We Are Pioneers

For the past two weeks, Ian had indeed been studying the Silver Chip and "computing units" in the Void Realm at night.

Especially after the battle, Ian had gained three more Second Energy Level souls, all of which had reached the point where they could be converted into computing units.

Among them, "Snake Rock's soul" had even been converted into a larger "Standard Psionic Autonomous Computing Unit."

In other words, it did not need a "supply unit" to replenish itself and sustain its own existence.

This structure gave Ian an idea.

"Obviously, the computing units created through the Silver Chip possess a superior structure to the loose souls I naturally formed. I can indeed try transforming my own soul into a similar computational structure and enhance my soul's computing power!"

This was the correct conclusion.

On the first day Ian began modifying himself based on the autonomous computing unit, the changes were not obvious because he had converted very little of his soul structure.

But as time passed and Ian converted more of his soul, he could clearly feel his computational power increasing.

That was simply how souls worked. After someone at the Second Energy Level gradually condensed a soul through Origin Matter conversion, every process until the Third Energy Level was meant to continuously consolidate it into an ever sturdier structure.

Perhaps through conviction, or perhaps through will and ambition. In short, when a person's understanding of themselves reached a certain realm, when they possessed a clear, feasible conviction that they persevered in, a Soul Light Body would emerge.

At the same time, the soul's structure would become sturdier.

It was a mutually reinforcing process.

The reason Ian could alter his soul structure so easily was precisely because he had already reached that realm—he could twist the shape of
