Smart Brain Era—"Ten breaths..."
As he sensed this fragile clarity, a clear judgment instinctively surfaced in his heart.
The Qiankun Intelligent Brain's frail spirituality could not bear the fusion of his divine soul.
This meager spirituality could, at most, keep his consciousness lucid for ten breaths.
After ten breaths, the spiritual light would dim, and his consciousness would inevitably sink once more.
This sinking would continue until the Qiankun Intelligent Brain's spirituality reached the point where it could sustain the awakening of his consciousness.
Only then would he fully awaken and completely merge with the Qiankun Intelligent Brain.
Before that, he could only be said to have barely formed a connection with the Intelligent Brain.
He was no more than a wandering soul attached to that sliver of spirituality within the Qiankun Intelligent Brain.
This was what taking an unorthodox approach meant.
Once consciousness sank, life and death became impossible to predict.
He could only use a wisp of Spiritual Radiance to protect his true spirit from extinction, waiting for the Qiankun Intelligent Brain's spirituality to become strong enough to bear the fusion of his divine soul.
And throughout this waiting process, there would naturally be endless sinking.
Moreover, because he had no way of knowing how long this sinking would last—
He could not be certain whether this strand of Mortal Soul could avoid utterly dissipating within it.
And even if, one day, it reached the point where it could support his awakening, whether he could recover his Original Self would remain unknown.
After all, judging by the current Qiankun Spirituality, that span of time would be far too long.
Of course, most importantly, during this incomparably lengthy span of time, whether the order of the Real World would undergo changes beyond his plans was clearly also an unknown.
