Star-Moon Formation

(Please vote!)

Firstly, the Purple-Winged Heavenly Lion King did indeed want to leave Quyin Mountain, since it was impossible for it to break through the Demon-Sealing Formation on its own. Secondly, it naively believed that Li Wei's words were just a test for it. How could someone more powerful than the great immortal in front of it exist?

Li Wei, of course, had no idea what the fat lion was thinking. He did have some extra Yellow Paper on him, but he didn't know if he could take such a demon out with him.

Soon, Li Wei realized that his worries were unnecessary. After the Cripple, Qingxu, and the Purple-Winged Heavenly Lion King signed their names, the two put away the Yellow Paper. Li Wei didn't delay and directly led them away from the mission world.

The first thing Li Wei did upon returning to Earth Star was to summon his trusted confidants, including An Hei and Zheng Yutong, to discuss their next steps. With Qingxu's involvement, a problem that had troubled Li Wei for a long time was finally solved.

That is the problem of star field defense.

"I know of a formation called the Star-Moon Formation, which can protect the various star regions you mentioned. When it does, a formation restriction will be generated outside the star region. Without the corresponding method, no matter how powerful someone is, they will not be able to enter. If they try to force their way in, they will trigger the killing formation within the formation. Even an expert of your level, Li Wei, will definitely not fare well!" Qingxu Array Immortal said confidently. This was his pledge of allegiance after joining Li Wei, so he directly brought out his trump card formation.

Li Wei was very pleased with this pledge of allegiance. If he could set up such a grand formation in all the star regions under his jurisdiction, neither Mordor nor Pluto King would be able to lay a finger on his territory.

Li Wei decided to take charge of setting up the grand formation as soon as possible. So over the next few days, a large amount of materials needed for the formation were continuously sent to Earth Star, where Qingxu would refine them using formation power. Once everything was ready, Li Wei took Qingxu to various star regions to set up the grand formation.

Meanwhile, the upgrade of Shadow Street continued uninterrupted. By this time, Li Wei had upgraded Shadow Street on Earth Star to level 21. Li Wei and his companions had also experienced a forced mission, the one with an incredibly high difficulty level. Li Wei nearly died after choosing the highest difficulty mission in level 21 Shadow Street. If he hadn't had the Rule Codex on hand and been able to temporarily adjust the difficulty, Li Wei probably would never have returned. This incident made him much more cautious about future missions, at least he wouldn't choose the highest difficulty mission without preparation.

After more than ten days, Qingxu's 'Star-Moon Formation' was completed. This star domain array directly included seventeen star domains of varying sizes, including Earth Star, Kai Star, Werewolf Star Domain, Ghost King Star Domain, Blood Clan Star Domain, and Infinite Starfield. Thus, the star domains belonging to Li Wei were integrated in offense and defense, forming an impregnable formation.

While Li Wei's side was developing rapidly, Pluto King was not to be outdone. Relying on his and the Head Monster's formidable combat power, he had already taken over more than thirty star regions. Meanwhile, the Main God of Main God Mordor, was naturally well aware of the development of these two forces, but strangely, Mordor did not take any action.

Shadow had previously analyzed that Mordor might not have recovered to his peak condition, and Li Wei's unexpected breakthrough to the Star King level disrupted Mordor's revenge plan. With Pluto King, the Head Monster, and Li Wei, three Star King level powerhouses, even Mordor was wary of them, not to mention that the other party also possessed spatial power that could rival his Time Power, especially the Rule Codex, a heaven-defying treasure that had now fallen into Li Wei's hands. If a conflict were to occur, the outcome would be decided between the two.

Of course, these weren't the only things that distracted and troubled Mordor. The Godslayer Alliance was far more terrifying and troublesome than the two major forces of Li Wei and Pluto King.

When An Hei brought its contact with the Godslayer Alliance to the forefront, Li Wei suddenly remembered this powerful force hidden in the shadows. He himself had previously been in contact with members of the Godslayer Alliance; one could imagine that a force capable of contending with the Main God Mordor for so long was no ordinary entity.

An Hei was indeed a very capable person, at least, an assistant who saved Li Wei a lot of trouble. He placed a thick stack of documents in front of Li Wei and simply said, "The information about the Godslayer Alliance is all on here!"

Li Wei flipped through it and was immediately impressed by An Hei's intelligence gathering capabilities. Now that the seventeen star regions under his control had been integrated, they were like a super-large empire and Alliance, with countless capable people under his command. It would be very easy for An Hei to find spies to infiltrate enemy forces.

"Our people have just been infiltrated into the Godslayer Alliance. It's safe to say that this force is far larger than we imagined. They directly or indirectly control even more star fields than the Main God Mordor, and they have tens of thousands of S-level experts, hundreds of S9-level experts, but only three or four Star King-level experts..."

Upon hearing the information about An Hei, Li Wei couldn't help but gasp. Such strength definitely surpassed his own, and even Pluto King and the others couldn't compare. No wonder they were able to contend with the Main God Mordor for so long.

"Have they noticed us?" Li Wei wondered.

An Hei smiled slightly and pointed to the bottom of the pile of intelligence. Li Wei looked closely and was shocked. It listed the spies of the Godslayer Alliance had infiltrated his territory, including their combat strength and current identities. This horrified Li Wei. Of course, what shocked Li Wei was not the spies themselves, but An Hei's abilities.

"This guy's greatest strength isn't in face-to-face battles, but in the behind-the-scenes competition. His leadership, reasoning, analysis, and planning are all impeccable. Having him help me is truly my good fortune!" Li Wei couldn't help but exclaim.

"How should we deal with the Godslayer Alliance?" Li Wei wanted to hear An Hei's opinion. The other party had prepared such detailed intelligence, so they obviously already had a plan.

As expected, An Hei didn't hesitate, stating expressionlessly, "Of course, we should win them over, ideally forming an alliance. By uniting our forces and utilizing all available resources to eliminate our common enemy, we can then check and balance each other. At that point, whoever has the strongest fist will rule! They clearly share this plan. After all, if they could defeat the Main God alone, they wouldn't have waited so long. We currently have no advantage, but we are a crucial link in bringing Mordor down from his pedestal. The same applies to Pluto King and his forces. We need to leverage other powers and develop slowly to achieve our invincibility. Furthermore, I've discovered some intelligence regarding the Main God Mordor, but it hasn't been confirmed yet. I'll inform you later!"

Li Wei nodded; he had gained a new understanding of An Hei's intelligence capabilities today.

After emerging from the city lord's hall, Li Wei leaped into the Chang Kong. The Three Heroes City lay beneath him. After so much development, this enormous city had expanded several times over, its grounds densely packed with houses. Having unified seventeen star regions, the streets were teeming with strange races of people, resembling a scene from a science fiction movie Li Wei had once seen, where various aliens gathered together.

Looking back now, these aliens are just people from other star systems. The only difference is that back then, this scene only existed on the screen, but now it has become a reality.

The place Li Wei was heading to was the location of a spy from the Godslayer Alliance, according to intelligence gathered by the An Hei Alliance. The spy's identity was the head of a merchant guild.

Chambers of commerce have existed for a long time. They buy and sell all kinds of daily necessities. It can be said that they deal in any kind of commodity. Just like there are creatures in some star systems that can be ridden, just like rare delicacies that grow in the deep sea of some star systems, and just like armor that can be worn as clothes, automatically turning into armor as hard as steel when fighting.

It is precisely because of the numerous chambers of commerce that Three Heroes City has achieved its current prosperous state.

Li Wei hadn't been out on the streets for a long time, and what he saw now astonished him. Many people on the streets were riding on some kind of planktonic organism. These planktonic organisms varied in size, resembled jellyfish, and floated in the air, carrying people and goods back and forth.

Li Wei inquired and learned that this was a recently popular mode of transportation. Of course, there was a price to pay for it, and it was said that only one merchant guild in the entire Three Heroes City sold it.

As luck would have it, the spy Li Wei was looking for belonged to this very chamber of commerce.

Inside a building over ten meters tall, a somewhat obese man sat in a chair. Unbeknownst to most, this unassuming man was the head of a vast merchant guild. Having finished his business, he locked the doors and windows and secretly took out an ancient bronze cauldron. He poured water into the cauldron, then, seemingly using some kind of magic, caused ripples to appear on the previously calm water, revealing a blurry figure.

"Number 37, is there any unusual activity on Earth Star?" A voice came from the figure on the water, and its somewhat deep tone was truly eerie.

The obese man replied respectfully, "Envoy of the Shadows, Earth Star has recently annexed several more star regions, bringing their total to seventeen. Furthermore, they have set up a large array around these seventeen star regions. Further details require further investigation..."

"Yes, well done. I already know that. Has Li Wei's strength changed?" the person called Shadow Envoy continued to ask.

"If you want to know my strength, wouldn't it be better to just ask me?"

Just as the obese man was about to answer, a voice suddenly rang out behind him.
