Chen Nianzhi looked at the Star Ring Ancient Bell with a calm expression. Heavenly Wind's desire to claim it had been within his expectations.
After all, the Star Ring Bell was a heaven-opening supreme treasure. Though it had been heavily damaged and left incomplete, it was still the most precious of all the treasures.
If Heavenly Wind could one day restore it, then with this treasure protecting him, his confidence in surviving the tribulation and breaking through to Earth Immortal would likely increase by more than thirty percent.
Yet for Chen Nianzhi, this treasure was not indispensable.
Chen Nianzhi had the Yin-Yang Two-Poles Pearls to protect him, and their power might not be much inferior to that of the Star Ring Bell.
Though the Star Ring Bell was astonishingly valuable, the resources needed to restore it would be equally vast.
Heavenly Wind had established his lineage for over a million years, and Wind-Mist Island had accumulated an incomparably profound foundation. Perhaps he had some chance of restoring it.
But with the Chen Clan's current foundation, they would likely need another two or three hundred thousand years of accumulation before they could possibly restore it. That span of time was simply too long.
Thus, from the very beginning, Chen Nianzhi had not intended to choose it.
He nodded slightly and said frankly, "Among these six treasures, the Star Ring Bell is the most precious."
"If you take it, then the remaining treasures should belong to me."
Heavenly Wind frowned, then bargained, "The Starfruit and the Three Thousand Stars are of little use to me, but leave me one portion of the Source of Stars."
"Agreed."
Chen Nianzhi nodded. He understood that Heavenly Wind wanted a portion of the Source of Stars to increase his chances of restoring the Star Ring Ancient
