Chapter 240 Crisis Arrives

"I don't want to look for Qin Xu's whereabouts."

"There are better opportunities here now."

A high-ranking Immortal King looked up at the Heart of Life.

In his view, the heart of life is more important.

"I want to stay too."

"My lifespan is running out, and I must use the Heart of Life to live another life."

“That’s right. The Heart of Life can add thousands or tens of thousands of years to our lifespan, which is more important to us.”

About twenty high-ranking Immortal Kings chose to stay.

However, most of the high-ranking Immortal Kings still wanted to go to the Azure Cloud Tower to search for Qin Xu's whereabouts.

Because they believed that obtaining the Heart of Life would be useless.

If they obtain the Heart of Life.

Once they leave Qingyun Palace, they will only become targets for a group of peak Immortal King cultivators.

That is precisely why.

They would rather give up their lives.

Moreover, the treasures Qin Xu possessed were even more tempting to them.

"Alright, then you can stay here."

The Plum Blossom Immortal King frowned.

He saw that his martial uncles had all stayed behind.

However, he didn't have much of an opinion.

After all, his uncle was nearing the end of his life and truly needed the Heart of Life.

Then, most of the high-ranking Immortal Kings formed a team and flew rapidly towards the location of the Azure Cloud Tower.

After they leave.

The remaining high-ranking Immortal Kings all displayed their supernatural abilities and flew towards the sky above the Wutong Divine Tree.

However, they had only flown a short distance when they were struck by the death energy.

Rumble!

Clusters of death energy, as if possessing their own consciousness, surged towards these high-ranking immortal kings, covering the sky and the earth.

"Hmph, you think you can hurt me with just a little death energy?"

Endless golden light emanated from the body of a high-ranking Immortal King.

It actually withstood the erosion of death energy.

But the next moment.

His expression changed drastically, and he exclaimed in surprise, "Even my spiritual energy shield can't completely withstand it?"

The spiritual energy shield he had condensed was broken by the death energy in less than ten breaths.

The deathly aura released by the sacred parasol tree was extremely terrifying.

Even the protective measures of a high-level Immortal King are insufficient to completely resist the invasion of death energy.

"Only by using some talismans or magical artifacts can we possibly resist the death aura for a period of time."

"Luckily, I brought a protective magical artifact with me, which I can use now."

"Haha, fellow Daoists, I'm going up first."

Some high-ranking Immortal Kings were prepared in advance.

Someone took out a protective magical artifact.

Someone took out talismans or array plates.

All sorts of methods are available.

Their methods can barely withstand the death aura for a period of time.

Of course, they knew time was limited.

They must get to the top of the sacred parasol tree as soon as possible and retrieve the Heart of Life.

Otherwise, if their defenses are breached while they are near the tree canopy, they could very well lose their lives.

"Alas, it seems the Heart of Life is going to be taken away."

At this moment, there was no high-level Immortal King nearby Bai Feng and Long Yun.

It was obvious that these high-level Immortal Kings never intended to target Bai Feng from the beginning.

They simply wanted to find out Qin Xu's location from Bai Feng.

Where Qin Xu is now is no secret.

Therefore, they will no longer think about dealing with Bai Feng and Long Yun.

"If the heart of life is taken away."

"Can the sacred parasol tree last for six months?"

Long Yun sighed inwardly. He and Bai Feng were both imperial princes from ancient times, and he had visited the Phoenix Nest when he was a child, so he had a deep understanding of the Phoenix Clan.

He knew the significance of the sacred parasol tree to Bai Feng.

However, he was also helpless.

After all, those who went up to compete for the Heart of Life were all high-level Immortal Kings.

Even if Bai Feng and Long Yun obtain the opportunity to become low-level Immortal Kings, they may not be a match for these high-level Immortal Kings.

......

Outside the Qingyun Palace.

The powerful figures hidden in the void were all staring at the light screen where the Phoenix Nest was located.

"The heart of life!"

"I wonder who will get it?"

"Hehe, no matter who gets it, as long as they bring out the Heart of Life, I'll definitely snatch it away immediately!"

Many powerful individuals have just arrived from various places.

Their eyes burned with fervor as they gazed upon the heart of life.

The stronger a person is, the more they desire the Heart of Life.

Especially for some peak Immortal King cultivators who have no hope of breaking through and whose lifespan is nearing its end.

They yearn even more for the heart of life.

"Thirty-two high-ranking Immortal Kings."

"Among them are many outstanding high-level Immortal Kings."

"Xu'er is in big trouble!"

Qin Tianlong did not pay attention to the Heart of Life.

Now he is completely devoted to Qin Xu and Liu Rushuang.

When he saw high-ranking Immortal Kings flying towards Qin Xu's location, he felt endless worry.

Qin Tianlong was genuinely worried.

If only these high-ranking immortal kings could find his son.

I'm afraid his son's life is in danger.

Perhaps the human cultivators wouldn't dare to attack Qin Xu.

However, the high-ranking immortal kings of the demon and monster races would definitely want to kill Qin Xu.

"Neither the Sun Demon King nor the Battle Axe Demon King are weak."

Liu Wushuang said softly, "If Xu'er were to use the arrow he is preparing to deal with the Sun Demon King, it might be able to destroy him."

Qin Tianlong gave a wry smile.

"Even if we could kill the Blazing Sun Demon King, so what?"
