it caused an enormous tremor and rumbling that seemed like the earth was splitting and mountains were collapsing.
"Phew!"
The wind howled, and sand and stones flew in the air, filling the entire defensive line. The giant beast's body could be clearly seen in the sand and dust. Its huge horn seemed to pierce through the sky, and its scarlet, disdainful eyes made everyone shudder. The battle was on the verge of breaking out. Everyone held their breath. The atmosphere was suffocating.
No one had the time to think about the danger or the problem of escape. Countless gazes from all directions were focused on the huge beast.
Two thousand feet!
The distance between them was closing!
"Ballista troops! Get ready! "
A calm and determined voice resounded over the entire defense line. Wang Chong stood on the steel wall, his hair fluttering in the wind, his eyes unprecedentedly focused. Clang! With a flash of cold light, Wang Chong raised his long sword at an angle, reflecting bursts of light under the sunlight.
Creakcreak!
Countless ballistae creaked from behind the defense line!
This was Wang Chong's first time personally commanding a ballista army. In a flash, three thousand ballistae had lined up at the gap in the defense line, their pitch-black bolts aimed at the area beyond the defense line. All the ballistae of the Qixi Protectorate had been brought out to participate in this battle between the humans and the Behemoth.
On the other side, several hundred ballistae of the Anxi Protectorate army had been pulled out, their bolts aimed at the Behemoth.
One of the greatest problems with ballistae was their accuracy, but against such a massive target, there was no chance of them missing.
With the appearance of more than 3,000 ballistae, the entire battlefield was silent. Even time seemed to have stopped at this moment.
Everyone's hearts were thumping in their throats.
The ballistae were the strongest weapon of the army, the final trump card. Whether it was in terms of sharpness, strength, or destructive power, they were far beyond that of ordinary bows and arrows. In dealing with the Behemoth, this was the last resort. If not even the ballistae could deal with it, then the entire army would find it very difficult to threaten it.
One hundred zhang!
There was only a distance of 300 metres between them. Even Gao Xianzhi revealed a nervous expression. If they could not stop this Behemoth, the one hundred thousand soldiers of the Tang Dynasty would be completely wiped out and destroyed at Talas. Behind them, Anxi, Qixi, and even Longxi would all fall.
"Release!"
As countless nervous gazes watched, Wang Chong swung down his trademark WuZi Steel sword. At this moment, the entire world fell silent.
Bang!
The moment Wang Chong swung down his arm, more than three thousand ballistae, more than three thousand sharp and indestructible ballista bolts, howled through the air like dragons emerging from the sea, into the Behemoth's body.
Hong, a thick and long crossbow bolt violently shot into the beast's body, leaving a thick, bloody hole. In an instant, it disappeared into the beast's body. However, this was only the beginning. Following that, the second, third, fourth … Not a single one of the more than 3,000 huge black crossbow bolts bounced off. All of them sank into the behemoth's body, leaving more than 3,000 huge, bloody holes that looked like honeycombs on its body.
Awooo! "Ahhh!"
The Behemoth, which had always seemed invincible and capable of destroying the world, suddenly howled in pain. For the first time, it had been wounded. Even this mythical Behemoth had finally been wounded in the face of the Tang Dynasty, an important weapon of the Central Plains.
"How could this be!"
At this moment, even the distant Behemoth Army Commander Masil couldn't help but reveal a hint of shock. This was the first time since the establishment of the Behemoth Army that he had ever seen an empire use ordinary war machines to wound this Behemoth that could destroy an entire country.
Bang!
Behind the second line of defense, an earth-shattering cheer of excitement burst out. The three thousand ballistae and three thousand heavy weapons had finally dealt a painful blow to the Behemoth.
"Release!"
Without the slightest hesitation, Wang Chong swung his sword and gave the order to fire once more.
Boomboomboom! The 3,000 ballistae fired once more, sending more than 3,000 ballista bolts howling into the Behemoth's body.
"Release!"
In the blink of an eye, a third volley of ballista bolts had sunk into the Behemoth's body. The excitement of the army reached a crescendo, their cheers soaring into the heavens. But Wang Chong quickly sensed that something was wrong.
After three volleys, more than ten thousand ballista bolts had sunk into the Behemoth's body. Although the Behemoth's body had swayed a few times and its momentum had clearly been hindered, the Behemoth had not collapsed. Moreover, despite its injuries, the Behemoth was still advancing toward the defense line.
Wang Chong could still sense an extremely dense and vast vitality from its body.
This was not the appearance of a Behemoth on the verge of collapse!
"Not good! Tenth unit, fifteenth unit, seventeenth unit, twenty-eighth unit … all of you, fall back! "
Wang Chong's shrill roar echoed over the army.
"Lord Protector-General, General Cheng, Father … prepare to move out!"
The Behemoth's vitality was far too powerful. Ten thousand ballistae were enough to sweep through fifty to sixty thousand soldiers, but they were still not enough to deal a fatal blow to the Behemoth. Although it had been injured and its speed had slowed, it was still advancing.
Hong, a gigantic foot descended from the sky and landed on the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust into the air. Fifty zhang …
It was getting closer and closer!
Thirty zhang!
They were less than one hundred meters from the Behemoth, and when they looked up at it, all of them felt truly petty and insignificant. Compared to the vitality of a Behemoth, the vitality of a human was far too weak. Not even a peak Saint Martial Great General could compare to this Behemoth.
Boom! Before anyone could react, the Behemoth's foot swept across a section of the steel wall. With a metallic clatter, the steel wall that four or five Arab armies would find it very difficult to topple was uprooted and sent tumbling through the air by a mountain-toppling force.

"Ah!"
With a scream, ten-some Great Tang cavalrymen failed to dodge in time and were sent flying along with their horses by the wall of steel. But this was not the end. In the blink of an eye, another enormous foot descended from the sky, but this time, it did not strike the steel wall, but the dense ranks of the Tang army.
Boom! Twenty-some Ferghanan mercenaries and Qixi Protectorate army soldiers didn't even have a chance to make a sound before they were crushed into metal pancakes.
"Damn it!"
Wang Chong paled at this sight, his eyes turning red. The Behemoth's body was simply too massive, and each step covered an enormous distance. Even though Wang Chong had been prepared, he still could not stop the Behemoth.
"Godking Yama Formation!"
In the time it takes for a spark to fly off a flint, there was a flash of light, and a huge four-armed god with a ferocious expression suddenly rose from the ground. As soon as it appeared, two mountain-shattering iron fists immediately landed on the giant beast's body. At almost the same moment, Gao Xianzhi, Cheng Qianli, Wang Chong's father Wang Yan, Banahan, and the experts of the army began to move.
"Six Ultimate Majesties God Art!"
"Supreme Desolation God Formation!"
"Mighty Miracle God Formation!"
"Great Fire Crow Art!"
