Everyone present was slightly stunned upon hearing this.
They had originally thought this would be a fierce battle, yet they had never expected Chen Nianzhi to give up the Hongmeng Origin Essence so easily.
This left them puzzled, but they did not dwell on it. After all, the Hongmeng Origin Essence was enough to exchange for an opportunity to break through into the Dao Integration realm.
Thus, they did not hesitate and immediately agreed to Chen Nianzhi's proposal. The Nine-Dragon Nest Master directly said, "Since that is the case, then we agree."
Chen Nianzhi nodded slightly at this. The Hongmeng Origin Essence was indeed incomparably precious to others, but it was not indispensable to him.
Rather than fight the five of them over the Hongmeng Origin Essence, it was better to save the time and explore several more ancient halls.
After all, these five were no weaklings. If Chen Nianzhi wanted to take them down, he would need to spend quite some time, and might not even be able to keep them all behind.
By then, they would very likely side with Chiyang Supreme and the others instead, bringing Chen Nianzhi needless trouble.
The cost did not match the reward, so naturally Chen Nianzhi had no intention of competing with them for the Hongmeng Origin Essence.
Seeing that everyone had agreed, Chen Nianzhi did not hesitate. He directly activated his divine ability, pierced through the lotus platforms on either side, and took the Heavenly Heart Divine Liquid and Azure Emperor Immortal-Binding Rope from atop them.
After taking the treasures, Chen Nianzhi did not linger in the slightest and directly left the Azure Emperor Immortal Hall.
The five Heavenly Emperors left behind watched Chen Nianzhi effortlessly take away two treasures, and their expressions abruptly changed as wariness surfaced in their eyes.
