From Under One Person: Sincere Journey Through the Heavens

Mana was aware of this secret, but only when Mark's consciousness truly opened its heart to her and revealed it could she fully understand him, completely connect with his mind, and distort and assimilate it.

Five years had passed by the time Mark had only this one secret left, and the crystal had not left a trace.

"what!"

Another forty-nine minutes passed, and the monster arrived as expected, its slow and heavy steps sending shivers down Mark's spine.

But Mark didn't turn back. In the moment his consciousness dissipated, he threw a final punch at the crystal.

Boom!

Crystal Wall —

It remains intact.

The golden headband shone brightly, and Mark's consciousness reunited at the starting point. Without the slightest hesitation, ignoring the monster's pace, he quickly ran to the fork in the road and chose another path.

Upon reaching the exit, Mark also realized something: this ditch maze has six areas: Amusement Park Castle, Penrose Land, Noisy Mountains, Mana Plain, Abandoned City, and Twenty-Four Towers, which correspond to the frontal lobe, parietal lobe, occipital lobe, temporal lobe, limbic system, and cerebellum of the right brain.

These six intersections correspond to these six areas!

If you choose the initial fork in the road, which leads from the amusement park castle to Penrose, you must reveal a secret within the passage.

But the final secret must never be revealed, so Mark must choose a different path...

Chapter 1256 Love spanning four and a half billion years!

The once desolate labyrinth of trenches has become full of "life" because of the secrets and facts revealed by Mark.

The laughter and joy at the amusement park became increasingly captivating, and Ran Bing's personality became more and more genuine...

The landscape of Penrose gradually transformed from mountains and rivers into a series of stepped buildings...

The sounds of the mountains and rivers gradually became clearer, and even beautiful singing could be heard...

The blood moon over the Mana Plains gradually faded, and the Mana flowers covering the ground slowly transformed into daisies...

The Devouring Beasts within the ruined city gradually transformed from six-limbed crawling to upright walking, and the city regained its former glory...

The twenty-four towers transformed from pitch black to a futuristic white, resembling a jade pillar supporting the sky...

But Mark didn't stop. Even though the voices around him kept telling him things like, "Stay, don't run anymore. If you're willing to stay and choose to live in this beautiful world, that monster won't chase you anymore," he kept running.

A beautiful illusion could not tempt his will!

Because it is in that cruel reality that the real Ran Bing exists!

Because there were no other secrets or truths to tell, Mark could no longer get forty-nine minutes of rest. As a result, before he even reached the Twenty-Four Towers, he was caught by the monster in the ruined city and his consciousness dissipated.

But Mark was not discouraged. With the help of the golden headband, his consciousness reunited, and he ran again. This time, he broke through his limits and ran to the edge of the Twenty-Four Towers.

Failure after failure!

Progress after progress!

Between the disintegration and reorganization of consciousness, Mark's spirit did not grow stronger, but rather more refined. This was reflected in the outward appearance of his conscious form: his figure became smaller and his face softer...

After ten thousand years in this eternal space, his spirit finally condensed enough to be able to come to that crystal wall again.

Boom!

Just one punch.

The monster had already arrived behind Mark, and just as he was about to throw his second punch, it grabbed him and disintegrated him.

Mark's spirit was even more concentrated after the reunion, but he didn't stop. He ran again and came to the crystal wall once more.

Boom!

It was still one punch.

Then he was caught up by the monster and his consciousness was disintegrated.

Each time Mark embarks on a long journey, he can only throw one punch, but he enjoys it immensely because eternity lasts only a second.

He'll be able to get out in a second!

In the blink of an eye.

Millions of years have passed.

As Mark was being dismembered by the monster once again, he caught a glimpse of the crystal wall dented into an arc out of the corner of his eye.

Very small.

So small that it is almost undetectable even under a microscope.

But as a wisp of consciousness, Mark sensed it and smiled—

This crystal is not indestructible!

run!

Fist!

This situation continued for a hundred million years, and Mark's size grew smaller and smaller, and a dent appeared in the crystal wall.

Over a billion years, the crater grew to the size of a human body.

Two billion years later, the pit has reached a depth of about half a meter.

Three billion years have passed, and the crater is now large enough for three people to crawl into.

Four and a half billion years have passed, and Mark can now see the general situation on the other side through the crystal. Although it is hazy, he can vaguely make out the outline of Ran Bing.

In that instant, he recalled all his past experiences, those brief moments, which now felt so pure to him.

At that very moment, Mark saw a radiance shimmering like the sun beside Ran Bing, just like a blazing star.

"what is that?"

The long passage of time had made him almost forget everything from the past, but he soon realized that it was Jiang Liu! Boss Jiang! He must have discovered his condition and transferred his power into his consciousness!

But only a second passed in the outside world, while he waited for a full 4.5 billion years!

"Roar!"

Mark roared to the sky, his spirit condensed once more, and his original form as a Devouring Beast completely dissipated, returning him to his original human appearance. The golden headband on his head also quietly disappeared.

He glanced at Ran Bing behind him, who had "embraced" him for 4.5 billion years. Mark's consciousness erupted with a dazzling light, and the power of his mind was completely condensed at this moment, gathering between his fists. He punched the crystal wall!

"There is a diamond mountain. It takes an hour to climb over it and an hour to go around it. Every hundred years, a little bird flies over and sharpens its beak on the diamond mountain. When the entire diamond mountain is worn flat, the eternal second has just passed."

Outside the Kloto system, Jiang Liu smiled and uttered the following words.

Jing Nan was puzzled, but then he saw the Klotor system suddenly tremble.

Then.

Mark, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground, opened his eyes. A glimmer of light burst forth from his pupils, burning fiercely and instantly spreading throughout his eyes, dyeing them a brilliant gold.

Under the shocked gazes of Jingnan and Flynn, Mark's body slowly shrank, his dark skin turned white, and his tail gradually shortened, transforming him back into his original human form.

A second that lasts forever!

Four and a half billion years!

Through trials and tribulations, Mark forged his own unique spiritual light with love, refined a bit of Dharma nature, and transformed it into his true Dharma body. The body of the Devouring Beast became his reward body, while his current human form became his manifestation body.

The Dharmakaya, Sambhogakaya, and Nirmanakaya are united as one. In terms of spiritual attainment, he is already a Bodhisattva, but he is probably the weakest Bodhisattva in the history of all the heavens and myriad realms.

This is because the majestic and enjoyable "reward body" of this Bodhisattva Mark is only about one zhang in size.

Because of his shrunken size, the clothes he was wearing were no longer suitable, so Jiang Liu took out a set of clothes and put them on him in an instant, saying, "Four hundred and five billion years of reincarnation have forged a bit of spiritual light. You've gained quite a bit."

Upon hearing this, Mark raised an eyebrow and asked, "You know everything?"

Jiang Liu removed the golden headband from Mark's head, stored it in his golden core, and said leisurely, "Actually, you could have agreed to her from the beginning."

As long as the golden headband is still on your head, your consciousness will not be distorted or assimilated.

Once she completely merges with your consciousness, I can transfer the golden headband from your consciousness to hers, binding her in place…”

mark:"???"

However, he also knew that after connecting with the right brain of Mana's original body, she could read his thoughts. If he knew this secret, she would definitely be on guard.

"...But I never expected that your love for Ran Bing would be so profound, transforming your spirit into spiritual power and awakening the light of your soul."

Jiang Liu was amazed and gave him a thumbs-up, exclaiming, "Incredible!"

"So, have you successfully bound her consciousness now?" Mark asked quietly after a long silence.

"nature."

Jiang Liu smiled slightly, "When you open your heart to her and tell her all your secrets and understanding, you are also subtly transferring the golden headband on your consciousness to hers..."

Chapter 1257 Zhang Zhiwei: You don't need to help me cultivate! Really, you don't need to!

What are you talking about?

Jingnan and Flynn were completely baffled.

Two beams of light shot out from the river, entering between their brows, allowing them to instantly understand Mark's experiences within the Clotho system, as if watching a movie.

The Galifreians' Confession Compass Technology...

A punch that lasted for 4.5 billion years...

Jingnan, regaining her senses, stared at Mark in disbelief—

She knew Mark had an extremely strong will in the past, but now she has come to know Mark's powerful spirit even more.

Four and a half billion years!

The Earth's history is but a fleeting moment!

If she were connected to Clotho's brain, let alone 4.5 billion years, even if she persisted for a hundred years, she would probably become a madwoman. Moreover, there is a greater possibility that she would be immersed in the "amusement park castle" area constructed by Mana's original right brain and completely become a part of him.

Even dealing with her ordinary human will wouldn't require the use of that labyrinthine maze; a single mental shock would be enough to shatter her consciousness.

"How will that ideological golden hoop affect Cloton's consciousness?" Jingnan asked.

“It will completely merge ASH with her consciousness, with ASH taking the lead, and humanity will have leverage over her.” As he spoke, Jiang Liu looked at Mark.
