859 The Scaling Ladder Rare Treasure

“Only the gazes of millions of people can fill my empty heart and soul.”

Young Master Xu Kong was enjoying himself as he muttered, “This is the praise and glory that I deserve. Without the admiration of these gazes, when will my emptiness be filled?”

He felt that it was worth it this time. He had only killed a War Giant Beast, but he had obtained something that he had never been able to obtain. It had caused his identity and status to undergo a world-shaking change.

In the past, he was just a common cultivator in the eyes of everyone. Perhaps, he was a rich cultivator. But now, he was a Human race powerhouse who could stand up for and protect countless humans as well as the Kingdom of Dawn in times of danger.

!!

The difference between the two was like heaven and earth.

This was what he wanted.

“Is this guy in the mythical realm or the divine realm?”

Li Xiang’s eyes narrowed slightly. Young Master Xu Kong had only revealed his sword control technique, but he still did not reveal his cultivation realm. It was difficult for people to figure it out. However, he was certain that his cultivation level was at least the mythical realm. As for whether he had reached the divine realm or not, he still had to observe.

“Trash!”

When the Behemoth King saw the War Giant Beast on the ground, the anger in its heart could be imagined. This was the trump card that it had spent countless resources to nurture, but now it was dead! It had originally wanted to see it display its might and be invincible, but it did not expect to see its death instead.

This was too embarrassing. It thought that he could charge forward and establish its might in front of others. It did not expect that its enemy had established his might instead. It was like a clown!

However, it knew very well that it wasn’t that the War Giant Beast was useless. It was just that the two battle swords were too terrifying. They could directly attack the soul and destroy it. This method was extremely strange and impossible to guard against.

It wasn’t that the War Giant Beast wasn’t strong enough, but that the two swords were too powerful. They had found the War Giant Beast’s weakest point.

As a result, the other three War Giant Beasts did not dare to approach the Great Wall of Iron Blood anymore. If they were killed, it would be a huge loss.

Although the War Giant Beast had a huge weakness, it was extremely rare to have a method that could directly attack the soul. The War Giant Beast could not be used here, but it could be used elsewhere. It had to be flexible.

Every War Giant Beast was extremely precious and required countless resources to nurture. No matter what, they couldn’t allow any more problems to happen. If all of them died here, it would be a huge blow to the strength of the entire Behemoth race. Their prestige would also be weakened.

“Hmph! Do you think that you can rest easy after killing a War Giant Beast? Do you think that I have no other methods? Today, I will let you know that even the unbreakable city wall can still be broken. Since I can’t break it, then I’ll charge up and kill our way into the city from the city wall.” The Behemoth King snorted.

It had made ample preparations for this war. It did not have the slightest intention of underestimating the Human race.

With a wave of its hand, a white light flashed, and a strange chariot appeared on the battlefield.

As soon as the chariot appeared, it rapidly enlarged and became extremely huge. There were wheels under the chariot, and the body of the chariot was triangular. On top of it stood a huge ladder. This ladder was like a set of stairways. It was made of stone slabs, connected into a stairway.

This was not a common ladder, but a ladder with steps.

Moreover, it could be seen as a huge longboard. The longboard stood diagonally and naturally emitted strange Qi dynamics. It gave people the feeling that they could climb up the sky and reach the high ground in front of them.

“A rare treasure, Ladder Truck?”

Li Xiang’s eyes narrowed. He didn’t expect Behemoth King to have so many treasures. This was another rare treasure, and it was even a rare ladder used to attack cities.

Speaking of scaling ladders, almost all of the Chinese descendants knew about it.

Before the integration of the myriad worlds, scaling ladders were a type of climbing tool in modern times. They were mainly used for firefighting and emergency rescue purposes. In ancient times, they were war machines used to climb over city walls and attack cities.

In ancient times, a scaling ladder had wheels at the bottom and could be pushed forward, so it was also known as a “ladder truck”. It was equipped with shields, winches, grappling hooks, and other equipment. Some of them were equipped with lifting equipment with wheels. The ladder was invented by Gongshu Pan, a skilled craftsman of the State of Lu during the Spring and Autumn Periods. At that time, King Hui of Chu ordered Gongshu Pan to create the first ladder in history to achieve his goal of becoming a hero.

Xu Shen’s note in “Huainanzi Military Strategy Xun” said that the scaling ladder could stand against the clouds, so it could overlook the enemy’s city. It explained that the ladder could be used to spy on the enemy’s situation from afar.

Scaling ladders would be built whenever one wanted to attack a city.

Only with a ladder could one quickly climb up the city wall. Otherwise, one could only break through the city gate. For example, the Great Wall of Iron Blood forbade flying. Under normal circumstances, even cultivators could not easily cross it. The case would be different when there was a ladder. One could climb up the ladder and kill one’s way up the city wall.

Even if the effect of the ladder being targeted would be extremely terrible, it was still a shortcut to the target.

Since the Behemoth King could take out a ladder truck, one could tell that it was long prepared. It meant that this guy had been coveting and hostile to the Human race for a long time. It also proved that the so-called revenge for its son was just a pretense.

“Do you want to attack the city wall with a ladder? Dream on!” Zhou Qing sneered.

The scaling ladder was very useful when attacking a city, but the problem was that if there was only one, it would be useless.

It was like a thousand troops crossing a single-plank bridge. If countless enemies were staring at you and attacking you at any time, then this single-plank bridge would be a dead end. It was meaningless.

The Behemoth King seemed to have seen through the thoughts of the Human race powerhouse. A cold smile appeared on its face as it said coldly, “A ladder? Hehe! One ladder naturally won’t solve the problem, but what if there are a hundred or a thousand? Won’t that change the outcome of the battle?”

“Hmm? That’s impossible!” Zhou Qing’s expression changed slightly. He did not believe that hundreds or even thousands of such rare treasures would appear. The World Laws would never allow such a thing to appear in a large number.

“Refine the clouds and forge the ladder!” The Behemoth King sneered and ignored Zhou Qing’s doubts.

With a shout, the ladder truck flashed and emitted a powerful devouring force. The clouds in the void poured down at a visible speed and gathered towards the Ladder Truck.

As they gathered, the ladder on the ladder truck flickered with a strange white light.

In the white light, the ladder on the Ladder Truck was like a mold. After devouring a large number of clouds, a new ladder was condensed at a speed visible to the naked eye. It flew into the air and quickly extended. One end appeared on the battlefield, and the other end appeared on the Great Wall of Iron Blood. It then fell with a bang.
