Neurons could, to a certain extent, also be regarded as a kind of cell. It was merely that their structure differed slightly from that of other cells.

When Li Pin focused his mind and delved deep into sensing the transmission of countless electronic signals between the neurons in his brain, a vast network, as immense as the universe itself, appeared within his perception.

No!

At that moment, what came to his mind was that boundless, immeasurable universe.

The brilliance, prosperity, and splendor woven by the transmission of signals between signals gave him, observing the brain's structure in such depth for the first time, an inexpressible shock.

Just as when people first gazed up at the starry sky and imagined the universe.

The human brain possessed tens of billions of neurons, while the observable cosmic web contained hundreds of billions of galaxies. In a sense, the two belonged to the same order of magnitude.

Whether the human brain or the universe, the matter that truly played an active role accounted for only a small portion.

Eighty percent of the human brain was water. It provided crucial support, but it was not the source of signals.

Eighty percent of the starry universe was dark matter. It could not be seen, yet it supplied gravity and energy, binding cosmic matter together.

The arrangements of the two structures were strikingly similar. Without exception, both took the form of networks. The nodes in the human brain were neurons, while the nodes in the cosmic structure were galaxies, and the nodes were connected by filament-like structures.

Compared to those filaments, the nodes of both appeared extraordinarily small.

The exchange of energy and information between nodes accounted for only one-fifth of the entire system's energy and mass.

There were many more similarities of this kind.

Furthermore, Li
