In a flash, Sword Qi crisscrossed the air, milky-white beams of Sword Qi more than one hundred feet long, more dazzling than the sun, piercing through the giant ape's body. In an instant, the giant ape's fur was sent flying. Thin lines of blood appeared on the giant ape's mountainous arm, and a putrid stench of blood spurted out from the wound.
Wang Chong did not stop, leaving afterimages on the giant ape's arms as he shot toward the ape's head.
"Eyes! Their eyes must be their weakness! "
In a flash, Wang Chong glanced up at the sky. Two scarlet eyes floated in the air like two giant lanterns. These were the eyes of the giant ape. Although the Arabs had used some kind of tough metal armor to cover the giant ape's head, the eyes could not be protected. This was the only place where one could attack the giant ape.
Roooar!
The giant ape bellowed, its scarlet eyes instantly focused on Wang Chong, who was on its arm and rapidly sprinting away. Even though all humans were like fleas to the giant ape, there was no doubt that the giant ape would remember this flea that had injured it. Boom! Without the slightest hesitation, the giant ape raised its other arm, spread open its fingers, and lunged at Wang Chong with lightning-fast speed.
Without the slightest hesitation, Wang Chong shot forward. By a hair's breadth, he had managed to pass through the giant ape's five fingers and shoot from its right arm to its left. Peng, his body leaped forward, and his speed did not slow down in the slightest. Like moving clouds and flowing water, he continued to charge along the surface of the giant ape's body toward its head.
As he sprinted forward, the WuZi Steel sword in Wang Chong's hand continued to unleash tens of thousands of bolts of Sword Qi that slashed at the giant ape's body.
Not even the ballistae of the Tang Dynasty could pierce through the giant ape's body, but it could not stop Wang Chong's Art of God and Demon Obliteration. But Wang Chong's weakness in his lack of cultivation was immediately exposed. If Su Zhengchen were to execute the Art of God and Demon Obliteration, he would definitely be able to severely injure the giant ape. However, Wang Chong was still far from reaching that level. With his current level of mastery, his sword qi could only penetrate several chi into the giant ape's skin before coming to a halt. It was simply incapable of penetrating the tough and resilient defense beneath the giant ape's skin.
Boomboomboom!
Although Wang Chong's constant barrage of Sword Qi had not heavily injured the giant ape, the stinging pain had successfully enraged the Consecrated!
The giant ape roared, its scarlet eyes reflecting Wang Chong's image, their depths brimming with savagery and a desire to destroy. Without the slightest hesitation, the giant ape's two hairy palms, brimming with astonishing power, lashed at Wang Chong like a torrential storm.
But at this moment, Wang Chong was like a leaf, completely unaffected by any force. Although the giant ape's attacks seemed fierce, they were never able to truly land a blow on Wang Chong. Wang Chong was getting closer and closer to the Behemoth's head. Just when Wang Chong was about to leap onto the giant ape's head, an invisible ripple suddenly swept through the air. A moment later, the situation changed.
Bang!
The giant ape, which had been in a frenzy and attacking like a headless fly, suddenly regained a sliver of calm in its eyes.
And then, the unthinkable occurred.
The giant ape clasped its palms together and heavily struck out. Roar! Accompanied by a world-shaking roar, a powerful shockwave spread out in all directions with the giant ape at the center. The destructive power contained in the shockwave was so strong that a circle of visible white ripples could be seen in the void, spreading rapidly in all directions from far to near.
"What's going on here?"
Wang Chong was flabbergasted. He had carefully observed this Behemoth before, and other than its astonishing strength, he had no other abilities. He had never imagined that just when he was about to leap onto the giant ape's head, this would happen.
The Behemoth possessed terrifying strength. As a top-class Vicious Beast, its strength was so immense that not even Great Generals could contend against it. Moreover, unlike the rhino-shaped Behemoth, the Destroyer, and the Terrorizer, the Consecrated was born in the form of a giant ape. Its arms were nimble, its body agile, and its fighting ability far superior.
The combined strength of Wang Chong and Gao Xianzhi had not been enough to stop an ordinary Behemoth, much less one of the top-class Behemoths of Arabia. Although the giant ape didn't use any Stellar Energy, its astonishing strength was enough to shatter the heavens and sunder the earth. Not even a top-class Great General could compare to it. Wang Chong still had not formed the Godking Yama, so he was even less capable of fighting back.
Thump! With no time to think, Wang Chong did a backflip and shot off the giant ape's body, landing on the ground. Bzzz! Wang Chong reacted quickly enough, but a white shockwave still brushed past him, clashing with Wang Chong's Stellar Energy.
Bang!
There was a massive explosion as Wang Chong's body trembled, the Stellar Energy around his body dimming, and his face paling. Bang! He was sent flying like a ragdoll.
"Marquis!"
On the ground, the expressions of Xue Qianjun, Sun Zhiming, Zhuang Bufan, and the others changed drastically when they saw this scene. All of them seemed as if they'd suffered a heavy blow, and their faces instantly turned pale.
Wang Chong was the leader of the army, the source of its morale. His injury was a massive blow to the army.
"Hurry, go save Marquis!"
Xue Qianjun and the others immediately rushed in the direction where Wang Chong had fallen. At this moment, the area around the giant ape had become a land of death. If one did not have enough strength, recklessly charging in would only result in death.
But they had no time to worry about such things.
But blessings did not come in pairs. Just as Xue Qianjun and the others rushed out, boomboomboom! At almost the same time, explosions rang out, accompanied by groans.
In the blink of an eye, Xue Qianjun subconsciously turned his head to take a look. He saw two god-like figures and a tall, thin figure being sent flying by an even stronger force.
"Lord Gao, Vice Protector-General Cheng, General Wang! … "
Cries of alarm rang out as Xue Qianjun and all the other Tang Dynasty soldiers who had seen this sight trembled in fear, their faces ashen.
Wang Chong, Gao Xianzhi, Cheng Qianli, and Wang Yan were the stabilizing pillars of the Tang Dynasty in Talas, the source of the army's morale. The reason the more than one hundred thousand Tang Dynasty soldiers had been able to maintain their composure in the face of a pincer attack and an unprecedentedly powerful foe was because of these four Imperial Great Generals.
But no one expected that all four of them would be injured at this time.
In a one-on-one fight, Wang Chong, Gao Xianzhi, or Cheng Qianli would find it impossible to stop the four Behemoths alone.
Roooar!
After sending four of the Tang Dynasty's best commanders flying, the four Behemoths were no longer hindered and smoothly charged into the Tang Dynasty's defense line. Boomboomboom! Dust churned as one heavy steel wall after another was pushed to the ground, and the shockwaves stirred up by the four Behemoths sent countless surrounding soldiers flying like they were made of paper. "Aaaah!" "Aaaah!" Screams filled the air, and the Great Tang had suffered grievous losses.
"Kill!"
The Arab soldiers were invigorated by this sight. These Arab soldiers had originally been following the Behemoths, keeping a certain distance from them, not daring to get too close. But when they saw this, they immediately changed their strategy. Separating the distance of more than one hundred zhang, they rushed past the Behemoths and into the Tang Dynasty's defense line.
"Release! Release! Release! "
The more than one thousand Tang Dynasty ballistae had originally been firing at the four Behemoths, but when they saw this sight, they paled and immediately adjusted their direction, shooting at the savage Arab soldiers beyond the defense line.
Swishswishswish! Each ballista bolt was like the scythe of the grim reaper, reaping the lives of seven or eight Arab soldiers. But no matter how powerful the Tang Dynasty ballistae were, they could not stop these red-eyed and murderous Arab soldiers. "Dalun Ruozan, Huoshu Huizang, it's about time for us to move out!"
On the high hills, Duwusili's hair blew in the wind as he gazed at the distant battlefield.
"The situation has changed. The Tang Dynasty won't be able to last past today. Now is the best time for us to strike!"
"The situation has changed. The Tang Dynasty won't be able to last past today. Now is the best time for us to strike."
Duwusili's eyes flashed as a majestic will to fight surged out of his body, stirring the air around him.
The strength the Arabs had displayed was simply too powerful. As a top-class Great General, Duwusili's desire to fight had also been stirred.
"Wait a little longer! There's no need to rush this matter. "
Dalun Ruozan shook his head and suddenly said. His eyes were still extremely calm as he looked into the distance.
"Abu Muslim and Ziyad have still not moved. Now is not the best time to strike. Wait a little longer. Wait until the Tang Dynasty has suffered grievous losses. At that time, it won't be too late for us to intervene! "
Duwusili said nothing, turning his gaze to Huoshu Huizang and Dusong Mangpoje. His expression was as calm as a statue, and his eyes were fixed on the same person. It was clear that he was following Dalun Ruozan's lead.
"Hmph!"
With a cold snort, Duwu Sili flew into the air, and before anyone could react, he was already riding his mighty Turkic steed toward the rear of the Great Tang army as if it were flat ground.
"Duwusili!"
Behind him, Huoshu Huizang and Dusong Mangpoje both grimaced at this sight, and they subconsciously called out to him. But Duwusili was so fast that in the blink of an eye, he had left a cloud of dust in his wake.
"There's no need to persuade him. Don't you see that he's alone? He didn't bring a single Turkic soldier with him."
