[Those who follow the Dao have no soul, no body, and not even substantial energy; their entire being is composed of the "Dao," making them even more virtual than a virtual AI program formed from a piece of code.]

However, these beings, composed of various Dao principles, are in some ways even more intelligent than many real living beings, possessing the same capacity for thought and logical reasoning!

The simple neuron you implanted has no effect on Daoist beings because it is a pure brain cell, untainted by any thought.

However, when it exists in a woman's mind, it is influenced by her thoughts over time—or more accurately, not thoughts, but the thought processes and operational logic of a being governed by Dao principles.

You build the brain structure step by step, composed of neurons and various glial cells, and then add synapses and so on between them...

At the same time, let her gradually diminish the principles related to thinking and memory within herself, smoothly replacing them.

[Thus, she gradually transformed from a purely Dao-based being into a real being, like a robot gaining a soul, like a stone acquiring flesh and blood.]

The final product is completely different from the original person, but if that period is extended to more than two years and broken down into countless small steps... she has hardly changed.

Two and a half years later, you emerge from the Source of Light Soup with a woman whose entire being has been replaced with biological tissue.

She was no longer a being governed by the laws of nature, but a fully-fledged human being.
