DF-21 medium-range ballistic missiles vs. a False Core cultivator

The sight of ten shooting stars streaking across the night sky greatly shocked the ordinary people in the border town.

Meteors, this strange phenomenon, also exist in this world.

But the appearance of ten at once is still surprising.

What surprised them even more was that these ten meteors were accompanied by a terrifying sound that seemed to tear the sky apart.

"Was that a shooting star? Why was it so loud?"

"I don't know! Could it be that some immortal cast a spell?"

"It must be a spell cast by a celestial being!"

"."

The ordinary people in the border town all knelt down and began to worship.

The immortals looked up to the visitors from the Painting Scroll World.

And then the unusual phenomenon of ten shooting stars appeared in the sky.

This led many ordinary people to believe that it might be the work of a deity.

Inside the imperial city of Da Yu, everyone was looking up at the sky.

Those inside the imperial city also saw the ten shooting stars flying in the sky, as well as the sonic booms coming from the heavens.

The guards patrolling the imperial city started discussing the shooting star as it flew across the sky.

"What's this?"

"Could it be that our ancestor has cultivated a new Divine Ability?"

"I don't know."

Many royal guards subconsciously assumed this was the work of their Great Yu ancestor.

Because the Great Yu Ancestor had triggered extraordinary celestial phenomena in his early years.

A rooftop in the imperial city of Dayu.

Ge Yunxuan and Uncle Yuan were standing here, both of them gazing at the strange phenomenon in the sky.

"Young Master, this is..." Uncle Yuan exclaimed in shock.

He was in the Foundation Establishment Middle Stage, but he couldn't tell what the points of light in the sky were because they were too far away.

Even Foundation Establishment Middle Stage's spiritual sense can only travel one kilometer, making it impossible to detect such a long distance.

Ge Yunxuan frowned:

"I can't figure out what this thing is either, but I have a bad feeling. Let's get out of here!"

Ge Yunxuan immediately piloted his Law Artifact and flew away into the distance, with Uncle Yuan following closely behind.

The two flew through the air, but their gazes remained fixed on the points of light in the sky.

Because the direction from which the light point flew was clearly the Imperial City of the Great Yu Dynasty.

"Could it be that a fake Core Formation cultivator is using great Divine Ability to prepare to deal with the Great Yu?" Uncle Yuan speculated.

In this situation, the only thing he could think of was a fake Core Formation cultivator using Divine Ability to deal with the Great Yu.

Ge Yunxuan shook his head and smiled:

"Uncle Yuan, even a pseudo-core cultivator couldn't pull off this kind of phenomenon. That point of light is incredibly far from the ground, and its speed..."

After speaking, Ge Yunxuan carefully observed the points of light in the sky; he indeed could not estimate the speed of those ten points of light.

Although it looks like it's flying very slowly in the sky, that's just a difference in perspective.

Ge Yunxuan had witnessed the power of a fake Core Formation cultivator before.

The only additional abilities a pseudo-Core Formation cultivator possesses compared to a Foundation Establishment at the Great Perfection stage are escape-light flight and protective spiritual light.

Divine Ability Technique Method and spells aren't that powerful; they simply couldn't possibly cause such a celestial phenomenon.

Located at the very center of the Dayu Imperial City is a towering mountain.

Dayu Peak is the location of the Dayu Imperial Palace and a host of immortal cultivation Lineage.

This is also a sacred place in Dayu.

The strange phenomenon in the sky had already alerted the cultivators within Dayu Peak.

The cultivators all flew out of their respective cave abode and looked towards the horizon.

The Foundation Establishment cultivators in the Elder Hall of the Great Yu Imperial Palace came out immediately.

They were all gathered together, their gazes fixed intently on the sky, a strange sight.

"Fellow Daoists, can you tell what is flying in from the sky?" a Foundation Establishment elder asked.

The Grand Elder of the Elder Hall said in a deep voice:

"It shouldn't be a flying Law Artifact, as flying Law Artifact can't reach this height, but this thing is clearly aimed at my Great Yu!"

"Should we activate the defensive formation?" another Foundation Establishment cultivator asked.

The Grand Elder said, "Let's wait for the Ancestor."

The Grand Elder had just finished speaking.

From deep within the Great Yu Imperial Palace, a streak of light shot out rapidly, quickly reaching a point a hundred meters above the palace.

An old man dressed in a loose black robe appeared from the light. There were also strands of spiritual light on the old man's body, which were the protective spiritual light unique to pseudo-core cultivators.

The old man had a broad face and large ears; simply standing quietly in the sky, he exuded an aura of majesty.

Upon seeing the old man, all the cultivators within Dayu Peak immediately bowed and paid their respects.

"We have met our ancestor!"

All the cultivators on Dayu Peak looked at the figure in the sky with awe.

Lin Li, the ancestor of the Great Yu, is their guardian deity.

Two hundred years ago, Lin Li had already advanced to the level of a pseudo-core cultivator.

Although a fake core is not as good as a true golden core, it far surpasses the Foundation Establishment and possesses some of the abilities of a golden core cultivator.

Lin Li, his gaze deep, looked at the distant points of light on the horizon and shouted:

"Who dares to offend our Great Yu!"

After Lin Li finished shouting angrily, he immediately transformed into a streak of light and flew towards the ten points of light in the sky.

The beam of light, carrying terrifying spiritual power, rapidly soared into the sky. In less than a moment, its speed had reached 500 kilometers per hour.

Everyone on Dayu Peak watched this scene with excitement.

The last time their ancestor made a move was fifty years ago.

Witnessing the power of a pseudo-core cultivator is of great benefit to the lower-level cultivators within the Great Yu Peak.

The way pseudo-Dan cultivators use Law Technique and fight is worth learning.

"Our ancestor is invincible!" someone shouted.

The cultivators from the other cultivation Lineage also shouted in response.

"Our ancestor is invincible!"

"Our ancestor is invincible!"

"Our ancestor is invincible!"

"."

At times like this, it's definitely time to flatter, even though I don't know what that thing flying in the sky is.

But with their ancestor's help, there's definitely no problem.

Furthermore, their ancestor rarely appears in the eyes of the world, so they naturally want to make a good impression now that they have the chance to see him.

The mortals and martial artists within the Great Yu Imperial City all witnessed the beam of light shooting into the sky.

Everyone was deeply shocked.

"Is this the legendary False Elixir Ancestor of my Great Yu?"

"I never imagined I'd live to see the Ancestor make a move."

"Is the Ancestor going to deal with the light spot in the sky?"

"."

Everyone in the Great Yu Dynasty was buzzing with discussion, their eyes glued to the sky, afraid to miss a single second.

Ge Yunxuan and Uncle Yuan, who were flying not far away, also stopped after seeing the appearance of the Great Yu Ancestor.

"Ancestor of the Great Yu, Lin Li!" Ge Yunxuan's face was filled with apprehension.

Lin Li's combat strength is among the top in the pseudo-core cultivators of the surrounding major countries.

Moreover, this person has exceptional talent; at only three hundred years old, he has already reached the Pseudo-Core Realm.

He can truly be called a legendary figure.

After advancing to the False Core stage, a cultivator's lifespan has already exceeded five hundred years, which still means that Lin Li has more than two hundred years of lifespan remaining.

Among the other major powers, Lin Li is the only one who is relatively young.

If Lin Li can cultivate to the point of perfecting the False Core stage, then he can venture into the endless seas and travel overseas to seek the true Dao.

"Young Master, it seems that the light spots flying in the sky are indeed preparing to attack the Great Yu Dynasty, given that the Great Yu Ancestor has made a move. But who is so bold as to dare to attack the Great Yu?"

Uncle Yuan began to speak.

Ge Yunxuan shook his head:

"I'm not sure, but these points of light could be Golden Core Law Treasure!"

Ge Yunxuan had already guessed that only this Golden Core Law Treasure could provoke the Great Yu Ancestor to take action.

In the air, Lin Li was rapidly heading towards the distant point of light.

As a pseudo-core cultivator, his spiritual sense range had already extended to ten kilometers.

But as he flew, he discovered that the points of light in the sky were far too distant.

At this moment, Lin Li's mind was filled with doubt.

He initially thought it was a fake Core Formation cultivator from another major power using Law Treasure to attack the Great Yu.

Now, seeing the distance between these points of light and Da Yu, he dismissed that idea.

He had never heard of any Law Treasure that could fly from hundreds of kilometers away to strike him.

Even spiritual consciousness couldn't control things that far.

While Lin Li was still pondering...

He suddenly realized that the point of light, which was hundreds of kilometers away from him just moments ago, had arrived above the capital of the Great Yu Dynasty in less than a short time.

Lin Li didn't have time to think further. At this moment, no matter what this thing was, his first priority was to stop the other party.

Lin Li patted his Storage Bag, and a long sword was taken out.

The aura emanating from this long sword clearly indicated that it was a Golden Core Law Treasure.

This is the secret Law Treasure that has been passed down through generations in their Dayu Kingdom.

Only a cultivator like him, who has reached the Pseudo-Core stage, can barely use it.

Lin Li stared intently at the point of light flying in from the distant horizon.

The first thing to arrive was the light at the very front, and it wasn't until it was ten kilometers away that his spiritual senses discerned what it was.

Lin Li never expected that the point of light would actually be a huge metal cylinder, which was over ten meters long.

He had never seen anything with such a peculiar shape.

The light was emitted from the tail flame ejected from the rear of this metal cylinder.

These metal cylinders were all far apart, but they all flew from the same direction: the Imperial City of Great Yu.

As the foremost metal cylinder drew closer, Lin Li finally realized the terrifying speed of these metal spheres.

This speed even exceeded the speed of his spiritual perception; it was simply terrifying.

The moment he sensed the metal cylinder, the first metal cylinder was already less than a kilometer away from him!

Even if Lin Li wanted to dodge now, it was too late; his escape light couldn't outrun the flying metallic sphere in front of him.

Lin Li immediately channeled his immense spiritual power into the Law Treasure in his hand.

The next moment, the Law Treasure released beams of white light.

These white lights converged in the sky to form the phantom of a long sword, hundreds of meters long.

"Cut!"

Lin Li slashed down at the incoming missile with his sword.

Although the strike was extremely fast, it almost missed.

The long sword phantom collided with the missile in an instant.

The missile exploded immediately after it touched the phantom of the long sword.

A terrifying explosion echoed across the sky.

A giant fireball appeared in the sky.

At the same time, terrifying shockwaves and thermal radiation spread across the sky.

Lin Li's expression changed instantly after feeling the shockwave from the explosion and the intense heat of the fireball.

A sense of crisis rose within him!

But the explosion happened so fast that he had no chance to dodge it.

He quickly circulated his spiritual power, and the protective aura on his body immediately shone brightly.

Flames and shockwaves engulfed him at that moment.

The protective aura of the pseudo-core cultivator began to melt immediately upon contact with the high-temperature flames of the explosion.

A look of horror appeared in Lin Li's eyes.

As the protective aura disappeared, Lin Li was also struck by the shockwave of the explosion and fell directly from the sky.

However, Lin Li, who was falling, had not yet had time to regain his balance.

He then noticed that the second missile was heading straight for his location.

Lin Li's face turned deathly pale instantly, and he quickly held the Law Treasure longsword horizontally in front of him.

The missile collided with him instantly.

The moment the missile struck his body, all of Lin Li's ribs shattered.

The force of that impact was truly terrifying.

His ribs protruded directly from his back.

Lin Li, pinned by the missile, was propelled dozens of kilometers through the air.

Faced with such terrifying speed, Lin Li had no way to fight back.

However, what made him even more desperate was...

He heard a beeping sound after the missile had been flying a distance overhead.

Immediately afterwards, the missile exploded in a horrific manner, just like before.

Lin Li's pupils suddenly contracted; his protective aura shattered, and he was utterly powerless to withstand the explosion.

"Aaaaaah!"

Lin Li's eyes bulged out as he frantically poured his spiritual energy into the Law Treasure in his hand.

The illusory image of the long sword materialized once more.

The explosion engulfed both the phantom of the longsword and him.

Lin Li was also blasted backwards.

It formed a parabola in the air and crashed directly into the residence of a cultivation Lineage on Dayu Peak.

Several houses collapsed, stirring up large amounts of smoke and dust.

This scene left everyone on Dayu Peak, who were shouting that their ancestor was invincible, completely stunned, and everyone fell into silence.

What did they see?

Our ancestor was actually blown away!

On the ground, Lin Li struggled to crawl out of a pile of ruins, his appearance utterly miserable.

His whole body was as black as charcoal.

His clothes and hair were all burned off, and blood was flowing from his body.

His spiritual energy had been almost completely depleted, and he was no longer able to use his Law Treasure.

But Lin Li couldn't care less about his injuries at the moment; he quickly looked up at the sky.

Suddenly, the flight paths of those cylinders in the sky changed.

The remaining eight missiles all began to follow different flight paths, flying straight towards various parts of Dayu Peak.

The DF-21 ballistic missile has an advanced guidance system. When its internal sensors detect an intercept target, it will automatically maneuver and change course to evade interception.

The first two missiles to arrive were blocked by Lin Li because the sensors did not detect them.

After all, the DF-21's guidance system did not detect that someone would be intercepting it in the air.

But after two consecutive explosions...

The guidance systems of the remaining DF-21s also detected an intercept target and began to automatically change course.

Lin Li was horrified when he saw the missile's ever-changing flight path.

These metal cylinders are not only incredibly fast, but they can also alter their flight path.

Even if he had someone use Law Technique to attack, it would be impossible to hit them under such circumstances.

Lin Li immediately shouted:

"Quickly, activate the protective array!"

Lin Li's voice, imbued with spiritual energy, traveled extremely far.

The cultivators inside Dayu Peak also snapped out of their daze at Lin Li's shout.

What they just witnessed was truly shocking.

Their invincible ancestor was actually blasted away.

The power of the explosion in the sky, in particular, filled the cultivators with fear.

Upon hearing Lin Li's words, the Foundation Establishment cultivators in the Elder Hall immediately activated the protective array of the Great Yu Imperial Palace.

This protective array is a grand array passed down from the ancient times of the Dayu Dynasty.

Each activation consumes a large number of Spirit Stone.

However, this grand formation can withstand attacks from Golden Core cultivators and is the foundation of the Great Yu Dynasty.

As the formation was activated, countless rays of light began to rise within the Great Yu Imperial Palace, covering it with a barrier of light.

At that moment, eight DF-1 missiles arrived over Dayu Peak.

Three of the eight missiles flew straight toward the Great Yu Imperial Palace.

The remaining five changed course in the air and flew towards the residence of the immortal cultivation Lineage on Dayu Peak.

The three missiles that flew towards the Dayu Imperial Palace were the first to arrive, and they exploded the instant they touched the great formation.

The terrifying shockwave from the explosion caused the entire formation to tremble, and the light from the formation dimmed considerably.

The members of the Great Yu royal family inside the palace stared in utter horror at the terrifying explosion in the sky.

They didn't feel the impact of the explosions in the distant sky so deeply before.

But the explosion that occurred outside the great formation made the royal family realize just how terrifying it was.
