Chapter 899 476: Secrets of Modern and Ancient Methods, the Three Marvels

The plan of Qing Feng and Ming Yue has been running smoothly, and Gu Shanhai only lets the Four Sacred Beasts System monitor.

Moreover, there is Little White to serve as a forceful suppression, making up for the lack of strength of the force itself.

Don't underestimate Little White, who usually acts as both a mount and a little helper in daily life, but has undergone considerable education. In terms of combat, it is assisted by the Four Sacred Beasts System, with a corresponding battle model. Whether it is technique or experience in a fight, it is extremely powerful.

It's equivalent to carrying a battle database around.

What's more, besides being an animal companion, Little White was once the mount of the Green Knight, specializing in warfare.

"The effect of the Absorption Point is finally beginning to diminish; I thought this thing would persist stubbornly with me." Gu Shanhai's spirits lifted; he wasn't worried that the Absorption Point would change; he was more concerned it wouldn't change, which could negatively impact his experiment.

Because unchanging means the data hasn't changed at all, making it even harder for Gu Shanhai to complete it.

Diminishment might not be a good thing, but right now, for Gu Shanhai, it means he can gather more data.

"Judging by the current rate of diminishment, it'll completely disappear in a month, seemingly abandoned by the other side." Gu Shanhai quickly found the reason through data comparison.

"Looks like they're impatient; surprisingly, they couldn't even hold out for a year, canceling it after just four months."

"Analyzing the data, it's likely not a problem with the Absorption Point itself, but rather the entity behind the Absorption Point that couldn't wait any longer and actively canceled it."

"I wonder if they'll transfer the Absorption Point to another God Demon."

The other side is unlikely to give up so easily; they might switch to another God Demon to cause trouble.

"If that's the case, then I have to intensify my monitoring of the God Demons."

"But what method did they use to create the Absorption Point?"

Gu Shanhai, though knowing it was due to the new generation of God Demons using some unknown modern method to break through, resulting in this issue.

But the question was how the modern method influenced it.

He also performed a Soul Search on all the God Demons, acquiring all their memories, and after deep comparison, derived some data.

This data didn't provide much help, fortunately allowing Gu Shanhai to confirm that there were issues with breakthroughs using modern methods.

"The success rate of ancient methods to breakthrough God Demon is a hundred times lower than modern methods, not to mention they now cannot be compatible." Gu Shanhai felt a bit regretful.

Don't ask him why he knew they couldn't be compatible, because he had test subjects.

That's right, namely the Emperor Xuan, whom he crafted a copy of "Xuantian Treasure Record"; regardless of the carrier or content, it was entirely given to Emperor Xuan.

Emperor Xuan was smart enough to directly switch to cultivating the Three Strange Books.

If you only cultivate the Three Strange Books up to the Heavenly Human Unity Realm, there's actually no problem. But once you attempt to use the Three Strange Books to breakthrough to God Demon, the incompatibility will inevitably lead to failure.

Gu Shanhai wasn't intentionally trying to trap Emperor Xuan; he just hoped to create an Ancient Law Demon through Emperor Xuan, but the methods had already failed.

Yet it can be confirmed that if an ancient method is used to breakthrough as a God Demon, there won't be this disaster of God Demon calamity.

"A higher level entity altered some rules and used modern methods to mold them, turning God Demons into sustenance."

"But how do they ensure the output? Given God Demons' breakthrough probability, it's ridiculously low."

Gu Shanhai glanced at Emperor Xuan, who was still alive, just stuck in a limbo state.

He was now half God Demon and half human.

Gu Shanhai knew the sticking point was that Emperor Xuan needed to find a set of rules that matched his own in Nature's Way.

Once he found it, he'd become a God Demon; of course, this is the final and most critical step. Generally, most individuals in the Heavenly Human Unity Realm don't make it to this step, getting stuck in the earlier breakthrough steps.

Emperor Xuan reached this stage thanks entirely to Gu Shanhai's covert assistance; otherwise, given Emperor Xuan's condition, he would've failed the first step, suffering severe damage.

"In ancient methods, this step should have been the easiest, with plenty of rules in the world that can match Emperor Xuan's rules."

"Unfortunately, because of world problems, the rules couldn't respond, preventing him from successfully achieving glory and downfall with the world."

This is where the incompatibility lies, as the modified world does not allow any rule response, leading to the impossibility of successful synchronization with the world's fortunes.

Now Emperor Xuan has two options: either wait, risking being consumed by his own exhaustion.

Or decisively cut losses, exiting the breakthrough state, in which case he would be injured and depleted due to the backlash of the failed breakthrough.

Neither option is ideal.

Unless Gu Shanhai helps, otherwise don't expect to walk away unscathed; a price must be paid.

"There are quite a few pitfalls in this world." Gu Shanhai was somewhat helpless; he had no idea that the Ancient Three Strange Books would encounter issues here.

He had simulated it, and the content was fine, but the problem was with the world itself, which was absurd.

Anyone would be unable to anticipate it, considering it's neither the End of Dharma nor a peculiar immortal cultivation world.

"But the person intercepting was quite skilled, didn't tamper with the entire system, only tightened the screws."
