In the end, Chen Nan still didn't call him "uncle," and even after being beaten black and blue, he still didn't give in.
After all, being defeated is already humiliating enough. If he were to submit to the other party and call him "uncle," he would probably be kicked out of his family by his father and become a laughing stock in the entire Huaxia.
After the beating went on, Chen Zhan, who was above, couldn't stand it anymore and waved his hand to pull his son back.
At the same time, Wang Hao discreetly collected a drop of blood from his nose on the surface of his fist, hidden in his sleeve.
The Chen Clan Profound Art are bound to the Chen Clan's bloodline, especially the Chen Nan lineage.
If one forcibly cultivates the Chen Clan Profound Art without the bloodline of the Chen Clan, one will only be devoured by the demonic shadows generated by the art. Therefore, the fundamental secret of the Chen Clan Profound Art still lies in the other party's bloodline.
In addition, the Chen Clan Profound Art has a mysterious connection with the weapons and treasures transformed from several supreme array totems in the ancient mythological era. In the later stages of cultivation, it can even evolve into Projection of several supreme treasures.
Wang Hao had a great interest in several supreme treasures, including the Hou Yi Bow, and naturally wanted to study them carefully.
" Little Nanzi, have you forgotten something?"
Standing on the battle platform, Wang Hao smiled as he looked at Chen Nan, who was standing behind Chen Zhan and had been beaten black and blue.
Chen Nan, who was grimacing as he used Hou Yi Bow to heal the injuries on his face, twitched his swollen lips. Although unwilling, he finally separated the Hou Yi Bow, which had been integrated into his body, and threw it to Wang Hao.
Having made a promise in public, Chen Nan would never break his word.
Moreover, it wasn't like they directly gave Hou Yi Bow to that guy; they just let him study it for a month.
Although the Hou Yi Bow hides a shocking secret, only members of the Chen Clan can unlock it. Even if others obtain it, they will find it difficult to refine, let alone comprehend its mysteries.
" Nan'er, you will be in charge of accompanying Brother Dugu for the next month. Show him around the capital and make sure he has a good time. Don't neglect him!"
Chen Zhan spoke up at this moment. Although his son had lost the Hou Yi Bow for a month, he didn't think it was a big deal.
You must know that he has now completely refined the Hou Yi Bow. Even if a Heaven Tier expert were to take the Hou Yi Bow, it would be difficult to seize it. He could summon it back with a single thought.
However, to avoid unnecessary trouble, it's best to take some precautions.
Wang Hao had no objection to this; in fact, he was quite pleased.
He naturally understood the implication in Chen Zhan's words: he wanted Chen Zhan to stay in the Carefree King Manor for a month until he returned the Hou Yi Bow.
He didn't care; on the contrary, he could take this opportunity to get closer to Yu Xin and thus activate a side quest.
After all, the lack of Fortune Points really prevented him from playing freely, and he was even reluctant to use the system's Dao Comprehension Function. He had to find a stable source of Fortune Points.
The rest was simple. Wang Hao directly asked Great Emperor Li Daozong of Huaxia for the chosen fiefdom, which would be the key to his future plans.
After all, he couldn't complete the mission alone; he needed a large number of powerful underlings to assist him, so having a powerful faction was essential.
To cultivate a force, you must have a base of influence; otherwise, you can't develop anything without territory!
The next reward was a three-day tour of the Great Qin Dynasty's imperial armory.
I knew you guys would resort to such low-level tricks!
Upon entering the Huaxia imperial armory, looking at the countless bookshelves arranged haphazardly, the numerous unmarked books inside, and the spirit jade bearing the imprint of inheritance, Wang Hao curled his lip in disdain.
Based on Chen Nan's previous actions of wielding the Hou Yi Bow in battle, Wang Hao understood that this Young Heaven's Chosen Tournament was actually prepared for Chen Nan. Even someone as strong as Dongfang Changming would inevitably be no match for Chen Nan, who possessed the Hou Yi Bow.
Therefore, the champion's reward was just talk. It's likely that Chen Nan, who possesses the Chen Clan's heritage, wouldn't bother wasting his time in a place like the Huaxia Imperial Armory.
However, his sudden emergence disrupted the plans of the Huaxia Empire.
The Huaxia imperial family is truly stingy; in order to prevent themselves from obtaining the truly top-tier inherited martial arts techniques in the armory, they actually rearranged the positions of these classic texts.
Without guidance, finding the necessary inheritance among the vast sea of countless books would be extremely difficult, let alone with only three days to spare.
If this happened to anyone else, they would definitely have to accept defeat, but Wang is no ordinary person.
With his hands behind his back, Wang Hao activated his Heavenly Eye and strolled leisurely through the armory, merely glancing at the books on the shelves without any intention of opening them for reading.
Since he already possesses the ability to see through things, why would he bother to flip through the books? He can simply glance at them and, combining his Divine Sense and the ability of his Heavenly Eye, imprint the contents of those ancient texts into his mind.
Of course, the difficulty of such high-level operations is quite astonishing. At least it is impossible to cultivate such a strong person based solely on the limits of the Human Realm. Only Wang Hao, who transmigrated with his True Spirit Will and whose own realm is powerful, can do this.
In less than a day, Wang Hao walked out of the armory with a cold face, looking as if someone owed him money.
"This kid at least has some self-awareness!"
Not long after Wang Hao left, the two old men suddenly appeared at the entrance of the armory, stroking their beards and chuckling as they watched Wang Hao leave.
The disruption of the numerous books in the armory was their doing, with the aim of minimizing the amount of top-tier inheritances that the boy could obtain.
After all, the many classic texts in the armory are the foundation of their Great Qin royal family. Previously, it was only to attract forces from all over the world to hold this unprecedented Young Heaven's Chosen Tournament, so as to show the majesty of their Huaxia Empire and pave the way for Chen Nan, the heir of the Carefree King.
But who would have thought that a dark horse would emerge halfway through, even defeating Chen Nan, who wielded Hou Yi Bow, causing a lapse in their plans.
Fortunately, the kid was smart enough to come out in less than a day.
Unfortunately, the two Huaxia retainers were unaware that Wang Hao's previous expression was merely an act, intended to mislead them and avoid unnecessary trouble.
In fact, Wang Hao's approach was correct. After learning that Wang Hao had left the armory with a grim expression in less than a day, many people in the Huaxia Palace breathed a sigh of relief.
After all, that prodigy was different from ordinary people. His Nine Secrets: Dou was heaven-defying, capable of copying all ultimate skills. Even the Ten Heaven-Splitting Strikes and the Eight Heavenly Demon Steps were copied by him.
Although the opponent had not previously displayed the Heaven-Destroying Hand technique, everyone understood that Wang Hao Heaven-Destroying Hand very likely already secretly learned it.
With such a heaven-defying secret technique in hand, it would be a real disaster if one were to obtain the many ultimate skills in the armory.
Holding the token given to him by Chen Zhan yesterday, Wang Hao walked out of the Huaxia Imperial Palace and went straight to the Carefree King Manor.
Since Chen Zhan had made it clear that he wanted him to stay at the Carefree King Manor, he naturally wouldn't go looking for trouble by wandering around aimlessly.
Not to mention, according to his senses just now, quite a few Sixth Tier experts had come to the Listening to Rain Pavilion, who should all be high-ranking members of the Six Primordial Evil Daos.
Clearly, the effect of stealing the Ten Heaven-Splitting Strikes from Dongfang Changming was extraordinary, finally making the Six Primordial Evil Daos realize the value of the Nine Secrets: Dou and even all Nine Secrets.
With these powerful but unorthodox individuals present, there's no guarantee they won't become interested in Hou Yi Bow.
He wasn't afraid of those people trying to steal Hou Yi Bow, but he didn't want Chen Zhan to have an excuse to take Hou Yi Bow back prematurely, otherwise he would suffer a huge loss.
" Dugu..."
Having been notified in advance, Chen Nan stood at the main gate of the Carefree King Manor. Upon seeing Wang Hao arrive, he cupped his hands in welcome, but before he could even open his mouth, Wang Hao retorted, causing his face to darken.
"Call me Uncle!"
Wang Hao maintained his usual Youyou tone; teasing the protagonist now and then was quite amusing.
Since he had already come into Chen Zhan's sights and was bound to be noticed by some cunning old foxes, it was no longer possible for him to develop stealthily. Wang Hao naturally adjusted his mindset accordingly.
Let alone teasing Chen Nan, the protagonist destined for Heavenly Mandate, he wouldn't hesitate to beat him up without the slightest hesitation.
"Please!"
With a dark expression, Chen Nan, gritted his teeth, and gestured for Wang Hao to come in.
There was no other way; his family's heirloom Hou Yi Bow, was in this guy's hands, and he had to keep a close eye on it for the next month.
Upon arriving at the courtyard that Chen Nan had arranged, Wang Hao glanced around and discovered that he was living right next to Chen Nan, while Yu Xin lived in the courtyard across the street.
Ignoring Chen Nan and Yu Xin, Wang Hao arrived at the courtyard prepared for him and immediately announced that he would be going into seclusion to study the Hou Yi Bow.
After all, it's best to understand the secrets of such a treasure as soon as possible, lest things get complicated and unexpected problems arise.
However, before studying Hou Yi Bow, Wang Hao first began to study the drop of blood from Chen Nan that he had obtained earlier.
Because Chen Zhan was present at the time, in order to avoid being noticed by the other party, Wang Hao secretly preserved a small drop of Chen Nan's blood.
This was also the main reason why he wanted to beat up Chen Nan in the first place; otherwise, it would have been difficult to find an excuse to get Chen Nan's blood.
"Madmen, they're all a bunch of madmen!"
With the blessing of activating the Dao Comprehension Function by consuming Fortune Points, Wang Hao Insight all the secrets of the Chen Clan bloodline in less than three days, and then kept cursing the madman in his heart.
The Chen Clan is truly insane. They have actually integrated the bloodline essence of seven Heaven-Defying Level powerhouses into their own bloodline. Combined with the bloodline they inherited from Chen Old Devil, that makes eight different bloodline powers.
Furthermore, these bloodline powers are passed down to future generations. While this greatly enhances the potential of their offspring, it also sows the seeds of fatal dangers. If one is not careful, they may be possessed by the many fundamental imprints within their bloodline.
At the same time, he also understood the essence of the Chen Clan Profound Art. He thought that the Chen Clan's practice of their family's profound skills, especially the part that reversed the transformation of profound skills into demonic energy, must have been out of necessity.
Only by reversing the transformation of Xuan Gong into demonic energy can the bloodline imprint of Chen Old Devil be activated to the maximum extent, thereby using Chen Old Devil's power to suppress other primal imprints.
Otherwise, it would be impossible to suppress the numerous primal imprints within one's bloodline, and even going into qi deviation would be the least of one's worries.
This is truly an extremely crazy approach; no normal person would do something like this. It's no wonder the Chen Clan has been able to survive for so long—it's truly a miracle.
Shaking his head, Wang Hao turned to practicing the modified Chen Clan Profound Art.
Although the Chen Clan bloodline and the Chen Clan Profound Art are both considered madness, they are also undeniably an extremely exquisite and powerful inheritance, which has brought considerable inspiration to Wang Hao.
Based on the Chen Clan Profound Art, Wang Hao further improved his own cultivation techniques, so he now needs to start cultivating again.
At the same time, to unlock the secrets of Hou Yi Bow, one must possess the power of the Chen Clan Profound Art, so this step is indispensable.
