Chapter 171 Star Guardian Formation

I don’t know how long it took, the night became darker and darker, and in the silence, an ominous black fog quietly emerged, like a ghost in the night, wandering silently above the courtyard.

This black fog exuded a strange aura, containing indescribable malice and danger. It was obviously looking for the right opportunity to launch a fatal attack on Shen Li.

However, in this crisis-ridden moment, Xinghan remained highly alert. His eyes were like torches, penetrating the darkness and locking onto the moving black fog.

He knew that Shen Li was in a critical stage of meditation at the moment, and any external interference could cause her immeasurable harm. Therefore, he had to step forward and protect this tranquility and safety.

Just when the black fog was about to approach Shen Li and attempt to launch an attack, Xinghan's palm suddenly waved, as if creating a crack in the void.

Immediately afterwards, a dazzling star light burst out from his palm and quickly condensed into an indestructible star protection shield, wrapping Shen Li tightly inside.

This star protection shield emits a soft yet firm light, keeping out all evil and danger.

The moment the black fog touched the protective shield, it let out a series of shrill wails, as if it was frightened by a powerful force and could not move forward at all.

But the black fog did not give up. It surged wildly, trying to find the flaws in the protective shield.

However, is Xinghan's star power so easy to be cracked? He stood outside the protective shield, staring at the movement of the black fog, ready to deal with any possible changes at any time.

Finally, when the black fog launched another fierce attack in an attempt to break through the protective shield, Xinghan took action.

Xinghan let out a low roar, and at the same time, the spiritual energy in his body surged wildly.

The stars in the sky seemed to respond to his call, gathering into a brilliant light. That was his most proud skill -

Falling stars.

As he shouted angrily, the ray of light cut through the night sky like a falling meteor, and with the power to destroy the world, it hit the black mist fiercely.

With a loud bang, the black mist was torn apart by the light of the stars, emitting bursts of shrill wails, and finally dissipated into nothingness.

The courtyard returned to tranquility again, but a hint of anxiety and uneasiness still lingered in the air.

Shen Li slowly opened her eyes at Xinghan's call, with a hint of surprise and gratitude in her eyes.

She looked at Xinghan and saw him standing there, his clothes slightly disheveled, beads of sweat oozing from his forehead, but his eyes were full of determination and fearlessness.

She understood that it was Xinghan who rescued her at the critical moment and saved her from an unknown disaster.

"Xinghan, thank you." Shen Li's voice was soft and sincere. She stood up and walked towards Xinghan. Their eyes met at this moment, as if there were thousands of words to say without needing to be said.

"It's okay, as long as you're fine." Xinghan responded with a smile.

Xingyun moved at the sound, almost jumping out of the room, and ran to the center of the courtyard with an anxious look on his face. His eyes swept back and forth between Shen Li and Xinghan, obviously still in fear of the crisis that had just happened.

He stopped abruptly, but started coughing violently due to his rapid breathing, and each cough seemed to involve all the strength in his body.

"Xinghan, are you okay? Are you hurt?"

Xingyun asked anxiously while coughing, his tone full of concern and worry. When he calmed down a little, he turned his gaze to Shen Li, and his brows could not help but frowned slightly.

"Shen Li, it's all your fault! If you hadn't removed the formation, how could my father be in danger? If something happened..."

Hearing this, Shen Li gently opened her eyes, with a hint of apology and self-blame flashing in her eyes.

She was about to explain but was gently interrupted by Xinghan.

"Xingyun, dear, don't blame Shen Li. She had to practice and comprehend better in human form in order to return to her original place as soon as possible."

Xinghan said, walking to Xingyun and patting him on the back to comfort him.

"Also, this time it was my negligence. I noticed the unusual movement, but unfortunately I didn't notice the existence of the black fog in advance. However, fortunately, everything is over and none of us were injured."

Upon hearing this, Xingyun was still a little frightened, but he nodded to show his understanding.

He tried to calm himself down, then looked at Xinghan and Shen Li, with a determined light in his eyes.

"We can't go on like this. We must think of a way to ensure that Shen Li can practice with peace of mind while effectively resisting external threats." Xingyun said seriously and began to think about countermeasures.

Xinghan pondered for a moment, and a gleam of light flashed in his eyes. "I have an idea. We can try to create a new formation - the Star Guardian Formation.

This formation can not only use the power of the stars to form a powerful protective shield to protect Shen Li from external interference, but also automatically counterattack when the enemy invades to ensure our safety. "

When Shen Li heard this, a hint of curiosity and expectation flashed in her eyes. She stood up, walked to Xinghan and Xingyun, and listened carefully to their discussion.

"Star Guardian Formation? It sounds great." Shen Li nodded in agreement. "However, how should this formation be arranged? What materials are needed? And how can the power of the stars be mobilized?"

Xinghan smiled and said confidently, "I have already thought about all of this. First, we need to find some special materials that can absorb and store the power of the stars, such as star stones, moonlight grass, etc. Then, we can design the specific layout and activation method of the formation according to the trajectory and power distribution of the stars. As for how to mobilize the power of the stars, it requires the three of us to work together, through meditation and spiritual power guidance, to introduce the power of the stars into the formation to form a powerful protective force."

After listening to Xinghan's explanation, Xingyun and Shenli both smiled knowingly.

"Then let's go look for it tomorrow. There is a mountain not far from this yard." Xingyun said.

The next morning, the sunlight filtered through the gaps in the leaves, casting mottled shadows, adding a bit of mystery and anticipation to their adventure.

Xinghan was responsible for the grouping. Based on the principle of "more contact for young people", Xinghan decided to help adults achieve their goals.

Let Shen Li and Xingyun form a team and follow the mountain trails, carefully searching for traces of star stones and moonlight grass, with the focus on moonlight grass.

Xingyun also said, "There are many rare and precious plants growing on this mountain. Even a fool can figure out some of the tricks. Why don't I form a group on my own? This way, I won't have to be a burden."

Xinghan patted Xingyun on the shoulder and said, "Young man, you are not in good health, don't show off. Although Miss Shen is a girl, she is more powerful than you! At the critical moment, she can help you. You should be more polite and have more contact with her."

If we get in touch, he can at least act as a matchmaker, right?

"Let's go, the master of Xingyun Courtyard, Senior Brother Xingyun!" Shen Li folded his arms across his chest, holding the Qingtian Zhan and set off.
